Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 13
Chapter 13
Mei Yan had always been a head shorter than his peers, so he had been given this nickname when he quarreled with Mei Mu previously.
This time, when he heard Mei Shu’s attack, Mei Yan was not angry. Instead, he shook his head proudly. “Don’t lie to me! I went to the school’s infirmary to ask the doctor. Boys have a long period of growth in height. It’s just that everyone has a different stage of growth.”
Wang Yue rubbed her forehead. Mei Yan was just a child. It was hard for her to side with Mei Mu in this situation. She could only slap the table hard. “Alright! You can’t even eat in peace. If you continue to argue, you’re not allowed to eat for the next two days!”
Mei Shu continued to eat as if nothing had happened, while Mei Yan made a face at Mei Mu nonchalantly.
Mei Mu held back her anger and didn’t say anything more as she watched her own mother get angry.
The meal ended on a sour note.
Half an hour after the meal, Mei Shu called Mei Yan and he stood up and followed her back to his room.
Mei Shu arranged for Mei Yan to try doing his homework on his own first. If he didn’t know how to do it, he should set it aside and wait for her to solve it together with him.
Mei Shu used to daydream when she had nothing to do. She would only copy the teacher’s notes on the blackboard after she snapped out of it. Therefore, although her textbook was not as clean as Mei Yan’s, she didn’t have many notes. She took out her history textbook and started to copy.
For academic underachievers, there was no such thing as an interesting and exciting study experience. Today, Mei Yan worked hard and attended classes all day, although she was distracted several times in class, she still gained some benefits.
Doing homework was not like attending a class where you could see people and hear their voices. It was more boring than attending a class.
Before Mei Yan could write a few words, his thoughts drifted into outer space again. When he came back to his senses, half an hour had passed. He lowered his head and saw the line of words in the exercise book. Then, he saw Mei Shu, who had already copied more than ten pages of notes. He felt a little guilty.
At this moment, Mei Shu had finished copying a small section. She turned around and frowned when she saw Mei Yan’s homework progress. “You’ve only done this much in half an hour?!”
Although he was in the wrong, his mischievous personality made Mei Yan subconsciously retort, “I have to use my brain to write it myself. You don’t even need to use your brain to copy notes. The progress will definitely be different!”
At this moment, Mei Shu received a new mission. [Master, a long-term mission has been issued! Master, please help Mei Yan enter the top 20 of the class during this semester’s final exam.]
Mei Shu watched as Mei Yan took so long to solve three multiplication and division math problems. A complicated expression appeared on her face. She felt that this mission was extremely difficult.
Mei Shu didn’t dwell on the previous question with Mei Yan and casually asked, “How many people are in your class?”
Mei Shu took the initiative to change the topic. It was exactly what Mei Yan wanted. He rolled his eyes and thought for a moment. “52 people.”
Mei Shu sighed softly in her heart. Compared to Mei Yan’s weak foundation, she was more troubled by his learning attitude now. If his attitude didn’t change, it meant that he was still resisting learning in his heart. He would not have the motivation to study, just like just now. He had not even written a few words before his mind wandered.
Thinking that a nine-year-old child could probably be tricked by persuasion and deception, Mei Shu had an idea. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Guess what we have in common now?”
Mei Yan thought for a moment. “Having the same parents.”
Mei Shu: “… Anything else?”
Seeing Mei Yan shake his head, Mei Shu smiled mysteriously. “We’re all the last in our class!”
Looking at Mei Shu’s smile, Mei Yan felt helpless. “This doesn’t seem like a glorious thing.”
When Mei Shu saw Mei Yan take the bait, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She smiled and said, “It’s not glorious, but we have great potential! You have 51 people ahead of you that you can surpass, while I have 55 people ahead of me. Look at those who are in second and third place, no matter how hard they try, they can only move up one or two spots at most, or may not even be able to advance at all!”
Although it felt weird, Mei Yan felt that her words made sense and nodded.
Only then did Mei Shu get to the point. “Let’s make a bet. Our grade has about 500 students in the liberal arts class. In this monthly exam, I will rank in the top 200 of the grade, and you will make it to the top 20 in your class at the end of the semester. What do you think?”
Mei Yan snorted softly and rolled his eyes as if he had seen through Mei Shu. “You’re trying to trick me into learning again!”
Mei Shu rubbed Mei Yan’s head with a provocative smile. “You don’t dare to bet? Are you afraid of losing?”
Mei Yan was not someone who could withstand provocation. He knew this flaw in himself, but he just couldn’t change it. He even adds fuel to the fire, saying, “Ha, what’s there to be afraid of! If you want to bet, so be it! What if you lose?”
