Reborn Diva: Prelude to Revenge
墨書 Inktalez
I hate, I hate the unfairness of fate.
Why did it allow me to be reborn into the body of a dying person afflicted with a terminal illness?
That's right, I have been reborn.
Back to my most tragic moment.
My name is Li Xue, a top singer who was destined for greatness.
Yet I was betrayed and killed by my best friend and the man I loved the most.
This melodramatic plot unfolded right before my eyes.
In my past life, I was naive and easily deceived by the scoundrel Song Weifang and my so-called friend Zhao Lin, who was nothing more than a green tea bitch.
They went to great lengths to obtain my wealth, even going so far as to drug me, causing me to lose my voice on stage.
Then they staged a car accident that led to my "untimely" death.
Ah, what a pair of wolves in sheep's clothing they were.
And I, like a fool, remained oblivious until the very last moment when the truth finally dawned on me.
Now, I have been reborn, back to the day they drugged me.
My voice has started to become hoarse, and my body is growing weaker.
I know that time is running out for me.
But I will not resign myself to fate.
I want revenge; I will make Song Weifang and Zhao Lin pay the price!
"Cough, cough..."
I began to cough violently, a metallic sweetness surging in my throat.
" Xue'er, what's wrong?"
A gentle voice called out, and my manager, Wang Yu, rushed in with a worried expression.
Wang Yu is the only person I trust in this industry.
He has always silently protected me and cared for me.
In my past life, I was so infatuated with Song Weifang that I completely overlooked Wang Yu's kindness towards me.
Until after my death did I learn from his diary that he had always loved me.
In this life, I will not let him down again.
"Wang Yu, I'm fine."
I forced a weak smile despite my discomfort.
"You still say you're fine? Your complexion looks terrible, and your voice is hoarse."
Wang Yu looked at me with concern, reaching out to touch my forehead.
"It's a bit hot; I'll take you to the hospital."
Without waiting for my response, he helped me up and started to walk out.
"No, I won't go to the hospital."
I grabbed his arm firmly, my tone resolute.
I knew that my illness couldn't be cured in a hospital.
Moreover, what I needed to do most right now was to seek revenge!
"But..."
Wang Yu wanted to persuade me further, but I interrupted him.
"Wang Yu, do you trust me?"
I looked directly into his eyes, my tone serious.
Wang Yu paused for a moment before nodding firmly.
"I do."
"Alright, then do me a favor."
I leaned close to his ear and whispered my plan...
My plan was simple: to turn the tables on them.
I would pretend to fall victim to the scheme of Song Weifang and Zhao Lin, allowing them to let their guard down.
Then, at the moment they felt most triumphant, I would strike them with a fatal blow.
"Are you sure you want to do this? It's too dangerous."
Wang Yu frowned, looking worried.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
I gave him a reassuring look.
"But your health..."
"It's fine, I can handle it."
I interrupted him, my tone firm.
I knew my time was running out.
I had to seize every moment to complete my revenge plan.
"Alright, since you've made your decision, I will definitely support you wholeheartedly."
Wang Yu sighed and ultimately agreed to my request.
"Thank you, Wang Yu."
I gratefully took his hand.
I knew that in this world, only Wang Yu truly cared for me.
I would never let him down.
In the following days, I followed the plan, pretending that my voice was getting worse and my mental state was deteriorating.
Song Weifang and Zhao Lin fell right into the trap.
They thought their plan had succeeded and began to act recklessly.
I even saw them secretly kissing in my hospital room.
It was truly disgusting!
I suppressed the anger within me and continued to play my role.
Finally, the day of the concert arrived.
Dressed in a magnificent performance outfit, I stood at the center of the stage.
The audience was packed, with fans waving glow sticks and shouting my name.
I took a deep breath, striving to control my trembling body.
I knew this was my last time standing on this stage.
I had to make this concert the stage for my revenge!
As the music began, I slowly opened my mouth to sing.
My voice was hoarse, yet filled with power.
I poured all my pain and anger into the melody.
The fans below were entranced, unaware of the bitterness woven into my song.
As the final note faded, thunderous applause erupted throughout the venue.
I stood at the center of the stage, basking in this last moment of glory.
I knew that Song Weifang and Zhao Lin were watching me from the audience.
They could never have imagined that I had one final trick up my sleeve.
I turned to the microphone, a strange smile spreading across my face.
"Next, I would like to present a new song."
"This song is specially written for certain individuals."
My gaze shot straight down to Song Weifang and Zhao Lin...
I slowly scanned the audience, deliberately glancing past the faces of Song Weifang and Zhao Lin, pretending not to notice them.
"This song is called 'Disguise.' It is dedicated to those clowns who hide behind masks, thinking they have succeeded."
As soon as the words left my lips, the audience erupted in a clamor.
My message was clear, yet it danced around the truth, leaving it ambiguous.
The spectators were unaware of the reality behind it all; they assumed I was merely voicing my discontent with certain figures in the entertainment industry.
The stage lights dimmed slightly, and I signaled the band to begin.
With the somber notes of the piano resonating, I slowly started to sing.
"Under the disguise, you treat poison as if it were candy,"
"Borrow my glory, and light up your badge."
My voice was deep and hoarse, as if each lyric carried a sting, driving the truth sharply into the ears of the two shameless individuals.
"Stop laughing; your tricks are so clumsy."
"Don't look back; be careful that the mirror reveals your true, ugly self!"
Song Weifang's expression instantly froze.
Zhao Lin grasped his arm tightly. I could clearly see her struggling to force a smile, yet unable to control the slight tremor at the corners of her lips.
The audience below clearly did not sense anything amiss; they waved their hands and shouted along, lost in the emotions of the song.
But I knew that every word, every note I sang was like a knife, a poisoned blade that would pierce the hearts of Song Weifang and Zhao Lin.
"Surely they won't suspect anything?" Zhao Lin's lips moved slightly. From my angle, I could see her nervously whispering to Song Weifang.
"Don't be nervous; she's just a half-dead person. What kind of storm can she stir up?" Song Weifang's voice was low, but the microphone on stage was sensitive enough for me to catch his chilling response.
"Good," I sneered inwardly.
Since you still have such confidence, then just endure it a little longer.
"Let us tear off our masks and see each other clearly."
As the music reached its climax, I suddenly turned around and pulled back the curtain behind the screen.
On the screen was tonight's grand finale.
I had arranged for Wang Yu to set up the projection, which played a carefully edited video.
Zhao Lin was seen drugging my drink, and the entire process was recorded clearly!
As the camera panned, it captured Song Weifang sneering as he spoke to Zhao Lin, "Move quickly; she can't be allowed to mess up tonight."
“Buzz—” The audience erupted in an uproar.
Before the spectators could regain their composure, the video played on, showing Zhao Lin tilting her head and playfully saying to Song Weifang, “Don’t worry, Xue'er trusts me so much that even if she dies, she wouldn’t suspect us.”
“Yeah, she’s such a naive little lamb!” Song Weifang laughed heartily, her delight evident in her animated expression.
On stage, I faced their incredulous gazes, picked up the microphone, and spoke down to them—
“Zhao Lin, Song Weifang, don’t you find this hilarious?”
Li Xue! You...
Zhao Lin pointed at me, her face pale and her lips trembling, but she couldn’t utter a single word.
Song Weifang pulled her behind him, forcing himself to sound calm as he spoke, "Li Xue, don't do anything reckless! This video is fake; someone is deliberately framing us!"
"Framing?" I scoffed, "Song Weifang, you really play your part well! If I hadn't experienced it myself, I might have actually been fooled by you!"
I pointed at the video on the screen, enunciating each word, "This video is high-definition; what more can you say to defend yourself?"
The crowd below erupted into chaos as fans began to murmur among themselves.
"Oh my God, this is terrifying! I can't believe they are such people!"
"It's true that you can know a person’s face but not their heart! I can’t believe I liked them so much!"
"Li Xue, you are so pitiful! To be betrayed by the person you trusted the most, how painful that must be!"
As I looked at the outraged fans below, a sense of satisfaction surged within me.
Song Weifang and Zhao Lin, today is your day of reckoning!
"Li Xue, don’t get too smug! Even if you expose us, you won’t live much longer!"
Zhao Lin suddenly screamed hysterically, pointing at my stomach like a madwoman. "The child in your belly is our retribution! Do you really think you can give birth to him? Dream on!"
My expression changed, and I instinctively covered my belly.
Damn it! I actually forgot about this!
In my previous life, Zhao Lin killed the child I was carrying just to fight for the family fortune.
And in this life, after being reborn, I found out that I was pregnant again!
This child is Wang Yu's.
I absolutely cannot let him be harmed again!
"Zhao Lin, you are truly a venomous woman!"
I glared at her through gritted teeth. "Do you think you can get away with it like in your past life? Let me tell you, this time, I will never let you off the hook!"
I suddenly lunged forward, grabbing Zhao Lin by the hair and delivering a sharp slap across her face.
"Smack—"
The crisp sound of the slap echoed throughout the venue.
Zhao Lin stumbled back, falling to the ground.
She covered her face, looking at me in disbelief.
"You... you dare to hit me?"
"Hit you?" I scoffed, "This is just the beginning. Today, you will pay the price!"
I raised my foot and aimed a fierce kick at Zhao Lin's stomach...
I didn't actually follow through. Just as my foot was about to make contact with Zhao Lin's abdomen, I stopped.
I am not a saint, nor have I suddenly had a change of heart.
I simply do not want to dirty my shoes.
Besides, I have more important matters to attend to.
From my elevated position, I looked down at Zhao Lin with a cold gaze.
“Zhao Lin, do you think I would stoop to such despicable acts like you?”
I let out a cold laugh. “I won’t dirty my hands; I will use the law to bring you to justice!”
I turned to the audience below and shouted, "Everyone, I have called the police! They will be here soon to bring this pair of scoundrels to justice!"
As soon as I finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted in the venue.
"Li Xue! We support you!"
"Bring them to justice!"
"Justice will prevail!"
I looked at the excited fans below, and my heart was filled with strength.
I know I did the right thing!
Not only do I seek revenge for myself, but I also want to bring justice for all those who have been harmed by them!
At that moment, a commotion erupted at the entrance of the venue.
Several police officers walked in and headed straight for Song Weifang and Zhao Lin.
“Song Weifang, Zhao Lin, you are suspected of intentional assault. Please come with us!”
The faces of Song Weifang and Zhao Lin instantly turned pale.
They still wanted to struggle, but the police forcibly took them away.
Watching their disheveled state, I felt a surge of satisfaction in my heart.
My revenge had finally begun!
I turned to the fans below and bowed deeply.
"Thank you all, thank you for your support!"
My voice was slightly choked, but I held back my tears.
I know I cannot fall.
I have more important things to do.
I want to restart my singing career; I want my voice to resonate throughout the world!
I want everyone to know that I, Li Xue, am back!
After the concert, I returned to the hospital.
Wang Yu had been waiting for me in the ward.
He came up to me as soon as he saw me return.
" Xue'er, are you alright?"
He looked at me with a face full of concern.
"I'm fine."
I gave him a reassuring smile.
"That's good to hear."
Wang Yu let out a sigh of relief and then held me tightly.
“ Xue'er, you did great! I’m proud of you!”
I leaned into his embrace, feeling the warmth surrounding me.
