Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 379 The Girl Who Always Runs Away from Home - The Restroom Door

There is no doubt that Su Rou cares a lot about her appearance.

She disliked Yang Jiguang because she felt her looks were inferior to his. Confident in her appearance, she dared to boldly pursue Wei Cao. During the ten-odd days of their "relationship," Wei Cao endured not only the previous hardships but also her various extreme makeup attempts.

The first thing she does every morning is put on makeup. She touches up her makeup after meals, applies it again before leaving the house, and applies it again when she comes back. She even changes into a lighter makeup look before eating. She also wears light makeup to bed at night. When she's not wearing makeup, she's definitely taking care of her skin. Her skin isn't actually that good, and Wei Cao guesses that she doesn't look good without makeup either. Unfortunately, Su Rou cares a lot about her appearance and has never shown Wei Cao her bare face.

All signs indicate that she is particularly concerned about her appearance, and that any problems with her appearance might make her willingly spend money.

For this reason, Yu Liu searched through her entire online space and finally found a bottle of beauty-enhancing pills.

The elixir was produced in the divine realm, so its medicinal power was naturally potent. In order to make it usable, Yu Liu specially diluted it tens of thousands of times.

Hua Longmao and Yang Jiguang were both computer science students. Together, they created a website, and everything was ready.

……

Su Rou has been having some troubles lately.

She has pimples on her face.

At first, she didn't take it seriously. Because of frequent makeup use, her skin started to deteriorate. No matter how much she took care of it, these chemical products still damaged her delicate skin. Occasionally, when she woke up in the morning, she would find one or two pimples on her skin. This was normal. She would apply a special ointment and they would disappear in a day or two.

During the days when she has acne, she tries to avoid going out. If she has to go out, she will put on makeup to prolong the time the acne stays on her face. However, she does not allow herself to be ugly in the slightest when she is out.

This had happened many times before, and she was used to it. But this time was different. The pimples on her face still hadn't disappeared after three days. She wondered if the ointment had become ineffective because she had used it too many times and her face had developed a resistance to it.

She switched to a different ointment, but things got even more complicated. Perhaps it was an allergic reaction, but instead of clearing up the pimples, the ointment actually made them worse.

At first, there were only one or two pimples, but now nearly a dozen have appeared all over my left cheek.

The face was covered with countless tiny red blisters, at most containing white pus, which looked terrifying at first glance.

Moreover, these bubbles cannot be covered up even with the thickest layer of powder.

This really worried Su Rou a lot. In order to prevent others from seeing her ugly side, she stopped going out these days.

She is a freshman. According to the rules of Ocean University, freshmen must live on campus and cannot rent off-campus unless there are special circumstances. So she is currently living in the dormitory, which is a four-person room. She doesn't get along with the other three students, but they see each other all the time and have noticed the pimples on her face.

Seeing her in such a disheveled state, one of the people who disliked her spread the word. Many others in the school also disliked Su Rou, and the story spread far and wide, eventually becoming the rumor that Su Rou was disfigured.

Su Rou wanted to deal with this matter, but the best solution was for her to show herself and tell everyone that her face was still fine. However, in reality, her face was becoming increasingly unsightly.

The pimples multiplied, eventually covering her entire face and looking quite alarming. Su Rou finally couldn't take it anymore. She stopped using the ointment, took a few days off work, and went straight to the hospital.

After examining the pimples, the doctor said they were just ordinary acne and would clear up easily, and prescribed a tube of ointment.

But the ointment didn't work either.

I went to many hospitals, and the doctors all came to the same conclusion. They prescribed different ointments or medications, but the result was always the same—it didn't work.

Su Rou was on the verge of a breakdown, so she simply took a long leave of absence and hid at home, afraid to go out.

But this wasn't a long-term solution, and her family was actively searching for ways to help her. Unable to go out, she could only browse the internet, hoping to find some effective medicine.

As luck would have it, she was browsing a shopping website when a message suddenly popped up on the page, just like the ads that usually pop up when you open a webpage.

Su Rou would usually just close such messages, but this time the words on the advertisement caught her attention.

Although she knew such ads were unreliable, she was still attracted and clicked to view them as if possessed.

After clicking, the page went black, then gradually lit up, as if I had passed through something, and a black webpage popped up.

The webpage has no superfluous text; the dark page color paired with subtle gold patterns makes the whole page look noble and mysterious.

In the center of the webpage is an image of a small purple bottle, which shimmers mysteriously under the light, containing a slightly swaying liquid.

"Beauty serum?"

Su Rou couldn't help but read aloud, "It can remove acne, fade scars, whiten skin, and nourish the skin..."

"Is this for real?" Su Rou didn't actually believe in these kinds of advertisements, but she was really desperate. She couldn't stand her face anymore and had to find a way to change it.

Her mentality was like trying anything as a last resort.

When she saw the price, her eyes widened in astonishment; she simply couldn't believe it: "50? Just this small bottle, selling for 50?! Is this seller crazy for money?!"

Upon seeing this, she decisively closed the page.

……

A few days later, the pimples began to burst, pus covered the skin on my face, and the flesh on my face began to rot.

Su Rou couldn't take it anymore; she couldn't wait any longer and had to find a solution. But she tried everything, and nothing worked. Just then, she suddenly remembered the webpage she had seen a few days ago.

Fortunately, she hadn't deleted her browsing history, so she easily found the page. Without hesitation, she invested all her pocket money to buy that small bottle of medicine.

"Please... God please..." she murmured, "God please, this thing is definitely worth the price, it can cure my illness, please..."
