Chapter 30: My stomach hurts

"What did I do?" Xia Weiyang stared at them with a dark expression on her face.

They had already betrayed her, yet they still dared to pester her regularly. Did they really think that she was easy to bully around?

"Don't pretend to be innocent," Lu Ziyin said disdainfully. "Could it be that you didn't ask young master Shi Jue to interfere with the Lu family's matters?"

"Ha!" Xia Weiyang laughed coldly. "Lu Ziyin, it seems you have already given everything to Xia Ningyan, including your brain. Maybe that's the reason why you're so brainless."

"You..." Lu Ziyin was interrupted by Xia Weiyang.

"Young master Shi Jue? Do you even know who he is? Do you think he'll let anyone tell him what to do? You think too highly of me. Although I don't know what young master Shi Jue did to your family, I can only say that he must have done an excellent job." Xia Weiyang's last sentence was extremely serious.

"Xia Weiyang, do you want to die? I'll grant you your wish!" Lu Ziyin's eyes were filled with anger. As he spoke, he let go of Xia Ningyan and extended his large hand towards Xia Weiyang.

"No, Lu Ziyin..." Xia Ningyan suddenly stepped forward and blocked Lu Ziyin. "She is still pregnant! If young master Shi Jue finds out that you threatened to hurt her..."

Xia Ningyan's words only added fuel to the fire.

Hearing Shi Jue's name angered Lu Ziyin even more. His eyes turned red as he stared at Xia Weiyang.

"You look so helpless and pitiful, Lu Ziyin. You're not on the same level as Shi Jue. No, no, no..." Xia Weiyang stretched out her index finger and shook it in front of Lu Ziyin's face. "You're simply not worthy enough to compare yourself to him."

"Xia Ningyan, get out of the way!" Although Lu Ziyin was like a mad dog trying to get past Xia Ningyan, he was still gentle and considerate towards her.

"Lu Ziyin, forget about it. I'm sure my sister didn't mean what she said. After all, she and young master Shi Jue..." Xia Ningyan wanted to say something but she stopped herself.

Seeing Xia Ningyan's pretentious behavior, Xia Weiyang's lips curled into a cold smile as she looked at her with disdain. "Don't call me your sister. Xia Ningyan, you're really pretentious! It's a shame Lu Ziyin can't see it because he's blind. You two deserve each other!"

Suddenly, Lu Ziyin gently pushed Xia Ningyan away. He took a step forward and grabbed Xia Weiyang's wrist. He held on to her tightly and tried to drag her away.

However, Xia Ningyan pounced forward and tried to stop Lu Ziyin.

A chaotic scene erupted inside the office as Xia Weiyang, Lu Ziyin, and Xia Ningyan struggled with one another.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Xia Ningyan cried out in shock.

She fell on the ground while clutching her stomach with one hand. Drops of cold sweat rolled down her face. With a soft and trembling voice, she said, "Lu Ziyin, my stomach, it hurts. The child, my child is gone..."

The sight of Xia Ningyan on the floor terrified Lu Ziyin that he immediately froze. After coming to his senses, he carried Xia Ningyan and walked away.

Before leaving the office, he turned his head and gave Xia Weiyang a threatening stare. "If anything happens to Xia Ningyan, I will come after you. Even Shi Jue won't be able to protect you."

Xia Weiyang pursed her lips. She could not describe the feeling in her heart.

Although things got a little chaotic earlier, Xia Weiyang knew that she never touched her sister.

At first, Xia Weiyang thought Xia Ningyan was faking it. However, the look on her face suggested that she was really in pain.

Despite what had just happened, Xia Weiyang could not help but think that it was all part of Xia Ningyan's plan.

However, she deeply cared about Lu Ziyin.

Was she willing to scare Lu Ziyin by faking a miscarriage?

Xia Weiyang then remembered that she still had work to do.

After going back to her desk, she was approached by her boss, who had just returned to the office.

"Xia Weiyang, since you're pregnant, you no longer have to go to the venue. You can just leave all your work with Mo Weian," her boss said to her.

Xia Weiyang nodded to show that she understood him. For her, it did not matter who she left her work with since she could not go.

"Xia Weiyang, I stole your assignment. I hope you won't be angry at me," Mo Weian jokingly said as she jogged over to Xia Weiyang's desk.

"Don't worry about it!" Xia Weiyang smiled and rolled her eyes at Mo Weian. "I'm glad that you're the one who will take over my assignment and not someone else."

"You really think so?" Mo Weian asked as a strange look flashed across her eyes.
