As a staff member of the passenger station, Guan Guiling's situation required a visit from the unit to extend condolences. Sister Chen was responsible for such situations. However, she didn't call her usual companions this time—instead, she opted for Ming Mei.
Ming Mei was caught off guard. "I'm free, sure. But why ask me?"
She was puzzled.
Sister Chen replied, "I've heard that the family of the person who beat her up is quite vicious. Their son's in custody, but there's a risk they might come to the hospital to cause trouble. I thought it would be safer with you there, just in case."
She dealt with all sorts of unit-related mishaps. Such events often involved unreasonable people who resorted to physical violence. Even a hint of danger required extra precautions.
Others joked, "You're quite cunning."
"Aren't you making Ming Mei your bodyguard?"
Sister Chen chuckled, "Not at all. Besides, it might make for some good entertainment."
Ming Mei laughed. "True enough."
