Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 269

Lin Mengting didn’t know that Sun Weiqi had already arranged for someone to quietly trouble Qin Mei, Qin Dong, Zheng Gang, and Xu Meili, the ones who had caused trouble for her. Smiling, she said, “Alright, it’s decided. I’ll write an email to ask for leave now!”

With that, she got up and walked towards the study. Sun Weiqi was left standing there, slowly lowering his arm that had wanted to hug her. He pretended to be sad, wiping away imaginary tears.

Of course, this was just an act. In reality, he was thrilled. Imagine, two whole weeks of close time together…

“Do you want to check out the place next door?” Lin Mengting asked happily after she finished sending the email and got a reply.

Sun Weiqi nodded and jumped up from the floor in one swift move.

While putting on her shoes, Lin Mengting said, “I thought about combining the two apartments, but then I realized it might feel too empty living alone in such a big place. So, I just redecorated the apartment next door for my parents to stay in when they visit.”

Just then, Sun Weiqi had a bad feeling. He worried she might kick him out of the house like an unwanted stray dog.

No, that won’t happen! Sun Weiqi silently shook his head. Tonight, he would find a way to stay over, even if he had to be shameless about it.

But reality was cruel. Lin Mengting pointed to the open door of the next apartment and said with a smile, “I’ve heard that empty houses can deteriorate quickly. So from now on, when you visit S City, you’ll stay here.”

“But…” Sun Weiqi was unhappy. Although they slept in separate rooms at her place, they were only a wall apart, allowing him to daydream. This was different, separated by multiple walls!

“Hmm?” Lin Mengting raised an eyebrow, full of threat.

Sun Weiqi had no choice but to accept it. He comforted himself with the thought that he could still enjoy their upcoming trip together.

…

The new apartment felt a bit empty since no one had lived there, but it was cozy and clearly prepared for family. There was a dining table as soon as you entered, an open kitchen on the left, and a bathroom on the right. The living room was next to the kitchen, and across from the living room was the bedroom. The bedroom was simply decorated but warm.

There were beautiful curtains by the large windows, and fluffy cushions on a big carpet in front of the curtains.

The setup was exactly like Lin Mengting’s apartment.

Though the new apartment looked similar to hers, Sun Weiqi, being a trained scout, noticed the small differences right away.

Lin Mengting told Sun Weiqi, “This place has collected some dust since no one has stayed here. We should clean it up together.”

“The room is very clean, you’ve taken good care of it. I can clean up myself,” Sun Weiqi didn’t want her to do any housework.

Usually, he wasn’t around, so she had to do it herself. But now that he was back, he couldn’t let her keep working hard.

As for the future, like after they get married? He would still do the housework!

“Can you manage?” Lin Mengting asked doubtfully. It wasn’t that she underestimated him, but Sun Weiqi didn’t seem like the type to clean houses.

“Don’t underestimate me!”

Feeling underestimated by his girlfriend, Sun Weiqi bent down and playfully bit Lin Mengting’s cheek, saying, “This is a small punishment.”

Feeling a slight pain, Lin Mengting widened her eyes, “Are you a dog?!”

“No!” Sun Weiqi shook his finger, “I’m a dragon, a big dragon.”

“More like a big dog!” Lin Mengting pouted, deciding not to help. She crossed her arms and watched him with a smile.

After a while, she was surprised to see that Sun Weiqi was quite good at housework.

The room was spotless!

“Take a break here. I’ll go to the market to buy some things and cook lunch for you.”

“I’ll go with you.” He put down the cloth he was holding.

The apartment wasn’t very dirty since Lin Mengting cleaned it regularly. The so-called dust was just from the air coming through open windows. A quick clean made it neat and tidy, making it a place where one could comfortably lounge around.

“No need. The market is close, and I’ll be back soon. If you feel bored, you can watch TV, read a book, or listen to music.”

When they were at the resort, some friends of Sun Weiqi told Lin Mengting why he was there. He had taken a serious mission and needed this long break to recover.

Before, he used to go to a beautiful rehab center for this, but now that he had a girlfriend, he didn’t want to stay alone.

Even though Sun Weiqi tried to hide it, his friends saw how much Lin Mengting meant to him. They asked her to take good care of him and avoid any arguments to help his recovery.

If he didn’t recover well, the higher-ups might reconsider his promotion.

In any era, having a supportive wife meant fewer troubles for the husband. Especially for someone like Sun Weiqi, whose every move was scrutinized.
