Huang Rui was confident that none of his brothers would betray him, so he dared to deny everything.

However, Captain Wang and his team had dealt with many stubborn criminals over the years, and getting a confession out of him was only a matter of time.

Mei Shu was not worried at all about letting the police handle this matter.

The crucial video had already been decrypted by her, and now they would follow the leads to catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

Since the last exam ended, the school had been trying to find a suitable time to hold a parent-teacher meeting for the senior class. The main purpose was to boost the morale of both parents and students in the final stage, to prevent them from getting too anxious and complacent.

After discussing with the principal, they decided to schedule the parent-teacher meeting for this Friday afternoon.

Wang Yue used the excuse of not feeling well to allow Mei Yun to attend the meeting on behalf of Mei Shu. In reality, her true intentions were quite evident.

Mei Shu saw through her intentions but also wanted to use this opportunity to escalate the situation. Even if Mei Yun wouldn’t believe her after learning about the scandal today at school, it didn’t matter.

The more Mei Yun was infuriated with her now, the more disgusted he would be with Wang Yue once he discovered the truth later.

To avoid raising suspicion, Mei Shu even showed some resistance when Wang Yue suggested that Mei Yun attend the parent-teacher meeting.

Wang Yue noticed this slight unease and interpreted it as guilt.

So, she put more effort into persuading Mei Yun.

“Honey, this is the first parent-teacher meeting since Shu entered the school. Since she’s about to start her senior year, she would definitely appreciate your presence. It would motivate her to keep working hard.”

Mei Yun glanced at Mei Shu, who was uncharacteristically silent with her head down, and nodded sincerely. “You’re right. Shu has just transferred to this school. My presence will show her that I care about her. 1 also want to see how well she gets along with her classmates and if anyone bullies my daughter.” “Exactly! Shu will surely be thrilled. Honey, 1 know your top priority is always Shu.” Wang Yue mentioned casually, “By the way, don’t forget to ask the teacher about Shu’s performance at school. If there’s anything she needs in her studies, we should fulfill her needs as soon as possible.”

“Yes, I will make sure to ask this time.” Mei Yun agreed with a reassuring smile directed at Mei Shu. “Shu, don’t be nervous. Dad knows you’re working hard, and even if your grades aren’t perfect right now, I won’t blame you.”

It was only then that Mei Shu realized she hadn’t told Mei Yun about her recent achievement, and Wang Yue had apparently forgotten about it due to the recent scandal. So, neither of them knew that she had ranked second in her grade.

Thinking about this, Mei Shu lowered her head even more and hesitantly twiddled her fingers. “I did make some mistakes this time, but 1 promise to keep working hard next time!”

Wang Yue couldn’t help but inwardly sneer.

Mei Shu clearly didn’t dare to tell Mei Yun the truth. When she said “some mistakes,” she probably meant that her grades were quite poor. Otherwise, with Mei Shu’s personality, how could she resist boasting in front of Mei Yun for her achievements?

Her daughter was the excellent one in the family, but she had now been imprisoned, her entire youth ruined!

Mei Yun comfortingly patted her on the head. “It’s alright, I believe in you. Although the college entrance exam is important, don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

“I understand,” Mei Shu obediently nodded.

Soon, it was Friday afternoon, and the senior students were rarely allowed to leave school early. However, none of them were happy about it.

They preferred to stay at school and study rather than have their parents summoned to a parent-teacher meeting.

While the school’s intentions were good, some parents tended to use such meetings to add even more pressure, as only the college entrance exam could set them free.

In the afternoon, Mei Shu did not go home like the other students. Instead, she found an empty classroom to continue studying.

As students passed by in the hallway and saw Mei Shu, they would whisper to their parents.

“Mom, that’s Mei Shu! She’s the one in the video!”

“Oh my goodness, why is a student like her still at this school?” The parents immediately averted their gaze, as if looking at her for one more second would dirty their eyes.

Many parents took this opportunity to complain to the teachers and demand Mei Shu’s expulsion to protect their own children from bad influence.

The teachers had to deal with the parents’ strong pressure.

Mei Yun had just finished the meeting and was hastily sent to the school by his driver. However, as soon as he arrived in the hallway, he heard his daughter’s name being mentioned by several people.

He felt puzzled and decided to listen carefully. To his astonishment, he realized that they were actually suggesting that his daughter should drop out of school!

Mei Yun immediately stepped forward to argue with them, defending his daughter. “On what basis do you say such things about my daughter? Even if her grades are not great, you can’t just ask her to drop out! It’s none of your business whether she goes to school or not!”

His outburst attracted the attention of everyone in the hallway, and they all looked at him with surprise..
