Chapter 16 The Straightforward Xue Young Master

  • Jiang Weiyang felt incredibly unlucky.
  • She raised her hand and massaged her throbbing temple, helplessly looking at Gu Shang. "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, but you might have to let me go. My husband is back."
  • Gu Shang glanced at Jiang Weiyang in surprise, then looked at the imposing Xue Silu walking towards him. He smiled helplessly and carefully released Jiang Weiyang.
  • This scene infuriated Xue Silu.
  • He knew that Jiang Weiyang was a fickle woman! Even though he had misunderstood her identity before, the women from the Jiang family were all no good! Jiang Weiyang was just like Jiang Zhenzhen!
  • How long had it been? Jiang Weiyang was already flirting with another man!
  • He had worried that Jiang Weiyang hadn't followed him and was concerned about her injuries, so he specifically came back to find her. But as soon as he returned, he saw this woman leaning into another man's arms!
  • His face turned dark, he walked over and glanced at Jiang Weiyang, then coldly stared at Gu Shang. He grabbed Jiang Weiyang's arm and pulled her away.
  • Jiang Weiyang's face turned pale. The hand he grabbed happened to be the injured one. Xue Silu, consumed by anger, didn't notice this and held her with considerable force. He forcefully pulled her along, and Jiang Weiyang endured the pain, biting her lip and stubbornly following him without making a sound.
  • They walked all the way to the elevator door. When the elevator door opened, Xue Silu pushed her inside and let go of her hand. Jiang Weiyang slowly exhaled a breath and gently moved her hand.
  • It hurt.
  • At this moment, pain was the only sensation she had left.
  • Her shoulder hurt so much that she felt pain throughout half of her body.
  • She stood in the corner, taking small, deep breaths. Her face was extremely pale, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat. The back of her clothes was also soaked with sweat.
  • Xue Silu stood beside her, angry. The more he thought about Gu Shang's ambiguous posture when he held her, and how they seemed to be talking and laughing, the angrier he felt. But he didn't realize why he was angry in the first place.
  • "Jiang Weiyang, since you agreed to marry me, you must remember your identity. You are now Mrs. Xue, and your every word and action represents the Xue family. If I ever see you fooling around with other men, you will face the consequences!"
  • Xue Silü coldly glanced at Jiang Weiyang, his voice filled with resentment and threat.
  • Jiang Weiyang looked up at him, her face pale. "Xue Silü, your eyes only see what you want to see, without considering other factors to judge the truth, don't they?"
  • "What? Are you saying that I've wrongly accused you?" Xue Silü sneered, looking at Jiang Weiyang with a sense of irony.
  • Jiang Weiyang closed her eyes, not wanting to continue arguing with him over such a trivial matter.
  • After all, even if she explained, Xue Silü wouldn't believe her. They were just in a contractual relationship, not a real marriage. There was no need to explain everything too clearly.
  • Jiang Weiyang's attitude completely infuriated Xue Silü. He almost couldn't resist the urge to strangle her.
  • Seeing her indifferent attitude, Xue Silü took several deep breaths to barely suppress his anger.
  • Neither of them spoke to each other as the elevator descended. Soon, they arrived at the basement level, and the elevator doors opened. Xue Silü walked out first.
  • After taking a deep breath, Jiang Weiyang endured the pain and followed behind him, walking silently.
  • From then on, they didn't exchange a word. Jiang Weiyang sat in the back seat, looking out the window. The weather wasn't good today, cloudy, and it was about to rain heavily.
  • Her body was indeed in severe pain. Sitting in the wet car, the air conditioning made her feel cold. By the time they arrived at the Xue residence, Jiang Weiyang's consciousness was already unclear.
  • Xue Silü ignored her and went inside alone. After a while, he realized that no one was following him.
  • He was furious and turned back, angrily opening the car door. He looked at Jiang Weiyang sitting inside and coldly scolded, "What? Miss Jiang is so high-profile that I have to personally invite you to get off the car..."
  • Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Jiang Weiyang, who had been leaning against the seat, slumping towards him.
  • Almost reflexively, Xue Silü reached out to support her, but then he felt that his behavior was inappropriate. Subconsciously, he let go, but he sensitively noticed the high temperature of Jiang Weiyang's body. Just as he was about to release his hand, he suddenly tightened his grip and held her in his arms.
  • His face changed and he reached out to touch Jiang Weiyang's forehead, only to discover that this foolish woman had actually developed a high fever. No wonder she hadn't spoken a word the whole way and hadn't gotten off the car for half a day!
  • Xue Silü felt a tightness and annoyance in his chest. He carried her out of the car and looked at her face, which had an abnormal flush. After a long while, he suppressed his anger and carried her into the house. At the same time, he instructed the butler waiting on the side, "Call Pan Lichen and tell him to bring something to the Xue residence immediately."
  • After giving the instructions, he ascended the stairs.
  • Jiang Weiyang's body was burning hot, her small face flushed, and even the breath she exhaled was scorching.
  • Xue Silü, being a grown man, had never taken care of anyone before. Now, looking at Jiang Weiyang, he felt somewhat at a loss.
  • Jiang Weiyang was extremely uncomfortable, moaning and turning over, her whole body feeling cold and damp.
  • Xue Silü watched for a while before his face darkened. He reached out to help her remove the wet clothes from her body.
  • But just as he had unbuttoned two buttons, Jiang Weiyang seemed to sense something. She frowned and slapped his hand away, directly pushing Xue Silü's hand aside.
  • Xue Silü was so angry that he couldn't speak. He had kindly offered to change her clothes, but she didn't appreciate it! Did she think he would be interested in a flat-chested woman like her?
  • "Stupid woman!" He cursed and turned to leave, calling for the housekeeper to come and help Jiang Weiyang change out of her wet clothes.
  • "Sir, the madam has a high fever. Should we try to lower her temperature?" After changing her clothes, the housekeeper cautiously asked Xue Silü, who had a black face.
  • Xue Silü snorted and dismissed the housekeeper.
  • At that moment, Jiang Weiyang was dressed in a white nightgown. Her sleeping position was not very comfortable, with her legs sprawled out and clutching the blanket. Xue Silü approached with a stern expression, grabbed her foot, and pulled it down, then adjusted the blanket to cover her properly.
  • By chance, he caught a glimpse of something on Jiang Weiyang's back. Subconsciously, he reached out and tugged at her nightgown, wanting to take a closer look.
  • However, as soon as his hand touched Jiang Weiyang, she rolled over, pressing the object on her back beneath her body.
  • Xue Silü looked for a while but couldn't see clearly. In the end, he had to give up. Nevertheless, he had a faint feeling that the shape of that object seemed familiar. The woman who had intruded into his room that night also had a birthmark on her back.
  • Could she be the person who came to my room that night?
  • Xue Silu couldn't let it go and reached out, grabbing Jiang Weiyang's arm, intending to forcefully turn her around and see the birthmark on her back.
  • However, as soon as he grabbed Jiang Weiyang's arm, she suddenly swung her fist and punched him in the eye socket...
