100 Days of Rebirth: The Loyal Dog of the Cold and Aloof Actress
Chapter 54 So coaxable
Cheng Yu was silent for a moment before saying, "No."
Tang Qian felt a little disappointed. "Is it because this is a trap?"
“Yes.” Cheng Yu didn’t say another word.
"Does Wanwan know that?"
"I don't know, don't tell her."
Tang Qian didn't intend to say anything, otherwise Wanwan would definitely be disappointed.
After hanging up the phone, she realized something.
Cheng Yu's attitude towards Wanwan didn't seem like the fake relationship they had made.
They seemed more like a real married couple.
I just don't know how Wanwan feels about him.
I'll have to ask him when I have time another day.
Just as Tang Qian finished thinking, her stomach started to hurt.
She frowned, threw off the covers, slipped on her slippers, and got out of bed to go to the bathroom.
I didn't eat much, so why do I have a stomachache?
Could it be that the young master made breakfast?
Tang Qian rolled her eyes, thinking to herself: Sure enough, I shouldn't have bothered to eat his cooking and trusted him so much!

Meng Tingwan slept until almost noon before waking up.
Even the slightest movement causes severe soreness, especially in a certain area.
She didn't rush to get up, but lay in bed for a while, recalling what happened last night.
I need to call Tang Qian and ask her.
But she really had no energy at all; even her hands were sore.
Just then, Cheng Yu pushed the door open and came in.
Upon entering the bedroom, I saw the person on the bed moving and quickly went over.
Meng Tingwan looked up and their eyes met.
Logically, the two, who had just argued last night, should be feeling awkward right now, but Meng Tingwan was completely oblivious to this.
Cheng Yu, of course, did not have one either.
He went over, picked her up, and pulled over a robe to drape over her without saying a word the whole time.
"Tang Qian called this morning. Call her back after you finish eating."
He only said this after he had tied the belt of his bathrobe.
Meng Tingwan remained motionless, letting him do as he pleased.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Cheng Yu was actually a little flustered, afraid that she would blame him for being too rough with her last night.
So he sat on the bed to look her in the eye and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, I lost control last night."
Meng Tingwan looked at him, her eyes completely unmoved.
Cheng Yu continued, "But I disagree with some of the things you mentioned, because I remember there was a clause in the agreement that if our relationship is not exposed within these five years, it cannot be terminated in advance."
So if you don't have work for the next few days, you can stay here. If you don't want to see me, I can move out.
After a long pause, Meng Tingwan finally spoke, "Are you going to put me under house arrest?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yu smiled, a bitter smile tinged with self-mockery.
“Listen to this, if I wanted to put you under house arrest, I would have started five years ago.”
“No need to explain, I’ll stay.” Meng Tingwan clearly didn’t want to continue the topic, and added, “I’m hungry, let’s eat.”
Cheng Yu lowered his eyes, hiding the stinging in them. "Shall I carry you downstairs, or you can eat here?"
Meng Tingwan stretched out her arms and wrapped them around his neck, her actions clearly selective.
Cheng Yu understood, picked her up from the bed, and walked down to the restaurant.
Throughout the journey, Meng Tingwan kept staring at his profile, feeling increasingly sad and guilty.
She doesn't deserve Cheng Yu's affection, much less his willingness to do this.
Perhaps I shouldn't have agreed to that agreement in the first place.
Inside the restaurant, the tables were already laden with a sumptuous lunch.
Cheng Yu placed the person in his arms on a chair, then picked up a soft cushion and placed it behind her back so she could lean against it.
Meng Tingwan was indeed hungry. After finding a comfortable position to sit down, she casually picked up the warm water next to her, took a few sips, and prepared to eat.
But when she picked up her chopsticks, she saw Cheng Yu sitting down to the side.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
Cheng Yu paused in pouring water and said, "I've already eaten."
have eaten?
Meng Tingwan didn't believe it.
There were five dishes on the table. Although the portions were small, there was no way she could finish them all by herself.
"I can't finish it, and it's not good to waste it. You can have some more."
Cheng Yu took a sip of water, glanced at the time, and said, "I have to go to a meeting. If you can't finish it, I'll eat it later."
"No way." Meng Tingwan's attitude was firm. "What's more important than eating? Can't we eat first and then have the meeting?"
Feng Zhuo said last night that he felt unwell after the argument that day, and only ate one meal in two days, and drank a lot of alcohol in the evening.
Judging from their appearance today, they definitely haven't eaten.
She was just afraid that she would dislike him, so she wanted to find an excuse to leave.
Meng Tingwan felt very uncomfortable.
I should have been more ruthless and indifferent.
But she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
The meeting was indeed an excuse Cheng Yu made up; he just didn't want her to see how troubled he was.
"it is good."
He agreed.
My wish is to have every meal with her.
Cheng Yu went over and served himself a bowl of rice, and the two sat facing each other.
At the dining table, the only sound was the clinking of bowls and chopsticks.
Meng Tingwan doesn't have a big appetite; even when she's hungry, she can't eat much.
Cheng Yu knew this, so he didn't serve her much.
"You stay here for the next few days. I'll pick up Diudiu and then take her back if I need to go to work."
"it is good."
During the entire meal, the two only exchanged these two sentences.
After finishing the meal, Cheng Yu put the dishes in the dishwasher in the kitchen, tidied up a bit, and then took out a chocolate cake and some fruit from the refrigerator.
Meng Tingwan rubbed her stomach to help her digest, and when she turned her head and saw the cake and fruit in his hand, her eyes lit up.
Cheng Yu noticed her expression and smiled slightly. "Let's eat in the living room."
He put the things on the small coffee table and turned to pick up Meng Tingwan.
But then I saw that she had already gotten off the chair, but her walking posture was a bit strange.
Cheng Yu couldn't help but smile again, his lips, which he had already suppressed.
Meng Tingwan was moving with difficulty when she heard laughter. She looked up and saw Cheng Yu standing there, looking like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
"Come and hug me."
She stopped moving, stood still, stretched out her arm to him, and spoke in a tone that was both accusatory and commanding, with a haughty expression on her face.
Cheng Yu's heart softened completely, and he forgot all about the argument they had last night.
He's easy to please.
He'll take the bait as long as Meng Tingwan gives him a little something.
So Cheng Yu walked up to her, picked her up, placed her on the blanket, arranged the cake and fruit in front of her, and then sat down on the sofa next to her and started working on his computer.
While eating her cake, Meng Tingwan didn't forget to pick up her phone and contact Tang Qian.
However, the trending topics on her phone only held her captive for five seconds.
"Is this trending topic for real?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yu told her what he had found out.
Meng Tingwan was absolutely furious.
This family is truly filthy!
To calm her down, Cheng Yu continued, "Xiang Shicheng went to divorce Duan Zhiwei early this morning, and the Tang family also intervened, so the Duan family won't last long."
The Tang family used to be a well-known underworld family in Yuezhou, but it was only during Tang Zongjing's generation that they began to go legit and do business openly.
But whether they've truly cleared their name or not, only those within the group know for sure.
However, Tang Zongjing's methods are not something that ordinary people can withstand.
The Duan family is completely finished this time.
