The siblings sat by the table, chatting and laughing, creating a warm atmosphere.
Mei Yun went on a business trip yesterday and would be back in a few days.
Mei Shu glanced toward the door and saw Mei Yan standing there, looking dazed.
Normally, he was the most noisy, but today he was surprisingly quiet.
Mei Shu found it strange, waved for him to come over, and brought him to sit on her left side, asking patiently, “Yanyan, what’s on your mind? Why do you look unhappy?”
Mei Yan’s face was wrinkled like a bun, avoiding her hand in distress.
Mei Shu felt curious and turned her gaze to Mei Feng, who was already eating. “What’s wrong with Yanyan?”
Mei Jing, the quickest to respond, said, “Oh, he didn’t do well in this exam and is upset about it!”
“Oh?” Mei Shu smiled even more, “Yanyan, if you’re not satisfied with the exam, you can continue to work hard next time! Our agreement was for the final exam, so it’s okay if you didn’t do well this time!”
“It’s not because of the bet!” Mei Yan puffed up his cheeks, disgruntled, “The questions in this exam were so difficult, I didn’t understand many of them, but those good students in class who usually do well said the questions were easy! Is the gap between me and them really that big? I’ve been working hard! I do my homework diligently every day!”
“Alright, sister knows that Yanyan has been diligent.” After listening to his complaints, Mei Shu looked at his expression, on the verge of tears, and immediately softened. She hugged her brother and comforted him, “But other kids are working hard too! Yan Yan has already made impressive progress, and you’ll do even better next time!”
Mei Yan knew that what she said made sense.
He had only worked hard for a short time, while others had been studying diligently since first grade. It was normal not to surpass them in such a short period, but he still felt indignant. “Sister, next time, I’ll definitely be in the top three in the class! Just wait and see!”
“Sure.” Mei Shu happily ruffled his hair. “Sister will wait for Yanyan’s good news. If Yanyan can really make it to the top three next time, sister will fulfill one of your wishes. How about that?”
Upon hearing this, Mei Yan’s eyes widened, “Sister is an adult, so you must keep your word!”
“Okay, 1’11 absolutely keep my word.” Mei Shu affectionately pinched his nose, reluctantly letting go of him after placing him on the nearby chair.
Mei Feng put down his chopsticks, not entirely approving. “Sister, Yanyan is a boy. Don’t spoil him too much.”
“Humph, 1 bet you’re just jealous of me!” Mei Yan made a face in Mei Feng’s direction.
Mei Feng dangerously squinted his eyes.
He realized that since Mei Shu came into the picture, these two brothers were no longer afraid of him!
The authority he had carefully established seemed to disappear without a trace!
Xiao He is still cuter!
Thinking of his brother still at school, the gleam in Mei Feng’s eyes dimmed, “Sister, about what you said last time, wanting to bring Xiao He back home…”
Mei Shu smiled and nodded, “I will go to the school tomorrow to handle the procedures for Xiao He. We can invite a professional psychologist to treat him and provide lessons at home.”
Zhao Yan had been quietly standing by, watching the joyous scene of the young masters and miss at home. When he heard about Young Master Mei He’s matter, he quickly chimed in, “Then I’ll send someone to rearrange Young Master Mei He’s room right away!”
God knew how much Butler Zhao cared about Mei He.
Although the children lost their mother since childhood, they still grew up stumbling and stumbling. Even Mei Yan was striving for progress. Everything was developing in a positive direction.
Except Mei He, who always stayed in place, unable to shake off the shadow of losing his mother.
The person Zhao Yan cared most about, besides Mei Shu, was Mei He.
When he heard that they were going to bring Mei He back home, he was immediately delighted, almost jumping up directly.
The next day, Mei Shu and Mei Feng went out to personally pick up their brother.
Mei Jing and Mei Yan initially clamored to go with them, but Mei Shu was worried that too many people would make Mei He nervous. She instructed them to stay at home and emphasized again to carefully check the house.
Especially the knives and scissors placed in the open, making sure there was nothing that could harm Xiao He.
At the school, Mei Shu headed straight to the principal’s office.
The tuition fees paid by the Mei family were still more than half a year’s worth, and the principal did not expect Mei Shu to come suddenly to handle the withdrawal procedures for Mei He. He felt a bit awkward, “Do the adults in your family know about this?”
Mei Shu nodded, “My dad has agreed. If you don’t believe it, you can make a call to confirm.”
Last time, Mei Shu discovered what happened to Mei He in time, so the principal trusted her. Hearing her say this, he had no intention of calling Mei Yun to verify.
However, he still reminded Mei Shu. “Tuition fees cannot be refunded..”
