Chapter 2879: Chapter 2879: Perfectly Missing Each Other (7)

Dan Tingye paused his steps, somewhat surprised, and turned to look at her.

What did she just say?

Dan Tingye furrowed his brows slightly, returned to her side, held her hand, and leaned close to her cherry lips, wanting to hear clearly what she had just said.

"Don’t..."

Meimei moved uneasily, her petite body seemed to recognize the presence of Dan Tingye, the previous resistance slowly halted, and she instinctively leaned closer to him.

Her small hand tightly grasped his, murmuring, "Tingye..."

"..."

Dan Tingye’s body stiffened slightly, holding her hand tighter, his eyes slightly narrowed, firmly staring at her.

Thinking she was reluctant for him to leave, he turned over to lie beside her, holding her in his arms.

"It’s me, sleep now, I’ll stay with you."

The phone in his pocket vibrated, but Dan Tingye casually silenced it, gazing at Meimei resting in his embrace.

His long fingers brushed over her cheek, noticing her snuggling motion into his arms, his gaze grew increasingly tender.

His large hand gently patted her back, coaxing her to sleep like soothing a child afraid of the dark.

The panic Meimei felt earlier gradually disappeared, obediently leaning into Dan Tingye, and she fell into a deep sleep.

Until right before dawn, Meimei didn’t speak anymore, enjoying a rare restful sleep.

Dan Tingye watched the sky lighten, adjusted his movements, lifted the blanket, and sat up.

He turned his head to glance at the serene sleeping face of Meimei, his gaze deep, his thin lips touched hers lightly like a dragonfly skimming water, then he stood up and left the boxing gym.

When he reached the parking lot, he saw Yao respectfully waiting by his sports car.

"Young master, the plane is still on standby, are you still heading to Germany?" Seeing Dan Tingye come out, Yao approached to inquire.

Dan Tingye’s gaze flickered, "Yes."

-

"Tingye..."

Just as Dan Tingye had left, Meimei in the lounge immediately awakened.

Her dazed eyes fixated on the ceiling, her mind returning to reality after a few seconds, abruptly sitting up and anxiously looking beside her.

She dreamt last night that Tingye was talking to her, his voice was gentle, just like before, he didn’t mind her dirtiness.

Meimei looked everywhere in the room but couldn’t find Dan Tingye, she lifted the blanket and got up, running towards the direction of the bathroom.

She searched every corner of the lounge but still didn’t see Dan Tingye, her petite body leaned against the wall and slowly crouched down, hugging herself, staring aimlessly ahead.

Her muddled mind gradually became clear.

The chill in the air seemed to mock her foolishness.

She was the one unwilling to see Tingye, why would he still come to see her?

Tears suddenly fell, Meimei curled up in grievance, looking at the silent room, crying like an abandoned child.

When Jiang Nan came in, he saw Meimei sleeping against the wall on the floor.

He furrowed his brows, stepped forward, and as he was about to lift her, Meimei awoke suddenly, grasped him with her small hand, and immediately called out, "Tingye!"

Her voice was full of excitement and joy.

Her crystalline eyes were filled with hope, but upon seeing it was Jiang Nan, her gaze slowly dimmed.

Seeing the change in her expression, Jiang Nan’s heart also felt tightly clutched.

He ultimately wasn’t Dan Tingye, nor could he replace him.

"If you miss him so much, why won’t you see him?" Jiang Nan’s lips moved slightly, his voice tinged with bitterness.
