Chapter 2: The Show Begins
At that time, she was still a wisp of spirit, listening to the suppressed cries of her parents in a parallel world, the angry yet powerless growls of her brother, and the helpless sighs of the doctor...
Unable to resist, he asked the system beside him, "Can you help me? Why?"
The system explained that it was an envoy sent by the Heavenly Dao. The operation of the three thousand worlds requires positive energy, but for some reason, the values of many small worlds have become distorted.
Evil deeds are glorified, villains steal good fortune and thrive, and positive energy is being swallowed up by negative energy.
Xu Ziqi is one of them. She is like the popular villainous female protagonist in novels nowadays, who has no moral compass but is burdened with a fortune that does not match her character.
"For some reason, these wicked women have incredible luck. Take Xu Ziqi for example. The head of the inspection team is an upright and honest person, but he was not there on the day you had your accident."
He took over a deputy position that was easily bribed.
This is why Ling Wei had no way to seek justice back then.
Furthermore, Ling Wei was neither the first nor the last person she harmed, and Xu Ziqi always emerged unscathed.
This time, her family quickly brought her back to Beijing for protection, and she will later be associated with the two brothers of the You family, a top wealthy family in Beijing, and enter the entertainment industry to be promoted as the 'nation's little sister'.
Ultimately, she gained countless fans by leveraging her family resources and a carefully crafted persona, eventually winning the Best Actress award and enjoying immense success.
The reason for choosing Ling Wei is that, coincidentally, she was one of the targets of the villainous girl's bullying every time.
You know you're guaranteed to catch a blade bare-handed, right?
The system, which claimed to be an envoy of Heaven, described her like this: "You are almost 100% bullied by a wicked woman."
Ling Wei, the spirit: "???"
She later learned that the spirit is of utmost importance to a person.
For some reason, she almost monopolized all the essence in her own world.
Only a few scraps were given to our parallel world counterparts.
This indirectly resulted in his parallel world self not only lacking luck, but also lacking the will to fight.
For example, the version of myself in this world who might jump off a building at the slightest provocation.
"Because the Heavenly Dao also governs the distribution of essence and spirit, this can be indirectly considered our oversight..."
The system was a little embarrassed. "So Heaven has summoned your essence and given you a chance to rewrite your destiny."
The only condition and mission is to ask you—
May those wicked women who steal the mandate of heaven and commit evil deeds receive their just deserts.
I understand. I will act on behalf of Heaven.
Thus, the essence and spirit merged. Although the memories of the previous world were sealed by the system, the powerful soul returned, and everything was just beginning.
………
The atmosphere at the dining table was warm and inviting.
Ling's mother kept serving food to Ling Wei, while Ling's father and Ling Yang chatted about everyday matters, deliberately avoiding any topics that might cause stress.
Ling Wei ate her meal quietly, occasionally joining in the conversation with sign language, her face always bearing a gentle smile.
It wasn't until she took out her phone, nudged Ling Yang next to her, and turned the screen towards him that she realized what was happening.
"Yu Hoshino concert?"
Ling Yang raised an eyebrow, her tone slightly disdainful, "That girl who sings ancient-style songs in a quacking tone? Is this what you young girls like?"
Ling Wei nodded, gesturing expectantly with her eyes: "Brother, come with me. Inside tickets are really hard to get."
When Ling Yang met his sister's bright eyes, his initial dislike vanished instantly. He scratched his head and said, "Alright, alright, I'll go with you. But it's a promise, don't complain about how loud I yell."
He tried to imitate a rock and roll scream, which amused Ling Wei so much that her eyes crinkled into a smile.
Ling's father immediately instructed, "Yangyang, take good care of your sister. There are many people around, so don't let her get lost! Weiwei, be careful, and call Dad immediately if anything happens..."
Her parents started nagging her again, just like every time she went out in the past, as if they wanted to list out all the precautions for her.
Even though she's already so old.
Ling Wei nodded with a smile, but sighed silently in her heart.
So how could I forget? How could I get over it?
Those hurts, those injustices that were forcibly buried, have long been etched into their bones and blood, becoming a part of them.
However, at that time, the Ling family was no more than an ant in front of the Xu family.
A head-on confrontation would only lead to the original ending revealed by the system: her parents' careers were ruined by being set up, her brother was determined to appeal on her behalf, but the video was released in the morning, and that evening, "coincidentally," a drunk driver hit him, leaving him in a vegetative state.
Even the doctor who kindly provided the injury assessment was ostracized by the hospital and assigned the most tiring shifts. Later, a medical dispute "coincidentally" resulted in her hand being slashed, rendering her unable to perform surgeries again.
Their families were destroyed, and everyone who had helped them was implicated.
The Xu family's attempt to cover up the truth gave her a chance to catch her breath.
So she stopped her father and brother, who were determined to fight to the death.
Therefore, she declined the doctor's offer to risk preserving the evidence.
So she used aphasia to mask all her emotions and accepted that humiliating "compensation".
She wrote on the paper: "Dad, Mom, and brother are very important."
I don't want anything to happen to you. I don't want anything, I just want you all to be safe and sound by my side.
I'm not afraid of them. As long as you're all safe and sound, I'm not afraid of anything.
This is not retreat, it is dormancy.
She spent eight years making herself and her family stronger.
Ling's father consolidated his local business and deeply rooted himself in the local community.
Lingyang became a police officer with the power to protect his family.
She climbed the academic ladder, gaining a voice for the future and... the capital to get closer to certain goals.
