Chapter 1482: Something Happened to Mei HongEditor: Henyee Translations
When the kid saw the concierge, he immediately retracted his hand.
Then, he asked hesitantly, "Is this Shao Qingyuan’s house?"
"Yes, who are you looking for?"
"I, I’m looking for Boss Gu." The kid took a small step back uneasily.
Tong Shuitao, who was walking to the door, happened to hear this and immediately asked, "Who are you? Why are you looking for our Miss?"
"I’m Mei Hong’s brother, Mei Lin."𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Mei Hong’s younger brother?
Tong Shuitao thought about how Mei Hong didn’t come today and quickly let this kid enter first.
Mei Lin swallowed his saliva and walked through the door hesitantly. He looked extremely nervous.
It was a cold day and he was dressed bloated like a ball. The clothes did not seem to fit him well. There were several thin cotton clothes put together.
However, everybody could tell that he was very thin and weak. His face was red from the cold wind, his lips were a little dry and cracked, and his eyelashes were stained with frost.
When Gu Yundong walked out, she saw the kid standing in the courtyard with his neck hunched.
When he saw her, Mei Lin’s eyes lit up slightly. He took a step forward and quickly stopped.
"You’re Mei Hong’s younger brother? She didn’t come today. What happened?" Gu Yundong asked.
Mei Lin nodded repeatedly. "Something happened to my elder sister, and she can’t come over to study for the next two days. So, she asked me to come over and apply for leave from Boss Gu. My elder sister said that Boss Gu can deduct the salary for these two days. She will work twice as hard in the future."
As he spoke, Mei Lin carefully glanced at Gu Yundong and added, "Boss, Boss, can you not fire my elder sister? She didn’t deliberately not come to study. Something really happened. Otherwise, Boss, look at me. I can help Boss work during the two days when my elder sister is not around."
He patted his chest and straightened his back slightly.
Gu Yundong frowned but did not agree. She only asked, "What happened to Mei Hong?"
"No, it’s nothing. I’ll be fine in two days."
"If you don’t tell me the truth, I’m going to fire her." After spending some time with her, Gu Yundong more or less understood Mei Hong’s character. She knew that she would not take leave unless she had no other choice.
Not only was she on leave this time, but she also refused to come in person. It seemed a little serious for his brother to brave the snow and wind to come over.
Upon hearing Gu Yundong’s words, Mei Lin immediately became nervous. "Don’t, I’m telling the truth. My elder sister was injured by the beam."
"The beam??"
"Yes." As Mei Lin spoke, his heart ached. Slowly, he became sad and choked up. "Yesterday, it snowed very heavily. The roof was piled with snow and suddenly collapsed, hurting Big Sister."
"Isn’t that very serious? She still wants to rest for two days before coming over?" Gu Yundong could not help but raise her voice.
Nanny Xia and the girls in the room had also heard the commotion. They walked out and happened to hear the conversation.
When Mei Lin heard this, he was instantly vexed. He should not have said so much. Before he left, Big Sister had clearly instructed him not to say anything unnecessary. Why did he not remember?
Seeing that there were more and more people in the courtyard, Gu Yundong’s frown deepened. Mei Lin panicked. He felt that he had messed up.
He had let Big Sis down.
In order to prevent himself from making more mistakes, Mei Lin immediately bowed to Gu Yundong and said nervously, "She’ll recover in two days. She really can recover in two days. It’s not serious. My elder sister will definitely come in two days. I-I’ll leave first."
With that, Mei Lin turned and ran.
