“But if she really dies, then hiring any lawyer won’t be of any use, right?”
Mei Jing spoke with an unusually calm expression, as if he could already see his own future.
Mei Feng also fell silent.
Only Mei Yan maintained an optimistic attitude, saying enthusiastically, “Brother, if Mei Mu dares to report to the police, I’ll go and tell them that I stabbed her. Anyway, I’m underage, and the police can’t do anything to me!”
“Yanyan, don’t be foolish.” Mei Feng scolded him, but there was a warmth in his eyes.
Having such sincere brotherly affection, Mei Feng felt exceptionally fortunate.
Mei Jing also indulgently rubbed Mei Yan’s head, weakly smiling. “Yanyan, Brother knows your kind intentions, but this matter is not a joke. You don’t need to sacrifice your entire life for Mei Mu.”
“But Brother did it to protect me!” Mei Yan cried with grievance. “Brother, if they dare to arrest you, I will fight them to death. 1 won’t let anyone take you away!”
Mei Jing helplessly smiled, and a faint trace of the lively spirit returned to his eyes.
Outside the emergency room, Mei Shu was restless.
Lu Si, watching her, felt uneasy and couldn’t help but hold her hand, forcing her to sit down and calm down. “Don’t be afraid. The Lu family is influential; no one dares to oppose me. I will ensure the safety of your brother.”
“I’m not worried about that.” Mei Shu sighed. “1 just feel that although Xiao Jing is a bit mischievous and not mature enough in handling things, he absolutely wouldn’t be the kind of person to use a knife. How did that fruit knife end up in his hands?”
Lu Si thought for a moment. “There were many people present at the time. You can ask Butler Zhao to carefully recall the situation. People tend to overlook many details in moments of urgency. If everyone helps to remember, we should be able to figure out the origin of that knife.”
“Okay, i’ll go with your suggestion.” Mei Shu quickly contacted Zhao Yan, instructing him to ask each person separately.
Looking at Mei Jing, who had been sitting in a daze, Mei Shu couldn’t help but walk over, patting his shoulder. “Xiao Jing, I know you’re a good kid. Deliberately hurting someone is something you wouldn’t do willingly. Can you tell your sister why you took that knife at the time?”
Mei Jing’s mind was in turmoil now, but he was still trying hard to recall. “I only remember that Mei Mu and I were arguing fiercely at the time. I wanted her to apologize to Yanyan, and then she attacked me first. After that, Butler Zhao and others came to break it up, and Mei Mu still wanted to attack Yanyan.”
“I pushed her in urgency, and then she pounced on me. The knife was somehow shoved into my hands. I was afraid she would hurt Yanyan, so in a moment of impulse, I raised the knife to scare her. I really didn’t intend to hurt her! It’s Mei Mu who threw herself onto the blade!”
Mei Shu trusted Mei Jing very much, so she firmly believed what he said.
She believed that this was not an excuse her brother came up with to avoid responsibility.
If that’s the case, then everything that happened now was a trap set in advance by Mei Mu.
This crazy woman, did she want to risk everything just to drag Mei Jing down with her?
However, this still couldn’t explain the origin of the knife.
Mei Shu then asked Mei Feng and Mei Yan if they noticed anything at that time.
But Mei Feng came out later, and by the time he saw the scene, it was already too late.
And Mei Yan had been arguing with Mei Mu the whole time, emotionally charged, so it was impossible for him to pay attention to this detail.
“It seems we can rest assured for now.” Lu Si, who knew when, walked over, speaking with a relaxed tone.
Mei Shu looked at him strangely. “Rest assured about what?”
“Rest assured that Mei Mu won’t die.” Lu Si smirked, revealing a somewhat cold smile. “She’s not the kind of person who jokes with her own life. Just look at how she didn’t voluntarily reveal the truth about being the mastermind to reduce her mother’s sentence. She values her life greatly, so if she really orchestrated this accident, she definitely won’t die.”
Mei Shu felt that Lu Si’s analysis made sense.
Indeed, Mei Mu wouldn’t think of sacrificing herself just to die with Mei Jing.
Given her malicious nature from her past life, even if she wanted to die, she would set the villa on fire and take everyone with her!
Thinking this way, the pale color on Mei Shu’s face finally improved, and she realized that her hands were ice-cold.
Mei Yan also smiled, “Big liar, did you really not lie this time?”
Lu Si playfully bent down, pinching his nose. “Let’s make a bet. If 1 win and Mei Mu doesn’t die, you can’t call me a big liar anymore.”
“Then what should 1 call you?” Mei Yan eagerly followed his words.
Lu Si pretended to be contemplative and said, “Call me brother-in-law. That’s settled.”
Mei Feng watched their interaction, and there was a smile in his eyes.
Only Mei Jing still had a heavy look, unable to let go of his worries..
