Chapter 2640: Bai Zheng Returns in Person (2)
"Dad..."
Meimei’s face turned pale as she placed the plate she was holding onto the table, nervously looking at Dan Tingye.
The thing she feared had finally come true; she thought her father would just send someone to take her back, but she didn’t expect him to come in person.
"There’s no need to be afraid; I’m here. Say what I taught you before, and Mr. Bai might not insist on taking you away." Dan Tingye walked to her side, pulling her small frame into his embrace, noticing her slight trembling, he furrowed his brow.
She really cared about Bai Zheng; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so nervous just hearing he was back.
If Bai Zheng insisted on taking her away, Meimei certainly wouldn’t defy him. What would he use to keep her here then?
"Dad doesn’t like me studying medicine. If he knew I’ve been secretly contacting Mr. Diwu and agreed to take over Mr. Diwu’s laboratory behind his back, he would definitely be angry with me."
Meimei lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong.
The incident at the last press conference was the boldest thing she’s ever done. She originally thought to act first and report later, hoping that once everyone knew she was the heir to the Divine Doctor’s lab, maybe dad wouldn’t oppose it.
Who knew, as soon as she appeared at the press conference, Dan Tingye took her away, and afterward, all her photos were bought at a high price by the Bai Group.
Even without asking, she knew her father must be very, very angry, which is why he came personally this time to get her.
"This isn’t your fault, you don’t need to blame yourself. Listen to me, follow your heart, Mr. Bai really cares about you. If he knew what you truly thought, he certainly wouldn’t force you."
Dan Tingye pulled her, pressing her onto the chair, and handed over a bowl of noodles.
"Eat something first. After eating, we’ll think of a way together, see how to play the scene well tomorrow, so Mr. Bai agrees to let you stay."
"Is it possible?" Meimei raised her head, looking at him uneasily.
"As long as you believe in me, anything is possible." Dan Tingye held her hand, slightly tightening his grip.
"And me. I won’t let Mr. Bai take you away either!"
Jiang Nan walked back to the dining table, sat beside Meimei, and held her other hand.
-
Knowing Bai Zheng was returning, Meimei didn’t go back to the apartment in the complex but stayed at the private villa to discuss strategies.
The three of them didn’t sleep all night, knowing that Meimei might leave again, keeping anyone from falling asleep.
At dawn, Yao hurried back to report the news.
"Young master, it’s confirmed Mr. Bai’s plane has arrived at the international airport. We’ve already sent people to pick him up; he should arrive at the private villa soon."
"I understand. We still don’t know Mr. Bai’s intentions, so let’s not leak any news about Mr. Diwu for now."
If both people came today, the situation would be harder to manage.
Dan Tingye’s eyes glimmered, "Have you prepared what I asked?"
"Yes, the matter of Miss Meimei studying at the GW business school has already been hinted to Mr. Bai, ensuring he knows that during this period of Meimei’s return, she’s been staying in school, studying diligently and hasn’t been involved in any Divine Doctor lab activities."
Yao replied respectfully.
"Brother, for safety, should we go and call Grandpa Ye? If Mr. Bai insists on taking Meimei away, the only one who can keep her here is Grandpa."
Jiang Nan pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
Dan Tingye’s eyes flashed as he looked out the window, "It’s too late; they’re already here."
