Chapter 61: Public Opinion

  It was unclear whether it was the chill of the weather or the coldness in her heart that made Meng'er shiver violently. After a sudden screech of brakes, an urgent voice pulled Meng'er back from her daze.

  "Did your brother say there's an interview tonight? Why are you alone here?" Tianyu asked as soon as he got into the car, throwing all sorts of questions at Meng'er. Meng'er followed him and opened the car door to get in, but didn't show any signs of answering his questions!

  "Going on a date with your boyfriend?" When she heard her boyfriend's three words, Meng'er's face finally showed a slight crack. "And him? Why did he leave you alone here?"

  Yes, where is he?

  I wish I could hold her back when she walked out of the car! I wish he could appear and explain to her that everything he did was for a good reason when she was waiting for Tianyou! Now, he only loves her!

  But no one came... No matter how long she waited in the cold wind, that person did not appear.

  "Brother, do you believe in fate?" The hand grasping the steering wheel stiffened for a second. But before he could respond, Meng Er continued: "In the past, I didn't! My life was up to me, not heaven! But after going through so many things, I now believe that everything has already been arranged in the underworld!"

  "Meng Er..." Jing Tianyou seemed to be suppressing his emotions with great force. The former Meng Er was innocent and carefree, but since the shooting incident, she had always felt a faint sense of melancholy in her heart. It was also because of this that he had her in his eyes.

  He wanted to protect her, possess her, no longer as a brother. But it seemed like everything was too late, her eyes no longer had him in them. Yet, he who hoped for her happiness heard her say such despairing thoughts and his heart ached painfully!

  "If he can't make you happy, Meng Er, turn around and look back, Yu Gege has always been here!" Meng Er looked at the man beside her in surprise, who was seriously looking ahead at the road conditions. This sentence, which sounded like something a little boy would say, took on a more solemn tone when spoken by him!

  "Hmm, I think Xiaotong sister is pretty good!" Meng'er's words dropped the temperature in the car to zero.

  The silence lasted all the way home. Meng Er said thank you and goodbye to him, but Jing Tian You didn't say another word. Meng Er let out a soft sigh and before he could drive away, she got out of the car herself. She didn't see that man slamming his hand heavily on the steering wheel as he watched her walk away. All she heard was the sudden sound of the car horn in the quiet night!

  Dragging her weary body, Meng'er lay in bed, a night's sleep was not stable, sometimes the scene of the mortal world, sometimes the experience of Sheng Yue, and then ushered in the dawn...

  Open these sleepy eyes, the lazy dream in bed, has no idea that the topics reported by various entertainment media magazines outside are: Emperor Entertainment spent a huge sum of money to create "The Heart of the Step" male and female leads fake play real, sweetly spending Christmas together!

  Another piece of news that occupied the headlines is: an insider revealed that the boss of Yi Huang Entertainment had been engaged to Le Jia, the big sister of the official media's number one family, two years ago, achieving a true strong alliance within the industry!

  By the time she found out, news and public opinion had already spread all over. Yan'er called to ask, Zi Qi called to ask, and the last call was from one of the parties involved in the public opinion! But she hung up!

  Meng'er looked at the information on the computer, for the first time, her news and his information appeared on the same page. However, bad entertainment gossip is a topic of conversation for bystanders after dinner. But for the protagonist of the topic, it's another kind of irony and hurt!

  On the other hand, the mobile phone rang "doo... doo...", and it was Yuwen Feng on the line. Yuwen Feng wasn't at the scene last night, he just called Meng'er to confirm the situation at that time.

  She also remembers the host asking her: "I'm really sorry, let Meng Er record a show on Christmas. Before the show ends, I'll ask a small question on behalf of all fans: Who will you spend this Christmas night with? Family, friends or boyfriend?"

  She smiled at the host and replied: "I'll spend it with everyone!"

  "Oh, Meng Er's answer is so official!" The host saw that Meng Er gave such a vague answer, with some aggressive pursuit.

  Kevin next to him immediately chimed in: "Now, aren't we having fun together! Haha..."

  Looking back on the interview process, I was careful, but in the end, they still caught me off guard. "They took my words out of context, what I originally said wasn't like that at all!" Meng Er replied weakly to Yu Wenfeng.

  "Uh-huh, I'll go take care of it! You just rest well at home!" Yuwen Feng comforted, then carefully choosing his words said: "Meng'er, actually the boss's matter..."

  "Yuwen big brother, my brother said I have something to do, so that's it for now! If there's anything else we'll be in touch!" Meng'er hung up the phone without waiting for his response.

  In the end, she still called Yan Er, she needed someone to accompany her through this period. Yan Er said she was currently in the dormitory, so Meng Er asked the driver to take her back to school.

  It was just the weekend, and there were not many people at school, so Meng didn't receive any strange looks. However, as soon as she arrived at the dormitory entrance, the conversation inside made her wonder if she should continue walking forward or not.

  "I just found out not long ago that he was my fiancé, I didn't intentionally hide it, I really like Brother Canghai!" Mei'er's voice was a little low, and there was also a hint of uncertainty.

  "Le Yu'er, usually you're so loyal to Meng Er, do you think it's interesting to hide the truth like this?" Yan Er paused for a moment before continuing: "You know why she didn't stop Meng Er, you know why she intervened, do you still value our sisterly bond?"

  Her words were like a bomb, blowing open everyone's emotions. "You say I'm hiding things! Well, can you all tell me who among you hasn't hidden something from the others? Yan Mei Shan, the eldest miss of the Shanxin Group, pretended to be an orphan and worked multiple jobs just to earn enough for tuition and living expenses! And you, Zhong Zi Qi, from a family of scholars, your grandfather is a literary giant, although retired, still holds significant influence in the literary world; your parents are university professors, and your uncle is a rising star in politics! And then there's Meng Er, Cang Hai Meng, the eldest miss of the Cang Hai Group, living a carefree life, doted on by her father and brother, and now even has Liang Xin accompanying her!"

  "Who among you hasn't hidden their family background, am I the only one? Being engaged to Yan Yi is not my wish, who among you has understood the difficulties in this! All they know is to say that I snatched away Meng Er's happiness, all they know is to say that I interfered, saying that I disregarded sisterly love, who has ever sympathized with me!"

  After venting all her grievances, Mei'er brushed past her shoulder and left, taking all her dissatisfaction and resentment with her.

  Meng'er didn't have time to call out to her, and her figure had already disappeared around the corner...
