However, things didn’t go as planned. Mei Shu returned home early in the morning.
By the time Lu Si came to wake her up personally, her guest room had been tidied up so neatly that it looked as if no one had ever stayed there.
Even the clothes she borrowed the previous day had been neatly folded and placed on the bed.
The smile that had started to form on his lips earlier suddenly vanished.
Lu Si came out with a stern face and ran into Jiang He on the way. He said irritably, “You’re getting lazier every day. Who was it that used to get up even earlier than me when first started working?”
Jiang He was taken aback by the sudden scolding.
He had always been an early riser!
Today, he hadn’t been slacking off; his wakeup time was the same as usual.
He just hadn’t expected Lu Si to be up so early.
And it seemed that Lu Si was in a bad mood. Who had provoked him?
Wait a minute!
In the blink of an eye, Jiang He seemed to understand something. He cautiously asked, “Master Si, has Miss Mei Shu already left?”
Lu Si shot him an annoyed glance but didn’t say anything.
Jiang He quickly caught up from behind. “Master Si, perhaps Miss Mei Shu left because of something at home? You know she has been dealing with family matters recently, and she didn’t want to disturb your rest. She probably didn’t mean to leave without a word.”
Lu Si quickened his pace, growing even more agitated.
He tended to act this way when he was in a bad mood.
Jiang He knew this very well and hastened to say, “Master Si, you have a busy day ahead with two morning meetings. How about having breakfast before you leave?”
“I won’t eat.” Lu Si adjusted the buttons on his suit sleeves, put on his shoes in the hallway, and said, “Notify the planning department that if today’s proposals don’t meet my satisfaction, they’ll lose their monthly bonuses.”
“Understood.” Jiang He nodded and silently prayed for his colleagues in the planning department.
Mei Shu hadn’t left intentionally without saying goodbye.
Last night, her phone ran out of battery, and because she didn’t want to talk to Lu Si, she didn’t ask to borrow a charger. Instead, she went straight to bed.
Little did she know, Mei Feng came to pick her up from the Lu family early in the morning, so she hurriedly got up and went back home with her brother.
On the way, Mei Shu continuously massaged her slightly sore temples and appeared to be in pain.
Mei Feng noticed and asked, “Sis, did you catch a cold in the rain yesterday?”
Mei Shu gently shook her head. “1 shouldn’t be this fragile. It’s probably because I’ve been busy lately and haven’t taken good care of my health.”
Mei Feng chuckled silently. “You never used to get up early to exercise. Last night, 1 heard Yangyang say that ever since you returned home, you’ve been working out rigorously every day, rain or shine. You’ve even been seriously tutoring them with their homework. Sis, you’ve been working too hard.”
Mei Shu playfully slapped his back. “Isn’t this what 1 should be doing? As your older sister, I should take good care of you. Feng, you don’t have to be so polite with me. To be honest, you’re my dearest little brother.”
Mei Feng suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at her incredulously, and even his eyes were reddening at the corners. “What did you say? I’m your dearest… little brother?”
“Yes,” Mei Shu looked at him seriously and smiled, “We two practically grew up together. Yan Yan and Xiao He were all too young, and 1 didn’t have as much time with them. When I left home, Yanyan was just a toddler. We actually spent the most time together.”
When their mother gave birth to Mei Shu, it wasn’t long before she became pregnant with Mei Feng.
Mei Shu initially resisted the presence of her little brother, but later, because Mei Feng had a gentle and sensible personality and never cried or made a fuss for no reason, her young heart gradually began to appreciate the sweetness of having a little brother.
They ate and slept together when they were young and got into mischief together. Weren’t they the closest of siblings?
It seemed that Mei Feng was reminiscing about the past, and he slowly broke into a smile. “Sis, thank you for forgiving me for the things 1 said back then.”
“Mei Feng, we’re family. There’s no need for such formal words,” Mei Shu said. She walked up to him, gently stroked his soft and fluffy hair, and squinted as she smiled. “Mei Feng, you’ve really grown up. 1 have to look up to see you now.”
Mei Feng nodded gently and said, “So, sis, from now on, I’ll protect you well. I’ve already applied to be a day student at school, so I’ll come home every day. I won’t let anyone easily bully you, and I won’t let anyone send you away again!”
Evidently, he had heard from Mei Yan about Wang Yue’s previous plan to send Mei Shu back to the countryside.
Mei Shu smiled and replied, “Alright, then I’ll rely on Ah Feng. Let’s go, we’ll go home together, have a meal, and then head to school.”
Mei Feng watched her silently from behind, as though he were gazing at a rare treasure, unable to divert his gaze for a long time.
After their mother passed away, the most important person in the entire household for him was Mei Shu, followed by Mei Yan and Mei Jing.
Their father, who had betrayed their mother, was someone Mei Feng never felt close to.
In a way, Mei Feng even resented Mei Yun for his infidelity.
If it weren’t for his betrayal, their mother might not have left this world so early..
