Chapter 265: Leave It to You
Wu Mei secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The person who came was really her savior.
She hurriedly stood up. When she opened the door, she realized that it was not the servant who was delivering the lunch, but Li Nanchen.
Li Nanchen stood at the door for a long time, thinking that he could hear the sounds in the room. However, there was no sound at all.
Afraid that Wu Mei wouldn’t be able to handle the stubborn Mother Wu by herself, he became especially worried and couldn’t help but knock on the door.
Wu Mei was surprised. “What are you doing here? I thought you were waiting for me downstairs?”
In Mother Wu’s room, Mother Wu asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s Nanchen!” Wu Mei replied.
Li Nanchen neatened his clothes and pushed open the door. “Auntie, it’s me. The servants have already prepared the food. Do you want to go downstairs now?”
Wu Mei quickly held Li Nanchen’s hand. “We’ll eat in the room.”
Li Nanchen winked at her, hinting at her to relax. He smiled at Mother Wu and said, “Auntie, we haven’t eaten yet.”
How could Mother Wu not see through Li Nanchen’s thoughts? Her gaze landed on Li Nanchen and Wu Mei and she smiled lightly. “I’m hungry too. Let’s go downstairs together.”
Wu Mei was very surprised.
Li Nanchen actually learned to please his elders, and Mother Wu was especially cooperative.
Wu Mei held Mother Wu’s arm and they went downstairs together. Bi Fang was sitting at the dining table pitifully.
When Bi Fang saw them, he immediately stood up and smiled. “Auntie, do you want to drink something hot…”
Li Nanchen rudely interrupted Bi Fang and said to Mother Wu, “Auntie, come downstairs slowly.”
At the dining table, Li Nanchen and Bi Fang exchanged banter. It was very lively and made Mother Wu much happier.
Wu Mei guessed that Li Nanchen’s idea was to distract Mother Wu.
There was no need!
Wu Mei looked at Mother Wu, who had finished eating, and asked secretively, “Mom, should I tell them?”
Li Nanchen looked at Wu Mei uncomprehendingly and then at Mother Wu. “Auntie, what do you want to tell us?”
Mother Wu thought for a while and placed the cup aside. She rubbed her fingers uneasily. “I know that Mei’er believes you, so I can tell you about this.”
Why was she so secretive?
Mother Wu repeated what she had discussed with Wu Mei before explaining what she wanted to do.
Not only did she not want to cover up for Wu Pang, but she also wanted to hand the recording to the police. This was something that had never happened before.
After she finished speaking, she felt relaxed.
“Of course, your ideas should be better than mine. You guys can make the final decision.”
Li Nanchen’s current mood was the same as Wu Mei’s back then. However, he did not express his opinion immediately. Instead, he immediately speculated about who had contacted Mother Wu.
Wu Mei thought for a while. “Mom, I think…”
Mother Wu misunderstood their thoughts and thought that they were afraid that she would regret it.
She looked at Wu Mei with an apologetic expression. Because of her stubbornness and cowardice, she had become more and more indulgent of Wu Pang’s appetite, so much so that when Wu Pang couldn’t get what he wanted, he took the risk to sell drugs.
“Don’t worry, I won’t change my mind. I won’t let Wu Pang, who wants to bring down the Wu Corporation, off the hook.”
Wu Mei glanced at Li Nanchen and saw that he was frowning. She thought about it seriously and suggested, “Mom, you’ve misunderstood. I’m only considering other possibilities. I think we should wait. Perhaps we can find other clues.”
Li Nanchen agreed, “Auntie, this matter is very serious. Let us handle it.”
Mother Wu was secretly relieved. If she had to call the police herself and ask them to arrest Wu Pang, she would not be able to do it.
She looked lovingly at Wu Mei, who was sitting opposite her. She finally realized how wonderful it was to have her family by her side. There was no need for her to shoulder everything by herself. Everyone could discuss it together.
“Nanchen, I feel very assured to leave it to you.” Mother Wu knew that Li Nanchen was very capable. Leaving it to him was the most suitable.
“Mother, why are you only praising him and not me?” Wu Mei pretended to be unhappy. “I did better.”
Bi Fang looked at their loving family of three and wanted to hug his pitiful self.
He had once traveled around the world. Suddenly seeing the warm atmosphere of their home, he felt really envious.
Li Nanchen noticed Bi Fang’s expression and looked at him suspiciously. He pursed his lips and sneered, “Doctor Bi, what’s wrong with you?”
Bi Fang frowned, his expression unnatural. He said pitifully, “I feel so lonely.”
Wu Mei rarely saw Bi Fang sad. Just as she was about to stand up, Li Nanchen held her hand.
Bi Fang lowered his head and continued, “I’m all alone. I want a home too.”
Wu Mei was shocked. She joked, “Doctor Bi, you can also have a family and career.”
Bi Fang looked up and stared at Wu Mei blankly. “I have a career, but I have to find a girlfriend first.”
Wu Mei couldn’t help but stare at Bi Fang and ask, “You envy us, right?”
Bi Fang didn’t deny it. “Of course I’m envious, especially since you have such a good mother.”
Wu Mei threw a piece of tissue to Bi Fang and Bi Fang caught it.
How could she not realize that Bi Fang was pretending to be pitiful and innocent?
