âWhat do you mean thereâs nothing else? Before 1 came, you clearly said that your sister would mock me! I couldnât stand it anymore, so 1 whipped her. Youâre twisting the truth!â Lin Sisiâs temper flared up again. Even though she didnât have a whip in her hand, it didnât prevent her from speaking the truth.
Everyone immediately understood how Su Yurou was trying to manipulate the situation.
Su Yurouâs face flushed and then turned pale. She bit her lower lip. She was secretly annoyed. Lin Sisi was an idiot. She was deceived by Su Yingxue with just a few words!
Tears hung from the corners of her eyes. âSisi, itâs a gratifying thing that you can be cured by my sister. However, Iâve always been there for you, hoping that youâll recover soon. Even if 1 havenât done much, Iâve still put in some effort. Now that youâre blaming me like this, it hurts my heart, sobâ¦â
She had a delicate face that made people dote on her. Now that she was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, people could not bear to blame her.
However, General Lin and his daughter were both straightforward and fiery individuals. They were not fooled by her tactics at all. General Lin even retorted disdainfully, âA woman like you should stop associating with Sisi. 1 donât want her to become a hypocritical schemer like you!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He then turned to remind Su Yingxue, âDr. Su, be careful not to be harmed by such a vile person!â
Su Yingxue nodded. âThank you for your reminder, General.â
Su Yurou felt the rage boiling inside her but couldnât express it. She wished she could spit all over the faces of the father and daughter.
Fool!
A whole family of short-sighted fools!
Once they left, Su Yurou knew she couldnât stay at the clinic any longer. Su Yingxue had already warned her that if she came again, she would get Zi Wei to take action against her.
The man with the sword looked too terrifying, and Su Yurou didnât dare to get anywhere near him. She had no choice but to leave.
Thankfully, today she had only come to the clinic with Lin Sisi, and there were no nobles present. Otherwise, if news of what happened today spread, her true identity would be exposed, and the image she had carefully crafted for many years would be ruined.
However, the humiliation she faced today made her angry just thinking about it. She couldnât swallow her anger.
She went to a garden to vent her grievances, crying her heart out.
After all the commotion, Su Yingxue had only treated Lin Sisi. It was noon, and she was supposed to go for lunch and rest. However, she heard Manager Qi talking to someone outside, âMiss, the doctor needs to rest at noon. You can come back in two hours.â
âPlease tell her that this is the only time Iâm available, and 1 hope Dr. Su can show some mercy to a woman like me,â a gentle voice replied, causing peopleâs hearts to ache.
Manager Qi was in a dilemma.
Su Yingxue stood at the door of the treatment room and smiled at the woman. âMiss, please come in.â
The womanâs eyes lit up, and she hurriedly entered the treatment room, immediately closing the door.
Su Yingxue sat in front of her table, noticing the womanâs peculiar behavior and her unusual attire.
Although it was early spring, it wasnât so cold that one needed to wear so many layers of clothes. The thick garments covered her graceful figure entirely.
Additionally, she wore a veil under her hood, making it impossible for Su Yingxue to see her face.
Su Yingxue could only make assumptions based on the silk and gold embroidery on her clothes, indicating that she came from a wealthy family.
Sheng Ping sat in front of Su Yingxue, clutching her clothes with both hands. Her gentle voice trembled as she said, âDoctor, I⦠Iâm sick.â
Su Yingxue noticed her nervousness and decided not to ask further questions. Instead, she asked her to extend her hand for a pulse examination..
