Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 22

Chapter 22

Wang Yue looked at Mei Yun coquettishly. “Don’t listen to this child’s nonsense. It’s all within my responsibilities. My greatest satisfaction is being able to let you develop your career outside with peace of mind.”

Mei Yun thoroughly enjoyed Wang Yue’s feminine demeanor. She was a completely different type from Bai Ling, who only acted that way when they were alone. Bai Ling was always proper and reserved, but he had married a wife, not a business partner!

Mei Yun looked at his wife and daughter sitting on his left and right and replied happily, “Your mother is a good woman. Of course I’ll treat her well.”

Mei Shu sneered in her heart. She wanted to vomit when she saw Mei Yun and Wang Yue looking at each other affectionately. From the corner of her eye, she saw Mei Mu raise her head slightly and stared at her provocatively. The corners of her lips curled up slightly.

Mei Shu deliberately shifted her gaze to the phone that Mei Mu had placed on the dining table. She looked at it as she ate, her eyes filled with envy. One could tell at a glance how much she wanted it.

However, because Mei Shu’s movements were not too conspicuous, she only turned her head slightly to look, which was just a natural, effortless gesture. When Mei Yun saw this, he didn’t think too much about it. He only asked her curiously why she was staring at Mei Mu’s phone.

Mei Shu looked shy and smiled. “I didn’t expect cell phones to be so popular nowadays. Even my sister has one, so I couldn’t help but take a curious look.”

After saying that, there was a hint of excitement on her face. “Cell phones nowadays are much more advanced than five years ago! I saw that Mei Mu can even use it to play games and watch videos. It’s simply like a small computer!”

Wang Yue became instantly nervous when she saw Mei Yun’s brow furrow tighter and tighter as Mei Shu grew more excited.

Nowadays, cell phones were inexpensive and very popular. In order to facilitate communication, most middle school students were equipped with cell phones, but Mei Shu only dared to look at Mei Mu’s cell phone.

At this moment, Mei Yun looked at Wang Yue with a hint of coldness in his eyes. Wang Yue also reacted quickly. She immediately revealed a big smile and said to Mei Shu, “It’s all my fault. I’ve been busy with my business lately, so I neglected these small matters.”

“Mei Shu, just tell me what you want and Auntie will arrange it for you right away. Your father is busy with big business. He can’t be distracted by these small matters.”

It was Wang Yue who treated Mei Shu and Mei Mu differently, but after she said this, it became Mei Shu’s fault for being selfish.

Mei Shu sneered inwardly, but immediately shook her head and explained anxiously, “I wasn’t asking for a phone. I’m just curious. There are few high school students in my rural hometown who have phones. I just find it amazing that everyone in my class seems to have one now.”

After Mei Shu finished speaking, her tone changed and she sounded a bit desolate. “I don’t want anything. I just want to stay with my dad, stay at home. It was too lonely in my rural hometown. Granny Wang was always out playing cards, and the old house was always empty with only me there… it was so empty.”

Wang Yue had always used a guise of fragility to achieve her desired goals against Mei Yun. Mei Shu was repeatedly defamed and framed by her in her previous life with this trick, and now it was her turn to use this tactic.

Mei Shu’s show of weakness instantly darkened the face of Mei Yun, who had previously thought that it was no problem not to buy a phone for Mei Shu. As the head of the prestigious Mei Corporation, his own daughter was the only one in the class without a phone!

Mei Shu looked so thin and weak. This little girl’s face was filled with sorrow. Comparing her to his other children, Mei Yun felt even more uncomfortable.

Mei Yun looked at Wangyue with a stern face and said, “What’s the matter with Old Wang? She was supposed to go to the countryside to take care of Mei Shu, but instead she went to enjoy her retirement?”

Wang Yue didn’t defend Old Wang. Instead, she looked shocked and then anger appeared on her face. “Wang Po is too much! How dare she do this to Mei Shu! I will go find her and settle accounts with her later!”

Old Wang was not a servant of the Mei family, but a distant relative of Wang Yue’s maternal family. Wang Yue called her ‘Aunt’ according to seniority. With this relationship, Mei Yun could not treat Old Wang like his servant, so he just suppressed his anger and said coldly, “Taking care of the family is your most important duty! If you don’t have enough energy, then transfer your shops!”

Although Wang Yue knew that Mei Yun’s words were just out of anger, they still made her face change drastically.

Mei Mu saw this and gritted her teeth, turning her head to glare fiercely at Mei Shu. The several shops of her mother were established with her utmost effort, and they were also the last reliance for her mother and her in terms of finance.

Mei Shu’s expression remained calm. She only lowered her head slightly, as if she didn’t know what to do.
