The pot, together with the mushroom soup inside, was going to pour over Lita's slender back. Alex was quick enough to wrap his arm around Lita's waist and pull her towards him, and reach out the other hand to give the pot a strike in the air.
The pot flew away, but some of the boiling soup still spilled on Lita's back. She gasped in pain and almost shed tears. Her skin felt burning and hurt! Lita really didn't know how she had the courage to block the hot pot for that man with her own body...
Then some slices of mushroom stuck on the back of her shirt, which went on burning her skin.
Taking off the shirt would take too much time. With a tearing sound, Alex tore off the shirt on Lita's body with his bare hands. Almost at the same time, Alex's shirt was taken off and put on Lita's body, wrapping her slender body with the front of the shirt on her back. Thus she was covered tightly without showing an inch of her skin.
"Okay, Alex, don't." Lita was really embarrassed. Especially in the face of so many volunteers of the orphanage, these intimate actions were unseemly.
"Don't move!" Alex snapped. His strong physique, which he was proud of, was revealed in front of everyone. Fortunately, it was only his upper body.
He kept holding Lita and didn't let go of her waist. He leaned over to her back, looked down through the collars at her back to check if her skin was burnt. Thanks to his prompt action, the creamy skin of her back only had a few reddish marks, nothing serious.
But in comparison to the creamy intact skin on her back, the reddish marks still looked appalling. Alex's eyes flashed a trace of pain. He helped her buttoned up the shirt.
The next second, the shaky Lita was carried on his shoulder. Because Lita was burned on her back, he couldn't carry her in his arms, he had to choose to do it this way.
"Alex... Alex, what are you doing? Put me down..." Lita was so embarrassed that she almost couldn't speak.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, Alex walked out of the restaurant with Lita on his shoulder and headed for the Ferrari parked outside the door.
The volunteers of the orphanage remained on their seats dumbfounded. This way showing off love was too much! of
"Wow, he's so domineering! I like him! Why couldn't I meet a big shot like him?" Uerica exclaimed.
"... It's true love! He doesn't care about the eyes of others at all. He is very very individualistic!" Mason sighed and commented sincerely. "Lita finally found her own home! But it's a little too violent!"
After staying silent for one or two seconds, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Shit! The tycoon said he would treat us, but he left before he paid the bill!"
Everyone was speechless.
Lita was thrown into the Ferrari face down.
This man was too barbaric and violent! She wasn't killed by the burns, was almost killed by falling down! Think about how he tore off her shirt in public, and then put his own shirt on her... Lita was so ashamed that she would have no face to see anyone! Next time she returned to the orphanage, how could she face the group of volunteer colleagues!
And this violent man didn't even say a word before he picked up her and carried her out of the restaurant. They had made a scene.
"Why did you ward off the pot for me? Didn't you know that the soup in it would burn you?" Alex scolded her as he started the sports car. It seemed that it was a very bad thing to ward off the hot pot for him.
Lita just didn't want the man's left shoulder to be injured for a third time. But when she saw the man's unreasonable questioning, she didn't want to explain anything, so she said casually, "Who wanted to ward off the pot for you? I was just unlucky to be hit by it!"
Sometimes retorting could reduce the awkwardness. The man in front of her was a dangerous figure that she had to stay away from, so she didn't want him to misunderstand. She just cared about his injury, and didn't want his injured left shoulder to be hurt again, so she took the risk to use her own body to ward off that hot pot.
Fortunately, Alex handled the situation smartly. The hot soup didn't stay for a few seconds on her back, and he took off her shirt in time.
"You were accidentally hit? Oh, it seems that you are really unlucky! In fact, there is something more terrible than this one - fall in love with me! Lita, I advise you not to do such a stupid thing!" Alex stared at Lita and said coldly.
Fall in love with him? This man had become more and more narcissistic. He was now as proud as a peacock! How could she fall in love with him? How could he have the ability to make her involuntarily fall in love with him? Arrogant!
However, her heart was beating faster inexplicably. She clearly knew that it was not out of a heroic impulse, nor was she accidentally hit by it... What was that then? She suddenly panicked. "Alex, stop the car! I... I want to get out of the car!"
With a screech of break, Alex stopped the car gentlemanly on the side of the road. But the next sentence he said made Lita almost die of anger.
"You can get out of the car, but you have to give my shirt back to me!" Alex put his big hand on the steering wheel gracefully and narrowed his eyes to squint at the shocked and angry woman.
"Give you back the shirt? Do you want me to walk naked?" Lita's eyes widened with anger. This man was rotten to the core.
Alex smiled evilly and said in a low voice, "Don't you wear lingerie? You can take it as wearing a bikini!"
Lita instinctively protected her bosoms with both hands, for fear that Alex would really pull her shirt if he was provoked. She glared at him angrily and said, "Alex! You're so dirty!"
"Since you decided not to get out of the car, then you'd better follow me obediently!" Alex stepped on the gas again, and the powerful sports car immediately rushed toward like an arrow leaving the bow.
Along the way, Lita was silent. She didn't argue with Alex anymore. His naked upper body was so close to her that his heartbeat could be heard, and she could smell the slight scent mixed with cigarette and peppermint.
The scent that came into her nose not only filled her lungs, but also caught all her senses, her heart, and overwhelmed her little by little.
She had to turn her head quickly to look at the scenery outside the window.
While she was looking at the scenery, he looked at her.
But it was just a glance.
"Are you sure that your skin is thicker than mine? You even have the guts to ward off the hot pot for me? It's lucky that you just burnt your back. If your face was burnt, I would request for return!"
He had just checked and found that the woman's back was not burnt seriously. The soup splashed on his hand too. The temperature of the soup was not very hot.
"It's up to your brother if he wants to return me. You don't have a say in this matter!" Lita said.
