Chapter 6 : The Legendary Frail and Beautiful Girl
She was carried back to the room.
Truth be told, she hadn’t expected this seemingly slender and delicate mom of hers to have such strength.
Of course, it was also possible that she was just too thin.
“Baby, just sleep well first, don’t think about anything else, Mom will arrange everything.”
She lightly hummed and nodded, watching the woman leave with a smile on her face.
It wasn’t until she heard the room door gently close that her whole body slowly relaxed.
“Am I being a bit too nervous…”
“Clearly even if I don’t say anything, no one could guess this body’s abnormality…”
She sighed slightly, opened her eyes and looked at the cherry-pink ceiling, feeling inexplicably lost in her heart.
This was her room, wasn’t it a bit too girly… ah, right, she was a girl now anyway.
Being in an unfamiliar environment made her sleepiness not so heavy.
Thanks to this, she finally had the chance to gradually examine her surroundings and herself, like a curious baby.
This was an extremely spacious room, with everything from a balcony to a bathroom, everything in sight was brand new, new to the point it felt like a newly moved-in house, it was clear that before she returned, the family had specially cleaned it thoroughly.
However, this very newness instead made her somewhat unaccustomed, because behind it lacked the lived-in feel she liked.
“They even moved the medical equipment here… good lord.”
“Are they planning to turn this into my second hospital room?”
A inexplicable sadness rose in her heart, she just turned her head and saw the ECG monitor and various diagnostic instruments that had accompanied her for so long, making it hard for her not to lose composure.
But intuitively, her parents seemed to really care too much about her, otherwise they wouldn’t be so concerned about her body, though the method was a bit too direct.
She idly fiddled with these familiar “friends,” though they were all in off state, but since they were here, the house probably had a few doctors hidden waiting to serve her at any time.
This was something she could completely imagine.
“Huu… in the end, I can’t truly recover, right…”
She sat up slightly from the bed, barefoot stepping onto the soft carpet, yet even so she had to hold onto things to move, she could indeed walk gradually now, but full recovery was still very far away.
If a person doesn’t move for too long, various body functions gradually weaken, Xu Jiu felt this exceptionally clearly, because just these few steps forward, she could already feel her heart wailing in struggle.
“Tch… useless…”
Helplessly, she could only sit flat on the carpet, while praying her parents wouldn’t suddenly come in at this time, otherwise she might get scolded again.
“At least give me some visible hope, bastard… am I going to live this weakly for the rest of my life…”
She was a bit annoyed with herself, however, for this body, large emotional fluctuations were also very luxurious, until now she still remembered the doctor’s instructions to her, no matter what happened, keep a peaceful mindset as much as possible.
It really didn’t even allow her to vent.
“…”
Helpless in her heart, she could only sit on the ground leaning against the bed edge moving little by little, now she was almost in a state of near giving up mentally, or rather, going with the flow.
“Not only can’t get angry, can’t be too happy either…”
She gently clutched the position of her heart, could feel the heartbeat amplitude was much weaker than normal people, thus she slightly frowned, needless to say, this was her first time directly observing the severity of her illness.
Someone like her, being able to live another day was probably already lucky.
The fluffy carpet tickled her lower limbs, every movement like someone using a feather to sweep her thighs, making her both helpless and amused.
However, none of this could stop her from heading to that destination, on the other side of the bed, near the wardrobe, the full-length mirror.
She didn’t care much before, but now preparing to return to life, she suddenly wanted to see what this body she was in looked like, no other meaning.
“Don’t come in, absolutely don’t come in…”
When the path passed the tightly closed room door, a trace of tension rose in her heart, and this period was also her most tormenting.
When she finally reached the destination and saw the whole process went without incident, she finally let out a long breath in her heart.
It was somewhat absurd, for others getting out of bed was just a few seconds to reach, but she had to slowly shuffle for nearly ten minutes.
For the first time in her life, she experienced the downside of a room being too big.
However, these complaints all vanished the moment she saw the mirror.
Even she herself was slightly stunned, she had fantasized about her appearance, but never thought it would be this… outstanding…
In the full-length mirror, a delicately built girl with angel-like exquisite beauty was looking at herself somewhat bewildered.
The girl had smooth silk-like hair reaching her hips, temperament tranquil and aloof, because of illness and long-term lack of sunlight, her skin was a few shades whiter than normal people, and this characteristic made her whole body give off a pitiful fragile feeling, and extremely evoke protective desire.
“This… is me…?”
She touched her cheek in some disbelief, the cool smooth tender touch gradually pulled her mind out of it, because she saw the girl in the mirror also did the same action.
She could even see her current expression of shock mixed with a trace of panic.
“……”
After accepting the reality, she somewhat powerlessly lay back, mainly she didn’t know if this should be considered a good thing…
A girl this stunningly beautiful, even in her previous life she rarely saw in half her lifetime, the type that would make you stop and look a few more times on the street, not to mention her weakness gave her a natural ethereal dreamlike quality, standing with ordinary people would be extremely out of place.
And now, she had become that object of everyone’s admiration.
Moreover, the important point was, she wasn’t wearing makeup.
Because of her body, to prevent stimulation from skincare products, her mother never helped her nor allowed her to use cosmetics, but because of this, it instead raised her natural value several levels.
“This is… sigh…”
Between becoming a woman and becoming a beautiful girl, Xu Jiu’s tolerance for the latter was far lower than the former.
Although through this inspection, she also indirectly understood many things, but for someone used to ordinary life, she also understood what kind of special attention and focus this advantage would bring her.
She wasn’t prepared at all to become the object of others’ affection!
