Ye Fan was a famous ugly girl in a backwards world where everyone's sense of beauty was upside down.
Back in elementary school, her classmates had already started getting darker, heavier, and balder, making them the envy of parents and teachers. She alone had fair skin, big eyes, and long, curled lashes. She was the textbook example of someone "so ugly it takes your breath away."
People often shunned her and left her standing alone. All she could do was clutch her doll, not knowing what to do.
She overheard her teacher whispering behind her back, "How did this child end up looking like that? She's frightening."
Even her parents and siblings didn't like her very much.
Ye Fan often felt inferior because of it.
One day, she transmigrated into a book and became the poor-background foil in a wealthy-school romance novel.
Looking at her unchanged appearance in the mirror, Ye Fan gave up in despair. All she could do was bundle up in her school uniform, keep her head down, and make herself as inconspicuous as possible, hiding her ugly face like she had in her previous life so she wouldn't offend anyone's eyes again.
Until she fainted on the sports field from malnutrition and her true face was revealed. The entire school fell silent!
A few hours later, the trending topics exploded and the forums were flooded...
#BrokeStudentWithAstoundingBeauty went viral!
#AestheticMiracleStraightOutOfANovel went viral!
In the video, the girl was pale and frail, yet breathtakingly beautiful and utterly captivating. At the meeting of their eyes, reason shattered into dust, leaving only the soul's instinctive, frenzied longing...
After leaving the hospital, Ye Fan found the world growing strange. Wherever she went, burning, frenzied gazes followed her. They were everywhere!
She lowered her head in shame, nearly in tears.
"I'm sorry. My face really is so ugly that it upset everyone."
[Bonus Scene]
Ye Fan decided to use the first money she earned from a part-time job to get "facial reconstruction."
Pointing to the poster she'd brought, her voice trembling, she said, "Doctor, I want to look like this..."
The chief surgeon looked at the terrifyingly ugly "Scarred Demon" on the poster, then slowly raised his gaze to the face before him, beautiful enough to unite the world's standards of beauty. The pen in his hand clattered straight to the floor.
Theme: Inner beauty matters too.
