Chapter 2645: The Difficult Condition (Part 2)
Bai Zheng seemed like a master negotiator, gradually taking the initiative into his own hands.
Dan Tingye stood beside him, his eyebrows tightly knitted, looking at Meimei’s distressed little face, feeling a heartache wanting to hug her.
But he couldn’t. Bai Zheng disliked everything about the Dan Family, including him.
If he were to help Meimei at this moment, it would only make Bai Zheng more determined to take Meimei away.
He could only endure.
"I’ve thought it through. I want to stay." Meimei nodded heavily, her cute face full of determination.
"I’ll give you ten minutes. I’ll wait for you outside." Bai Zheng nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Dan Tingye and Jiang Nan, dropped a sentence, and stepped outside.
As soon as his figure disappeared, everyone in the living room breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Meimei, how could you agree to Mr. Bai just now? By doing this, you’re agreeing to become the heir of the Bai Group." Jiang Nan paced anxiously in the living room.
"What to do? What to do?"
"..."
Meimei was also very upset, her little head hanging low, not knowing what to do.
Dan Tingye’s expression remained indifferent, as if this result didn’t affect his mood.
He stepped over to stand beside Meimei, pinching her cheek with his long fingers.
"Actually, Mr. Bai just wants a promise, not for you to achieve something immediately. Just agree with him, do as he says, and you can leave the rest to me."
"...What do you mean?" Meimei was taken aback, raising her head in confusion to look at him.
"Bro, you mean to handle the company’s matters for Meimei so that she can have time to study medicine?" Jiang Nan was jolted, then looked at him in shock.
Dan Tingye slightly raised the corners of his mouth, nodding.
"Not entirely help, but I can teach you, allowing you to complete the tasks in the shortest time, so it won’t affect your medical studies with Mr. Diwu."
Dan Tingye withdrew his hand, his dark eyes revealing a hint of strategy.
"Mingmei didn’t return here with Mr. Bai, which means Mr. Bai certainly won’t stay long. By then, if he’s not around, it’ll be no hard thing for us to pull the wool over their eyes."
"If Mr. Bai knew your thoughts, he’d probably come back to beat you up." Jiang Nan lay on the sofa, propped his head with one hand, and couldn’t help but tease.
"But I don’t care about that, as long as Meimei can stay, I’m happy."
Dan Tingye glanced at him, his eyes darkened, and then he lowered his gaze, looking at Meimei, "Rest assured and go back with Mr. Bai. I’ll also attend next month’s charity gala on behalf of Dan Group, so you don’t need to worry about being alone."
Meimei nodded, knowing she could continue her medical studies, she left with peace of mind.
"Young master, the fact that Mr. Bai returned, I’m afraid we can’t hide it from Divine Doctor Di Wu. If he finds out Mr. Bai came back but didn’t take Miss Meimei, he would surely guess what condition Meimei agreed to. By then, he might blame you. Should we explain it to him in advance?"
Yao saw Meimei leave and walked to Dan Tingye, respectfully asking.
"No need for now." Dan Tingye lowered his gaze, contemplative.
-
Unexpectedly to everyone, Bai Zheng left the next day.
"What’s going on? Mr. Bai really left, just like that?" Jiang Nan looked at Meimei, who was sitting before them, smiling and full of excitement as she reported the situation, with an expression full of disbelief.
If he hadn’t just woken up, he would really want to pinch himself to see if he was dreaming.
