Chapter 2712: Chapter 2712: He Actually Went on a Blind Date?! (8)

Her hands hidden under the table were anxiously twisting together.

"Meimei, what’s wrong? Why not eat something? Is the food not to your taste?" Jiang Nan noticed that she hadn’t picked up her cutlery and asked with a puzzled expression.

As soon as he spoke, even Zhong Nianhua, sitting at the head of the table, looked over at her, "Girl, you can tell me if there’s something you like to eat, and I’ll have the kitchen make it for you. Don’t go hungry, or Jiang Nan will blame me."

"..."

Meimei loosened her grip and immediately reached out to grab a knife and fork, looking at him as if nothing happened.

"No, nothing. I just saw so much delicious food and don’t know what to start with first."

"Bang——"

Just as Meimei finished her sentence, there was a muffled thud beside her, startling her to turn her head, only to see Dan Tingye’s wine glass slip from his hand and fall to the ground, shattering.

The shattered wine glass spilled red wine on the carpet, spreading out like blood.

Dan Tingye’s face was very dark, a shade she had never seen before.

As if repressing a certain anger, unwilling to lose composure in front of others.

Facing her worried gaze, his eyes flickered as he lowered them, speaking lightly, "Sorry, my hand slipped."

"What are you waiting for? Quickly give Mr. Tingye a new glass and clean up the floor!" Zhong Nianhua was momentarily stunned but soon spoke calmly.

The butler promptly brought a new glass, respectfully poured wine for Dan Tingye, and handed it to him.

Dan Tingye held it elegantly, gently shook it, brought it to his lips, and took a sip, his eyes slightly narrowed.

His noble aura silently spread, making everyone forget his previous lapse in composure, as if such a small episode had never happened.

When everyone’s attention was no longer focused on him, he placed down the wine glass and turned to look at her.

His deep gaze seemed to want to see through her heart.

He never expected that she would come with Jiang Nan.

Does she know what her presence here signifies?

Seeing Zhong Nianhua treat them as a couple, did she not think to explain?

He couldn’t believe that with those obvious words just spoken, she still couldn’t understand!

Or does she feel happy seeing others consider them a couple?

Just thinking about that possibility made him insanely jealous, the hand holding the wine glass tightened silently, veins surfacing on the back of his hand, as if he might crush the glass.

"Tingye, are you uncomfortable? You look really pale." Meimei pressed his hand, unable to stop herself from asking.

He seemed to be enduring something, and his face was really dark. She was scared he would ignore her, yet couldn’t help but worry if he was truly uncomfortable.

"Don’t touch me!"

Dan Tingye pulled back his hand as if shocked, turned his head, glared coldly at her, then turned away, raising the red wine to drink it down.

"..."

Meimei was shocked into stillness by his shout, looking at him in confusion.

From childhood until now, he had never been this harsh to her...

Moreover, there were so many people here, and he hadn’t lowered his voice with that shout, many people heard it and were now looking at her with gloating eyes, as if mocking her for trying to approach the idol unwisely.

She kept comforting herself that it was alright, but her heart couldn’t help but feel aggrieved, her eyes turning red in an instant.
