Chapter 1039:1039 I Refuse
The Tao family felt that they should go back first. They couldn’t help much by staying here. Moreover, they believed that Xiao Rou would protect herself, so they left first.
Only Xue Lin, Rou Tan, and a middle-aged woman were left in the narrow corridor.
“Senior Sister, you really change your attitude quickly. You looked like you wanted to kill me just now. I didn’t expect you to change your tone so quickly,” Tan Rou mocked.
Xue Lin clenched her fists and said in a low voice, “Junior Xiaorou, I want to ask you for a favor.”
“What favor?” Tan Rou was interested.
Xue Lin touched her face subconsciously, “I heard that you cured Shang Jin’s face, so I hope you can make the same medicine for me to restore my face to its original state.”
Tan Rou was a little puzzled. Only a few people knew that she had made those medicines for Shang Jin. Shang Jin and the others might have said it, but her family would not say it. So who was the one who said it?
“Who told you that I was the one who cured Shang Jin’s face?” Tan Rou asked.
Xue Lin didn’t want to say, “You don’t have to worry about that.”
Tan Rou turned around and left. “If you don’t want to talk about it, there’s no need for us to continue talking.”
“The doctor told me!” Xue Lin said anxiously. The news of Shang Jin’s face being poisoned by a magical medicine had spread in the hospital.
“My parents went to ask her, but she didn’t tell me. Then, my parents spent a lot of money to find out from the doctor that you were the one who helped her make the ointment.”
Tan Rou was speechless. When she brought the ointment over, she had indeed told the doctor the truth. This was because Shang Jin was staying in the hospital, all the treatment was arranged by the hospital. In order not to take responsibility, the doctor would definitely check the foreign drugs. Tan Rou casually told the doctor about this. She just didn’t expect the doctor to tell Xue Lin’s parents about it.
It was Tan Rou’s fault for being careless. She should have told the doctor not to talk nonsense.
“So what? Senior Lin, we don’t have a good relationship, do we?” Tan Rou asked. “Do you think I’ll treat you?”
“I can give you a lot of money,” Xue Lin said.
“Do I lack money?” Tan Rou only found it funny. She might have been short of money in the past, but ever since she found out that her parents were rich, she no longer insisted on making a small amount of money. She only wanted to do research and make a lot of money. This was also the reason why she rarely treated others in recent years. If it was not her relatives or friends, she would not treat others.
“I know you don’t lack money, but if you can cure me, I’ll definitely be very grateful to you. I will help you if you need anything in the future,” Xue Lin said.
“I don’t need your help. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first. My brother is still waiting for me to bring him back,” Tan Rou said coldly.
Xue Lin finally got this opportunity, she couldn’t give it up easily. The reason why she said that was to let Tan Rou know the real reason for her injury and feel guilty. However, she did not expect Tan Rou to be so ruthless. Even after knowing the truth, she did not seem to have any intention of helping her.
Xue Lin thought of another way. She wanted to beg Tan Rou. As long as Tan Rou could cure her face, she would even kneel down to her.
“Tan Rou, I beg you.” Xue Lin suddenly cried, “Do you know? I don’t dare to face anything that can reflect light, nor do I dare to look anything bright. Every night, I dream that the fire will burn my body and burn my skin. I know you’re a kind person and will definitely help me, right?”
“I am indeed a kind person.” Tan Rou suddenly smiled. “Thank you for your compliment. However, I choose to reject your request.”
Xue Lin was furious, “Tan Rou, I really need your help. I beg you, why won’t you help me? Do you really want me to kneel down and kowtow to you?”
“No need. I wouldn’t accept it anyways. I don’t want you to hurt yourself and blame it on me.” Tan Rou said.
After she finished speaking, Tan Rou took out her phone and glanced at the message. She said, “Senior Lin, I’m sorry. My brother is waiting for me to pick him up, so I won’t chat with you anymore. We’ll talk again in the future.”
