“It’s very simple; let’s play a little game of choice,” Mei Shu said with a calm smile.
That smile inexplicably made Shen Yuan shiver all over. “What game?”
Mei Shu patted her shoulder and explained, “I told you not to be nervous. It’s just a straightforward multiple-choice question. I can choose not to say anything, act like 1 know nothing, or, of course, I can help you with your grandmother’s medical expenses.”
Shen Yuan, in a moment of neglect, raised her eyes, and her gaze became more acute. “Conditions?”
“The condition is that all the plans you’ve implemented so far will fail. Lu Si will consider you as a mortal enemy, and the Mei family, represented by me, will eventually take all of the Shen family’s businesses.”
Mei Shu spoke lightly, but every word she said made Shen Yuan instinctively hold her breath.
“You are so arrogant. What makes you think you can do that?” Shen Yuan mocked, but deep down, she was already starting to panic.
She felt inexplicably that the Mei Shu in front of her was like a different person from the one who treated her as a friend before.
If you carefully compared the differences between them, it seemed that the current Mei Shu looked more ruthless and was no longer as accommodating to her as before.
“This is your second option.” Mei Shu continued to wear a smiling expression. “You can choose not to believe me. In that case, I won’t pay for your grandmother’s medical expenses today. You’re free to say whatever you want outside, but the final result will be the same. Your Shen family will still be mine.”
Shen Yuan’s face revealed horror as she deeply looked into Mei Shu’s eyes. “Are you serious?”
Mei Shu nodded with a sigh, as if regretful, and said,
“I think you’ll choose the second one. Since you leave yourself no room, I wish you and the old lady good luck. I have injuries, so I won’t stand here in the cold wind. Goodbye.”
Mei Shu smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. Choose for yourself.”
Shen Yuan clenched her fists by her side. When she looked up again, there was only ruthlessness in her eyes. “I choose the second, Mei Shu. This is also a choice you made yourself. You left her in the lurch today, but tomorrow, everyone will know how you treated an old man who had a heart attack and had already been admitted to the intensive care unit! Just wait for your younger brothers to be cursed together with you!”
“Very good. I think you will choose this one too.” Mei Shu sighed faintly as if regretting it. He smiled and said, “Since you don’t leave any leeway for yourself, 1 wish you and the elderly lady good luck. I’m injured, so I won’t stay here in the cold wind with you. Goodbye.”
After saying that, she turned and walked away with Mei Yan and Mei Jing, leaving Shen Yuan alone in the corridor, stunned.
Shen Yuan was not sure what cards Mei Shu still held, making her so calm until now.
She also didn’t know whether Mei Shu really knew about that matter or was just bluffing.
But at this moment, she didn’t want to open up new troubles.
At this crucial juncture, the most important thing was to tarnish Mei Shu’s reputation. As long as Lu Ting thoroughly disliked Mei Shu, even if Mei Shu had extraordinary abilities, she would never have a chance to marry Lu Si.
Back in the ward, Mei Yan hurriedly approached Mei Shu. “Sister, what did you say to that woman just now? Why did it take so long?”
Mei Shu smiled and rubbed his head, asking instead, “There’s something I need your help with. Are you willing?”
“Why ask? As long as it’s something Sister entrusts me with, even if it’s going up a mountain of knives or down a sea of fire, I won’t hesitate!” Mei Yan proudly raised his chin.
“No need to be so exaggerated; it’s not a big deal.” Mei Shu pulled him closer and whispered a few words.
Mei Yan pouted unhappily. “Why do I have to go find him? I don’t want to.”
“Who was the one saying they wouldn’t hesitate to do anything just now?” Mei Shu teased, glancing at him.
Mei Yan reluctantly said, “Fine, since it’s something Sister asked, I’ll do it! But if I find out he’s really with Shen Yuan, I’ll kick him to death!”
Mei Shu chuckled, pinching his nose. “Alright, I’ll rest here on my own. Let Zhao Butler drive you and Ah Jing home.”
“Huh? Sister, I don’t want to leave. If both I and Yan Yan leave, won’t you be alone in the hospital? That woman surnamed Shen is still upstairs. If she goes crazy, who knows what she might do. I don’t feel at ease leaving you alone here.”
Mei Jing directly refused, mumbling and grumbling.
But Mei Shu was determined to send them away. “Enough, your sister’s strength is considerable. You should know that Shen Yuan can’t do anything to me. You two have school tomorrow. Go back early and rest. Come to see me after school tomorrow, OK?”
Only then did Mei Jing reluctantly agree, and she left the ward with Zhao Yan.
On the way, Mei Jing curiously nudged Mei Yan’s arm.. “What did Sister ask you to do just now? Are you going to inform Lu Si?”
