Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 16

Chapter 16

Lu Yan looked at the pale and skinny girl in front of him and felt a little emotional. If Aunt Bai was still alive, Mei Shu would not have been sent to the countryside under the pretext of recuperation.

Mei Shu saw the sympathy in Lu Yan’s eyes and was slightly moved. This was the only friend who had given her warmth in her previous life. However, less than two months after the two of them reunited, Lu Yan had gone overseas to study. By the time he returned from school, she was already disfigured and paralyzed. Mei Shu was unwilling to meet her friend in that way, so she never saw him again until her death.

Lu Yan was a little excited to meet an old friend, but he only showed a faint smile on his face. “It’s good that you’re back. Are you studying at No.1 Middle School now?”

Mei Shu nodded. “I was assigned to Class 6.”

The two of them started chatting at the cashier counter. When the shop assistant saw that someone was coming in to take a look, she urged Lu Yan to order.

Seeing this, Li Zhen took the initiative to say, “I’ll order. You guys go find seats.”

Lu Yan didn’t refuse. “I just want a bowl of beef noodles.”

Mei Shu had long seen this scumbag from the corner of her eye. Since she didn’t know him at this time in this life, she ignored him.

The two of them found an empty table for four and sat down opposite it.

Lu Yan suddenly thought of what his mother had mentioned to him about the Mei family. “The teachers in the city are better at guessing exam questions than in the town. If you have any problems with your studies, you can come to ask me.”

When Mei Shu heard this, the smile on her face became even more sincere. “Alright, I won’t stand on ceremony then!”

In her previous life, the first time Mei Shu saw Lu Yan after returning to the city was in front of the teaching building after school. He had said the same thing to Mei Shu, but she had only gone to look for him once after that.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to see him, but she was stupid. After agreeing to study with Lu Yan, she told Mei Mu and Wang Yue about this because she had to go home late every day.

In the end, Wang Yue told Mei Shu that Lu Yan was preparing to go overseas and scolded her for being insensible and not being able to tell that Lu Yan was just being polite. She was embarrassing herself everywhere. Mei Mu, on the other hand, kept gaslighting her from the side, making Mei Shu feel even more inferior. She felt that she was not worthy of having an outstanding man like Lu Yan as her friend.

Mei Mu was right about one thing. Lu Yan was indeed a very outstanding young man, so with his status in Lin City, no matter no matter what he said, no one would dare to say anything about him. He didn’t need to use any false flattery just to please others.

The two of them chatted for a while more about their studies. Li Zhen had already ordered some food and sat beside Lu Yan.

There weren’t many people who could make Lu Yan speak properly. Li Zhen looked at Mei Shu’s delicate appearance and became curious about her. “Lu Yan, is this your friend?”

Only then did Lu Yan remember that he had yet to introduce the two to each other, so he briefly introduced them to each other.

Li Zhen gave people the impression that he was a sunny boy. When he smiled, it made people have a good impression of him. He was handsome, his grades were top-notch, and he played basketball well. This kind of person was most liked by girls in their student days. Lu Yan was not bad either, but his cold and domineering temperament was more popular among career women.

In her previous life, Mei Shu had also been attracted by Li Zhen’s hypocritical appearance and was deceived by his sweet words. However, she didn’t know that while he was dating her and enjoying her wholehearted devotion in love, he was secretly getting together with Mei Mu for money and benefits.

In this life, Mei Shu didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore. Facing Li Zhen’s enthusiastic greeting, her reaction was very cold. She only smiled politely and nodded slightly. Then, she continued chatting with Lu Yan.

Li Zhen didn’t seem to care. He sat at the side with his expression unchanged. From time to time, he could find a chance to chat and interject a few words. The content of his words didn’t feel stiff.

Mei Mu despised the food in the canteen and had always liked to eat outside. When she passed by the noodle shop and saw Lu Yan and Mei Shu eating noodles together, she could not help but clench her fists.

She had tried her best to please Lu Yan for five years, but he was still cold to her. Mei Shu could easily make Lu Yan treat her differently just by relying on their childhood friendship. In the end, she only had the advantage of time. If she and Lu Yan were childhood friends, how could Mei Shu sit next to Lu Yan?!

The more Mei Mu thought about it, the angrier she got. She ordered some noodles and walked straight to their table.

Mei Mu sat directly beside Mei Shu. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, looking very gentle and innocent. “Brother Lu Yan, Mei Shu, I didn’t expect to meet you here. What a coincidence.”

Lu Yan glanced sideways at Mei Mu and nodded expressionlessly. Mei Shu was unwilling to pay attention to her and continued eating her noodles without raising her head. The atmosphere froze for a moment.
