Ruan Group Headquarters, top floor.
Ruan Dong sat behind his desk, his face filled with excitement as he listened to the phone call.
Through the receiver came the sound of a motorcycle engine turning off. The man skillfully got off the motorcycle, wiped away his fingerprints from the motorcycle, and proudly said, “Don’t worry, Brother Ruan, everything is taken care of. That woman will definitely be hospitalized! This time, it’s just a small lesson for her. After she’s discharged, I’ll continue to cause trouble for her!”
Ruan Dong smiled satisfactorily. “I knew there wouldn’t be any problem if I left it to you.”
“Of course, I’ve said it before, I’m willing to do anything for Sister Li, so naturally I’ll do my best to finish this task!”
The man’s tone, relaxed until now, suddenly turned tense. “So when are we going to make Mei Shu pay with her life!”
“No rush.” Ruan Dong smiled. “Do you know about Shen Yuan’s situation? That foolish woman tried to steal a man from Mei Shu, but ended up losing everything. Mei Shu not only sent her to prison but also acquired Shen’s family company at a low price. We should learn from such smart tactics.”
“Are you saying you want to take over the Mei Corporation?” A wicked smile curled up at the corner of the man’s mouth. “Alright, let’s make a big move then. We absolutely can’t let Mei Shu off easily!”
In the hospital room.
Mei Shu finally managed to persuade Mei Feng to leave and found a way to send Lu Si away. She took the opportunity to send a text message to Tang Mei, “How’s the investigation going?”
Tang Mei was waiting for the message from her boss. Seeing it, she quickly reported everything she had found out, “Boss Mei, we received news from Wendith. Miss Ruan Li died from excessive blood loss a few days ago, and the rescue efforts were ineffective.”
Mei Shu’s heart trembled, and there was a moment of buzzing in her ears. She then regained her composure. “Any news from the Zhou family?”
“No.” Tang Mei continued, “Miss Ruan’s funeral was hastily arranged by her family, and they returned to Lincity after handling her affairs. The flight ticket shows they left last night.”
Mei Shu sighed heavily, feeling particularly heavy-hearted. “Alright, I understand. Let me know as soon as you find out anything related to the Ruan family. Also, investigate the relationship between Ruan Li and Lu Si’s mother, Su Huai.”
“Understood.” After finishing the business, Tang Mei couldn’t help but add, “Boss Mei, I want to go to the hospital to see you tomorrow.”
Mei Shu refused, “There are still many things to attend to at the competition venue. I’ll be fine here. You need to hurry up and get the equipment. Remember, don’t let anyone discover the new equipment.”
“Okay, I’ll be careful.” Tang Mei replied before putting down her phone, regretting tapping her head.
If she had insisted on accompanying Mei Shu today, such a car accident wouldn’t have happened!
“Sis, if you keep tapping like that, your brain will go bad.”
Half-jokingly, Tang Long handed her a peeled apple. “Is it about that Mei boss of yours again? It’s not even working hours, why is she still bossing you around?”
Tang Mei snapped at him impatiently, “You don’t understand! As the chief secretary of Boss Mei, I must complete every task assigned by her!”
Tang Long scoffed at this, “That’s why I don’t want to work. I don’t want to be like you, selling myself for money, unable to rest even during rest time.”
Tang Mei frowned and said seriously, “Stop talking nonsense. When you recover, hurry up and find a job for yourself. You’re all grown up, do you want to keep living off my money? Do you expect me to support your family in the future?”
Her words instantly made Tang Long blush. “Sis, do you look down on me? Do you think I’m a burden?”
Tang Mei’s gaze softened as she looked at her brother’s embarrassment, sighing, “I don’t look down on you, but you must have the ability to earn a living yourself.”
Tang Long’s expression dimmed, and he muttered in a low voice, “Sis, have you ever thought that if Mom had only given birth to you, would our lives be better now?”
Tang Mei had indeed thought about this question.
But blood is thicker than water. She was a soft-hearted person and couldn’t truly abandon her only brother.
After a moment of contemplation, Tang Mei shook her head. “Don’t think nonsense. Mom and I are your closest family. We won’t give up on you, but that’s only if you don’t give up on yourself. As long as you don’t gamble and live a decent life in the future, your sister will support whatever you do.”
Tang Long’s eyes flickered, and he said with determination, “Sis, have you forgiven me for what I said last time?”
Tang Mei’s gaze fell slightly on Tang Long’s shoulder, still wrapped in bandages.
Even though Tang Long had said he would exchange her as a hostage to delay the police, when it came to life and death, he still instinctively rushed forward to protect her, fully intending to take the blow for her. So, what was there for her to hold a grudge against?
Moreover, Tang Long didn’t know there were police lying in ambush behind her at the time. When he suddenly rushed out like that, he had made up his mind to take the stabbing for her.
