Rebirth: Daily Face Slaps - Chapter 55

Business Director?!

Lin Mengting slightly lowered her gaze, hiding her thoughts.

As someone accustomed to “self-reflection three times a day,” Lin Mengting knew better than anyone her own personality—unafraid of pressure but hating trouble.

Although there’s a saying among salespeople—those who don’t want to start a company and become a boss aren’t good salespeople—Lin Mengting always felt that sales only brought her high commissions.

Simply put, it’s like “one big deal feeds you for half a year”!

So, working as a salesperson for five years was Lin Mengting’s first “five-year plan” related to her career.

In the life where Qian Zhiyuan hadn’t been reborn, just how desperate had she been to take on the role of a Business Director, working harder than a horse?!

So, what exactly happened in between?!

Although Lin Mengting was very curious, she had no plans to involve Qian Zhiyuan.

Especially since she had already suspected the source of Qian Zhiyuan’s “deep hatred” towards her, she planned to perfect the art of “playing dumb to catch the tiger.”

Not just because Qian Zhiyuan, a reborn with malicious intent, was like a venomous snake hiding in the dark, waiting to strike, but more because both reborn individuals, Qin Dong and Qian Zhiyuan, had experiences related to her, giving her a bad feeling.

—It seemed like fate was enjoying the show too much to let her off easily!

…

Days passed slowly, and with memories from her past life, Lin Mengting could attract new clients almost every few days, her performance skyrocketing. At the weekly Friday meetings, she constantly drew envious and jealous looks from her colleagues, frequently hearing praise with hidden barbs from Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan, one playing the bad cop and the other the good cop.

Of course, for Manager Ding, Lin Mengting’s success meant more glory for him in front of the higher-ups, so his praise and expectations were genuine and without ulterior motives.

However, sometimes even an experienced manager like Ding couldn’t help but fall into Qian Zhiyuan’s traps, leading others to speculate that Manager Ding also didn’t like Lin Mengting.

As a result, Lin Mengting occasionally faced office politics and scheming, but she easily navigated through them, often turning the tables on her opponents.

Eventually, people stopped underestimating this young girl who was only 18 years old. Whenever dealing with Lin Mengting, they reminded themselves to be cautious, lest they get outmaneuvered and suffer losses.

…

In her personal life, Lin Mengting got along better with Uncle Lin’s family and made a few like-minded friends through the Calligraphy Association and the Youth Palace.

As for her study sessions before exams?

With her excellent memory and understanding that studying was the only way to change her fate, Lin Mengting dedicated herself to learning!

If there was one flaw in her perfect life, it was that Qin Dong, who never liked studying, continued to attend classes at the Adult Education College, sitting right behind Lin Mengting and staring at her with deep affection throughout the lessons.

Unfortunately, his gaze had no effect on Lin Mengting.

She often secretly thought if Qin Dong could apply his persistence in taking shortcuts to other areas, like developing his career, he would surely achieve enviable success.

What a waste of a golden opportunity to be reborn!

Thinking about how she had been frequently schemed against by Qin Mei and Qin Dong in her past life yet still achieved enviable success, while Qin Dong, despite having memories of future decades, ended up worse off than her, Lin Mengting felt pity for the rebirth chance heaven had given him.

…

[Unexpectedly, despite all his efforts, Lin Mengting remained unmoved!]

[Indeed, someone who could rise above and build an enviable career from scratch, marry into a wealthy family, and become the object of envy and jealousy like Lin Mengting, is not to be underestimated!]

[Even though Lin Mengting is only eighteen now, she already shows a cold, ruthless decisiveness that many seasoned veterans lack.]

[For someone like her, to successfully latch onto her and use her connections to become someone important, just as my sister said, if the straightforward approach of ‘childhood sweetheart’ identity fails, another path must be found!]

…

“Tingting, I know my actions have caused you a lot of trouble recently.” After the morning class, Qin Dong took a few steps forward, approaching Lin Mengting with a sincere expression.

“Reflecting on my actions from the past few months, I feel guilty. I don’t know what came over me, or what clouded my judgment, making me do so many inexplicable things. Now I’ve ‘come to my senses’ and want to sincerely apologize to you! I don’t expect you to forgive me immediately, but I hope you’ll consider our long-time neighbor relationship and give me a chance to make amends.” No matter what, we are friends.”

Oh, he’s trying the “retreat to advance” strategy!

Lin Mengting paused her book-packing, her lowered eyes filled with cold sarcasm.

Even without a mind-reading ability, the old sayings “a dog can’t change its habit of eating excrement” and “a leopard can’t change its spots” told her this person wouldn’t change.

This so-called “repentance” and “deep regret” were just another scheme.

…

Unaware of Lin Mengting’s thoughts in such a short time and not knowing his plan had already been seen through, Qin Dong prepared to kneel and apologize to Lin Mengting in public. However, when he turned around, he was shocked to find the once-crowded classroom now empty!

Damn, why did everyone leave so quickly? Didn’t anyone have the curiosity to watch the show?!
