Bai Tang grinned at him, with a hint of fawning and flattery. "I can't compare to you, beauty. You're the most fun!"
Sheng Qi frowned, his face icy. "Looks like you're having a great time!"
As he spoke, Sheng Qi slightly raised his hand.
Bai Tang: "..."
Damn, was he about to hit her?
Instinctively, Bai Tang leaned against the door.
Sheng Qi's raised hand paused mid-air, his gaze fixed on the trace of blood seeping from her forehead. After a few seconds, he lowered his hand.
The car was already cramped, and now Sheng Qi was radiating coldness. Bai Tang felt like he wanted to freeze her to death!
Under Sheng Qi's sinister stare, Bai Tang grinned again. "Beauty, I just went out for a bit of fun. Didn't I come back safe and sound?"
"Safe?!"
Sheng Qi let out a light scoff. His hand, which had just lowered, rose again, not giving Bai Tang a chance to dodge. His fingertips landed on her forehead, gently brushing aside a strand of hair, revealing the wound she had tried to hide.
"You call this safe?" Sheng Qi asked coldly.
Bai Tang forced a smile, thinking to herself: This man isn't just sharp-tongued; his eyes are sharp too!
He even noticed this!
She had just cleaned it up and smoothed it over!
"It's just a little bump!" Bai Tang said with a laugh. "Doesn't hurt at all!"
Her words made Sheng Qi's anger dissipate, leaving only an indescribable heaviness spreading in his chest.
Bai Tang grinned, her face plastered with a fawning smile.
She was terrified that Sheng Qi would settle the score later!
Looking at his cold expression, his tightly pressed lips, and his furrowed brows—everything reminded her that the person in front of her was very angry.
"Beauty, I can explain this!" Bai Tang reached out a paw, gently tugging at the corner of his sleeve, flattering him. "It's all Feng Zi's fault. If he hadn't injured Zhang Xiaochu, I wouldn't have had to compete with him!"
"Besides, he kept pushing me. As your person, how could I let you lose face? I had to teach him a lesson!"
"So, it was for my reputation?" Sheng Qi said coldly.
"Uh..."
Bai Tang was awkward. It seemed like the more she explained, the more dangerous it got!
Blood trickled down her forehead, the vivid red stinging Sheng Qi's eyes.
He reached for the tissues in the car, wiped the blood from her forehead clean, then coldly started the car and sped away.
Bai Tang sat quietly in the passenger seat, cautiously glancing at Sheng Qi, who was radiating coldness.
She wondered how this man would settle the score with her and Zhang Xiaochu over today's incident.
How should she appease him?
But looking at him like this, it didn't seem like he could be easily soothed!
Bai Tang kept her head down, thinking about how to calm Sheng Qi, not noticing that he, who usually drove slowly, was now speeding at a terrifying pace.
A few minutes later, the car stopped at the nearest hospital.
"Get out," Sheng Qi said.
Bai Tang obediently followed behind him, unusually not joking around!
Especially when the doctor treated the wound on her forehead, Bai Tang remained completely expressionless!
Even though the medicine stung when it touched the wound.
She controlled herself well, but physiologically, some reactions were unavoidable.
Sheng Qi noticed that when the doctor touched her wound, she instinctively flinched from the pain. His brows furrowed even more, and his gaze at the doctor turned cold.
The intense stare made the doctor turn his head to meet Sheng Qi's death glare.
The doctor nervously swallowed. Though the other man hadn't said a word, his eyes were a clear warning to be gentler!
Doctor: "..."
Why take it out on him? If you're so capable, don't get hurt!
