Chapter 123 Skin Change
"Hello, Miss Shi. My last name is Yu, and this is my wife."
Although Chunshan's father looks young, his tone of voice is completely different from that of a young person. He sounds old-fashioned, like an old cadre.
Shi Yu looked at the two of them without saying anything, just nodded slightly, "What do you two want? Marriage, career, children are all fine."
"No, no, we don't count these." Mrs. Yu spoke quickly, then looked at her husband with an expression as if she didn't know how to start.
The two of them hesitated, and even Chunshan, who was standing by, felt a little anxious. It was obvious that she had no idea what her parents wanted to know after spending so much money to buy such a place.
Finally, Mr. Yu looked at Chunshan and said, "Daughter, why don't you go out first? We have something to discuss with Miss Shi alone."
"No way, Dad." Chunshan was a little embarrassed. "This is a live broadcast. Sister Shi has so many fans, many people will record the screen. Even if you don't let me know now, I will know it after watching the screen recording."
Mr. and Mrs. Yu obviously thought of this as well, and their expressions looked a little grim, but they still insisted on letting Chunshan leave first.
There was no way out, Chunshan left the room even though he kept looking back.
However, she didn't plan to wait until the screen recording came out before watching it. As soon as she left the room, she took out the tablet and used the visitor account to quietly enter Shi Yu's live broadcast room again.
I even ran into the bathroom cautiously and put on headphones.
"Since she'll find out sooner or later, is there any point in hiding it for now?"
Shi Yu asked, and Mrs. Yu sighed, "It's not that we're afraid of her knowing, it's just that there are some things we really don't know how to say in front of our daughter."
"Perhaps by letting her know the truth this way, we can both feel better."
Shi Yu raised an eyebrow, "Alright, what do you want to ask?"
The couple looked at each other again, their expressions extremely cautious. Finally, it was Mr. Yu who spoke first, "To be honest, there is only one thing we want to know."
"Is there any way to make someone die quickly?"
[Huh? Is there really something wrong with my ears today? What kind of problem is this?]
[You want to die? Why bother spending a million to ask in the live broadcast room? Give me ten thousand and I'll give you a copy of the "Direct Kill" guide!]
[But they look very rich, why do they want to die? ]
"Don't you think it's strange? I see their daughter is about 17 or 18, if not 20. So they must be at least 40. At this age, they look so young. Is that normal?"
[It's normal for people to look younger if they have the money to maintain their appearance. After all, the happiness of the rich is beyond our imagination.]
[Impossible. Money can make a person in their forties look like they're in their thirties. Is that even possible? But making a person in their forties look like a college graduate? Is that something money can do?]
Neither Shigure nor the couple answered any of the questions in the barrage, but just stared at each other quietly.
It was obvious that the couple really wanted to get an answer from Shi Yu. "Miss Shi, do you have any solution?"
"How long has your beauty salon been open?"
Shigure didn't answer, but instead asked an irrelevant question, "I mean, from the very beginning."
Mrs. Yu bit her lip and finally answered honestly, "About a thousand years, if I'm not mistaken."
"Northern Song Dynasty?"
Shi Yu was also a little uncertain, but when he saw Mrs. Yu nod, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
How many years?
[No, I have to go get my ears checked tomorrow. There must be something wrong!]
【So they have lived for a thousand years! 】
How is that possible? If they had lived incognito in the deep mountains and forests for a thousand years without being discovered, it would be barely acceptable. Even before that, with the current level of census, how could someone survive for a thousand years without being discovered?
Since the couple chose to connect to the live broadcast room today, they had already anticipated the doubts that would arise now, and their expressions did not change much.
Only Xing Shichunshan, who was still hiding in the bathroom and watching the live broadcast, had confused eyes and didn't know whether his brain was still working.
What the hell!
How could her parents be the kind of people who lived for a thousand years!
Shi Yu glanced at the comments and finally explained, "Let me give you something easier to understand. Everyone knows Painted Skin, right? It's the story from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio. I remember it being quite well-known."
So these two people have survived until now without being discovered because they have been constantly changing their appearance?
[Sometimes people don't need to be too imaginative. Real life is much more magical than fiction.]
"Actually... there are many people like us. There are hundreds of people we know of." Mrs. Yu pursed her lips and said something that once again blew up the live broadcast room.
"Our beauty salon's main business is skin replacement. I'm not comfortable revealing the identities of those who do this, but many of them are powerful. It's thanks to this skill that we can have such a good life now."
Ignoring the group of people in the live broadcast room who were clamoring to become his disciples, Shi Yu looked at Mr. Yu and said, "Since you also think that your current life is good, why do you suddenly want to stop living?"
"For the sake of the children..."
Mr. Yu took a deep breath and rubbed his face hard.
Not to mention, the couple really have great skills. Although it is made of leather, no matter how you rub it, there is no damage at all, and it looks exactly like real skin.
This is a serious craft and does not involve any murder or murder.
If I hadn't let Shi Yu go, he wouldn't be as easy to talk to as he is now.
"Miss Shi should know that people like us also have a very obvious flaw. We... are infertile and will never have children. Xiaochun was adopted by us twenty-five years ago. Over the years, we have always treated her as our own, never lacking in material support or companionship."
"But even with our meticulous efforts, Xiaochun was still in a car accident on her way home from get off work a year ago. She suffered extensive burns all over her body and was completely disfigured. We had no choice but to perform a skin transplant on her."
After the skin was replaced, perhaps because the days of being burned were too painful, Xiaochun completely lost her memory of that time when she woke up one day.
As for the difference in appearance, the Yu couple explained that Xiaochun had plastic surgery in the year when she lost her memory.
"We never thought that after the skin transplant, Xiaochun would become just like us!"
