Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 27
Chapter 27
Mei Jing casually turned around and saw that there seemed to be something else in the bag that Mei Shu was holding, probably another gift. He smiled slightly and shifted his attention back to his phone. Even when his gaming character died, he didn’t show any signs of frustration.
For the past two days, Mei Shu had not been paying attention to Mei Yan’s progress in studying. So, she had a chat with him and then started checking his homework this week and prepared to sign it.
After Mei Jing finished a round of games, he realized that Mei Shu’s attention was still on Mei Yan. He coughed lightly but no one paid attention to him.
Mei Jing turned his body and sat up, making some louder noises..
Mei Shu turned around and glanced at him in confusion. Then, she turned around and continued to ask Mei Yan about his study plan for the next week.
Mei Jing was so angry that he fell back onto the bed. Mei Shu smiled secretly.
Mei Yan explained his study plan and looked up to see the gift Mei Shu had given him. He hesitated for a moment and curiously asked, “Don’t you have any pocket money in the countryside? And why haven’t you come back for so many years? Don’t you miss home?”
When Mei Jing heard Mei Yan’s question, his hand that was playing the game paused, and his ears involuntarily pricked up.
Mei Yan’s question reminded Mei Shu of her memories from her previous life. She looked at Mei Yan and gave a faint smile before answering in a low voice, “You were still young back then, and of course I wanted to come back to take care of you all. But all the money was in the hands of Old Wang, and sometimes I couldn’t even afford a decent meal, let alone coming back.”
Mei Jing furrowed his brow tightly. Due to their mother’s death, he had resented his elder sister in the past. However, every Chinese New Year, he couldn’t help but ask Wang Yue if his elder sister would come home for the holiday. But every year, Wang Yue would say that Mei Shu was not in a good mood and preferred the freedom of life in the countryside, so she didn’t want to come back.
Wang Yue was indeed nice to them on the surface, giving them money when they needed it and letting them play when they wanted to. But in fact, as their older brother had said, she was using sweet talk to deceive them. He wasn’t like his little brother, Mei Yan, who didn’t understand anything and couldn’t see through these tricks.
Only that their mother was gone, their sister didn’t come back, and their father was like a passerby, appearing occasionally. Only when he immersed himself in enjoyment, did he not have to face this home that was no longer a home.
Even if it was just a short escape, it would be good.
In the previous life, Mei Jing began to indulge in games and the pleasure brought by seducing women. These were things he could easily control and do well, and the feeling of success attracted him deeper into the addiction. And Wang Yue saw Mei Jing’s inner weakness, so she could easily lead him astray.
Mei Shu was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses. Seeing Mei Yan looking at him with concern, he felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Mei Shu smiled and stroked Mei Yan’s hair. “It’s all in the past. We’ll get better and better in the future.”
After saying that, Meishu took out the gift from the bag on the ground and handed it to Meijing, then smiled and said, “Here, your gift.”
The anger in Mei Jing’s emotions had already completely shifted when he heard the conversation just now. After his thoughts were interrupted by Mei Shu, he looked at her with a complex expression. However, when he took the game console and looked down to see what it was, he was pulled out of the unknown emotion from earlier and excitedly opened the packaging box.
Mei Jing glanced at Mei Shu, opened his mouth a few times, and finally said two words, “Thank you.”
Mei Shu smiled and said, “You’re welcome. You can play the game console for three hours a day on weekends, and I’ll keep it for you during weekdays.”
Mei Jing widened his eyes and said rebelliously, “If you give it to me, it’s mine. I can play it however I want without you taking care of it.”
Mei Shu didn’t give Mei Jing any time to react and continued with some big news, “Starting tomorrow, you will come back home every day. Today, you will write a study plan. Your goal is to catch up with the current learning progress and make a weekly plan for this semester. Then, on Sunday of each week, you will write a daily plan for the next week, and show it to me in the evening.”
“By the way, I’ll have the maid bring your entertainment equipment in your room and the living room to my place later. If you can efficiently complete your tasks before 10am each day, you’ll be rewarded with an hour of game time for that day.”
It was not that Mei Shu was too eager, but there was not much time left before the college entrance examination, and the school she wanted to attend was in the capital city, which meant she had less than five months in Lin City. She was not worried about her oldest younger brother because he wasn’t influenced by Wang Yue and Mei Mu to go astray, but she was worried about the remaining three younger brothers who have been somewhat affected.
