Chapter 46 Familiar feeling, I'm back
One morning, Lin Xiyan went into the mountains to collect herbs as usual. In order to find a rare herb, she went deep into the mountains alone.
The mountain road was rugged and steep, the morning dew wet the ground, and the moss underfoot was slippery.
She was so focused on the trail of herbs that she didn't notice the loose stones beside her.
Just as she bent over to pick the fruits, her foot suddenly slipped, and she lost her balance in an instant and fell straight towards the cliff.
The wind was whistling in her ears. Lin Xiyan widened her eyes in horror and waved her hands around, trying to grab a life-saving straw, but it was in vain.
Her body fell rapidly and her consciousness gradually became blurred. In a trance, she seemed to see the expectant faces of everyone in the camp and the bustling camp. Everything flashed before her eyes like a slide show.
"Is this the end?" Despair overwhelmed her like a tide.
When Lin Xiyan opened her eyes again, the glaring fluorescent lights made her dizzy, and all she saw were familiar yet unfamiliar white walls and exquisite medical equipment.
"Where... am I?" she muttered to herself, her voice dry and hoarse.
Before she could come to her senses, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open.
A group of medical staff in white coats gathered around her. After checking and questioning her, she was shocked to find that she had returned to the modern era.
Every moment in the ancient camp seems like a beautiful dream, yet so unforgettable.
At night, she often tossed and turned, looking at the neon lights outside the window, but what came to her mind were the laughter of people around the campfire and the busy scene of making facial masks.
Fortunately, her family's meticulous care gradually healed the trauma in her heart.
Her parents cooked delicious food for her in various ways, such as the fresh and soft fish soup and steaming dumplings, each bite was full of the taste of home.
Her best friend dragged her shopping and tried on fashionable clothes one by one. In front of the fitting mirror, Lin Xiyan saw the confident and free-spirited self gradually returning.
In order to reintegrate into modern life, Lin Xiyan decided to return to her old career. With the profound knowledge accumulated from studying herbal medicine in ancient times, she continued to devote herself to the field of Chinese medicine research.
In the laboratory, she was wearing a white coat, holding a dropper, and concentrating on preparing the medicine. She had already memorized the properties of those herbs, and the experiment progressed rapidly.
In her spare time, she improved and innovated the ancient beauty secrets, made them into pure natural skin care products, and tried them out on a small scale among friends, which won excellent reputation.
"Xiyan, your skincare products are amazing! My face, which was dull from staying up late, has become much brighter after just a few days of using them."
Her best friend excitedly pulled her, her eyes full of surprise.
Lin Xiyan raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a confident smile: "Of course, this is my exclusive secret recipe."
Recommended by a friend, Lin Xiyan's skin care products attracted the attention of a well-known beauty company.
The company's senior management personally met with the audience. Looking at the people in suits and ties in the conference room, Lin Xiyan calmly introduced the product concept and ingredient efficacy.
The company immediately decided to cooperate, and with generous contract bonuses and a broad development platform in front of them, Lin Xiyan's career ushered in a highlight moment.
As soon as the product was launched, it set off a craze in the beauty market. Crowds of people flocked to the counters, and online orders came in like snowflakes.
Lin Xiyan is frequently invited to participate in various beauty lectures and scientific research seminars. With the spotlight on her and the microphone in front of her, she talks freely, shares her skin care experience and traditional Chinese medicine concepts, and becomes a hot new star in the industry.
After a busy day, Lin Xiyan returned home, made a cup of hot tea, curled up on the sofa, and looked through the small items she used to have in the camp - an antique handkerchief, a homemade brush. These old things that carried memories made her eyes slightly wet.
"Perhaps, this is fate's arrangement."
"I'm back."
