Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 249

What could hurt the feelings of all those promising guys, elite men, and second-generation rich kids more?

After all, Lin Mengting ignored them and chose to marry someone so ordinary. This completely disrespected them, trampling on their pride and dignity!

And to call the man in front of them “ordinary” was already a compliment.

He was only 5’2″, really short. His eyes were small and calculating. His face was dark, rough, and full of pimples. Just looking at him could make someone lose their lunch.

Even in a suit, he still looked hunched over and sleazy!

Thinking this, the woman smiled brightly and called out, “Lin Mengting, Lin Mengting, come out, your boyfriend is here to pick you up!”

Her coworkers, also curious about the commotion, started talking.

“Wasn’t Lin Mengting’s boyfriend supposed to be a soldier? Who’s this guy?”

“You don’t know? I heard Lin Mengting couldn’t handle the long-distance relationship and broke up with the soldier.”

“Even if she broke up with him, why would she choose this guy?”

“You women always judge by looks. Maybe he’s rich or powerful!”

“If he wasn’t capable, why would Lin Mengting be interested in him?”

Anyone else might have run away with such comments, but Zheng Gang, with his two lifetimes of experience, wasn’t fazed at all.

In fact, he thought these comments could help his plan.

With this in mind, Zheng Gang looked at everyone with a pleading expression. “Can someone check if Tingting is in the office?”

“Wow, Tingting? That’s so sweet!”

“That’s how couples talk! Don’t you and your boyfriend have sweet nicknames too? Like ‘honey,’ ‘darling,’ or ‘hubby’…”

“I’ll help you find her.”

As the conversations started to get off track, more people offered to help.

Whether by chance or not, Zheng Gang was escorted inside, right to Lin Mengting’s department, but he didn’t see her.

“She might be out for lunch and hasn’t come back yet,” said the woman who first spoke to Zheng Gang. She felt disappointed.

If he had come during work hours, Lin Mengting wouldn’t have been able to avoid him.

Yes, avoid.

In the past life, Lin Mengting was just a nobody at this time. But in this life, because of her abilities, youth, and looks, people had started paying attention to her.

Everyone knew Lin Mengting’s habits by now.

When they didn’t see her, they guessed she had heard about the visitor and slipped away.

“Lin Mengting is really something!”

The woman shook her head and sighed. “If she’s so close with her boyfriend, why would she leave without a word when he surprised her? That’s just trampling on his feelings!”

“You mean Tingting avoided me on purpose?” Zheng Gang looked heartbroken, like he was lost at sea without a lifeline. His despair and sadness were clear.

He dropped the bouquet.

The beautiful roses scattered on the ground.

His sad expression made everyone tense up.

“No!”

Zheng Gang cried out, “It can’t be true!”

“Tingting wouldn’t do this to me!!”

“We agreed on this…”

As people backed away from the seemingly crazy Zheng Gang, the woman raised an eyebrow, thinking he was the perfect “helper”!

Even if those who liked Lin Mengting recorded the scene to help her later, it wouldn’t matter.

A girl’s reputation, once stained, couldn’t be easily restored.

Of course, the key was that rumors spread quickly. Later, even with a little embellishment, this could really hurt Lin Mengting’s reputation!

“Maybe Lin Mengting is just shy and avoided the public display.”

Another woman, who also disliked Lin Mengting, joined in, “Yes, young girls are shy. They don’t like accepting flowers and confessions in public.”

“It’s a pity. I thought we’d see a dramatic proposal get rejected.”

This last comment came from Sun Lina, who was usually close to Lin Mengting.

By coincidence or by people’s attention, when she said this, everyone fell silent, making sure her comment was heard clearly by all.
