After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 21 The Lady’s Decency
Chapter 21: Chapter 21 The Lady’s Decency
Not to mention Zheng Xiuxin, even Zheng Ze himself was dumbfounded.
Was that Nirvana Ointment really so miraculous?
That question might as well have been written on their faces.
Shi Yaoguang looked at Zheng Ze and asked, "You’ve seen the effect of the Nirvana Ointment for yourself, can you believe my sincerity now?"
Zheng Ze nodded foolishly.
Aside from nodding, he couldn’t think of any other way to respond.
After all...
His wound had really healed suddenly.
If this had happened to someone else, he might have suspected that Shi Yaoguang had hired some actors.
Having become the "guinea pig" himself, he experienced the magic of the Nirvana Ointment more directly.
"Ms. Zheng’s facial wounds, after using the Nirvana Ointment, will be mostly repaired, and the rest can be supplemented with other beauty creams. I guarantee that it won’t take more than two months to return to her original state."
"It might even improve the skin, giving her a soft, baby-like complexion."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Xiuxin was genuinely tempted.
Shi Yaoguang then portioned out some Nirvana Ointment for her, "This is enough for half a month. You stick to this for half a month first. Once the foundation of your skin is repaired, I will give you other creams as the situation requires."
Zheng Ze couldn’t hold back and blurted out, "Didn’t my wound heal immediately? Why does my sister need half a month?"
Shi Yaoguang cast him a slightly disdainful glance, "Haste makes waste."
Zheng Ze: "..."
Fearing that Zheng Xiuxin might misunderstand, Shi Yaoguang elaborated, "It’s true that the Nirvana Ointment can heal wounds quickly, but when used on the face, we still aim for a stable recovery. Half a month is the optimal time for a complete recovery."
Zheng Xiuxin nodded vigorously, expressing her gratitude. "Thank you, Miss Shi!"
If she had any doubts about Shi Yaoguang before, they were completely gone now.
With such a miraculous cream in Shi Yaoguang’s possession, if she really wanted to make a fortune, wouldn’t using the ointment be more promising than selling fake medicine on the live stream?
Not to mention, the ability to heal wounds quickly is something that other medicines could not accomplish.
Meeting Zheng Xiuxin’s grateful gaze, Shi Yaoguang sighed, "No need to thank me, it’s what I should do."
In fact, Shi Yaoguang truly felt that she owed her.
In her previous life, Zheng Xiuxin had also been disfigured.
Back then, she had taken the blame for An Siqi, and with the influence of the Shi Family, the matter was hastily dealt with.
Zheng Xiuxin’s disfigurement was so severe that even plastic surgery couldn’t restore her. One could only imagine the pressure she faced with such a face. freewebnoveℓ.com
Shi Yaoguang specifically sought her out, partly out of a desire to atone.
Even if her actions at the time were against her will.
Zheng Xiuxin was unaware of what Shi Yaoguang was thinking.
Shi Yaoguang, clearly unrelated to the live stream incident, stood up to help her. That was enough to move Zheng Xiuxin to tears.
If it weren’t for Shi Yaoguang’s cream, she might have had to live with a disfigured face for the rest of her life.
"Miss Shi has given me a new lease on life. If you need my help with anything in the future, please let me know!"
Shi Yaoguang was quite straightforward with her response.
Since the other party had offered, accepting would also set her mind at ease.
Having temporarily dealt with Zheng Xiuxin’s issues, Shi Yaoguang returned to Quan Mansion.
"Madam, you’re back."
The butler greeted her enthusiastically as soon as he saw her.
Shi Yaoguang looked at him, feeling that he was a bit too enthusiastic today.
"Butler, has something happened that I’m not aware of?"
The butler touched his nose awkwardly, "The bodyguard who followed you out today has spread the news of your heroic deeds..."
Shi Yaoguang: "..."
"I was worried you would be affected when the live streaming company bought trolls to mislead netizens into criticizing you, but it turned out you had everything under control," the butler said with an admiring expression.
Shi Yaoguang held her forehead, not finding anything to be proud of, and after thinking for a while, she asked, "Did people from Jinhe Palace cause any trouble for Third Master?"
"No, although Jinhe Palace is also a family business, it’s far from comparable to the Quan family. Even if they have grievances, they wouldn’t dare cause a fuss in front of Third Master."
Shi Yaoguang nodded, relieved that for whatever reason, they hadn’t caused any trouble.
If they dared to come, she wouldn’t mind...
Giving them a send-off!
After all, they were up to no good.
Just as Shi Yaoguang finished thinking this, she heard the bell at the door ring.
She glanced at the butler, who put on a clueless expression: "I’ll go see who it is."
Quan Jinbei preferred peace and quiet. Normally, guests wouldn’t show up at Quan Mansion uninvited.
"Mr. Shi, Mrs. Shi."
The butler opened the door, and seeing Mr. and Mrs. Shi’s puzzled questioning, he asked, "What brings you two here?"
Mr. Shi looked unhappy, "Shi Yaoguang has caused such a big scandal, how could I not come?"
The butler solemnly denied his claim, "The young mistress has always been well-behaved. I’m not sure where Mr. Shi heard such unfounded rumors to have such a misunderstanding about her."
Well-behaved?
Listening to this, Mr. Shi almost couldn’t recognize the term anymore.
If Shi Yaoguang was well-behaved, then there wouldn’t be any troublemakers in this world!
Ever since the engagement banquet, Shi Yaoguang had been acting as if possessed, calling the police on her sister and fiancé, provoking the young master of the Nie family at school, and intentionally playing a broadcast that made the Shi family lose face.
There were even online leaks claiming she used her status as a wealthy heiress to sell many toxic cosmetics on live streams, causing damage to people’s faces and bringing them to her doorstep!
Incident by incident, Mr. Shi truly felt that Shi Yaoguang was a calamity, her existence a constant source of unrest for the Shi family.
At that moment, a sapphire blue Ferrari stopped at the entrance of Quan Mansion.
Quan Sicheng stepped out of the car and, seeing the scene at the door, asked, "Dad, Mom, why haven’t you gone in yet?"
Shi Yiqing also got out of the car and came to Mrs. Shi’s side, affectionately taking her arm, "Mom, were you waiting for me?"
Mrs. Shi smiled broadly and replied, "You and Xiao Cheng are so loving, we old folks naturally have to wait for you, right?"
Shi Yiqing blushed, "Mom, what are you talking about? Brother Sicheng and I are not like that."
The butler watched with a cold eye as they performed their mother-daughter act, "Quan Mansion is not a stage. If you want to perform, please go elsewhere."
Mrs. Shi and Shi Yiqing both stiffened at this, and Quan Sicheng stepped forward to smooth things over, "The butler is just joking; let’s not stand at the door. Come on in."
As he spoke, he took the lead to walk inside.
After just a couple of steps, the butler stopped him.
Quan Sicheng showed some dissatisfaction, "Butler, what do you mean by this?"
The butler spoke formally, "Fourth Young Master, did you present a visiting card when you came here today?"
Quan Sicheng felt annoyed as this visit had been spontaneous; how could he have prepared a visiting card?
Moreover, he thought that by bringing his fiancée and future in-laws, Quan Jinbei would at least give him face and let him in directly. He hadn’t expected the butler to be so oblivious to the situation.
