The Malevolent Female Villain Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 38

Time passed quickly, and it was already the last day of September, the day before the National Day holiday.

Ye Jinmeng and Xu Wanwan didn't have class this morning, but Xu Wanwan still got up on time to go out for breakfast, and brought back some breakfast for Ye Jinmeng as well.

When Xu Wanwan came back to the dorm with rice porridge and meat buns, Ye Jinmeng was still fast asleep hugging her pink piggy.

"Jinmeng, I brought back breakfast for you, eat first before going back to sleep."

Xu Wanwan gently shook the meat bun under Ye Jinmeng's nose a few times. Ye Jinmeng, who was "dead to the world" just a moment ago, immediately opened her eyes.

Xu Wanwan was already used to this side of Ye Jinmeng. Calling her name didn't wake her up, but a little food temptation did the trick right away.

"Go wash up first, then come eat." Seeing that Ye Jinmeng was still groggy, Xu Wanwan urged her to go wash her face quickly.

"Don't let the food get cold and not taste as good."

"Okay." Ye Jinmeng obediently responded, stretched, and went to wash up.

Xu Wanwan shook her head, sat at the desk, and started studying English.

Ye Jinmeng, who came back from washing her face, was no longer surprised at how focused Xu Wanwan looked while studying.

Sigh, she really was a top student. She was either studying or on her way to study. She didn't appreciate good sleep, how unfathomable.

Ye Jinmeng sat on the bed, nibbling on a bun while reading her novel.

Recently she had become obsessed with a rebirth revenge novel, about a true daughter of a rich family who suffered cruelty and harm at the hands of a fake daughter doted on by all. After rebirth, she returned to get revenge, reveal the truth, and in the end attained both love and success.

This was much more satisfying than those stories about a rich boss falling for an ugly duckling she used to read.

But Ye Jinmeng also wondered, could someone really change their fate after rebirth? What if after rebirth their intelligence still didn't improve, and they knew danger was coming but their mind couldn't come up with a solution? What then?

Oh well, better not overthink it. After all it was just a novel, and the protagonist had a halo. What business was it of hers?

Hearing Ye Jinmeng sigh, Xu Wanwan couldn't help but turn to look at her. "Jinmeng, what's wrong? Why do you keep sighing?"

Ye Jinmeng realized she had disturbed Xu Wanwan and smiled apologetically.

"Sorry, Wanwan, for disturbing you. It's nothing really. I'm reading a novel and had some doubts, so I unconsciously sighed."

Curious what novel could make Ye Jinmeng doubtful, Xu Wanwan heard her explain: "The female lead of this novel is reborn. In her previous life she was killed by the villainess, and after rebirth she starts getting revenge on that vicious villainess."

"So I was just wondering, if someone is reborn, could they really come up with so many ways to resolve danger, and inflict all that harm back onto the villainess?"

Xu Wanwan nearly choked on her own saliva hearing this.

Could she come up with ways? She probably could...right...

Xu Wanwan felt a little guilty. She had reborn herself, and although she was filled with the passion for revenge, she didn't seem to have any actual plans...

After all, no matter her previous life or this one, she was still herself, an ordinary person. Her intelligence, emotional quotient, or so-called cunning did not increase because of her rebirth. All that increased was the hatred in her heart.

At the beginning right after her rebirth, although her "fighting spirit was high", the only plan she could come up with was to find a chance to get close to the Ye family, and gain their trust. She hadn't considered anything beyond that.

Especially now that everything was different from before, she would no longer make such plans.

Xu Wanwan's thoughts churned. After a while, she solemnly said: "It's possible. Some people may have had certain potentials triggered during their rebirth, helping them defy fate. Others may still be like their previous life, knowing what will happen but unable to change it."

Seeing how serious Xu Wanwan looked explaining this, Ye Jinmeng couldn't help but laugh. "Wanwan, I didn't expect you to explain so seriously, as if people really could be reborn!"

Ye Jinmeng sighed again. "After all, novels are just novels. The protagonist's halo is given by the author. No matter if she can defy fate or not, the author has the final say."

Xu Wanwan: ...You probably won't believe me if I tell you, but I really have reborn, oh no, maybe with a bit of transmigration mixed in.

Xu Wanwan smiled and gave Ye Jinmeng a "you know nothing" look, calmly saying: "You were the one who said parallel universes exist, so how can you be sure rebirth doesn't happen?"

Ye Jinmeng's hand holding the straw to sip porridge froze. She was right, it did seem plausible!

"Then I hope after I die, I can be fortunate enough to join the ranks of the reborn and transmigrated. I'm too curious!"

Seeing Ye Jinmeng's somewhat longing look, Xu Wanwan couldn't help but laugh. "Ahem, to tell you the truth, I am reborn."

Ye Jinmeng's eyes widened in disbelief. "Wanwan, are you kidding me!"

"How could I joke about this? I'm telling the truth. In my previous life you killed me, so I reborn to take revenge on you." Xu Wanwan said solemnly.

Ye Jinmeng's hand shook. "Wanwan, how could I possibly kill you, don't try to scare me!"
