Rescue the hero who was imprisoned by the cannon fodder sister

Zhou Niantang felt as if all the blood in his body was flowing backwards.

Who asked the male protagonist to weed under the scorching sun!

She ran out without a second thought.

As soon as she walked out of the first floor door, a heat wave hit her. Coupled with the scorching sun, she felt uncomfortable even to her pores.

After adjusting to the situation for a few seconds, he ran towards the flower bed.

Zhou Niantang loved to play with flowers and plants, so she asked someone to clear an area on one side of the yard and planted some of her favorite flowers herself.

Because of her weak health, she seldom goes out to play, and her greatest pleasure every day is watering and fertilizing the flowers.

And now, she felt that the flower bed became particularly eye-catching because the male protagonist was squatting there weeding.

She stopped just a few steps away from Pei Shi. In the sunlight, she saw that the back of his neck was sunburned.

Well, at this moment her body was hot but her heart was cold.

"Well, don't, don't pull it out." She opened her mouth and realized her voice was trembling.

Just like last night, the boy continued with his actions without even looking up, as if he hadn't heard her words.

Seeing that he turned a deaf ear and pulled out three or four more trees in just a few seconds, Zhou Niantang could not help it.

"Stop it right now!" Her voice got louder and louder, almost a shout.

The boy then stopped and stared at her coldly.

Zhou Niantang then realized that she seemed to have lost control just now. There was nothing she could do, because the sunflower seedlings she was pulling out were the ones she had planted the day before!

But she just yelled at the male lead...

The male protagonist who would destroy her Tianliang King...

"I didn't mean to yell at you. Put down what you're holding and go back."

The boy ignored her, looked away, and continued pulling out a few more seedlings.

Zhou Niantang almost thought he was doing it on purpose. She couldn't stand it anymore and simply slapped his hand away from the young seedling.

"I told you not to pull it out."

She was facing Pei Shi's profile, and the boy's perfect jawline made her stunned for a moment.

Then, Pei Shi turned around and met her eyes. Zhou Niantang remembered the look he gave her in the attic yesterday afternoon and was so scared that she subconsciously took two steps back.

Seeing her reaction, Pei Shi retracted his cold gaze, stood up, and walked towards the attic.

After seeing him leave, Zhou Niantang hurriedly squatted down and picked up the flower seedlings that he had pulled out nearly half of.

The maid Luo Luo ran over and said, "Second Miss, why are you squatting here? Go in quickly. It's so hot. Don't wait to get a heat stroke."

She walked closer and saw the sunflower seedlings in Zhou Niantang's hand. She was surprised and asked, "Why did you pull out the seedlings? Are you going to plant something else?"

"No, Sister Luoluo, please help me put these in a cool place."

Zhou Niantang handed the seedlings in his hand to Luo Luo, and continued to squat down to pick up other ones.

After picking up everything, she stood up. She was already covered in sweat, feeling sticky and uncomfortable.

On the way back with Luo Luo, they happened to meet Aunt Zhuo, who was in charge of cleaning. She greeted Zhou Niantang and looked behind her.

Not seeing anyone, he muttered, "This brat, he's lazy even though he was asked to do some work."

Zhou Niantang clearly heard her call out to Aunt Zhuo who was about to leave: "Did you ask him to weed?"

Aunt Zhuo saw the second young lady talking to her and quickly responded, "Yes, but didn't you say that he was asked to weed? And you also said that you don't keep people who eat for free at home?"

Zhou Niantang: ??? Is that what she said exactly?

At this moment, she happened to see Pei Shi not far away, walking towards this side.

Zhou Niantang: ... How much did he hear just now? That’s not what she meant!

Pei Shi walked past them expressionlessly, went to the flower bed, and took away the small stool he had brought earlier.

Aunt Zhuo saw that he didn't say hello to anyone, and tried to curry favor with Zhou Niantang, "Did you see that the Second Miss didn't say hello either? No wonder the First Miss doesn't like you so much. You always act like someone owes you money..."

"Aunt Zhuo!?" Zhou Niantang couldn't stand it anymore and shouted to stop her.

Aunt Zhuo was startled, but she didn't notice that Zhou Niantang looked unhappy. "What's wrong, Second Miss?"

Pei Shi turned a deaf ear to them and passed by them again. Even though he heard those words, he did not stop at all.

After he left, Zhou Niantang felt that the air around her was less oppressive. She looked at Aunt Zhuo:

"You should be more respectful to him in the future and don't say that to him all the time." After Zhou Niantang finished speaking, she remembered what Aunt Zhuo had just said. She said that when the male protagonist was asked to weed, it was in the dining room. Only she and her sister were present at the time. How did Aunt Zhuo know?

Aunt Zhuo felt a little embarrassed when the usually good-tempered Second Miss said this in front of Lolo.

"Miss Second has never met him, so she doesn't know. Ever since this child came to our house, he has been smiling all day long. We are raising him at home, and we don't let him do any heavy work."

Zhou Niantang corrected her: "Aunt Zhuo, you don't need to say anything about him or what my sister thinks. The owner of this house didn't ask him to work, so don't ask him to do anything in the future."

Apart from Aunt Zhang, Luo Luo had been taking care of her the longest. She knew that she had never said such harsh words to the servants in the house, and she knew that she was really angry.

"Second Miss, the weather is hot, let's go in first." Lolo freed one hand and put her arm around Zhou Niantang.

But in Aunt Zhuo's eyes, she didn't feel that Lolo was helping her out at all. Instead, she felt that she was laughing at her.

But in front of Zhou Niantang, she couldn't get angry and could only nod as a response to what Zhou Niantang had just said.

Aunt Zhuo had been working as a maid in the family before Zhou Niantang was born, so Zhou Niantang could say whatever she wanted, but she had to stop there.

She was pulled back to the living room by Lolo.

After they left, Aunt Zhuo glared fiercely in the direction they left. . . .

Zhou Niantang placed the seedlings in a dark place, covered them with a wet cloth, and waited for the temperature to drop after dusk before replanting them.

After finishing everything, she remembered that she seemed to have offended the male protagonist again.

"Oh." She couldn't help but sigh.

Aunt Zhang learned from Luo Luo that she had just stayed outside for a long time, and hurriedly poured her a cup of pear soup from the kitchen.

As soon as I approached, I heard her sighing, thinking that she was feeling unwell: "Second Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Zhou Niantang answered weakly. She was extremely tired at the moment.

Aunt Zhang looked at her face and was relieved that there was nothing wrong. However, she continued to nag: "It's so hot, it's better not to go out as much as possible. It's easy to get heatstroke."

Seeing that Zhou Niantang was sitting right next to the air outlet of the air conditioner, Aunt Zhang picked up the remote control and turned up the wind direction.

The dripping sound of the air conditioner reminded Zhou Niantang of the attic he went to yesterday, where it was so hot that he couldn't breathe.

She asked Aunt Zhang, "Are all the rooms in the building in the backyard air-conditioned?"

Although she didn't know why the Second Miss suddenly asked this, Aunt Zhang still answered honestly: "Yes, every servant room has air conditioning and heating."

Zhou Niantang felt even more uncomfortable because there was clearly no such thing in the male protagonist's room, and the attic was the hottest place.
