~6 min read 1,092 words

"Humans are complex contradictions. When there are a hundred people, there are all kinds of them, meaning that when there are many people, there are all kinds of people."

"Some are kind, some are evil. Kind people can do bad things, and evil people can also do good things."

"In short, you will likely encounter this situation frequently in your future lives. There is no way around it; you are too beautiful, and there will always be garbage that doesn't know its place jumping out asking to be cleaned up."

Su Quan smiled at the half-understanding Diana and Wei Ni Li Ya, and used the Chaos Force to completely annihilate the drunkard's corpse.

Yes, the kind where not even slag is left!

"Let's keep walking."

"Mm."

The environment of this park is indeed quite nice, with fresh air, pleasant scenery, and from time to time, one can smell bursts of fragrant flowers and hear a few chirps of birds.

The only drawback is that there are too few people.

Perhaps because the location is a bit remote, coupled with security issues, even during the day, not many people come here.

"Eh?"

Just as Su Quan was about to take them away from the park, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a figure dancing gracefully in the woods not far away.

One could tell by the figure that this was a woman!

A woman dancing in the woods of a remote, deserted park—should one say she is bold because of her skill, or just very silly and naive?

Diana and Wei Ni Li Ya also saw her, so Su Quan simply took them over.

The dancing woman looked to be in her early twenties, with a slender, tall figure and a well-proportioned body.

Although she was only wearing ordinary casual clothes, the iconic dance moves allowed Su Quan to recognize at a glance that she was dancing ballet, and she was dancing it very professionally.

It's just that—

The foundation of her facial features was still quite good, but her skin was too poor, dull and lusterless, slightly rough, and her face was covered in acne.

Although it is said that Americans consider freckles beautiful, freckles are freckles, and acne is acne; it doesn't mean that a face covered in spots will be considered beautiful.

Su Quan secretly sighed for her. If her skin were a little better and there were fewer pimples on her face, with her figure and this professional ballet posture, she could definitely be called a ballet goddess.

The dancing woman noticed someone approaching and hurriedly stopped, looking down at a loss like a child who had done something wrong.

"You dance very well."

Su Quan clapped gently, smiling in praise.

The dancing woman looked up somewhat reservedly at Diana and Wei Ni Li Ya, and a look of envy immediately appeared in her eyes.

Why did she look at Diana and Wei Ni Li Ya first when it was Su Quan who greeted her?

Because of inferiority, because of envy!

No matter the era, it is a world that looks at faces. With this face of hers, it is estimated that her life must be full of bullying and trouble everywhere.

Otherwise, with such professional ballet skills, she wouldn't have come to such a remote park to practice dancing. Did she really think that having a face full of acne would make her safe?

"Hi, my name is Diana." Diana could feel her discomfort and walked over with a smile to greet her.

The woman subconsciously wanted to retreat, as if she didn't want to be too close to her, but in the end, she held back: "I, my name is Helen."

"Wei Ni Li Ya." Wei Ni Li Ya also greeted her, but stayed by Su Quan's side and did not go over.

"The dance you just performed is very interesting; what is it?" Diana asked with interest.

"It's called ballet, a type of European classical dance. One of the most important characteristics of ballet is that it is performed on the tips of the toes, so it is also called toe dance. Unfortunately—I rarely have the opportunity to perform on stage."

Speaking of her profession, Helen quickly became confident, but as she spoke, she lowered her head in frustration again.

Diana asked in confusion: "Why? Is it because you don't dance well enough, or are others better than you?"

Helen said gloomily: "Because they are more beautiful, just like you! Sorry, I, I mean that beautiful people can always easily get more opportunities. Life, life is just so unfair."

Just as Diana's mouth moved to comfort her, Su Quan's voice rang out.

"This world has never had absolute fairness. If you want fairness, you must be strong. Instead of pinning your hopes on others to give you fairness, it is better to rely on yourself."

"Only by relying on yourself can you get the fairness you want."

Helen seemed to have really drunk this bowl of chicken soup from Su Quan; her originally bitter and suppressed emotions seemed to gradually become high and firm.

"You're right, this world has never had absolute fairness; only by relying on yourself can you get the fairness you want!"

"Thank you!"

Helen walked boldly to Su Quan and extended her hand: "Helen, Helen Alexandra."

"Su Quan."

Su Quan smiled and shook hands with her.

Immediately after, with a refreshed mental outlook, she came to Diana again.

Diana said with a smile: "Diana Prince."

Helen did not reach out, but stared fixedly at Diana: "I know."

Diana frowned in surprise. Helen was the first human she had met other than enemies. How could she know her full name?!

Helen's unusual answer made Diana and Wei Ni Li Ya somewhat vigilant.

"You know who I am?" Diana asked in a deep voice, frowning.

"Yes, I know. From the moment you appeared, I knew who you were."

"Diana Prince, Princess of Paradise Island, daughter of Zeus, daughter of Hippolyta, am I right?"

Helen's words made the atmosphere instantly tense.

Who could have thought that someone met by chance in a park would actually know Diana and even know Diana's identity?!

Diana frowned and assumed a fighting stance, ready for battle.

"Who are you!"

"Helen Alexandra, you can also call me Silver Swan!"

As the words fell, a surging power suddenly erupted from Helen's body.

"Boom!"

A blinding light shone, and within the light, Helen underwent a change.

Her originally brown long hair also turned golden, looking very elegant and soft. ===== CHAPTER 261 =====
