"Hey, what's going on? Why is there a power outage?" Although it was already dawn, it was cloudy today and there was heavy fog outside, so the room was still quite dark. Li Jiaojiao sat up straight and asked loudly.
At this time, Ji Qingshan came out of the bathroom and said, "Hey, what's going on? There's a power outage."
"Yes, why would there be a power outage for no reason?" Li Jiaojiao asked dissatisfiedly.
"I don't know either. Don't move. The medicine I prepared for Shen Ning is still here. It will be troublesome if it is mixed up." Ji Qingshan hurriedly reminded her, and looked around. He was still worried, so he said, "I'd better light a candle. It will be troublesome if the medicine is mixed up. Today is the old man's funeral. Shen Ning is the head of the family. She can't take the wrong medicine and make a mistake."
He then stood up and went to get a candle.
"Don't move yet. Wait until I light the candle before you get up." Ji Qingshan took out a lighter and reminded Li Jiaojiao again.
After hearing this, Li Jiaojiao didn't dare to move. She placed her hands on the table as before, sat up straight, and waited for Ji Qingshan to light the candles.
After Ji Qingshan placed the candle steadily, he turned on the lighter and the candle was soon lit.
"Oh, it burned my hand." Suddenly, for some unknown reason, the candle on the table fell down and landed right next to Li Jiaojiao's fingers. Li Jiaojiao was startled and jumped up.
"Ah, what happened? The candle actually fell down." Ji Qingshan hurriedly picked up the candle and looked up at Li Jiaojiao, "How are you? Are you burned?"
Li Jiaojiao held her wrist with an unhappy look on her face. It seemed that she was not hurt anywhere, but the fire from the candle did burn her fingers.
What bad luck! This damn Ji Jiaoshou can’t even light a candle properly. What a useless guy!
"Check if there are any burns? Do you want to apply some medicine?" Ji Qingshan asked with concern.
"It's okay, no need. Please be more careful and attentive in the future." Li Jiaojiao touched her hands again to make sure they were not burned, and refused with a stern face.
"I'm so sorry, the bottom of the candle is a bit slippery, luckily I didn't hurt you." He looked at his hands and said, "I'll go wash my hands first."
Li Jiaojiao glared at him and sat down again.
At this moment, I heard a "beep" sound, and the room lights suddenly came on. The phone rang.
Ji Qingshan washed his hands and came out, saying, "The power must have tripped just now."
Li Jiaojiao didn't bother to care whether it was a power outage or something else. She just sat there with an unhappy look on her face. After the lights came on, she looked at the jewelry in her hand again.
Sudden
Her eyes widened and she slammed the table.
"Ji Jiaoshou, you burned my jewelry, pay for it."
Li Jiaojiao was heartbroken. She had always loved jewelry, but he had actually burned it. She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.
Ji Qingshan had just sat down and was startled by Li Jiaojiao's slap. He looked up.
I saw that several gold diamond rings on Li Jiaojiao's fingers had turned black.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen." He apologized hurriedly.
Li Jiaojiao took off the diamond rings on her three fingers and took a closer look. She found that all the places that were burned by the fire were black. She was very angry for a moment.
No wonder I felt like I was being burned by fire just now. It turned out that I was indeed burned, but it didn’t burn my skin. Instead, it was blocked by the big diamond ring on my hand.
"Ji Jiaoshou, you have burned several of my big diamond rings. What should I do? You have to compensate me. They are very valuable and cannot be dealt with with just a few coins." She said angrily and pushed the burnt ring in front of him.
Ji Qingshan picked up the diamond ring and looked at it, then suddenly looked at Li Jiaojiao: "It's not worth much, is it?"
Li Jiaojiao was about to lose her temper when she suddenly remembered something. She was startled and her face turned pale. She quickly picked up the diamond rings and looked at them.
All the places burned by the fire turned black.
Isn't this a ring made of gold and platinum? They are fireproof and shouldn't burn black. Why is it completely black? Could it be...
Her face became uglier.
