Zhao He.

It took a moment for Mei Shu to finally recall this name from the corner of her mind.

She remembered him as Mei Jing’s good friend.

When Mei Shu was brought back from the countryside by Zhao Yan, she was determined to teach her younger brothers well. So she brought Mei Jing back home from the club. She had met Zhao He once at that time.

Thinking about it now, that was a long time ago.

Who would have thought that in just a few months, Mei Jing would no longer be the useless little rascal he used to be.

But now he was actually actively asking to learn racing.

Whenever Mei Shu thought about this matter, she couldn’t help but feel angry. “If you want to learn anything else, Sis can support you, but racing is too dangerous. I will never agree.”

“Sister!” Mei Jing pitifully held her hand and kept shaking it, acting cute. “Sister, please agree. I’ve already talked to the trainer, and I can officially start my racing career in the training camp next week!”

“Who agreed to this?” Mei Shu was so angry she directly shook off his hand. “I’ll tell your coach right now that you’re not going!”

Mei Jing also got angry and stood up directly. “I won’t listen! I must go next week! This is my own hobby. Sister, you always teach us to respect others. By being so dominant and demanding that 1 do something 1 don’t want to do, are you really respecting me?”

“I’m not disrespecting you.” Mei Shu felt helpless.

Now her brothers still carried that prophecy on their shoulders, and she couldn’t predict what would happen in the future.

Racing was too dangerous. He suddenly brought it up at this time. She didn’t know if that prophecy would be fulfilled because of this.

“Sister! Please listen to me this time. Let me go, your support means a lot to me.” Mei Jing sat beside her, seeming to perceive her panic, and was trying to comfort her.

Mei Shu could see that her brother really liked racing.

She sighed and made a difficult decision. “If you insist on going, then next week I’ll accompany you. You have to prove to me personally that you can really ensure your safety, otherwise, you have to obediently withdraw from the training.”

“Great, sister! Don’t worry, I won’t let you down!” Mei Jing jumped up excitedly and hugged her.

Mei Shu was almost suffocated by his embrace, feeling like a heavy stone was pressing on her chest, unable to relax.

When Lu Si came to see her in the evening, Mei Shu mentioned this matter.

She thought Lu Si would help her come up with some good ideas to make Mei Jing give up the idea of racing. But to her surprise, he agreed, “It’s good for boys to be more lively and play something they like. You can’t tie him to your side forever. He’ll have to learn to walk on his own.”

Mei Shu said solemnly, “But the prerequisite for walking on his own is that they won’t encounter danger again. If my decision leads to a tragedy in the future, then I will hate myself.”

Lu Si sat beside her and handed her a brochure from a racing training camp, “Here, take a look first. Then decide whether to really stop your brother from doing it.”

Mei Shu took the brochure with suspicion and asked, “You were prepared for this? You knew that Xiao Jing wanted to learn this?”

“It’s because you’re too immersed in work and don’t have time to pay attention to the outside world. This training camp has been popular in the circle recently, making many wealthy children interested in racing.”

“Your brother is not yet of legal age to formally compete. Even if he goes to training next week, it will only be to learn some simple theoretical knowledge, which is not dangerous at all.” Lu Si explained while pointing out some important parts in the brochure.

Mei Shu then realized how exaggerated her reaction had been just now.

But just because he couldn’t participate in formal races next week didn’t mean he wouldn’t in the future.

Mei Shu still couldn’t completely relax. “Why did Xiao Jing have to get obsessed with this? No, 1 must go and watch him train next week.”

Lu Si looked helpless, “Have you forgotten what you promised me?”

Mei Shu said, “I won’t be at ease unless I see it with my own eyes.”

Lu Si sighed lightly, not too surprised by her reaction, but said seriously, “Alright, I can agree to you going, but you must stay by my side at all times, cannot leave the wheelchair, and must behave. Right now, you are the one who needs more care than your brother!”

Mei Shu felt a little embarrassed by his words and carefully placed the brochure back on the bedside table, like a hamster hiding a treasure.

Lu Si couldn’t help but smile at her reaction, feeling a little itchy in his heart, wanting to do something to ease this itchiness.

But before he could do anything, Mei Shu turned around again and grabbed his collar, lifting her head to sniff, “Why is there no smell of alcohol at all? Or any other smell?”

“Hmm?” Lu Si raised an eyebrow slightly, a playful expression on his face, “What other smell do you want to smell?”

Mei Shu loosened his tie and smoothed it out with her small hands, “There was no one at the drinking party deliberately causing trouble for you?”
