Chapter 2715: Chapter 2715: He Actually Went on a Blind Date?! (11)

"Sure, but you should let Sir know first. If I drink you under the table, it doesn’t count as bullying you." Dan Tingye had been holding back all night, eagerly wanting to drink, and Zhong Qing’s invitation was right up his alley.

He raised his glass, clinked it with hers, and downed it in one gulp.

The two of them seemed to be competing, drinking one glass after another, completely forgetting about everyone around them.

Meimei tried several times to persuade him to drink less, but just as she started to speak, Jiang Nan stopped her.

"I think my brother seems in a bad mood today. Since someone is drinking with him, you might as well let him enjoy it so he won’t take it out on you later."

"..."

Even Jiang Nan noticed he was in a bad mood today?

She thought only she had noticed...

She just couldn’t figure out if he was mad at her or something else.

He hadn’t said a word to her all night, just maintained a dark expression.

No, he did say one thing, telling her not to touch him... Thinking about it made Meimei’s nose tingle with sadness.

She kept reminding herself, it’s fine, it’s not like he hasn’t scolded her before. Last time she got lost in the grove, when he found her, didn’t he scold her even harsher?

She didn’t feel aggrieved then, so what’s there to feel aggrieved about now?

But seeing his eyes on Zhong Qing alone, watching Zhong Qing clink glasses with him endlessly, even grabbing his glass to drink from, her heart inexplicably felt sour.

Hadn’t there been rumors that he had no close female friends and didn’t like interacting with girls? Then why was he so familiar with Zhong Qing?

And they said he never smiled at girls, but hadn’t he just smiled at Zhong Qing like a blooming flower!

Rumors really aren’t trustworthy. He wasn’t some aloof male god; he just smiled for Zhong Qing and no one else could see it.

And those rumors about him having someone he liked, saying that the girl he liked left him and he waited for many years—was that true or false?

Earlier, he said Zhong Qing liked to run around and didn’t want to settle down. Could it be the person he’s been waiting for is Zhong Qing?!

As this thought flashed through her mind, Meimei stood there as if struck by lightning, her face gradually losing color, looking at Dan Tingye in disbelief.

Could it be what she thought?

She really wanted to ask him what Zhong Qing meant to him...

"Meimei, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? Your face looks so pale. Are you feeling unwell?" Jiang Nan called her a few times, but she didn’t respond. He reached out to grab her hand.

Feeling her cold fingertips, his brows furrowed.

"Did you catch a cold?"

"I’m fine..."

Meimei withdrew her hand guiltily and, seeing Jiang Nan’s concerned gaze, felt like a thief caught red-handed. She stood up abruptly from her chair, "I’m going to the bathroom."

"Meimei..." Jiang Nan stood up to follow, but before he could catch up, Meimei had vanished from sight.

No one was chasing her, so why was she running so fast?

First it was Tingye, and now Meimei. What’s going on with everyone tonight, acting so strangely?

Jiang Nan’s gaze darkened, but seeing the servants following Meimei, he felt reassured and turned back to raise his glass, "Come, let’s also toast to our dear Miss Qing."

"You guys drink, I’m going to the restroom." Dan Tingye’s eyes flashed, he set down his glass and turned to leave.
