Both their faces suddenly darkened: it was Quan Jin’s voice.

Why was she back?

Quan Jin walked to the centre of the living room with her arms crossed as she looked at her parents with despise. Right in that moment, Master Quan seemed to recall how Quan Jin used to be when she was only ten years old—so proud, arrogant, noble, and irrepressible.

Quan Jin should not have shown such imposing vigor at such troubled times.

“How… How could you…”

Master Quan was pointing at his familiar, yet seemingly strange, daughter. She had the same appearance, figure, and voice. However, she appeared to be totally different from the person she had been the day before. All the melancholy, weakness, and insecurity in her had disappeared.

Only one day had passed. What had actually happened to her?

Master Quan was about to say something but decided against it. Instead, he explained, “The reason we hid your name was for your own good! Do you know how many people out there want you dead? Why didn’t you discuss the engagement with Mo Qingtian with us?”

Quan Jin yawned lazily in response.

How pretentious!

Quan Jin glanced at her parents, seemingly knowing what they had conspired. She turned around and walked upstairs without saying a single word. Her parents were speechless as they watched her leave, an unsettling feeling engulfing them.

Quan Jin entered her room. The first thing she did was check herself out in the mirror to see how ugly she had become. Ironically, her recent figure and appearance did not fail to disappoint.

Damn.

Her dull, yellow skin made her eyes look even more hollow. She was now only one and a half meters in height. Her face was so swollen that she looked like a rustic bumpkin from afar.

I don’t want to live with this face.

Quan Jin took out a dagger from the drawer and pressed it over her wrist. She wanted to end her life with such a hideous face.

She threw a look at a photo resting in the drawer. The girl in the photo was about ten years old. She was wearing a white, customized gown and the diamond diadem on her head did not steal the spotlight from her gorgeous face.
