Since Chen Rou said she wanted to hold a meeting on the spot, she should naturally gather people there.
There are currently 18 bodyguards on duty at Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, all on duty 24 hours a day, guarding various locations.
As soon as Mei Baoshan announced via walkie-talkie, everyone was told to evacuate their posts and come to the meeting.
While waiting, Chen Rou remained as arrogant as ever. She suddenly stepped forward, snatched the car keys from Mei Baoshan's waist, tossed them to Song Yuanchao, and gave him a look. Song Yuanchao understood and took the car keys downstairs.
It should be noted that Mei Baoshan is not only Nie Yao's uncle, but also once saved Nie Rong's life. Moreover, he has been the security captain of the Nie family for more than 20 years. But now, firstly, Nie Rong is not protecting him and letting Chen Rou, a young girl, kick him out. Secondly, Chen Rou disregards all the bodyguards and openly suspects him, even sending Song Yuanchao, a newcomer, to search his car.
If Mei Baoshan had a more impetuous temper, he would have started fighting with Chen Rou right now.
But his patience was exceptional. He looked at the butler, Uncle Ming, with a wry smile and said, "It seems Miss Chen has a lot of opinions about me."
Uncle Ming had always liked Chen Rou, but he also felt that she had gone a bit too far. He dared not disobey his master, so he could only comfort Mei Baoshan: "After all, Third Master is in trouble. This is a serious matter. The innocent will clear themselves. As long as the truth is found, that will be fine."
Mei Baoshan also smiled and said, "Yes, the innocent will remain innocent."
By this time, all the bodyguards had assembled, and he was supposed to go to his meeting, but then he suddenly remembered something and asked Uncle Ming, "By the way, Uncle Ming, did you and Ah Zhao talk about retiring at 65 the year after next?"
Twenty years ago, Mei Baoshan injured his manhood while saving Nie Rong, so he remained unmarried and childless. Uncle Ming is also about to retire. Although they are just servants and do not receive government retirement benefits, their retirement is guaranteed. Nie Rong has deposited an annuity for them in a bank in London and arranged houses for them in New Zealand. In two years, they can retire together.
When the topic of retirement came up, Uncle Ming became a little sad: "Third Master is still in a coma, so I have no heart to think about retirement."
Mei Baoshan said with a wry smile, "I don't want to think about retirement, but it seems I have to retire early. Oh well, as long as Third Master is safe, I don't care about retiring early. I'll wait for you in New Zealand."
If he weren't so sincere, Uncle Ming would actually have some doubts about him, because he is Nie Yao's maternal uncle, and although Nie Zhao is also related to him, they are from a more distant generation.
But Mei Baoshan spoke so sincerely, and they had worked together for many years without any problems. Even though Uncle Ming had seen the world and knew that people's hearts were unpredictable, he was still moved by him.
So he smiled and said, "Then you go first. I'll go over once everything is going smoothly for Third Master."
Mei Baoshan looked at Chen Rou again, and gestured, saying, "Let's go, Third Aunt, I'll formally introduce you to the bodyguards."
...
In fact, the bodyguards all knew Chen Rou, and the security authority had already been transferred to Chen Rou the moment Nie Rong bowed his head. Mei Baoshan's introduction of her was just a formality.
In the dead of night, after completing the handover and ordering the bodyguards to take their positions, Mei Baoshan was about to leave.
But just as he was about to leave, Song Yuanchao, who had just finished searching his car, called out to him.
Song Yuanchao was carrying a knife, an old-fashioned long knife. He asked Mei Baoshan, "Sir, where did you buy this knife? It looks like a good knife. May I ask how much it cost?"
Nie Han and her brother were still there. Neither of them knew anything about knives. As soon as they saw it, Nie Han blurted out, "Is this a pig-slaughtering knife?"
It was a knife about a meter long, with the words "[Xuefeng]" engraved on the hilt.
Mei Baoshan glanced at the knife and said with a smile, "This was bought for me by our former chairman of the board because he saw that I liked it."
Song Yuanchao twirled the knife, praised it as a fine knife, and prepared to return it to Mei Baoshan.
But Chen Rou snatched the knife and said, "Since he is my father-in-law, this knife belongs to my family. I'll keep it."
He immediately picked up the knife and said, "Comrade Yuanchao, I'll leave the ward to you tonight. I should go and rest."
After saying that, she picked up the knife and went back to the ward without looking back.
Her arrogant and rude attitude was unbelievable to everyone, not to mention the bodyguards, butler, secretary, and Nie Han and her brother. The bodyguards found it incredible, since security work nowadays uses various guns, and people are used to choosing daggers, which are lightweight and easy to carry, while long knives and swords are generally only used as honorary weapons.
Nie Rong gifted Mei Baoshan a long sword as a reward for his bravery, and that sword should rightfully belong to Mei Baoshan.
In their eyes, Chen Rou's forceful takeover of the knife was a bit excessive.
Adding to the fact that Chen Rou had just suddenly seized power from Mei Baoshan, the bodyguards were not quite used to it, and everyone was a little restless. Of course, with a change of leadership, it was inevitable that the security team would be a bit chaotic.
But even under these circumstances, Chen Rou actually went to rest and sleep, which even her bodyguards found unbelievable.
Of course, the entire security team was in a state of panic, and everyone was very restless.
Let's not even talk about them.
Chen Rou took a shower and went to sleep in the inner room. It was the middle of the night, and Nie Jiayu and Nie Han didn't want to go through the trouble of going home again, so they slept on the bed and the sofa respectively, and rested in the same ward.
It was already five in the morning, and the two siblings were still fast asleep when Chen Rou got up and went out.
Nie Jiayu was still fast asleep, but Nie Han was worried about her uncle and couldn't sleep soundly, so she got up and followed him out.
This was the time when the bodyguards were rotating shifts. Song Yuanchao had been running around for several days in a row and was almost at his limit. His eyelids were drooping. When he saw Chen Rou come out, he handed her the knife and gun and went to sleep.
