Chapter 2823: Chapter 2823: No One Can Bully You (11)

Dan Tingye is his only grandson, and Meimei is also his most cherished granddaughter from a young age. How could he not feel heartache? They are both his flesh and blood. He is worried, for if he’s not careful, he might lose more than just a grandson!

"Is Grandpa trying to scare us?" How could Meimei be afraid of him?

Even though Dan Tingye spoke with certainty, he couldn’t help but look down at her pale face, and when he caught the momentary guilt in her eyes, he furrowed his brows.

In his mind, he suddenly recalled the past instances when Meimei avoided him.

She had said that his anger scared her, but who isn’t intimidating when they’re angry? He was only worried about her and would never truly harm her. Meimei should know that.

"If you think I’m trying to scare you, you can ask Meimei herself. Ask her if she ever imagined you would have Zhong Qing captured and even try to dispose of her quietly!"

Ye Zhanxing slapped his hand on the table, his expression stern.

The longstanding authority he held immediately made the atmosphere in the study tense.

"..."

Listening to their argument, the most anxious person was Meimei. She tried several times to push away Dan Tingye, but he held her tightly in his arms, refusing to let go. He even clasped the back of her head, forcing her to lean against his chest, not giving her a chance to speak.

She could clearly feel the anger emanating from him, as well as his worry...

He was afraid Meimei would speak up and support Ye Zhanxing’s suspicions.

Everyone else could misunderstand him or be afraid of him, but she mustn’t...

"If Grandpa has nothing more, I’ll take Meimei back now." Dan Tingye barely parted his lips, and with that said, he didn’t give Ye Zhanxing a chance to respond, pulling Meimei by the hand to leave the study.

Meimei stumbled a few steps, looking back at Ye Zhanxing’s disappointed face, pressing her lips tightly, wanting to say something. Yet, upon seeing Dan Tingye’s displeased expression, in the end, she said nothing, letting him lead her out of the Ye Family Villa.

At the entrance, they ran into Jiang Nan and Youyou who had hurried over. Dan Tingye didn’t even glance at them, directly pushing Meimei into the passenger seat, fastening her seatbelt, before driving away from the Ye Family Villa.

"Dan Tingye!"

Youyou pushed open the car door, just about to step forward, but their car brushed past without any intention of stopping, causing him to stomp his foot in frustration.

"Is he being chased by a ghost, driving so fast? Did he not see us, or can’t he hear me calling?"

"He heard you, but doesn’t want to deal with you."

Jiang Nan opened the car door and got out, moving beside Youyou, looked forward with his long, peach blossom eyes, a mysterious gleam flickering in his gaze.

There’s no way Dan Tingye couldn’t recognize their car. Leaving in such a hurry suggests nothing good happened at the Ye Family.

"Would it kill you to not mock me for a bit? We came all this way, and the two main characters have left. What about us?" Youyou snapped, turning to look at him.

Jiang Nan curled his lips, "Since we’re here, let’s go see Grandpa Ye."

Jiang Nan narrowed his eyes, turning back inside.

He was very curious about what had just happened at the Ye Family.

-

"Swoosh——"

As soon as Dan Tingye’s sports car drove out of the Ye Family Villa’s vicinity, it stopped immediately.

The car rested by the roadside, and once the engine shut off, everything around turned pitch black, leaving only the intermittent flicker of will-o’-the-wisps in the distance.

Meimei clutched at her seatbelt nervously, her face very pale, her clear eyes washed by tears, looking much like a frightened rabbit.
