Huo Er gritted his teeth and cursed, "This old thing, he's really pushing it too far..."
Ming Mei didn't speak. At this point, it seemed like there was no way forward.
Suddenly, Ming Mei didn't know what to do. She didn't want to see Kang Chen being pressured and also didn't want him to keep compromising his principles over and over again.
Suddenly, there was a noise from inside. Huo Er quickly got up, "It seems Mr. Chen has woken up, Young Madam you..."
Before he could finish, Ming Mei immediately stood up and hurried inside, but after taking just two steps, she stopped.
Seeing her stop, Huo Er asked softly, "Young Madam, aren't you going in?"
Ming Mei shook her head, "I'm not going in. You… you go and take care of him, and don't tell him I was here."
"Why? Didn't you come here to see Mr. Chen?"
Ming Mei looked towards the room, resisting the urge to go inside. It felt like there was a fishbone stuck in her throat, uncomfortable no matter what she did.
