Chapter 123 The Decision to Conceal
Xu Jiaming really didn't expect her to say that.
For a moment, I didn't know how to answer.
"Teacher Meng, but my fans, they..."
Meng Tingwan smiled. "How do you know they're your fans?"
"What do you mean?" Xu Jiaming was bewildered.
"What I mean is, with so much truth and falsehood online, how can you be so sure that those fans who spread rumors about you are your true fans and not some other kind of people?"
In an instant, Xu Jiaming seemed to understand something.
"Teacher Meng, I understand what you mean."
Meng Tingwan didn't have a bad impression of him to begin with, so her tone remained gentle. "We'll be spending more than ten days together in the future. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me."
Xu Jiaming was flattered and quickly stood up from his seat, stammering, "I, you, Teacher Meng, thank you, really, no one has ever told me these things before."
"No need to thank me. I've only been in this industry a few years longer than you, so you know what to do next?"
Meng Tingwan wanted to remind him that those fans online who claimed to love him but spread rumors about his female co-stars might have been orchestrated by his rivals, or there might have been other reasons, all to prevent any director from casting him and ruining his career.
If that's the case, then his studio should start preparing for an investigation.
When Xu Jiaming got out of the car, he clearly had a smile on his face.
You can tell she's in a good mood.
Fang Jia gave him a brief glimpse.
Back in the car, she asked Meng Tingwan, "What did you talk about with him?"
"It's nothing, I just gave him some advice." Meng Tingwan flipped through the script, a faint smile on her lips.

That evening, as Cheng Yu was preparing to leave, Feng Zhuo came over with an appraisal report.
"Boss, the results are in."
He handed him the file folder, which Cheng Yu immediately took, opened, and flipped directly to the last page.
The figure above is 99.99%, indicating that the two individuals are biologically related.
"Indeed, it really is."
Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, his heart filled with mixed emotions as he looked at the result.
He knew this was indeed good news, but Moore's words made him hesitate.
He put the report in the drawer and said to Feng Zhuo, "Don't tell Tingting about this yet."
Feng Zhuo nodded firmly, "I understand."
I certainly can't say it myself; if anyone has to, it has to be my boss.
He just didn't quite understand.
The initial agreement between the two was for the boss to help find the person. Now that the person has been found and is right in front of them, why not say anything?
On the way back, Cheng Yu told Mo Er about the test results.
The person on the other end remained silent for a while before finally saying, "Okay, I understand."
How is Xixi feeling today?
Moore turned to look at the girl eating in the restaurant and saw that she was looking over at him. He smiled and said, "It's good. She seems to have selectively forgotten some things about yesterday. She doesn't remember having a nightmare and has forgotten the details of the dream."
Cheng Yu could sense that Nancy's illness seemed to have worsened again.
"Moll, I will pretend I know nothing about this. I won't let her find out anything about it, so you just keep an eye on Xixi as before."
"You really don't plan to tell her?"
Cheng Yu switched hands to hold the phone, his dark eyes looking out the window at the rapidly passing light and shadows. "Letting her know that her sister is still alive, but that they can't acknowledge each other, will be even more devastating for her than not knowing that Xingxing is still alive."
"The two of them get along quite well now, and under the current circumstances, it's really not appropriate to reveal it."
Mo'er agreed with him, "Okay, I will protect Xixi."
Let's talk about it after all this is over.
But some things, once exposed, can't be kept secret just because you want to.

Seeing that her brother had been on the phone for so long, Nancy ate even slower.
When she saw Moore return, she asked curiously, "Brother, whose phone call was that? It took so long! What did you talk about?"
“Cheng Yu told me some things.” Mo Er didn’t want her to ask too many questions. “This has nothing to do with you, so don’t worry about it. Just go to school and I’ll take you back after the exchange period ends.”
Nancy, biting her fork, smiled and said, "Okay, but brother, if we go back, can Sister Tingwan come with me?"
The mention of that name sent a shiver down Mohr's spine.
"Then you'll have to ask your brother Cheng Yu. Besides, she's a movie queen, she has a job, so she definitely can't go wherever she wants like you."
“That’s true.” Nancy’s mood was noticeably lower.
Mo'er carefully observed her expression and asked again, "Xixi, do you really like Meng Tingwan?"
“Of course I like her. She’s my idol, and she treats me like a younger sister. Also, she bought this bracelet for me.” As she spoke, Nancy rolled up her pajama sleeves, revealing the star bracelet.
Mo'er noticed it yesterday and thought she bought it herself, but it turned out to be a gift from Meng Tingwan.
What did she say when she gave you this?
"She didn't say anything. It was just the first time we went out to eat together. She wanted to give me a gift. On that day, three people tried to take me away. I stabbed them, but Sister Wan risked being surrounded by fans to take me away."
As Moore listened, his heart sank even lower.
Indeed, sisters can share a common ground.
Even before she knew that Nancy was her sister, he gave her a star bracelet, protected her, and worried about her.
As Moore looked at Nancy's bright smile, he slowly tightened his grip on his leg.
Xi Xi, please forgive your brother's selfishness. If you ever find out the truth, I hope you won't hate me too much.

When Meng Tingwan arrived at Jinghua Royal Garden, Cheng Yu's car had just stopped.
Because we had to go to the pet hospital to pick up Diudiu halfway there, it took some time.
Diudiu was being held in Cheng Yu's arms. Upon seeing Meng Tingwan, it immediately jumped out of the man's arms and ran straight to its owner.
Meng Tingwan bent down, picked it up, and rubbed her face against its fur.
"Listen to this, didn't you say you'd be back late this afternoon?"
Cheng Yu walked over and gently put his arm around her shoulder.
Meng Tingwan could tell from the smell on Diudiu that Cheng Yu must have taken it for a check-up and a bath. "It came back earlier than the scheduled time because it finished work earlier than planned."
"Thank you so much, you even took Diudiu to take a bath."
Cheng Yu scratched Diudiu's chin with his finger. "No need to thank me. If you want to thank me, give me a kiss."
Meng Tingwan looked around, somewhat speechless. "There are so many people here. Let's talk inside later."
Feng Zhuo watched the interaction between the two. It would have been fine before, but now that he knew about that incident, he felt a little guilty.
"Oh, right, An'an, take the things out of the trunk."
Meng Tingwan placed Diudiu into Cheng Yu's arms.
An An also took out a very large box and handed it to her.
