Gu Qingxin quickly tried to avoid it, but she was still unable to escape the ill-fate. A cup of scalding coffee spilled all over her chest, causing a sharp pain which made Gu Qingxin cringe.
"Oh, sorry about that. I tripped over my feet." Huang Jiaxin's assistant's apology lacked any sincerity.
Everyone turned towards them. Xiao Zirui rushed over, anxiously asking, "Are you okay? Did it burn you? Does it hurt?"
Ming Shang, who was just sitting down, abruptly stood up. Even from a distance, he could see that the skin around Gu Qingxin's neck had been scalded red.
His eyes gradually cooled.
"It wasn't on purpose." Huang Jiaxin's assistant quickly left after saying this.
Xiao Zirui was furious. Everyone knew full well she did it on purpose and must have been instigated by Huang Jiaxin.
Luckily, this cup of coffee wasn't freshly brewed; it must have been sitting for a while. If it was boiling hot, it could've scalded her.
The malicious intent of these two women was evident.
