Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 258

“So, there’s a pool like that? I must be really ignorant!”

Lin Mengting pretended to realize something, then praised, “Miss Xu, you really do know everything without even leaving your home!”

Xu Meili “…”

Why did that sound so weird?

Before Xu Meili could figure it out, Lin Mengting said, “I need to find my colleagues now. Goodbye.”

Of course, by “goodbye,” she meant “never see you again.”

Sadly, plans often don’t go as expected…

“Mengting!” Just as Lin Mengting was about to leave, Xu Meili grabbed her arm. “Don’t be in such a hurry! They say a chance meeting is better than an appointment. Since we’re here, why don’t we go upstairs to the café and catch up?”

Lin Mengting could feel the malice in Xu Meili’s cold fingers and laughed inwardly at Xu Meili’s pushy behavior. Xu Meili only had her “well-connected” boyfriend to rely on. She didn’t realize that her so-called “love” was more about using each other. A man like her boyfriend, who was used to women flattering him, would surely see through her.

“Trying to cooperate with a tiger” was an understatement for Xu Meili’s risky situation.

But what did that have to do with Lin Mengting?

“I’m with my colleagues. I can’t just leave them. Maybe next time,” Lin Mengting said. If Xu Meili were smart, she’d understand the hint and stop pushing.

But Xu Meili? Even if she understood, she wasn’t going to let Lin Mengting go easily.

Besides, she had already planned a trap for Lin Mengting in the upstairs café.

“Mengting, why are you pushing me away?” Xu Meili frowned and glanced at Lin Mengting’s phone. Then she slipped out of her boyfriend’s embrace and hooked her arm around Lin Mengting’s, dragging her towards the stairs.

“It’s just a cup of coffee. It won’t take long. You can call your colleagues and join them for the hot spring later! Or are you so busy that you can’t spare even a little time for me? Or are you afraid I’ll say something embarrassing in front of others?”

Using both soft and hard tactics, Xu Meili wanted to push Lin Mengting into her trap.

Lin Mengting’s smile faded, and she frowned. “Miss Xu, I really have something to do.”

Unfortunately, such excuses didn’t work on someone as determined as Xu Meili.

Even the man who had been watching suddenly signaled to the nearby staff. Seeing the waiters approaching, Lin Mengting felt a rare moment of panic, realizing Xu Meili’s malicious intentions.

If only she hadn’t lingered here for the view or argued with Xu Meili! Passersby might just think they were having a minor disagreement and wouldn’t help.

“What are you doing?”

Just then, a familiar voice made Lin Mengting stop struggling and look up.

Sure enough, it was her boyfriend, Sun Weiqi, whom she hadn’t seen in over two months!

“Ah Qi!”

Lin Mengting pouted, feeling a rare sense of grievance and sadness. The next moment, she found herself pulled into Sun Weiqi’s arms!

His speed was amazing!

Xu Meili stared dumbly at her hand, then at the couple now embracing each other, feeling a burning rage. Who dared to take Lin Mengting from her?

Wait, what was she thinking?

How dare he ruin her plans!

Unlike Xu Meili, who was fuming but scared of Sun Weiqi’s intense aura, her boyfriend Mr. Gao pushed up his glasses, trying to calm his suddenly tense body.

This man was not to be messed with!

“My girlfriend and Miss Xu are friends, so they were going upstairs for a coffee and chat,” Mr. Gao said smoothly, trying to make it sound like a friendly meeting.

“Friends? Coffee?” Sun Weiqi looked down at Lin Mengting and asked gently, “Mengting, is that true?”

Leaning against Sun Weiqi’s strong chest, surrounded by his unique masculine scent, Lin Mengting felt her fear melt away. She rolled her eyes.

“Do you think I have such poor taste?”

Taste?

Sun Weiqi instinctively held Lin Mengting tighter, not wanting anyone else to see her beauty.

Yes, beauty!

Today, Lin Mengting wore a light pink floral off-shoulder dress. When the wind blew, it revealed her fair and slender legs.

She was truly captivating without even realizing it!
