As Cristian looked at the red thing, his eyes seemed to be dyed with red. Without giving him time to answer, Anna had already added chili.
Then, chuckling, she said, "Barbecue, it has to be hot and spicy. Otherwise it's no good!"
Finished speaking, with an innocent look she showed her teeth to Serena, which made it impossible to pick on her.
Serena cast a glance at Cristian, then breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed that he had not changed his expression.
But in this situation, Cristian, after eating a piece of lamb soaked in the spicy sauce, completely changed his expression and stood motionless with his fork in his hand. His handsome expressionless face strained to contain itself.
Anna was panting because of the spiciness, but she ate with gusto.
Serena did not dare to eat at first. Silently watching Cristian's face, she saw that his complexion had changed completely and then asked, "You can't eat spicy, can you?"
Cristian frowned and did not respond to her words, although his face was eloquent.
It occurred to Serena to get up and ask for a glass of ice water for Cristian.
"If you can't eat it, spit it out quickly and take a sip of ice water."
Cristian, being well-behaved, had never spit in public. He frowned and remained motionless because Serena had just asked him to spit.
"Spit it out quickly!" Serena unexpectedly reached out her hands toward his mouth. Cristian was more relaxed, and finally Luca took a handkerchief and handed it to him. Cristian spit it out and drank some ice water, but his handsome face blushed. On the one hand, Anna, who continued to eat with gusto, stopped after witnessing the events and watched them in panic.
"Sorry Mr.Cristian, if I have known that you can't eat spicy, I wouldn't add the chili!"
Seeing that he was hurt, Serena gathered her things and said, "Anna, don't fret. You stay here and eat. I'll take him home and I'll come back to you later."
Anna could do nothing but nod in despair, then waved her hand and said, "You don't need to come back here. Be quick. I'll call my father later to pick me up."
"All right, take care."
After Serena finished speaking, she pushed Cristian directly out and got him into the car, telling Luca to drive to the hospital.
Luca was stunned for a while. Was it necessary to go to the hospital for chili?
But seeing Cristian feeling so bad, Luca did not dare ask too many questions, nodded and prepared to leave.
"Let's go home," Cristian said in a feeble voice. Serena answered him, "Aren't we going to the hospital?"
"Am I sick?" asked Cristian. Serena had nothing to say. All right. She was the one who was too agitated.
Along the way Cristian felt sick. His mouth and tongue were hot and this feeling was not at all pleasant. He looked at Serena who sat beside him with a lost look.
Back at Cristian's house. As Serena opened the door and pushed Cristian's wheelchair, she bumped into Leonardo who was just coming out. The three stood facing each other. And Serena, remembering what Leonardo told her earlier in the group, lowered her eyes to avoid meeting his gaze.
Cristian felt disgusted and even didn't watch Leonardo.
The three of them just passed by.
Finally, Leonardo turned to look at Serena's slender figure and clenched his fists reluctantly.
"I'll be there in half an hour."
Half an hour? Serena checked the time, then stood up, "Okay, then I'll prepare a little."
After that, she hung up her cell phone and got up. As she changed her clothes and prepared to leave the room, Cristian glared at her.
Several days had passed since the barbecue incident. And Serena, seeing him like this, wondered if he was still thinking about it.
So she had no choice but to walk around him. But she heard him ask in an icy tone, "Did you move the clothes that are in my closet?"
After hearing that, Serena stopped, looking at him doubtfully.
"What?"
Cristian's gaze was as sharp as a knife: "Did you move my clothes?"
Serena: "Why would I move them?"
Although they used the same closet, they shared it in half. Serena never looked at Cristian's side. How could she move the clothes?
Seeing her innocent look, Cristian said with a slightly annoyed tone, "Are you sure you didn't move them?"
"Cristian, it's not that you lost your things and think I stole them from you? Even if there were valuables in your closet, we live under the same roof. Even if I wanted to steal, I would steal something valuable, right? What would I do with your closet?"
