Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss Chapter 136 Heroine

136 136 Heroine

Although Tao Qi was very uncomfortable, he was still a little timid and did not dare to make a sound. He was also afraid of implicating Tan Jing.

After all, her family already had a very bad impression of Tan Jing. If they knew that he had fallen sick after Tan Jing had taken him out to eat, they would definitely blame her!

Tao Qi gritted his teeth and decided to bear with it a little longer. Maybe he could endure it. Wasn’t it just a little itchy? He was already a man and so he definitely could take it!

When Tan Rou couldn’t stop worrying and came up with a gla.s.s of milk to ask if Tao Qi was feeling better, Tao Qi was already in the bedroom, silently crying from the pain and itchiness on his body.

Tan Rou knocked on the door. “Tao Qi, are you feeling alright? Come and have a gla.s.s of milk.”

Tao Qi heard Tan Rou’s voice in his daze. In an instant, it was as if a life saviour had arrived. ‘Tan Rou found herself uncomfortable! She’s here to find me!’

Tao Qi almost couldn’t help but cry for help. However, at the thought of Sister Jingjing, as well as his parents, Tao Qi cowered again. He bit his lip hard and refused to speak.

Tan Rou was a little confused at the door. It was still early. Could Tao Qi have fallen asleep so quickly?

Tan Rou was still worried, so she knocked on the door again. “Tao Qi, are you asleep? Say something, what’s wrong?”

Seeing how Tan Rou was so persistent, Tao Qi felt both happy and sad. He could only endure the pain and reply in a trembling voice, “I want to sleep! I don’t want the milk!”

As soon as Tao Qi said this, Tan Rou’s eyes turned cold and her expression became serious.

Tao Qi’s tone didn’t sound right. Why did he sound like he was crying? Or was he suppressing something? Thinking of Tao Qi’s abnormally red face just now, Tan Rou frowned. She had been careless. Tao Qi might really be sick!

Tan Rou quickly knocked on the door. “Tao Qi! Open the door! Are you not feeling well? Quickly let me see!”

Tao Qi stubbornly endured in the room, not wanting Tan Rou to see him like this.

He was afraid that she would be smug again and might even say, ‘I told you not to eat with Tan Jing and now you’re sick! You deserved it!’

Thinking of this, Tao Qi was even more unwilling to let Tan Rou in. Besides, after enduring for so Long, Tao Qi’s limbs were already weak, and he didn’t have the strength to get up and open the door for Tan Rou.

Tao Qi cried out weakly, “Don’t meddle in other people’s business, go quickly! I don’t want you to come in!”

Tan Rou took a deep breath. She didn’t want to waste any more time with Tao Qi. She still didn’t know what was wrong with him, so she had to get in as soon as possible. Most illnesses were a race against time.

Tan Rou didn’t say anything. She put the milk aside, raised her long leg, and kicked the door lock.

With a ‘bang’, the door lock was broken. Tan Rou reached out and pushed, opening Tao Qi’s door.

Tao Qi lay in bed, thinking he was hallucinating. Otherwise, how could Tan Rou break in to save him like a heroine in a movie?

The moment the door opened, Tan Rou stood there against the light like a warrior. She looked so handsome!

Tao Qi was still in a daze. It wasn’t until Tan Rou walked over quickly and pulled him out of bed, examining him from head to toe, that Tao Qi knew that this wasn’t an illusion. Tan Rou had really broken in to save him!

Tao Qi’s heart was filled with mixed feelings. He was worried that his illness would be exposed, but he was also happy that he was finally saved.

Everyone had the instinct to survive. No matter how timid Tao Qi was and how he didn’t dare to make a sound, he had already vaguely sensed that his illness wasn’t a minor one. He wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer.

When he rejected Tan Rou, he was just being stubborn. In fact, he had long hoped that Tan Rou would come in and help him.

Now that Tan Rou had really seen through his pretence and kicked the door open to rush in, Tao Qi couldn’t hold it in any longer. The sadness and fear of his illness, the grat.i.tude and reliance he had for Tan Rou, all burst out, making him cry out loud, “What took you so long? You even broke my door … Huhuhu…. You have to pay for my door. Wait, does your foot hurt?”

Tan Rou listened to Tao Qi’s incoherent words and laughed in her heart. What nonsense was this child talking about? At a time like this, he still cared about the door.

However, seeing Tao Qi’s abnormal face and red and swollen skin, Tan Rou couldn’t laugh anymore. She directly grabbed Tao Qi’s arm and pulled up his clothes. Sure enough, she saw dense red rashes.

Tan Rou’s face darkened. Tao Qi was allergic and the symptoms were very severe. If she hadn’t arrived in time, he might have gone into shock. This brat, was he gambling with his life?
