Chapter 456: Engagement?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving MiYue Studio, Mei Shu took a deep breath and realized that she was a bit hungry.
“Where should we eat?” she habitually asked for the man’s opinion beside her, as he always knew how to guess her thoughts and find a restaurant that would satisfy her.
But this time, she walked towards the car by herself, and after waiting for a while, the man beside her still hadn’t spoken.
Mei Shu stopped and turned around, looking at Lu Si with confusion. She saw him frowning and impatiently looking at his phone.
“What’s wrong? Is there something going on at the company?” Mei Shu turned back with some concern.
Lu Si shook his head, put his phone in his pocket, and said, “Just a small matter, 1 need to handle it. You go home by yourself first, okay?”
“It’s okay, you don’t need to worry about me. If you have something important, go and deal with it quickly.”
Mei Shu smiled understandingly.
Lu Si looked a bit reluctant to leave her. He pulled her hand, gently kissed her cheek, and reluctantly let her go. “Call me when you get home, let me know that you’re safe, alright?”
“Sure, I’m not a child anymore. You can rest assured.” Mei Shu felt sweet in her heart, and her face was filled with a smile.
After bidding farewell to Lu Si, she took a taxi home. At this time, she should be able to catch up with her brothers for lunch.
Today, the chef prepared a seafood feast.
The siblings enjoyed the meal, and even Mei Shu had a lazy thought. They lounged on the sofa, watching TV together, and she didn’t rush them to go back to their rooms to study as she used to.
Zhao Yan kindly brought them freshly brewed Pu-erh tea and some washed fruits on the coffee table, smiling, “Drinking hot tea aids digestion, so you won’t have indigestion later.”
“Thank you, Uncle Zhao.” Mei Shu was in a good mood today, acting like a real young girl for once.
Zhao Yan was also happy.
After Lady Bai Ling passed away, the Mei family hadn’t experienced such a warm scene for a long time.
“The signing ceremony between Shen Group and Kangwei Group has been successfully completed. For Shen Family, this will be an opportunity to turn the tide. Whether Shen Family will rise again depends on whether this cooperation can proceed smoothly.”
The voice of the media reporters on the TV was plain, without any emotional fluctuations.
Mei Shu casually glanced at the TV and saw Shen Yuan in the frame.
She instantly sat up straight, her eyes filled with disbelief.
“Sis, what are you looking at?” Mei Yan, curious, followed her gaze towards the TV and exclaimed, “Isn’t that our brother-in-law?”
At the words, Mei Jing and Mei Feng also sat up from the sofa, staring at the screen.
“Miss Shen, this time the signing ceremony of Shen Group was represented by you. Does this mean you will soon become the next president of Shen Group?”
The reporter urgently stopped them.
Lu Si, impatiently dealing with reporters, had already gone to the car with Jiang He.
No matter how gossipy those reporters were, they didn’t dare to stop him recklessly.
Shen Yuan had to stop and answered with a polite smile, “Yes, my father intends to entrust the position of the president to me.”
The reporter hurriedly continued to ask, “Miss Shen, why did Shen Family invite Master Si to the signing ceremony? Is the rumor about the two of you getting engaged true?”
“This reporter is really good at making up stories. Master Si is clearly in a relationship with Sister. What does he have to do with that woman?” Mei Jing sneered, waiting to see how the reporter couldn’t get off the stage.
To their surprise, in the camera, Shen Yuan actually responded with a candid expression, “Yes, the two of us have decided to get engaged soon, and we will inform the media when the time comes.”
“Master Si personally accompanied Miss Shen to the signing ceremony and let you announce the engagement. It seems that the two of you are really in love.” The reporter sighed with envy.
Shen Yuan maintained a proper smile. She looked at Lu Si’s back and smiled even more sweetly.
Mei Shu couldn’t hear what the reporter said next.
The entire living room of the Mei family fell into a dead silence.
Mei Yan reacted first, and he even directly threw the expensive teacup in his hand, furious. “Okay, what a damn Master Si! He’s just a thorough liar! He dares to let me call him Brother-in-law! 1 spit on him! If he dares to enter our house again, 1 will break his legs!”
“That’s right! Sister, it’s not worth it for such a two-timer. But we can’t let him off so easily. Quickly post the photos you took with him online, saying that you are the legitimate girlfriend. Let’s see how he explains it to the public!” Mei Jing also indignantly started giving suggestions.
Mei Feng held his phone and said, “Oh no, now the internet is flooded with news about the engagement between the Shen family and the Lu family. They even say that Shen Yuan and Lu Si are a perfect match! It’s ridiculous. Lu Si, that scumbag, deserves to be praised by the public?”
“Sis, don’t be sad. Let’s go to Lu’s house together to settle the score! If necessary, we can ask Lu Yan for help!” Mei Yan held Mei Shu’s hand, afraid that his sister would shed tears for that shameless man..
