Chapter 106: Chapter 106 Butterfly Effect
“Please, host, don’t be so shocked,” the system admonished. “Did you think three hundred yuan was easy to come by? Of course, there are conditions.”
“The host was able to be reborn because the obsession in the host’s heart was too deep, and the system detected the host’s heart of gratitude. That’s why the system chose the host to initiate this rebirth.”
Xu Ying looked at the progress bar of the three hundred yuan bonus, feeling somewhat depressed.
She could accept Lu Daya; after all, in her previous life, Lu Daya died to save her. She owed Lu Daya so much and was determined to go through with it this life.
But the remaining two, who the hell were they? She didn’t even know them, and helping these two was like asking her to spoil them with kindness.
Wait a second, Zhang Baogui—that wasn’t her uncle, was it? And who was this Tong Yingzi, and what did he have to do with her uncle?
...
“System, what’s going on here?”
“Because of the host’s rebirth, some people’s destinies have changed. These individuals are the people who indirectly helped you in your previous life and ultimately met with a tragic death. Since the host promised to avenge those who helped you, you must see it through to the end.”
Xu Ying’s face showed bewilderment, and her heart clenched. She didn’t even know these two people, how could they have died tragically because of her?
“How did this Tong Yingzi die in my previous life?” Xu Ying’s voice trembled; she didn’t know she had harmed so many people.
“In your previous life, your uncle married the daughter of the Zhou Family, and after divorcing her, he remarried Tong Yingzi. When your family encountered trouble, your uncle, worried about you and your mother, helped out once.
However, he suffered the revenge of Chen Yanran and Dong Wenzhong. Your uncle luckily escaped, but Tong Yingzi was mistaken for your uncle and burned to death in a house fire.
Because of your rebirth in this life, your uncle didn’t marry the Zhou Family’s daughter; his fate with Tong Yingzi has also become more distant.”
Xu Ying clenched her fists in anger, filled with hatred. Her eyes were bloodshot, wishing she could kill Dong Wenzhong and Chen Yanran right now.
They were so heartless; her kind uncle and aunt were innocent—they deserved to die.
Xu Ying wiped her tears, entered the space, and took out a set of warm clothes. The winter clothing now made people look bulky and wasn’t even warm.
She put on the warm clothes and thermal pants, paired them with a pair of jeans, and wore a brown coat on top. Then she stepped into her heeled ankle boots.
Her black and shiny hair cascaded in front of her shoulders, and she applied light makeup. The girl reflected in the mirror had rosy lips and a fair complexion, stunningly beautiful. She glanced at herself, satisfied, and walked out the door.
The little boots weren’t stiletto heels, so it wasn’t uncomfortable to ride her bicycle in them.
As she just left the house, Huo Chen’s face turned ashen while he watched her receding figure.
Xu Ying felt a bit embarrassed by the compliments and turned to say, “I’m going to see Sister Daya to hang out. You all carry on chatting.”
If it were in the past, these villagers would definitely have bad-mouthed Xu Ying for her getup.
But now, since Xu Ying had helped them find a way to make money, they looked at her as if she were a treasure, feeling more delighted the more they looked.
There was a time when these people unabashedly said Xu Ying was lazy and would never marry off, but now they had completely changed their tune.
Everyone started to praise Xu Ying for being hardworking and not only beautiful but also talented. They speculated about which lucky guy might end up with her.
That’s human nature for you: when you have no use to them yet live a better life, they would be jealous and badmouth you, throwing dirt on your name.
But if you can bring them advantages, they quickly change their attitudes and would almost become your slaves.
Xu Ying greeted each villager before she mentioned going to find Lu Daya to play.
She found Lu Daya and then took her outside to chat.
Mrs. Lu’s treatment of Lu Daya had undergone a complete turnaround.
Especially since Lu Daya received her first paycheck; Mrs. Lu practically wanted to worship her, making even Lu Daya’s older brother stand aside.
Seeing Xu Ying, Mrs. Lu’s smile was so wide it nearly reached the back of her ears: “You two go have fun. Just make sure to come back for lunch, Daya.”
Lu Daya acknowledged with a response and then took Xu Ying’s arm, walking away with her.
Lu Daya looked at Xu Ying in amazement, enviously saying, “How come you’re getting prettier and prettier? Your skin is so fair!”
Xu Ying was naturally fair-skinned, and she hadn’t even had the chance to take the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill yet; she was already fair, let alone after eating the pill.
The Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill was known for its ability to cleanse the impurities from one’s marrow. Xu Ying hadn’t dared to eat it before because she suffered terribly even during her last menstrual period.
It indicated her body was full of impurities. Although the pill was good for the body, the side effects were significant; the more toxins in the body, the more painful the cleansing process.
She was worried about the commotion it might cause, leading her family to become suspicious, so she hadn’t used it.
“It’s probably because I’ve never done fieldwork or gotten tanned that I’m so pale,” Xu Ying said with a smile. “In the future, when you teach inside all day, you’ll surely become fairer too.”
Lu Daya sighed, for what girl doesn’t cherish beauty: “I hope so.”
Xu Ying took Lu Daya to the woods: “Dong Wenzhong has something for me, asked me for a meet up. There are some issues I feel it’s time to settle with him.
Wait here for me. If anything happens to me, run and get help quickly.”
