Mo Jiangye’s eyes were blazing red with a murderous aura as he coldly glanced at the woman lying on the floor.
Ye Erruo had never expected to meet such an unreasonable shrew that day.
She hugged his arm tightly the moment his body shifted. “We need to go home and get ready. Lin Jingxuan’s engagement ceremony is about to commence soon.”
His gaze, however, never left the scattered fruit and vegetables on the floor. She hastily crouched down and picked up the dropped items to place them in the trolley she had brought over since the grocery bags were now destroyed. Some of the fruit was damaged, but since they had yet to pay for them, she placed everything into the trolley.
Astonished people surrounded them before the majority of the curious onlookers scattered at once.
“What’s with this guy? How can he resort to violence?”
“Shh… Keep it down…”
“Quick. Go get the security officer.”
“Mommy… Mommy…” Tears streamed down the boy’s face as he knelt beside his mother.
As she moaned, the woman’s face contorted in pain and she wrapped her hands around her stomach.
“That’s enough.” Ye Erruo pushed the trolley toward her man and grabbed hold of his hand. A life had nearly been lost.
Soon, the woman slowly climbed to her feet, looking slightly better now. The moment she heard the sound of footsteps, however, she snapped her head in that direction at once before hastily lying on the floor again and groaning louder than before.
A security officer swiftly made his way over along with a group of people. He whipped out his phone immediately to call the police when he found the injured woman on the floor.
Noticing that things were about to be blown out of proportion, Ye Erruo immediately pushed the trolley and dragged her man away.
“Excuse me, sir, but you can’t leave for the time being.” A security officer intercepted them.
Mo Jiangye merely scoffed and flipped the security officer over with his hand, sending him crashing to the ground. Then, with a hand pushing the trolley and a hand wrapped around his woman’s hand, he led her downstairs to pay for the groceries. No one dared to get in their way this time.
While she got dragged away by him, she looked past her shoulders to check the condition of the security officer behind them. I’d better not take him to the supermarket often in the future.
A batch of policemen had entered the supermarket by the time they reached the cash register.
Ye Erruo was aghast.
She pulled her husband behind her before shooting him a glare and whispering in warning, “Keep your head down and don’t let them see you.”
She did not want them to get into trouble at this point and arrive late or miss Lin Jingxuan’s engagement ceremony as a result.
Mo Jiangye said nothing.
It was almost their turn, so she pulled out her wallet.
The sight of her adorable wallet in her hand made his gaze turn bizarrely soft.
“Your total is 159.30 yuan, miss.” The cashier’s gaze, which was filled with amazement, was on the man beside her.
As soon as she paid, she swiftly packed the items into grocery bags, grabbed the hand of the person behind her, and made a move to leave. “Let’s go.”
“That’s them! Catch those two!” yelled the mother at the security guard as she limped over with her son and pointed a finger at the couple.
The policemen, who had been about to head upstairs, turned their heads in that direction at once.
She started pulling her husband away with her when she heard that.
“Stop! Stop right there!”
“Excuse me, please make way.” She dragged him along as they fled like fugitives.
“Car… Where’s your car?”
The man reached for the shopping bags in her hand, his lips twitching at the sight of the panting woman. “Why are you running?”
“Oh yeah, it’s in the garage.” She then picked up his hand and continued running with three or four policemen and the supermarket’s security guard in tow…
