After dinner, Mei Shu wanted to go out for a breather.
Mei Feng was about to go upstairs when he turned around and saw his sister looking dejected. He followed her worriedly.
The two of them walked to the small pavilion in the courtyard and sat down.
There were still many mosquitoes in early summer. Mei Shu subconsciously hugged her arms and looked at the dark night. “It should rain tomorrow. What a pity. I wanted to take Xiao He out to play.”
“The doctor said that Xiao He is recovering well and can go out for a walk. Why don’t we call Xiao Jing and Yanyan next weekend and take Xiao He out to play?” Mei Feng sat next to her and smiled.
Mei Shu nodded softly, turned his head, and said slowly, “If the brake oil can’t verify the composition of the matter inside because it expired, we should have worked for nothing again.”
Mei Feng paused and said, “Sister, if Dad knew that Wang Yue hired someone to kill Mom, would he agree to sue Wang Yue and make her pay with her life?”
Mei Shu narrowed her eyes dangerously. “No matter what he thinks, I’ll make that woman pay the price. Don’t forget that she could take out so much money for Zhou Nan back then because of Dad. And Dad’s money was earned by opening a company with Mom. She used Mom’s money to buy Mom’s life.”
Mei Feng subconsciously clenched his fists. “1 haven’t forgotten. Even if I don’t acknowledge my biological father, 1 must avenge my mother. 1 believe my younger brothers think so too.”
Mei Shu pursed her thin lips and suddenly relaxed after a while. She put on a gentle smile and reached out to touch his head. “Xiao Feng, when 1 leave Lin City to go to university in the future, 1’11 need you to take care of the family. But not long after, you will leave home too.”
Mei Feng was stunned for a moment. He suddenly took her hand, lowered his head, and asked gloomily, “Sister, you can go to university wherever you want. You can do whatever you want, but that man today…”
“Don’t mention him.” Mei Shu looked away unnaturally. “I’m not in a relationship with him. I can go to any place for college. Why should I consider him?”
“But you care a lot, Sister.” Mei Feng saw through her thoughts, but he couldn’t help but laugh. “Actually, as a younger brother, 1 really don’t want you to find a boyfriend so early. But if you like him very much, you should solve the suspicion and doubt between you and him. You should make things clear.”
“You know a lot.” Mei Shu teased him with a smile. “Do you already have a little girlfriend behind your family’s back?”
Mei Feng blushed and quickly denied, “No! Sister, don’t talk nonsense!”
Mei Shu laughed out loud at his innocent reaction, but there was not much real joy in his laughter. There was only loneliness that grew stronger and stronger.
Mei Feng heard it clearly and pressed the corners of his mouth down sadly. “Sister, if you don’t want to laugh, don’t laugh.”
A soft sigh dispersed into the wind.
Mei Shu suddenly stopped laughing. Her long hair covered half of her face, making it impossible to see her emotions, but her voice was exceptionally cold.
“Go back. It’s late.”
“Okay…” Mei Feng’s words were stuck in his throat.
In front of her, a man who had appeared out of nowhere was looking down at the person he had been thinking about ail night. His slender fingers clasped her arm, and his lips moved slightly. “Don’t go.”
Mei Shu suddenly raised his head and met Lu Si’s tired eyes in shock. “Why are you here?”
She didn’t even hear the footsteps?
Lu Si sighed and took her hand, about to pull her away.
Mei Feng immediately said, “Well, Master Si, you can talk to Sister here. I’m going back.”
“OK.” Lu Si nodded at him, then took off his coat and put it on Mei Shu. “Why are you feeding mosquitoes here at night? Why don’t you put on an extra coat for yourself?”
“You haven’t answered my question. Why are you here? When did you come?” Mei Shu stared at him without blinking. It would be a lie to say that she was unhappy.
Lu Si lowered his head and explained to her seriously, “I wanted to see you, so I came. I arrived when you were laughing sadly.”
Mei Shu blushed and quickly looked away, trying to cover it up. “Who let you in? You’re trespassing!”
It turned out that her laughter was so loud that it even covered his approaching footsteps.
Lu Si held her face, forcing her to look at him. “You’re angry about me having dinner with Shen Yuan.”
Mei Shu brushed his hand away and said angrily, “Don’t flatter yourself. It’s your business who you want to eat with. What does it have to do with me?” “What if 1 said that 1 ate with her for you?” Lu Si continued to stare at her.
Mei Shu glared at him in dissatisfaction. “Don’t use me as an excuse. 1 didn’t force you to go..”
