Sheng Nian didn't dwell on it and was actually pleased that her father cared about her friend at a time like this. "I understand, Dad. I'll take good care of her."
"That's good," Sheng Quan said, looking relieved, and then he left.
It was only after the door closed that Mei Shu pulled the blanket from her face.
She had to admit that Sheng Quan was quite skilled in handling situations like this. If she didn't gather concrete evidence herself, it seemed that she wouldn't be able to expose his true colors.
"You heard that, right? My dad is really nice. You shouldn't doubt him," Sheng Nian said, holding Mei Shu's hand and helping her sit up on the bed.
Mei Shu smiled lightly. "For your sake, I won't easily suspect Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Nian was slightly surprised by Mei Shu's sudden change in attitude. She wasn't used to it. "Is what you're saying true, or are you just trying to comfort me?"
