“This matter is of great significance.” Mei Shu didn’t rush to make her point, instead, she planned to secure a promise from her. “Miss Sheng, what I’m about to say may provoke your anger, so I hope that no matter what, you will listen to me attentively. You must not interrupt me halfway or have me thrown out.”

Hearing this, Miss Sheng’s eyes flickered with disbelief.

She exchanged a quick glance with the butler before nodding. “Alright, I promise. Go ahead and say what you want.”

“That’s good.” Mei Shu lowered her gaze and, amidst their surprised looks, slowly said, “I’m going to talk about the car accident that happened on Pan Mountain Road six years ago.”

“What are you talking about?” Miss Sheng stood up in disbelief and momentarily abandoned her noble demeanor. Her eyes were filled with unshakeable shock. “Why are you bringing that up? Do you know what that incident means to our Sheng family?”

Six years ago, the car accident on Pan Mountain Road not only claimed the life of Mei Shu’s mother, Bai Ling, but it also resulted in the death of Miss Sheng’s mother.

According to the police investigation, Miss Sheng’s mother suffered a heart attack due to the shock of witnessing the entire accident and, because the hospital was too far away, she tragically passed away due to the delayed treatment.

It could be considered an indirect tragedy caused by Bai Ling.

However, Mei Shu had to revisit this old matter, reopening old wounds. This was because the only eyewitness to the truth back then was Sheng Quan, who was in the same car as Miss Sheng’s mother.

“I know that bringing up this matter will make you very uncomfortable, but, Miss Sheng, 1 hope you can understand that the victims back then were not only from the Sheng family but also affected my Mei family.”

“Affected? Affected by whom?” Miss Sheng took a step down from the stage, her noble demeanor now gone. She came up to Mei Shu and grabbed her collar. “I’m asking you, who is responsible for my mother’s death?”

“No one intended to harm your mother, but my mother’s death indirectly led to the demise of Mrs. Sheng. You shouldn’t place the blame on the Mei family; instead, you should hate the person responsible for my mother’s death.” Mei Shu stared into her eyes, not letting any trace of emotion escape.

The two of them locked eyes for a long time, standing still for a few breaths. In the end, it was Miss Sheng who backed down first.

She suddenly released her grip and let out a deep sigh. “My mother’s death was an accident. I shouldn’t harbor ill feelings towards anyone. I don’t want to get involved in the matters of the Mei family. You can leave.”

“But your father is the only eyewitness,” Mei Shu didn’t want to leave so easily and held onto her wrist, applying more pressure. “I want to know all the details of what happened that year. Not a single detail should be left out.”

“My father won’t be willing to tell you. For so many years, my mother’s death has always been the deepest wound in his heart. He won’t allow anyone to bring up the past in front of him.” Miss Sheng looked at her with determination. “I’ll give you a pass on today’s matter because you helped me find evidence of Lu Ming’s affair. I’ll pretend I never met you today. Now, please leave.”

“Miss Sheng, if it weren’t for that car accident back then, your mother wouldn’t have died. Don’t you want to find out who is responsible for the innocent lives affected by it?”

Mei Shu squeezed her wrist and gradually increased the force. “I was only a child at the time, and after my mother’s death, my father remarried and I was sent to the countryside. I only returned recently. Back then, we were all so young, and we couldn’t investigate. It’s understandable, but do we really want to turn a blind eye to their deaths now?”

Tears welled up in Miss Sheng’s eyes. For so many years, her mother had never faded from her memories.

Recently, she often dreamed of her mother and remembered the osmanthus candy her mother used to make for her. Each memory was as sweet as it was heart-wrenching.

Then, the final scene in the dream was a horrifying one.

Everywhere was painted in bright red. The cacophonous sound of footsteps echoed from all sides, countless people passing by her, yet none of them saw her.

Then, a woman covered in a white sheet was carried out of the car by a doctor. As the stretcher passed by, a gust of wind lifted a corner of the sheet.

Miss Sheng could clearly see that it was her mother’s face.

But on that face, there was no longer a warm smile; only a deathly pale countenance.

“Leave, my father will be back soon, and he doesn’t want to see anyone from the Mei family. If he sees you, it won’t end well for you.” Miss Sheng turned her back, wiping away her tears and starting to drive Mei Shu away.

Mei Shu furrowed her brow in confusion. “Do you really not want to seek the truth and get justice for your mother?”

“I’ve told you, my mother’s death was an unexpected heart attack. It’s nobody’s fault. Now, go!”

Sheng Nian asserted firmly, leaving no room for negotiation.

With no choice, Mei Shu could only temporarily give up and look for another solution.

But just as she was about to be escorted out of the living room by the butler, a voice from the servants outside reached them, “Mr. Sheng has returned, and Miss Sheng is meeting a guest inside!”

Miss Sheng’s face turned pale immediately. She hurriedly took Mei Shu’s hand and rushed upstairs, hastily shoving her into her room..
