Sheng Nian stared at her with suspicion for a moment. Soon after, they heard the sound of the door handle being turned at the entrance.
Sheng Nian propped up her upper body to look outside. However, before she could adjust to the darkness at the door, a warm hand suddenly covered her eyes.
Then, that hand applied more pressure, forcefully pushing her head back onto the pillow.
Sheng Nian was about to say something when Mei Shu moved her arm down to Sheng Nian’s waist and gently pinched the soft flesh there.
Sheng Nian:”…” She really wanted to give this girl a good slap!
BoxNovel.comHowever, she chose to obey Mei Shu’s instructions for the time being and closed her eyes obediently.
There was a carpet on a section of the floor near the room’s entrance, so Sheng Quan’s steps on it wouldn’t make any noise.
However, Mei Shu still detected the faintest, almost imperceptible sound.
As Sheng Quan drew closer, Mei Shu’s hand on Sheng Nian’s waist kept tightening.
Unknowingly, Sheng Nian became somewhat nervous, and her tightly closed eyes began to tremble.
It seemed that Mei Shu had sensed the tension in the person beside her. She gently moved the hand on Sheng Nian’s waist and gave her back a gentle pat.
In an instant, Sheng Nian tensed up, and all her attention was drawn to that hand. She even momentarily forgot about Sheng Quan suddenly entering the room.
Footsteps could be heard in the room again, and this time, Sheng Quan stopped right above Mei Shu’s head.
He bent down, carefully examining Mei Shu’s face, but he didn’t detect anything unusual.
On the bed, the two young girls slept peacefully side by side, and a faint blush even appeared on Sheng Nian’s cheeks.
Sheng Quan couldn’t help but glance at them for a moment, reaching out to smooth down the loose strands of hair covering his daughter’s face. Only then did he straighten up and exit the room.
But neither of the two girls in the room made any movements.
Originally, Sheng Nian had wanted to question Mei Shu, but Mei Shu pinched her waist again. She quickly realized something and obediently kept her mouth shut.
After a while, the room’s door was opened once more, and this time, footsteps could be heard at the door.
When the door was securely closed again, Mei Shu finally lifted her eyelids.
Beneath her long eyelashes were a pair of icy-cold eyes that were brewing a storm.
Sheng Nian hadn’t received any signal from Mei Shu that it was okay to open her eyes, so she impatiently shifted her waist.
Mei Shu snapped out of her thoughts and realized that the person in front of her was still pretending to be asleep. She couldn’t help but suppress a chuckle.
She hid her amusement and suddenly had the urge to tease Sheng Nian. Once again, she touched her waist, not too lightly and not too heavily.
Sheng Nian immediately dared not move.
However, she had a feeling of being taken advantage of.
A thought flashed through Sheng Nian’s mind, and she pretended to turn over, raising her hand as if to give Mei Shu a playful punch.
But her arm was caught in mid-air. Sheng Nian’s eyes snapped open, and she stared at Mei Shu with a glare. “I was trying to help you, and you’re still teasing me?”
“Miss Sheng, I just wanted you to stay still and not disrupt my thoughts. When did I tease you?” Mei Shu replied.
“You!” Sheng Nian was so angry that she sat up, and she looked like she wanted to kick Mei Shu off the bed. “You explain right now. Where did you go in the middle of the night? Why did my father suddenly come here?”
Upon mentioning this, Mei Shu’s smile suddenly disappeared.
“Because he found out that someone had sneaked into his study just now, and he suspects that person is me.”
“Was it you or not?” Sheng Nian asked incredulously.
Under Sheng Nian’s astonished gaze, Mei Shu slowly nodded and admitted, “It was me.”
Sheng Nian’s face immediately darkened. She stared at Mei Shu intently, her voice tinged with frustration. “Do you realize that my father’s study contains confidential documents of the Sheng family? What were you here for? If you don’t explain yourself, I’ll go tell my father right now that the person who entered his study was you!”
“Don’t get worked up, Miss Sheng. I brought something back, and you might find it interesting.” Mei Shu said as she opened her phone and showed her the photo she had found earlier. “Isn’t this woman your mother?”
Sheng Nian hastily snatched the phone from her, her face turning pale. Even her hands trembled slightly. “This… This is Lu Ming’s mother! But why does my father have a picture like this with her?”
The man and woman in the photo were clearly quite young, probably only eighteen or nineteen years old. At that time, Sheng Quan and Sheng Nian’s mother probably didn’t even know each other.
“How could this be? What kind of relationship do they have?” Sheng Nian’s fingertips tightened on the phone, causing them to turn slightly pale.
Mei Shu was afraid that she would smash her phone if she lost her mind, so she quickly snatched it back from her hand and put it back in his pocket. “I don’t know what kind of relationship they have, but your father is definitely hiding some important secrets, and it seems like he’s being threatened, possibly related to your matters.”
Sheng Nian blinked her eyes, looking helpless as she turned to Mei Shu. “Is he in danger?”
“He’s not in immediate danger,” Mei Shu replied with a self-deprecating smile. “But all the secrets he has worked so hard to hide will eventually be uncovered
by someone..”
