Chapter 53: A Striking Contrast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mei Shu:
...She suspected that the system was taking the opportunity to mock her, but she had no evidence!
Reluctantly accepting this extremely useless skill, Mei Shu planned to try it out another day.
The next day, classes proceeded as usual.
Mei Mu and Mei Shu took the same car and attracted the attention of other students when they got out of the car.
The incident at the banquet was too big to cover up; now everyone in school knew about Mei Mu’s cousin and Li Hua openly engaging in inappropriate behavior in such a serious setting!
Mei Mu felt ashamed, but she didn’t want Mei Shu to feel triumphant. She intentionally acted affectionate, linking her arm with Mei Shu’s. In reality, she wanted to discreetly pinch her nails into Mei Shu’s flesh, causing her to suffer in silence.
If it were Mei Shu from her past life, she might have actually tolerated it.
Unfortunately, in this life, she wouldn’t tolerate it anymore.
As Mei Shu felt a slight pain on her arm, she exclaimed and pushed away Mei Mu’s hand while simultaneously squeezing her hand tightly in retaliation.
Mei Mu cried out in pain.
Both of them cried out strangely, immediately attracting the attention of those around them.
“Why did you pinch my hand so hard?” Mei Mu took the initiative to criticize. Her eyes turned red pitifully as she raised her reddened fingers accusingly.
Mei Shu gasped and looked at her impatiently with a frown. “I just want to ask you, why did you pinch me just now?”
She raised her bleeding arm and looked at Mei Mu’s nails. Her meaning was self-evident.
“What are the two of them doing? Fighting each other?”
“I don’t know, but I never expected that the new student Mei Shu is actually the real sister of the Campus Belle. If it weren’t for the big fuss yesterday, we would still be in the dark! By the way, the Campus Belle seems younger than Mei Shu. So, who is the illegitimate child?”
“Do we even need to think about it? The Campus Belle is so beautiful and gentle, how could she be the daughter of a home-wrecker? I think that Mei Shu is the illegitimate child!”
“Yeah, and wasn’t Mei Shu raised in the countryside? How could she be the legitimate daughter of the Mei family? If she were the legitimate daughter, who would dare to send her to the countryside?”
The surrounding voices buzzed with discussion, but most people sided with Mei Mu. After all, she had always maintained a perfect facade at school, and her position couldn’t be easily shaken.
She was feeling triumphant when suddenly a different opinion arose, causing everyone’s attention to shift.
“Don’t you think Mei Shu is much prettier than Mei Mu?”
Once this statement was made, people around immediately looked at Mei Shu’s appearance with surprise in their eyes.
Mei Mu was widely recognized as beautiful in school, but standing next to Mei Shu, she seemed somewhat dim.
The impression Mei Mu had left on them was deeply ingrained, to the point that they hadn’t observed other girls’ appearances for so long. Now, upon closer inspection, Mei Shu was undeniably stunning.
She lacked Mei Mu’s softness but exuded a touch of noble and independent spirit. Her presence was extraordinary, and she carried the air of a young lady from a distinguished family. Her facial features were elegant, and even in the entire entertainment industry, there were few female celebrities who could compare to her.
Moreover, she was just a high school student, and her features hadn’t fully matured yet, leaving people curious about what a remarkable beauty she would become in the future.
Seeing that others were staring at Mei Shu, their eyes widening in astonishment, Mei Mu stomped her foot in anger, intentionally attracting their attention by pretending to be in pain. “Ouch, Mei Shu, why did you squeeze my hand so hard!”
After speaking, she began shedding tears drop by drop, presenting a pitiful appearance that would make anyone feel sorry for her.
She was skilled at playing with men’s emotions, always feigning wealmess to great effect. But today, despite her wailing for a long time, no one stepped forward to comfort her.
Mei Shu simply stood coldly on the side, silently observing her performance, with a faint smile playing at the corners of her mouth, as if watching a fool.
In comparison, Mei Shu exuded a unique sense of elegance and independence.
“I didn’t notice before, but why is Mei Mu so affected? I can see that there’s an injury on Mei Shu’s arm, but Mei Mu’s hand is perfectly fine. Why is she crying?”
“You’re right! I didn’t notice before, but now that the two of them are standing together, I realize that Mei Mu is so petty. I’m starting to suspect that Mei Shu is the real heiress of the Mei family! After all, only the daughter of a mistress would be so affected! Don’t ask me how I know!”
People nodded in agreement, still not having figured out the truth, and no one dared to come forward to defend Mei Mu.
Mei Mu’s face turned green with anger. With a cold snort, she glared at Mei Shu and was about to leave.
At that moment, a luxury car stopped at the school gate.
Mei Mu’s foot, which had just stepped forward, froze. She quietly withdrew her foot and leaned her head against the side, looking pitiful.
The car door opened with a soft sound, and a pair of long legs stepped out first. Then, Lu Yan’s face, icy as ever, suddenly appeared in the public’s view.
“Mei Shu,” Lu Yan called her name, expressionless, as he walked toward her..
