The Fortune-Teller Said I'd Be Ugly

Synopsis

Grandmother had made her rule clear: the prettiest child would inherit the Gu family's cosmetics business. My unborn half-sister was already being hailed as a fairy descended from heaven. Then the fortune-teller felt my mother's belly and shook his head. “Puffy eyelids. Unruly brows. This child will be too ugly to keep. You should take medicine to end the pregnancy.” Concubine Qiao laughed. “Like mother, like child. That scar on your face is enough to put anyone off their food. How pretty could your baby possibly be?” Mother touched her old scar and forced out an apologetic smile. Inside her belly, I rolled my eyes. Me? Ugly? In my previous life, young gentlemen had nearly broken down a temple door fighting for the prayer cushion beside mine. And every last bit of merit I'd earned since then had gone into beauty points. Let the fortune-teller read mortal faces. Did he really think he could see the face of an immortal?
