Seeing this, Huo Si was shocked. He quickly grabbed his suit jacket and flew towards Si Muyan.
Most of the boiling soup was blocked by the suit, but a small part of it passed through the uncovered areas and fell onto Si Muyan's shoulders.
"Ah!" Si Muyan cried out in pain.
With a loud bang, the stone pot shattered heavily, and all the customers in the restaurant looked in their direction.
"Yes, I'm sorry." The waiter apologized hurriedly and nervously.
Huo Si didn't have time to pay attention to her. He looked at Si Muyan anxiously, "How is it?"
"It hurts so much." Si Muyan covered her shoulder, twisted her facial features, and her brows were full of pain.
"Go to the hospital immediately." Huo Si said, quickly preparing to pick her up.
"Wait a minute." Si Muyan stopped him and looked at the store manager who had rushed over. "Do you have any ice or burn medicine?"
"We have ice cubes." The store manager said, and quickly asked someone to bring some ice cubes.
Si Muyan calmly took the ice and placed it on the burned area. Then, she and Huo Si went to the hospital.
Rushing to the hospital's emergency room, the doctor who had received the call in advance was already waiting on standby. Seeing Si Muyan, he immediately took her into the emergency room to check on her condition.
Because Si Muyan took measures to cool down the body immediately and the burns were not to a large extent, the injuries were not serious.
In the emergency room, Si Muyan bit her lips tightly and watched the nurse apply medicine to her.
"Hiss." Si Muyan felt pain.
"Be gentle, can't you see she's in pain?" Huo Si shouted sternly.
The nurse's hands trembled nervously, and then she concentrated on applying the medicine.
Seeing the shocking wound on his shoulder, Huo Si clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bloodshot.
Si Muyan was in so much pain, but when she saw his eyes, she still tried to raise her hand and grab his fingers: "Brother Si, I'm fine."
"You're okay even though you're injured like this?" Huo Si's eyes were full of heartache, and he blamed himself for not being able to protect her.
"It's just a local burn, I can bear it." Si Muyan's face was pale, but her smile was still bright. "Thank you, Brother Si. If you hadn't covered it with clothes in time, I'm afraid I would have been disfigured."
Huo Si reacted quickly, and the speed at which he swung his clothes was much faster than the speed at which he could block it with his body.
In addition, the coat was spread out at the time, which could cover a larger area. Because of this, Si Muyan only suffered a burn on her shoulder, which was only about two or three centimeters.
The nurse finally bandaged the wound and breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Huo, the wound has been treated. From now on, just change the dressing on time and keep the wound away from water."
Huo Si nodded coldly, and the nurse hurriedly left the ward to get the medicine.
Seeing that he still had a tense face, Si Muyan was about to raise her hand, but it hurt when she touched the wound.
"Don't move." Huo Si held her hand to prevent her from moving.
Twisting her wrist, Si Muyan interlocked her fingers with his and said coquettishly, "I'm fine, really. Brother Si, am I smart? When you get burned, you should cool it down immediately. You can use ice or water."
Scratching her nose with his fingers, Huo Si replied in a low voice, "You're a medical student, so of course you should stay calm."
Thinking of the scene at that time, Huo Si was still frightened, and his fingers fell on the gauze.
Huo Si leaned over slowly and kissed his wound through the gauze.
Si Muyan's cheeks flushed.
"Does it hurt?" Huo Si's deep eyes were filled with pity, which made people intoxicated.
"It doesn't hurt now." Si Muyan said shyly, pulling up the clothes that had been torn off, and touched her poor belly, "I'm just a little hungry, my belly is flat."
Huo Si pinched her cheek and said, "Get the medicine and go eat. I'll take care of this."
"That waitress was so scared that she started crying. She probably didn't mean it..."
Before Si Muyan could finish her words, there was a knock on the door. Immediately afterwards, Xu Jie rushed in: "President, the matter has been investigated..."
After hearing Xu Jie's report, Si Muyan opened her eyes in surprise. Knowing it was Si Tong, she clenched her fists tightly.
What I thought was an accident turned out not to be an accident at all.
After leaving the hospital, Huo Si took Si Muyan to the Si family.
Coming back to this house after a long absence, Si Muyan didn't miss it too much.
All her feelings for the Si family have been completely worn out.
Huo Si held her cold hand and said in a low voice, "I'll take care of everything."
Si Muyan hummed softly, a smile blooming: "I know."
Afterwards, the two walked into the Si family villa.
Upon learning that Huo Si was coming, Si Nan hurried back and was already waiting there: "Huo Si, Mu Yan, you're back."
Si Nan greeted him with a smile and called him by his name to show his familiarity.
Huo Si looked indifferent. When he helped Si Muyan sit down, his cold eyes only changed slightly when he looked at her.
Si Nan and Zhao Wei were also sitting there, and Si Tong had also returned home. When she saw Si Muyan sitting there peacefully, she couldn't help but squeeze the hem of her skirt tightly.
Although she held a grudge in her heart, Si Tong's green tea acting skills still came in handy: "Sister, Mr. Huo."
With a friendly smile on her face, Si Tong sat down next to Zhao Wei after she finished speaking.
Seeing that everyone was present, Huo Si spoke coldly: "I came to the Si family today to settle accounts with you."
"Settling the accounts?" Si Nan and his wife were puzzled.
"My wife and I were at the Youlan Restaurant at noon today. Someone deliberately poured the hot stone pot fish that had just been taken out of the pot onto my wife, causing her to be injured." Huo Si said concisely with a cold look in his eyes.
Hearing this, Si Nan and Zhao Wei looked at Si Tong in unison.
"Mom and Dad, I didn't." Si Tong's eyes were red, and she looked at Huo Si with sobs and grievance, "Mr. Huo, although I was eating there at noon, this matter has nothing to do with me. I was eating at the time, and everyone in the restaurant can testify for me."
"Of course you don't need to do it yourself, you just need to bribe the waiter." Huo Si replied coldly.
Si Tong's heart skipped a beat, vaguely feeling that Huo Si already knew something. But she would not lose her composure and let him find out.
Nervously grasping Zhao Wei's hand, Si Tong pleaded, "Mom, I really didn't."
Knowing she wouldn't easily agree, Huo Si made a phone call. A moment later, Xu Jie showed up with the waiter.
"Did you deliberately scald my wife?" Huo Si held the water glass in his hand and looked at the waiter with a terrifying look.
The waiter was already very scared, and when he learned of Huo Si's identity, he was even more terrified. If he deliberately hurt Huo Si's wife, she would not be able to survive in Shangjing.
The waiter fell to his knees with a thud. He pointed at Si Tong with a trembling finger and said in panic, "Mr. Huo, I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken the money out of greed. It was all her fault. She gave me the money to throw the dishes in your wife's face."
Si Tong's face turned pale, her body trembled, and she retorted loudly: "Don't listen to her nonsense, it's not me, I didn't do it!"
