Chapter 362: Head of the Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Upon hearing Mei Yun’s words, Mei Mu trembled and quickly lowered her head to apologize to Mei Shu, “I’m sorry, sister. Please don’t argue with Grandmother because of me. I promise you, I won’t approach Mei He privately, and I won’t enter his room without permission. Can you feel at ease now?”

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Mei Mu’s cooperative attitude. “Alright, but you have to follow through. If I find you violating tonight’s promise, for the sake of Mei He’s condition, you’ll have to continue living outside and won’t be allowed to move back in.”

The old lady was about to retort to Mei Shu’s domineering terms, but Mei Mu preempted her.

“I understand, sister. Rest assured.”

Her compliance brought some relief to Mei Yun.

After all, she was his biological daughter. No matter how much he hated Wang Yue, he couldn’t bear to disown Mei Mu.

If she could stay in this house peacefully and not cause trouble again, he wouldn’t have really driven her away.

“Since we’ve agreed, Mumu, go back to your room and take a rest. By the way, your room shouldn’t have been tidied up yet. Butler Zhao, go help Mumu tidy up her room first.”

“Yes.” Butler Zhao glanced worriedly at Mei Shu, hesitated as if wanting to say something, but couldn’t speak openly in front of the old lady. He turned and went upstairs.

Mei Mu had changed a lot in front of Mei Shu, to the extent that she didn’t dare to meet Mei Shu’s eyes.

Mrs. Mei felt extremely distressed and quickly took her darling granddaughter’s hand, urging her to sit beside her. “Silly child, this is also your home. Why do you have to be so deliberate in pleasing others? With Grandma here, who dares to stop you from living in this house!”

“Grandma, please don’t say that.” Mei Mu, shedding another tear, said with understanding, “I’ve realized my mistakes now. I genuinely want to get along with my sister. So, no matter what demands she makes, I will unconditionally agree. Even if she asks me to move out today, I won’t be angry with her.”

The old lady touched Mei Mu’s head, looking at her son with a bitter expression. “Look at this. Your little daughter is so sensible now. Why bother holding onto a grudge? Do you have to force your own flesh and blood to death before you can feel at ease? As the head of the family, shouldn’t you stand up for your wife and daughter at a time like this?”

“Mom, that’s not what 1 mean.” Mei Yun just felt that this was unfair to Mei Shu.

Frankly speaking, it would be challenging for him to easily forgive Mei Mu for what she had done in the past.

Moreover, Mei Shu had suffered greatly from the consequences of Mei Mu’s actions, and the impact was immeasurable. He had no right to make decisions for Mei Shu, which was why he had been waiting in the living room with a stern face, wanting to hear Mei Shu’s opinion.

“But what do you mean then?” Mrs. Mei was completely biased towards Mei Mu. “Let me tell you, Mumu is my favorite child. If you dare to make her suffer, I’ll be the first to hold you accountable. And Wang Yue, spend some money to pull some strings these days. Get her out of prison quickly. What’s the point of making her stay there all the time?”

“No.” Mei Shu’s expression suddenly turned cold. “Wang Yue and Mei Mu are two completely different matters. Grandma, It’s already my limit to turn a blind eye to Mei Mu. If you insist on bringing Wang Yue back, then please take Mei Mu away tonight. Figure out a way to get Wang Yue out of jail on your own. At that time, the three of you can live together. Don’t come and disturb our lives!”

“Listen to this! These are the words your precious daughter says. Does it sound right to you?” The old lady, furious, pushed Mei Yun, who remained silent, “Are you dead or something? As the head of the family, shouldn’t you speak up for your wife and daughter? Are you going to let this girl trample over you?”

“Mom, stop talking!” Mei Yun only felt guilty when facing Mei Shu. He couldn’t say anything harsh to blame Mei Shu.

Besides, he wasn’t at home during this period of time. Mei Shu took care of everything in the Mei family.

Moreover, he had noticed Mei Shu’s capabilities during this period. Her abilities far exceeded what her current age should possess.

Most of the company’s shares were in Mei Shu’s hands, and with Mei Shu coming of age soon, when her inheritance right to Bai Ling’s heritage took effect, the entire Mei family would truly belong to Mei Shu. Even he, as her father, could only request things from her on the grounds of affection but couldn’t dictate things as before.

Of course, this also included whether Mei Mu had the right to continue living at home.

However, the old lady didn’t understand all this. She only knew that Mei Shu was an inexperienced little brat who shouldn’t be pampered by Mei Yun.

“Why can’t I say that? Look back at what the Mei family was like before you brought Mei Shu back. Look at it now. She’s causing harm to you!””

Mei Shu couldn’t help but laugh at this statement.. “Grandma, are you implying that it’s my fault that Wang Yue sent someone to rape me? Is it my fault that Mei Mu stole money and framed me? Is it my fault that she publicly slandered me by accusing me of cheating on the exam?”
