Mei Shu understood and smiled, “Thank you for helping me so wholeheartedly.”
“Then thank me sincerely.” Lu Si held the phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The fatigue from a busy day disappeared the moment he heard her voice.
“I know. Do you want to have dinner to thank you?” Mei Shu thought for a moment and said, “But just having dinner might seem insincere.”
“What else do you want to do to thank me?” Lu Si was in a good mood.
Mei Shu smiled and said, “Once this matter is resolved, i will prepare a special gift for you. You can look forward to it!”
“Sure, I’ll look forward to it.”
“Master Si, there’s a document that requires your immediate signature.”
The voice of Jiang He interrupted from the phone at an inappropriate time.
Mei Shu quickly said, “You go ahead and attend to your work. I won’t disturb you. We can contact each other when we have time.”
Without waiting for Lu Si to respond, she hung up, fearing that her own affairs would disrupt his work.
Lu Si had already helped her a lot in this matter. She was really embarrassed to continue to occupy his work time.
On the other side.
After hearing a few busy signals from her phone, Lu Si expressionlessly put his phone down and stared at Jiang He, who had no sense of timing.
Jiang He felt his scalp tingle and hurriedly explained, “Master Si, this document is really urgent, that’s why 1 forgot to knock and just came in…”
Lu Si coldly snorted and said, “Give it to me. Let me take a look.”
He had an imposing manner that seemed like he would fire Jiang He if the document wasn’t urgent enough.
Jiang He had no choice but to hand over the document, secretly praying that Lu Si wouldn’t vent his frustrations on him.
With the recording in hand, Mei Shu sent a message to Shen Nian, asking her to meet at a nearby coffee shop.
Shen Nian readily agreed and soon drove there herself.
The two of them sat down in a corner booth.
Shen Nian took off her sunglasses and looked at Mei Shu with a puzzled expression. “Why didn’t you choose a more expensive venue where we wouldn’t have to worry about eavesdropping when we talk?”
“It’s a waste of money.” Mei Shu replied candidly.
Sheng Nian was dumbfounded.
The dignified eldest daughter of the Mei family actually said that she had no money?
Was she abused in the Mei family or something?
“Why are you looking at me like that? The cakes at this place are really delicious. Do you want to try one?” Mei Shu recommended the dessert without thinking there was anything wrong with her previous statement and started promoting the sweets enthusiastically.
For her, cost-effectiveness was the top priority. Expensive things weren’t necessarily better.
Mei Shu didn’t think the food at the high-end club that Lu Si had taken her to was exceptionally good.
“Okay.” Shen Nian reluctantly agreed to her suggestion, ordering a cup of coffee and two desserts. Then she turned to Mei Shu and asked, “So, why did you invite me here so quickly? What did you find?”
“I’ve found something that will completely change your perception. You need to be mentally prepared,” Mei Shu said solemnly as she retrieved the recording from her phone and placed it on the table. However, she didn’t rush to press the play button.
Shen Nian turned pale and asked, “What’s going on?”
“I think you’re not prepared yet,” Mei Shu said earnestly, “The contents of this recording may make you feel like your world is collapsing. I’m not exaggerating. This is true. As your partner, I hope you can adjust your mindset in advance and not lose control later.”
“Is it really that exaggerated?” Shen Nian clearly didn’t believe it. However, when she saw that Mei Shu wasn’t joking, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. “Can you tell me in advance what it’s about?”
“It’s about your father, Shen Quan,” Mei Shu said seriously.
Shen Nian’s face turned pale, and a terrifying guess suddenly popped into her mind. She managed to suppress her panic after a moment, but she still felt a bit uneasy. “Let’s get started. I can handle it.”
“Alright.” Mei Shu handed her another earphone and decisively pressed the play button. A voice filled with surprise suddenly sounded in Shen Nian’s ear.
“Quan, are you telling the truth? Are you really willing to divorce your wife and marry me?”
“Now that such a thing has happened, 1 won’t be irresponsible to you. But you have to give me time. 1 need to find the right opportunity to confess to my wife first.”
Upon hearing these words, Shen Nian trembled uncontrollably.
That was her father’s voice.
Although it sounded much younger than Shen Quan’s current voice, Shen Nian was convinced that it was something he had said in person.
He was actually having an affair outside and planning to divorce her mother?
Before she could think too much, the woman’s voice came through the phone again. “Okay, 1 can wait for you, Quan. As long as you keep your promise to give me a home, 1’11 divorce immediately. Then we can be together as a family of three.”
“Okay, wait for my message.” Shen Quan’s voice sounded somewhat weary.
After he said that, he decisively hung up the phone.
The recording abruptly ended.
But Shen Nian’s tears flowed uncontrollably, and she quickly became a tearful mess..
