However, there was one more thing she hadn’t finished yet.

After school, Mei Shu made an excuse about going shopping with her classmates and shook off the driver sent by Mei Yun. She took a taxi alone to a villa area.

The car could only stop outside the gated community. Mei Shu paid the fare, got out of the car, and dialed the latest phone number in her phone.

Soon, a man in a suit came out to greet her. “You must be Miss Mei, as mentioned in the phone call? Please come in.”

After exchanging greetings with the butler and the security guard at the entrance, they swiped a card to open the gate and invited her into the community.

“Miss Sheng has been waiting for you for a day. But Mr. Sheng will be back soon. Miss Sheng doesn’t want Mr. Sheng to see you, so please make it quick.” “I understand,” Mei Shu nodded gently in response.

Before they reached the Sheng family’s villa, they heard a man’s cry from the courtyard.

“Niannian! You can’t drive me away! 1 don’t want a divorce with you. We’ve been married for so many years. Haven’t 1 been good enough to you? 1 only made a common mistake that any man would make. Please forgive me this time. I promise I won’t look for other women again. From now on, 1’11 only have you. Is that okay?”

“Get lost!” The woman’s voice was sharp and carried a sense of disgust and authority. Although Mei Shu couldn’t see her in person, she could tell from the voice that the woman was on the verge of going insane due to anger.

The man continued to shout stubbornly, “Niannian, didn’t we promise to grow old together? Are you really going to break your promise? Have you forgotten how difficult it was for us when we first got together? How can you talk about divorce so easily?”

The woman’s voice turned icy, “You’re the one who doesn’t want this home anymore. Now, every time I see you, 1 feel disgusted.”

Then, there was a muffled groan from the man, followed by the woman’s scolding, “Since you find those pieces of crap outside so appealing, you can stay with them forever. Remember, the next time I see you, 1’11 have someone beat you up and throw you out. You’re not allowed to step into my house again!”

“Niannian, you can’t abandon me! No one loves you more than 1 do!” The man continued to wail, but he was physically thrown out of the compound by two security guards.

This time, Mei Shu finally saw the true face of the man.

Wasn’t this the renowned detective in Lin City, Lu Ming, who had booked a hotel room with a woman just yesterday?

Thrown out like this, Lu Ming suddenly felt humiliated. No longer begging meekly, he roared, “Sheng Nian, 1 warn you. We are a legally married couple. Even if we divorce, your family’s assets have to be split in half, and you can’t just dump me without giving me a penny! I’m not someone to be trifled with!” “Oh, look at you, still so arrogant even after your wrongdoing. Your thick skin is really something.” Mei Shu sneered, standing by his side.

Only then did Lu Ming realize that there was someone behind him. He turned around in panic, but when he saw that the person speaking was Mei Shu, his fear turned into hatred. “It’s you! I’ve already given you money, and yet you deliberately sent the video to my wife! You intentionally made me homeless. I will never let you off!”

“What’s this? You haven’t even resolved your own family issues, and you’re already rushing out to bite others? Just because you don’t have a master now doesn’t mean you’re not a dog,” Mei Shu sneered. “Detective Lu, in a marriage, the one at fault must leave without anything. Don’t you understand the law? And I still have evidence of your infidelity.”

“Mei Shu, I’ll kill you!” Lu Ming’s eyes turned red with anger, and he lunged at her with all his might.

Mei Shu, unimpressed, shrugged her shoulders. She had no intention of taking any action; someone would naturally handle this for her.

As expected, at the moment when Lu Ming was about to collide with her shoulder, his arm was suddenly seized by the butler.

“Mr. Lu, Miss Mei Shu is a guest of Miss Sheng. Please refrain from laying your hands on our guest.” The butler didn’t hesitate to knock Lu Ming down, then patted his own clothes to remove the wrinkles. With a dignified gesture, he made a “please come in” motion to Mei Shu.

Mei Shu leisurely glanced at the man on the ground, whose face was contorted in anger, then deliberately chuckled. In his furious gaze, she walked slowly into the courtyard.

Although the Sheng family’s status in Lin City was not as high as the Lu family’s, it was still much higher than the Mei family’s.

Therefore, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, Sheng Nian, had no intention of coming out to greet her.

Mei Shu didn’t mind this and followed the butler into the spacious and bright living room of the villa.

Sheng Nian was seated at the head of the room, elegantly sipping tea as if she wasn’t the one who was cursing just moments ago.

“Please have a seat, Miss Mei Shu.”

Mei Shu obediently took a seat at the lower end of the room, waiting until a servant served her a steaming cup of tea before speaking calmly, “Miss Sheng has a decisive approach to handling relationships, and I admire that.”

Sheng Nian smiled and put down her teacup. “Thank you for letting me know the truth. But are you not afraid that I will hate you?”

“Miss Sheng is not that kind of person,” Mei Shu praised her indirectly.

Sheng Nian felt comfortable hearing that, and even the resentment that had been stirred up by Lu Ming just now dissipated instantly.. “Tell me, why did you want to see me personally?”
