Chapter 98: Her Current Look

Translator: Law  Editor: Hitesh_

After entering her space, Lin Qiao directly showed up beside the pile of furniture which belonged to Qiu Lili. The clearing next to the former’s old furniture area was now occupied by things from where Qiu Lili lived before. She hadn’t sorted them out yet, so these things were just piled here randomly.

Lin Qiao rummaged a little and found a dressing table. She pulled open the drawer of the dressing table and took out the scissors.

On the other side, Jujun had also heard the noise she made. In fact, she had sensed Lin Qiao earlier when the latter came out of the lake, but didn’t come out to see what happened. However, she did come out this time, and the little boy wasn’t following her.

Once she came out of the small space, she saw Lin Qiao cutting her now entangled hair with a scissor.

‘You should have done that long ago! Your hair are even uglier than that of a ghost. They still looked awful even when you tied them up.’ Junjun thought.

Soon, Lin Qiao bobbed her hair and sensed a coolness from her stomach. Her head seemed to be a lot lighter than before, and she felt quite good. However, just before she put down the scissors, she turned to find that Junjun was looking at her with a weird expression from a short distance.

Her asymmetric and messy hairstyle was so awful!

At last, Junjun couldn’t bear looking at Lin Qiao’s hair anymore. She walked over, pointed at the scissors in Lin Qiao’s hand, then at her head.

Lin Qiao understood her meaning. Junjun must have felt that her new hairstyle was too ugly, and wanted to help in cutting her hair.

Lin Qiao didn’t have a mirror, so she had no idea how her hair looked at the moment. However, judging by the look in Junjun’s face, she knew that it might be quite bad.

So, Junjun took over the scissors, then signaled for Lin Qiao to squat.

Lin Qiao complied, then felt the other pulling and cutting her hair. A couple of minutes later, Junjun put down the scissors and patted her on the shoulder.

Lin Qiao stood up and touched her own head, finding that her hair was much shorter and neater than before.

At that moment, Junjun found a mirror from Qiu Lili’s belongings, then put it up to Lin Qiao’s face.

Lin Qiao was amazed by her short hair and scarred face in the mirror. So, she automatically took over the mirror and prepared to take a closer look at herself.

Before this, she hadn’t had the chance to look at herself in the mirror. She had learned that Lu Tianyu had a pretty face from the latter’s memories, but had never looked at that face with her own eyes. All she had was the memories in her head.

At this moment, she saw an oval face in the mirror. The face was rather small, so it was completely damaged by the few large scars on it. She saw that her eyes were black, nose was straight, and that her lips looked normal, without being cracked like that of other zombies.

She imagined herself with a cracked face and felt that that would be even scarier than the scars on her face.

She then looked closer and found that her mouth was actually pretty. Her mouth wasn’t small or full, but had a beautiful shape. The upper lip was slightly thinner than the lower lip. Lin Qiao felt that her mouth was nice-looking, even though it wasn’t really hers.

Her straight-nose was rather eye-catching, as it was the first thing she noticed on her face. Her eyes were purely black, such that she couldn’t find her own pupils. Those eyes were pretty as well, slightly rising at the ends, with long and curly eyelashes.

Without those scars, her eyes, nose, and mouth would look stunning on her perfectly shaped face.

However, no one else in the base had seen that face of Lu Tianyu without makeup. Of course, people could scarcely see that before the apocalypse either because she had started learning how to make up since she was sixteen. After that, she began wearing makeup every day. Not even Lu Tianyi had seen her without makeup since then, because once she removed it, she would stay in her room without coming out.

Therefore, everyone who was now familiar with her only remembered her face covered with thick makeup. In the post-apocalyptic world, people cared about nothing more than filling their stomachs and living in nice places without being eaten by zombies. Most of the human survivors had forgotten about those cosmetics which were worthless after the apocalypse but expensive before that, but Lu Tianyu had collected tons of them!

She traded the food given by Yang Chao for her cosmetics. Because of that, Yang Chao wanted to kill her many times. Once, she actually traded a bagful of polished rice for a lipstick! Back then, Yang Chao didn’t kill her because he still wanted her for her beautiful body and face.

When these memories emerged in Lin Qiao’s mind, she felt that Lu Tianxu had truly lived an extravagant life. No wonder Yang Chao got tired of her so soon, and even killed her.

Seeing that her messy hair had become short and neat, Lin Qiao suddenly felt her mood turning better.

She didn’t expect her hair-cutting to be so successful. Her hair couldn’t cover the scars on her face anymore, but before long, those scars would all be healed. After learning that the energy in the lake was able to fix her body, Lin Qiao had stopped worrying about her face.

She now knew that she could trigger the energy in the lake with the energy contained in the nuclei of other zombies. That didn’t even require much of efforts, as all she needed to do was to simply throw her targets into the lake. Now, she was able to turn herself invisible, so she had no fear!

Her invisibility was the best tool to launch sneak attacks, and just couldn’t be more useful!

She glanced at the center of the lake, then turned back to the mirror to look at her dark and cold eyes. She felt that she needed to find a pair of sunglasses to cover those eyes, so she wondered if Qiu Lili happened to have collected some.

With that thought, she put the mirror into Junjun’s hands, then began rummaging.

While Lin Qiao was looking for a pair of sunglasses, Qiu Lili was standing on a rock, idly waiting for her to show up. Suddenly, her eyes moved, and then she turned her face to the road in the direction they had traveled from.

Maybe because all creatures in this area had been cleaned away by that dead level-four zombie, it was all quiet now, and a slight noise immediately caught Qiu Lili’s attention. But of course, she would still be able to sense it even if this area was noisy.

Miles away, a commonly-seen modified car was driving toward her.

Eight people were sitting in the car, while a strange woman was calmly sitting on the top. It was a zombie-hunting squad with nine members.

The woman sitting on top of the car was average-looking. Her hair were tied in a high ponytail, reaching her thighs. Her legs were crossed, back straight. She was sitting very stably on top of the car, such that no matter how quickly the car turned or how intensely it bumped, she was always motionless.

She was facing the rear of the car, looking a little slender. She was wearing a slim-fit sports suit, which had emphasized her thin and straight waist.

Her face was average-looking, but flawless. In the post-apocalyptic world where women were scarce, a woman with such a clean face would be considered quite adorable.

…Only if the look on her face was just a little warmer.
