100 Days of Rebirth: The Loyal Dog of the Cold and Aloof Actress

At the very beginning of this road is the newly completed Shihong Bridge.

Meng Tingwan parked the car there, unbuckled her seatbelt, and got out.

Huo Lin'an's nerve-wracking journey finally calmed down.

He followed her downstairs, walked to Meng Tingwan's side, and they looked at the distant, dimly lit city with her.

The autumn evening wind was cold, and with the intermittent rain these past few days, the wind tonight felt quite biting on one's face.

The two stood there for a while, neither of them speaking.

A few minutes later, Meng Tingwan asked, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

Huo Lin'an turned to look at her, "It's in the car, I'll go get it."

He had already said in the car that what appears in front of the public is a persona, so he wasn't surprised that Meng Tingwan smoked.

Huo Lin'an was quick; he grabbed a pack of cigarettes, opened it, and handed one to her.

After Meng Tingwan took it, she took out a lighter from her bag and lit it.

She didn't inhale; she just pinched it with her fingers.

The scarlet cigarette butt emitted wisps of smoke, which were then dispersed into the air by the wind.

A faint minty scent filled the air between the two.

“Miss Meng, although I don’t know what happened between you, Chairman Meng and his wife, I still want to say that they are, after all, your biological parents, so sometimes we should admit our mistakes.”

"Of course, these are just my humble opinions, and you are free to choose not to adopt them."

“Yes,” Meng Tingwan replied, “That is indeed my humble opinion.”

Huo Lin'an got used to her way of speaking after a night and didn't mind.

"Let's change the subject. After our interactions along the way, what do you think of me?"

Meng Tingwan looked up at him, stared at his face for a few seconds, and said quietly, "Are you sure you want to humiliate yourself?"

Ok.

Huo Lin'an became completely obedient.

There's no way to have any expectations of her mouth.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Meng Tingwan burst out laughing.

"Even though you're not that great, it's fine this way."

If you're looking for a marriage partner, that would be a really good choice.

Huo Lin'an gave a wry smile, "Miss Meng really knows how to compliment people."

"Thank you."

After they finished speaking, they both laughed at the same time.

As she was laughing, Meng Tingwan suddenly felt something flowing out of her nose.

When Huo Lin'an saw that she had a nosebleed, he quickly wiped it for her with his hand.

The man gently lifted her face with his warm palm, his fingertips lightly touching her nose, and slowly wiping away the blood with his thumb. "Do you have any tissues?"

Meng Tingwan was taken aback by his action and stiffened slightly. "It's in the bag."

Huo Lin'an lifted her face up, his tone forceful, "Don't move."

Immediately afterwards, he opened her bag with one hand, took out a tissue, and pressed one under his nose.

Meng Tingwan had already thrown away her cigarette and taken two steps back.

Huo Lin'an watched her movements, his hand holding the tissue frozen in mid-air.

"Thank you, I can do it myself."

Meng Tingwan covered her nose with a piece of paper and kept her distance from him.

Huo Lin'an smiled and withdrew his hand. "The weather is dry, take care of yourself, and don't work too hard."

After he finished speaking, he added, "If you don't want to hear it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"pretty good."

This was the first time tonight that Meng Tingwan affirmed his words.

Huo Lin'an was somewhat flattered. "Miss Meng, thank you for letting me see the real you today."

"So what do you want to say?"

"I want to say, I like you." Huo Lin'an gazed sincerely into her eyes. "Could you give me a chance to pursue you?"

Meng Tingwan could tell he wasn't joking, but she...

As she hesitated, a car drove up from a distance, its headlights illuminating the spot where the two were standing.

Cen Yi picked her up at the agreed time, but after parking the car, he stood still without going forward.

Meng Tingwan took out her phone and showed him a QR code. "Let's add each other on WeChat. I'll think about what you just said."

Without a word, Huo Lin'an scanned the QR code to add him as a friend. "When will you give me an answer?"

The man's face showed a mixture of anticipation and eagerness.

Meng Tingwan accepted his friend request, then put her phone back in her bag and smiled mysteriously, "I'll send you a message next time."

Next time you send a message.

Huo Lin'an was deep in thought.

When he looked up again, Meng Tingwan was already far away. He shouted loudly, "Then I'll wait for you, I'll keep waiting."

After watching the car drive away, Huo Lin'an looked down at the friend request he had just accepted.

He looked at the profile picture and slowly curled the corners of his lips, his eyes filled with an inscrutable emotion.

Cen Yi drove steadily and saw in the rearview mirror that she was covering her nose and mouth with a piece of paper. He asked with some concern, "Miss Meng, what's wrong?"

Meng Tingwan was in a daze when she heard his words. She took the paper off and found that the bleeding had stopped. "It's too dry. I'm a little feverish."

Seeing her pale face and thinking about what had happened that evening, Cen Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Miss Meng, you should have let me accompany you tonight. What if Madam finds out..."

Before he could finish speaking, Meng Tingwan quickly interrupted him, "Cen Yi, don't tell Auntie."

Cen Yi shut up, looked at her, and finally nodded.

Meng Tingwan clutched the paper in her hand, saw the bloodstains on it, and felt a turmoil in her heart.

Why did I suddenly have a nosebleed?

I haven't eaten much these past few days.

Could it be related to rebirth?

Meng Tingwan clenched the paper, telling herself not to overthink things; it wasn't the last minute yet.

She was probably just too tired and hadn't rested well.

-

The next morning, more than a dozen trending topics topped the list.

What surprised everyone was that the person trending on social media this time was neither Meng Tingwan nor Wan Yumeng.

It was Wang Jin, the eldest daughter of the Wang family, who had just returned to China.

She and Feng Qi starred in the new drama invested in by the Wang family.

Although Wang Jin is not famous, Feng Qi is.

He just finished filming his new movie a few days ago, and today he officially announced his new drama, which made his fans spend a lot of money on their idol again.

Meng Tingwan only learned of this news after finishing work in the morning.

But the content has changed again.

Breaking News! Feng Qi Commits Suicide

Breaking news! Feng Qi suffers from depression.

Breaking news! Feng Qi committed suicide by cutting his wrists in his bathtub at noon today.

For a time, there were different opinions.

Discussions across the internet have surged.

After all, no one expected that the popular celebrity who had just announced his new drama in the morning would commit suicide at home at noon.

They haven't even finished recording the variety show yet.

Meng Tingwan was also shocked when she saw the message.

Is the person behind this so eager to kill everyone to silence them?

If Feng Qi dies, who will be the next to deal with me?

She frowned and kept biting her lower lip.

At that moment, a message popped up on the phone screen.

Meng Tingwan glanced at the contents, told An'an, and then took her phone and got out of the RV.
