Chapter 2707: He’s Actually Going on a Blind Date?! (3)
"Jiang Nan, could you accompany me to the supermarket? I need to buy groceries and could use a helper to carry things. But to reward you, I can treat you to dinner that I’ll cook myself."
With Jiang Nan around, even when Tingye comes, it won’t be so awkward.
Thought Meimei as she stepped forward and patted Jiang Nan’s shoulder, "Anyway, Tingye told you to rest this afternoon, and you have nothing to do, so you might as well take care of your little sister!"
"So you’re saying I have no chance to refuse, huh? Let’s go then." Jiang Nan smoothly took her hand and led her towards the door.
As they reached the doorway, Meimei quickly pulled her hand back, a bit flustered.
"I’m going back to my room to get my purse!"
"..."
Jiang Nan looked at his empty palm, furrowing his brow.
Why does he feel that Meimei is acting a bit strange today...?
With Jiang Nan as the helper, Meimei certainly didn’t skimp on her shopping—she bought two big bags in one go, filled with vegetables, meats, fruits, snacks... everything was covered.
Once they returned to the villa, Jiang Nan immediately sprawled back onto the sofa, tugging at his tie.
"I figured it out; you and my brother are quite alike, both business-minded and just thinking about how to exploit me."
"Here, have a glass of water. You worked hard today. I’ll make you something delicious now. You definitely won’t regret accompanying me to the supermarket today." Meimei placed the glass on the table and turned into the kitchen to start preparing.
Her movements were swift, and she was even more skillful at cooking. The knife in her hand seemed perfectly natural.
On her, there was no sign of an overly delicate demeanor you might expect from a daughter of a wealthy family.
Her gentleness wasn’t superficial; it was ingrained in her bones. Just being near her felt like it brought a sense of peace.
Lying on the sofa, Jiang Nan could see her busy figure in the kitchen just fine from his angle. Just thinking that she was cooking for him caused his almond-shaped eyes to narrow, a wicked smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
When Meimei emerged from the kitchen, the table was already set with seven dishes, and she carried a pot of soup.
"That’s enough, no need to make more. It’s just the two of us; there’s no way we can finish all this food." Jiang Nan stepped forward and took the soup from her hands, placing it on the table.
"..."
Meimei was just about to say something when she realized her phone in her pocket was vibrating.
She stepped aside, took out the phone, and glanced at it.
It was a message from Dan Tingye saying he wouldn’t be coming for dinner today.
Meimei tightened her grip on the phone, turning back to look at the full table of food, a tinge of disappointment flashing in her eyes.
Is Tingye angry?
Originally, she wanted to prepare a few more dishes for him to try, but who would have thought he wouldn’t come...
"Meimei, what are you daydreaming about? With so much food, if we don’t hurry up and eat, we won’t finish till tomorrow!" Jiang Nan sat at the table, picking up his chopsticks and eagerly digging in.
Meimei’s culinary skills were excellent. While not as professional as a five-star chef, her cooking carried the flavor of home.
Very homely, yet very appetizing.
Jiang Nan ate three bowls of rice in one go and managed to eat most of the dishes, nearly too full to stand.
In comparison, Meimei ate much less.
She only ate one bowl of rice, then stared at a dish of sweet and sour ribs, dazed, and stood up to clear the table as soon as she saw Jiang Nan was full.
