“My sister is right, Guoguo, you don’t need to be afraid. If those girls dare to bully you again, just tell me. 1 must teach them a lesson!” Mei Jing said, rubbing his hands together.
Chen Guo’s face turned even redder. “Thank you, Ah Jing. If it weren’t for you, I really don’t know what to do.”
Mei Shu observed the interaction between the two with interest.
It turned out to be a classic hero-saves-the-beauty scenario.
No wonder this girl liked Xiao Jing.
It seemed that Mei Shu had misunderstood earlier. Chen Guo seemed to be a nice girl.
“By the way,” Chen Guo took a sip of her drink, as if trying to suppress her nervousness, then took a deep breath before initiating a conversation with Mei Shu. “Sister, you mentioned my father earlier. What happened to him?”
“He works as a chef in my house, and he really wants to see you.” Mei Jing quickly revealed the purpose of this meeting.
Mei Shu gave him a reproachful look.
Mei Jing was puzzled.
Mei Shu sighed, “If you really don’t want to see him, I’ll pretend we didn’t meet today. I won’t let your decision be known to your father.”
Chen Guo fell silent after hearing this. She lowered her head, lost in thought, and finally spoke in a cold voice, “How long has he been a chef in your house?”
“For a long time, several years.” Mei Jing thought for a moment but couldn’t come up with an exact number of years. She just gave a rough estimate.
Mei Shu spoke gently, “Actually, your father has always wanted to see you. The reason he hasn’t come to meet you is because he’s afraid you’ll be averse to his appearance. In his heart, he secretly hopes to see you.”
Chen Guo choked up, and when she looked up again, tears filled her eyes. “Sister, he’s my biological father. How could I not want to see him? But for so many years, I didn’t know where he was or why he refused to come and see me. He should have stayed in contact with Mom! I thought he despised me, a burden he wished to avoid for the rest of his life!”
“No, no, Uncle Chen definitely doesn’t think that way!” Mei Jing, after last night’s conversation with Chen Feng during dinner, had learned about Chen Feng’s character. That’s why he confidently spoke in support of him.
Hearing this, Chen Guo smiled through her tears. Under Mei Jing’s anxious gaze, she nodded and said, “Okay, I’m willing to see him. Do 1 need to visit the Mei family? Should I buy some gifts for All Jing and Sister’s parents?”
Mei Shu’s eyes dimmed for a moment and said, “No need. There are only my brothers and me at home. No need to buy anything. Since you’re willing, we’ll take you back after finishing this meal.”
Chen Guo was overjoyed. “Great! If my dad knew I’m willing to go see him, he would be so happy!”
“Well, let’s settle on that. Let’s finish our meal.” Mei Shu didn’t expect things to go so smoothly. She had thought that after so many years without seeing her father, Chen Guo might resist the idea. It seemed she had over-thought it.
This was clearly a very filial girl!
After dinner, Chen Guo followed Mei Shu and Mei Jing in a taxi back home.
Chen Guo looked uneasy, and Mei Jing comforted her by her side.
As the car entered the villa area, because Mei Shu had already informed them in advance, Zhao Yan was standing at the gate with Chen Feng who was anxiously looking around.
Seeing a taxi stop at their door, Zhao Yan hurriedly approached and took the initiative to open the car door for Mei Shu and Mei Jing. “Miss, next time, just say a word, and I’ll have the driver pick you up.”
They had so many cars at home and even hired a driver, so why bother taking a taxi?
Mei Shu smiled and said, “I’m used to taking a taxi. Next time, I’ll make sure to let the driver come and pick me up.”
After all, in her past life, the family driver never served her, so gradually, Mei Shu got used to coming and going on her own and forgot to instruct the driver to pick her up.
At the door, the moment Chen Feng saw Chen Guo, he was overcome with excitement, tears welling up in his eyes. He hastily took a couple of steps forward, seemingly wanting to embrace his daughter directly. However, he was concerned that she might resist, so his hands hesitated in midair, torn between advancing and retreating.
With a smile, Chen Guo took the initiative to hug her father. Father and daughter cried for a while, then went inside together with Zhao Yan’s persuasion.
Chen Guo happily held Chen Feng’s arm, quietly surveying the villa.
When she was still in school, Chen Guo had noticed the high-end brands Mei Jing used and the expensive clothes he wore. At that time, she knew Mei Jing’s family must be very wealthy.
But today, seeing this villa, she realized that Mei Jing was indeed a rich young master.
Thinking about it this way, she felt lucky for her foresight, and she chuckled to herself.
The others just thought Chen Guo was delighted to see her biological father after so many years, without thinking much about it.
Mei Shu let the two sit on the sofa and chat.
Chen Feng quickly expressed his gratitude to Mei Shu and then touched his daughter’s hair affectionately, saying, “I didn’t expect Guoguo to grow up so big now, and she’s even a classmate of Young Master Jing! You must be working hard in your studies!”
Chen Guo smiled and said, “Dad, let me ask you. You’ve been working as a chef in the Mei family for these years.. Isn’t it tiring?”
