Chapter 2: Chapter 2 – What an Eyesore of an Outfit

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

She subconsciously touched her face and ended up coming into contact with a row of earrings on her ear!

Lin Rui abruptly pushed Lin Zikang away, jumped out of bed, limped, and scurried to the mirror in the bathroom next to her.

When she finally caught a clear look at the smoky makeup on her face in the mirror, followed by the row of earrings on her ear, and her colorful hair, the corners of her mouth twitched.

‘What… what kind of a monster is this!?!’ 

Lin Zikang panicked and rushed in. “Lin Rui, are you alright? Quickly go back to the hospital bed and lie down, your legs are still hurt…”

“Father, I’m fine, I just want to wash up.”

Lin Rui took a deep breath and pushed Lin Zikang out of the bathroom before locking the door. 

The abrasions on her skin and her fractured leg didn’t matter to her. 

She had had her soul shattered and dispersed. Such wounds were nothing to her. 

However, her outfit was truly an eyesore! 

If not for the fact that she had found out from the former owner’s memory that she was just an ordinary mortal and not some demon or devil, Lin Rui would have thought that the person in the mirror was a demon!

Lin Rui could not understand why a decent young girl like her would dress herself up that way. 

Lin Rui began to remove the row of earrings on the ears, after which she discovered that the former owner had a navel ring too… 

After rinsing her colorful hair a few times, Lin Rui found the colors to be even more horrendous. 

After some thought, she grabbed a pair of scissors and mustered the courage to snip off all her hair. 

Her hair fell to the ground, segment by segment. Gradually, her beautiful face appeared. 

She looked rather similar to Lin Rui’s initial appearance. 

Besides, her hair was very short and a little messy. Matched with her beautiful face, it made her look uniquely suave and aloof… 

On the other hand, Xu Man sorted out her feelings quickly and entered. 

She was stunned to see the empty hospital bed. 

‘Could it be that Lin Rui was just having a sober moment before her death and has already been sent to the emergency rescue room now?’ 

‘It’s best if she’s dead!’

However, she nevertheless forced herself to smile. Looking at Lin Zikang concernedly, she asked, “Kang, where’s Lin Rui? Did she…” 

“She is inside the bathroom.” Lin Zikang was also a little stunned because his daughter had pushed him with quite some force just now.

Nevertheless, he was rather worried about his daughter’s health. 

Lin Zikang yelled at the person beside him, “Where are the doctors? Hurry and get them to come here. Once Lin Zikang comes out, perform a full body examination on her immediately!”

Upon hearing his words, Xu Man thought, ‘Lin Rui is in the bathroom? Isn’t she half-dead? Even if she can wake up, she should not be alive and kicking. Well at least, she should have become immobile. What’s going on with Lin Rui?’ 

Xu Man felt like she was on an emotional rollercoaster. One moment she was elated, and one moment, she was worried. 

After some time, the bathroom door creaked.

The short-haired girl slowly walked out in a patient’s gown.

Although her face was pale and her hair was very short and uneven, her beautiful face was still so stunning that it made everyone in the ward freeze in shock. 

She was absolutely gorgeous! 

The young girl suddenly raised her head and glanced at everyone with her sharp eyes that were like a cold gust of wind. 

Everyone unanimously thought, ‘Gee, she’s so fierce!’

It had been many years since Lin Zikang saw his daughter without any makeup. 

He could still remember the adorable and sweet-looking girl. 

Looking at the young girl in front of him, who resembled his lawful wife, Lin Zikang suddenly began choking with tears. “Lin Rui…” 

Lin Rui knew that Lin Zikang genuinely treated her well. She nodded her chin a little and assented inaudibly.

She then turned to look at Xu Man who was standing beside Lin Zikang. 

‘This woman…’

Lin Rui already knew from her memory that this woman was the stepmother of the former owner and the best friend of the latter’s biological mother.

In front of others, especially Lin Zikang, Xu Man would forever act like a gentle and demure woman. 

In fact, she had been treating Lin Rui rather well over the years too.

In fact, she treated her especially well! 

So much that it was absurd!
