100 Days of Rebirth: The Loyal Dog of the Cold and Aloof Actress
Chapter 56 Buying the Island
Meng Tingwan slept until 7 p.m.
In her daze, she felt something furry next to her arm.
Diudiu?
Meng Tingwan immediately opened her eyes and looked down.
A little yellow head was sleeping soundly against his arm.
She suddenly smiled, reached out and picked up Diudiu, and could still smell its sweet fragrance.
It looks like she's already taken a shower.
Whether it was hunger or a light sleep, Diudiu opened its eyes and stared at Meng Tingwan when she was held in her arms.
"Are you hungry? Let me take you to eat."
As Meng Tingwan spoke, she rolled over and got out of bed, feeling that her body was not as sore as it had been in the morning.
After putting on her bathrobe, she picked up Diudiu and walked towards the door.
The moment my hand touched the doorknob, the door was pushed open from the outside.
It was Cheng Yu.
"You're awake. The food is ready. Let's eat."
He spoke casually, as if the two were living their lives like a normal married couple.
Then he took Diudiu from Meng Tingwan's arms and held her himself.
Diudiu didn't reject him at all; on the contrary, she was happy to stay in his arms.
The two went downstairs together, and Sister Yan, who was in the kitchen, poked her head out and looked over, "Miss Meng."
Meng Tingwan was surprised to see her. "Sister Yan? What are you doing here?"
"Mr. Cheng asked me to come. He said you would be staying here for the next few days, so he asked me to come and take care of you."
Meng Tingwan turned to look at Cheng Yu.
Then I saw the man carrying Diudiu to a special area next to the living room to pour him dog food.
Only after watching it eat did I stand up and return to the living room.
Sister Yan has already started serving dinner.
Cheng Yu had overheard their conversation. After pulling out a chair for her, he said, "I've been quite busy these past few days, so Sister Yan came over to cook for you."
Meng Tingwan gave a faint "Oh".
Without saying anything more, the two began to eat.
If this were at the Lanshan Apartment, Sister Yan would have eaten with Meng Tingwan as well.
But it's clear that I don't need to use myself now.
However, she observed the atmosphere between the two from the side and found it all rather strange.
-
As Cheng Yu said, he was indeed very busy.
They leave very early every morning and don't come back until very late at night.
Meng Tingwan naturally didn't care what he was busy with. Every day, she either watched dramas, called Tang Qian, or played with Diudiu.
I left the calendar at my apartment in Arashiyama and didn't bring it with me.
She would record how much time was left in her phone's notes app every day.
During this time, I also stumbled upon another juicy piece of gossip about the Duan family.
"Wanwan, I really can't believe this can take a turn for the better. Do you think this is a novel?" Tang Qian had just finished accompanying Chen Musheng to an event in a neighboring city and was on her way back.
Meng Tingwan was sitting on the rooftop sunbathing. On the small table next to her were snacks prepared by Sister Yan, and Diudiu was sleeping comfortably at her feet.
"This only shows that Duan Xiangheng agreed to this marriage not only because your father put pressure on him, but also because the Duan family's motives were not pure."
“That’s right.” Tang Qian nodded affirmatively. “My parents only have me as their daughter, so this family business will all be mine. He’s not even the son of the Duan family yet. I guess you guessed right, the Duan family is after my family’s assets.”
"uh-huh."
Meng Tingwan forked a piece of pineapple and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour juice exploded in her mouth, making her squint her eyes with satisfaction.
Tang Qian became angrier and angrier as she thought about it, and she felt that she was absolutely right to divorce him!
If Duan Xiangheng were to feed her medicine one day, and she foolishly took it, wouldn't the Tang family change its surname after she died?
"Holy crap! I'm speechless. How could I have fallen for him?!"
Chen Musheng, who was listening nearby, spoke coolly with a hint of mockery, "It just means your judgment before wasn't very good."
"roll!"
Tang Qian was feeling very uncomfortable, and he was still making sarcastic remarks.
Chen Musheng pouted and fell silent.
Hearing this, Meng Tingwan sat up straight in her chair and said meaningfully, "Then you'd better keep your eyes open when you look at men in the future."
"Stop, I don't want to hear the word 'man' right now. It makes me uncomfortable." Tang Qian felt that she was a little allergic to men, and she even silently moved away from Chen Musheng next to her.
Chen Musheng was oblivious, engrossed in playing the game.
Orange saw it and was secretly laughing uproariously.
Tang Qian adjusted her posture and continued, "Actually, after the divorce, I didn't want to look for someone else. Maybe love really isn't for me. I'd rather focus on making money."
This three-year-long unrequited love consumed a lot of his energy.
In addition, with this incident involving the Duan family, she felt somewhat repulsed.
There's a saying that goes, "Being single is great for a while, but staying single forever is even better."
What's more, she's a wealthy single woman who doesn't have to worry about anything.
When I have a job, I work; when I don't have a job, I play.
It sounds wonderful.
Meng Tingwan was actually testing her, wanting to know what she planned to do in the future.
If I really leave, what will Tang Qian do then?
She may have many friends, but in the end, who will be there for her?
"Qianqian..."
Before Meng Tingwan could finish speaking, Tang Qian continued, "Besides, we still have you. I'll buy an island, and we can retire there when we're old. Maybe we'll even find the stars. You'll have children to inherit the Meng family, and we'll go there to live a carefree life like immortals."
This scene is truly heartwarming and beautiful.
Meng Tingwan was almost starting to believe it.
"What were you trying to say just now?" Tang Qian asked.
"It's nothing, I just think what you said is great, and I'm already looking forward to it." Meng Tingwan smiled as she looked at the mimosa tree.
Tang Qian knew she would like it, so she clapped her hands and said, "Never mind, I'll go back and see which islands are suitable for retirement, and buy them in advance so that others won't snatch them up later."
Before Meng Tingwan could say anything more, Tang Qian hurriedly hung up the phone.
She felt somewhat helpless as she listened to the busy signal.
If I told Tang Qian about this now, she'd probably explode on the spot and quit her job to search for a doctor all over the world.
Forget it, I'll talk about it after I see that person this time.
Meng Tingwan put down her phone, stretched, and prepared to go downstairs for a walk.
She had just come down from the top floor with Diudiu in her arms when Sister Yan walked up to her. Upon seeing her, Sister Yan quickened her pace and said, "Miss Meng."
"what happened?"
Seeing the anxious look on Sister Yan's face, Meng Tingwan thought something had happened.
"A girl came looking for Mr. Cheng."
"girl?"
"Yes, not very old, and he's a foreigner." Sister Yan's expression was complicated.
Since Mr. Cheng and Ms. Meng are husband and wife, why are they still flirting with foreign girls?
They even called each other very intimately.
Sister Yan suddenly realized that Cheng Yu wasn't a good man either.
Meng Tingwan was unfamiliar with Cheng Yu's social circle, and upon hearing this, she merely frowned slightly, "Where is he?"
Wang Jin herself had seen her; she was clearly not a foreigner. If Sister Yan could mistake her for a foreigner, she definitely wasn't her.
But those who know that Cheng Yu lives here might actually be close friends or family.
Thinking about this possibility, Meng Tingwan felt very uncomfortable.
She couldn't describe that feeling.
Sister Yan pointed downstairs, "At the door, I didn't let her in."
"I'll go take a look," Meng Tingwan said, and carried Diudiu downstairs.
"But with your status, what if she recognizes you?" Sister Yan was referring to her celebrity status.
Meng Tingwan smiled slightly, "It's alright, if they recognize me, they recognize me. Cheng Yu will take care of the rest."
Sister Yan nodded, and the two went downstairs together.
