Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Having suffered such a grievance, Mei Mu naturally wouldn’t let Mei Shu off easily.

Before the end of the school day, the head teacher announced some good news: in order to relieve the pressure on the senior students, the school had arranged a spring outing for the whole grade on Friday afternoon. The charge would be collected and kept by the class monitor, Chen Hao.

This outing was an organized activity for the entire grade, and unless there were special circumstances, no one was allowed to take leave.

Although Mei Shu didn’t want to waste an afternoon playing, she hadn’t forgotten the bullying she experienced during the spring outing in her previous life. If she could take revenge all at once this time, it wouldn’t be bad at all.

This should be the last collective activity for the graduating class.

Both teachers and students were delighted, and almost no one asked for leave. Everyone signed up to participate, and the cost wasn’t much, only three hundred yuan per person. So, the class monitors collected the money and submitted the list to the grade director.

It was expected that the matter would end like this, and everyone just needed to wait for Friday afternoon to come.

However, no one could have anticipated a small incident the next day that would shock the entire grade.

Early in the morning, the head teacher received urgent calls from both the park and the bus company, urging for payment. He went back to his office to get the activity fees that had been collected the day before, only to find that the drawer, where the money was kept, had been pried open, and all the money inside was gone.

The head teacher immediately reported the situation to the principal and requested to review the surveillance footage.

Once this matter was reported, the school took it seriously. This caused a commotion in the entire grade.

“I heard that if the school can’t catch the thief, they are planning to call the police!”

“Oh no! That won’t be good for the school’s reputation. I’m about to take the college entrance exam, and I don’t want others to know that my alma mater had a theft incident!”

“I hope the thief will confess on their own and not implicate others! Besides, if the activity funds were stolen, does that mean the spring outing will be canceled?”

“Exactly! They should quickly review the surveillance and find out the truth privately!”

“Cough, cough!” On the podium, the teacher interrupted the students’ discussion, “I know you all care about whether the spring outing will proceed as scheduled. Don’t worry. The school has decided to thoroughly investigate. However, before we clarify the truth, I don’t want anyone to be distracted from their studies because of this. Also, if any of you saw any suspicious person near the head teacher’s office last night, you can come to me. I will report it truthfully.”

Although the teacher’s words had some soothing effect, most of the students were still distracted. They couldn’t focus on their studies for most of the class.

After the bell rang, the students gathered in small groups and started discussing.

Mei Mu seemed particularly restless.

Her female friends gathered around and asked about her well-being.

Mei Mu shook her head gently, “I just suddenly remembered something. I’ll go out for a moment and be back soon.”

After speaking, she left the classroom in a hurry.

“Isn’t she going to the teacher’s office?”

“Huh? Could it be that Mei Mu has found a suspicious person and is going to report it to the teacher?”

This remark instantly caught the attention of the people around them.

However, they could only speculate, as they had no way to prove whether Mei Mu had left the classroom for this reason or not. They just gathered around, discussing for a while before dispersing.

After the class bell rang, Mei Mu followed the teacher with a worried look on her face as she entered the classroom.

The homeroom teacher stood at the door with a stern expression, looking somewhat intimidating. “Mei Shu, come out for a moment.”

In an instant, the eyes of the entire class were on her.

Mei Shu frowned slightly and glanced at Mei Mu, who seemed hesitant to speak. She understood what was probably happening.

Who had the audacity to break into the head teacher’s office, pry open the lock, and steal the money? So, it turned out Mei Mu was waiting for her here.

With this thought in mind, Mei Shu followed the teacher without any expression, walking out of the classroom. As expected, she was taken straight to the principal’s office.

At this moment, the rest of the students in the classroom also approached Mei Mu with curiosity, “Goddess! Did you find a suspicious person and go to report it to the teacher?”

“No, don’t make things up. My sister wasn’t called out because of this!” Mei Mu seemed to be trying to cover up for Mei Shu.

However, the more she did that, the more others were convinced that the matter might be related to Mei Shu.

Wen Miao couldn’t stand her attempt to shift the blame onto Mei Shu while pretending to look pitiful, so she couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “Some people’s drama is just too fake. If you act like this, you will still be a vase even if you enter the entertainment industry!”

“Wen Miao, you’re going too far! Goddess has already apologized to you for what happened yesterday. What more do you want?”

As soon as Mei Mu was criticized, someone immediately stepped forward to speak up for her.

Wen Miao sneered, unrelenting in her criticism. “What? I have to forgive her just because she apologized? Tomorrow, I’ll murder your whole family and then apologize to you.. Does that mean I won’t have to go to jail?”
