Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the lunch break, students gradually returned to the classroom and noticed Mei Mu.

Li Hua sneered and walked up to her desk in front of the entire class. Surprisingly, she raised her hand and swept everything off Mei Mu’s desk onto the floor.

“What are you doing?” Mei Mu couldn’t bear it any longer and stood up, pointing at the textbooks now covered in dirt on the floor. “Pick those up and clean them for me, or else we won’t be finished!”

“Not finished? Do you still think you’re the hotshot young miss of the Mei family?” Li Hua not only didn’t obey but also stepped on the clean cover with her foot, leaving a deep footprint. “Between us, I haven’t settled the score yet. How dare you come back to school and attend classes?”

Mei Mu was so angry her eyes turned red. When had she ever been insulted like this?

“Pick them up for me, apologize immediately, or I’ll go tell the teacher!”

Li Hua didn’t care. “If you want to tattle, go ahead. I bet your family has spent a lot for you to come back to school, right? If you keep causing trouble, guess if the school will just kick you out again?”

“You!” Li Hua’s words hit Mei Mu where it hurt.

Indeed, the school had set conditions for her to return.

Thinking of this, Mei Mu bit her lip in frustration, but she had no choice. She squatted down, picked up her textbooks, and cleaned them herself. Then, she sat back down and continued working on her paper.

Li Hua stood nearby, laughing, and said, “Hey, is this the same spoiled young miss who used to act high and mighty? You don’t look like your former self at all. Have you been possessed by a ghost or something?”

Mei Mu’s fingers, clutching the pen, turned blue, but she had to suppress her anger. She closed her eyes and treated Li Hua like air, focusing on her studies.

She vowed to teach this wretched person a lesson as soon as the college entrance exams were over.

Li Hua used to be Mei Mu’s lackey, following her around and doing her dirty work. Although it appeared as if she enjoyed some privileges on the surface, deep down, she despised Mei Mu’s hypocrisy.

Now she had finally found an opportunity for revenge and reveled in it.

She continued to harass Mei Mu for a while, then returned to her own seat just before the teacher arrived for class.

During this whole incident, not a single student spoke up for Mei Mu. They all watched with interest, enjoying Mei Mu’s tearful humiliation.

Mei Shu, however, watched for a while and felt something was amiss.

When had Mei Mu become so diligent?

She endured this humiliation and even continued working on her paper without losing focus?

Mei Shu thought for a moment and got a rough idea of the conditions the school had set for Mei Mu’s return.

She wrote a note and discreetly placed it on the desk of the class monitor, Chen Hao while the teacher didn’t pay attention.

The note suggested dividing the class into several study groups. Mei Shu had taken some notes from Lu Yan and had also summarized her own notes. She was willing to lend these materials to her classmates.

Mei Shu’s progress was evident to everyone, and Chen Hao had been curious about her methods for a while. Now, he had a chance to see Mei Shu’s notes firsthand, so he eagerly agreed and shared the proposal with the class on their group chat.

Mei Shu noticed his pleased expression and sent another note.

This time, Chen Hao saw that the study group proposal came with conditions.

That was that Mei Mu must not find out about it

Chen Hao understood Mei Shu’s reasoning.

After all, no one would readily help someone who had harmed them, especially when there was deep-seated resentment involved.

In the end, it was Mei Shu’s private matter, and even as the class monitor, he had no authority to interfere.

So, he agreed without hesitation and secretly created different groups excluding Mei Mu. He shared Mei Shu’s proposal with the students privately.

The students readily agreed.

They were no longer blindly idolizing Mei Mu. Now, in their hearts, they regarded Mei Shu as their goddess and had no intention of opposing her.

Moreover, it was an unexpected benefit for them!

The students all assured that they would keep the matter confidential.

Among them, the top-performing students were the most tight-lipped. Some of them had lower grades than Mei Mu, while others were only ahead of her by a few positions. They naturally hoped to achieve even better results in the college entrance examination!

While Mei Mu was studying hard on her own, several more efficient study groups had already been formed.

In addition to sharing Mei Shu’s notes, they also discussed problems, highlighted important points, and the entire class became more united.

The study atmosphere became intense, and even the unaware class teacher praised the students for their recent enthusiasm for study.

Soon, the next important exam arrived.

The students were all eagerly prepared, as if they were warriors ready for battle.

Mei Mu, too, was exceptionally confident about her own performance.

Her foundation was solid, and her recent self-assessments had yielded good results.. As long as she performed normally, getting into the top ten of her grade shouldn’t be a problem!
