Chapter 2513: 2481. Monster (2)

One day, while her parents were away, Lu Jingtian tried getting out of bed alone and managed to fumble her way to the door of her ward by supporting herself against the walls. She wanted to work hard at rehabilitation and move around more so as to gain a speedy recovery. That way, she could leave this sick ward filled with the smell of disinfectants.

She slowly made her way out, holding the walls for support, when she suddenly heard a little girl’s giggling voice, which came from nearby, and saw a ball rolling over to her feet.

She stared at it intensely, gritted her teeth in determination, and tried reaching out to the mid-size ball, wanting to pick it up. Her fingers spread wide open, and with much difficulty, she managed to grasp the ball in her hand. The success of this little action lit her orbs in happiness.

Soon, a flurry of excited footsteps neared her and stopped right in front of her. A little girl’s soft, innocent voice rang out. “That’s my ball you’re holding, auntie!” She sounded quite young, around the age of seven or eight, and had an adorable and obedient appearance.

Upon hearing that, the actress looked up quizzically at the girl before her, only to see her trembling in shock and her bright, charming smile turning stiff on her face when she took in the face and the wounds on the missy’s body with wide eyes.

The girl wore a look of horror as she backed away continuously, falling over as a result. Fear soon had her bawling. “Wah! Monster! Uwahhh… It’s a scary monster… Woo woo woo! Mommy, mommy… save me! A monster wants to eat Xinxing! A monster…”

As if struck by lightning, Lu Jingtian stood rooted to the ground. The ball dropped from her slackened hand and rolled to the side.

The girl’s mother from the ward next door, as well as the nurses, was eventually alerted to the girl’s crying. Flustered, the woman ran over and picked up her kid, thinking that some adult had deliberately frightened her poor daughter. The moment she turned her head, however, she spotted the lady, standing petrified at a corner, and her anger faded at once. She stood stunned for several seconds before she finally understood what exactly had happened earlier.

My playful daughter must’ve accidentally bumped into this person and ended up crying because she got frightened by her looks!

The woman’s flawless face—fair, tender skin, and gentle yet exquisite eyes and brows—captured Lu Jingtian’s attention right at that moment. She suddenly felt utterly ashamed of herself when she compared her appearance to the other!

Her heart gripped in pain as she lowered her head, not wanting her looks to be exposed to others.

…I’m not a monster. I-I just wanted to pick the ball up for her… I’m not a monster, but… this girl called me one…

Her curiosity was piqued, though. Just how terrifying is my face? How scary do I exactly look for an insensible girl to call me ‘monster’?

The mother chided her child before apologizing profusely to the missy. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! My daughter is a kid who doesn’t know what she’s saying. She didn’t mean it… I’m sorry! I’m truly sorry…”

The woman apologized nonstop to her. She had, perhaps, realized just how much hurt her child’s unintentional words could bring to the young lady, whose face was disfigured.

Lu Jingtian carefully lifted her head and saw the woman’s exquisite appearance once more. Envy, as well as jealousy, welled up in her heart all at once. The woman was no looker; she was not as pretty as she once was, at least, especially since this woman’s looks were solely dependent on makeup.
