The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 21: Chapter 021 Transformation

One, two, three... a total of nine novels.

He Tiantian counted silently with her eyes and almost spewed a mouthful of old blood.

She peeked out from behind her phone, silently glanced at Zhou Zixuan who was still chatting with classmates, and then shifted her gaze back.

A small figure in He Tiantian’s heart was sobbing: Woo woo, could it be, Zhou Zixuan, do you really dislike me that much?

He Tiantian randomly opened one book and sure enough, the supporting character’s name was ”He Tiantian”.

He Tiantian: ...

No need to ask, in this period drama called ”Seventy Farm Girl,” she, He Tiantian, must be a vicious villain.

He Tiantian didn’t open the novel but glanced at the word count, hmm, not much, only about two hundred thousand words.

So, has this book also been abandoned?

”Student Xiao D, are the worlds I’m about to enter the ones in these books?”

He Tiantian couldn’t hold back and silently asked Student Xiao D in her mind.

”Not necessarily!” Student Xiao D’s unique mechanical tone, calm and steady, ”He Tiantian, don’t think you only have one ’enemy’.”

He Tiantian: ?!?!?

Damn, what have I even done?

I, who am like an invisible presence in class, how could I attract so many enemies?

Also, isn’t it enough for these people to give me the cold shoulder or deliberately ostracize me normally? Do they really, really have to vent in novels too?

”... you really don’t know?”

Yet Student Xiao D spoke in a tone as if saying ”you’re not at Versailles.”

”No, I, don’t, know!” He Tiantian had a numb look.

”Go home later, look in a mirror!” Student Xiao D could feel He Tiantian’s heartbeat, hmm, her heartbeat was normal when she said ”I don’t know.”

So, He Tiantian was not lying.

Student Xiao D was a bit incredulous at first, but then it realized: the previous He Tiantian was an insecure, sensitive, and timid person.

She completely lacked confidence and always felt inferior to others.

She was best at doubting herself and negating herself.

She never knew that, unseen by her, there were people secretly envying her, seeing her as their imagined rival!

”Look in a mirror?”

He Tiantian was no longer her former self, although in reality, she seemed to have only taken a nap.

But in the book world, she had already lived through a long lifetime.

She was no longer insecure, no longer lacking love; in the previous world, she had gained the respect of many because of her ”super magical medical skill.”

Some adorable children even idolized her!

The now confident and proud He Tiantian who had returned from the book world to reality had just been momentarily puzzled.

After hearing Student Xiao D’s reminder, an idea flashed through He Tiantian’s mind.

She hurriedly picked up her phone and turned on the camera.

A massive selfie appeared on the phone screen.

He Tiantian saw a face that was both familiar and strange.

Familiar because she had seen it for more than a decade in reality, and even in the book world, her appearance hadn’t changed much.

But she felt it was also strange: What the hell, why do I have such long, thick bangs?

Positively, He Tiantian blew air upwards, but the thick bangs stubbornly didn’t move!

He Tiantian: !!!

Out of desperation, He Tiantian had no choice but to stretch out her palm, press it against her forehead, and forcefully push upwards.

The thick bangs were pushed to the top of her head, revealing a smooth, fair forehead.

A front camera without beauty mode and filters is absolutely devilish.

Yet He Tiantian’s attractiveness had withstood the test.

Her petite, exquisite melon-seed face, naturally double-lidded eyes, pair of black and bright almond eyes, her nose wasn’t particularly high but was surely pleasant-looking.

Her lips were not too thick or too thin, just that due to her extreme thinness, seemingly malnourished, even her lip color was also quite pale.

Hmm, with some good nurturing and putting on about fifteen to seventeen pounds, her body could reach an optimal state.

She may not be stunningly beautiful, but she was definitely a delicate beauty.

”...So, are my ’enemies’ jealous because I’m pretty?”

He Tiantian continued to chat with Student Xiao D.

”Not just about looks. If it were someone like Zhou Zixuan, who’s confident and clever, even if she were pretty, she wouldn’t spark jealousy among the same gender!”

Although Xiao D is a smart assistant, it still understood and empathized with human emotions.

”And me, bad at studies, without any talents, I’m just a drag in the class, someone like me should be like a rat in the gutter, the worst in every aspect!”

He Tiantian understood what Student Xiao D meant and said indifferently, ”Yet, such an ordinary person possesses a beautiful face—”

This easily leads to feelings of rejection, disgust, and jealousy from other girls.

If He Tiantian was just bad at studies but confident and flashy herself, able to fully display her youth and beauty,

perhaps the others wouldn’t feel this way.

But He Tiantian is timid and has low self-esteem, even hiding her face behind bangs, appearing plain and dull, an easy target.

Bullying the weak is human nature; seeing He Tiantian like this, some classmates couldn’t help but let their negative emotions grow unchecked, even amplified.

Realizing this, He Tiantian wasn’t too heartbroken or offended.

Because whatever she had endured in the past was now behind her.

The current He Tiantian had grown incredibly strong inside, not fearing any harm.

And besides, be it Zhou Zixuan or those boys who usually bullied her, they were all seventeen or eighteen-year-old high school students.

Their cunning and methods were limited.

Facing the screen, He Tiantian made a face and let go of her hand, her thick bangs covering a third of her face again.

Ding ling!

Study hall began.

As a high school sophomore, her regular homework was still extremely heavy.

In the last world, He Tiantian had taken the college entrance exams and scored quite well.

But she had lived an entire lifetime in that world.

Knowledge from her high school years was almost entirely forgotten.

”Student Xiao D, those characters in rebirth novels are too incredible. After so many years, they return to school and still manage to score highly, even becoming top scholars!”

He Tiantian put on her clunky black-framed glasses and stared blankly at a thick math workbook.

Whimpering, math is just so annoying.

It’s only really used for the exam; besides that, in everyday life, who uses calculus, functions, and sequences?

Suddenly He Tiantian realized, being able to travel into books and experience different lives isn’t entirely a good thing.

Taking the college entrance exams over and over, repeatedly reliving her school days, she might even end up in ancient times learning all those old women’s rules... just thinking about it made her want to cry, o(╥﹏╥)o

Her mood quickly declined.

However, after evening self-study and as she left the school with her backpack,

He Tiantian had not forgotten the important stuff.

First, she ran to an eyeglass store near the school and got a pair of light, thin-framed glasses.

While waiting for the glasses, He Tiantian went to a nearby barbershop, ”I’d like to trim my bangs, just switch to see-through bangs.”

She didn’t want those thick bangs that could steam up heat rash, looking dumb and depressingly dreary.

”Okay, need to cut them short?” TONY the stylist, with dyed yellow hair, asked warmly and fully.

”No need, just tweak the layers a bit, so it doesn’t look so dowdy!”

He Tiantian shook her head in front of the mirror, unable to stand the silly student haircut, straight and flat without any layers.

”Alright, got it!”

TONY styled He Tiantian’s hair, and upon seeing her delicate features after revealing her forehead, his eyes lit up.

Hey, inspiration struck!

An hour later, He Tiantian, almost completely changing her hairstyle and wearing the light thin-rimmed glasses, backpacked home a few streets away.

Passing by a neighbor, the person barely recognized her.

He Tiantian greeted them with a smile, startling the neighbor even more—

Oh my, the He family’s child, always walking with her head down and avoiding people, and if she happened to see an acquaintance face-to-face, she’d pretend not to see them.

Her timid and cowardly demeanor was frankly unlikable.

What happened to this child today, standing tall and even smiling and initiating greetings!

Wait, and her appearance—

My goodness, how had they not noticed before, this child was actually so bright and lovely...
