Chapter 2768: Chapter 2768: Accidentally Discovering His Secret (5)

Jiang Nan was startled by her shout, his tall figure suddenly freezing. He slowly turned around, his shocked eyes locking tightly onto Youyou. He enunciated each word, "What did you say? Say it again?"

"..."

Youyou bit her lip and took a deep breath. "I went to Dan Group this morning to look for you. But when I got there, I saw you coming out of Dan Tingye’s office and heading to the parking lot alone, so I followed you. Later Meimei came to find you. Everything you two said—I heard it all."

She hadn’t meant to eavesdrop. It was just that when she saw Jiang Nan leaving Dan Tingye’s office, his face looked terrible. She didn’t know what he’d said to Dan Tingye, so she could only follow him. Who knew she’d then see Meimei coming over to find him.

Adding that to what Jiang Nan had said to her when he was drunk before, it wasn’t hard for Youyou to guess that the person he wanted to protect for a lifetime was Meimei.

Now, seeing him so anxious to rush back the moment he saw that news report, only confirmed everything.

"So what? You heard it all and think you know everything now, and you want to come comfort me like some Holy Mother? Is that why you’ve been clinging to me all day?"

Jiang Nan’s gaze tightened. He stepped forward, reached out, and clamped down on Youyou’s shoulders, shaking her hard.

"In your eyes, am I that much of a sore loser? You think I’m going back just to wreck things for them?"

"What on earth are you talking about? I don’t understand a word of this!" Youyou tried to pull away, but couldn’t break free of his arms. Pain made her knit her brows.

"That hurts..."

"..."

Jiang Nan’s arms went stiff. Looking at her little face gone pale, he finally realized what he’d just done. He abruptly let go and nervously pulled her closer to him. "Are you okay?"

"..."

Meeting his concerned gaze, all the anger in Youyou’s chest had nowhere to go.

She’d really never seen anyone so contradictory. He clearly liked Meimei; he could just chase her openly. Worst case scenario, he’d get his heart broken—why act like he was dying?

If he didn’t want to chase her, then let go cleanly. Don’t say one second that he’s just in a bad mood and wants to calm down, then the next second, the moment he sees some news about Meimei, he gets all anxious to run back and find her.

Like this, he didn’t look like someone who was letting go at all.

"I’m fine, my shoulder just hurts a little. Look, your car’s over there. If you want to go back, then go. Don’t worry about me. I don’t want to meddle in your business anymore either."

Youyou rubbed her shoulder and turned to walk toward the side of the road, getting ready to hail a cab.

He’d grabbed her so hard just now her arm was about to be yanked off. At a time like this, the farther she stayed from him, the better. Otherwise who knew if next time it would be her face or her leg that got unlucky.

"Sir, take me to... ah!"

Just as Youyou was about to get into the taxi, an arm suddenly grabbed her wrist. Her whole body was lifted off the ground and fell into a broad chest, startling her so much that she raised her hand to hit!

When she saw that the one holding her was Jiang Nan, her hand froze in midair.

She blinked her wide eyes in astonishment.

Wasn’t he in a hurry to go find Meimei? Why had he run over to stop her instead?

And he was holding her so tightly, like he was afraid she’d fall.

"Put me down, I have legs."

Youyou squirmed, wanting to get down from his arms, but Jiang Nan’s face was taut as he turned and strode straight toward his sports car.

He placed her in the car, fastened her seatbelt, then walked around toward the driver’s seat.

As soon as he got in, Youyou immediately turned her head to look at him. "Where are you taking me?"
