From Runaway Bride to Global Queen

Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Disfigurement

Seeing Han Lewen still looking confused, Qiao Yi couldn’t help but explain.

“I think the person who designed this wasn’t aiming to kill me, but to disfigure and injure me, so I’ll play right into their hands. In a few days, it’ll be Old Mr. Lu’s birthday feast, and that person will definitely show up eagerly to see my disfigured face, then…”

“Then whoever loses their composure is the person who plotted against you!”

Han Lewen finally caught on, clapping her hands and praising the plan.

“Starting today, none of you should come to see me, just say I don’t want to see anyone, I’ll be discharged from the hospital this afternoon and go home to recover!”

Qiao Yi looked like a cunning little fox who had stolen a treat, her eyes shining, twirling around, seemingly plotting something mischievous.

This matter had to be arranged properly, everyone in the hospital room left, Lu Yanchuan seemed reluctant to go but was eventually called away by a phone call.

Only Qiao Yi was left in the hospital room, the smile on her face gradually faded, her eyes emotionless as she stared into a void.

Qiao Xin crossed the line this time, Qiao Yi had endured her over and over, each time wanting to teach her a harsh lesson, but thinking of Qiao Benqing and Zhao Wenjing, Qiao Yi always held back.

Although Qiao Benqing and Zhao Wenjing didn’t like this daughter very much, Qiao Xin was still their child, and if Qiao Xin was hurt, they would worry and be distressed.

Qiao Yi didn’t want to make her parents sad, so she endured Qiao Xin time and again, but this time, Qiao Xin really went too far!

Yun Qing walked in, saw the distracted Qiao Yi, knocked on the door to bring her back to reality.

“The boss told me to wrap up your face too.”

Since last night, after saying things she shouldn’t have, Yun Qing has always been cautious around Qiao Yi, afraid of observing something inappropriate again.

Qiao Yi responded, knowing that if you are going to act, you need to act fully, even if she was alone in the hospital room, she couldn’t relax.

In no time, Qiao Yi completely turned into a mummy, using her phone screen to check, even she was startled by her own image.

It really looked like her face had suffered multiple injuries!

Qiao Yi was very satisfied with her new look, but looking left and right, she felt something was missing.

“Do you have any blood? Add a few drops on the gauze, wouldn’t that look more realistic?”

Yun Qing was persuaded by Qiao Yi, and after repeated requests, went to mix some paint, dabbed it onto the gauze, and wrapped it up again.

Now it looked more realistic, Qiao Yi felt that this was definitely the face of someone who had been disfigured!

When Lu Yanchuan returned and saw Qiao Yi’s new appearance, he too was startled, but remembering it was fake, he helped by providing some suggestions.

With the efforts of the three of them, Qiao Yi successfully possessed a severely injured head.

The injuries on Qiao Yi’s body were not serious, but required daily dressing which was quite troublesome.

Especially the wounds on Qiao Yi’s back, which she couldn’t reach by herself, and Lu Yanchuan had to help her with the dressing daily, wasn’t it awkward?

It could also be possible to have the aunt help with the dressing, but Qiao Yi compared the aunt and Lu Yanchuan, and inexplicably felt it was more acceptable to have Lu Yanchuan do it?

She must have some serious illness!

Qiao Yi was cooped up at home, browsing posts and watching the news every day, indeed the news of her disfigurement by the fireworks spread quickly, even the Qiao parents and Old Mr. Lu called to ask.

However, Qiao Yi brushed them off vaguely.

Zhao Wenjing strictly forbade Qiao Yi to play with fireworks again, but she also knew that she couldn’t control Qiao Yi; this was just her way of showing her rejection of fireworks.

On the fifth day of Qiao Yi recuperating, Qiao Xin finally came with a pile of gifts, claiming to visit Qiao Yi.

Playing her part to the fullest, Qiao Yi naturally refused to see her, only letting her glimpse her thoroughly wrapped-up head through the window, then threw a loud and crazy tantrum, further solidifying the rumors of her disfigurement and drastic change in temperament.

To cooperate with Qiao Yi’s plan, Lu Yanchuan had been living in the Lu Mansion during this period, only showing up at night to change Qiao Yi’s bandages; he was otherwise nowhere to be seen.

Qiao Xin left Qiao Yi’s place with a worried look, but internally, she was overjoyed.

It’s as if heaven was on her side, letting Qiao Yi ruin her face! What perfect karma!

Feeling great, Qiao Xin left without seeing Qiao Yi’s cold gaze watching her back from the window.

Time flew by, and it was soon Old Mr. Lu’s birthday.

The invitations, handwritten by Qiao Yi and Lu Yanchuan, were sent out half a month in advance, with more than ten grams of gold powder used on them alone.

On the day of the birthday feast, all of the Lu Family’s younger members returned to the Lu Mansion, and Qiao Yi came back to the mansion a day in advance as well.

Old Mr. Lu almost shouted out loud upon seeing the bandages on Qiao Yi’s head.

Only after Qiao Yi removed the bandages and declared she was healed did the old man beat Lu Yanchuan several times with his cane, making him take the punishment on behalf of the injured Qiao Yi.

Lu Yanchuan thought to himself that the old man simply couldn’t bear to hit his daughter-in-law!

The younger generation of the Lu Family was responsible for welcoming guests, and Qiao Xin finally stepped into the Lu Mansion again, standing next to Lu Ming with a composed and polite smile, but with a hint of obvious pride.

Now that Qiao Yi was disfigured, she was virtually out of the picture; dealing with a ‘ruined’ person like her would be a piece of cake!

Thinking this, the smile on Qiao Xin’s face deepened.

Standing next to her, Lu Ming also smiled smugly, thinking that as long as he could get Qiao Xin into Lu Yanchuan’s bed, he would gain the Lu Family shares she controlled; why wouldn’t he be pleased?

The two of them, each with their own agendas, momentarily seemed quite a match!

Qiao Xin walked around the guest hall of the mansion, didn’t see Qiao Yi, but spotted Lu Yanchuan alone, further confirming her belief about Qiao Yi’s disfigurement.

She was so excited, she almost screamed.

With great effort, Qiao Xin maintained her composure and walked up to Lu Yanchuan with a wine glass in hand.

“Mr. Lu, why haven’t I seen my sister today? Is she feeling unwell? Why isn’t she here with you?”

Qiao Xin, feigning ignorance, was determined to hear exactly what she wanted from Lu Yanchuan before giving up.

Lu Yanchuan didn’t want to deal with her at all, acting as if he hadn’t heard her and completely ignoring Qiao Xin.

Qiao Xin’s expression twisted for a while before she calmed down, persistently following him.

“Mr. Lu, I heard my sister got hurt on her face during the fireworks show, it’s such a pity that when I went to see her, she shut me out.”

Qiao Xin said with a face full of grievance, making it seem as if she was genuinely heartbroken by Qiao Yi’s cold shoulder.

Regardless of what Qiao Xin said, Lu Yanchuan treated it as if he heard nothing, infuriating Qiao Xin who stomped her feet in anger but was helpless against him.
