“What did you say?!” Mei Shu handed the agreement to the law firm for safekeeping, then hung up the phone, and drove hurriedly to the hospital.
She had considered countless possibilities.
For example, Zhou Lin might have found out that she had come to meet Ruan Li alone today and might not trust Ruan Li, using some means to silence her completely.
Or perhaps the person who had been hiding in the background all along had secretly intervened, preventing her from achieving her goal.
But she never thought that Ruan Li would commit suicide, using it as a means to take away all the truths from back then.
It seemed that Ruan Li had guessed that she had only investigated up to this point, fearing that saying too little wouldn’t gain her trust.
Ruan Li had never intended to reveal the secret from the start.
This was also the fundamental reason why Zhou Lin was willing to let Ruan Li continue living in Wendith and willingly support her!
She cursed herself for only realizing these tricks now!
Mei Shu slammed the steering wheel fiercely, and the car emitted a piercing honk.
The man in the car in front of her stuck his head out of the window with a look of annoyance, glaring at Mei Shu’s car with a fierce expression. He said, “What are you honking for? Damn it, didn’t you see the red light? If you have the guts, just run the red light! Damn it, today’s just bad luck, unexpectedly encountering a woman driving. Women should stay home obediently. Can you women even drive properly?”
He had just finished complaining and was about to retract his head when, the next moment, the car shook violently, and his head happened to hit the window, causing him to grimace in pain, followed by a loud crash from behind the car.
The man stared dumbfoundedly at the shattered rear of his car, rubbing his head in pain, then got out of the car angrily, “Damn it, are you crazy?”
Mei Shu looked at him expressionlessly, “Good dogs don’t block the way.”
With that said, she pressed the accelerator again, ramming off the car in front and ignoring the red light, driving away directly, leaving the man behind choking on the exhaust fumes.
lie coughed violently, took out his phone intending to call the police, and even thought about taking advantage of the situation to record a video and post it online, letting everyone see the true face of a female driver.
However, just as he was about to dial the police number, a fair hand suddenly covered his screen.
lie raised his head to meet a pair of deep black eyes, his arrogant demeanor somewhat subdued, “Who are you? 1 warn you, don’t interfere with my business! I need to call the police immediately!”
Wearing gold-framed glasses, the seemingly gentle secretary smiled and removed his hand, handing him a bank card, “If you agree to settle it privately, the money in here is yours. Call a tow truck to repair your car or buy a new one. Forget about what just happened.”
The man pinched the bank card in his hand, his neck stiff, “How do I know if you’re trying to trick me? Is there even any money in this card?”
The secretary turned slightly, revealing another well-dressed man in the car behind him, and said slowly, “Now do you believe me?”
“Yes, yes, I believe you! Thank you, Mr. Zhou! I’ll leave now!” With that, the man quickly pocketed the bank card, got back into his car, started the car, and then left directly, without even a second’s delay.
The secretary returned to the passenger seat, looking at the man in the back seat, “Mr. Zhou, should we still go to the hospital now? Miss Mei Shu should have arrived.”
Zhou Lin’s fingertips on the armrest moved slightly, a cunning smile curling up at the corner of his mouth, “No need to go. Ruan Li hasn’t betrayed me. Let’s go back.”
“Understood.” The secretary immediately instructed the driver to change the route, heading in the completely opposite direction of Mei Shu’s car.
In the hospital.
Mei Shu rushed to the operating room, and Jiang Hai stood guiltily against the wall.
“How is she? Any news?” Mei Shu asked anxiously without delay.
Jiang Hai stood up straight, shook his head, “No news yet.”
“What exactly happened?” Mei Shu calmed down and asked carefully, “Are you sure she committed suicide and that no one murdered her?”
Jiang Hai’s voice was hoarse, “I’m sure. Ms. Ruan said she wanted to go to the bathroom, and 1 couldn’t follow her in. When 1 realized something was wrong after ten minutes and went in to check, 1 saw her lying in a pool of blood.”
Mei Shu let out a sigh of relief, rested her head on her hand, and sat down in the chair, her face full of exhaustion, “This isn’t your fault. It’s because I didn’t consider it carefully. I should have had a female accompany you to watch over her.”
Jiang Hai still couldn’t hide his self-blame. He clenched his fists and suddenly lowered his head, “I’m sorry. I’ve messed up things between you and Master Si. If Ms. Ruan really can’t wake up again, I will apologize with my life and won’t continue to cause trouble for you and Master Si!”
“Enough!” Mei Shu interrupted him, her eyebrows showing a hint of anger, “I said this isn’t your fault. It’s because I didn’t think through the interests involved. Ruan Li had planned to do this from the beginning. She never wanted the Mei Group. She just wanted to distract me first and then end it all.”
“What should we do next?” Jiang Hai hesitated and raised his head, “Miss Mei Shu, do we really need to continue investigating?”
