Rich Daughter Reincarnates as Her Eighteen-Year-Old Self to Rescue Her Younger Brothers!-Chapter 15
Chapter 15
Li Hua happened to see Mei Shu’s disdainful expression. As a qualified lackey, she immediately shouted, “Mei Shu, what did you mean by that disdainful expression just now? Are you looking for trouble?!”
Mei Shu turned around and replied coldly, “I’m just passing by. Why? Can’t I even have an expression? Is our class going to have a feudal system? Is Mei Mu going to be the queen?”
Li Hua originally just wanted to perform well in front of Mei Mu, hoping that she would be brought along to a gathering of rich second-generation heirs in the future. Thinking about how she didn’t retort when she mocked Mei Shu last Friday, she thought that Mei Shu was easy to manipulate. Now, she realized that the Mei Shu wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
Li Hua braced herself and said, “I didn’t mean that. Stop exaggerating! I just can’t stand seeing you secretly making those small expressions in front of others. I can’t stand it anymore and said it in front of everyone!”
Mei Shu looked at Mei Mu indifferently. “Mei Mu, your long hair and eyebrows are quite good. Can you tell us the names of these shops? I think everyone is quite interested.”
Mei Shu was talking about the shop where she bought the wig. Mei Mu naturally sensed that there was an underlying meaning in Mei Shu’s words. She had originally been looking forward to watching the scene unfold, but now she became tense and didn’t even notice why Mei Shu turned to threaten her instead of confronting Li Hua when Li Hua picked a fight with her.
On the first day of wearing a wig to class, Mei Mu was already worried about being exposed. Now she also had to guard against Meishu, who might try to find fault with her. The joy that she had just experienced from being admired by everyone was now gone. She looked at Li Hua seriously and coldly said, “Li Hua, this new student is just passing by. Don’t make baseless accusations against others!”
Mei Mu wanted to keep her relationship with Mei Shu secret. She naturally wouldn’t reveal it if Mei Shu didn’t bring it up herself. The halo of being the heiress of the Mei Corporation should only be worn by her alone!
Li Hua didn’t know the implications of this and only knew that when she had done such things in the past, Mei Mu not only wouldn’t get angry but would also give her some small trinkets afterwards. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have done something that would offend others.
Now that she saw Mei Mu’s reaction, Li Hua also felt very aggrieved. However, when she thought about how she had a favor to ask, she didn’t dare to say anything.
Noticing a trace of resentment flash across Li Hua’s face, Mei Shu smiled. She didn’t waste any more time on this matter.
During morning reading, she took out the math exercise book that the math teacher had organized for her and started studying according to her own learning plan from the first class.
The bell for the last class in the morning rang.
[Master, we need to trigger a new character. Please have lunch outside the school.]
Upon hearing Little Eight’s guidance, Mei Shu had no choice but to give up going to the canteen and leave the school. The only benefit of her return was probably that she had money in her hands now.
After Mei Shu returned to school in Lin City, Wang Yue reluctantly had to provide her stepdaughter with regular food expenses. Otherwise, if people found out that she was managing the household but not even providing her stepdaughter with money for meals, those wealthy wives who already looked down on her for being a home-wrecker would have more fodder for gossip.
Little Eight didn’t specify a restaurant, so Mei Shu went to a random noodle restaurant and ordered a bowl of noodles. When she turned around, she saw an old acquaintance.
Lu Yan looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief. “Mei Shu? When did you come back?”
Mei Shu smiled and replied, “Lu Yan, long time no see. I just came back a few days ago.”
Lu Yan, the same age as Mei Shu, grew up together with her, and since his mother Jiang Miao had a good relationship with Bai Ling, they were somewhat close. The Lu family’s villa was located in the same neighborhood as the Mei family, but even in this small community, there was a hierarchy of disdain.
The Mei family was relatively new to wealth, and their villa was located in the front row of the community. The farther back the location was in the community, the more serene the environment and the larger the land area. As the developer of the entire villa community, the Lu family occupied the best location in the entire community, and everyone else was scrambling to squeeze into the Lu family’s villa area, hoping to get closer to them.
It was said that the customer was king, but in Lin City, the Lu family was the king of the gods. The Lu family was an old and established family in Z country, and the Lu family in the capital was the main branch, while the Lu family in Lin City was considered a collateral branch with slightly closer blood ties. Based on their status, they could change the entire Lin City.
Those who were wealthy and powerful and wanted to further their connections with the Lu family would do anything to squeeze into this villa community, to flatter the Lu family in Lin City, trying to get to know people in the capital through them.
