Chapter 781: Deal

Editor: Henyee Translations

When Mei Shu told Liu Yue that Lu Si wanted to meet him, he wasn’t surprised and readily agreed.

Both parties were quite eager, so they agreed to meet the next afternoon.

“Your condition is to help you send your wife and children out of the country? Can’t you do that yourself?” Mei Shu asked.

Liu Yue shook his head. “I can’t. President Mei, you must be wondering why I made that proposal at the meeting. I’ve been in PR for many years, so I wouldn’t make such a foolish decision.”

Mei Shu asked, “Was someone threatening you to do this?”

Liu Yue chuckled. “President Mei is indeed sharp. Last month, Su Ling found me. You’re probably not unfamiliar with Su Ling. We used to be together. Su Ling likes to be flattered by others, being treated like a princess or queen. When I was with her initially, I really loved her and helped her with many things.”

He chuckled bitterly when he reached this point.

Lu Si scrutinized him.

“I did do many wrong things because of Su Ling, but I really have nothing to do with your parents’ matter. I didn’t get involved,” Liu Yue said.

Lu Si still didn’t speak.

Liu Yue’s expression was somewhat unpleasant. He couldn’t quite figure out what Lu Si was thinking. He had heard the title “Master Si” a long time ago, and everyone who mentioned him seemed to be both afraid and resentful of him.

He didn’t understand before, but now he understood. Without showing some sincerity first, these two wouldn’t believe him.

“And this recent PR crisis of the Mei Corporation was also orchestrated by Su Ling,” Liu Yue dropped a bombshell.

Mei Shu was shocked. She hadn’t expected this matter to be related to Su Ling as well. “So you mean, Su Ling and Ruan Ning conspired together?”

Liu Yue nodded. “Regarding this matter, I also have some evidence on hand. Although it’s not enough to directly convict Su Ling and Ruan Ning, as long as the police follow the clues I’ve provided, they will definitely uncover the truth and clear the Mei Corporation’s name.”

Mei Shu looked at Liu Yue with some disbelief. Since Song Yan had confirmed Liu Yue’s past relationship with Su Ling, the recording was likely authentic, but Liu Yue even knew about the recent crisis of the Mei Corporation involving Su Ling. This made her a little suspicious.

“How do we verify whether what you’re saying is true or false?” Lu Si stared at Liu Yue and asked.

Liu Yue didn’t find Lu Si’s question strange. If Lu Si and Mei Shu believed him based solely on a few words from him, then he wouldn’t have approached them in the first place.

Without saying anything, Liu Yue simply opened his phone and handed it to the two.

There was only one photo in the album, a screenshot of a WeChat conversation with just a few lines of text.

Ling: Find Li Gen, he can help you.

Ruanruan: Okay.

There was only one set of dialogue, a few words that didn’t reveal much.

However, Mei Shu and Lu Si immediately grasped the key point. They exchanged a glance.

Liu Yue said, “You can have Captain Liu investigate this person now.”

Lu Si nodded. “I’ve agreed to your request. When will you give me the recording?”

“After my wife and children leave the country,” Liu Yue said.

Mei Shu still didn’t quite understand Liu Yue. She opened her mouth to ask but ultimately didn’t. She felt that asking would be giving Liu Yue an idea.

Liu Yue was also smart. Seeing Mei Shu’s expression, he smiled bitterly and said, “Mei Zong, are you thinking why, since I approached you and Master Si, didn’t I ask you to send me out of the country as well?”

Mei Shu coughed lightly and even subconsciously wanted to touch her nose.

“Mei Zong hasn’t experienced my kind of life, so she may not understand how difficult it is to live in hiding. I’ve been hiding for many years and don’t want to hide anymore,” Liu Yue said.

“You can tell Captain Liu about this Li Gen person and let him investigate to confirm whether I’m lying or not. President Mei, you’ve heard the recording, and if Master Si doesn’t believe it, you can find someone to verify its authenticity,” Liu Yue said.

Before confirming that Liu Yue was telling the truth, neither of them dared to fully believe him. Liu Yue did seem sincere, though, and played the recording for Lu Si again.

Although Mei Shu had already heard the recording’s contents from Mei Shu’s description, actually hearing it was another matter.

No one could see it, but Lu Si’s hand resting on his knee under the table was bulging with blue veins.

Mei Shu glanced at Lu Si, who showed no expression on his face, no anger, no sadness, nothing at all.

But she knew that Lu Si wasn’t feeling good right now. He was always good at disguising himself.

Listening to the recording, Lu Si couldn’t describe his feelings. He just felt a bit empty. Just then, a soft hand covered his, giving it a gentle squeeze.

Lu Si snapped out of his emotions and turned to smile at Mei Shu.
