Wang Jingtao suppressed his impatience and said to Su Meifang, word by word, "Meifang, I told you yesterday that my grandfather already knows about you. He gave me a strict order not to get involved in this matter and is strongly against our relationship. I can't do anything about it. My grandfather is so old. You should go with your brother first."

Although Wang Jingtao implied that he had no choice in the matter, Su Meifang knew exactly what he meant.

"Brother Jingtao, I did this all for you..."

"Meifang!!" Wang Jingtao interrupted Su Meifang.

"You yourself disregarded the law and committed such an heinous crime, and now you want to implicate me? I've never even met your brother and sister-in-law, what does that have to do with me? You'd better think carefully before you speak..."

"Given the heinous crimes you've committed, even if I were to hand you over to the police station, they'd still praise me for my heroic act. What a huge risk I took in you! Don't give me a taste of what they say about the farmer and the snake!"

Hearing Wang Jingtao completely absolve himself of any responsibility while his words carried a hint of threat, Su Chang'an quickly stepped forward and grabbed Su Meifang's arm.

"Meifang, stop talking and come with me."

Su Meifang seemed to only recognize Wang Jingtao at this moment, her eyes filled with disappointment. All her strength seemed to have been drained, and she was dragged out by Su Chang'an, completely listless.

"Wait a minute," Wang Jingtao said.

Su Meifang's eyes lit up, and she turned around with hope in her eyes, "Brother Jingtao."

Wang Jingtao picked up a headscarf hanging on the door and handed it to the two of them, saying, "Put this on."

Su Chang'an clenched his fist, took the headscarf from Wang Jingtao's hand, and said with a cold face, "Thank you."

Just then, a commotion arose outside the door. "Right here, officer!"
