The system makes me so beautiful that I don't care about anyone else's life or death.

"Doctor! Doctor! Someone come quickly!"

"Go ahead and shout, no one will hear you even if you shout until you're hoarse."

When she first arrived, she glanced around and saw that the competition was over, and Shi An was the only patient left. The medical team had all gone to eat.

So she had Little Butterfly stand guard outside while she came in to "visit" her brother.

"Ghost Voice, I never expected you to be such a despicable, shameless, and cold-blooded person. I'm going to expose you!"

"I'll cripple your other leg before I expose you."

In a flash, Shi An quickly rolled off the hospital bed, trying to crawl out the door using the strength of his two forelimbs.

But it's too late.

His right foot was still in Su Ran's hands.

From a distance, Shi An's upper body was hanging on the ground, and one of his legs was dangling above the hospital bed, with Su Ran pulling on his foot, making it look as if Su Ran was lifting him up.

Accompanied by excruciating pain, another scream rang out as the injury to his right ankle worsened, likely resulting in a torn ligament.

What's even more terrifying is that he, a grown man, couldn't resist a woman.

With each slight struggle, the injury to my ankle worsened.

Cold sweat dripped down his back. Looking at the ghostly voice high above him, anger, resentment, and hatred surged within Shi An's heart.

"You wait! I'm going to send you to jail!"

With his right leg thrown off, Shi An's body rolled completely off the bed.

Just when Shi An thought she was going to let him go.

A sound came from above.

"What evidence do you have to prove that I did it? Shi An, to outsiders, I'm already back at the hotel. Just like your sister who helped someone with their alibi, I also have an alibi." Su Ran's smile was ruthless.

Shi An froze, staring at Su Ran in astonishment.

Then she continued in an icy tone, "Compared to destroying a girl's expectations of family, these legs are the most fitting way to pay for it."

“You vicious woman, if there’s really something wrong with my leg, I won’t let you get away with this! I’ll kill you! Kill you!!” he emphasized over and over again.

Suddenly, someone stepped on his knee, and the pain made him want to roll on the ground.

This was no ordinary kick.

Since mastering the Floating Sword Technique, Su Ran's martial prowess has skyrocketed. Even without using his sword, he can beat a grown man half to death using only his physical strength.

She lowered her head, looking down at him with unfathomable eyes that made one's heart tremble.

“A girl named Su Ran asked me to ask you, do you know what it feels like to have boiling water poured on your body? It’s like being scalded raw beef, every piece of your body is being cooked, and your skin seems to be making that sizzling sound, like a piece of plastic being burned and curled up into a black lump.”

Shi An recalled the small, battered face that had been scalded with boiling water, crying and rushing towards him calling him brother. But Shi An took a step back and instead covered Shi Youyou's eyes.

He said, "Don't look, it's too scary."

Young Su Ran never imagined that her brother, who had always been so kind to her, would actually dislike her.

The force suddenly increased on his knee, causing Shi An's face to contort in pain. He tried to retaliate, but the other person grabbed his wrist with such ferocity that it seemed as if they wanted to break his hand as well!

This woman's strength is unbelievable.

He could only hiss weakly say:

"That's my family matter, what's it to you? It's none of your business! Are you and Su Ran really that close? Let me tell you, even if she's had plastic surgery, in my heart she'll always be that ugly monster who looks like a toad! Aaaaaah—"

Su Ran stepped on his injured area and calmly covered his mouth and nose.

"Don't shout too loudly, it's not good if someone hears you."

"Waaaaah..." Shi An's eyes were bloodshot and wide open.

The girl above them spoke vicious words in a soft voice.

“Su Ran told me that she never cared about those who beat her and isolated her, because she never cared about those she didn’t care about, so she wouldn’t shed tears for every beating! Just like now, seeing you so dejected makes her so happy.”

"You've worked so hard for so long. If you had even a little bit of talent, you would have become a household name in the entertainment industry long ago. But you only gained some popularity when you fell down at the age of 22. Doesn't that prove that you're a failure?"

"Do you want to check today's trending topics? You finally made the list, and it's the Battle Merit List. It's a pity that you're lying here now. In a long time, they will forget about you."

"The attention you've longed for for so long is about to slip away from you, Shi An, don't you feel that all your efforts over the past ten years have been utterly meaningless?"

"You are now nothing but a piece of trash."

Every word, every sentence, shattered his faltering faith, causing it to collapse and plunge him into a bottomless abyss of darkness.

"Think carefully about how you're going to live from now on."

She left with those words, leaving Shi An alone, dragging her two severely injured legs, lying on the floor under the hospital bed, unable to get up no matter how hard she tried.

The next time I heard from Shi An, he had been taken to the hospital. I heard that he had torn his meniscus and ligaments in both feet, and that he would never be able to dance again in his life.

***

On the way back, I received a call from Zhu Hong.

Her voice was a mixture of excitement and helplessness.

"Heroine, the Fat-Nourishing Pills are sold out! I didn't expect them to be gone in just one day! We've even placed orders for 20 more bottles, but we don't have enough raw materials in stock right now, so we can't produce that many next month."

"Purchase limit." Su Ran said two words, then added, "We're selling at such a low price, it's hard to guarantee that no one will act as a scalper. Starting today, each person can only buy two bottles per month with their ID card."

"That's a good suggestion. I'll have someone arrange it right away."

"Sister Zhu, could you also create a blacklist for me?"

"A blacklist? Why the sudden urge to create this?" Zhu Hong asked in surprise.

“Some people don’t deserve to use it. Sister Zhu, I’ll send you the list later.”

Su Ran's mind raced through a list of names of people who should be locked up in a dark room. Afraid of missing any, she took a small notebook and wrote them down carefully and meticulously.

Hospital ward.

"You damn brat! I asked you to dance, and you ruined yourself!" A pillow was thrown at Shi An's head.

"Alright, Dad, don't be angry. My brother didn't mean it. He was just unlucky. He didn't expect to draw the ghost voice in the lottery." Shi Youyou stopped Shi Zheng and looked at Shi An with concern, trying to persuade him.

"We had already arranged people with the production team, but you messed it up like this. How could you do this to me?!" Shi Zheng was still not satisfied and picked up the water glass next to him where he was taking medicine and smashed it on the ground.

Shi An lay there silently, his legs in casts, his eyes like a still, lifeless pool, as if he hadn't heard a word Shi Zheng was shouting at.

An advertisement suddenly appeared on the TV.

The beauty in the coffin opened her eyes, her beauty so stunning it was dizzying.

The before-and-after photos at the end are truly shocking, making it hard to believe that such an ugly woman could have a perfect face after removing her scars and losing fat.

It was Su Ran who filmed the advertisement.

He stared intently, a glimmer of light appearing in his lifeless eyes before quickly fading away.

When he saw the advertisement, his anger surprisingly subsided.

"I didn't expect Su Ran to be so capable. Not only did her face get better and she filmed an advertisement, but she also managed to get to know Guiyin."

Wang Xiaoxia and Shi Youyou suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Youyou." Shi Zheng looked at his well-behaved adopted daughter standing beside him, his tone kind.

Shi Youyou's heart skipped a beat as she heard her nominal father say:

"Isn't Qingcheng College about to start its semester? I'll buy you some extra gifts to take to school. There's also a bottle of good wine in the cabinet; could you take it with you and pay a visit to the school leaders while you're at it?"

"Okay." She lowered her head, looking extremely obedient.

****

No one was more excited about the start of school than Su Ran.

She wanted to take off her mask and use her whole face to meet new eyes.

She wanted to hold her head high and run wild in any corner of the school.

Therefore, she specifically told Director Yu that she was withdrawing from the competition.

This was something she had planned all along.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly serious Director Yu suddenly threw a tantrum, crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide!

"Even if I, Yu Duoduo, jump off this cliff, I will never let you withdraw from the competition!"

"Then jump."
