"No, no, the doctors will take good care of you. Once you're treated, you'll be fine," Li Aiguo hurriedly reassured Zhao Li'e.
"I don't believe it. I don't believe you." Zhao Li'e shook her head. She thought about all that scalding water splashing onto her face—she had never experienced that kind of pain in her life. Besides, she had overheard the doctor during her treatment. He'd said her burns were very serious, a severe case.
'Severe burns... Just the thought of it told her she was bound to be scarred.'
At this thought, Zhao Li'e grew even more panicked. 'If I'm really left with a face full of scars, will Li Aiguo still want me? I can't believe he could live out his days with a woman whose face is covered in scars. If the roles were reversed, I would be disgusted with him too.'
'So, judging him by my own standards, Li Aiguo is sure to be disgusted with me. He might even look for an excuse to divorce me.'
'If that really happened, she wouldn't be able to bear it.'
