Chapter 92 Apologies

After walking for quite a while, Shi Tian arrived home safely.

And the first thing he did was to place the box on top of the table and began to strip his clothes.

He was drenched in sweat- to the point that he was feeling sticky with the clothes stuck to him like honey.

It was an uncomfortable feeling, and all he wished was to take a warm shower to wash off the sweat. With only his boxer left, Shi Tian walked toward the bathroom.

Right as he was ready to place his hand on the doorknob to open it, the door suddenly opened.

And no, it was not a naked Vanessa nor was it her in a bathrobe. Such cliche events would only happen in fictional stories or horny men's dreams.

It was simply Vanessa fully clothed that had just finished using the toilet and was coming out of the bathroom.

She also didn't scream like a woman when she saw Shi Tian only had boxers on.

Instead, she had a deadpan expression on her face as she asked, "Is that your fetish to wear only boxers the moment you come back home?"

"Haha, very funny. I'm laughing with pain in my stomach." Shi Tian replied sarcastically, pushing her aside. "If you're done with the bathroom, then you should have moved aside."

Vanessa clicked her tongue in annoyance when she saw how rude he was being. She was a beautiful woman, so everyone always treated her with extreme care and gentleness. Yet Shi Tian would always act so indifferently and treated her quite harshly. historical

She truly couldn't understand how his brain works nor does she wish to overload her brain to deduce his conduct.

'Hmph, luckily I wasn't taking a shower or anything. Otherwise, wouldn't I be seen completely naked by him?' Vanessa thought to herself, making a mental note to beware of him.

Time slowly passed by, and Shi Tian felt refreshed after taking a warm shower, washing off the sweat from his body.

Coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his lower body, he noticed Vanessa was going through the box he had carried home.

"Don't you know it's rude to touch something that's not yours?" Shi Tian walked over and said coolly.

"Meh, isn't it just some metal scraps?" Vanessa shrugged her shoulders and scoffed.

"Yeah, it's some metal scraps yet here you are, touching it as if you are some woman in heat." Shi Tian snorted, placed the items back in the box, and carried them back to his room. He didn't even bother to turn back and look her in the face, treating her as thin air.

Meanwhile, Vanessa pursed her lips and looked at his room which was now shut tightly.

"Did he have to be that rude? I'm just bored and only touched his stuff briefly. It's not like I have broken them.." She mumbled, feeling somewhat frustrated. She was idling in the house all day without being able to do much.

Most of her belongings were lost because of the attack from the White Syndicate, leaving her with only a few things in her Dimension Ring. What made things worse was the fact that she couldn't go outside, afraid that she might be tracked by them.

All she could do was meditate slowly and walk around in this empty house given the fact that Shi Tian was out nearly the entire day.

While she was pouting and lamenting her miserable life, Shi Tian was already dressed in new clothes as he organized the items on the small table beside his bed.

"Luckily nothing was broken, otherwise, Vanessa can get out of the house." Shi Tian muttered, checking on the equipment condition thoroughly.

This equipment was supposed to help him familiarize himself with the mechanic class. So if the items were ruined by Vanessa's curiosity, then it was equivalent to ruining his future pathway.

How could he still be calm when she nearly blocked his pathway?

Though this incident alone reminded him to be careful of where he placed things on, lest, he might accidentally lose even more valuables.

While Shi Tian was preparing to study the blueprint, Vanessa outside knocked on the door.

"Hey, I just wanted to apologize for touching your things." She then said timidly.

After waiting for quite some time, there was still no response coming from Shi Tian, prompting her to be even more nervous. She knew that she was in the wrong after some thought, and decided to apologize.

But who would have thought Shi Tian would give her the cold shoulder, not even letting her have the chance of redemption. Gritting her teeth, Vanessa mustered up her courage to knock on the door again.

"Didn't I just touch a few of your mechanic parts? I still have a few items related to you and can give you some as an apology." She then shouted, clearly frustrated that she would one day be at the receiving end to apologize.

And to think she even had to resort to paying something back as compensation was unheard of in her life.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian opened the door after a few seconds when he heard about getting something for free.

"You're such a nuisance. I can't even study my blueprint properly with all your grumbling." Shi Tian picked his ear and complained.

Vanessa clenched her fist, but refrain from bursting in anger. She would have believed him to be studying properly had she not seen his cheeky expression.

"So where are the mechanical parts that you're talking about? I don't think you have anything with you." Shi Tian subsequently asked. He was confused as to where she was storing them when there was barely anything on her.

"They're in my Dimension Ring." Vanessa twitched her mouth and flashed her left hand. On her left middle finger, there was indeed a ring on it.

However, Shi Tian was confused as to why she was flashing her ring to him.

"Is that your engagement ring? Are you trying to flex on me that you're taken?" He then asked, seemingly annoyed by her.
