Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 208

 “My goodness, is that a Mercedes?”

“I never thought I’d see such an expensive car here. It proves that wealthy people are everywhere! But for us, living at the very bottom, we rarely see rich folks.”

“They must be from Harbor City or abroad. Even if someone here could afford such a car, they wouldn’t casually drive it around this place.”

What kind of place is M City?

Calling it a “third-tier city with a lagging economy” or “a hilly area with dirt roads everywhere” isn’t enough to describe it.

It’s obvious that in these times, anyone driving to this city would choose an SUV with a high chassis, capable of handling any terrain.

…

The noisy discussions reached Lin Mengting’s ears, making her look up instinctively.

What was that?!

Lin Mengting squinted, and when she saw the fashionable young couple approaching, her previously hazy thoughts became clear.

“Tingting, I never thought a winter hibernator like you would brave the cold to come to M City.”

The comment was just shy of directly calling Lin Mengting a cold-hearted snake, a beautiful but venomous woman.

“Fang Min, I didn’t expect to see you here.” Lin Mengting looked at the heavily made-up girl in front of her, despite the winter wind, she was still bare-legged, truly embodying the phrase “beauty at the cost of freezing.” Lin Mengting couldn’t help but remark, “What a small world.”

Now it made sense why Qian Xiaofang, a “friend” who hadn’t contacted her in years, suddenly called to invite her to a class reunion, and then stormed out after a brief argument, disappearing quickly.

How much did Fang Min pay Qian Xiaofang for this effort?

Fang Min, pretending not to catch the sarcasm, smiled and said, “It’s windy out here. Shall we sit in the café ahead? Oh, and let me introduce my boyfriend.”

Fang Min’s petite frame fit perfectly against the man’s broad chest. Their height difference and the sweet, intimate atmosphere between them made every observer think they were a perfect match. However, those who were jealous might silently add, “Showing off their love won’t last.”

But to Lin Mengting, who had a wealth of life experience, it was clear they were actually a sugar daddy and his mistress.

“His surname is Yu, and he’s the CEO of a large public company.”

As she spoke, Fang Min looked up adorably at Mr. Yu. “Does your company have a branch in S City? I have to tell you, our Tingting is the most courageous, ambitious, and capable person I’ve ever met! In less than a year working in S City, she’s already a key ‘elite talent’ trusted by the company’s top leaders! If you hire her, she might single-handedly support an entire branch’s operations in a few years!”

CEO of a large public company?

A guy who ogled women like a lecher?

Who exuded a hooligan vibe?

At best, he was a rich playboy.

…

Until today, Lin Mengting always thought she was good at fooling people and talking her way through situations. But the scene unfolding before her made her realize she was not at the level of being able to tell ten lies in ten sentences and still deceive people effortlessly.

“Fang Min wasn’t just the school beauty but also the academic star we all admired,” Lin Mengting said sincerely. “Mr. Yu, congratulations on winning her heart.”

Mr. Yu’s eyes showed interest, seemingly intrigued by Lin Mengting’s words. He seemed pleased to have such an academically accomplished and beautiful girlfriend, boosting his ego.

However, Fang Min, still leaning on Mr. Yu, lost her smile. She looked at Lin Mengting with a gaze that held hidden malice and envy.

In this life, no one understood “Mr. Yu” better than Fang Min!

The only reason his playful demeanor disappeared and his elite aura emerged was that he was interested in Lin Mengting, planning to use his power to win her over!!

This couldn’t happen!

After all the effort to bring Lin Mengting down, she couldn’t let it fail now!!

Lin Mengting smirked inwardly but showed no sign of it. “Let me know if you set a date, so I can share in your joy.”

Fang Min didn’t respond, her face showing a mixed emotion of joy and pride.

“Well, I won’t keep you.” Lin Mengting threw out a casual farewell and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Fang Min panicked and quickly called out, “Wait!”

Lin Mengting stopped, slightly tilting her head, looking at Fang Min with a questioning expression.

“Tingting, who knows when we’ll meet again after today!” Fang Min said, trying to sound regretful. “Let’s sit in the café for a while. Don’t worry, it won’t take long.”

Fang Min looked up at Mr. Yu, then at Lin Mengting, smiling, “If you’re worried about missing the last bus, we can drive you home.”

“I have plans tonight, maybe next time.” Lin Mengting smiled and rejected Fang Min’s “invitation” again, hailing a taxi to leave…
