“Then let him.” Mei Shu’s expression was cold and irritable.
Jiang He could tell she was in a bad mood and didn’t want to go. His gentle face turned more assertive. “Miss Mei, have you forgotten the extra help Lord Si has given you for such a long time? Besides inviting him for dinner, you’ve never really repaid him.”
He was willing to use moral pressure to make her agree to go and bring back Lu Si.
Mei Shu said with a cold face, “Can you make decisions on Master Si’s behalf? As long as I go with you tonight, can you write off the debt between him and me?”
Jiang He hesitated for a moment, but once the words were out, there was no turning back.
He could only bite the bullet and nod. “If Miss Mei can help Master Si stabilize his condition tonight, I’ll try my best to persuade Master Si not to disturb you again.”
“Very good.” Mei Shu put on a mocking smile. “What if you can’t do it?”
Jiang He said resolutely, “I will tell Master Si everything that happened tonight. Don’t worry. Our Master Si has never forced others to do anything for so many years. Since you are no longer willing to interact with Master Si, Master Si will definitely not pester you.”
“Remember what you said.” After Mei Shu looked at him coldly, she turned around, walked to the car, opened the door, and got in.
Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a heavy feeling in his heart that wouldn’t go away.
He had a feeling that Master Si wouldn’t let him off after knowing what happened tonight, but if he hadn’t said that, Mei Shu probably wouldn’t have gone with him.
This was even less to Master Si’s liking…
He couldn’t help but wonder what had happened during the ten minutes he had missed to turn two people who had seemed sweet and affectionate into this!
Jiang He kept a straight face all the way and quickly stopped the car at the entrance of the police station.
Mei Shu got out of the car without waiting for him to come around to open the door. As soon as the two of them appeared, a police officer immediately ran over as if relieved of a heavy burden. “You’ve finally arrived. Please take him away. He’s causing a commotion in our station!”
Jiang He and Mei Shu looked at each other and hurriedly ran into the lounge. Before they entered, they heard Lu Si’s atrocious voice inside.
“Let me out quickly. I want to see Sister. I want to find Sister Mei Shu!”
Hearing the noise, Jiang He immediately pushed the door open and entered.
Inside the lounge, several police officers were trying to appease a tall, adult man with various toys, making the scene look absurd and comical.
But Jiang He couldn’t find anything to laugh about.
This situation had escalated tonight, and he had no idea how to resolve it.
“Sister!” As soon as Lu Si saw her, his eyes lit up. He hurriedly pushed away the police officers who were blocking the way, ran to Mei Shu, and carefully took her hand. “Sister, you’re finally here to see Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao is tired and wants to go to sleep with you.”
For a moment, all the police officers left in the room turned to look at them in unison.
A helpless smile appeared on Mei Shu’s face. “Xiao Bao, be good. Come with me. I’ll give you candy.”
“Sister, why don’t you touch Xiao Bao’s head?” The man tilted his head and made a very puzzled and aggrieved expression.
Mei Shu softened her attitude when she saw Lu Si like this, and she reached out to gently pat his head. “Okay, okay. Sister patted you, right? Let’s go home. Xiao Bao hasn’t eaten yet. You must be hungry, right?”
The man rubbed his belly cutely and nodded adorably. “Xiao Bao wants to eat fish. Sister cooks it for Xiao Bao!”
“Okay, let’s go home and eat fish. Let’s go.” Mei Shu naturally extended his hand to him.
Lu Si immediately stuffed his big hand into Xiao Bao’s palm and put on a sweet smile. “That’s great. Sister is so good to Xiao Bao!”
“Then Xiao Bao, you must be good and listen to Sister. After dinner, you can go home with that brother over there.” While holding his hand, Mei Shu pointed at Jiang He who was staying in the lounge to deal with the follow-up matters.
However, this time, Lu Si refused to obey and stubbornly shook his head. “Xiao Bao wants to sleep with Sister like last time! I don’t want to go with the bad man!”
“Why do you say that Jiang He is a bad person?” Mei Shu was a little curious about that.
She also wanted to know why Lu Si was so resistant to Jiang He, even though he was the one closest to him.
Logically speaking, Jiang He was the person who had been by his side for the longest time!
Lu Si placed a hand on his lower lip, showing a cute, conflicted and bewildered expression, and it took him a while to stammer out, “Because that brother makes Xiao Bao very painful every time! Xiao Bao doesn’t like him, and Xiao Bao likes Sister!”
Very painful?
Mei Shu’s expression turned ferocious as she continued, “How did he treat you?”
“He dragged Xiao Bao into the car!”
As he spoke, Mei Shu pushed the big guy stuck in the car door to the seat.
Hearing Lu Si’s words, she instantly felt like a dirty-minded bully. She couldn’t help but sigh.. “Xiao Bao, you actually just want the candy 1 promised you, right?”
