Chapter 615 - Older Brother, I Love You

Yin Shuiling’s entire face was exquisite and perfect. It was just as if she were the most perfect work of God, but now, there was a scar on her left cheek, and it stood out. This scar ruined the beauty on her face.

The doctor was very regretful. “Miss Yin, I am very sorry. We left a scar behind.”

Yin Shuiling stood up. She tugged the corners of her lips up as she said, “Its fine.”

She walked out of the room.

After she walked along the corridor, the doctors and patients all looked over at her. Everyone was alarmed before they ducked towards the side and kept their distance. Everyone was whispering among themselves, “Oh my god, that woman is disfigured.”

“That’s right. The scar on her left cheek is so ugly. When I saw her just now, I was shocked.”

“That is such a pity. I think she looks quite young. How did she get disfigured? How would she get married in the future? Looks are extremely important to this generation. What man would still want her?”

“If I were a man, I would definitely not want her anymore. Men are men; they want girls to look pretty. She is an ugly monster that would scare anyone who sees her. No man would be able to bring her out for a business dinner. It would be so embarrassing.”

Yin Shuiling walked down the entire corridor, and those people pointed at her back as they chatted about her.

Her face was pale as she went into the kitchen. She cooked the rice, boiled soup, and stir fried the vegetables. She skillfully completed two vegetables and one soup. Xiao Li helped her to send the dishes over to Liu Wanxin’s room.

Yin Shuiling stood by the door to watch, and at this moment, a group of small children ran over. The small children saw her and had wide smiles on their faces. “Ugly monster older sister, ugly monster older sister….”

Some other kids made funny faces at her.

Yin Shuiling looked at those innocent faces in front of her as she slowly smiled. She bent over and waved her hands towards the children. “Come here.”

The small children were all gathered together. They pushed one another in the group, and no one dared to step forward.

Yin Shuiling took out a few colourful marker pens before stooping down. She turned her back to the snowy white walls of the hospital as she started to draw. The small children widened their eyes to look, and no matter how hard they tried to look at it from different angles, they could not tell what Yin Shuiling was drawing.

“Ugly monster older sister, what are you drawing? Are these dark clouds?”

Yin Shuiling was done drawing, and she put the marker pens away. She stretched her hand out to call the group of small children over. “Come. You don’t have to be afraid. I will not harm you all. Didn’t you all want to know what I drew? As long as you all come over to blow on it, you will know what it is.”

“Really?” A daring boy ran over, and he blew a breath of air at the bundle of clouds that Yin Shuiling had drawn.

The bundle of clouds on the wall disappeared, and there were a bunch of colourful flowers in their place. There were even red roses dripping with dew on them.

“Woah…” The small children were all shocked. “Ugly monster older sister, how did you do that? How could you hide a rose behind a bunch of dark clouds?”

“That’s right, ugly monster older sister, although you look really terrifying, you are really so amazing.”

The small children gathered around Yin Shuiling, and they were all looking at her with admiration in their eyes.

Yin Shuiling had a bright smile on her face. She stretched her hand out to touch the head of a small girl by her side.

“Ugly monster older sister, don’t move!” The young girl stretched her chubby little hand out to block the scar on Yin Shuiling’s left cheek. The small girl’s eyes lit up as she said, “Wow, look at this! Ugly monster older sister is so beautiful. She is just as pretty as an angel.”

The other kids were also taken aback.

The small girl suddenly felt moisture on her small chubby hand. She lifted her gaze up to have a look; ugly monster older sister was crying.

The small girl was shocked before she dashed off into the distance.

The other kids also followed and ran off.

Yin Shuiling squatted down on the spot. She curled both of her legs together and used both of her small hands to cover her small face. “Woo woo…” She sobbed out quietly.

Xiao Li brought the empty bowls back and was stumped. Xiao Li looked at the girl who curled herself up into a small ball as she sobbed helplessly in a place where no one was around. Her frail shoulders were shaking as she did so.

Every girl cares about her face, and she also took it to heart.

…

Yin Shuiling went back to her condominium unit at night. The condominium unit was not large, but she was the only one living there, and it made the space seem empty and cold.

She went into the bathroom to take a shower. She wore her nightgown as she sat down on the bed. She took Kitty down, and she poked Kitty’s small face. She spoke to herself as she said, “Kitty, have I become ugly? Everyone is calling me ugly monster. Do you also not recognize me anymore?”

There was an amber light in the room. She wore a mustard yellow spaghetti strap nightgown, and her slim arms were exposed. Her thighs were fair and smooth like fine jade, and even the small strands of hair on it were soft. She faced Kitty and removed her bandage. She was just like a small girl as she pouted her small lips. Her entire face looked upset and depressed as she said, “Kitty, I know that I have become ugly. The hottest entertainment news in T City is about me. Everyone is saying their little princess has been disfigured and has turned into an ugly monster. I do not know how many people are laughing at me right now.”

“It is fine if they do. I do not care about it, but Kitty, after Older Brother comes back, would he not want…me anymore?”

“I know that Older Brother likes me for this face of mine. I cannot accompany him to go out shopping anymore. When his friends come over, I also cannot show my face and greet them anymore. Also…there are so many women by Older Brother’s side, and now, every one of them is way more beautiful than me. How can I compete with them now?”

“Kitty, I am really so useless. My father sold me off, and I even hurt Older Brother. Now, I cannot even protect this face of mine. What did I do wrong?”

Kitty did not know how to speak. She was quiet as she looked at her owner, and she looked on as her owner was lonely and helpless.

Yin Shuiling went closed in to kiss Kitty’s face. “Kitty, let’s give Older Brother a call, okay? Older Brother has been in America for almost a month now. I call him every night, but his phone is always switched off. Kitty, I really miss him so much.”

Her phone was placed on the bed stand. Yin Shuiling stretched her small hand out to take it. She dialed the number that she had memorized in her heart. She used one hand to hug Kitty and the other hand to dial the number.

It was the familiar female voice on the other end — Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off.

Yin Shuiling ended the call before she dialed it again.

On the cool summer’s night, she hugged Kitty as she sat down on the bed. The female voice of the answering machine spoke again and again. She dialed the number again and again. She repeated this action nonstop. At this moment, she did not want to walk anymore in her world. She only wanted to hear the man’s voice. She was so desperate and wanted to get just a touch of warmth from him.

From 10 at night till 2 am in the morning, she kept refreshing the call record in her phone until she was numb at this action. The female voice on the answering machine suddenly disappeared, and what replaced it was a melodious ringing tone.

Yin Shuiling felt herself become alive once again. Did he switch his phone on?

He switched his phone on!

Yin Shuiling was excited and joyous. She obviously knew that he might not answer her call, but this ringtone gave her hope once again.

The thing that she needed most right now was hope.

If a person did not have any hope, then what was the point of living?

She never thought that he would pick up, but the ringtone rang for a moment, and she was connected to the other end immediately. It could be said to be extremely fast. The man’s charming voice came over from the other end. “Hello…”

Yin Shuiling’s face was immediately covered in tears. She moved her red lips and worked very hard to speak, but she did not know what to say. There were so many things that she wanted to tell him inside her heart, but she did not know where to start.

She hugged Kitty tight in her embrace. With her face, she nudged the white fur on Kitty’s body and used her white teeth to bite down on her lower lip, but the sound of her choking up still rang out in the air.

She was sobbing uncontrollably.

The other end was silent for an entire minute. The man was unhappy as his voice rang out, “I don’t have any time to hear you cry. I am going to hang up.”

“Older Brother,” Yin Shuiling said quickly. She sobbed as she breathed through her small nostrils. She cried while she said, “Older Brother, don’t hang up. Older Brother, I love you.”

Older Brother, I love you…

There were many things inside her heart that she wanted to tell him, but she did not know how to say it. She thought that no matter what she wanted to say, it was still this line: she loved him.

After she spoke, the other end did not have any more sound. The man did not give her any response. Yin Shuiling held the phone tight as she said, “Older Brother, I love you, really. I really love you very very much…

“Older Brother, can you come over to accompany me for a while. I really miss you so much. I am almost going crazy thinking about you… Older Brother, I am begging you to come over, okay? I am really so upset, so upset right now. I want you to accompany me…

“Older Brother, I am begging you…”

She used all of the strength in her body to beg him so pathetically. The man on the other end did not say anything at all. Ding, ding. He hung up.

…

He hung up.

The phone in Yin Shuiling’s hand fell onto the floor. She hugged Kitty. Older Brother could not come over, and Older Brother really did not want her anymore.

“Woo woo…” Yin Shuiling broke out into loud sobs.

Ding dong! Ding dong! She’d been crying for a while, and suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Yin Shuiling froze. She thought that she was hallucinating. She stopped crying immediately, and she took a moment to listen. Ding dong! It was really her doorbell.

Yin Shuiling did not have to think to know who it was.

It was Yin Muchen.

Her Older Brother was here.

Yin Shuiling spring off the bed. She wanted to go and open the door, but after she took two steps, she ran to the side of the vanity table. Whoosh! She poured all of her cosmetic products, and she wanted to hide the dent on her face.

She used CC cream and a layer of powder. She felt that it was extremely unnatural. She flew towards the bathroom as she washed her face cleanly. She went back to the front of the mirror to have a look. Her dent was reddened due to her rubbing, and it made her look even more obvious and ugly.

She was frantic and did not know what to do.

Ding dong! The sound of the doorbell did not stop ringing, and the man outside the door was impatient.

Yin Shuiling looked at the light inside the room. Her eyes lit up. She had a plan; she could switch off the lights.

After she switched off the lights, he could not see anything anymore.

Yin Shuiling switched off the lights before she ran to the door to open it.

There was a tall and handsome figure outside the door. An LED light shone in the corridor, and the light shone down on his handsome shoulders and made him look extra mesmerizing and stylish. Yin Shuiling had a glance and did not look again. She was afraid that the lights would shine onto her face, so she turned back and retreated towards the living room.
