Chapter 519 Drinking Water to Cover Up
On the open-air terrace on the second floor, Li Chuyue coughed again, causing everyone present to look over curiously.
However, except for Ou Jinghuan who was sipping wine with his head down, no one looked over, nor did he gently stroke Li Chuyue's back like he did when Li Chuyue coughed just now.
He remained silent, secretly laughing at the bad things he had done before, and also secretly gloating at the provocation he had just received.
He thought Li Chuyue should now understand his intention of asking Xu Zhishan not to ask too many questions. After all, he knew Xu Zhishan best.
"Chu Yue/Sister Chu Yue, are you okay?"
At this time, Xu Zhishan, Chen Yaxin and Ou Junli, who were unaware of the situation, all looked at Li Chuyue with concern and asked in unison.
Jiang Yunhan, Xiao Zhuo and Xiao Xiao, who were sitting on the sofa next to them, also looked at Li Chuyue with concerned expressions.
Jiang Yunhan glanced at Li Chuyue's flushed cheeks and asked:
"Miss Li, could you be catching a cold?"
At this time, Ou Jinghuan, knowing that Li Chuyue was fine, put down the wine glass in his hand.
Ou Jinghuan did not offer any help this time, but silently took a bottle of mineral water from the table, unscrewed the cap, and handed it to Li Chuyue to relieve her cough.
Li Chuyue looked at the mineral water that suddenly appeared in front of her. She followed Ou Jinghuan's bony hand and looked at Ou Jinghuan's eyes that were obviously gloating.
This time, she didn't feel any emotion, but instead felt a little embarrassed.
After all, it was she who gave Xu Zhishan the opportunity to continue asking her questions, and it was she who insisted on taking the trouble to help Ou Jinghuan solve his needs today.
Therefore, seeing that Ou Jinghuan seemed to be gloating and had no intention of helping to explain for her, Li Chuyue did not say a word to Ou Jinghuan.
She covered her mouth and coughed lightly, looking a little embarrassed as she took the mineral water from Ou Jinghuan.
After drinking a few sips of water to relieve the pain, she reached out to take the bottle cap from Ou Jinghuan's other hand, looked up at everyone who cared about her, and said with a smile:
"It's okay, I just drank too fast and choked a little.
I drank some water and I feel much better now. Miss Jiang, don't worry about me. Let's continue eating barbecue!"
Li Chuyue finished her explanation, but when she tried to grab the bottle cap, Ou Jinghuan grabbed her hand.
Just when she wanted to tell Ou Jinghuan that she just wanted to take the bottle cap, Ou Jinghuan reached out and took the mineral water from her hand and whispered:
"Don't cover it yet. I'll hold it in case you need water to relieve the embarrassment later."
Li Chuyue was seen through by Ou Jinghuan at a glance. She was coughing because she was embarrassed and her body reacted like a conditioned reflex.
However, when she heard Ou Jinghuan's sure look that he would cough again, she thought that Ou Jinghuan was too sinister!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Ou Jinghuan was too mean, so she turned her back to Ou Jinghuan and refused:
"I do not need!"
Ou Jinghuan looked at Li Chuyue's suddenly arrogant back, his thin lips slightly curled, and the mineral water in his hand was really not covered.
At this time, everyone saw that Li Chuyue was really fine, and they even suddenly became angry with Ou Jinghuan next to him.
Although people who didn't know the specific situation felt something was a little strange, they stopped worrying after confirming that Li Chuyue was fine.
But after Li Chuyue turned her back to Ou Jinghuan, she sat face to face with Xu Zhishan, who was still looking at her with a worried look on her face.
Li Chuyue looked at Xu Zhishan who was still waiting for an answer, pretending to be confused and asked:
"Huh? Didn't you say you were fine? Why are you still looking at me like that?"
Xu Zhishan narrowed her eyes, then grabbed Li Chuyue's hands that she wanted to hide, and said with concern:
"Chu Yue, you haven't told me yet! Why did your hand become like this?"
Li Chuyue also looked down at her palms, which were still slightly red, swollen, and a little scratched, and said with a smile:
"Hahaha, your brother and I were away for a while, and this hand is..."
Before Li Chuyue could finish her words, Xu Zhishan, who reacted extremely quickly this time, widened her eyes and exclaimed in surprise:
"Wow! You're not helping my brother fight, uh! Uh!"
Suddenly, Xu Zhishan covered her mouth with her hands, which was even more shocking than Li Chuyue.
But Xu Zhishan's voice still made everyone sitting around look over.
On the side, Ou Jinghuan's ears turned slightly red. He lowered his head and stared at the mineral water in his hand.
He shook the mineral water bottle slightly, and the calm water in the bottle began to stir, making him feel as if he was back to what happened in the hot spring pool not long ago.
Li Chuyue was not in the same good mood as Ou Jinghuan to reminisce. She immediately leaned over to Xu Zhishan's ear, who had already begun to laugh, and lowered her voice, explaining hurriedly:
"Listen to me first! Your brother and I were walking on an unlit road, and I accidentally fell! I fell!"
After Li Chuyue emphasized it many times, she slowly released her hand that was covering Xu Zhishan's mouth.
Xu Zhishan looked at Li Chuyue, whose face was flushed red, and then glanced at Ou Jinghuan, who was sitting behind Li Chuyue, with a teasing look on her face, and asked:
"Oh, so you fell on a dark road?"
Just when Li Chuyue was about to respond with a very affirmative look and tone, Xiao Zhuo, who heard Xu Zhishan's words, suddenly slammed the table in anger.
Xiao Zhuo recalled the hot spring pool in the villa that was not lit and the scary light that scared her to tears, while complaining loudly to Li Chuyue and Xu Zhishan:
"That's right! Xiao Xiao and I were also nearly killed because of the lights in the resort owner's villa!
The lights that should have been on all the time weren't on! The lights that shouldn't have been on suddenly started flickering on!
I don't know why the owner of this resort is so stingy. He makes so much money from the resort, but he doesn't even fix the lights here. He should really file a complaint!"
Angry Xiao Zhuo blurted out what happened between her and Xiao Xiao when they went to Li Chuyue's exclusive villa.
"puff!!!"
Suddenly, except for Xiao Zhuo, Xiao Xiao, Jiang Yunhan and Ou Jinghuan, everyone else who heard Xiao Zhuo's complaints made sounds of shock.
In particular, when Tang Hezi and Liu Cuirong heard someone complaining about the boss in front of him, they both froze and observed Li Chuyue's expression out of the corner of their eyes.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Li Chuyue looked embarrassed and started coughing for the third time. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at those curious eyes.
This time, without saying much, Ou Jinghuan handed over the mineral water he had prepared long ago and touched Li Chuyue's shoulder with the back of his hand.
Li Chuyue understood what he meant and immediately turned her back to Xu Zhishan who had a smirk on her face. She took the mineral water tacitly and began to drink it silently.
On the side, Ou Jinghuan watched Li Chuyue constantly pouring water on herself. He shook his head helplessly, and then reminded softly:
"Drink slowly, don't choke."
Hearing this, Li Chuyue slowed down her drinking. She was too embarrassed to look at Ou Jinghuan, so she could only continue drinking water to hide her embarrassment.
At this time, Xu Zhishan looked at Li Chuyue's fleeing back, then glanced sideways at Xiao Zhuo and Xiao Xiao who were looking angry.
After she thought for a moment, a light bulb went off in her head and she finally figured something out. She smiled and her facial expression became more expressive.
