Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 295

“Just now, your colleague gave me a strange look.”

After a long silence, Sun Weiqi finally decided to follow his intuition and asked, “Did something happen?”

“Hmm? How should I explain this?!” Lin Mengting blinked. Although she believed that lovers shouldn’t share everything and should keep some privacy, given that Qin Mei, Qin Dong, Zheng Gang, and Xu Meili had all shown their oddities in front of Sun Weiqi, there was no need to hide some things anymore.

After all, who could guarantee that these overly confident reborn individuals wouldn’t harass Sun Weiqi with their baseless grievances?

Maybe at first, Sun Weiqi could firmly believe in her.

But if it happened repeatedly?

Who knew if the constant slander would eventually wear him down?

That would be a real loss!

Of course, the most important thing was that these issues weren’t her fault, so why should she bear the burden of others’ baseless animosity?

“To be honest, I don’t know how it all started.” Lin Mengting thought for a moment and decided to start from the beginning.

She explained the strange events involving Qin Mei, Qin Dong, Xu Meili, and Zheng Gang, emphasizing her views on these occurrences.

As expected, Sun Weiqi looked serious and solemn.

“These people are a bit odd.”

In a short time, many thoughts crossed Sun Weiqi’s mind.

However, being a principled person who always stated facts, he refrained from outright condemning these individuals without more evidence.

But that didn’t mean he wouldn’t worry or warn Lin Mengting.

“Stay away from them.”

“Actually, I’ve been avoiding them. But for some reason, they keep pestering me, as if they can’t eat or sleep unless they cause me trouble. Sometimes, I can’t help but think — did I accidentally dig up their ancestral graves or crush their bones in a previous life? Why else would they hate me so much when we barely know each other?”

Look at that sharp tongue, instantly drawing a lot of ire!

However, Sun Weiqi admired Lin Mengting’s keen insight while growing more suspicious of those people. He resolved to thoroughly investigate them.

He was determined to uncover the truth!

“Tingting, don’t worry. I’ll help you.”

“No need,” Lin Mengting shook her head firmly. “I can handle these things.”

“You’re a man with great responsibilities, focusing on important matters. You shouldn’t be distracted by trivial issues.”

Lin Mengting wasn’t an absolute “feminist” or “patriarchist,” but she agreed with the idea that “men handle external affairs, women handle internal affairs.”

In her view, every man should be ambitious and decisive, focusing most of his energy on his career. This way, after marriage, he would shoulder family responsibilities and become a dependable man.

Conversely, if a man focused on petty matters, his character would shift, turning him into a “rat in the gutter,” unable to fulfill his roles as a son, husband, or father.

“You must trust me. I can handle these things.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Sun Weiqi finally relented under Lin Mengting’s firm gaze.

“Alright. But if you ever need my help, you must tell me.”

Despite his words, Sun Weiqi decided to secretly monitor the situation, ensuring any issues unnoticed by Lin Mengting were dealt with in advance.

For Sun Weiqi, there was no distinction between “big and small matters.” As long as it was useful, it was important!

Years of various tasks had taught him to be resourceful.

Therefore, Lin Mengting’s concern about “heroism” was never an issue for Sun Weiqi.

“The day after tomorrow, I won’t be able to take you to work. Be careful crossing the street, follow the traffic lights, don’t jostle for the crosswalk, and don’t daydream while walking…”

If those familiar with Sun Weiqi’s usual demeanor saw this scene, they would be stunned!

They wouldn’t believe the chatty, nagging man before them was the usually silent and reserved Sun Weiqi.

Although Lin Mengting enjoyed Sun Weiqi’s concern, it didn’t mean she would let him off easily.

“You always lecture me, but you should take care of yourself too! Although people say ‘while young, strive for your future,’ I believe it should be within one’s limits, not at the cost of one’s life and health. Otherwise, no matter how great your achievements, if you lose your life, what’s the point?!”

As she spoke, Lin Mengting glared at Sun Weiqi, “I know you might think I’m being selfish! But you have to let me speak my mind! If you think I’m making sense, remember it; if not, let it go.”

She added, “Of course, everything I say makes sense. I’m not unreasonable.”
