Chapter 540: 253 Secret (First Revision)

A person’s physical growth develops with age, and the age of twelve is the best time for bones to grow, with the average number of wrist bones calcifying increasing by one every year during this period.

The best way to determine bone age is to use X-rays to take pictures of the child’s wrist bones, measure the appearance, number, and morphological changes of the bone marrow centers, and standardize them.

Besides X-rays, there are two other kinds of people who can determine bone age.

One is a forensic doctor who examines dead bodies.

The other is Liu Suifeng, who looks at living people.

The core of plastic surgery is bone relocation, and thorough research on the bones of the human body is essential. His eyesight is almost as good as an X-ray; he can spot something wrong at a glance, and with a touch, he can confirm if something is wrong.

Not only does this require talent, but it also takes years of accumulation and practice to reach this level of expertise.

With his right hand on his chin, Liu Suifeng circled Ming Jing 360° while clicking his tongue in admiration, “I know you, the real daughter of the Zhus from Jiangzhou. You participated in that variety show with Qu Feitai for three meals a day, right? I watched it and have known of your fame for a long time. Finally, I see you in person today, and you’re really impressive.”

Liu Suifeng knew her thanks to the popularity of that variety show. A young girl brought Ming Jing’s photo to him, wanting to have plastic surgery to look like her. As an aesthetic master, Liu Suifeng naturally loved researching various beauties. The first time he saw her face in a photo, he was captivated.

She was beautiful, but it seemed that she hadn’t yet fully blossomed and appeared a bit childish.

Upon searching the internet, he found out that she was only sixteen or seventeen years old.

He, who never followed variety shows, unexpectedly researched the episodes featuring Ming Jing many times. The growth and development of a person’s bones leave traces, and even if one takes great care of themselves, it cannot stop the passage of time from etching lines and wrinkles into the skin, leaving marks even when smoothed over.

The entertainment industry’s most beautiful woman was created by his hands. No one knew better than him the incredibly advantageous conditions a naturally stunning woman required.

Luo Ziyin’s foundation was already excellent, but a slight imperfection was enough to make her fade into the background. With his subtle adjustments, she gained a unique recognition and relied on her beauty to dominate the entertainment industry. The genetic lottery was even harder to win than actual lotteries.

Beauty lies in the bones, not the skin. The skin, like a flower, may blossom brightly but will eventually wither as time passes.

However, for a woman with beautiful bone structure, even after decades have passed and their beauty has faded, they can still defy time with their laughter.

The beauty before him had a perfect skull, hairline, facial features, face shape, and body proportions. Even the prominent vein on her neck was incredibly elegant and distinctive.

With both beauty in the bones and the skin, and the extraordinary conditions bestowed by nature, combined with the demeanor of elegance and the so-called temperament, this was a truly timeless beauty.

He had always been puzzled that her appearance seemed youthful yet her temperament mature, these two contradictory aspects mixed together often made people overlook her childish features. Her height also had a deceptive effect; it should come from her genes, and thus naturally lent itself to the perfect disguise.

She might deceive others, but she could not fool him.

Looking at the girl in white before him, who was calm and elegant, his eyes were full of interest.

She was the only one among the beauties he had seen whose temperament surpassed her appearance.

Most beautiful women in the entertainment industry know that they are beautiful from a young age. Their beauty often grants them special treatment in society. They use their beauty skillfully to achieve certain goals, relying on their beauty, ultimately falling short of true elegance. Beautiful as they are, they lack a special flavor.

However, the girl before him was like a dusty pearl, which would emit a remarkable splendor when the dust was wiped away and could not be compared to anything else.

And that supposed dust was nothing more than time.

A hint of interest flashed in Liu Suifeng’s eyes. This girl must be hiding many secrets.

But who doesn’t have secrets?

“However, this face gives me a familiar feeling…” Liu Suifeng closed his eyes, trying to recall.

“Alright, brother, we know you’re an expert. But Ming Jing’s face doesn’t need your blade, does it?”

Liu Suifeng’s thoughts were interrupted by Liu Muxue’s words. He put it to the back of his mind and nodded, “Indeed, it doesn’t need my blade, because time is the best knife.”
