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

The next morning, Cheng Yu had to attend an overseas meeting at the last minute, so he got up at six o'clock and went to the living room outside for the meeting.

Meng Tingwan woke up after he got up.

I was in a daze for a while before I picked up my phone to check the time.

It's only six o'clock.

It was only just getting light outside.

Thinking about today's schedule, Meng Tingwan decided to sleep a little longer.

Moreover, although they didn't stay up too late last night, the intensity of their activity left them feeling sore all day.

So she put down her phone, pulled the covers up, and went back to sleep.

Cheng Yu's meeting lasted a long time. When Meng Tingwan got up at around 7:00, he was still in the living room with his computer.

The man, wearing an earphone, turned around when he heard the bedroom door open.

Meng Tingwan was wearing a bathrobe, and her hair was a little wet on her forehead, clearly indicating that she had just washed up.

She only applied skincare products to her face and didn't wear any makeup, but her skin was fair and radiant, without any unhealthy grayness, and had a sweet look of being nourished by love.

Cheng Yu smiled and waved to her, and Meng Tingwan walked over.

As soon as she walked up to the man, he pulled her into his arms and made her sit on his lap.

Meng Tingwan thought it was a video conference, so she quickly buried her face in the man's chest and muttered softly, "What are you doing?"

To her surprise, the man kissed her on the cheek and said, "I'll kiss you."

"Cheng Yu!" Meng Tingwan raised her hand and slapped him, the force being about the same as a stroking.

"I didn't turn on the video."

Knowing what she was worried about, Cheng Yu added another sentence.

Meng Tingwan then dared to raise her head and glance at the computer screen, which displayed a graph, confirming that the video was indeed not on.

"Then you didn't tell me earlier."

Hearing the accusation from the person in his arms, Cheng Yu felt a sense of triumphant pleasure, "If I told you, how could I let you lie in my arms again?"

Meng Tingwan: ...

This man is truly more and more cunning the more you get to know him.

And he's really secretly passionate!

Cheng Yu lowered his head and kissed her moist lips again, and surprisingly, he could taste a hint of sweetness.

When Meng Tingwan tried to stop him, he had already finished kissing her. Seeing a very faint pink mark on the corner of his mouth, she whispered in Cheng Yu's ear, which wasn't wearing headphones, "I put on lip balm, and you kissed it all off."

"Lip mask?" Cheng Yu didn't know much about cosmetics, but he knew a few of the ones Meng Tingwan often used. "Is it something you apply when your lips are dry?"

"Hmm...it has that effect too."

"My lips are dry, let me kiss you again."

As he spoke, he lowered his head to kiss him again.

Meng Tingwan quickly covered her mouth and used her other hand to press against his chest, her bright eyes showing great determination, "No."

Cheng Yu smiled helplessly, but still lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand. "Then apply it next time."

Meng Tingwan was truly defeated by him.

But she was very happy inside, and hugged his neck with both arms for a while.

I could also hear the man speaking to the people on the other side in English.

His voice was deep and low, completely lacking the gentleness he used when speaking to himself; instead, it was forceful, sharp, and even somewhat cold and hard.

However, Meng Tingwan noticed that Cheng Yu spoke English very well, so she leaned on his shoulder and listened for a while.

Although I don't know exactly what kind of meeting they are having, I can understand what he is saying.

After sitting for a while, Meng Tingwan realized she was a little hungry, so she whispered in Cheng Yu's ear, "What do you want to eat? I'll have someone bring breakfast up."

Cheng Yu had just finished fiddling with the computer screen when he heard her words. Without hesitation, he replied, "Anything is fine with me. Order whatever you want."

Meng Tingwan nodded, then turned her head and saw the dense English text on his computer screen. She asked again, "How much longer until you finish?"

Cheng Yu glanced at the time. "About half an hour."

"OK." Meng Tingwan said, getting off him and going into the bedroom to call the front desk, asking them to bring breakfast over in half an hour.

The hotel was very punctual; half an hour later, the waiter knocked on the door right on time.

Meng Tingwan went over to open the door, but didn't let the waiter in. Instead, she pushed the food cart over herself.

After setting out the breakfasts, the food cart was returned to the waiter.

Cheng Yu's side was also nearing completion. After confirming the specific funding for the next step, he hung up the phone.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Meng Tingwan was already eating.

"Sorry for taking a few minutes."

Cheng Yu walked over and touched her hair, then sat down next to her.

Meng Tingwan placed the freshly peeled eggs on his plate without any hesitation. "Well, that's why I ate them before you even got there."

"You peeled it for me?"

"uh-huh."

Cheng Yu raised an eyebrow in surprise, picked up the egg, and ate it.

While eating, she kept praising it, "Mmm~, it's delicious."

Meng Tingwan only ate the egg white and left the yolk aside. She was puzzled when she heard Cheng Yu give such a high evaluation to a boiled egg. "Is it delicious? I think it's the same as what I usually eat."

Cheng Yu used a fork to pick up the egg yolk that she didn't want to eat and put it in her mouth. "Listen to how it's peeled, of course it tastes good."

Meng Tingwan opened her mouth, but seeing the man's serious expression as he savored the food, she really didn't know what to say.

"Cheng Yu."

"I'm here."

"Could you tone it down a bit in the future?"

"You don't like it?"

The man's voice suddenly turned somber.

Meng Tingwan certainly couldn't say she didn't like him; it was just that the love he was showing her was too intense, and she was a little overwhelmed.

“I like it, but you say it so often, it puts a lot of pressure on me.”

Cheng Yu stopped eating, turned to look at her, and said, "Listen to me, I've said it before, I like you, so I'm willing to do anything and say I love you. But you don't need to say or do anything, just stay by my side."

It would be a lie for Meng Tingwan to say she wasn't moved, because ever since returning from Country Y, she could constantly feel Cheng Yu's care and love for her.

I hadn't paid attention before, which is why I overlooked some details.

She never questioned Cheng Yu's love for her.

But it was precisely this that made her feel conflicted and even suffocated.

Perhaps due to her illness, these days, while she enjoys the sweetness, she also experiences a different kind of emotion.

"Listen, listen."

Cheng Yu noticed that her eyes were staring at him intently, gradually losing focus, so he called her name a few times.

Meng Tingwan then came to her senses.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about what you said."

"What have you come up with?"

"I'm sure you really like me."

Cheng Yu smiled, his eyes overflowing with undisguised love. "Yes, and I really like it, I really like it."

Meng Tingwan simply couldn't look him in the eye, so she quickly turned her head away and tried to ease the tension by saying, "I know, let's eat."

Seeing her flustered movements, Cheng Yu's smile widened.

A short while later, An'an swiped her room card and came in.

As soon as I stepped outside the restaurant and saw the two people at the table, I thought I had gone to the wrong room.

She rubbed her eyes, puzzled, and asked, "Am I still half asleep? Why do I see President Cheng?"

Cheng Yu and Meng Tingwan heard someone talking and simultaneously peeked out.

Only when An'an saw the person's face clearly did she realize that she wasn't still half asleep or had gone to the wrong room; it was indeed President Cheng who had come.

"morning."

Cheng Yu greeted her.

Meng Tingwan waved back, "Have you had breakfast?"

An'an realized that her appearance was inappropriate and decided to come back later. "Um, sister, I just wanted to ask when you're leaving. Since President Cheng is here, I won't bother you any longer."

After speaking, she turned and walked quickly toward the door.

Hearing the door close, Meng Tingwan looked at Cheng Yu and said, "Mr. Cheng, you scared my assistant."

Cheng Yu: "Really?"

"Yes." Meng Tingwan nodded with a slightly serious expression.
