Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Sharon handed the milk tea to Wallace, she took a sip of the hot orange. She suddenly ran to a large trash can a few meters away and spat out the hot orange she had just drunk.
Wallace quickly followed behind Sharon and asked worriedly, âWhatâs wrong? Is it too bad? Or is it too sour? Or is your stomach uncomfortable?â
Sharonâs mouth hurt and her tongue felt numb. Looking at Wallaceâs worried expression, she replied, âNeither. I accidentally scalded myself just now.â
Sharonâs period was coming soon. She was worried that it wouldnât be good to drink something cold, so she asked for a cup of hot orange juice. However, she didnât expect the orange juice to be so hot. She sucked it up with a straw and was scalded.
âIs the scalding bad?â Wallace asked nervously.
âIt shouldnât be serious. Itâs just that my tongue is a little numb,â Sharon replied.
When Wallace heard Sharon say that her tongue was very numb, he knew that it was quite hot. He quickly ran to a nearby stall and bought two bottles of water. When he returned, he unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Sharon. âDrink this water and keep it in your mouth. It can lower the temperature.â
Sharon listened to him and took a sip of water. She originally felt that although she was scalded, it was nothing serious. She didnât expect Wallace to be so meticulous.
After holding it in her mouth for a while, she went to the trash can and spat it out.
âFinish these two bottles of water. Keeping them in your mouth for a while longer will reduce the damage.â
âThereâs no need for so much water.â
âNo, finish these two bottles of water. For normal scalding, you need to rinse the area in cold water for 15 to 30 minutes, or soak it in cold water for half an hour.â Sharon usually didnât pay attention to such details in these aspects, but Wallace knew about them.
âHuh? Do I have to do it for that long?â
âBe good. Youâll recover faster this way. Otherwise, itâll hurt when you eat tomorrow , â Wallace coaxed.
As soon as Sharon heard that her tongue would hurt when she ate, she immediately did as Wallace said. She put the water in her mouth and spat it out when the water became warm. This way, she used up two bottles of water.
âDo you feel better?â Wallace asked.
âMuch better,â Sharon said. Actually, it was still quite painful now, but she didnât want Wallace to worry. Moreover, it was already much better than before.
âWhen you ran to the trash can to spit it out just now, I thought the drink was too sour. Why didnât you spit it out immediately when you were scalded?â Wallaceâs heart ached. âThe distance you ran to the trash can just now was enough to make the burn worse.â
Just now, there were people coming and going around, and everyone was eating. Sharon instinctively felt that she had to spit into the trash can. It was too immoral to spit directly on the ground.
âIâm afraid itâs not good to spit it out on the road,â Sharon said in embarrassment. She also realized that she should spit the drink out immediately when she was scalded.
âThe next time you encounter such a situation, spit it out immediately. By the time you find the trash can and run over, youâll have been scalded. Next time, even if thereâs someone beside you, it doesnât matter if you spit on someone else. Even if you have to spit on someone else, donât burn yourself, do you hear me?â Wallace said seriously.
Wallaceâs heart ached and he was a little angry. He was angry that Sharon didnât know how to take care of herself, but at the same time, he blamed himself. He blamed himself for allowing Sharon to be scalded even though he was by her side, but such things were out of his control.
Sharon was amused by his words.
âGot it,â Sharon said with a smile.
âWhere did you buy this drink from?â Wallace asked. Sharon pointed at a beverage stall not far away and said, âI bought it there.â âIâll go find them.â Wallace walked towards the stall.
Sharon was afraid that he would talk nonsense and find trouble with that stall.
She felt that it wasnât easy for them to run a small business. She quickly pulled
Wallace and said, âHubby, donât go. I was careless.â
Wallace stopped and said seriously to Sharon, âI touched that paper cup just now. Itâs still very hot. The temperature of their hot drink is indeed too high. Moreover, thereâs no hint on the cup that says âbe careful of the hot drink scalding your mouthâ. What if the next person who goes to buy it is scalded again? What if a child is scalded?â
Sharon felt that Wallace made sense, so she let go of his arm.
âDonât worry. Iâm just reminding them.
After all, they didnât do it on purpose..
