Fine, let her drink the medicine then. There are so many people here, including Li Ma. What can Xia Bingqing do to her?
“Miss Xia, since you trust me so much, I’ll give you the medicine. I’ve taken care of many cats and dogs before, including some that were missing limbs, blind, or deaf. There were even some that were more seriously injured than you. I’m very experienced, and I won’t burn you.”
As Yi Yi spoke, she took the medicine bowl from Li Ma's hand and gave her a wink. Li Ma glanced at Yi Yi worriedly, then at Xia Bingqing, and could only silently step aside, not forgetting to remind her, "Yi Yi, be careful."
"It's alright, Aunt Li. Although Miss Xia is blind, she's still a person. She can't be harder to take care of than a cat or dog, can she?" Yi Yi scooped a spoonful of medicine from the bowl and held it to Xia Bingqing's lips.
When Yi Yi compared her to a kitten and a puppy, Xia Bingqing was furious, but she couldn't vent her anger now. She was so angry that she was panting heavily, and her eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
After a long pause, Xia Bingqing finally calmed down and replied through gritted teeth, "Yi Yi is right."
"The medicine's cold, drink it, Miss Xia," Yi said good-naturedly, holding up the bowl and spoon.
Just then, the sound of a car horn rang out from outside the courtyard.
Mu Nanxun has returned.
Yi recognized the horn. Remembering that she was still arguing with Mu Nanxun, she refused to look outside the courtyard and subconsciously tightened her grip on the spoon in her hand.
Similarly, Xia Bingqing recognized the sound as the horn of Mu Nanxun's Bugatti Veyron, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes as she came up with an idea.
She quickly bumped into Yi Yi, while reaching out to snatch Yi Yi's medicine bowl. The latter's attention was entirely focused on the horn blaring outside the courtyard, and she didn't notice Xia Bingqing's little action at all, so naturally she didn't have time to retaliate.
As a result, Yi Yi's hand trembled, and the entire bowl of medicine spilled onto Xia Bingqing's hand.
Although the medicine had been brewed and cooled for a while, the temperature was still quite high. With such a large bowl of medicine spilled on her skin, Xia Bingqing's hand visibly turned red.
What's going on?
If I'm not mistaken, Xia Bingqing deliberately lunged at her, intentionally spilling the large bowl of medicine on herself.
Before Yi Yi could recover from the shock, she heard a cry of "Ouch!" Xia Bingqing covered her scalded hand in pain and screamed.
"What's going on?" Mu Nanxun had just stepped inside when he saw this scene, and his gaze immediately fell on Yi Yi, who was still in a daze and shocked.
He saw what just happened clearly, but others might not have. If he hadn't been there, he wanted to know how Yi Yi would explain herself.
However, Yi Yi mistakenly thought he was questioning her, and her anger flared up again. She kept a straight face and remained silent.
What else could it be? This Miss Xia deliberately knocked over the medicine bowl and burned herself, trying to frame her.
However, Yi Yi was too lazy to explain. Those who believed her didn't need an explanation. Those who didn't believe her, an explanation wouldn't change anything. So why should she waste her breath?
"Miss Xia, how did you accidentally burn yourself? I'll take you downstairs to rinse it with cold water and apply some burn ointment. Be careful that your burn doesn't leave a scar."
Li Ma tried to pull Xia Bingqing away, but the latter struggled to break free and groped her way towards Mu Nanxun.
