Chapter 4: Sabotage(2)

Tang Can pursed her lips. How was that even possible, or was she talking about a novel she read, the title possibly? "That's not possible." "Believe it or not, it's the truth. This is my second life." Tang Can shook her head. Tang Xue Mei looked so calm that Tang Can felt she wasn't lying. "But how's that possible!" "I don't know, all I know is that I died, and when I woke up, I'd been taken three years back. I was 24 when I died, blind, disfigured, married to a cheater, pregnant, my child taken away." Tang Ccan's eyes widened. It didn't seem like she was lying, but hearing what Tang XueMei words, it seemed like she had lived a hellish life before she died. "How's that possible, if you did die, who killed you? How are you able to come back to your own body?" Tang Xue Mei nodded. She didn't know how she got into her own body, but she knew who killed her; that memory would forever be etched in her mind. "It was Ju Jing." "I'm not surprised that scheming bit*ch you placed so much trust in her, we were worried.." "It was that trust that led to my downfall. She caused an accident that made me blind, had me live under her roof, and did all manner of things to me, and when she grew tired of me, she took my life." Tang Can shook her head. She hated that Ju Jing; she was a devil in human clothing. "Tang Can i only told you this because i'll need your help to keep this secret, like i said i've been dead before i know how you'll end up three years from now so if you dare backstab me or betray me, i'd end your life and i'll never be a suspect. The nice and soft-hearted Tang Xue Mei is dead. If you try to hurt me, I'll repay tenfold." An eye for an eye!. "..." Tang Can quickly raised her hand, shaking her head softly—"I won't, I won't tell anyone, you know me, I've always been on your side, you've helped me a lot, you gave this village girl a chance to receive education, I'd never betray you, Mei.." Tang Xue Mei nodded she knew, the Tang Can in her past life followed were ever she went, fact was that Ju Jing had taken care of Tang Can before coming for her, truth was that they both had died that day but only her got reborn, but in a way they both got a do-over and this time she would help Tang Can lead a good life. "You still have to attend class., What made you choose to become an ophthalmologist?" In her past life, Tang Canhads had taken care of her till she was captured by Ju Jing. After that, she never saw Tang Can until the day she died. "I don't know, I just like it, I've always wanted the blind to see, this is my way of trying to help them." Tang Xue Mei was deeply touched; she smiled and stood up. "Very well, I'll promise you one thing, no, two things, one, as long as you're loyal to me, I'll take care of you, and second, I'll make your life better than it was in my past life. You don't need to dedicate your life to me, I don't need it, you have your own life to live." Tang Can nodded and stood up. She looked at her phone; it was almost 9 am, and they needed Tang Xue Mei to be ready before 1 pm. "Do you want to marry that Du Xuan? He's not a good person either; he doesn't like you, he's only out for your family's wealth." "I know, and that's why sabotaging this engagement, it's going to be Ju Jing's engagement and not mine, I'll need your help, I can't do it alone. Tang Can nodded, he quickly urged Tang Xue Mei to take a shower, time waited for no man, they would have to run the clock. Aftershowering, Tang Xue Mei wore her underwear out because she was too lazy to wear a bathrobe and just sat down on the bed, showing off her slim, long legs. "That outfit is for Ju Jing. Get me another one, and I'll style my hair into a simple style." Saying style, she simply placed it into a low ponytail. "How about this, you have so many gowns you don't wear..." Dressed only in her underwear, Tang Xue Mei had no sense of shame and directly swayed into the closet to find something she liked. "Why don't you wear a bathrobe?" Huh? "Why, is there something wrong with my body?" Tang Xue Mei took a look at her hands and legs, searching for scars or anything disturbing. She kept searching till Tang Can cut her off. "No, no, oh, there's nothing wrong with your body. Don't you feel ashamed?" "For what? I'm not naked, why should I feel ashamed?" "What if someone works in..." "Didn't you lock the doors?" Tang Can's lips twitched; she would have to get used to Tang Xue Mei's newly found confidence and shamelessness. Tang Xue Mei brought out two dresses, and she raised them so Tang Can could see them. "What do you think, between this lily colored fishtail dress and this other gown?" "Go with the other gown, since it's Ju Jing's engagement party, you should look as plain as possible." Tang Xue Mei nodded. Ju Jing should appear right about now; she was the one bringing the makeup artist and stylist. Knock! "Xue Mei!, Mei, i'm here.." "Jing'er, I've been waiting for you. Tang can quickly open the door..
