Liao Qian: "Tch, you're overconfident! Her standards for choosing a partner are very high! You should save your breath and focus on remarrying An Ning as soon as possible."

Thunder: "This should be quick..."

An Ning: "Oh dear..."

Thunder: "An Ning, what's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong?"

An Ning suddenly exclaimed and put the plate she was holding on the table. Lei Ting immediately ran over.

Hans: "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry, so sorry! Ash from the stove fell on Miss Anne, I'm so sorry!"

Thunder: "Where did you get burned? Let me see..."

An Ning: "It's okay... it's just a little bit on my wrist."

Hans: "I'm so sorry..."

Thunder: "How could you be so careless! It's all red, doesn't it hurt...?"

Liao Qian: "Let me see this tiny burn, the size of a pinhead. If I don't look at it now, it will be invisible."

Thunder: "You have nothing better to do... I'll take you inside to deal with this."

An Ning: "Sigh, no need... Thunder~"

Upon learning that Anning had been burned by charcoal ash, Lei Ting was heartbroken. Even though it was only the size of a pinhead, Lei Ting was still worried and immediately picked Anning up and carried her into the house. Liao Qian shook his head as he watched him.

Hans: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Liao, we got too carried away, I'm so sorry..."

Liao Qian: "It's okay, he's a lunatic, don't worry about him too much."

Allen: "I think he's very manly."

Liao Qian: "What…"

Liao Qian immediately glared at Allen with wide eyes. Allen sneered, fed Liao Qian a sip of wine, pulled him back to his chair, and rubbed his face against Liao Qian's. Only then did Liao Qian feel relieved.

Liao Qian: "You're mine, how can you look at someone else? That's my best brother."

Allen: "Okay, okay, I'm not watching anymore..."

Liao Qian: "You weren't allowed to look at him in the first place... you weren't allowed to look at him anymore, but you've been staring at him all day."

Allen: "What he said makes a lot of sense. You agreed to my request because of him, and I'm very grateful to him."

Liao Qian: "Don't mention him again..."

Allen: "Okay... I'll only mention you..."

Liao Qian and Allen were being intimate in the yard. Lei Ting felt extremely sorry for An Ning and immediately put her by the pool and rinsed the scalded area with running cool water.

An Ning: "It's nothing at all! Lei Ting, don't be so nervous..."

Lei Ting: "Is there anywhere else that's been burned? It's all my fault. Why did I talk to Liao Qian? I should have been looking at you."

Anning: "I'm fine... We still have guests! It's impolite of us to act like this inside..."

Lei Ting: "Ignore them, don't move, rinse it with cold water for a while. It won't hurt that way."

An Ning: "Don't be so worried about me, it's just a little bit, it doesn't hurt much."

Lei Ting: "How can that be? It's all my fault for not watching you properly. Don't move, whatever you do, don't move! I brought the medicine from home, I'll go get it. Don't move, be careful not to fall."

Anning: "I can't even see where the burns are..."

Lei Ting ran upstairs to get the special medicine he had brought from home, and quickly ran back down. An Ning had already gotten off the sink. There was no longer any burn on her skin; An Ning couldn't even feel the pain anymore. Lei Ting then gently turned An Ning's wrist and carefully applied the medicine to her wrist.

Anning: "Thunder doesn't need any more medicine. It's invisible now and doesn't hurt anymore."

Lei Ting: "Don't move. This burn is nasty. If you leave it alone, it will slowly ooze pus, peel, and leave a scar. Sometimes the scar will even itch."

Anning: "It's not that serious. It's not red anymore, just a little bit of charcoal ash. It's not even as painful as when you were hurting me last night."

Thunder: "Then I'll be gentle tonight... I'll blow on you..."

An Ning lowered her head shyly, and Lei Ting carefully applied the medicine to her wrist. After applying it, he blew on it to make sure the medicine was applied to her entire wrist.

Anning: "This burn ointment smells really nice."

Lei Ting: "This is a burn ointment that Grandma specially made with comfrey, honeysuckle, mint, and horse oil. It reduces swelling and relieves pain, and it will be fine in a little while."

Anning: "It's not that serious... I can't even see anymore."

Thunder: "Blow it..."

Anning: "So refreshing, so comfortable..."

Thunder: "It has mint, so it's refreshing."

An Ning: "Hehe, you know so much about Chinese medicine, do you know how to take a pulse? You also know acupuncture and massage, do you?"

Lei Ting: "Yes, I know all of these. These are the basics. I learned them from my grandparents since I was a child. With my skills, I can open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic without any problem."

An Ning: "Then help me take my pulse and see what kind of constitution I have."

Thunder: "I took your pulse when you fainted the day before yesterday. Your pulse was very irregular, so I should be able to take it now."

An Ning: "Hmm..."

Just as Lei Ting was about to take An Ning's pulse, Chef Hans came in with a cup of ice cream. An Ning immediately took the ice cream, and Chef Hans apologized repeatedly.

Hans: "I'm sorry, Miss Anne, it was my negligence that caused you to be burned."

Anning: "It's okay, my husband was just being too careful. I'm fine. Hans, your hand is burned too. Leiting, do we have any more ointment? Can we give Hans some?"

Thunder: "There's another new bottle, I'll go get it."

Lei Ting went upstairs to get the medicine and took the ice cream from An Ning's hand. An Ning asked Hans to sit on the sofa, glanced outside, and saw Allen and Liao Qian whispering in her ear. An Ning ignored them and poured Hans a cup of fruit tea.

Hans: "What an honor to drink the fruit tea poured by Miss Anne!"

Anning: "Hehe, Hans, your chef team has grown quite a bit, you're getting better and better."

Hans: "I've hit a bottleneck. I don't know why, but I always feel like my team needs something more, but I don't know what to add."
