Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 222
Thinking about it, Lin Mengting realized very few people knew she couldn’t dance.
Among those who could quietly contact Qian Zhiyuan and set up this plan, there was only one person.
—Xu Meili.
The grudge between Lin Mengting and Xu Meili spanned two lifetimes. Strictly speaking, it was hard to explain and even harder to justify.
In Xu Meili’s memory, she had asked Lin Mengting for money to buy a house. Even though Lin Mengting had the money, she didn’t lend it and came up with a bunch of flimsy excuses.
At the same time, Lin Mengting had deliberately leaked the story of Xu Meili getting involved with a local man thirteen years her senior, who had a ten-year-old daughter, just to get a city residence. Lin Mengting had mocked and despised Xu Meili for being a homewrecker and a stepmother.
In Lin Mengting’s “past life” memory, Xu Meili constantly misled her, turning her into a follower who did whatever Xu Meili said.
Xu Meili frequently took her shopping at high-end malls, convincing her that women should enjoy luxurious lives. Lin Mengting spent all her money on herself, never saving a cent, becoming a pathetic spendthrift who was always in debt.
Xu Meili brainwashed her into thinking that a young, beautiful girl like her didn’t need to focus on studies or work. Instead, she should find a rich, handsome guy to marry and live a carefree, wealthy life.
Xu Meili spread rumors that Lin Mengting said, “I’d rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle,” making her seem vain and ambitious, desperate to marry into wealth.
Using their “sisterly” bond, Xu Meili borrowed all of Lin Mengting’s money under various excuses, like buying a house, a car, or starting a business. Xu Meili bought numerous properties and started a company.
When the property prices in S City skyrocketed, Xu Meili slowly paid Lin Mengting back, watching her spend every last bit of her money due to her lavish habits.
In the end, Xu Meili cut ties with her in a “cold treatment” way.
Luckily, after this, Lin Mengting “woke up.” She caught the tail end of the property boom, using all her savings and taking on huge debt to buy a small apartment.
Although burdened with debt and living frugally, she survived.
And in this life, she also got a “rebirth” opportunity.
Plus, she had a special ability to deal with people like Xu Meili—a mind-reading skill.
Heaven had indeed favored her!
In her previous life, she wasn’t good at dancing and hadn’t attended any dance or art classes.
But in her middle age, to stay fit and keep her mind occupied, she joined many art classes, including dance. This was the foundation for her current success in the painting world.
“Alright, I’ll give it a try tomorrow,” Lin Mengting said with a smile, deciding to perform a dance and painting show.
She remembered watching a scene from “My Fair Princess” where a character danced and painted at the same time. She had been very envious then.
Now, she had the chance to fulfill that childhood dream in front of everyone!
The irony of it felt quite satisfying!
…
In both her past and present lives, Lin Mengting always believed in “low profile in life, high profile in work.”
Because of this, she ignored the frequent provocations from Qin Dong, Qian Zhiyuan, Xu Meili, and Zheng Gang, all of whom were also reborn.
She wasn’t afraid of these reborn people plotting against her. She just didn’t want to waste her second chance at life on scheming against them.
But after Fang Min’s ruthless attempt to drag her down, she had a rare moment of reflection.
—Why were there so many malicious reborn people around her?
It wasn’t just because she was a tempting target.
It was also because her “indifference” and “distance” made these people see her as an easy target.
“Then, I need to…” find a reliable way to deal with these annoying “reborn people” once and for all!
In a short time, Lin Mengting had many plans.
The best one was to make these people fail miserably, so they couldn’t get up and plot against her again.
Sure, the “eye for an eye” plan was practical.
But their tactics were petty and unsophisticated.
If someone carried out such a plan, they’d feel the satisfaction of easy success without much effort.
Qin Dong, Qian Zhiyuan, Zheng Gang, and Xu Meili, these reborn people blessed by heaven, kept going astray because “success came too easily,” making them lose the drive to work hard!
