Chapter 140: Spreading Rumors
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Although it was impolite, Mei Shu did it to prevent herself from falling too miserably. She thought she could apologize to him later if necessary.
However, she didn’t expect that before she could grab Lu Si’s arm, a pair of strong arms had already reached out and lifted her up. The man used a slight force to carry her in his arms.
Even through the fabric of their clothes, she could feel his scorching body temperature.
Their eyes met, and there seemed to be a hidden undercurrent flowing between them.
This man was really handsome…
His straight and tall nose was so close to her that it seemed like she could touch it by just leaning a bit closer. His curly eyelashes even appeared somewhat cute, completely different from his usual cold appearance. His dark eyes reflected her figure.
They gazed at each other for ten seconds before Mei Shu seemed startled and quickly pushed away from him, standing about half a meter away, “Thank you.” “No need to be polite.” Lu Si curled his lips in a good mood.
Lu Yan quickly came over to show concern, “Are you okay? Did you hit anything?”
“I held her in time, so she probably didn’t hit anything.” Lu Si replied calmly.
Only then did Lu Yan realize and reluctantly stepped aside.
Lu Si looked at Mei Shu and said, “Let’s go.”
Mei Shu nodded and took the initiative to go to the front desk to settle the bill, but she was surprised to be informed that the bill for this table had already been paid.
She looked at Lu Yan in disbelief.
The latter lied calmly, “Maybe it was Jiang He who paid. 1 don’t know.”
Mei Shu felt embarrassed, “We agreed that I would treat you today.”
Why was it that not only did she eat the most, but she didn’t spend a penny?
“Then next time.” Lu Si looked at her with a smile in his eyes, “Next time, you can treat me, alright?”
“Sure.”
Lu Si was a gentleman in his demeanor and considerate in his actions, and Mei Shu was happy to be friends with such a person.
Moreover, she had learned a secret from him that he didn’t want others to know.
It seemed that their relationship had become closer because of this meal.
After the meal, Lu Yan still had Jiang He send her back. He watched her safely enter her house before returning to the Lu family.
On the other side, in the hospital.
Mei Mu almost exploded when she saw the overwhelming news about Mei Shu on her phone!
She never expected that this little bitch would have such a stroke of luck. Not only did she get help from the Lu family, but she also managed to impress two respected masters to become her students.
Now, the internet was filled with pictures of Elder Wen and Elder Wu fighting over Mei Shu, and the comments below were curious about Mei Shu’s true skills.
Of course, there were also many people who doubted that the two masters were only doing this for the Lu family’s face. Otherwise, why would they, at their age, work so hard and take on a disciple?
These were just a bunch of sour words and meant to express jealousy over Mei Shu’s opportunity, but unexpectedly, it received approval from the majority of people online.
Among them were many students who had repeatedly failed their piano exams.
Piano was just too difficult for them, and they couldn’t believe that their peers were all so much more accomplished than they were!
Seeing these comments, Mei Mu found an outlet for her jealousy.
She opened the comments and immediately joined in without hesitation, “Yes, 1 am Mei Shu’s classmate. She is usually very close to a classmate surnamed Lu in our school, and their relationship seems to be very good. I guess that classmate helped her arrange everything this time.”
As soon as she published the comment, many people liked her comment. Of course, some people also cursed her, saying she was a malicious gossiper who only knew how to defame people better than her.
Mei Mu disliked such people the most. She didn’t even care to change her bandages and spent the whole day lying in bed arguing with them online. She tried her best to throw all the dirty water onto Mei Shu and crazily tarnished her image on the internet.
What was even more ridiculous was that many people believed her lies, and they collected screenshots of all her comments and posted them together as a collection of Mei Shu’s dark history.
“Mei Shu also bullies her classmates, and no one likes to talk to her in class.”
“Mei Shu used to live in the countryside for several years and flirted with many boys, which is why she seduced the young master of the Lu family as soon as she came back to the city.”
“Mei Shu once stole money at school and was caught by the teacher, so her parents were called.”
Mei Mu felt more and more pleased with herself and gradually forgot about the consequences of spreading rumors.
She just wanted Mei Shu to be despised by everyone; this was the fate Mei Shu deserved!
In the dim light, Mei Mu’s expression distorted almost to the point of madness.
Soon, many media people who were chasing after the smell contacted her proactively, hoping she could provide more evidence to completely drag the girl who had occupied the top spot on the hot search for the whole day down the mud.
Mei Mu was more than willing to cooperate.
She fabricated many chat records herself and even stole the receipt for the necklace from Wang Yue’s pocket, hoping to prove that Mei Shu had stolen money and was caught by the school, and in the end, she had to compensate.
She wanted everyone to know how much money the Mei family had lost due to Mei Shu’s fault!
