Xia Shi lowered her eyes and said nothing.

She had grown accustomed to wearing this face. Everyone who saw her would show a disgusted expression, and quite a few would even vomit right in front of her.

No one would covet her anymore.

These five years, she had led a very peaceful life.

She had seen too much of the darkness in the entertainment industry. Over the years, she had both flourished and fallen into despair, and she had long since let it all go.

She no longer had the desire to heal this face.

But, Zhai En...

Thinking of the guilty look in Zhai En’s eyes when he looked at her, she felt a little uneasy.

She didn’t care about her own face, but what about him, did he not care either?

Who would like a woman with a disfigured face?

Even if he didn’t care, what about others?

Imagining the look of people when they saw her and Zhai En together, as if seeing a beauty and a beast, Xia Shi felt as if a needle had pricked her heart.

She also wondered how he was doing now...

Looking at the several bottles of ointment in front of Xia Weibao, Xia Shi felt a little hesitant.

"Sister Xia Shi, what are you hesitating for? Think about how dazzling you used to be, how glorious. Are you really willing to give up just like that?"

"Qiao Yuchu is living it up everyday under the spotlight, flaunting herself, even seducing your man, and it doesn’t anger you?"

"Get your face treated. With your ability, you can crush her in no time and leave her with nowhere to hide. Let her know that not just anyone can steal your man!"

Xia Shi was somewhat swayed, how could she be willing to give up!

Everything she once had was hard-earned. Just when she was about to reach the pinnacle, she was knocked down into hell, left with nothing.

Her man, her honor, the savings of so many years, all of it was taken away by Qiao Yuchu!

"My face... can it really be healed?"

Xia Weibao gave her a glare, "Are you doubting my medical skills?"

Xia Shi hesitated, "It’s been so long already, these scars have all become permanent, and the wounds were so deep back then..."

Her Majesty the Empress couldn’t stay calm; the title of divine doctor had always been her pride, and now it was being questioned!

"Sister Xia Shi! You can doubt my husband’s capabilities, but you absolutely cannot doubt my medical skills!"

Xia Shi, "..."

Director Lu isn’t capable?

Director Lu didn’t seem like someone who’s all show and no substance, and you look so radiant every day, like someone whose marital life isn’t harmonious? Obviously, you are nourished by love to the fullest.

Xia Weibao stuffed all the ointments into Xia Shi’s arms, "Do as I say, and in less than a month you’ll be so beautiful that mirrors will shatter when you pass by."

Xia Shi couldn’t help but cry and laugh, what kind of metaphor is this?

But since Xia Weibao said so, she’ll give it a try.

Xia Weibao, "It just so happens that the casting for ’Intrigue Within’ ends in about twenty days. By then, have Director Zhai delay the shooting a bit, and we can start filming after your face is healed.

Seize the opportunity for a comeback, and rise straight to the top!"

Hearing her words, Xia Shi was taken aback, "Wait until my face is healed to start filming?"

"Of course, Mu Shi’s role was originally prepared by Director Zhai for you. Once your face is better, it’s only natural for you to take on the role."

Xia Shi was a bit moved, "This role is crucial for you, it could make your name in Hollywood overnight."

Xia Weibao waved her hand, "No need, I can take other roles in the future. Mu Shi, loving Mu Shi, what a heartfelt confession.

This was tailor-made by Director Zhai for you, and naturally, he would bring Mu Shi’s character with you in mind while directing to capture that specific feel.

Changing to someone else would alter the essence, what’s the point in ruining a character."
