Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 215

“Did you use the cream?” The male officer’s pupils shrank. He knew a girl like Fang Min, who was trapped in drug addiction and hated someone, could do something terrifying.

“No,” Lin Mengting shook her head. “My frostbite was already healed, so I didn’t use it.”

“Is the cream still at your home?” At this moment, even the male officer thought Lin Mengting was quite “lucky.”

Otherwise, how could she repeatedly avoid Fang Min’s “poisonous plans”?!

As for Lin Mengting knowing Fang Min’s plans in advance and easily avoiding them?

What a joke!

“Yes,” Lin Mengting nodded. Of course, she would keep such “evidence.”

…

The male officer asked a few more questions, then said seriously, “For now, there’s nothing more. If we need your help later, we’ll contact you. Keep your phone on and reachable. If you remember anything else, call us.”

…

“Tingting!”

As Lin Mengting left the interrogation room, lost in thoughts about how long Fang Min would be “taught a lesson” and how much peace she would enjoy, she heard a familiar voice.

“Dad, Mom, why are you here?”

Yu Fengqing, her mother, looked anxious, “You…”

“Shush!” Lin Yimin, her father, quickly coughed, reminding his usually sensible wife that some things should only be said in private.

Yu Fengqing pressed her lips together, swallowing her scolding words. She grabbed Lin Mengting’s arm, checking her closely. Seeing her daughter’s rosy face and calm demeanor, she finally relaxed.

“Tingting, don’t scare me like this again, okay?”

“Mom, how could I know this would happen?” Lin Mengting sighed. She hadn’t expected Fang Min to use such extreme measures against her.

Without her “mind-reading” ability, she would have fallen into a terrible trap!

Then, her loved ones would have been hurt the most, not just her.

Clearly, she couldn’t afford to ignore these “reborn enemies.” She needed to deal with them thoroughly to prevent any future trouble.

After greeting a few familiar comrades, Lin Yimin followed his wife and daughter outside.

Once home, behind closed doors, Yu Fengqing’s calm facade crumbled, and she started crying.

“Fang Min seemed like a nice girl! How could she do such a terrible thing? She wanted to harm our Tingting! Why? Our Tingting did nothing to her!”

Lin Yimin sighed, “I told you before, Fang Min’s eyes are too cunning. You insisted on telling her everything about Tingting. Now look at the trouble it brought!”

“Luckily, Tingting was lucky. If she had drunk those poisoned wines…”

The consequences were unimaginable!

Yu Fengqing shivered, her face turning even paler. “I thought it was just some harmless jealousy…”

Similar-aged, similarly attractive, and former classmates, it was natural for some “competition” to arise.

To Yu Fengqing, such “competition” or jealousy, when handled well, could motivate both sides to improve.

This should have been good for both Fang Min and Lin Mengting.

Who could have guessed her good intentions would nearly harm her daughter?!

“Mom, did Fang Min often ask you about me?”

This was the first time Lin Mengting heard about it, and combining it with events from both lifetimes, she quickly concluded.

—Fang Min was reborn after the high school entrance exams.

Otherwise, given her family’s background and the conservative 90s mindset in M City, a 17-year-old girl like Fang Min couldn’t have thought of becoming a rich man’s mistress to quickly amass a fortune.

Yu Fengqing lowered her eyes, feeling embarrassed, “Actually, since your first year in technical school, she often asked about you. I thought she was just concerned about you… Tingting, it’s all my fault. I almost harmed you…”

“Mom, it’s not your fault.” Lin Mengting suppressed a sigh and held her mother’s arm, comforting her. “Remember, during those winter and summer breaks, you told me Fang Min often asked about me? But since she never wrote or called, I didn’t take it seriously. Who could have guessed she hated me so much.”

Lin Mengting shook her head, speculating, “In school, she was the top student, loved by teachers and admired by classmates. After starting at the technical school, she saw many students who were better than her, and she felt unhappy. If someone had helped her adjust, she might not have suppressed her feelings.”

But in those days, even the most dedicated teachers couldn’t guide every student perfectly, let alone educate their children well.

Fang Min’s case was not unique.

Most young people entering society are clueless until they face hardships and adapt, finally finding their path.

During this period, they miss many opportunities and take countless wrong turns, enduring much suffering.

So, if someone gets a “rebirth” chance, they try to correct their mistakes and often seek “shortcuts.”

Fang Min did, and so did Lin Mengting.

But unlike Fang Min, who lost her moral compass, Lin Mengting knew what she truly wanted and refused to lose her integrity.
