Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Wishing It Was Her Who Got Burned!

In her desperation, Gu Qiaoqiao had co up with this plan, so she hadn’t thought about dodging at all.

Thus, the back of her hand got scalded and instantly turned red.

This sudden incident caused the three people in the room to jump in shock.

Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong were stunned.

But Luh Fei reacted the fastest, hurrying over, not even caring about the pot of at, and anxiously asked, “Sister-in-law, did you get burned?”

At this ti, Luh Fei’s voice was sowhat loud, and Qin Yize in the room suddenly heard it.

His eyebrows furrowed, he quickly strode towards the kitchen.

Then he saw Gu Qiaoqiao sitting on the floor, a pot of at all spilled on the red brick ground.

And Gu Qiaoqiao’s face was pale, seemingly quite frightened.

Qin Yize imdiately noticed Gu Qiaoqiao’s sowhat swollen hand.

He strode over, squatted down, grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, and frowned, “Why weren’t you more careful?”

Then he directly pulled Gu Qiaoqiao towards the bathroom.

Choo Lan’s heart filled with sourness as she stared intently at Qin Yize’s large hand carefully holding Gu Qiaoqiao, wishing she was the one who had been burned!

But Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t go to the bathroom. She quickly struggled free, not waiting for Luh Fei to clean up the braised at and potatoes spilled on the ground; she simply went to grab a broom and quickly swept the braised at and potatoes into a pile.

Now, even if they wanted to pick it up and eat it, it seed impossible.

Especially for Choo Lan, her eyebrows deeply furrowed as she quickly said, “This dish can’t be eaten anymore.”

Zhu Xiaohong also nodded, “Yes, it’s a pity, there are too many bacteria on the ground, just throw it away.”

Qin Yize imperceptibly raised his eyebrows.

He gazed at Gu Qiaoqiao, feeling that sothing was not quite right.

But he couldn’t pinpoint it at the mont.

So, he took a bucket normally used for miscellaneous items in the kitchen and a scrubber, and together with Gu Qiaoqiao, threw the at and potatoes into the tal bucket.

At that mont, Gu Qiaoqiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did she feel her head covered in sweat.

And her hand, that’s when it started to feel sowhat painful.

Qin Yize hesitated no longer; this ti he directly pulled Gu Qiaoqiao into the bathroom.

In a cabinet above the bathroom, there were so commonly used dicines.

He opened a small box, found so ointnt, put Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand under the faucet to rinse with cold water, then gently dried the water stains with a clean gauze.

After checking and assuring there was no serious issue, he applied a layer of ointnt and softly asked, “Does it still hurt?”

Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head, her voice sowhat hoarse, “It’s ok, it doesn’t hurt anymore…”

Then, looking towards the kitchen, she said to Qin Yize, “I’m fine. You go entertain them in the living room. I’ll fry a few more dishes, it will be ready soon.”

“Can your hand handle it?”

Gu Qiaoqiao waved her hand, smiled, and said, “It’s my left hand, it doesn’t matter.”

Then she stopped talking to Qin Yize and left the bathroom, heading back to the kitchen.

Seeing Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong looking at her with strange expressions, she thought to herself that these two got what they wanted.

And with that thought, Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart sank, she could confirm that the mont she had moved the pot of at from the stove to the table, there had been no poison in it.

However, within ten minutes or so, soone had poisoned it.

Who could have poisoned it?

Choo Lan, Zhu Xiaohong, could it be possible for these two?

They wouldn’t do such a thing to dig their own graves, would they?

But then, appearances can be deceiving.

Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t vouch for their character.

But at that mont, another person ca to Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind.

Zhao Ying!

It was Zhao Ying who ca in a hurry and left just as quickly.

Qin Yize’s deep gaze fell on Gu Qiaoqiao.

He knew that Gu Qiaoqiao’s actions must have special significance,

she couldn’t possibly be incapable of carrying a pot of at.

Moreover, the most important thing was her expression.

It wasn’t one of regret or annoyance, but of relaxation!

This was very strange.

But now was not the ti for questions, Qin Yize simply paused for a mont and then turned to walk into the living room.

Afterward, Gu Qiaoqiao placed her right hand on her forehead, pretending to rub it as if she had a headache.

She silently channeled spiritual energy into her fingertips.

This way, Gu Qiaoqiao felt her mind gradually clearing up.

Her logical thinking also normalized step by step.

Gu Qiaoqiao then placed her right hand on her left, pretending to rub the spot that got burned earlier.

Luckily, all these movents were nothing out of the ordinary.

Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong, although staring intently at her, didn’t notice what she was really up to.

But they felt quite satisfied in their hearts.

They now had sothing to talk about.

This Gu Qiaoqiao really was clumsy, couldn’t even carry a pot without falling flat on her face.

Thinking this, Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong exchanged glances, unable to suppress the amusent on their faces.

However, after Gu Qiaoqiao took a deep breath and the spiritual energy slowly healed the burned area, she quietly lowered her hand.

Then Gu Qiaoqiao fixed her gaze on the two won.

The two also stood by the window watching her.

Their faces were filled with schadenfreude.

Gu Qiaoqiao looked at the ground, then addressed Zhu Xiaohong, “You really know how to keep the fire going, but you’re not efficient at all in your work. The kitchen is already small, and you had to place these firewoods in the path where people walk. If I hadn’t been trying to avoid those firewoods, why would I have fallen?”

“That’s really unhelpful!” she added.

Gu Qiaoqiao’s deanor was very serious.

After all, she was their sister-in-law.

So it was normal for her to speak to them this way.

Moreover, from the look on their faces, Gu Qiaoqiao knew, as soon as she left through that door, the whole residential compound would know about this incident.

Gu Qiaoqiao did not wish to stew in such frustration.

So she simply warned the two.

Not to think about only saving themselves. If it weren’t for Zhu Xiaohong’s sloppy work, she wouldn’t have fallen, so Zhu Xiaohong couldn’t extricate herself from bla either.

Zhu Xiaohong’s mouth opened in surprise; she hadn’t expected Gu Qiaoqiao to pin the bla on her at this ti.

That was just unreasonable.

Then Zhu Xiaohong looked at the wood beside the stove, and indeed, it was very close to where Gu Qiaoqiao had walked.

She blinked her eyes, listening to the hearty laughter coming from the living room, Zhu Xiaohong wisely kept silent.

At this ti, the people in the living room still had no idea that such a dramatic scene had unfolded in the kitchen.

After warning the two, Gu Qiaoqiao no longer hesitated and started skillfully cooking the dishes swiftly.

Soon, the tempting aroma of food wafted through the kitchen once more.

Choo Lan stood at the kitchen window, suddenly feeling very superfluous.

With a somber gaze, she observed the slender girl wearing an apron, and she finally understood what a hostess was.

And what it truly ant to be a hostess.
