Chapter 546: Unlimited Scenery
Tonight, she was indeed in great glory, but the ice in her heart had not melted at all. This feast was just a gorgeous prelude before the storm.
at the same time.
Inside the luxurious and secretive private sanatorium, the smell of disinfectant permeated the air, but it could not cover up the faint smell of blood and medicine.
Su Jiujiu was lying on the soft hospital bed, her face wrapped in thick gauze, revealing only a pair of resentful eyes.
On the tablet computer by the bed, news clips of last night's charity dinner were playing in a loop.
The scene of Chi Wenyan spending a fortune on Ji Wan, the brilliance of the "Tears of the Deep Sea" worn around Ji Wan's neck, and Ji Wan's calm and relaxed attitude while enjoying everything, were like poisoned needles, piercing Su Jiujiu's heart.
"Bang."
She swept the tablet to the ground with all her might, and the screen shattered instantly.
"Ah——!" Su Jiujiu let out a beast-like roar from her throat, which affected the wound on her face. She gasped in pain and tears mixed with hatred burst out.
"Ji Wan, Ji Wan, why? Why can she receive such extreme favor from Chi Wenyan? Why can she stand in the spotlight so brightly and beautifully? And I have to endure this inhuman torture here."
Her voice was hoarse and distorted due to excitement and pain, and was filled with resentment and madness.
Every inch of her cheek beneath the gauze screamed with pain, a reminder of everything she had endured. Her once beautiful face had been completely disfigured by the sulfuric acid in the accident.
Now, this face is being carved into Ji Wan's appearance bit by bit according to Zhao Xiyue's arrangement.
"My face, my face hurts." Su Jiujiu covered her face, her body shaking uncontrollably. "Chi Wenyan, I hate you. Ji Wan, I hate you even more. I want you to die miserably."
The door was gently pushed open, and Zhao Xiyue walked in with a cup of warm water. Seeing the mess on the floor and Su Jiujiu's crazy look, she frowned slightly, and then regained her composure.
"Jiujiu, don't get excited. The doctor said you need to rest now. Too much emotional fluctuation will affect your recovery." Zhao Xiyue put the water glass on the bedside table. Her voice was gentle but with a hint of calmness that did not allow for questioning.
Su Jiujiu suddenly raised her head, staring at Zhao Xiyue with bloodshot eyes: "Rest? How can you let me rest? Have you seen the news? Chi Wenyan dotes on Ji Wan to the sky. He wants to give the whole world to that bitch, and what about me? I am neither human nor ghost here."
Zhao Xiyue bent down to pick up the broken tablet and threw it into the trash can, her tone still calm.
"I saw it, so what? It's just Chi Wenyan's usual trick, a show for outsiders. Do you think Ji Wan is really happy?"
She walked to the bedside and looked down at Su Jiujiu, her eyes showing a hint of pity but more of calculation.
"Your patience now is all for the purpose of better replacing her in the future. Think about it, when your face is fully restored, you will have a face that is 60% to 70% similar to Ji Wan's. Coupled with your understanding of Chi Wenyan, your chances will only be greater than they are now."
Su Jiujiu gasped, the madness in her eyes gradually being guided by Zhao Xiyue's words, and a sinister light flashed in her eyes: "You are right, I will endure it and wait until my face gets better."
"That's right."
A faint smile appeared on Zhao Xiyue's lips, and she reached out and gently patted Su Jiujiu's shoulder covered with the quilt.
"The more glorious Ji Wan is now, the more miserable she will be when she falls in the future. No matter how much Chi Wenyan dotes on her now, when he finds out that he has recognized the wrong person, or when 'you' use Ji Wan's face to return to his side, how do you think he will react?"
Su Jiujiu's breathing gradually calmed down, and the pain on her face seemed to ease a little. She greedily imagined the future described by Zhao Xiyue, her eyes flashing with morbid excitement.
"I want him to regret it. I want Ji Wan to have nothing."
She spoke through gritted teeth, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"I will." Zhao Xiyue's voice was like the most gentle temptation, "So, just take care of your face. This face is your greatest weapon. Once it recovers, it will be the beginning of our counterattack. By then, Chi Wenyan will be yours, and the position of Mrs. Chi will naturally be yours as well."
Su Jiujiu took a deep breath and clenched her fists tightly.
Yes, she still had a chance. As long as this face could be restored to look like Ji Wan's, she would have a chance to take everything back, and even get more.
Ji Wan, your current glory is only temporary. Wait, I'll let you know what it feels like to fall from the clouds into hell.
Outside the window of the sanatorium, the night is deep and a new storm is quietly brewing in the silent darkness.
“Dongdongdong——”
The monotonous knock on the door broke the silence in the villa.
Ji Wan put down the parenting book she was reading and frowned slightly. Ever since Nian Nian was kidnapped, she refused to see anyone, and no one came back. Except for a few people who came, few people would take the initiative to come to her house.
She walked to the door, looked out through the peephole, and her pupils suddenly shrank.
The person standing outside the door was actually Zhao Xiyue.
After not seeing her for a few days, Zhao Xiyue looked much more haggard, with a dark complexion under her eyes, and her once carefully groomed hair now a little messy. She was wearing simple, plain clothes, and she exuded a sense of decadence and sadness.
Ji Wan's heart sank instantly, her fingertips cold. This woman, once her best friend, was also one of the culprits who pushed her into the abyss.
Why is she here?
Ji Wan didn't open the door, his voice as cold as ice: "What are you doing here?"
Zhao Xiyue outside the door trembled slightly, her voice choked with suppressed sobs, full of pleading: "Wanwan, I know, I know I don't have the face to see you, I just miss you too much."
When mentioning his daughter Nian Nian, Ji Wan's heart ached.
Zhao Xiyue's voice pierced through the door, crying desperately, "I beg you, Wanwan, just let me take a look at Nian Nian, okay? I really can't hold on any longer. She's the only thing I have left."
Ji Wan pursed his lips tightly, a complex emotion churning in his chest.
Anger, resentment, and a cleverly aroused hint of the instinctive pity a mother feels for her child?
No, she couldn't be soft-hearted. Zhao Xiyue's betrayal had nearly made her lose everything, including Nian Nian.
"Zhao Xiyue, do you think that your pitiful appearance now can make me forget what you did?" Ji Wan's voice was still cold, with undisguised sarcasm, "When you sent Wen Yan to Su Jiujiu's bed, did you think of Nian Nian? Did you think of me?"
"I'm sorry, Wanwan. I really know I was wrong."
