Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 279

The golden sunlight shone on Lin Mengting, casting a soft glow on her face. Her fair, jade-like skin was smooth, without a visible pore, making people want to reach out and pinch it to see if it was as tender as it appeared.

In the past, whenever her acquaintances saw this scene, they couldn’t help but feel envious of her good skin and complexion.

Now, seeing Lin Mengting’s usually strong and cold demeanor soften, and her entire being resembling a lovestruck young girl with a sweet, dreamy smile, everyone’s gaze shifted to Sun Weiqi, who was looking back at her.

What a handsome guy!

The next moment, everyone couldn’t help but marvel at this and became even more envious of Lin Mengting.

They couldn’t understand why a talented, beautiful, and capable girl like Lin Mengting managed to find such a promising guy so young, instead of ending up with someone unworthy.

Why did all the good luck in the world favor Lin Mengting?!

“I’ll come to pick you up for lunch,” Sun Weiqi said slowly. The word “home” coming from his mouth made people stop and feel moved, while also making them sigh in envy.

The heavens were really biased!

Why did they favor Lin Mengting so much? Couldn’t they spare a little luck for others too?!

…

Although she didn’t pay much attention to others’ gazes and comments, as someone who had lived two lifetimes with rich experience, Lin Mengting keenly sensed a few envious looks. She couldn’t help but squint her eyes and break into a big smile.

A proud and smug little kitten—that was Lin Mengting!

Or, one might say, spoiled by love!

…

Sun Weiqi stood in place, watching Lin Mengting’s figure until she was out of sight before he left.

Normally, at nine in the morning, the rush hour, no one would have the time or inclination to notice a couple reluctant to part even for work.

However, Lin Mengting was an exception, or rather, a special case.

Firstly, as mentioned before, Hongxing Company was a leading player in the logistics industry with a great platform and market prospects. Its benefits and welfare were the envy of its peers. So, when the company that only recruited graduates suddenly hired Lin Mengting, a vocational school graduate, she stood out like a sore thumb among a group of swans.

But in the fairy tale, the ugly duckling undergoes trials before transforming into a beautiful swan. For Lin Mengting, this transformation process wasn’t long.

In less than two years, she became the company’s top salesperson and a “reserve cadre” valued by the upper management.

Even so, this could have been overlooked.

After all, some people do have extraordinary luck at work.

But besides her busy job, Lin Mengting also managed to attend evening classes and, through her efforts and opportunities, became a member of the G Province Calligraphy and Painting Association, earning the title of a promising young calligrapher and painter!

Such a girl, with her almost miraculous growth, was a true marvel, deserving the phrase “center of attention.”

Many people secretly admired her, hoping to win her heart. Many married women pondered if they had any male relatives who could match her.

Even though Lin Mengting publicly announced she had a boyfriend and brought his photo to the office, many still didn’t believe it.

The coincidence of her admitting to having a boyfriend right when Zheng Gang, the “clingy one,” kept pestering her, even proposing at the company, made people skeptical.

There are rarely such coincidences in this world.

…

Therefore, today, the scene of Sun Weiqi attentively escorting Lin Mengting to work quickly spread throughout the company in no time.

…

That day, Lin Mengting was miserably treated like a “giant panda” for everyone to visit and tease.

“Lin Mengting, the guy who brought you to work this morning is your boyfriend, right? Where does he work? How old is he? What does he do? How long have you known each other?”

“Lin Mengting, I didn’t expect you really had a boyfriend!”

“Exactly, Lin Mengting, you’re still young. You should focus on your career and studies. Once you’re successful, then start a relationship aiming for marriage. That’s the right way—doing the right things at the right age, and not regretting it when you’re older! That’s too late!”

“Yes, Xiaolin, take my advice. You can date for three or five years, or even eight. But getting married should be later, much later, to enjoy a few more years of freedom…”

“You guys are talking nonsense! Don’t scare Xiao Lin! Xiao Lin, listen to me. The most important thing is to seize the opportunity. If your boyfriend is really good, get married soon, and have children a few years later. It’s about securing what’s yours!”

“Yes, exactly! Now, some girls talk about ‘true love’ and will try to snatch your boyfriend if they think he’s good, even if you’re about to get married. So, take action when you should, without hesitation! Or else, someone else will snatch your good thing!”

“Xiaolin, when will you invite us to the wedding and share some wedding candies?”
