Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 122
Alright, thinking about it, she couldn’t really blame her parents.
Â
After all, at this age in her previous life, she was indeed a naive and innocent girl who didn’t understand the dangers of the world!
After venting her frustrations for a bit, Lin Mengting continued, “Before, when we were still maintaining the appearance of being neighbors and colleagues, I didn’t agree to lend them money. Now that we’ve completely fallen out, how could I possibly lend them money?”
Â
“But speaking of this, I’m quite puzzled.” Lin Mengting blinked, hiding the mockery in her eyes. “In the past, Uncle and Aunt Qin seemed like shrewd and sensible people. How did they end up raising such arrogant and reckless children? Even after we’ve severed ties, they shamelessly came to borrow money from me!” Lin Mengting pouted, expressing her amazement and disbelief at Qin Mei’s audacity. “Not only did I refuse to lend them money, but they also threatened me. Ha! At the time, I wondered why Qin Mei, who is truly a ‘drifter’ in S City with no one to rely on, would dare come to my company so boldly and challenge me. Now I think she must have become a mistress to that high official, giving her the confidence to ask for favors!”
Â
I knew it!
Â
At this moment, Yu Fengqing’s mind was filled with those four big red words.
Â
“Didn’t I tell you not to provoke people for no reason? Why don’t you ever listen?!”
Â
Yu Fengqing felt helpless. It was clear that Qin Mei became an old man’s mistress and Qin Dong gave up his successful career in S City to start over in the capital, all because of Lin Mengting!
“Right now, your mistakes are small, and your Uncle and Aunt can cover for you. But in the future, if you make a big mistake, neither your Uncle and Aunt nor our entire family could protect you. What will you do then?”
Â
“Mom, why do you always think I’m at fault?” Lin Mengting pouted, feeling wronged. “You have no idea how despicable Qin Dong is…”
Â
In both her past and present lives, Lin Mengting despised Qin Dong.
Â
In her past life, it was because of Qin Dong’s petty schemes and his cruel tactics to ruin her reputation when he couldn’t win her heart.
Â
In her present life, with her “mind-reading” ability and memories from both lives, she understood Qin Dong’s vile intentions even more deeply, making her despise him further.
Â
—With the advantage of knowing the future, he should have used his knowledge to achieve great things.
Â
Instead, Qin Dong wanted to take advantage of her, an innocent person, to find shortcuts!
Â
When he couldn’t take shortcuts, he wanted to destroy her!
Â
Such petty and disgraceful methods in a “reborn” person were a complete waste of such a great opportunity!
Â
How could anyone respect him?
Â
“Although ‘the eldest sister is like a mother’ isn’t a popular saying anymore, Qin Mei did watch over Qin Dong growing up. She knows him better than anyone. Yet, for her own selfish reasons, she repeatedly helped Qin Dong plot against me…”
Â
In her previous life, Lin Mengting had already avenged herself.
Â
So, even after gaining the “mind-reading” ability in this life, she didn’t plan to mix up past and present grievances or crush Qin Mei and Qin Dong completely.
Â
Unfortunately, her repeated concessions and politeness only made Qin Mei and Qin Dong more unscrupulous!
Â
Who could endure that?
Â
So, even someone as good-tempered and forgiving as Lin Mengting got angry!
Â
“Mengting!” Yu Fengqing could hardly believe it. If not for this phone call, would Lin Mengting have kept all this a secret forever, never letting them know a thing?
“Tell me, what else are you hiding from us?”
Â
“Uh—”
Â
Lin Mengting, who had been speaking animatedly, suddenly clammed up. Her eyes darted around, looking everywhere but at the phone, while her mind raced.
Â
Soon, Lin Mengting put on an especially sincere and earnest expression. “Mom, I thought you already knew about these things, so I didn’t tell you.”
Â
Look at how smoothly she shifted the blame!
Â
Unfortunately, Yu Fengqing, who had come to understand Lin Mengting’s true nature, wasn’t buying it anymore.
Â
“Really?”
Â
“Of course!” Lin Mengting had no time to think of anything else. She firmly said, “Mom, have I ever lied to you?”
Â
Yu Fengqing suddenly asked, “I remember you are a salesperson? And you quickly established yourself at the new company, becoming a ‘key talent’ they wanted to train?”
Â
“Yeah!” Lin Mengting felt a bit uneasy, sensing that something was wrong. Her usual confidence and flamboyance were subdued.
Â
Normally, she was “high-profile” to make Yu Fengqing proud and happy about her achievements.
Â
But before she could figure it out, Yu Fengqing hit her with a big one “I’ve heard that salespeople are good with words, and you can’t tell if they’re being truthful or not!”
Â
“Mom, you are my real mom!” Lin Mengting felt like crying. She wanted to fly back to M City and beat up whoever had the nerve to spread such rumors to her parents!
Â
“I might trick others, but I wouldn’t trick you!”
Â
This was absolutely true, more genuine than gold or diamonds!!
