"I'm sorry, Miss Shen Xuan, I was wrong, I will never do it again."
The maid was truly terrified; her face was bruised and swollen, and she looked incredibly pitiful.
They were such pushovers before, easily manipulated by them, how did they suddenly become so ruthless?
Could he be possessed?!
Moreover, that brat she brought back actually opened the sophisticated electronic door with a talisman. She might really know some evil magic that turned Shen Xuan into this.
No, we must tell the young lady about this right away.
Shen Yan has bribed all the servants in the Shen family.
She would report to Shen Xuan immediately if she did anything that was even slightly illogical.
Just as the maid was mentally planning how to exaggerate and complain about Shen Xuan, that country bumpkin, to Shen Yan, she looked up and suddenly met a pair of big, dark eyes.
Those eyes were dark and deep, like black grapes. Although their gaze wasn't sharp, they inexplicably made her heart pound wildly.
Seeing her cowering, Qiqi tilted her head and grinned.
"Auntie, plotting how to harm others is a bad habit, you shouldn't do it."
The little girl held up one finger and shook it, her mocking gaze falling on the maid's face like two thorns piercing straight into her heart.
The maid quickly and guiltily avoided eye contact, shaking her head and protesting, "I...I know, I...I didn't."
"It's best if there isn't one, otherwise... um..." Qiqi stared at the maid's face for a moment, "Auntie, you're in big trouble!"
The maid was furious. "That brat! She even cursed her!"
But with Shen Xuan standing beside her, she didn't dare show it and could only give an awkward laugh, "Little girl, don't joke around."
"I'm not kidding, you'll get a call soon."
As soon as Qiqi finished speaking, the maid's phone rang.
The maid's expression changed, and her hand holding the phone trembled inexplicably.
"Come on, Sister Shen, show me around your house first." Qi Qi gave her a meaningful smile, then turned to Shen Xuan and said.
Shen Xuan glanced at the maid with a puzzled look, then led Qi Qi into the villa.
Behind me, the maid answered the phone with trembling hands. I don't know what she said, but suddenly she let out a sharp, eerie howl.
The sound startled Shen Xuan. She looked down at the little girl beside her with concern, only to find that the girl was staring at her with dark eyes. She was immediately stunned.
The beginning of image management through conditioned reflexes.
I just got into a fight with the maid without caring about my image, I must be in a terrible state right now.
Shen Xuan hurriedly fiddled with her hair and straightened her clothes, her face flushed as she explained in a low voice, "Little Master, I'm sorry, I didn't scare you, did I?" She paused, then added even more quietly, "Actually, I'm not usually like this."
"Yes, I know!" Qiqi nodded, and seeing that she kept pulling her hair over to cover her face, she pointed to the birthmark on her face and asked, "Sister Chen, are you very concerned about that mark on your face?"
Shen Xuan paused, then lowered her head even further.
She pressed her lower lip tightly together and didn't say anything.
Tsk, it goes without saying that she really cares.
Qiqi reached into her small bag and pulled out a snow-white porcelain bottle, handing it to Chenxuan.
"Sister Chen, take this medicine. Apply it to the birthmark area after cleansing your face morning and night. The birthmark on your face should be completely gone in less than a month. However..."
When she heard that her birthmark could be cured, Shen Xuan's eyes burst with uncontrollable joy, but the light was extinguished instantly when she heard Qi Qi say "however".
"It's alright, little master. Just tell me what's wrong. Anyway... it can't get any worse than it is now."
Back when this large birthmark suddenly appeared on her face, she was devastated. She locked herself in her room and went crazy, but she didn't dare to smash things too much, for fear of upsetting her family.
She just bit her wrist tightly, not daring to cry too loudly.
At first, she tried to cover it up with makeup, but later she found that no matter how good the concealer was, it couldn't cover up that large area of ​​blemishes, and she was devastated.
She also tried to ask her family for help, but her parents' first reaction upon seeing her face was disgust and aversion.
Although they didn't say anything and offered to take her to the hospital for a checkup, their disgusted looks were like a thorn, deeply embedded in her heart.
The dermatologist performed many tests on her and prescribed many medications, but none of them could solve her problem.
The large birthmarks that appeared overnight were like malignant tumors; the cause could not be found, and they could not be removed.
Her parents' gazes towards her grew increasingly indifferent; they even looked down on her, deeming her a disgrace, and forbade her from leaving the house. If it weren't for the last time Shen Yan forgot her documents and asked her to deliver them, she wouldn't have met Ji Beichen, nor would she have known that the little boy she had saved as a child, who had sworn to marry her, actually lived in the same city as her.
Even if they were in the same city, what difference would it make? Her face has changed so much now; she's no longer a good match for him.
Even if she wasn't good enough for him, she didn't want him to be schemed against by that vicious woman, Shen Yan.
Qiqi watched her unpredictable and constantly changing expression, wondering what she was imagining, and simply finished what she hadn't said.
"What you have on your face isn't exactly a birthmark, but rather a consequence of taking on someone else's karmic debt."
"Debts of the underworld?" Shen Xuan asked in astonishment. "What...debts of the underworld?"
As soon as she uttered those three words, she felt a chill run down her spine for no apparent reason.
No matter how you look at it, the meaning of these three words is chilling.
Qiqi explained, "Every evil deed we do while living in this world is recorded. After death, our souls return to the underworld, where the judges will settle each and every one of our sins. These are what we call karmic debts."
When talking about her major, the young girl's sweet voice carried a serious tone that inexplicably made her seem convincing.
"Within the Xuanmen (mystical sect), there are methods that can transfer the karmic debts of one person to another. The person whose karmic debts are transferred will develop large patches of malignant sores on their body, which is the kind of birthmark on your face."
A tremendous chill rose from the depths of her heart, seeping into her limbs and bones. Shen Xuan seemed to be frozen in place, and the color drained from her face completely.
"You mean someone has placed a karmic debt on me, making me a scapegoat?"
Qiqi nodded, "That's right."
She stared at the birthmark on Shen Xuan's face and said, "Judging from the extent of your birthmark, the other party has been transferring their karmic debt to you for at least two or three years."
Shen Xuan raised her hand and touched her face.
The birthmark on her face did indeed appear suddenly three years ago.
Moreover, over the past three years, she has tried many methods and seen many doctors, but the birthmark has continued to grow larger.
It now takes up almost half of my face!
