Major media outlets believed it to be true.

They organized the relevant evidence and each posted a dynamic containing sensitive keywords like campus bullying and theft, instantly spreading Mei Shu’s wrongdoings across the entire internet. Those who had previously spoken in support of Mei Shu now turned against her, vehemently insulting her.

Because there was evidence from official media, they genuinely believed Mei Mu’s words.

These dynamics received countless likes and shares, and the situation escalated rapidly. Eventually, the news reached the ears of teachers and students at No.1 High School.

However, Mei Mu didn’t know that the entire senior class at the First High School were all fans of Mei Shu. When they saw people online defaming their goddess, they couldn’t bear it any longer and rushed to her defense.

“My goddess is not the person you described! The one who stole the money is Mei Mu!”

“That’s right, the Mei family compensated because of Mei Mu! Moreover, Mei Shu never bullied anyone at school; it’s Mei Mu who always bullies people. Mei Mu is just an illegitimate daughter, and it’s definitely her who did these things!”

These students fought fiercely online to support Mei Shu.

However, they were clearly no match for the people on the internet who were insulting Mei Shu.

The number of people wanting to slander Mei Shu was overwhelming. By speaking up for her, the students inadvertently got labeled as “accomplices” by the public.

“It’s because of the simps from your school that Mei Shu behaves lawlessly! Is a person like her worthy of being the piano competition champion? She should hand over her certificate and leave the piano circle!”

“Wow, the lapdogs from Mei Shu’s family have come. If we get bitten by them, do we need to get rabies shots?”

The online comments became increasingly offensive.

The students were infuriated and quickly gathered to collect evidence to clear Mei Shu’s name.

Meanwhile.

Mei Shu was tutoring her two younger brothers with their homework.

She also took the time to review some additional questions. The college entrance examination was approaching, and she couldn’t afford to waste any time. She had to work hard and stay focused.

Her phone, which was placed on the table, vibrated several times, pulling Mei Shu’s attention away from her books.

She was surprised when she opened her phone.

Who would message her so late?

However, when she checked, she was startled to see dozens of people requesting to add her contact information. Even more strangely, these people were all eager to help her, and their verification messages were almost identical.

“Don’t worry, Goddess, I’ll help you curse them right away!”

“Goddess, don’t be afraid. Those people are just jealous of how excellent you are. 1’11 throw evidence in their faces!”

Mei Shu was puzzled. She was about to put down her phone when her brother, Mei Yan, suddenly exclaimed, “Sister! You’re trending!”

Mei Jing immediately put down his pen and came over.

Mei Shu frowned and looked at him with displeasure, “Who allowed you to slack off?”

Mei Yan shrank his neck in fear and quickly handed her the phone, “Sister, I wasn’t lazy. You really are trending, and people are cursing you!”

Mei Shu found it strange and focused her attention. She then discovered that the internet was flooded with rumors about her.

“They say I bullied classmates and stole money from the teacher? This doesn’t make any sense!” Mei Shu pointed at her phone in disbelief. “Isn’t all of this what Mei Mu did?”

“Sister, don’t you understand? Someone is trying to harm you! They want to frame you by guiding public opinion against you! Many people are even asking No.1 High School to expel you!” Mei Yan’s little face was tense. He seemed to be trying to make Mei Shu realize the severity of the situation.

“OK.” Mei Shu didn’t seem to care even after hearing his words. She continued to work on her exercises with an indifferent expression. “The school knows the truth and won’t expel me. Don’t worry.”

“But your reputation is ruined!” Mei Yan watched her calmly continue working on the problems, feeling anxious for her. “No, I have to clear things up for you!”

“Why is a little kid like you getting involved in such matters?” Mei Shu mercilessly took his phone away, “Hurry up and do your homework. Do you want to sleep tonight?”

“But…” Mei Yan’s tone was visibly unwilling as he confronted her with a pouting expression. In the end, of course, he surrendered, obediently laying back down at the table to do his homework.

“That’s a good boy.” Mei Shu smiled warmly as she set the phone aside.

Mei Jing frowned disapprovingly, “Sister, things have developed to this point. If you don’t show up, people might think you’ve been defeated and won’t dare to come out.”

“I know.” Mei Shu was well aware of the consequences. In her past life, she had experienced the cold eyes and rejection of everyone around her.

That’s why this time she wasn’t in a hurry to respond.

“Rest assured. I’ll wait until they become complacent, thinking they’ve found the truth, and then 1’11 strike. That way, I’ll get twice the result with half the effort.” Mei Shu smirked, a glint of cunning in her eyes, which startled Mei Jing.

He let out a soft sigh, “Do as you please.” After all, if she couldn’t resolve it in the end, he would do his best to clean up the mess for her.

Mei Shu accepted the friend requests from those people and sent them a message expressing her gratitude..
