Shifting the Blame Unexpectedly

Building trust was a difficult task, but losing it could happen in an instant.

Sheng Nian understood that it was too late to say anything now, so she tried to salvage the situation. "I still hope you can consider this. First, my father won't be too guarded against me. If I want to listen in, it's easy. Secondly, this is the fastest way for you to know the truth."

"I think there's something you need to understand," Mei Shu said coldly, looking at her. "Perhaps in other matters, as you said, because you're the only daughter of the Sheng family, your father won't hide much from you. But don't forget, in the investigation we're conducting now, you're the last person your father would want to inform. Otherwise, why were you kept in the dark about the matters between Sheng Quan and Lin Wei for so many years?"
