Li Hua received the hint. When Mei Shu walked up to her, Li Hua dropped a sarcastic remark. “Mei Shu, it’s one thing that your grades are bad, but to like someone out of your league like Lu Yan, do you really think you can catch up with him? If I were you, with such a low ranking, I would feel inferior to myself whenever I see a top student like Lu Yan.”
The morning reading session had not yet started, and everyone was still chatting quietly with their classmates. When Li Hua finished speaking, many girls in the class looked at Mei Shu with disdain. In their eyes, Lu Yan was an unattainable mountain snow lotus, and no girl was worthy of him. They were as fanatical about Lu Yan as fans of male celebrities.
Mei Shu glanced at Li Hua and then saw Mei Mu, who was sitting at the desk behind her, grinning at her with satisfaction.
Mei Shu smiled sarcastically at Li Hua and said, “You’ve read books for more than ten years, and your grades aren’t bad. Why are these feudal ideas so deeply rooted in you? Having too much of a slave mentality is not good. You should strive to catch up with those who are better than you instead of avoiding them. You are promoting the wrong idea of avoiding difficulties here. If the homeroom teacher finds out…”
Mei Shu avoided Li Hua’s attempt to entangle her in a romantic relationship and make her the enemy of all the girls, intentionally diverting the topic.
In a key school in the city, the teachers still had a lot of influence. Li Hua was scared by the word “homeroom teacher” and stammered out excuses for herself. “Don’t label me randomly! I saw you talking to Lu Yan downstairs and I wanted to… wanted to, oh yeah, wanted to remind you not to start dating too early!”
Li Hua’s combat power was too weak, and Mei Mu cast a disdainful glance at her. Then Mei Mu stood up and walked to Li Hua’s side, looking at Mei Shu weakly. “Mei Shu, don’t misunderstand Li Hua. She is doing this for your own good. Some things are not yours, so there’s no use thinking about them. She’s afraid you’ll be heartbroken if you’re rejected.”
Mei Mu’s words were almost like saying that Mei Shu was trying to seduce Lu Yan.
Mei Shu pretended to be annoyed. “Mei Mu, you’re good at studying. Why do you look like a nerd? Can’t boys and girls talk normally now? Why are you making such a big deal of my normal talk with Lu Yan? If talking must be equated with flirting, you talk to the boys in our class every day! Are you seducing Kaiser?”
Mei Mu liked to use her appearance and the tricks she learned from Wang Yue to play with some boys all day long. When they couldn’t resist her seduction and wanted to confess to her, she would start sending the “good brother” card, saying she only saw them as brothers. This made many boys sad. Afterwards, they would be twice as good to Mei Mu, hoping to move her. But in the end, they only moved themselves.
Mei Shu’s words bluntly exposed Mei Mu’s behavior and successfully drew some of the classmates who already disliked Mei Mu to her side.
“Meimu, what Mei Shu said is not wrong! You can do it yourself, but it’s another thing when it’s put on someone else. It’s a bit hypocritical,” said one girl.
“Yeah! What’s wrong with talking between boys and girls? It’s not a feudal society. Are we going to be executed for it?” another girl chimed in.
Meimu looked at Mei Shu, who had easily turned the tables, and was furious. But she had to maintain her ladylike image and put on a pitiful look with tears in her eyes. “Mei Shu, how can you just attack anyone you see? I just can’t stand your misunderstanding of Li Hua’s kindness, so I spoke up.”
Anyone could act pitiful, Mei Shu thought, pretending to suddenly realize, “So you’re in cahoots! So you and Li Hua ganged up on me because I’m a new classmate. What did I do to you? Do you still want to bully me?”
No.1 Middle School had strict rules, and even quarreling could result in punishment, let alone bullying. The class leader had to step in.
Chen Hao stood up and yelled anxiously, “Stop it!”
Chen Hao looked at the instigator, his usually kind demeanor unable to suppress his anger. “If the homeroom teacher finds out, we’ll all be in trouble. Li Hua, stop stirring up trouble.”
Li Hua felt wronged. Last time it was because of Mei Shu’s fault that Mei Mu blamed her, and this time too!
As the students in the class had almost arrived, and morning reading was about to start, Mei Shu flashed a smile and said, “I’m ready to go for morning reading. You two can continue to perform your sisterly bond.”
