Chapter 2692: His Silent Guardianship (15)
When she had placed two dishes and a soup on the dining table, she went back to the kitchen and washed the dishes, calling Dan Tingye, who was watching TV in the living room, to eat.
"I haven’t cooked Chinese food for a long time, I don’t know if it tastes good. If it doesn’t, you can go back to the villa to eat. I’m afraid you won’t be full."
Meimei scooped a bowl of rice and placed it in front of Dan Tingye.
Hearing her words, he didn’t react much; he just took the bowl and ate quietly.
He was very well-mannered, and hardly spoke at the dining table, eating elegantly, occasionally giving her some food.
Meimei had never been so nervous. When she saw him picking up the dish she cooked to put in his mouth, she held her breath, afraid he might find it unappetizing.
But after waiting for a while, he finished the food in his mouth and showed no intention of speaking.
He didn’t scold her or praise her, just ate silently.
Meimei was unsure whether she felt relieved or disappointed, watching him, she learned from him to eat silently, too.
The meal was eaten in silence.
Only when clearing the dishes did she realize the two dishes and soup she made were all finished with nothing left!
Does this mean he actually found it quite tasty?
Did she pass the test?
Meimei’s lost mood instantly turned into joy, happily tidying up the dishes and putting them in the sink.
After thinking for a while, she took out fruit from the fridge, washed, sliced, and placed it on a plate, bringing it to the living room.
After doing all this, she went back to the kitchen to wash dishes.
When she finished washing the dishes and returned to the living room, seeing the fruit all eaten up, she really smiled brightly.
"Why are you smiling?"
"..."
Did she smile?
Meimei was stunned, reaching out to touch her face; she really seemed to be smiling.
Happy, happiness made her smile, does there need to be a reason?
"Come here, I’ll teach you how to look at the project plan." After eating, Dan Tingye started working, and seeing Meimei coming out, he simply took a document and used it to explain to her.
Meimei was very smart. After he explained once, she was able to draw inferences.
"This is enough to meet Mr. Bai’s requirements." After a half-hour explanation, Dan Tingye closed the document and tossed it aside, not letting her continue to read.
His gaze fell on a box in the living room, "That’s the medical book Mr. Diwu sent you. You can start reading it now, and Mr. Diwu said if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask him."
"..."
Meimei followed his gaze, looking at the box in the corner, her eyes dimmed, biting her lip.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally spoke.
"Tingye, am I being too willful?"
She was the Bai Family’s only daughter; what would happen to the Bai Group if she didn’t take over?
If she truly pursued medicine, her father would surely be disappointed.
"Want to give up?"
Dan Tingye reached out, cupping her small face, looking steadily at her lonely expression, the corners of his mouth lifting in a smile.
"Inheriting the family business and pursuing hobbies don’t conflict. What I’m teaching you now is the ability a qualified family heir should possess. As for the Bai Group, you don’t necessarily have to manage it yourself; as long as you have basic business skills, you can hire a professional management team to run it for you. This isn’t a conflict."
