"I see... I came here to ask him for some favors. If he's not here, I'll come back later..."
"It shouldn't take long. I'll talk to Mr. Si." Bob said, turning around and leaving.
Tao Bao thought that Si Minghan would come over soon, so she might as well wait here.
He leaned over to the sofa, and when he sat down, his hand suddenly pressed something beside him. Only then did he notice the suit jacket that Si Minghan had casually thrown on the sofa.
The hard object under my hand is visible in my inner pocket.
Tao Bao's mind moved slightly, and he took out the things in the inner bag.
When she saw that what he took out was a spray for treating asthma, her hand trembled violently and she dropped the spray directly on the sofa in fright.
Tao Bao's face turned pale.
Si Minghanju always carries this thing with him.
Why?
Tao Bao couldn't help but laugh at himself. What else could it be? Every time his rudeness caused an asthma attack, he would look at this bottle of spray.
Just like that time when she escaped with the six little ones and was found by Si Minghan, he silently took out the spray and placed it in front of them. The strong sense of danger is still deeply engraved in her mind.
Tao Bao calmed himself down, tensed his nerves, stuffed the spray bottle into his suit pocket, returned to his normal self, turned around and left the room.
Tao Bao, who returned to his room, was extremely angry and kicked the foot of the bed.
"Ah..." Tao Bao fell to the ground in pain, gasping for air and breathing heavily to ease the dull pain. He hugged his foot tightly, tears welling in his eyes. "I wouldn't ask him for help... Who else can I trust in this world besides myself? The person I can't trust the most is Si Minghan..."
He is cruel and ruthless, and extremely cunning. Haven't he forced and threatened her enough?
Is it because of Si Minghan’s sudden change recently?
But even if there is a slight change, it cannot prove that Si Minghan is no longer dangerous!
Si Minghan returned to the room, did not look at Tao Bao's people, turned around and left, and went to the next room.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Tao Bao sitting on the ground, holding his feet with his hands.
"What's the matter?" Si Minghan hurried forward and grabbed her wrist.
Tao Bao raised his head, and the tears in his pupils that he had not yet had time to withdraw made Si Minghan's black eyes tremble slightly.
"No, I accidentally kicked my toe..." Tao Bao was about to get up, but her body suddenly felt lighter and Si Minghan picked her up and put her on the edge of the bed. She was startled when she saw Si Minghan half-crouching to take off her shoes, "What are you doing?"
"Don't move." Si Minghan pulled her socks off directly, revealing her white jade-like feet.
Before Tao Bao could even utter a word of refusal, her foot had already landed in Si Minghan's palm, causing her to freeze there.
She looked at Si Minghan in front of her in astonishment. He actually did this...
The big toe is red and swollen.
Tao Bao didn't expect to kick so hard. In the end, it was all because of the man in front of him...
Si Minghan pinched the joint of her big toe with his rough fingertips.
"Hmm..." Tao Bao frowned and bit her lip.
"It's not broken." Si Minghan let go of her foot, stood up, and left the room.
Tao Bao retracted his feet and sat on the bed.
It seemed as if the skin that had been gripped by Si Minghan's palm was still slightly warm.
After she saw the spray bottle, her attitude changed completely.
She didn't want to accept any seemingly well-intentioned actions from Si Minghan.
Si Minghan's nature would not change. He was still as dangerous as ever. The spray bottle on his body was like a time bomb that could tear her apart at any moment...
Si Minghan, who had left, came back again with a small ointment in his hand. He sat down on the edge of the bed, lifted her feet and placed them on his thighs, preparing to apply the ointment on her red and swollen toes.
Tao Bao immediately pulled his foot back and said, "I'll do it myself!" He snatched the ointment from Si Minghan's hand.
Without even looking at Si Minghan's expression, she buried her head, squeezed out the ointment, and applied it on her toes. The cooling effect relieved the heat from the red and swollen areas a lot.
He looked focused, but in fact every pore in his body was sensing the changes in the air.
There was no need to look up; the sharp, oppressive gaze falling on him was so obvious.
I don’t know if it’s because of the spray bottle, but the panic I once felt came out again when I faced Si Minghan.
Or maybe, the panic has always been there, but she has recently been confused by Si Minghan's "kindness".
At this moment, she doesn't want to have any further contact with him!
"What are you looking for me for?" Si Minghan broke the silence.
"I want to tell you... after the TV station resumes normal work tomorrow, you can stay in Aunt Qiu's apartment first." Tao Bao was gently applying the ointment when her jaw was pinched and lifted up, forcing her to face Si Minghan's deep face.
"Why?" The voice was low, and the aura had changed in a way that made people dread.
"Can you give me some time?"
"how long?"
Tao Bao swallowed his saliva and said, "I don't know..."
After she finished speaking, the oppression in the air became even stronger, carrying with it an unknown danger.
Tao Bao closed his eyes, feeling nervous.
She hadn't agreed to let Si Minghan live in Hanyuan, had she?
Just as she was anxiously waiting for Si Minghan to get angry, the ointment on her hand was taken away by Si Minghan.
Then the foot was pulled over and pressed against his thigh.
Si Minghan applied the ointment and rubbed the toe joints with his fingertips.
"Ah..." Tao Bao gasped and tried to free his feet.
However, Si Minghan's palm was holding her foot, and his strength was so great that she couldn't escape at all!
"Mr. Si, are you taking revenge on me?" Tao Bao breathed rapidly.
"I'm going to get revenge, and your toes will be broken."
Tao Bao bit her lip and endured it. Would it be effective if she kneaded it harder? She looked at Si Ming's cold and sharp face, which was tense and hard...
After about a minute, Si Minghan let go of her feet and glanced at Tao Bao deeply. "I'll give you a week."
After saying that, he left the room.
Tao Bao stood there in a daze, meaning that in a week, no matter whether she had thought it through or not, she would eventually be forced by Si Minghan to live in Hanyuan.
She didn't have the heart to think about this right now. She was thinking about investigating Tao Shiming on her own...
Tao Bao looked at the phone next to him. After a moment, he picked up the phone, looked up Tao Shiming's number, and dialed it.
The other end rang twice and answered, "Is that you, Xiaobao?"
"It's me."
"I didn't expect you to call me. I'm really surprised." Tao Shiming couldn't suppress his joy.
"What did Aunt Qiu say to you when we met that day?" Tao Bao's voice began to choke. "She called me on the day she left. I didn't answer the three times, and I felt really guilty... If she had told you something, maybe I could guess what she wanted to say when she called me..."
"She did say something, but it's not convenient to talk on the phone. How about this, let's meet in person and I'll tell you?"
Tao Bao said nothing, his eyes were cold.
"Don't worry, I will tell you every word. After all, I find it hard to accept Aqiu's death, and I want to do something for you." Tao Shiming sighed, seemingly helpless.
