Chapter 1742 Is My Father Not Doing Well?
Meng Han genuinely didn't know. Meng Qi had told her after he returned that Uncle Meng had been rescued, but the escort agency was still not very safe, so they would stay outside until everything was settled before returning.
He didn't tell Meng Han that her uncle was seriously injured and recuperating, so as not to make Meng Han worry and want to go see him.
Meng Qi himself almost couldn't bear to see his uncle's state, let alone Meng Han. He didn't want Meng Han to worry, so he only said that the person had been rescued.
As for Tao Shi and Tao Qin, Meng Qi probably still harbored some resentment and anger towards them, so he didn't tell them.
After Meng Pei and Meng Yunzheng returned, they were busy and had no time to talk to Tao about this matter alone.
Therefore, ever since Tao saw the others return but never saw her husband, she had been filled with anxiety.
Shu Yu felt that she deserved it. If she hadn't insisted on going out to rescue Jiang Kuanyu with Tao Qin, Uncle Meng would still be staying in the secret room and wouldn't have suffered so much.
Jiang Kuanyu tied him up there and tortured him for two days, almost killing him.
Just as she was thinking this, Tao's voice came from inside again, "Fine, if you won't tell me, I'll go find your brother, find your cousin, someone will eventually tell me."
Tao seemed about to come out, but Meng Han grabbed her and stopped her, her voice even colder than before, "Mother, can you shut up? My brother and cousin haven't had a rest for days because of saving Father. They finally managed to get some sleep, and you're going to bother them? Mother, it's one thing if you can't help in other areas, but at this critical moment you're adding to the chaos. Do you even have a heart?"
"Ahan!! I'm your mother, how dare you talk to me like that, you, you..."
"Are you my mother? For so many years, I've always thought you were Tao Qin's mother."
"I..." When Tao Qin was mentioned, Tao's voice weakened, perhaps because she felt a little guilty.
Meng Han took a deep breath. "Mother, just stay here and rest. My brother and the others care about Father more than you do. If you disturb their rest at this time, not only me, but Father and all the uncles and elders in this escort agency will not forgive you. I need to go help in the kitchen, so I'll be going now."
Meng Han was not willing to talk to Tao Shi anymore. After she finished speaking, she left without waiting for Tao Shi's reaction.
However, as soon as the door was opened, Shu Yu was standing in the doorway.
Tao was about to catch up when she saw Shu Yu and immediately stopped.
For some reason, she is now somewhat afraid of Shu Yu.
It seems that no one is truly on her side now. Her son and daughter have turned their backs on her, and her husband is missing. Even though she is the mistress of the escort agency, she now acts like an outsider and has to be afraid of Shu Yu.
Meng Han glanced back and closed the door. "Sister Shuyu, you're up so early."
Shu Yu nodded. "I need to go out for a bit."
She acted as if she hadn't heard anything and was just passing by, and walked on very naturally.
After walking only a few steps, Meng Han caught up with her, "Sister Shuyu."
"What's wrong? Is there something else?"
Meng Han pursed her lips, hesitated, and then asked in a low voice, "Sister Shuyu, has something happened to my father? When my brother came back, he didn't look well, but when I asked him, he wouldn't say anything. I... I think my father might be... not doing well."
