trap rose

He raised the teapot, and the hot tea flowed down the edge of the cup without mercy.

The hot temperature clings to the warm cotton skin.

Just one touch was enough to make the warm cotton wrists and palms ache, burning like a burning fire.

She subconsciously wanted to retract her hand, but she didn't know that Father Pei's movements continued, even watering Wen Mian's hand more and more seriously.

When all the relatives at the dinner table saw this scene, they were too frightened to speak and did not even try to dissuade her.

At this moment, the door was pushed open!

What came from outside was a merciless cold wind, blowing into the house.

Following closely behind was Pei Zhiyao's figure, who hurried in against the light.

Wen Mian finally couldn't stand it any longer, so he let go of the tea cup and fell to the ground with a "bang".

Then it exploded and fell apart.

The tea was still being poured, and when it touched the delicate skin, most of it turned red instantly.

Wen Mian was frightened into a daze, but the stinging pain in his hands faintly brought back his thoughts.

Behind him, Pei Zhiyao came over in two steps and restrained Wen Mian's wrist.

Then without saying a word, he dragged him into the kitchen, turned on the faucet, and put Wen Mian's hand under the water to rinse it for a while.

The servant was watching from behind, but Pei Zhiyao yelled: "What are you looking at? Go and get the burn ointment!"

Several servants looked at each other, then looked at Father Pei's expression, and finally said, "There seems to be no burn cream at home."

"Then go buy it, it only takes ten minutes! Otherwise, don't continue working in the old house!"

After that, a group of people behind them walked out the door without stopping, not daring to waste any time.

Regardless of what Father Pei ordered behind him, if Pei Zhiyao really discovered something was wrong, it would be hard to say whether they would be able to find a job in the future, let alone resign and not continue working.

At that time, everyone at the dinner table looked at each other, as if they were all frightened by this scene.

Father Pei put down the teapot calmly and did not speak.

"dad."

Suddenly, Pei Qingqing stepped forward and looked at Father Pei cautiously.

The other party did not show anything wrong, but Pei Qingqing was a little nervous.

"Did you go too far just now? Brother will be angry." Pei Qingqing no longer cares about being together.

It’s a done deal, no matter how hard you try, the result will be the same.

She just hopes that she can return to her previous state, at least it won't make her sad.

But Pei's father just looked at the other party sideways, seemingly disdainful of Pei Qingqing's inquiry.

So what if you are angry.

He didn't believe that Pei Zhiyao could do anything excessive.

After all, he is the elder, and Pei Zhiyao will suffer no matter what.

The conversation between the two came from the kitchen, but it was particularly clear through the crack in the door.

"Does it still hurt?"

Fortunately, the temperature of the tea is not particularly high.

If Fan were a little taller, Wen Mian's hand wouldn't be needed.

There was only a faint red mark left on it, and most of the stinging feeling disappeared.

Compared with ordinary times, this hand is still uncomfortable.

Wen Mian forced a smile, not wanting Pei Zhiyao to worry.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, it's just outside..."

She squinted toward the door and saw that the relatives were still there.

Wen Mian didn't want his relationship with Pei Zhiyao to be too obvious.

But Pei Zhiyao's thoughts seemed to run counter to his own.

"Don't worry about them. This is not your fault. Where is your phone?"

Wen Mian was startled for a moment, "Huh?"

"I started contacting you in the morning, but you haven't heard back yet. I even turned off your phone when I called you. Where is your phone?"

Looking at Wen Mian's expression, he knew without guessing that Pei's father must have taken it away.

Sure enough, Wen Mian said cautiously, "Dad took it away and kept it in the hands of the bodyguard." (End of Chapter)
