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

Chapter 135 The Final Value

The moment Ye Mengtong saw Cheng Yan, her heart tightened, and she was somewhat at a loss.

The person his mentor sent him to save in Yuezhou turned out to be him.

Cheng Yu stood beside her, and seeing her hesitate, he suddenly had a bad feeling. "Miss Ye, is my brother's illness very serious?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Mengtong licked her lips, composed herself, and said to Cheng Yu, "He has been sick longer than that person. I need to examine him first before proceeding with the next treatment."

“Okay, no problem. You can move people around here as you like. There are equipment in the next room. See if you need anything else, I can provide it to you.”

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Cheng."

Cheng Yu looked at Cheng Yan's lips, which were even paler due to the fever, and felt a pang of heartache. "It's no trouble at all, so please, Miss Ye, make sure you heal my brother."

Ye Mengtong nodded, her expression extremely serious. "I will do my best."

Subsequently, Cheng Yu had Feng Zhuo arrange for several more people to assist Ye Mengtong here.

Because he has more important things to do.

In the car, Cheng Yu opened his chat with Meng Tingwan and sent her a message.

There was no immediate reply, so Cheng Yu assumed she was busy and didn't call. Instead, he dialed Fang Jia's number to ask about the progress.

Fang Jia explained her plans to him, and also mentioned that Lu Ke had come to the company to ask her to terminate her contract with Meng Tingwan.

Cheng Yu understood the general idea and told her to do as she was told, and he would handle the rest.

After he hung up the phone, Feng Zhuo turned to him and said, "Boss, Chairman Meng has gone to the company."

"Arrived already?"

"Yes, the secretary said he arrived about ten minutes ago and said he was looking for you." After saying that, Feng Zhuo suddenly thought of recent events, "He's not here to interrogate you about your marriage, is he?"

Cheng Yu didn't speak, but he had a general idea in mind.

In the lounge, Meng Yunting sat on the sofa, with Secretary Liang standing behind him.

He picked up the cup, brought it to his lips, and took a small sip.

Then, Feng Zhuo pushed open the door to the lounge.

When Cheng Yu entered, he saw him leisurely drinking tea, looking completely at ease, not at all like someone who had come to interrogate him.

"Chairman Meng, I apologize for being late. Something came up unexpectedly."

Meng Yunting put down his cup and looked at him with a kind expression. "It's alright. I know you just got back this morning and had a lot of things to deal with. I'm just here uninvited, I hope it won't take up too much of your time."

This statement, seemingly asking for his opinion, was actually a way of saying that he wouldn't leave even if it delayed him.

Cheng Yu curled his lips slightly and sat down on the single sofa next to him. "No, is there something you need today?"

Meng Yunting was unsure about the nature of their relationship due to his attitude, so he tentatively asked, "Xiao Yu, may I call you that?"

"of course can."

"Okay." Meng Yunting smiled. "Xiao Yu, I only found out from the news online these past two days that you and Xiao Wan have actually been married for five years. Although it was a marriage of convenience, Xiao Wan is still my only daughter. I've roughly read the agreement between you and her. I just want to know, why did you two sign such an agreement in the first place?"

Cheng Yu sneered inwardly after hearing what he said.

He truly lives up to his reputation as an old fox; he's even more cunning than his second uncle.

“Chairman Meng, I think you should ask your daughter about this matter first.”

Upon hearing this, Meng Yunting feigned surprise and asked, "Xiao Yu, is it true that your relationship with Xiao Wan is just like what's said online, that it's only because of that agreement, and there's no real affection between you two?"

Cheng Yu did not answer him directly, "I just got back from a business trip, so I'm not too clear about what's being said about us online, but we did get married because of that agreement."

“Xiaoyu, I am Xiaowan’s father. She is my daughter. I can’t bear to see her suffer or be wronged. If the relationship between you two is really just because of the agreement, then get a divorce as soon as possible according to the agreement.”

Meng Yunting's words were rather harsh, and his expression was also very bad. He looked like he was very worried about his daughter and was really angry.

Cheng Yu had no idea what he was really up to.

If I hadn't always known that the Meng family didn't treat Tingting well, and hadn't just heard about Lu Ke from Fang Jia, I might have actually believed his act.

“Chairman Meng, how Xiaowan and I handle things is our business. She’s not in Yuezhou right now, so even if we’re going to get a divorce, we’ll have to wait for her to come back.” Cheng Yu said calmly, without paying any attention to Meng Yunting’s words.

"What kind of attitude is this?" Meng Yunting suddenly raised his voice. "This agreement is obviously something you made my daughter sign. Since you have no feelings for each other, then get a divorce quickly, and I will naturally find her a suitable person."

"I don't care what your reasons were for signing the contract in the first place, but it's obvious that you don't love her at all. If you loved her, why would she have developed a mental illness?"

Meng Yunting became more and more agitated as he spoke, embodying the image of a good father. "She has been living alone outside for so many years, refusing to rely on her family, and even hiding her illness. If you cared about her, how could things have turned out like this?"

"She's my only daughter, and I had no idea she'd suffered so much. Now I'm asking you to divorce her, but you're making excuses and refusing. What are you trying to do?"

Cheng Yu let him act in front of him, and at the same time felt even more sorry for Meng Tingwan.

If they hadn't hurt her like that, she wouldn't have developed a mental illness.

All of this is thanks to them!

"Chairman Meng, after saying all this, I still stand by what I said: when she comes back, I'll accept whatever she wants, whether it's a divorce or whatever. Besides, she doesn't seem to like others making decisions for her, does she?"

With Cheng Yu so stubborn and unyielding, Meng Yunting really couldn't do anything about it.

Everyone says that Cheng Yu is a man of deep cunning. Although I haven't been in the business world for the past few years, I still know about his deeds.

They really shouldn't be underestimated.

“Okay, then let’s wait for Xiaowan to come back.” Meng Yunting sighed, his eyes still a little red. “But I’ve read your marriage agreement. Xiaowan didn’t ask for anything. She won’t get any benefits from your divorce. It’s just that she’s a popular actress now. If this kind of thing gets out, it will definitely affect her reputation and status in the industry.”

"So what do you mean?"

"My daughter has been with you for so many years, and as her father, I want to make it up to you on her behalf." Meng Yunting spoke righteously, as if he were truly standing up for his daughter.

Cheng Yu lowered his eyes and tugged at the corners of his mouth.

All that buildup was just a prelude to him.

Saying they want compensation on behalf of their daughter is just a way to satisfy their own interests.

If they heard about it, I don't know how heartbroken they would be.

Even when she wanted a divorce, her own father would seize the opportunity to stir up trouble and squeeze out every last bit of value from her.
