Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

239 239 Still not giving up

A week before the monthly exam, Li Jia’s sentence had been announced.. As Li Jia was only 17 years old, the court gave her a lighter sentence of one year and nine months in prison and compensated the victim 23000 Yuan for mental damage.

How could Li Jia have the money to pay for it? Besides, who would pay for it if she went in? Li Jia’s mother, Li Wen, dropped out of school when she was 15 years old. She had not had a proper job for years. Now that Li Jia was in jail, she had no one to rely on. So, she looked for Tan Jing again, hoping that Tan Jing could pay the money.

Tan Jing had enough of Li Wen’s constant demand for money, but she was afraid that Li Jia would expose the matter, so she could only continue to give Li Wen money. This time, Li Wen asked her for money again. She didn’t want to give her any more, so she found a job for Li Wen to be a nanny at her house. First, it was to save money, and second, she could keep Li Wen by her side, so that Li Jia wouldn’t go back on her statement in prison.

Li Wen was very dissatisfied with this. She had never been a nanny before, but she had no choice now. She could not live in the sanatorium without money. Moreover, she did not have a house in the city. For years, she had been living in other people’s houses and so in the end, she accepted Tan Jing’s arrangement.

Now that the matter was over, Tan Rou could focus on treating Zhuang Liu and old master Lu. Today was the day to perform acupuncture on old master Lu, so Zhuang Liu came to take her to the hospital.

“Are you hot?” Zhuang Liu handed Tan Rou a bottle of water. “Drink some water to moisten your throat.”

Tan Rou saw Zhuang Liu and suddenly took out a beautifully wrapped fruit candy from her pocket. “I’ll treat you to this.”

Zhuang Liu was stunned. “You brought it for me?”

“I brought it especially for you.” Tan Rou said. When she saw the candy in the living room, the first person she thought of was Zhuang Liu, so she brought the candy to school. She didn’t like them anyway.

Zhuang Liu was happy to hear that it was for him. He took the candy solemnly and held it like a treasure. “Det in the car first. It’s hot outside.”

When Lu Qing came out, he saw Tan Rou’s back as she got into someone else’s car. Although he didn’t see the man’s face, he could be sure that this was the man who had the scandal with Tan Rou.

Looking at the notebook in his hand, Lu Qing was a little disappointed. He had originally wanted to discuss a difficult problem with Tan Rou. After all, the monthly test was coming up. In the end, he was one step slower and the man got there first. Who was that man? Tan Rou said it was an older brother, but what older brother was so mysterious?

“Young master!” While Lu Qing was still in a daze, his chauffeur had already driven the car over. “It’s hot outside. Get in!”

Since Tan Rou had left, there was no point for Lu Qing to stand under the hot sun. So, he opened the door and was prepared to get in.

“Umm, Lu Qing…” Tan Jing suddenly appeared and stood beside the car with her red face. “My family’s driver didn’t come to pick me up today. Can I ask for a ride home?” She deliberately stayed in the sun for a long time before coming over, which would make her look even more pitiful.

Lu Qing glanced at her. He didn’t want to be mean to her, nor did he want to cause unnecessary trouble. If his chauffeur had driven her today, then there would be news of him and Tan Jing’s resurgence in the afternoon without even needing to wait the next day.

“No, it wouldn’t be in the same direction.” Lu Qing rejected Tan Jing, “I’m not going home. I want to go to the hospital to see my grandfather.”

Tan Jing did not give up. “Then I’ll go and visit Grandpa Lu too.”

Just then, Song Lin’s car drove over from the opposite side. Song Lin rolled down the window and waved at tan Jing. “Jingjing, I’ll send you home.”

Tan Jing was scolding Song Lin in his heart, but she did not show it on his face. “There’s no need for that, we agreed to go…”

“Grandpa doesn’t like it when so many people go to see him,” Lu Qing urged the chauffeur to start moving. “Let’s go. If we’re late, Grandpa will get angry again.”

The driver stepped on the accelerator and drove the car away. Tan Jing stood by the side of the road, sweating all over. She was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet.

“Jingjing, get in the car!” Song Lin was still inviting her into the car.

She really didn’t want to sit in the same car as Song Lin, but now that Lu Qing had gone far away, she would have to take a taxi back if she didn’t accept a ride from Song Lin. That would be beneath her status! Looking at the scorching sun, Tan Jing gritted her teeth and got into Song Lin’s car.

“Thank you, Song Lin.” Tan Jing was sitting far away from him.

In Song Lin’s eyes, she was shy and did not dare to approach him. This made him very happy. He asked her if she was hot and if she wanted to eat anything to cool down the temperature. He did not stop chattering the entire time.

Tan Jing declined his good intentions one after another. Although he was very enthusiastic, she just wanted to stay away from him.
