Setting Up

"Grandma, is there something you've forgotten?" Mei Shu said casually, "That hairpin wasn't stolen by me. You gave it to me willingly to express your gratitude for saving your life."

The old lady's face turned pale, and she seemed hesitant.

Mei Shu sarcastically remarked, "It's one thing to deceive others with those words, but how did you manage to deceive yourself?"

The elderly lady clenched her fists on her lap and said hesitantly, "I said these words for your own good. You can't beat Yuanyuan. Give up on Lu Si as soon as possible. It's good for both you and the Mei family."

"It seems like you're quite familiar with Lu Si's grandfather?" Mei Shu ignored her words and turned the conversation to another matter.

Her topic changed too quickly for the old lady to catch up. Without much thought, she quickly answered, "Yes, when I was young, my husband and I were good friends with Lu Ting."
