Chapter 400: Inheritance Right
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Thinking of how miserable Mei Shu used to be in the countryside, Chu Rui couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head. ‘Miss, you flatter me. How can I expect to be your childhood sweetheart? You will definitely have better people to be with in the future.”
He made it sound as if Mei Mu was out of his league, but it was only natural that he met Mei Shu.
Mei Feng frowned and was a little dissatisfied. “My sister is the rightful eldest daughter of the Mei family. In the future, my father’s company will only be in my sister’s hands and have nothing to do with others.”
Chu Rui subconsciously looked in Mei Shu’s direction in shock.
He had always thought that Mei Shu was just an abandoned child of the Mei family. He didn’t expect Mei Shu to still retain such an important inheritance right.
If what Mei Feng said was true, wouldn’t Mei Shu directly inherit the company after graduation?
Without waiting for Chu Rui to verify it, the elderly lady retorted, “Your father is not dead yet! Who knows who the company will be handed over to in the future! You ingrates only know how to covet the family’s assets now. Your father has to listen to me in everything. In the future, he has to give the company to whoever I ask him to give it to!”
Mei Feng smiled mockingly and didn’t bother to argue with her.
She was just an old woman who didn’t know the law. She didn’t mean anything to him.
Chu Rui’s expression relaxed when he heard this, and a proud smile appeared on his face again. “Shu’er will definitely have a more suitable future for her. It’s meaningless to argue about this now.”
He knew it. How could Mei Shu be included in the list of heirs again?
In the end, she could only study hard like him and try to get into the best university within her ability.
However, Mei Shu wasn’t as lucky as him.
Although his family wasn’t rich, they didn’t have to worry about food and clothing. He had been studying hard since he was young, so he could achieve such results.
But Mei Shu was different from him. How long had she been studying?
Although she was arranged by her family to enter a key high school, her grades probably wouldn’t be good.
However, as long as Mei Shu was willing to be with him, he would take good care of her and let her stay at home in peace, doing housework for him, just like his mother.
He would never betray her and live a peaceful life with her.
Since the topic had been changed, there was no need to quarrel.
Unknowingly, it was already late at night.
Seeing that there were only a few hours before Monday, Mei Shu arranged for Chu Rui to stay at the Mei family’s house and instructed the driver to send him to the airport tomorrow morning.
After watching a movie, they yawned and dispersed.
Mei Shu personally sent Chu Rui back to his room to rest.
Before they parted, Chu Rui took out something from his pocket and gave it to her. “This is a hairpin 1 saw in the shop once. I think it’s quite beautiful, so I brought it over for you. If you like it, take it.”
“Thank you. 1 like it very much.” Mei Shu immediately put the hairpin on her head.
This was the style that Mei Shu used to adore during her innocent and romantic days. Even though she no longer liked it now, she was still willing to accept this gift carrying the nostalgic memories of friendship for her younger self.
Chu Rui looked at her and put on a sweet smile. “You’re as beautiful as 1 imagined.”
“Then I’ll leave first. Rest early. A driver will send you tomorrow.” Mei Shu was about to leave, but Chu Rui grabbed her arm.
She turned around in surprise. “What’s wrong? If you need anything else, just tell me. 1’11 help you prepare it.”
“No.” Chu Rui murmured and grabbed her arm, pulling her into the room.
Mei Shu was taken aback, but she didn’t struggle. “Do you have something to say to me?”
Chu Rui took a deep breath. “I’m leaving, but 1 have something to remind you.”
“What?” Mei Shu asked blankly.
Chu Rui suddenly widened his eyes and said with a firm expression, “You must keep a distance from Lu Si. He is rich and powerful. He doesn’t want to be with you sincerely. What you should do now is to study hard and strive to enter a university in the capital. Otherwise, we are too far away. I’m worried that something will happen.”
“Wait.” There were too many flaws in his words. Mei Shu didn’t know where to start for a moment.
She paused, then understood his true meaning. She looked at him with amusement and said, “So, you think if he’s wealthy and influential, it means his feelings aren’t genuine? Do you think he wouldn’t be interested in me?”
“Literally, Mei Shu, no one knows you better than me. 1 know your past and accept it. Only I am most suitable for you. How can a high and mighty big boss like Lu Si, who only knows how to spend money on others, be sincere to you?”
Chu Rui didn’t think there was anything wrong with his words at all.
In his opinion, even if Mei Shu was the eldest daughter of the Mei family now, she wasn’t close to her family.
From the elderly lady’s attitude towards her today, it could be seen how difficult Mei Shu’s life was at home..
