As night fell, a quick doorbell rang, breaking the silence. It turned out to be a courier delivery. I wondered why the package was delivered at this time? In a daze, I didn't have time to think about it and let the sleepiness sweep over me.

The next morning, when the light first broke, I pushed open the door and, sure enough, a box of parcels lay quietly there. I looked around and carefully carried it back inside.

The words "Luminous Water" were clearly printed on the box, and in an instant, my thoughts drifted back to several months ago.

Since I was a child, I have been known as the "black girl" with a skin color as dark as coal. As time goes by, my former playmates have all changed, but I am still immersed in the world of black. No matter what method I use, I can't change this situation. In the workplace, the boss's teasing and colleagues' jokes follow me everywhere.

"Did you go digging coal again last night?"

" Sometimes I really wonder if you are mixed-race?"

I appeared to be smiling like a flower, but my heart was already in turmoil. I secretly swore that I would make them look at me with new eyes.

So, I frantically searched for whitening secrets on the Internet, and it seemed as if my eyes were flashing with the green light of desire in the darkness.

Suddenly, a host named Xiaobaibaibaitu came into my sight. She had fair skin and beautiful looks, holding a bottle of golden water in her hand.

"You always ask me why I am so fair, it's all thanks to this bottle of luminous water, haha, it really works!"

Just as I was immersed in her recommendation, the screen of my phone suddenly froze, and the number of people in the upper left corner dropped from hundreds of thousands to one.

" There is only one bottle in stock, a fan-only benefit, you can't buy it anywhere else!" Looking at her skin as white as Yang Guifei's, and as white as a fairy, I was so envious that my eyes sparkled. On impulse, I paid 10,000 yuan by facial recognition.

It wasn't until Alipay sent me a text message about the deduction that I woke up. I hurriedly looked for the webpage to get a refund, but it was nowhere to be found. I felt that I might have been scammed...

During those days, I was in a depressed mood and did not tell anyone about it, fearing that I would be laughed at even more. It was not until several months later that I gradually forgot about this "painful" experience.

Unexpectedly, today, it actually appeared in front of me...
