After returning home, Ou Qingheng took out the stored ice cubes from the refrigerator, wrapped them in a towel, half-crouched in front of Yao Yiyi, and said, "Be patient, it might be a bit cold."
Yao Yiyi looked down at his thoughtfulness and care for her, and said slowly: "It doesn't matter."
Ou Qingheng carefully applied ice to her feet and whispered, "Is it okay?"
"Quite comfortable."
Ou Qingheng didn't say anything more, he just helped her apply ice.
When the ice was ready, he carefully put her feet on the sofa and said, "Don't move around. I'm going to get you a bowl of noodles. You must be hungry since you are so busy with work."
Yao Yiyi reached out and grabbed his hand.
Ou Qingheng turned his head, looked down at her, and whispered, "What's wrong? Does your foot hurt a lot?"
Yao Yiyi shook her head and said, "I've caused trouble for you again, I'm sorry."
Ou Qingheng stroked her cheek with his broad palm and said, "June, I will handle it myself, but I asked Gong Lin to protect you. Where is she?"
"I saw that the work was not finished, so I asked her to pick up An An first. Don't blame her. This is my own fault."
"Don't worry, I'm sensible."
After comforting him, Ou Qingheng went directly into the kitchen.
Yao Yiyi looked at her still swollen feet and sighed lowly.
What are these things? Everyone wants to destroy the relationship between her and Ou Qingheng.
Ou Qingheng cooked two bowls of noodles. The two of them finished eating the noodles in silence. He put the bowl back, washed it, wiped his hands and came out. He walked to Yao Yiyi and squatted down, raising his hand to cover her head. .
"Woman, stop thinking nonsense."
Yao Yiyi took his hand and said, "Qingheng, sit down and talk to me for a while."
Ou Qingheng sat up obediently, carefully pulled her into his arms, and said in a low voice, "What do you want to tell me?"
Yao Yiyi rubbed his chest and suddenly laughed.
"When June was about to kiss me just now, I just felt sick. I also thought that if he dared to kiss me, I would kick him in his important parts and make him an inhumane eunuch for the rest of his life. Fortunately, you are here Come on, save him from dire straits, otherwise he will no longer be a man." Yao Yiyi said pretending to be relaxed.
Ou Qingheng's face was indeed not that ugly.
"You." Ou Qingheng nodded her nose lovingly, "There's really nothing I can do about you. If you don't have your own opinion, I won't worry about you being snatched away by others."
"But that's not me anymore, is it?"
Ou Qingheng just smiled.
Ou Qingheng carried Yao Yiyi upstairs, gave her a bath himself, wrapped her up like a rice dumpling, put her gently on the bed, and rubbed her with medicinal wine.
"Does it still hurt?"
"It's alright. As long as you are so careful, I can go to work tomorrow."
"If it doesn't work out, don't force it, you know?"
"good."
"Go to sleep."
"I haven't gone to see An An yet. I think Gong Lin should sleep with him in the house next door. Can you carry me over to see him?"
Without saying a word, Ou Qingheng picked her up and went to the house next door. He opened the door and looked inside. Seeing that An An was already lying on the bed and asleep, Yao Yiyi smiled and said, "Go back."
Ou Qingheng hugged Yao Yiyi and went back.
After settling Yao Yiyi and making sure that she had fallen into a deep sleep, Ou Qingheng left the bedroom. Gong Lin was already standing respectfully outside the door.
"BOSS." Gong Lin said.
"Come to the study with me."
Gong Lin silently followed Ou Qingheng into the study.
As soon as she entered the study, Gong Lin received a slap in the face. Her face was knocked to the left side, but she didn't even dare to hum.
"Do you know why I hit you?" Ou Qingheng said coldly.
"Young Madam is absent without permission during working hours." Gong Lin said solemnly.
"I know, why did you leave her? What did I say when I sent you to protect her?" Ou Qingheng's tone became even colder.
"Stay with the young lady, protect her, and don't let her get hurt."
"Then do you know that she was almost kissed by another man tonight?"
Gong Lin raised her head, her eyes widened, obviously in disbelief.
"BOSS, it's impossible. Aren't the young ladies still protected by Li Zhi and Zheng Hui? Even without me, with the skills of the two of them, it's impossible for others to get close to the young madam." Gong Lin said hurriedly.
"Yiyi said she didn't like too many people around her, so I asked the two of them to come back. I thought it would be enough with you alone, but I didn't expect you to dare to leave your post without permission. You are getting more and more courageous now. Big.”
Ou Qingheng's words directly made Gong Lin's face turn pale.
"BOSS, I don't know, I didn't mean it." Gong Lin's legs softened and she knelt directly in front of Ou Qingheng: "BOSS, I am willing to accept any punishment, don't drive me away."
"You are no longer suitable to follow Yiyi. You can go back. I will assign you another mission, but you really let me down." Ou Qingheng said.
Gong Lin's face turned even paler. She knew that Ou Qingheng meant to give up on her by saying this. In this way, she would have no status at all in the organization.
People who are abandoned by Ou Qingheng will gradually be alienated by the organization.
The thought of leaving the organization made her feel hopeless.
"BOSS, I was wrong, and I will work hard to correct it. Please, don't let me leave the young lady. I neglected my duty this time, and I can accept any punishment." Gong Lin said urgently.
"No, Yiyi doesn't need your protection here anymore, you can go."
"BOSS, I..."
"roll!"
Gong Lin's face turned even paler, as if she had lost too much blood.
"BOSS, I was wrong, please don't drive me away."
"roll!"
"BOSS, I can explain."
Just when Gong Lin was begging, the door of the study room was opened from the outside, and Yao Yiyi's figure appeared in front of them.
"Young Madam." Gong Lin immediately stopped pleading and said seriously.
Yao Yiyi glanced at Gong Lin, who was still kneeling on the ground, walked in and said: "Qingheng, I asked Gong Lin to leave. You once said that everyone sent to protect me must listen to me. I You think I still have the right to send her, right? If you are really weird, just blame me, there is no need to implicate an innocent person."
Ou Qingheng walked over and whispered: "Aren't you sleeping? Why are you awake?"
"I woke up when I felt there was no warmth around me. If I didn't wake up, it might be because I had hurt innocent people." Yao Yiyi looked at Gong Lin and said, "Gong Lin, you go out first, I will do this." I explained it clearly to Qingheng in person."
"Young Madam, I have indeed neglected my duties in this matter. I'm sorry. You can punish me if you are angry, but I am sincerely willing to be by your side." Gong Lin got up from the ground, lowered her head, and said respectfully.
"It's really none of your business, just go out first."
"yes."
After Gong Lin left, Yao Yiyi looked up at Ou Qingheng and said, "Qingheng, if you are angry, you can tell me that there is really no need to be so harsh on your subordinates. I don't want them to be so afraid of you."
Ou Qingheng sighed and said, "Woman, I don't want you to see my dark side, but I didn't expect you to see it anyway. If you like her, I won't punish her."
"Did I make things difficult for you?"
"There's nothing embarrassing about it. I just don't want you to get hurt. I don't allow you to have any accidents."
Yao Yiyi lowered his head.
"Qingheng, I'm sorry, my sometimes soft-heartedness has made things difficult for you."
Ou Qingheng hugged her waist and said, "I won't make it difficult for you. It's getting late. Go to bed. I promise you will see her again tomorrow."
Yao Yiyi nodded.
Back in the bedroom, Ou Qingheng hugged Yao Yiyi and lay on the bed. The two were very close to each other, but Yao Yiyi clearly felt that there were still some conflicts between them because of something that happened, but it was just too small. , so they deliberately ignored it, or they just didn't want to mention it.
Yao Yiyi turned around, hugged Ou Qingheng's waist, and said softly: "Qingheng, I will protect myself carefully so that you don't have to worry."
"I don't blame you, I just feel that I have taken so many measures, but in the end, men with intentions still have an opportunity to take advantage of it. If the killing is not repayable, I will kill them." Ou Qingheng said.
Yao Yiyi quickly covered his mouth and said: "Qingheng, no, I know you have the ability to make someone disappear silently, but I don't want your hands to be stained with blood because of me, no matter who it is. , are not qualified to decide whether a person is dead or alive."
Ou Qingheng grabbed the back of her head and said in a low voice: "Woman, you are so kind-hearted, I really don't know what to do with you."
"I'm not kind. I just don't want you to be stained with blood. I only care about whether you are good. For other things, I don't have such a big mind."
Ou Qingheng's lips curled up, and his mood miraculously improved.
"Go to sleep, I promise you, try not to take any lives."
Yao Yiyi nodded gently.
