Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 268

Before Lin Mengting could confront Sun Weiqi, he said confidently, “Mengting, don’t worry. The money I’ve earned over the years is enough for you to buy many houses.”

Women from prominent families often had special hobbies. Compared to those who loved fancy clothes and jewelry, his beloved just liked to buy houses, which seemed quite sophisticated and high-class.

Fancy clothes and jewelry needed to be updated often. Women who claimed to love these things and considered themselves trendsetters were often hypocritical, focused only on appearances. Those items were bought with money and needed to be replaced every season to maintain an air of superiority.

Outdated items either collected dust in storage or were discreetly sold to recover some money for new purchases. This difference, over time, amounted to a significant sum. Even the wealthiest men couldn’t withstand such spending.

But houses were different. They were immovable assets that increased in value over time. It showed his excellent judgment! How else could he have repeatedly encountered Lin Mengting and eventually become connected?

This was a blessing from heaven, to be cherished and protected from any harm, especially from those who inexplicably caused trouble yesterday…

Unaware of the many thoughts in Sun Weiqi’s mind, Lin Mengting smiled and said, “Weiqi, you spoke too late. Only a few less desirable units are left on this floor. Otherwise, we could have bought the entire floor. But there are some good ones on other floors. Let’s check them out tomorrow.”

This was one reason Lin Mengting loved and appreciated this era. A building had to be fully constructed before being sold, often taking two or three years to sell out. If it weren’t for this, she couldn’t have bought a second unit next to her first within three months.

Unlike ten years later, when buildings started selling as soon as the foundations were laid and a sales center was built. Buyers then had to wait two or three years for the keys and another few months to half a year for renovations.

“Okay,” Sun Weiqi nodded. “This time, the team approved a month-long leave for me.”

As he said this, he felt a bit regretful. If Lin Mengting were old enough, they could get married and go on a honeymoon during this leave.

“A month?” Lin Mengting said enviously. “I heard it’s hard to get leave in the military, but you seem to get it often. Your luck is enviable.”

Sun Weiqi, looking serious, said, “I haven’t taken leave in ten years.”

So, what’s there to envy? If anything, he should envy someone like Lin Mengting, whose job allowed great flexibility. She had holidays during festivals and more than a month of leave throughout the year.

Seeing his point, Lin Mengting glared at him and said, “You didn’t want to take leave. Don’t blame others.”

Then she changed the subject, “Since you have such a long leave, why don’t we travel together?”

Travel? It was said to be the best way to strengthen a relationship. Sun Weiqi’s eyes lit up with excitement, but he quickly controlled it.

“It’s not a holiday period. Will your company approve such a long leave?”

“I’ll give it a try,” Lin Mengting said with a smile, not revealing that she had many ways to get leave approved.

For a salesperson, working from the office or not didn’t make much difference, but being on leave and not working did. No one could guarantee that the person taking over her clients wouldn’t mess things up.

Even in a visible role, any slight negligence or laziness in client service could cause dissatisfaction, easily demoting her from a valued potential executive to an ordinary salesperson. This would be advantageous for Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan.

But in reality? Lin Mengting didn’t say a word, knowing her clients weren’t easy to offend or steal away. She hoped that after a month, Manager Ding, Qian Zhiyuan, Zheng Gang, and Xu Meili would continue to be as proud as ever.

“A month is enough to see most of the country,” Lin Mengting thought, keeping her plans to herself. She didn’t want to trouble Sun Weiqi with these matters or force him to use underhanded tactics.

She didn’t want to tarnish the high image of Sun Weiqi in her mind, especially not by her own doing.

“This time, let’s go to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Tibet. Then, we’ll visit Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Heilongjiang. Do you have any places you want to visit?”

See, this is classic spoiled behavior. She had already planned everything and only asked for his input afterward. What could Sun Weiqi do but nod and agree, following her plans?

As for her “bad ideas”? Sun Weiqi wouldn’t let them slide. He planned to deal with those troublemakers privately to ensure they wouldn’t disturb them again.

This is what they call “Husband leads, wife follows!”
