Chapter 109: Question Mei Mu
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The several shops she had in her hands had not yet started making profits, and there were many urgent expenses to cover.
Two hundred thousand was already all she could use.
If she needed more, she might have to ask Mei Yun for money.
But how could Mei Yun be willing to provide such money?
In her heart, Wang Yue cursed Mei Shu again.
If it weren’t for Mei Shu’s affairs, she wouldn’t be extorted by the school now!
But her daughter must not go to the police station. Otherwise, her future would be ruined.
Whether she could come up with the money or not, she had to raise the required amount and give it to the school.
After much contemplation, Wang Yue gritted her teeth and said, “Just give me a price.”
The grade director calmly responded, “Three million.”
Wang Yue raised her head in shock, clearly not expecting him to have such a large appetite!
Three million! How could she come up with that much money?
Seeing her reluctance, the grade director smiled and reassured her, “You can rest assured that this money will be used for the construction of our school and will definitely not be embezzled. This can also be considered your Mei family’s goodwill toward our school.”
With a heavy heart, Wang Yue stiffly nodded, “Fine, as long as it ensures my daughter’s safety, 1 will bring the money to the school tomorrow.”
“In that case, everything will be much easier.” The grade director happily led Wang Yue back to the office.
Seeing the grade director’s expression, the police knew that they couldn’t take Mei Mu away today.
The grade director didn’t wait for the police to ask. He went over and whispered a few words, then eagerly offered a cigarette.
Of course, the police didn’t accept his gift. Since the school was not pursuing the matter any further, there was no point in them staying.
Besides, Mei Mu was still a minor and a student about to take the college entrance examination; they didn’t want to go overboard with her.
Seeing that the police seemed to be loosening their stance, Wang Yue was immediately grateful and praised them profusely before finally sending them away.
During the process, Mei Mu had been huddled in a corner, staring at the ground, lost in thought.
The office finally regained its tranquility. The grade director saw the police off and then asked Wang Yue to take Mei Mu home.
Mei Mu followed Wang Yue home in a daze.
Three million was not a small sum of money. Wang Yue definitely couldn’t come up with it on her own. In order to deal with her daughter’s situation, she could only take a risk and go to Mei Yun’s study.
In the safe were valuable items from the house.
Wang Yue picked a piece of jewelry at random and unexpectedly sold it for five million. She was overjoyed.
She wrote a check for three million and personally brought it to the school. The remaining two million was secretly stored in her own account.
With this money, she could renovate her several shops again.
In the evening, the first thing Mei Yun did when he returned home was to find Mei Mu and hold her accountable.
Wang Yue had long been prepared for this and specifically told Mei Mu to stay in her room and not come out. She would deal with Mei Yun’s wrath alone.
“Honey, this matter must be a misunderstanding! Can you believe that Mumu would do such a thing? When has she ever done anything like stealing?”
Hearing Wang Yue say this, Mei Yun hesitated for a moment and slowly walked to the sofa, saying, “Call her out to see me. I want to talk to her in person.”
“Mumu was frightened today and is not feeling well. She has fallen asleep already.” Wang Yue hurriedly walked to Mei Yun’s side and carefully attended to him.
Mei Yun also doubted the truth of this matter. Hearing Wang Yue’s words, his anger was gradually replaced by doubt.
He was most aware of how much pocket money he gave Mei Mu each month. Wang Yue’s words also made sense – Mei Mu had no reason to steal just for a small amount of money.
Seeing his hesitation, Wang Yue was delighted and continued to exaggerate, “I also asked the teacher about this matter. Originally, they suspected Mei Shu at first, but somehow it implicated Mumu.”
“This matter is related to Mei Shu too?” Mei Yun frowned and suddenly stood up, “No, I must ask Mei Mu myself.”
“Honey! Our child is not feeling well. Why don’t you wait until she is better to ask?” Wang Yue hurriedly stopped him.
Mei Mu’s emotions were unstable now, and she was afraid Mei Mu would say something wrong in front of Mei Yun.
After all, Mei Yun had been doting on Mei Mu since childhood. How could he not be concerned?
Moreover, this matter was indeed questionable.
Mei Yun was just about to sit back and continue thinking about it, but to his surprise, Mei Yan, who had returned home early after school, appeared at the stairwell, looking at Mei Yun with a smile, “Dad! Sister Mumu is watching TV and ignoring me. I want to ask her a question. Can you talk to her for me?” “What?” Mei Yun got angry and stood up abruptly, glaring fiercely at Wang Yue, “Didn’t you say she’s not feeling well? With such a big matter happening, she is now hiding like a turtle. I think you’ve spoiled her too much! No! 1 must get an explanation from her today!”
“Honey, don’t go!”
Unfortunately, Wang Yue’s attempt to stop him was in vain.
Furious, Mei Yun pushed Wang Yue to the ground and stormed upstairs without looking back.
Behind him, Mei Yan’s lips curled up triumphantly.
This woman slandered his sister again; no one will have it easy now!
