Despite her reluctance and the stench, Ye Xiaoting obediently waited for Xu Yuan to smear the filth all over her face.

She glared fiercely at Xu Yuan, about to speak, but Xu Yuan immediately stopped her: "From now on, you'd better not speak or move."

"If you don't listen and move around, don't say I didn't warn you when your mouth and eyes become crooked."

Ye Xiaoting realized that Xu Yuan wasn't joking, so she immediately swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue, tightly closed her mouth, and forced herself to remain silent, suppressing the strange smell emanating from her face.

He didn't say anything, but he cursed Xu Yuan countless times in his heart.

"You just wait. I've done everything you said. If it's still not good, and I know you're messing with me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Xu Yuan pretended not to see her expression and turned to say a few words to Ye Xiaoyuan.

"After three hours, wash it off with clean water, and your face will recover."

"You can go back now."

"Isn't Mr. Xu coming back with us?" Ye Xiaoyuan asked anxiously when she saw Xu Yuan about to leave, thinking that her sister's attitude had upset him.

"Xiaoting has been in a bad mood because of her appearance. She said something inappropriate, and I apologize on her behalf."

"Besides, I haven't properly thanked you yet."

"snort!"

When Ye Xiaoting, who was sitting in the car, heard that Xu Yuan was leaving, she rolled her eyes and wrote a line on a piece of paper.

"You're not worried that it won't work and you want to run away early, are you?"

I'm telling you, don't even think about it. You have to come back with us.

Xu Yuan had complete confidence in his method, but it was clear that the two sisters were still uneasy. In the end, they decided to go back with them and wait to see the results.

"Alright, let's go back together then."

Back at Ye Xiaoyuan's house, Xu Yuan sat down on a stool without any hesitation, while Ye Xiaoting sat on the sofa opposite him, staring intently at him.

"Mr. Xu, I'll go make something to eat. Do you have any dietary restrictions?" Ye Xiaoyuan asked.

Xu Yuan waved his hand and said, "I don't have any dietary restrictions, as long as I can fill my stomach."

Ye Xiaoyuan went to the kitchen to cook, and soon the sound of ping-pong balls came from the table. Xu Yuan ignored Ye Xiaoting's gaze, closed her eyes slightly, and began to secretly circulate her qi.

A sumptuous meal was served, and Xu Yuan was surprised that Ye Xiaoyuan, a big star who seemed so high and mighty, could cook such delicious food.

"I wonder if it suits Mr. Xu's taste."

"It's great." Xu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and picked up his bowl and chopsticks to eat heartily.

Looking up, Xu Yuan met Ye Xiaoting's envious gaze and deliberately smacked her lips, saying, "It's so delicious."

Ye Xiaoting sat motionless on the sofa, silently swallowing her saliva.

Her stomach rumbled, but she could only endure it.

Three long hours passed, and Ye Xiaoting glanced at the time before looking at Xu Yuan impatiently.

"Okay, go wash up." Xu Yuan said, squinting her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaoyuan excitedly grabbed her sister's hand and ran to the bathroom. She was so looking forward to seeing her sister's appearance restored.

"what……"

Xu Yuan, who was sitting on a stool in the living room, heard two sisters, one big and one small, exclaim in surprise from the bathroom.

"It's all done, really all done."

"Very good."

Ye Xiaoyuan reached out and hugged Ye Xiaoting's face, bursting into tears that could almost be heard throughout the entire neighborhood.

Ye Xiaoting touched her face in disbelief.

"Sis, go find a mirror, I need to see myself."

Ye Xiaoyuan ran out, but after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find a mirror.

Since Ye Xiaoting was disfigured, there hasn't been a single mirror in her home, and she rarely looks in one.

"A cell phone, yes, a cell phone."

Ye Xiaoyuan grabbed the phone on the table, turned on the selfie mode, and pushed it in front of Ye Xiaoting.

"Xiaoting, look, it's really healed."

It's exactly the same as before.

Ye Xiaoting stared at her reflection on her phone screen, her mouth agape in surprise. Her throat felt constricted, and she couldn't speak, only tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

"This is me, it really is me."

She choked out, "I'm finally back."

"They're back, they're back."

The two sisters embraced and wept bitterly, releasing the resentment and grievances they had accumulated over the years.

"I no longer have to hide in a dark room."

Ye Xiaoyuan raised her hand to wipe away Ye Xiaoting's tears and pulled her to stand respectfully in front of Xu Yuan.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu."

"Mr. Xu, I'm so sorry."

Ye Xiaoting bowed deeply to Xu Yuan and said, "I apologize for my rudeness towards you before."

I forgive you.

Xu Yuan waved his hand magnanimously; he hadn't been angry at all initially.

"Mr. Xu, my sister and I will never forget your great kindness."

Ye Xiaoyuan took a bank card out of her bag and handed it to Xu Yuan: "This is a small token of my appreciation."

"I know this is not enough to express my gratitude, but I really don't know what better way to thank you."

"In this back and forth, you saved the lives of both of us sisters."

Xu Yuan waved her hand and refused, saying, "I'm helping you not for money, but for the sake of your sisterly bond."

Seeing Ye Xiaoyuan's insistence, Xu Yuan smiled and said softly, "If you really want to thank me, then don't give me this money."

Give it to those who need it.

For example, helping children who can't afford to go to school, or buying school supplies for children in remote mountainous areas.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaoyuan and Ye Xiaoting were both stunned, never expecting Xu Yuan to say such a thing.

Having witnessed the coldness and warmth of human relationships in society, and the constant talk of self-interest, they were surprised to learn for the first time that someone would help others without expecting money.

The image of wishing instantly became much more important to them.

Ye Xiaoyuan secretly vowed to keep her promise and help those children.

In addition, funds should be set up in the name of making a wish, or even used to build primary schools.

Xu Yuan got up to say goodbye and prepared to leave when a loud knocking sounded at the door.

"Open the door, open the door quickly!"

"Ye Xiaoyuan, I know you're inside. Open the door for me."

Upon hearing the man's voice outside, Ye Xiaoyuan's joy instantly vanished.

One of the main reasons she and her sister moved here was to escape men from outside, but she never expected him to still find them.

Noticing the change in the sisters' expressions, Xu Yuan casually asked, "Do you owe someone money?"

"No," Ye Xiaoyuan said in a low voice, shaking her head helplessly. "He's the one who introduced the master to us before."

"Even after we stopped making offerings, he still wouldn't let us off the hook."

They even used this incident to extort money from us.

"Open the door." Xu Yuan looked at the doorway with one hand behind her back.

"I've been wanting to meet this master."

If we don't teach them a lesson, who knows how many more people they'll harm.

"Maybe we should just forget about it," Ye Xiaoyuan advised in a low voice. "This guy knows a lot of people; he has connections with all sorts of people, both the legitimate and the illegitimate."

"Mr. Xu, we shouldn't get involved with this kind of person."

He's that kind of scoundrel.
