700 Pushing the Blame

“No.”

Mei Shu replied without hesitation.

Mei Ye gritted his teeth and nodded, taking out a pre-prepared agreement from his pocket and placing it in front of Mei Shu. “Since you’ve made up your mind, then sign this contract. From now on, our Mei family has no relationship with you. Whether you live or die, it has nothing to do with us. Don’t expect to come to us for help, and we won’t treat you as a relative or junior anymore!”

“Alright.”

Mei Shu seemed to have been waiting for this moment.

She decisively took out a pen to sign.

Seeing Mei Shu’s determination, Pan Hua thought she might be plotting something. She quickly stopped her and pulled Mei Ye aside, whispering, “Second Brother, is there something fishy about this? Mei Shu doesn’t care about family ties at all. She must be planning something against our Mei family! She’s so resolute now, does she have some business opportunity to make a fortune, planning to keep all the profits for herself?”

Mei Ye patted her shoulder to calm her down, “Sister-in-law, that’s impossible. What ability does she have to make big money? She’s just an eighteen-year-old girl. I think in a few years, the Mei Corporation will be ruined in her hands. By then, we can’t be burdened with her debts!”

Pan Hua thought carefully for a moment but still felt that this matter was too hasty. “No, she still has connections with the Lu family. If we cut ties with her now, we might lose a lot of benefits.”

“Oh, you don’t need to worry about that,” Mei Ye reassured her. “I’ve already inquired about it. Lu Si’s own grandfather, Mr. Lu, doesn’t even care about Mei Shu. Moreover, I heard they made a gambling agreement. If Mei Shu loses, she’ll lose everything! I don’t want to risk our money with Mei Shu!”

“What? There’s such a thing! She dared to gamble with Mr. Lu? Is she crazy?” Pan Hua’s malicious gaze fell on Mei Shu, with a hint of schadenfreude.

Mei Shu raised her teacup, smiling without saying a word. Little did these two know, Mei Shu had heard every word clearly.

Pan Hua continued, “Well, this works out perfectly. Let’s cut ties with her now. If she really loses money in the future, we won’t be involved!”

Mei Ye earnestly advised, “Big sister-in-law, you’re thinking right! Although our family business isn’t huge, it’s still profitable. There’s no need to get involved in Mei Shu’s mess. Besides, she doesn’t acknowledge her relatives, and she doesn’t have any respect for us elders.”

After his repeated persuasion, Pan Hua finally gave up on the idea of continuing to rely on Mei Shu for money.

She walked over with Mei Ye and placed the agreement in front of Mei Shu again. “Mei Shu, think carefully. Once you sign this, we’ll be strangers. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’re only eighteen. Who knows what might happen in the future? You won’t even have anyone close by. But if you bow down and beg us now, we can still give you a chance to show your remorse.”

“No need to think.” Mei Shu picked up the document, carefully checked each clause to ensure there were no hidden traps, and then decisively signed her name.

Mei Ye frowned slightly, feeling a bit uneasy.

Could Mei Shu really have found a way to make big money and did this to shake them off?

But he quickly dismissed the thought.

Mei Shu hadn’t made any big moves recently. It was unlikely for her to suddenly become wealthy. Moreover, she was just an ignorant girl. Running a company was beyond her abilities.

Now that the Mei family hadn’t collapsed was because of the foundation Mei Yun had laid down before. In a while, the Mei family would definitely encounter problems!

With these thoughts in mind, Mei Ye solemnly took the contract and put it in his pocket. “Remember what you said today. Don’t come looking for us again.”

“Even if you beg me in the future, I won’t forgive you. I won’t recognize you as my granddaughter again!” Pan Hua added maliciously before leaving, casting a disdainful glance at Mei Shu.

Meanwhile, Tang Mei had been waiting outside. When she saw the two coming out, she wanted to go in.

Unexpectedly, Mei Ye suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at her suspiciously, and asked, “Are you Tang Mei?”

Tang Mei remained expressionless. “Yes.”

“Are you the one who conspired with Mei Shu to frame my son?” Mei Ye’s expression turned hostile, as if he was ready to hold her accountable.

Tang Mei remained calm and composed. “You’ve misunderstood. No one conspired against your son. He brought this upon himself. Every crime he committed, kidnapping, extortion, all violated our country’s laws. If he hadn’t done these things, I believe no one would have been able to frame him. As his father, your top priority now shouldn’t be blaming others, but figuring out how to repay your son’s debts!”

Mei Shu lazily followed them out, leaning against the door. “Did Second Grandpa understand? Take care. I won’t see you off.”
