Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!

The sound of the bedroom door open and closed came from outside.

Mei Shu took a deep breath, nervously opened the bathroom door, confirmed that Lu Si had indeed left, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

The candy on the table had been taken, and now, all that was left was for Jiang He to brief him about last night. After that, they shouldn’t have any more contact with each other.

But why did she feel a sense of loss?

Mei Shu couldn’t figure it out, and she didn’t want to dwell on it.

In this lifetime, she had so many things she wanted to do, and the thought of marrying herself off to a good man wasn’t one of them.

She wanted to enjoy life and not get entangled in another elusive love affair.

As expected, this morning, she found Sheng Nian waiting at the door as soon as she stepped outside.

She waved to Sheng Nian, bade farewell to Butler Zhao, and got into Sheng Nian’s car alone.

As soon as she got in, Sheng Nian was eager to share the latest developments with her.

“You won’t believe it, that guy was so scared when he arrived at the police station last night. He was terrified of getting involved in a lawsuit, and he even knelt down in front of my father. But in the end, he was still locked in the interrogation room by Captain Wang.”

It was quite coincidental that Captain Wang was responsible for this case.

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow. “I know Captain Wang. He’s an upright person, and no matter how many benefits Lin Wei offered him, he wouldn’t release Lu Ming.”

“Exactly,” Sheng Nian said. Speaking of that woman, Sheng Nian’s smile faded, and her face darkened. “Lin Wei Xu is indeed not easy to deal with, but she has fallen out with my father now. I can tell. There seems to be some lingering affection between them.”

The desolation in her eyes as she spoke suggested that this wasn’t easy for her.

Mei Shu changed the subject. “So, did you manage to uncover any information?”

“I did,” and that was the reason Sheng Nian couldn’t wait to see her early in the morning.

“I think they both have secrets to hide. At the police station last night, Lin Wei Xu wanted to slap my father, but the police stopped her. She looked at my father with open hatred in her eyes. Just like you guessed, Lin Wei was trying to threaten my father with something, and I have a gut feeling that it’s related to me.”

“Perhaps it’s also related to me,” Mei Shu clenched her fists involuntarily, her eyes filled with intense resentment. “At the police station last night, they might not have dared to reveal the truth. I need you to help me with something.”

“What do you need?” Sheng Nian instinctively sensed that this matter was probably not a small one and parked her car by the side of the road, looking at her quietly.

Mei Shu took a small chip from her pocket and handed it to Sheng Nian. “Insert this into your father’s phone to allow me to monitor his calls. You’re the only one who can help me with this, and it’s the simplest way.”

Of course, this was also the fundamental reason Mei Shu wanted to unite Sheng Nian with her on the same side.

Sheng Nian’s expression faltered, and she was about to refuse. “No, my father holds the entire Sheng family’s fortune, and if anything happens, it could have significant consequences. Listening to his phone could easily lead to the leak of company secrets.”

She was straightforward and cautious.

Mei Shu had anticipated this.

However, she didn’t mind. “If you don’t trust me, you wouldn’t have followed the plan 1 suggested last night. Sheng Nian, things have reached this point. You shouldn’t hesitate. 1 just want to find the truth about my mother’s death, and I’m not interested in anything else.”

“What about your father?” Sheng Nian gazed at her intensely. “Even if you don’t care about the Sheng family’s secrets, your father is the CEO of the Mei Corporation. 1 can’t be sure he won’t use the opportunity to extract the Sheng family’s secrets from you and use them against the Sheng family.”

“Sheng Nian, 1 thought we could be friends.” Mei Shu lowered her eyelids with disappointment. “We have shared experiences, but we can’t be open and honest with each other. It’s a pity. Please seriously consider this matter. The sooner, the better. Otherwise, once they’ve finished discussing everything, there won’t be any need for me to listen in.”

A trace of hesitation flashed in Sheng Nian’s eyes, but it was soon replaced by determination. “We can find another way, like me personally monitoring his phone.”

Mei Shu sneered, “For the sake of the Sheng family, you can repeatedly refuse my requests. Why should 1 believe that you won’t withhold the information again, for the sake of the Sheng family, after hearing their secrets? That would make my efforts in vain.”

“You can trust me. 1 genuinely want to help you, and I’m grateful you didn’t leave me in the dark any longer.” Sheng Nian seemed a bit impatient, as if she were anxious to make Mei Shu believe in her determination.

But it was obvious that when Sheng Nian stood on Sheng Quan’s side even without thinking, Mei Shu no longer believed her..
