Chapter 16



"You're burned!" Jiang Qi noticed his burned hand at a glance, and grabbed Shen Mo's burned hand without thinking.

Seeing that she was not burned, Shen Mo glanced at his hand and said nonchalantly, "Oh, I'm fine, just a minor injury. It will be healed in two days. The noodles are ready. I don't know how to cook anything else. Just eat it first."

Jiang Qi didn't care about food. She frowned and said seriously, "The burn is not a minor injury."

"Come here."

Jiang Xi grabbed Shen Mo's hand. Such a big man moved just by her light pull.

He went to the water pipe, turned on the faucet, and then put Shen Mo's hand under the faucet to rinse it.

The burning sensation on my body soon faded away.

Five minutes later, Jiang Gui turned off the tap.

It's a pity that there is no ointment. If there is ointment for treating burns, you won't have to rinse like this.

Jiang Xi raised his eyes and asked him, "Are you okay? Does it still hurt?"

Shen Mo saw that her delicate eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her beautiful eyes were full of worry. After flushing the water, she even grabbed his wrist and looked carefully at where he was burned.

They were so close that he could even smell her delicate fragrance.

Jiang Xi had red phoenix eyes, which were slightly raised, making her charming without realizing it.

At this moment, those beautiful eyes were filled with worry.

From the time they met until now, Jiang Xi had never approached him on his own initiative, but when his hand was grabbed, Shen Mo felt as if he was burned to the point of burning, with heat surging all over his body.

My scalp felt numb, and I hesitated as I opened my mouth. "No, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Jiang Xi exhaled, "It's good that it doesn't hurt anymore."

The degree of burns can be serious or minor. Shen Mo's small burn should only be a first-degree burn. As long as it is treated properly, it will not have any impact and will not even leave a scar.

But Shen Mo was burned and it was related to her, so she was responsible.

Jiang Liu said, "Let's eat."

Shen Mo picked up two bowls of noodles from the stove again, but time was running out and the noodles had already clumped together.

Without thinking, Shen Mo said, "I'll go find Sister Li and borrow some noodles for you."

Jiang Xi grabbed him and said, "No, no, it's not that you can't eat it."

Shen Mo, "But it's already clumped up, and the soup is gone."

Jiang Xi glanced at the bowl of noodles and said, "It's still edible even if the soup is gone. I'm not that frivolous."

Shen Mo said seriously, "Girls can be coquettish."

My sister has never suffered from any hardship since she was little. She has become arrogant and willful because of her habit. She always wants the best of everything she eats and uses, and she gets angry whenever she feels uncomfortable.

Shen Mo was annoyed by her, and later his sister was sent to the countryside with his parents. Without his sister to quarrel with him, he knew that it was okay for his girl to be a little coquettish, as he could spoil her anyway.

The daughter-in-law should be pampered even better.

Jiang Xi curled his lips.

Girls can be coquettish.

This is the conclusion I came to after talking to so many girlfriends.

Jiang Xi snatched the bowl of noodles from Shen Mo's hand, turned around and walked towards the main room.

Shen Mo followed behind her.

There was a table and stools in the main room, and two people sat at the table and ate noodles.

Jiang Liu had a cold face throughout the meal.

As Shen Mo was eating, he noticed that she was in a bad mood, so he asked cautiously, "Is it too unpalatable? I'll bring you food from the cafeteria tomorrow."

Jiang Xi realized that this was the second time today that she had feelings for Shen Mo, and it was because she guessed that Shen Mo knew another woman.

Is there such a thing as possessiveness in her?

Jiang Xu ate the last mouthful of noodles and asked as if nothing had happened: "Shen Mo, how come you know so much about the skin care products that girls use?"

"I have a younger sister." Shen Mo said honestly, "Before my family was sent down to the countryside, my younger sister often used those things, saying that girls need to use those things if they want to have better skin. Later, she was sent down to the countryside, so I often bought these things for her and sent them to the countryside."

Jiang Xi was surprised, "You have a sister?"

Seeing her surprise, Shen Mo remembered that he had not yet introduced his family situation to Jiang Qi. "Yes, I have a younger sister. My family situation is a bit complicated. Five years ago, my family was reported, and except for me, everyone else was sent down to Dahe Village, Lin County, Jinjiang."

Jiang Xi was stunned and asked Shen Mo, "Are they okay now?"

She knew what being sent down meant, which was almost the same as exile in ancient times.

Jiang Xi never expected that Shen Mo's family had been sent down to the countryside. In that era, those who were sent down to the countryside were all intellectuals, which meant that Shen Mo's family was not bad.

Hearing Jiang Qi talking about his family, Shen Mo felt something suddenly filled his heart.

Now that the most controversial period has passed, his family will be reinstated sooner or later.

Shen Mo would communicate with his family whenever he had time, and after learning some of the situation, he nodded and said, "I've communicated with them. Don't worry, they're fine. They should be able to come back in a year at most."

Jiang Xi couldn't help asking, "Why haven't you thought about writing to me?"

"I wrote to you." Shen Mo said, "but you never replied."

Jiang Xi was stunned.

Did Shen Mo write a letter to her?

So she mistook Shen Mo!

She soon realized that the money sent by Shen Mo had not even reached her, so how could the letter reach her?

The only person who ruined the original owner's life is her reborn sister, Jiang Ting.

When she read the novel, she felt that the heroine Jiang Ting was not a heroine at all. For her own brilliant future, she ruined her younger sister's life.

It's a pity that she came to the capital and Jiang Ting was on the right track, otherwise she would force Jiang Ting to spit out the money she had eaten!

As for why Shen Mo didn't take her to his home, it was because he had no other choice. Everyone in his family had been sent down to the countryside, so how could he take her to live with them and suffer?

So, she had misunderstood Shen Mo from the beginning to the end.

She looks at a person from a God's perspective and with her inherent thinking. At first, she thinks that the other person is just a paper man whose behavior is not pleasing, so she instinctively dislikes him and wants to divorce and stay away from him.

Now she no longer has a God's perspective, and she is already in the situation and knows the other party's character well.

It was rare for Jiang Xing to feel guilty towards someone. "I didn't know any of this."

"It's okay, it's not your fault." Shen Mo saw that her face was full of guilt, and said without any falsehood, "It's me who hasn't looked for you in these years."

He knew that he had a wife, but at that time he could not take her to join the army. It would be better for her to stay at her parents' house temporarily and bring her back when the situation at home turned against him.

Jiang Xi's unilateral misunderstanding was resolved, and she felt embarrassed instantly. She stood up and said, "I'll go wash the dishes."

"I'll go." Shen Mo took her bowl first, "It's getting late, go wash up and rest."

Without waiting for Jiang Xi to say anything, he had already strode out of the hall with the bowl in his hand.
