Is this what heartbreak feels like? The feeling of being abandoned, once again?
Li Qiyu's face was pale, yet her body stood erect, her heart pierced by a thousand arrows, but she dared not allow herself to be vulnerable.
"Miss Li…" the servant whispered a reminder.
Li Qiyu stood in front of the sink, and it was only after being reminded that she remembered she was making milk, with boiling water overflowing as she poured, unaware as it ran over and scalded her fingertips.
"Did you scald yourself? Quickly go rinse it under the sink..."
Li Qiyu put the kettle down and only then did she belatedly feel the burn on her fingers.
As she turned on the faucet to rinse her fingers, it was as if she could feel Bo Yeyuan standing behind her, embracing her, taking her hand and pressing it under the faucet, and tenderly saying,
"Li Qiyu, are you an idiot? To let yourself be scalded by hot water..."
It seemed that she had been burnt like this before, while making soup for him.
