Chapter 69: Avenge the School Goddess

Wen Miao was startled and took a big step back, accidentally bumping her waist against the desk behind her, which made her groan in pain.
Mei Shu thought she might have accidentally touched an innocent classmate and quickly turned around to check, only to see Wen Miao grimacing in pain. “Hurt your waist?” Mei Shu frowned and went over to check.
Wen Miao quickly waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, I was just careless.”
“A girl’s waist injury is no joke. I should still accompany you to the medical room for a check-up.” Mei Shu was about to support her to leave but stopped when she noticed Wen Miao’s pale face. “Can’t walk?”
“It seems so.” Wen Miao gasped and even her voice trembled.
Her waist had hit the corner of the table just right, causing half of her body to go numb. Every step she took, it felt like a needle was stabbing her back, making it impossible for her to walk to the medical room. The pain was unbearable.
Mei Shu didn’t expect her injury to be so severe. Suddenly, she squatted down in front of Wen Miao, her back turned to her, and urged anxiously, “Quick, get on my back, I’ll carry you to the medical room for an examination.”
Wen Miao didn’t expect Mei Shu to be so considerate of her. While feeling surprised, she also felt a warm sensation. A blush tinted her pale face, and she said, “I’m fine. If I sit for a while, it’ll probably get better. Thank you, Mei Shu.” Seeing that she was insisting not going to the medical room, Mei Shu was still worried, but she didn’t force her. She helped Wen Miao back to her seat and instructed worriedly, “If you still feel pain later, be sure to let me know. This is no joke.”
“I understand. It seems like the pain has eased a bit now,” Mei Shu gratefully pulled a strong smile towards her.
Mei Shu made sure her condition had improved a bit before returning to her seat.
The boy Mei Shu threw to the ground had struggled to get up and was standing behind Mei Mu, glaring at her while gasping for breath.
Mei Shu acted as if she didn’t see him, activated the blocking mode once again, and started doing her test papers, treating everyone around her as if they were invisible.
Mei Mu stood awkwardly by her side, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
She felt like she had become a huge joke!
Just a moment ago, she had pretended to defend Mei Shu, but now Mei Shu and Wen Miao seemed to have a close relationship. What was she?
Mei Mu felt more and more aggrieved, and she approached Mei Shu, complaining with a pitiful tone, “Sister, you weren’t quarreling with Wen Miao? Then you should have told me earlier to avoid me worrying for no reason.”
“My dear sister.” Mei Shu lifted her eyelids and looked at her with an emotionless face. “You were in the classroom at noon, right? You knew someone was messing with my seat. You should have told me earlier, so that the student just now wouldn’t have suffered.”
Mei Mu’s face immediately turned red, and she wanted to explain herself, but she couldn’t say a word.
She was indeed in the classroom earlier, and she knew that those people wanted to make trouble for Mei Shu. So, she feigned sleep, pretending not to know anything.
But now, Mei Shu directly pointed it out as if she deliberately didn’t tell Mei Shu!
“How could you say that about me, Sister? If I had known, how could I not have told you? Can’t you accept me after all this time? You can never imagine the hardships and bullying I’ve endured during the more than ten years without a father!”
Mei Mu almost roared, and then, regardless of whether Mei Shu would respond, she wiped her tears and ran away, as if Mei Shu had caused her enormous grievance.
Mei Mu’s followers were all heartbroken and didn’t care about Mei Shu. They all surrounded Mei Mu and comforted her.
At this moment, the class bell rang, and Mei Shu wanted to go to the restroom, so she left the classroom. Unexpectedly, at the doorway, she saw Li Zhen waiting there.
Mei Shu frowned and stopped. “Move aside.”
Li Zhen refused to budge, blocking the doorway, and glanced into the classroom. “Oh, what happened here?”
The commotion at the door attracted the attention of the classmates.
One female classmate intentionally touched Mei Mu, who was still crying with her head down, and lowered her voice, saying, “Li Zhen must be here to support you! Go and complain to him!”
“What are you saying?” Mei Mu pretended to be shy and pushed away the girl’s hand, but she secretly glanced in Li Zhen’s direction, blushing.
The girl saw Mei Mu’s reluctance to speak up and spoke on her behalf, “Mei Shu was bullying Mei Mu in front of all of us. Li Zhen, aren’t you going to do something about it?”
Li Zhen instinctively looked at Mei Shu and saw that she still had an icy expression. He suddenly became interested in teasing her. “Oh, such a bad girl. She made our school goddess cry? I should avenge the school goddess.”
Mei Mu blushed at his words and stood up shyly, her voice hoarse as she said, “Li Zhen, don’t be like this. Sister didn’t mean it!”
“Tsk.” Li Zhen turned his eyes away and smacked his lips.
Mei Mu did have a way of eliciting a man’s protective instincts, but he felt that something was off about her..
