Chapter 77
Nian Jin’s hands stopped buttoning her shirt, and his brows furrowed.
Ning Qing’s heart shrank when she saw his expression. Before she could say anything, Cao Xin stood up and hurriedly apologized, ”
“I’m sorry, young Madam. I didn’t do it on purpose. Are you okay?”
She was at a loss. She wanted to check on ning Qing’s condition, but she didn’t know where to start.
Ning Qing shook her head. I’m fine.
Then, Cao Xin saw Nian lie and apologized profusely on both sides, her face red with anxiety.
“Young master, it’s not young Madam’s fault. I accidentally knocked over coffee. I’m really sorry!”
Ning Qing’s face turned pale, and she looked at the woman in front of her with a little surprise.
What did she mean by that?
The woman’s face was red and tears were about to come out of her eyes. Her pitiful look made it hard for people to doubt the meaning of her words.
Nian lie strode over, but he didn’t get too close.
He glanced at the dirt on the ground and the woman’s body.
Brown liquid flowed all over the floor, and the black carpet next to it was deeply cut. The bottom of the woman’s white shirt was dirty, including her arms and chest. It was stuck to her skin, faintly revealing the proud scenery inside.
“Mr. Nian,” she said.
Cao Xin’s eyes sparkled and she spoke in a delicate voice.
Nian lie looked at her. go and see if you’re scalded. I’ll get Lu Zhui to bring you a new set of clothes later.
Cao Xin bit her lip pitifully. but the crickets on the ground ...
“You don’t need to worry about it.”
thank you, Mr. Nian.
The woman clutched her chest and walked past Nian lie. Before she left, she turned back to look at ning Qing, who was on the sofa. She gritted her teeth, opened the door, and left.
Ning Qing’s back was straight, and she felt upset.
His actions just now seemed to have silently admitted that she was the one who did it.
However, Nian lie didn’t ask her anything. Instead, he returned to his desk and pressed the internal line.
“Get the cleaner to come to my office.”
After hanging up, he looked over with his dark eyes.
Ning Qing’s palm was cold. The words of explanation reached her mouth, but she could not say them out loud.
Nian lie strode forward.
“Are you scalded?”
Ning Qing could not help but shrink her feet. No.
“......”
A soft sigh came from above her head, and ning Qing’s eyes became watery.
The man had already bent down, one knee touching the ground, and his well-defined hands held her ankle.
Ning Qing’s pupils shrank, and Nian lie looked up at her unhappily.
“I don’t like it when you lie.”
Ning Qing’s pink lips opened and closed, but she could not say a word.
Nian lie’s attention returned to the back of her foot. There were traces of brown liquid flowing down her originally fair foot, and the skin underneath was slightly red. It was a rather shocking sight.
He pulled a few tissues from the table and wiped her down carefully.
Ning Qing was extremely embarrassed. She tried her best to retract her leg, and her face was flushed. Nian lie, I can do it myself.
“Don’t mess around!”
The pronunciation of these two words was a little heavy, indicating that he was not in a good mood at the moment.
Ning Qing trembled, her eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings. She did not dare to disobey him.
She called someone to deliver some ointment for burns. After applying the ointment for her, Nian lie sat opposite her with his long legs crossed and his arms casually resting on the armrest of the sofa. His unusually handsome face was covered in a layer of mist.
His thoughts turned several times before he asked in a deep voice, ”
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
It was only then that ning Qing remembered what had happened just now. She stiffened. what did you say about ran ran? ”
Nian lie’s expression became hard to read.
He had clearly seen Cao Xin’s ‘carelessness’ just now.
It clearly had nothing to do with her, but she didn’t even say a word to explain.
His gaze was deep and his tone was hoarse.
“He said you’re unhappy and don’t like to be misunderstood.”
