Xiyan admired herself in the mirror for a long ti and shook her head with a sigh, "I've gotten used to seeing myself with a face full of scars; suddenly reverting to my real appearance actually feels strange."
After reapplying the dark foundation and drawing on the long scars, and donning thick glasses, Xiyan looked in the mirror at her ugly appearance and nodded in satisfaction, "All set."
Rembering what Yin Qianze had said earlier, Xiyan bit her lower lip and dug out her smartphone from her bag.
After hesitating for a mont, she opened Weibo and logged onto an account that had not been used in a very long ti, nad Sumr夏天.
The account's verification information clearly stated: Leader of the Endless Sumr band and singer.
This Weibo account had not been updated with any new content for five years.
Checking the number of visitors to the hopage from yesterday, it was only a thousand or two...
The entertainnt industry is such a rapidly changing place; five years are enough to completely forget about soone.
Xiyan cast her eyes down, "What does it matter that I was once hugely famous? Now, I am left with nothing..."
Suddenly, her phone rang.
Xiyan was startled and answered the call in a fluster, "Hello?"
"Xiyan..." On the other end was a soft and mushy voice.
"An Ran?"
The girl on the other end of the phone nad An Ran was Xiyan's best friend since childhood.
"How have you been lately?"
"Uh, I guess I'm okay, just barely scraping by..." Xiyan spoke with utmost sincerity,
"Calling at this hour? Aren't you not allowed to bring your phone with you during the school term?"
In the neighboring city.
An Ran had just finished her exercises, sitting there in a good girl's manner, perfectly poised, as she answered the call, "I didn't go to school today. I'm at ho. I just suddenly rembered, there are only three months left until the five-year deadline from that contract."
"Mhm."
"Ugh, why do you sound so calm? Five years ago, that scoundrel Xia Shiyi, out of jealousy for you, cried and threatened to kill herself, forcing your dad to pay money to personally ruin your career. They even released news that you left the entertainnt industry because of disfigurent from a car accident... but it was all a conspiracy! You're not disfigured at all! Our Xiyan is the prettiest!" An Ran spoke indignantly with the tone of a standard fangirl.
Xiyan couldn't help but smile, "Hey hey, An Ran, you're just a bystander; how co you're angrier than , the person involved?"
"Hmph, I'm just outraged on your behalf! You were the leader of Endless Sumr, sumr! You were so popular back then? But just because your father bribed your agency, they conspired against you, creating the false story of your disfigurent in a car accident."
Xiyan pushed open the door of the restroom and walked out.
Yes, five years ago, it was the year that completely changed her fate.
It was this year that her mother, unable to bear with the family disruption caused by the mistress Yang Shurong, jumped from a building and beca a vegetable.
It was this year that she was blocked by her agency under the pretext of disfigurent from a car accident, and had to cooperate with the agency by deliberately disguising herself with post-accident symptoms and intentionally making herself ugly for five years.
During these five years, she could not appear in public as a celebrity or in front of the general public.
Otherwise, she would have to pay a hefty breach of contract fee.
It was this year that she was completely kicked out of the Xia family by her stepmother Yang Shurong. Yang Shurong and Xia Shiyi seized the ho that once belonged to her, and took away the father that belonged to her.
It was this year that she went from being a carefree rich young lady, a national idol, to soone who had to completely conceal her identity and deliberately make herself ugly, soone who others could laugh at for her looks—a "fool."
