While the caregiver was still puzzled by Mei Shu’s attitude, Mei Mu lying on the hospital bed actually opened her eyes slowly in response.
The girl who had been fragile and wanted to commit suicide just a moment ago now had eyes filled with desperation.
“Auntie, please leave for now,”
Mei Shu said, her gaze fixed on Mei Mu the entire time.
The caregiver quickly understood and obediently left, creating enough space for the two of them.
Even after she walked out, she still had lingering fear in her heart.
Both of those young ladies had terrifying expressions!
They were biological sisters, but they seemed to hold a deep grudge against each other. The one lying down looked like she could stand up and fight her sister to death at any moment!
Now, only the two of them remained in the ward.
Mei Shu decided to lay everything out, “What is your purpose?”
Mei Mu slowly propped herself up, leaning against the soft pillow at the head of the bed. Her smile deepened, “Aren’t you good at investigating and intelligent? If you want to know my purpose, go find out yourself!”
“No need for that.” Mei Shu said expressionlessly, “Speak out your purpose now, and I might agree.”
“Oh?” Mei Mu didn’t believe her words, leisurely saying, “What if 1 don’t want to say?”
“It seems you need to stay in the hospital for a while,” Mei Shu suddenly changed the topic, bringing up another matter seemingly unrelated to their conversation.
Mei Mu paused, not catching up with her train of thought for a moment. Her tone weakened, “Yes, but so what?”
Mei Shu sneered and lightly moved her lips, “1 think there must be someone at home who was arranged by you. She should have evidence of Mei Jing stabbing you. Guess if 1 can find and solve her during your hospital stay?”
A moment of panic appeared on Mei Mu’s face, but she quickly concealed it, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Although Mei Jing is not my full-blooded brother, he is still my brother. 1 never intended to hold him accountable.”
“Mei Mu, at this point, you are still not honest.” Mei Shu said with a hint of disappointment, “Since your goal is not to hold Mei Jing accountable, are you trying to exchange this injury for something? Let me think, could it be that you’re still eyeing the property of my family? Such as, shares in the company? Do you want Dad to compensate you?”
Mei Mu’s heart jumped, realizing that she had just fallen for her trap and revealed too much.
Now Mei Shu had guessed her purpose almost completely.
Mei Mu felt an urgent sense of becoming completely destitute again.
She clenched the bedsheet, gritting her teeth to avoid bursting into curses. Instead, she put on an appearance of helplessness, “Sister, why would you think that of me? 1 made mistakes back then, but the one who orchestrated everything was my mother. She has already received retribution, life for a life. 1 was just as young as you at that time; you can’t blame everything on me!”
Mei Shu had long known that Mei Mu was the kind of person who could abandon even her own mother at a critical moment.
She chuckled, took out her phone from her pocket, and found the surveillance video recorded against Lu Si’s arrangements.
In the footage, Wang Yue knelt on the ground, smiling miserably, and then a gunshot rang out. Her laughter abruptly stopped, and she fell to the ground, lifeless.
At the moment her body slowly fell, she died with unrelenting eyes.
Mei Mu stared blankly at the video, her whole body trembling.
“Mei Shu, aren’t you afraid of retribution for doing this?” After making sure that Mei Shu’s phone wasn’t recording audio, Mei Mu stopped pretending and tore off the mask of hypocrisy completely.
Mei Shu took back her phone slowly and added a compassionate twist, “Do you want me to send this video to your phone? This is the precious last video of your mother before she passed away. You should keep it as a memorial.”
Mei Mu’s eyelashes trembled, and she unexpectedly shed a tear. When the tear slid down to her lips, she suddenly revealed a more insane smile than that of Wang Yue in the video, “Mei Shu, just wait. 1 will take everything you have.
Even if 1 can’t deal with you, 1 will deal with your brothers. We’ll die together if need be!”
Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, calmly saying, “Feel free to try. But before that, I will play with you to death. If you are so eager to join your mom in hell, then go ahead and make a move.”
After saying that, she seemed to lose all interest, turned around, and walked towards the door, “Oh, by the way, I need to go home to clean up. 1’11 be very busy for a while. If you still want to make a scene, please do something real. I will come to collect your body, considering you are my father’s daughter.” “You’re so vicious!” Mei Mu shouted fiercely at her retreating figure. Due to her excessive force, she accidentally pulled her abdominal wound, causing her to groan in pain, cold sweat streaming down her forehead.
Mei Shu didn’t look back, just waved her hand behind her, “Pot calling the kettle black. You are not a kind person either, just a bit more foolish..”
