“Yanyan is sick?” Mei Shu squatted down, gently stroking his little face. “Indeed, he feels a bit feverish. How could he get sick out of the blue?”
Recently, the weather has been good, and Mei Yan has always been in good health. How could he suddenly get a severe fever?
Mei Yan blinked pitifully at her, “Maybe it’s because the air conditioner was set too low last night, and I had a headache this morning.”
He took a step forward, hugged Mei Shu’s neck, and deliberately leaned towards her ear, using a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Sister, do you think it’s because some jinx came to our house, so Yanyan got sick?” Amused by him, Mei Shu couldn’t help but laugh and playfully pat his head, “Don’t talk nonsense. If you’re sick, go back to your room and rest. You don’t have to study for today.”
Mei Yan showed a very regretful expression, “Actually, Yanyan wanted to persist a bit more, but since Sister said so, I’ll listen to Sister and lie down properly.”
“Well.” Mei Shu glanced at him, coolly saying, “1 didn’t expect our Yanyan to be so motivated now. Since you said that, I won’t force you, but I will supervise you to finish your homework tonight.”
“Sister!” Mei Yan immediately looked horrified and quickly covered Mei Shu’s mouth.
The siblings playfully interacted as if no one else was around, and others watched with joy, except for Mei Mu, who looked worried.
“Oh, by the way, 1 have a friend coming to our house for a quick visit.”
Suddenly remembering something, Mei Shu slapped her forehead, realizing she almost forgot about someone!
Upon hearing about the guest, Mei Yun quickly came out, “Why didn’t you say so earlier? Let the person in.”
Mei Shu had to turn around to open the door.
Mei Yan was still curiously staring at the door, but when he suddenly saw Lu Si’s face, his eyes widened dramatically, “Big liar!”
“Yanyan!” Mei Shu gently pinched his cheek.
Mei Yan hummed dissatisfiedly.
“It turns out that Master Si came to visit. Please come in!” Mei Yun didn’t expect Lu Si to come to the house in person and quickly and respectfully invited him to sit on the sofa. “Butler Zhao, quickly make the best tea to entertain Master Si!”
“Master Si?” Mei Mu stood dumbfounded on the side, shocked by this man’s stunningly handsome appearance.
Lu Yan’s appearance had some resemblance to Lu Si, but the two had completely different auras.
If Lu Yan was a cold and proud snow lotus, then Lu Si was an entirely aloof moon, making people feel unattainable but still unable to help but look up.
“Come and greet Master Si.” Mei Yun attached great importance to Lu Si’s visit and quickly waved to his sons, introducing them one by one.
When it came to Mei Yan, Lu Si’s eyes gradually deepened with a smile, “I’ve met this little guy.”
“You’ve met?” Mei Yun found it unbelievable. “Then Yanyan didn’t cause you any trouble, did he?”
“Of course not. Yanyan helped me a lot. It’s a long story but I don’t want to mention it today.” Lu Si smiled while taking the tea that Butler Zhao handed over and took a sip. “I came here to visit today too hastily, so I didn’t bring any gifts. Mr. Mei doesn’t mind, right?”
“Of course not. Your visit has already brought glory to our Mei family!” Mei Yun dreamed of establishing a relationship with the Lu family.
Thinking of this, he raised his hand and called Mei Shu to sit next to him.
“Thank you for taking care of Shu’er for me.”
“It’s no trouble at all. I’m just afraid Miss Mei won’t let me take care of her.” Lu Si smiled at Mei Shu.
Feeling neglected on the side, Mei Mu suddenly felt uncomfortable and asked with a hint of awkwardness, “Are you Lu Yan’s younger uncle?”
Lu Si seemed to notice this character in the living room only now, and raised his eyebrows in surprise, “Yes.”
Mei Mu couldn’t help feeling a bit stunned by the charm of this man, saying shyly, “You are a distinguished guest. 1’11 go inform the kitchen to prepare dinner for you.”
“Oh, right! My bad. Master Si probably hasn’t eaten yet, right?” Mei Yun thought Lu Si bumped into Mei Shu outside, after all, both the Lu family and the Mei family lived in the same residence community.
But Lu Si wickedly lifted the corners of his lips, “No need to trouble. I just had dinner with Miss Mei. I came this time specifically to be a porter for Miss Mei. Once the things are delivered, 1’11 leave.”
He pointed to the bag full of dolls next to him and then stood up, saying, “Miss Mei, won’t you see me off?”
“No.” Mei Shu lazily leaned on the sofa.
However, although she dared treat him this way, Mei Yun did not dare to let Lu Si leave alone. He quickly pushed his daughter’s hand and said, “Shu’er, go and see off Master Si.”
Mei Shu glanced at Lu Si as if looking at trouble, but before she could speak, Mei Mu, who had been standing awkwardly, spoke first, “Since my sister is unwilling, I will send Mr. Lu off on her behalf. I will also prepare a small gift for Mr. Lu.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Shu unconsciously frowned..
