Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 223

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of Hongxing Company’s annual meeting.

From the morning, most employees were excited about the event. They discussed which performances might win awards and gossiped about which leaders might attend. The atmosphere was lively.

Of course, the most anticipated part was the raffle!

First prize was $3000, second prize $2000, third prize $1000, and so on.

The grand prize, a gold zodiac figurine, was the most popular.

However, these things didn’t concern Lin Mengting much.

In both her past and present lives, she had terrible luck with raffles.

If there were only a few people who didn’t win, Lin Mengting would definitely be one of them. If most people got consolation prizes, she would be among them.

…

Soon, it was 7 PM.

Colleagues arrived at the venue in groups and approached Lin Mengting.

“Lin Mengting, are you ready?”

Lin Mengting smiled and said, “I’m okay, just a bit nervous.”

That was a bit of a lie.

After all, since her rebirth, Lin Mengting had participated in the “Walk into the People” events organized by the G Province Painting Association, spending seven days under the spotlight.

But it was necessary to show some modesty.

At this, her colleagues comforted and teased her.

“Don’t be nervous. We’ll be cheering for you from the front row!”

“Lin Mengting, you are our department’s star! Your performance will definitely outshine everyone else!”

Yes, her department’s performance had been so outstanding that their seats were right behind the leaders, giving them the best view!

Unlike her past life, when her department’s performance declined, and they were stuck in the corner at the annual meetings.

…

Soon, it was time for Lin Mengting to prepare.

She took off her coat, revealing a bright red dress underneath. “You guys better cheer for me!”

“No problem! We’ve even got a camera ready to record your beautiful dance.”

“Lin Mengting, do your best and make our department proud!” said Manager Ding, who had also come over, looking serious.

“Got it!” Lin Mengting responded seriously.

For someone else, this kind of pressure might cause mistakes.

But for Lin Mengting, who had lived two lives, this “pressure” was nothing.

…

At 930 PM, usually, many people would leave after winning small prizes.

But today, no one left early.

Why?

Because everyone was waiting for Lin Mengting’s special performance!

The news had spread widely after the HR girl received Lin Mengting’s “registration form.”

“Years ago, a TV show showcased the amazing talents of four girls. Today, our talented Lin Mengting will perform a similar act…”

What praise!

What high expectations!

Except for the keenly observant Lin Mengting, no one sensed anything off. Everyone believed her performance would be spectacular!

The applause nearly lifted the roof.

The stage lights dimmed.

A gentle guqin melody started, followed by pipa and flute.

The cheerful music felt like warm sunlight, like a gentle breeze, clearing away the dust from one’s heart. It made people want to linger in it.

Red dress, white skin, black hair, creating a striking contrast.

As Lin Mengting danced, her long hair and flowing dress moved with her, like a blooming red peony, giving a sense of elegance and grandeur, like fireworks in the night sky, dazzling and ever-changing.

Despite the simple stage setup and imperfect lighting, no one noticed. They were all captivated by the girl on stage.

She danced like a butterfly in a flower garden, like a bird in the sky, like a fish swimming from a stream to the sea…

Spinning, jumping, twirling…

Everyone was immersed in her dance. They agreed she was truly talented, not just in literature and painting but also in dance.

Even as non-experts, they were completely drawn in by her dance, which they saw as a true “soulful dance.”

Such a dance was not something to be casually glanced at while eating or chatting. It was mesmerizing.

Tonight’s best performance vote had to go to Lin Mengting!
