âThen do you still have his contact information?â Mei Shu hurriedly asked.
Liu Lan nodded hesitantly. âThere should be. After all, 1 used to be in charge of finance. There are many peopleâs home addresses and accounts. But will 1 be held liable for leaking my privacy if 1 give it to you directly?â
âIf you donât report anything related to the case, you will be held liable by the law.â Mei Shu retorted expressionlessly.
Liu Lan choked. This time, she no longer hesitated. Instead, she opened her phone and found the other partyâs contact information. She didnât expect her to easily find the other partyâs contact information. âFortunately, although Iâve changed my phone over the years, my contact information hasnât been removed. Otherwise, it would have taken me a lot of effort to find it.â
Mei Shu took down the number and said, âThank you. If there are any other questions, I will come to you again. Of course, if anyone makes things difficult for you because of your meeting with me today, you can tell me directly. This is my contact number.â
Liu Lan quickly remembered it and nodded solemnly. âThen you must protect me well. Also, my husbandâs projectâ¦â
âThat matter is not under my jurisdiction.â Mei Shu clearly saw that the light in the other partyâs eyes dimmed. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he said with a relaxed smile, âBut since youâre already so cooperative, 1 think Master Si wonât go back on his word.â
âThatâs good.â Hearing Mei Shuâs words, Liu Lan seemed to be reassured.
At this moment, the waiter came to serve the dishes. Mei Shu simply had dinner with Liu Lan here before taking a cab home.
As soon as he entered, Mei Feng asked nervously, âSister, howâs the investigation going?â
Mei Shu changed into shoes and sat on the sofa. Mei Jing and Mei Yan hurriedly handed over hot tea and snacks and stared at her eagerly.
Mei Shu was amused by her younger brothers, but she couldnât do it now.
She put down the teacup and nodded. âWe can basically conclude that it was Zhou Nan, but we still need evidence. Iâll go to see a person tomorrow weekend to see if I can find any clues from him that 1 missed back then.â
âIâm going too!â Mei Feng immediately volunteered as soon as she said so.
Although Mei Jing and Mei Yan didnât say anything, their eager looks revealed that they really hoped Mei Shu could take them with her.
They all cared deeply about Bai Lingâs matters.
Mei Shu had no reason to refuse them at all.
However, she only agreed to take Mei Feng there alone.
Mei Jing sat on the sofa in disappointment and complained, âSister, are you worried that Yanyan and 1 will be in your way? Didnât 1 prove last time that I could help you?â
Mei Yan also held Mei Shuâs hand pitifully. âSister, I also want to personally investigate what happened back then. Just agree to take me with you.â
âI really want to take you with me.â Mei Shu sighed and said, âBut if weâre not at home, what about Xiao He? Have you forgotten that Mei Mu is also living at home?â
At the mention of this, Mei Jing and Mei Yan stopped complaining.
If they werenât around, what if Butler Zhao was not around Xiao He? Wouldnât that be like a sheep entering the tigerâs den? Mei Mu could do whatever she wanted to Xiao He.
Thinking of this, Mei Jing couldnât help but curse in disgust, âWhen can this woman get out of our house? Iâm annoyed to see her now!â
Mei Yan thought the same, but he still held his brotherâs arm and said in a low voice, âBrother, donât say anymore. Everyone evaluates her very well now!â âHmph!â Mei Jing gnashed his teeth in hatred.
As soon as he said so, Butler Zhao, who had been guarding the gate of the courtyard, rushed in. âThe elderly lady and Miss Mei Mu are back!â
Mei Jing, who had been indignant just now, suddenly deflated like a deflated ball. âGranny is too biased. Whatâs so good about that woman? I really donât know what kind of bewildering medicine Wang Yue and Mei Mu gave Granny!â
âYouâre all home.â
As she spoke, the elderly lady intimately took Mei Muâs hand and walked in from outside. Her smiling eyes scanned everyoneâs faces, and when they finally fell on Mei Shu, they had turned cold. âGo away. Go back to your room. There are so many of you squeezed here. Where can I sit? You donât know how to respect your elders at all!â
Seeing this, Mei Mu quickly persuaded her obediently, âGrandma, donât talk about Sister. Sister must have just come back from outside. She must be tired. Why donât 1 help you back to your room to rest?â
The elderly lady narrowed her turbid eyes and sniffed carefully. âOh, you smell of alcohol. Humph, youâre so young, but you donât learn well. When your father comes back, Iâll complain to him and ask him to beat you up!â
âGranny, donât be angry. Sister must have a reason to drink.â Mei Mu smiled apologetically at Mei Shu and quickly helped her up the stairs..
