Chapter 2863: Chapter 2863: The First Person to Find Her (1)

"Young Master..."

Yao looked at Zhong Nianhua standing nearby, unable to stop himself from wanting to plead. But facing Dan Tingye’s cold, fierce gaze, he stopped as soon as he opened his mouth.

They all knew that Meimei was Dan Tingye’s weakness; anyone else could be offended, but Meimei was off-limits.

This time, Zhong Qing essentially caused Dan Tingye to betray Meimei himself. If she really slept with the wrong person, even if Dan Tingye didn’t kill Zhong Qing, she would wish she were dead.

"Cough, cough—"

Zhong Qing was suspended in mid-air, her feet unable to touch the ground, struggling in discomfort as the blood drained from her face, leaving a horrifying paleness. She was on the verge of passing out, yet Dan Tingye showed no sign of stopping.

"Stop!"

A low voice came from outside the door. Ye Zhanxing, escorted by bodyguards, strode in from outside. Seeing the situation in the living room, he immediately ordered someone to rush forward and save Zhong Qing.

"Cough, cough... Cough, cough, cough..."

Zhong Qing was revived from near-death, her body turning into a puddle of soft mud. As soon as she caught her breath, she crawled toward Zhong Nianhua, clutching his pant leg with tears streaming down her face.

"Grandfather, save me. I truly realize my mistake... I don’t want to die..."

The marks of Dan Tingye’s fingers were particularly terrifying on Zhong Qing’s neck, as if they were about to snap it. If Ye Zhanxing hadn’t arrived in time, she would already be a corpse.

Yet Zhong Nianhua hadn’t spoken a word from start to finish, completely handing Zhong Qing over to Dan Tingye’s judgment.

Still, there was a glimmer in his aged eyes, likely from realizing that Dan Tingye really intended to kill Zhong Qing.

"Grandfather."

Dan Tingye’s tall figure paused slightly, looking at the suddenly appearing Ye Zhanxing, with a mocking gaze directed at Zhong Nianhua.

This was the most revered elder in the business world, yet when it came to the Zhong Family, he resorted to despicable tactics.

Ye Zhanxing arrived so timely; who would believe there wasn’t a hand from Zhong Nianhua involved?

"If you still consider me your grandfather, then bring your people and come back with me! This is the Zhong Family home. With such a grand scene, what are you planning to do?"

Ye Zhanxing stepped forward, his stern face showing displeasure, his gaze sweeping over the bodyguards behind Dan Tingye, his brows furrowing tightly.

"Grandfather doesn’t even ask what happened and wants me to leave with my people. If I really did sleep with Zhong Qing last night, would you be here forcing a marriage for the Zhong Family now?"

Dan Tingye’s mocking smile became more apparent as his gaze fell on Zhong Qing, filled with murderous intent.

"...What do you mean by that?"

Ye Zhanxing’s hand gripping the cane stiffened, looking at Dan Tingye with some surprise. His gaze swept over Dan Tingye and then toward Zhong Qing, capturing the trace of guilt on her fearful face; he understood a few things.

His expression turned unpleasant, his gaze cold as he cleared his throat.

"Your marriage, your mother has already mentioned, let you decide alone, none of us will interfere. But this is the Zhong Family home; even if you want to kill someone, you better restrain yourself!"

In front of Zhong Nianhua, if Zhong Qing really died, not only would his decades-long friendship with Zhong Nianhua be severed, but the Dan Family would also gain another enemy.

What’s more important, Dan Tingye should recognize clearly.

"Where’s Meimei?"

Ye Zhanxing’s eyes scanned the living room but did not see Meimei, raising his eyebrows and asking.
