Since Chen Rou had declared that a meeting would be held on the spot, she naturally had to assemble the team right there. There were currently eighteen bodyguards on duty at the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, all working twenty-four-hour shifts and stationed at various posts. As soon as Mei Baoshan sent out the notification over the walkie-talkie, the entire crew abandoned their posts to attend the meeting. During the wait, Chen Rou remained as arrogant as ever. Suddenly, she stepped forward, snatched the car keys from Mei Baoshan's waist, and tossed them to Song Yuanchao. She gave him a look, and Song Yuanchao, understanding, took the keys and headed downstairs. One must understand that Mei Baoshan was not only Nie Yao’s uncle but had also saved Nie Rong’s life and had served as the head of security for the Nie Family for over twenty years. Yet now, first, Nie Rong was not protecting him, allowing a young girl like Chen Rou to cast him aside; and second, Chen Rou was brazenly doubting him in front of all the bodyguards, even letting Song Yuanchao, a newcomer, search his car. Had Mei Baoshan been a man of a more volatile temperament, he would have come to blows with Chen Rou right then and there.
