Chapter 2848: Chapter 2848: Unexpected (3)

Even though they all know that they are not related by blood, in the eyes of outsiders, they are siblings. Zhong Qing was the first one to pierce through this notion, and seeing Zhong Qing made her feel uneasy.

Meimei was accustomed to considering everyone else’s feelings. She was afraid to see him go against Ye Zhanxing, so she would just wrong herself.

Dan Tingye understood her inner conflict, which is why he agreed to accompany her on this journey.

Watching her slender figure, his eyes gradually deepened, filled with a sense of determination.

After dealing with the Zhong Family’s matters, he would solidify their relationship. Once she truly became his woman, he would have the leverage to negotiate with Bai Zheng.

Even if Bai Zheng wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t let go of her hand...

"Youyou agreed, and Jiang Nan will also go with us. With the four of us, we shouldn’t lose even if it comes to a fight."

After hanging up the phone, Meimei returned to Dan Tingye’s side, joking lightly.

After speaking, she playfully stuck out her tongue, completely unaware that Dan Tingye was already plotting in his mind about how to win her over sooner, so Bai Zheng would agree to let them be together.

"It’s getting late; I’ll take you home to rest," Dan Tingye held her hand, ready to leave with her.

"Tingye, you go back by yourself. I want to stay at the villa and keep Grandpa company today." Meimei withdrew her hand, looking up weakly at the surprised Dan Tingye.

Dan Tingye frowned, looking at his empty hand, his expression turning unpleasant.

He really disliked the feeling when she suddenly vanished from his side, as if he might lose grip of her any moment.

Damn, he had a very unsettling feeling about going to the Zhong Family.

Meimei thought he was upset, so she took his hand again, her voice sounding like she was acting coy, "I’ve been with you these days, and haven’t had a good time with Grandpa. Plus, if I’m going to the Zhong Family’s banquet, I need to dress to impress, and I have to have Grandma tailor a dress; staying here saves me the trouble of going back and forth."

"..."

Dan Tingye’s deep gaze was fixed on her, as if he wanted to see through her heart, to understand what she was truly thinking.

After watching for a while and not finding anything amiss on her face, he finally released her hand, leaned forward, and kissed her forehead, "I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow night."

Meimei spent the entire day at the Ye Family Villa without leaving.

As if nothing had happened, she continued to drink tea and chat with Ye Zhanxing, prepare medicinal meals for him, and from time to time, discuss the differences between medical theories and practical experiences with him.

Ye Zhanxing, having been ill for so long, had become knowledgeable about medicine. Many clinical insights that Meimei couldn’t find in books, Ye Zhanxing was able to explain to her from personal experience. Once Meimei got into the subject she loved, medicine, she became obsessed, clinging to Ye Zhanxing all day, asking this and that.

When Dan Tingye arrived at the Ye Family, he was convinced that he would see a princess already dressed up and waiting for him to take her to his sports car...

But instead, there she was, a petite figure sprawled on the couch in the living room, her two slender legs crossed and swaying in mid-air. She was in pajamas, biting a pen, tugging on her hair until it resembled a bird’s nest, lost in thought...

In her entire get-up, there was no hint of her intending to go out. To put it nicely, it was casual; to put it bluntly, it was sloppy!
