“So you think the same.” Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on her lips. “Go help me investigate this Liu Yue. See if he’s really incompetent or if there’s some other unspeakable reason behind it.”

Tang Mei immediately understood. “Alright, President Mei, I’ll do it now.”

“Wait.” Mei Shu furrowed her brow, calling the person back with a wry smile.

Tang Mei asked in confusion, “President Mei, do you have any other instructions?”

Mei Shu raised her wrist, pointing at her watch. “It’s lunchtime now.”

Tang Mei suddenly realized, “President Mei, I’ll go and order your lunch right away!”

“Hold on!” Mei Shu burst into laughter, shaking her head helplessly. “I meant for you to hurry up and have lunch. I have an appointment for lunch, so I won’t be eating in the office.”

Tang Mei thought Mei Shu was going to have lunch with Master Si, so she didn’t ask further.

Mei Shu had her driver take her to the reserved private room at the restaurant. After the waiter personally opened the door for her, she saw the tired face of the man inside.

Mei Shu closed the door firmly behind her, walking expressionlessly to the table. “Didn’t expect you to get out of prison so soon.”

The man sitting in front of her had stubble all over his face, his shabby suit hanging loosely on him. Only his eyes behind the glasses still retained some of their former sharpness.

Song Yan said, “President Mei, it’s thanks to you that I’m here today. What happened to your leg?”

Mei Shu scoffed, curling her lips. “None of your business. If you’re here to argue, I’m not interested. I’m busy, so there’s no need for us to meet again.” “Wait!” Song Yan quickly stood up to stop her. “You’ve misunderstood. I didn’t come to argue with you this time.”

Mei Shu paused, turning slowly. “You managed to get out of prison so quickly. You must have used a lot of connections and money, right?”

Song Yan smiled bitterly. “All my savings from over a decade went into it, but it’s the retribution I deserve.”

Mei Shu stood still.

Song Yan gestured with his hand, “President Mei, after I was released from prison, I deliberately came to find you. I have another request for you to agree to.”

Mei Shu sat back at the table, pouring herself a glass of cold tea to drive away the summer heat. “What is it? Speak up, whether I agree depends on my mood.”

“Since the last time you taught me a lesson, I deeply felt the guilt,” Song Yan said. “After I was released from prison, I went to see Zhang Yue and Wen Miao. Only then did I realize how crazy I was back then just to help Shen Yuan. I actually had the heart to hurt innocent girls!”

“You went to see Zhang Yue and Wen Miao?” Mei Shu’s anger flared up.

Song Yan suddenly remembered the fear of being brutally beaten by Mei Shu in the shabby house that day, trembling as he explained, “Rest assured, I just secretly watched them from a distance, without directly contacting them!”

Mei Shu’s expression softened, “What happened back then wasn’t entirely your fault. You just instructed those hooligans to threaten Wen Miao, but you didn’t expect one of them to suddenly have evil intentions and harm the innocent Zhang Yue. So the one truly responsible for the heinous crime isn’t you. But even so, I won’t forgive you.”

Song Yan felt a glimmer of hope when he heard the first half of her words, but it was quickly extinguished by Mei Shu’s ruthless rejection.

He hung his head dejectedly. “President Mei, I know it’s outrageous to say this at this time, but I really have no other choice. I’ve been to prison, and no company dares to hire me. But I really can’t be without a job!”

Mei Shu wasn’t surprised by his proposal at all, she had already thought about it before coming here.

She calmly sipped her tea, ignoring the hope in his eyes.

Song Yan became anxious, “President Mei, you know my capabilities! I’m good at dealing with things that can’t be handled openly. I know your company is facing a crisis, and I can help you with public relations, completely solving your problem!”

“I’ve seen the hot topics online, although I don’t know the inside story, I can guess that the Ruan family is trying to target you by deliberately creating that accident! I beg you to give me a chance. I will give you a satisfactory answer.” Mei Shu put down her tea cup, unmoved. “Regarding this matter, the head of my company’s PR department has already come up with a solution. Since you’ve found out so much, you should also know that my company was recently audited by the tax bureau. He wants to take this opportunity to release the tax bureau’s investigation results, not only to clear our company of tax evasion rumors but also to implicate the Ruan family.”

“President Mei, you must not do this!” Song Yan immediately objected. “By doing this, you’re undoubtedly helping the Ruan family. If they can ultimately clear their suspicions, it’s one thing, but if not, our company will be dragged back into the whirlpool of rumors!”

Mei Shu smiled with interest. “Go on.”

Song Yan’s eyes lit up, seizing the opportunity to continue, “President Mei, think carefully. You were anonymously reported and the tax bureau actually mobilized personnel to investigate. It shows that the person who reported you must have some evidence. Now, without even figuring out the identity of the informant, you’re getting involved in another company’s troubles. It’s very likely that you’ll become a scapegoat!”
