Chapter 170: A Visit of Gratitude
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mei Yun’s face indeed revealed a hint of nostalgia for the past.
Wang Yue watched, gritting her teeth.
That damned Mei Shu deliberately mentioned Bai Ling at this time!
She couldn’t stand how close Mei Yun and Mei Shu were!
In her heart, she cursed Mei Shu thoroughly, but on her face, she smiled even more gently. “In the future, Auntie will try to make up for the maternal love you’ve missed. If you have any requests, just tell Auntie.”
“If you can do that, I’ll be relieved,” Mei Yun said, patting her hand appreciatively.
Wang Yue, of course, exchanged glances with him, making Mei Yan almost vomit the buns he had just eaten.
He quietly moved closer to his sister and gave her an admiring look. “Sis, how can you tolerate this?”
“What’s the big deal,” Mei Shu replied calmly.
Just as Mei Yan thought she was going to say something even more nauseating, he saw Mei Shu motion in Mei Jing’s direction and innocently shrug his shoulders. “Look at your brother, he can eat two more buns than usual.”
Mei Yan:”…”
His slightly pitying gaze slid slowly from his brother’s puffed-up cheeks, and he silently got up from the table.
He couldn’t eat with these two abnormal people here. Instead of getting irritated watching them, he might as well go to school and review the content the teacher would be covering today.
Because he had made plans with Lu Si to personally express gratitude to the Lu family last night, Mei Yun had actually come to the school gate today to pick up Mei Shu after school.
Other students had only seen Mei Mu flaunt their family’s wealth in the past, so when they saw the usually low-key Mei Shu, they thought she wasn’t favored at home.
But today, a conspicuous luxury car from the Mei family was parked at the school gate, and only then did they realize that the young lady didn’t like showing off her wealth.
Amid the exclamations of envy and jealousy from the crowd, Mei Shu got into the car. As soon as the car door closed, it isolated the noisy outside world.
Mei Yun glanced at his watch and said, “I remember Lu Yan’s class is right next to yours. Why didn’t he come out with you?”
Mei Shu suddenly found it amusing.
Given how much Mei Yun cared about her, he probably didn’t even know which class she was in now, yet he was thinking about having her play matchmaker between him and Lu Yan.
She put on a serious face but showed a hint of melancholy. “Dad, 1 don’t know why, but ever since 1 came back this time, Aunt Qin doesn’t like it when I hang out with Lu Yan. So 1 thought it might be better not to deliberately invite him when we visit their house this time.”
“Why is that?” As soon as the words left Mei Yun’s mouth, he understood.
Since Bai Ling’s death, the Lu family and the Mei family had completely cut off contact.
What didn’t he understand?
It was all because Wang Yue hadn’t maintained their relationship properly.
In this regard, Wang Yue could be blamed for not networking better. If Bai Ling were still alive, the Mei family would probably be in a completely different situation by now.
Mei Shu’s words hit the mark. She saw Mei Yun’s expression of frustration and stopped talking.
Some things were obvious to everyone, and she just needed to remind Mei Yun at the right time, just enough to increase his dissatisfaction with Wang Yue without making him resentful.
Father and daughter didn’t speak on the way, until the car stopped in front of the Lu family’s house. Mei Yun straightened his suit and said somewhat awkwardly, “1 can tell that your relationship with Si Ye is quite special. I’m sure you’re aware of the Lu family’s status. Building a good relationship with them is beneficial for our family, and it won’t hurt. I’m not asking you to deliberately flatter others, but since we have this opportunity, we should make the most of it. Do you agree?”
“Yes,” Mei Shu nodded obediently.
Mei Yun looked satisfied and patted her head. “My Shu’er is the most well-behaved. Alright, I believe you’ll do well. Let’s go.”
As he turned away, the smile on Mei Shu’s face disappeared completely.
The Lu family’s steward had received advance notice and personally came out to welcome them, giving Mei Yun plenty of face.
This made Mei Yun feel even more esteemed, and he became even more enthusiastic with his compliments.
Once inside the Lu family’s estate, he couldn’t help but praise everything he saw.
The steward naturally smiled and followed along. When they reached a gazebo in the garden, he stopped and made a welcoming gesture to Mei Yun. “Master Si is inside. If you have any requests, please don’t hesitate to ask me.”
“Thank you.” Mei Yun bid farewell to the steward politely and then led IVlei Shu around a row of trees to the depths of the garden.
The gazebo here was built in a unique style, different from the grandeur elsewhere. Instead, it had a gentle and serene charm belonging to the countryside.
Mei Shu thought of the man’s aura and felt that he matched this scenery perfectly.
However, she didn’t know that perhaps only she would view Lu Si this way, as everyone else thought of him as cunning and ruthless.
“Master Si,” Mei Yun greeted respectfully as he entered the gazebo.
Lu Si smiled and nodded graciously. “Please have a seat. 1 have something important to discuss with you..”
