Chapter 546 The Control Group 24 in a Sweet Novel of Unrequited Love
Gu Yun didn't have time to deal with the culprit right now, because Yun Qing was in a hurry to pull down his T-shirt to see if his back was injured.
He quickly grabbed the front of his clothes and said urgently, "Qingqing, I'm fine, don't take my clothes off!"
There are so many people!
Yun Qing didn't intend to strip him of his clothes. She simply lifted the back of his shirt, glanced at his back, and only felt relieved after confirming that he wasn't burned.
Then she tore off an apron from a hot pot restaurant and tucked it behind his back, just like she would tuck a baby's sweat towel in, separating the oily and steamy T-shirt fabric.
Although it might damage the image of a cool and aloof school heartthrob, at least it won't stick greasy to your back.
Gu Yun didn't care about his image. He grabbed Yun Qing and examined her carefully. When he saw her red fingers, his eyes turned red. He didn't know if it was from anger or heartache.
Judging from everyone's disheveled state, it's clear that in that situation, it would have been very difficult to completely avoid getting splashed.
And coincidentally, the largest splash of red oil was aimed at Yun Qing's face. In a moment of panic, Gu Yun could only pull her into his arms and turn around to shield her from the splashing red oil.
If Yun Qing obediently nestles in his arms, he should be able to protect her very well.
Gu Yun was only wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt. If it were just some oil spots, it wouldn't be a problem, but if that large patch of scalding red oil splashed onto his back, it would definitely burn him.
In that dramatic moment, Yun Qing reacted incredibly quickly, slipping her hands inside his clothes and stretching open the T-shirt on his back, creating a barrier.
Gu Yun's back is fine now, but she burned one of her fingers.
Actually, only the tips of my fingers look a little red; it's not serious.
It wasn't good luck, but rather that after Gu Yun hugged her, he didn't just stand there; he took two steps forward, thus dodging most of the attacks.
With their combined efforts, the damage was minimized.
Yun Qing felt incredibly proud of herself; her reactions and movements were so quick, she was almost on par with a martial arts master.
However, Gu Yun's face looked too pale, so she didn't dare to ask for praise and could only whisper, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt much."
Gu Yun held her hand, trying to keep his tone gentle so as not to frighten her, "Go take a cold shower first."
Then he said to the others, "Go take a cold shower. We'll talk about assigning responsibility later."
Upon hearing Gu Yun's words, Yu You was eager to say something, but Gu Yun had already pulled Yun Qing away in a hurry.
She wanted to follow, but just then the boss arrived after learning what had happened, blocking her way and asking in a rather unfriendly tone, "What happened?"
Yu You lowered her head in fear, "Boss... Boss..."
Seeing that she was stammering and couldn't give a coherent explanation, the boss didn't have time to argue with her any further. He ordered someone to take the injured person to rinse with cold water, to buy burn ointment, and to check the surveillance footage.
Although his shop isn't particularly big, it has security cameras installed because of a previous dispute. You'll find out what happened once you see them.
Yu You watched everyone bustling about, and could only stand there helplessly, nervously fastening her apron, her burned hands stinging.
Thinking that Gu Yun was so nervous even though Xia Yunqing's face was only slightly red from the burn, she felt a pang of sadness and wanted to cry.
Gu Yun remained silent with a sullen face, but carefully held Yun Qing's injured hand and rinsed it with cold water.
After stealing glances at him several times, Yun Qing poked his waist with her other hand and whispered, "I'm sorry..."
Gu Yun looked at her injured fingertips and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you apologizing? It's not your fault."
Yun Qing hooked her finger around his T-shirt and gently shook it, "Then don't be so fierce..."
Gu Yun: Am I... fierce?
Under his hesitant gaze, Yun Qing nodded slightly, then nodded again.
Then I stretched out a finger and poked his left lip corner upwards, and then poked his right lip corner upwards.
Gu Yun's expression softened a bit. "I wasn't being mean to you. I just couldn't help getting angry. A perfectly good dinner party turned into this, and you and your roommates even got hurt. Girls care about their appearance; what if you get scars..."
He still feels a lingering fear and doesn't dare to think about what would have happened if that scalding red oil had actually splashed onto Yun Qing's face...
Hearing this, Xu Tian, who was rinsing herself at the nearby pool, said, "Senior Gu, don't worry, we're not the type to easily get scars, and it's just a few burns on our arms, not our faces, so it's fine!"
Qian Xiaoying nodded in agreement, "We can't blame you, senior. We booked the place together. We've been to this restaurant before, but who knew we'd be so unlucky to run into such a waiter!"
Zhang Fei couldn't help but say, "I've seen people accidentally splash soup when adding food, but I've never seen anyone throw a plate into the pot. What kind of person did this boss hire?"
Song Ning pointed to herself, then to the two goofy guys beside her, and said, "What about us? We're tough and thick-skinned, aren't we worried about getting scars?"
Gu Yun looked at them and said, "I'm sorry."
His apology made Song Ning uncomfortable. "No, no, no, why are you suddenly being so serious? I'm not used to you being so polite."
"Don't overthink it. Nobody wanted this to happen. Blame the waitress. I told her I didn't need her to help with the food, but she insisted on doing it anyway. I don't know what she was thinking."
After saying that, he clicked his tongue in admiration and said, "You have to admit your sister-in-law is amazing; she's taught you to be so polite."
Gu Yun ignored him, but turned to look at Yun Qing, pinched the hem of her clothes, and asked hesitantly, "Qingqing, was I very impolite before?"
"Nonsense! You've always been very polite!"
Song Ning: ? ? ?
He was stunned for a moment, then nudged his goofy roommate with his elbow and asked, "Was that hot pot broth that just splashed, not tea?"
How come she's acting like a green tea bitch?
Is this because he discovered his girlfriend doted on him and automatically mastered the skills of a "green tea" (a manipulative woman)?
Tsk... Love is terrifying; even the most aloof and unattainable woman can turn into a green tea b*tch.
Only after the group treated the burns did they begin to investigate who was responsible for the incident.
The boss was very nice and didn't shirk responsibility at all, saying that he would compensate as appropriate.
Seeing that Gu Yun's clothes were dirty, they even had someone bring him a staff uniform from the hot pot restaurant to change into.
Yu You, who caused the trouble, remained silent. After Gu Yun changed into his employee uniform, her gaze remained fixed on him.
Gu Yun looks good in anything.
Does this... count as matching couple outfits?
Then her boss yelled at her, "What are you standing there for? Apologize to the customer right now!"
Startled, Yu You, who was lost in thought, immediately felt her eyes well up with tears. "I really didn't mean to..."
Everyone felt uneasy. The apology lacked sincerity and came across as aggrieved, making it seem as if they were the ones bullying them.
Gu Yun carefully held Yun Qing's hand to prevent her from accidentally touching her injured fingertip. Hearing this, he said coldly, "So, you mean that since you didn't do it on purpose, we should just accept our bad luck?"
"Senior Gu, that's not what I meant..."
Senior Gu? Is this waiter also from their school?
Yun Qing couldn't help but look at Gu Yun, "Do you know him?"
Although Yun Qing had seen the photo of Yu You stopping Gu Yun from confessing her feelings, Yu You's appearance was not easy to remember, and half of her face was blurred.
Moreover, after Gu Yun explained, she completely let go of that matter.
She no longer connects Yu You with the girl who confessed her feelings.
Gu Yun shook her head. "I don't know him."
He was so focused on the flowers that he didn't notice who the stranger who confessed to him was or what he looked like. He still doesn't recognize Yu You.
Yu You burst into tears immediately.
He said he didn't know her! He didn't even recognize her!
