Chapter 598 Visitors (2)



The last time he entered her room was when Huang Zhen trespassed at the Li family\'s house. It was an emergency situation, so he didn\'t pay attention to the room that much. Now he entered it again, his heart raced in excitement.

"Xiaoyi, you should lie down on the bed. We can talk while you are lying down."

"No, I won\'t be so rude to do that in front of my guest."

Meng Renshu\'s mood was too good; he didn\'t even mind the distant tone in her words. "But I will feel bad if I make a sick person sit for a long time to entertain the guest. Don\'t mind me, and just lie down."

Li Caiyi couldn\'t get used to this Meng Renshu. Previously, he also cared for her a lot, but the pampering meter seemed to reach the max now.

"...I will sit on the bed." In the end, Li Caiyi chose a diplomatic answer.

Meng Renshu grabbed a seat and sat beside her bed. "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I know who Gu Xue met in that clubhouse."

"Oh yeah, who is it?"

"It\'s your father. Uncle Meng Yaoshu."

The smile on Meng Renshu\'s face stiffened upon hearing that. "Are you sure about that?"

"I have evidence too. Do you want to take a look?"

Meng Renshu lowered his gaze before shaking his head. "No. If you are the one who says it, then it must be true."

He believed her quite easily. Li Caiyi was prepared to hear some rebuttal, but he acted differently than she had imagined.

Looking at his crestfallen face, Li Caiyi assumed he also understood the implication of this and felt sorry for him.

It would be better if she could console him by saying this was probably a misunderstanding. However, she knew best what Meng Yaoshu was capable of. Aiding illegal research using living humans as test subjects was possible for him.

"Brother Renshu, I hope I was wrong too, but that person was Uncle Meng. If our suspicion is correct, you probably have to fight against him in the future. And every action we took against him would probably implicate you and your family too."

Meng Pharmaceutical was a family business. It was inherited from a father to his son since it was first established. Making an attack on Meng Yaoshu was basically attacking the whole Meng family and their business. It meant that Meng Renshu wouldn\'t leave unscratched either.

"I know. I don\'t want to believe it, either. Suppose my father was really behind all this. In that case, there is a possibility that I have unknowingly helped him in our previous life too. Then, didn\'t it make me his accomplice too? I helped him and cornered your family."

"That\'s…" Li Caiyi didn\'t know what to say.

"Don\'t worry. I have no intention of letting a criminal roam free. Even if that person is my own father."

Meng Renshu said that, but Li Caiyi could tell he was forcing himself. Meng Yaoshu was ruthless, but he was a good father figure for Meng Renshu. Li Caiyi knew how much he looked up to him.

"Brother Renshu, it pains me to say this, but I won\'t back down no matter who my opponent is. I want to save Xiaohua from having the same fate in her previous life."

Li Caiyi felt terrible for him, but business was business. She and Meng Renshu were partners, so she needed to clarify her intention.

Meng Renshu didn\'t answer immediately. He could sense her determination from her words. It was her way of telling him that she wouldn\'t hesitate to make him her enemy if he decided to side with his father.

He felt complicated inside. A part of him felt depressed, but at the same time, he was also very proud of her.

"I understand. I will be on your side throughout this. If my father really is guilty, then I want to be the one to stop him. Besides, this is the least I can do to atone for what my family had done to you in our previous life."

"Will you really be fine with that?" Li Caiyi asked hesitantly.

"Fine or not. This is something I must do." Meng Renshu smiled. "If you suspect me of leaking the progress of our investigation to my father secretly, should we do this separately then?"

Li Caiyi wouldn\'t lie. She did have that kind of thought.

However, she knew Meng Yaoshu wasn\'t someone they could beat half-assedly. They needed a proper plan after gathering a lot of information beforehand. And the one who had the most access to their opponent was Meng Renshu.

If they moved separately, she would be the one at a disadvantage.

"No need. Let\'s keep doing this the way we are. I believe you also don\'t want anything to happen to Xiaohua."

"Thanks for believing in me. You are right. I don\'t want Xiaohua to suffer," Meng Renshu paused briefly and stared at her deeply. "But I also can\'t leave you alone. You are too reckless, and I must stop you from doing something you will regret later."

Li Caiyi could tell he was sincere through his words. It was touching to know that Meng Renshu still decided to help her, despite knowing how detrimental it was for himself and his family.

She felt so much lighter, like a rock had just been lifted from her back. At least she had one problem solved at hand.

Flashing a relieved and grateful smile, Li Caiyi spoke softly, "Thank you, Brother Renshu. It means a lot to know I can trust you like this."

Meng Renshu was taken by that beautiful smile. Honestly, he didn\'t know whether his decision was correct or not.

He should be defending his family right now, but when he thought it would make him stand on a different side with Li Caiyi, and he probably had to hurt her again in this life, unbearable distress weighed down his heart.

Meng Renshu couldn\'t bear to do that.

Besides, his conscience wouldn\'t allow him to help in a criminal act as well, so there was that.

The matter was resolved, yet both were suddenly at a loss for words. They seemed to have a lot of thoughts running through their minds.

A knock on the door snapped them from their daze.

Li Junjie opened the door. Feeling the weird atmosphere in the air, he eyed them for a moment before saying, "Xiaoyi, you have another guest."
