She got dressed and approached the vanity to take in her own appearance. There weren't any scars left on her face. She was truly stunningly beautiful!
It was no wonder that even Lisa was dazed looking at her beauty.
In her previous life, Doctor Shi had instructed her to continue using the medicinal paste for several days even after the scars faded. He had stated that this would help her skin appear especially smooth and soft to touch later on.
Thus, she approached the wine cabinet and reached for the small bottle of medicine. She applied a layer of it on her skin like a face mask.
She felt a little stuffy from staying in all day and decided to endure the discomfort to head out for a walk.
Normally, she would climb down the spiral staircase.
However, as her legs were still sore, she decided to take the elevator.
Ding!
With this noise, the elevator came to a stop. She stepped out of it and walked through the living room into the backyard.
There were several maids in the midst of cleaning the yard. When they saw her, their gaze turned strange.
A group of bodyguards who were on patrol walked past her gallantly.
A few of them also shot her strange looks.
Jennie found their behavior to be weird. She brought her small mirror out to look at her own reflection. As per normal, her skin was covered in medicine and her true appearance was not showing.
Why were these bodyguards and maids looking at her weirdly?
Was it because she had a good figure? That didn't seem right. Her diet had succeeded quite some time ago.
She approached a corner of the yard and suddenly heard two maids conversing.
"Do you know Young Master brought a woman home with him today. Although I stood quite far away and didn't manage to get a good look at her, I'm certain that she is very beautiful." One of the maids said in a hushed voice.
The other maid was very interested in this piece of gossip. "If Young Master brought a beautiful woman home, does that mean that Jennie, the ugly bitch, is about to be forced off the stage?"
"Of course. I asked around but I'm not sure where Young Master has arranged for the beautiful woman to stay. I haven't seen her around."
"The Yu Ting Villa is so big. Even if Jennie is staying here, Young Master can make it happen that she'll never find out about it."
Jennie began to understand the matter. It turned out that the bodyguards and maids had mistaken the woman whom Lisa brought home today to be someone else. They assumed that she was about to lose her position.
It was no wonder that some of them had looked at her in sympathy.
She coughed lightly.
When the two maids saw her, they immediately jumped in surprise. One of them was especially flustered. "Miss Kim, why are you here?"
"I'm an ugly bitch?" She asked coldly.
"This..." The second maid lowered her head.
"Regardless of whether or not I'm ugly, appearances aren't something anyone can control." Jennie's expression was cold. "It's fine if you wish to gossip. But as a subordinate, how could you run your mouth off like that? Calling your female master 'ugly'?"
One of the maids saw that there wasn't anyone else around. So she became bold and mocked her. "'Female master'? You're about to be chased out of this place. How could our young master possibly take a liking to such an ugly woman? Compared to you, it's more likely that he'll take a liking to me."
Pa!
Jennie delivered a tight slap to her face.
The maid glared at her harshly. "You actually dared to hit me?"
She had been long jealous of this ugly bitch for having the young master's love. She felt that she was much more beautiful than Jennie. On what basis did she deserve the young master's love?
"Even if I haven't married Lisa, even if I'm still a guest in this place," Jennie frowned lightly and her expression was cold, "with your attitude alone, I'm going light on you by only giving you a slap."
"You..." The maid glared at her harshly. She dearly wished that she could rip off her skin.
Butler Zhao approached them and asked. "Chun Yu, what happened?"
