Chapter 535: Your Abilities Are Insufficient
Bai Renfeng had long known that her daughter would face a life-threatening ordeal at the age of seventeen. It would be an ordeal hard to survive.
Unless she could find someone with a similar fate to her daughter’s but with a greater destiny, and moreover, have her daughter take this person as her servant, making them promise to take care of her daughter.
Thus, when disaster struck, this person would unconsciously step forward to shield her daughter and bear the disaster that was meant for her daughter.
She found Wang Huilan, and indeed, Huilan’s fate was similar to her daughter’s. Her daughter had lost her father at a young age, while Huilan had lost her mother. She was never able to calculate in which ways her own destiny was better,
but no matter what, as long as it was better than her daughter’s, that was enough. After exchanging fates with her, her daughter could also lead a good life.
She had arranged everything perfectly. Upon entering the Wang Family, she became the master, and Huilan became her daughter’s servant. No matter how unreasonable her daughter was, as soon as Huilan disobeyed and her father scolded her, she would become obedient.
This time, Huilan wanted to find a job. Fearing her daughter’s fated ordeal was near, Bai convinced Wang Jinbu to let Huilan work, but only if she promised to look after Ah Mei.
So the two of them left together. Since Huilan promised to look after Ah Mei, Bai was not worried about her daughter.
Because Huilan’s promise was not an ordinary one, unwilling as she might be, when Ah Mei encountered trouble, Huilan would instinctively step in front of her, bearing the disaster meant for Ah Mei, even to the point of dying in her place.
As long as Huilan died for Mei, then Ah Mei could pick up Huilan’s destiny and carry on.
It was for this reason that she had not married Wang Jinbu. Because once married, their relationship would change, and she could no longer ask Huilan to exchange fates.
Now, hearing Mengyu expose her intentions, that she had come to the Wang Family for more than just finding servants,
she looked straight at Mengyu: "Who are you?"
But Mengyu did not answer her, instead speaking telepathically into her heart: "You searched for a servant and set your sights on the Wang father and daughter, but truly, you have chosen the wrong targets.
Wang Jinbu is one thing, but Wang Huilan is not someone your daughter can control. Your daughter’s death was due to her strong exterior but weak fate. She wanted to exchange her life for someone else’s, but it backfired on her own destiny."
Bai Renfeng’s expression turned ugly, but she stubbornly asked, "Who really are you?"
Mengyu remained silent: "Your collector."
Bai Renfeng’s face drastically changed, and she stared intently at Mengyu: "Nonsense."
Mengyu’s mouth curved into a smirk: "You don’t need to try hypnotizing me anymore. Your abilities are insufficient; you can’t hypnotize me.
If you weren’t planning to have Father Wang beat Huilan to death, I might have let you go. After all, you’ve been punished—your own daughter’s destiny was ruined by you.
But you should never have instigated Wang Jinbu to beat his own biological daughter to death. Don’t you know that goes against natural human ethics?"
Bai Renfeng’s face had long since lost all color; she was so unwilling.
She asked again, "What is your relationship with Huilan?"
She understood now—the exchange of fates for her daughter had failed, likely due to this person’s intervention.
All she wanted was for her daughter to survive—others shouldn’t interfere. If they couldn’t provide a reason, she wouldn’t care about giving up her own chance to be reborn. She would curse this woman with her soul.
