Chapter 23 Why Wear a Mask



(23)

It was getting late. Ye Wenyu checked the time; the girls' dormitory was about to close if she didn't go back soon. She said, "Well then, Brother Wen, I'll go back now. Military training starts tomorrow. I'll come find you when I have time." To be honest, she wasn't in the mood for romance right now. She had no tuition fees, no living expenses. Starting tomorrow, she had to cherish every minute and seize every opportunity to find a job. Only after solving these life problems could she go find Brother Wen and immerse herself in the joy of romance.

However, she thought happily that because she had been reunited with Brother Wen, she was so overjoyed that she now had a hundred times the courage and fervent hope to face the cruelty of life.

In order to fall in love with the handsome Wen-gege, she must bravely live on!

Cai Wenchuan nodded and said to her, "Okay, I'll take you back."

The two started walking back together. Along the way, female college students who were leaving the library for evening self-study watched them.

Ye Wenyu was in a good mood, so she quietly asked, "Brother Wen, why do those college girls always peek at you?"

Cai Wenchuan blushed. Uh, he hadn't told Xiaoyu his true identity yet, and for a moment, he didn't know how to bring it up.

Therefore, he could only say, "It's nothing, I guess I was just looking after you."

Ye Wenyu pointed to the mask on her face and said to him smugly, "I'm wearing a mask. Besides, I'm a woman. Why would a woman peek at another woman? It must be because you're too good-looking that they like you and that's why they're peeking at you."

Upon hearing this, Cai Wenchuan's neck turned red. He coughed and said to Xiaoyu, "Don't talk nonsense."

Ye Wenyu giggled, her laughter clear and crisp like the wind chimes under the eaves. She playfully said to him, "Tell me honestly, how many girls are chasing after you right now? Make it up, could it make a whole platoon?"

Cai Wenchuan's ears turned bright red. He looked at Ye Wenyu, who was laughing so hard she was shaking, and said to her, "By the way, why haven't you taken off your mask yet? I haven't seen you for almost six years."

When she moved, she was just a twelve-year-old girl in junior high school, her breasts just beginning to develop, like tiny buds.

Unexpectedly, she has grown into a young woman in the blink of an eye. The girl standing in front of him is about 1.65 meters tall, with a full bust, a slender waist, and two long, straight legs. She has thick, shiny black hair, snow-white skin, and big, grape-like eyes. Although she wore a mask the whole time, you could tell from her appearance that she was a beauty that was one in a million.

However, he was still curious about the face under the mask. After all, he had watched her grow up, and he wanted to know what a lovely and beautiful girl he had been longing for was now, all grown up and graceful.

Ye Wenyu froze, stopping in her tracks. She had been playfully walking backwards towards Cai Wenchuan, but now she just stood there dumbfounded.

She recalled how she had deliberately made her face ugly to avoid Lin Tingfeng, using waterproof cosmetics to create an unsightly birthmark. If she took off her mask now, would it scare Brother Wen away and make him run away?

She had finally reunited with her beloved, and the two were overjoyed. However, they had not yet established a romantic relationship. If she scared him away, wouldn't her wish be in vain?

She stared blankly at Cai Wenchuan, who had a curious expression on his face, while a thousand thoughts raced through her mind.

So, in order to keep Wen-gege by her side, she decided to be honest with him, take off her mask, wipe away the birthmark on her face, and let him see her true appearance. After all, seeing how handsome and charming Wen-gege had become after six years apart, she also wanted him to know that she was actually quite pretty too.

However, if Brother Wen finds out the truth, then it will seem unnecessary for her to keep putting on makeup and wearing a mask in front of him every day. Soon, her roommate will definitely find out that her birthmark is fake. If she goes out with the birthmark on, Brother Wen will definitely ask her why she is making herself look ugly. How will she explain that?

so?

If she said that this fake birthmark was a real birthmark, then she would be an ugly monster. If Brother Wen didn't mind, then it would mean that he was the best man in the world. So, it's better to just show people this fake face.

She believed that Brother Wen was not such a superficial man.

Therefore, Ye Wenyu made up her mind. After thinking for a while, she said to Cai Wenchuan, "I have something on my face. You won't mind, will you?" Her tone deliberately sounded very self-conscious and sad.

"You definitely won't mind?" Cai Wenchuan laughed and said playfully to her, "Parents always think their own children are the best."

Hearing this, Ye Wenyu felt a warm glow in her heart, but she still gave him a playful glare and said, "I'm not your child."

Cai Wenchuan said, "Oh, who just said—" He imitated her voice, bent down and said, "You're the one I raised."

Ye Wenyu laughed and said to him, "If you want to watch, then watch. Be prepared."

Cai Wenchuan nodded.

Ye Wenyu gently removed her mask, and the moonlight made the surroundings as bright as day. Cai Wenchuan was stunned, his gaze fixed on her face as if glued to it. Ye Wenyu didn't dare to breathe, nervously watching him, thinking that he must be frightened by the birthmark on her face. On one hand, she regretted her decision, and on the other hand, she was afraid of losing her Wen-gege. After all, few people can withstand the test.

She opened her mouth, anxiously trying to say, "Brother Wen, I'm lying to you. I had the birthmark done; it's fake."

At this moment, Cai Wenchuan said with concern, "It's okay, there is now a laser technology to remove birthmarks that can remove large areas of birthmarks."

He frowned, looking puzzled, and said thoughtfully, "That's strange, you didn't seem to have any birthmarks when you were little."

Ye Wenyu could only touch her face and carefully said, "It grew after you moved, probably because I think about you every day."

Cai Wenchuan laughed. He tilted his head and looked at her a few times, then patted her head and said to her with a smile, "Indeed, your own child is the most beautiful. Even with a birthmark, she is still so beautiful."

Ye Wenyu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, feeling sweet inside. She hadn't expected that Brother Wen was such a good man! She had painted such an ugly birthmark on her face, and he actually accepted it all and even praised her for being beautiful. Brother Wen, shouldn't you go see an ophthalmologist?
