Zhuang Nainai hadn’t noticed at the start and realized only now that the hand he had used to hold her head down was wrapped in a dense layer of gauze .
His hand… why was it like that?
Strangely, the scene of Xu Dazhi taking a knife for her flashed before her eyes .
It seemed like Xu Dazhi had also gotten injured in the same hand .
Zhuang Nainai stared at his hand in a daze, then suddenly reached out, wanting to unravel the gauze to reveal the injury .
At that moment, the butler suddenly opened the door and walked in . He was holding a bowl of warm porridge . When the butler saw what was happening, he was shocked!
Si Zhengting was lying on the bed in his pajamas, and the blanket was in a mess at the side . Si Zhengting’s clothes were in a mess, and he looked… he looked…
Did Madam… was she really that eager?
The butler cried out in surprise, “Madam!”
Zhuang Nainai swiveled her head toward him in surprise . She studied the butler’s expression, then turned back and looked at Si Zhengting . Her brain whirring quickly, she suddenly realized how this would look like to an outsider . She flushed red and hurriedly got to her feet . “That, Uncle Li, I, he, we…”
The butler remained poker-faced . He couldn’t help but interrupt Zhuang Nainai, “About that, Madam, Sir is still ill . Hm, I think he needs a good rest . ”
Zhuang Nainai: “…!!”
If she said that it was Si Zhengting who wanted to make out with her and she was forced to do so, would the butler believe her?
Obviously, no .
Zhuang Nainai really wanted to turn around and hit Si Zhengting at that moment!
This jerk!
The butler walked in with the bowl of porridge . His gaze landed on Si Zhengting’s hand . His eyes narrowed as he wanted to say something, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it .
Luckily, Zhuang Nainai was feeling really embarrassed now, so she didn’t notice the butler behaving strangely .
She lowered her hand and looked at his hand again . Before she could ask him, Butler Li sighed deeply . “Madam, Sir has suffered greatly from his illness . When he suddenly fainted, there was boiling-hot water next to him . When he fell to the ground, his hand fell into the boiling water . You don’t know how much damage his hand has suffered . ”
His entire hand got submerged in hot water?
Zhuang Nainai’s heart suddenly ached . She cradled Si Zhengting’s hand gingerly as she asked, “How did that happen? Will there be any lasting damage? Will…”
“No . Don’t worry, Madam . Still, we have to handle it gently so that there won’t be any scarring . Regarding the application of any medicine, that must be done by a professional family doctor . Please don’t touch his hand . ” As he said this, the butler, as though he had thought of something, glanced at Zhuang Nainai . “Hm, don’t engage in some activities . What if you accidentally hurt his hand?”
Zhuang Nainai: “…!!”
She really wanted to pretend as though she hadn’t understood him, but she did!
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room became really awkward .
Sensing the awkward air, the butler handed the bowl of porridge to her, “Madam, do you want to try feeding Sir some porridge?”
Zhuang Nainai nodded . The butler turned and left .
After the butler left, Zhuang Nainai turned back and glared at the chief offender . She took a few deep breaths and suddenly turned, heading for the dressing table . She rummaged through the drawers, then turned around, a sinister glint momentarily flashing across her eyes…
Si Zhengting, I won’t let you off easily!
