Mr. Rong, please stay. Miss Sang doesn't want to be a widow.

Ming Zhan smiled bitterly, "Brother, there is no possibility between her and me."

Ming Xiao felt as if a stone had been dropped into his heart, causing water to splash everywhere. His face remained calm, "How do you know it's impossible?"

Ming Zhan said, "Brother, what do you think of her relationship with Rong Zhi?"

Ming Xiao was slightly startled, with a flicker of astonishment in his eyes, "Isn't Rong Zhi going to marry Ming Mei?"

Ming Zhan let out a sneer, "Rong Zhi is already the head of the Rong family, how could he possibly marry a woman like her?"

Ming Xiao's expression was serious. "You mean, he's just using Ming Mei."

Ming Zhan took a deep breath, holding the porcelain bowl in both hands, his eyes dark. "I don't know who is using whom. But I know that he has absolutely no feelings for her. The person in his heart..."

Ming Xiao had long seen through Rong Zhi's feelings for Sang Yuwan, but he didn't expect that even Ming Zhan could see it.

It is so obvious that it is not a good thing for Sang Yuwan.

Ming Zhan took a deep breath and calmed down, "Brother, it's not hot anymore."

Ming Xiao reached out, took the nutritious porridge he handed over, took the spoon, and ate it elegantly.

Ming Zhan sat aside and said nothing more.

knock --

There was a knock on the door.

Ming Zhan just thought that the doctor came to check on him, so he hurriedly got up and opened the door of the ward.

"Second brother..."

Standing at the door was a girl wearing sunglasses and a black mask.

When she saw Ming Zhan, she greeted him in a wronged manner.

Ming Zhan's expression suddenly changed, his face turned cold, "Get out of here."

Mingmei sniffed, lowered her head, and wrung her hands. "Second brother, I know I was wrong. Please let me go in and see my eldest brother. I want to apologize to him in person."

"No need." Ming Zhan's chest rose and fell, his lips turned cold, "If you don't leave now, I'll call for help."

Mingmei's twisted fingers trembled slightly, and she slowly took off her sunglasses.

There was a bruise at the corner of his left eye, as if he had been punched.

Ming Zhan's pupils shrank slightly, and he sneered, "A self-torture trick? Ha. No tricks will work on me."

Mingmei's eyelashes trembled, and she pursed her lips, about to cry, "Second brother, I really know I was wrong. Please give me a chance to correct my mistakes and let me see my eldest brother."

After saying that, she walked in regardless of everything.

Ming Zhan reached out to stop her, glaring at her coldly, "Ming Mei, from childhood to adulthood, haven't you done enough wrong things? Have you ever changed for the better?"

Mingmei froze, her face flushed red.

Ming Zhan's eyes grew darker, like a bottle of spilled ink, a thick black color spreading. He took a deep breath and scolded again in a cold voice, "If you don't leave now, you'll be in trouble."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the bodyguard at the door and said, "Take the fourth lady away."

"Yes." The Ming family's bodyguard immediately stepped forward and pretended to grab Mingmei's arm.

Mingmei hurriedly put on her sunglasses and bit her lip hard. She whispered, "Brother, I know a secret of Sister Wan. Do you want to know?"

Ming Zhan's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of sharpness in them. "What did you do to her?"

Mingmei's voice became lower and lower, so that only the two of them could hear clearly, "Second brother, you should ask her what she did to me?"

Ming Zhan still lost his patience, frowned, and shouted angrily, "Even if she wants to send you to jail now, I don't think it's too much."

"Second brother, I am your cousin after all, you..." Mingmei's throat tightened with anger.

Ming Zhan's patience ran out, and he said coldly to the bodyguard, "Take him away."

"Wait." Ming Xiao's voice came over.

Ming Zhan turned his head and looked over.

I don't know when, Ming Xiao got out of bed.

Ming Zhan hurried to his side, held him, and said worriedly, "Brother, lie down quickly."

Ming Xiao stood still. He looked at Ming Mei, his face pale and bloodless. "Let her in."

Ming Zhan frowned, "Brother, she..."

Ming Xiao interrupted him, "I'm already like this, what else can I do?"

Ming Zhan's chest heaved, and he said helplessly, "Lie down first."

Ming Xiao nodded.

Ming Zhan waited until he lay down before letting Ming Mei in.

He closed the door of the ward and warned her angrily, "If you dare to do anything stupid again, I will make you live a life worse than death."

Mingmei took off her sunglasses again and curled her lips, "Second brother, I came here sincerely to apologize to the eldest brother."

"Kneel down!" Ming Zhan raised his voice and suddenly issued a rebuke.

Mingmei's body trembled, her knees softened, and she was about to kneel down.

Ming Xiao hurriedly said, "Stand still."

Mingmei was startled and pursed her lips.

Ming Zhan frowned, "Brother, she came to apologize to you."

"I'm not dead yet, there's no need to kneel down." Ming Xiao's voice was a little weak, but every word was weighty.

Ming Zhan's face darkened as he pulled out a chair and sat down.

Seeing this, Mingmei pressed her fingertips hard against her palms, forcing a few tears out. She looked filled with regret, "Brother, I really didn't know it would be like this... If I had known, I would never have agreed to Rong Zhi, even if I died..."

Ming Zhan's heart trembled when he heard this, and his eyes turned cold. "Such a good branch, how could you not climb it?"

Ming Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, "You mean, the person who really wants Haitang Garden is Rong Zhi."

Ming Zhan was shocked and stared at Ming Mei in disbelief.

Mingmei exerted more and more force, her fingertips almost piercing her palm. Tears suddenly rolled down her face like pearls from a broken string.

Ming Zhan's anger intensified, and he said impatiently, "Stop acting. Tell me quickly. Is what Big Brother said true?"

Mingmei nodded with tears in her eyes.

"So he was the one behind this?!" A cold and murderous look flashed across Ming Zhan's eyes.

Mingmei took two deep breaths and choked up, "Second brother, you're right. Who wouldn't want to climb such a high branch?"

Ming Xiao handed her a tissue, his eyes showing no warmth or emotion, "Wipe your tears and talk nicely."

Mingmei pretended to be touched and said, "Brother, I'm sorry..."

Ming Xiao said, "Ming Mei, as long as you can explain clearly, I will forgive you this time." Finally, he added, "I will convince Dad and Wan Wan to let you go."

Mingmei's eyelids twitched, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. "Brother, I will tell you everything I know."

Ming Xiao nodded slightly, "Okay."

Ming Zhan's face turned pale, "Hurry up and tell me."

Mingmei shuddered and spoke slowly, "Rong Zhi said that as long as he could get Haitang Garden, he would marry me..."

"He will marry you if you are like this?" Ming Zhan mocked mercilessly.
