The old lady was choked, unable to utter a single word.
Stiffening her neck and rendered speechless for a while , she finally managed to exhale, “Listen to what you’re saying! It’s one thing for the police to arrest people indiscriminately, but you, talking about your sister like that! She’s your own sister. Even if others don’t believe her, how can you speak about these things so easily?”
“Grandma means that Mei Mu and Wang Yue have never done those things, and the police have wrongly accused them?” Mei Shu’s lips curled into a cold smile. “1 advise you not to live only in your own world. Whether Mei Mu did those things or not, she’s right here. Just ask her directly.”
The old lady turned to look at Mei Mu, her stern expression softened by a hint of kindness. “If you have any grievances, just say it. Grandma is here!”
For a moment, everyone in the living room focused their gaze on Mei Mu.
Mei Shu had no intention of bringing up the past, but the old lady’s words reminded her that Mei Mu seemed to owe her an apology for the foolish things she had done.
In her second life, Mei Shu wouldn’t let herself be wronged. Since this topic had already come up, it was a good opportunity to make Mei Mu apologize for her past actions.
Hearing this, Mei Mu’s face turned pale, and the corners of her eyes reddened. “Grandma, it’s true that 1 was confused before and did something very wrong to my sister. Today, I sincerely apologize to my sister.”
After speaking, she turned to Mei Shu, with a humble and sincere attitude. “Sister, I’m sorry. Please forgive my past ignorance. 1 won’t do anything to harm you in the future.”
Mei Shu raised an eyebrow slightly. She began to suspect that Mei Mu’s soul had been replaced.
Was she possessed?
How else could there be such a drastic change?
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered a skill she had used before. Calculating, the cooldown time should be over, and it was the perfect time to use it.
[System, activate mind-reading ability. I want to know what Mei Mu is really thinking right now.]
[Mind-reading ability has been activated for you, Master.]
As the system spoke, Mei Mu’s familiar voice echoed in Mei Shu’s ears.
[This old woman is really nosy. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have to be so humble in front of Mei Shu! Just wait, 1 will settle all the scores one by one in the future!]
[Mind-reading ability has been deactivated. The cooldown time for the next activation is one month.]
Great, it was still the original Mei Mu.
Mei Shu couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
It seemed she had only learned to temporarily conceal her sharpness, and her true nature hadn’t changed at all.
Now that the enemy was in the open while she remained hidden, the real game was about to begin.
A crack suddenly appeared on Mei Shu’s indifferent face, revealing an unusually friendly and gentle smile. “Good sister, as long as you know how to correct your mistakes, you are still a good child of the Mei family. How could your sister not forgive you?”
At these words, not only the old lady but even Mei Yun felt a bit surprised.
Considering Mei Shu’s personality, even if she didn’t want to bother with Mei Mu, she should have ignored her. Why did she appear so gentle and affectionate?
It seemed he knew too little about her daughter.
Mei Yun couldn’t help but feel a tinge of guilt towards Mei Shu.
His eldest daughter was indeed sensible, and the breadth of her heart, even at such a young age, was truly remarkable. Entrusting the Mei family to her might indeed lead to a better future.
Unconsciously, Mei Yun had already subconsciously favored Mei Shu, considering her as the future heir.
On the other side.
Mei Mu was still smug for successfully deceiving Mei Shu. With a blink of her long eyelashes, a tear fell, portraying a look of overwhelming joy. “Sister, you’re really good to me. I’m so grateful to you. Let’s get along peacefully as sisters from now on. I promise not to do anything to make you angry.”
“Okay, I believe you.” Mei Shu looked at her with a faint smile, feigning affection for a while before turning to Mei Yun. “Dad, we’ve been talking for so long. Why haven’t we seen my brothers? Where did they go?”
Mei Yun cleared his throat and subconsciously glanced at the old lady before saying, “I asked Mei Feng and the others to take Xiao He out for a stroll. Don’t worry; I’ve consulted the doctor. Xiao He shouldn’t stay at home all the time. Going out and familiarizing himself with the outside world from time to time will help in his recovery.”
At these words, Mei Shu could only muster a cold smile in her heart.
What kind of stroll? It was probably the old lady’s disapproval of Xiao staying at home, insisting on sending him out!
With Mei Feng’s personality, she wouldn’t let Xiao He go alone. Hence, they had no choice but to accompany him!
But now, arguing about these things was meaningless. Mei Shu assumed the posture of a gracious hostess, sitting on the sofa, and instructed Butler Zhao, “Send someone to call the young masters back for dinner. It’s not safe for them to be outside so late..”
