"This isn't mine..."
Bai Yuning's fingers were being stepped on by Lin Zhi, causing her excruciating pain, but she still clenched her teeth and refused to let go.
She wouldn't budge.
Lin Zhi wouldn't let go.
Lin Zhi was wearing pointed high heels, which could poke Bai Yuning's hand until it turned red, but Bai Yuning didn't pull her hand back.
The recording Mu Yiran played continued to play until she called Ai Ni, at which point it was cut off.
The time when Ai Ni left the stage, as seen in the call logs and surveillance video, was almost simultaneous.
Looking at the disheveled Bai Yuning, Mu Yiran's initial sympathy turned into anger and indifference.
Lin Zhiting said that Shi Youxi was lying when he went to see Bai Yuning at this time.
Lin Zhiting tried to grab the phone, but Wu Li quickly stopped him from doing something so stupid.
But he didn't expect that Lin Zhiting's stupidity was ingrained in his very bones.
He tried with all his might but couldn't pry Lin Zhi's foot off, and pointed at her, cursing:
"You were in cahoots with them too! You conspired to frame our Third Young Master. How much did the Shi family pay you for that!"
"What a little bitch!"
Wu Li roared, "Lin Zhiting, shut up!"
Lin Zhi was completely stunned by the scolding.
Her entire family, spanning three generations, has probably never been insulted like that.
"Aini!"
Mu Yiran walked over and stood in front of Lin Zhi to protect her. Ai Ni immediately grabbed Lin Zhiting by the back of his collar and threw him towards the door like a trash bag.
Ai Ni went out and closed the door behind her.
Liu Yi was bewildered by the chaotic situation. Only then did he realize that the person stepping on Bai Yuning's hand was actually the young lady from the Lin family.
Lin Zhi was taking out her phone to call someone and complain.
"I've been insulted! I've been insulted! Come to school right now!"
Mu Yiran wondered who she was complaining to, "Are you looking for your mother?"
Lin Zhi: "Of course not! She left me to play mahjong."
Mu Yiran said apologetically, "It's okay, I'll help you get revenge later. I'll have that woman hold him down and beat him up for you."
Lin Zhi: "Really?! Won't he hold a grudge against you?"
Mu Yiran was fearless: "Too many people hold a grudge against me; they'll have to wait in line."
Lin Zhi was excited and took the opportunity to get Cheng Ran's WeChat. She was completely unaware of the cold gaze directed at her from the side.
Liu Yi remembered that the Lin family was famous for spoiling this young lady, especially Lin Zhi's older brother. He glanced at Cheng Ran, who seemed to enjoy making things worse and had a tendency to help the wicked, and silently lit a candle for Lin Zhiting in his heart.
Liu Yi went up and took the phone from under Lin Zhi's feet. "Your phone? Unlock it."
"It's not mine! It was... Mo Yifan gave it to me!"
"Senior! Senior! It was Mo Yifan who threatened me! He forced me to frame you!" Bai Yuning shouted hysterically.
"Student Bai!"
"Do you know what you're saying! Do you think you can afford to offend the Shi family, but you can afford to offend the Mo Sheng family?" Wu Li said sternly.
"Forcing you?"
Shi Youxi, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
"You two seem to be cooperating quite well, don't you?"
"What...what collaboration? Senior, I don't know what you're talking about—"
Bai Yuning forced a smile.
Suddenly, a conversation came from Lin Zhi's phone.
"So, are you in or not?"
"If you have a relationship with Shi Youxi, then your status as Shi Youxi's girlfriend will be confirmed."
"Okay, after you've drugged him, bring Shi Youxi here."
"..."
"Damn it!"
Lin Zhi stared wide-eyed at Bai Yuning, whose face had turned deathly pale.
"So it was you who wanted to drug the president! You have the nerve to turn the tables on me! Bai Yuning, how shameless of you!"
"How could... how could there be surveillance footage..." Bai Yuning murmured blankly, her knees buckling as she collapsed to the ground.
"What is this!" Liu Yi squeezed through the crowd to take a look.
When Alyssa Chia, who originally intended to help Bai Yuning, saw the video on the school's online forum, her eyes were filled with disbelief.
An anonymous account on the campus forum posted two videos. One video showed Bai Yuning and Mo Yifan having a conversation in the dressing room for a few dozen seconds. The other video showed Mo Yifan standing in a corner backstage, taking something out of Bai Yuning's coat pocket and putting it into a champagne glass next to her.
These two videos practically caused a sensation on the entire Tieba forum.
The anonymous account that sent the message is now marked as deleted.
However, the video was saved and reposted by many students.
The moment Wu Li saw the video, he had a gut feeling that he was doomed. Sure enough, the next second, the third wife of the Mo family called.
Wu Li closed his eyes briefly. He glanced at Shi Youxi, who was smiling and turning his phone around. The boy looked up at him, and Wu Li quickly looked away.
He rushed out and forced the doctor to go in and give Mo Yifan a sedative. He then quickly left the concert hall with the unconscious Mo Yifan and the bruised and swollen Lin Zhiting.
Mu Yiran and Lin Zhi watched the video again.
Just before the video stopped recording, as Mo Yifan was drugging Mo Yifan, Mu Yiran noticed that Mo Yifan seemed to have been called and turned around.
Was he checking to see if anyone was there, or was someone calling him?
"With this, this matter has nothing to do with me anymore."
Liu Yi saved the video, glanced at the distraught Bai Yuning with a complicated expression, looked at Shi Youxi's indifferent face, and nodded.
"I will contact you if there are any further developments." Liu Yi couldn't figure out who the real victim was.
They wanted to ask Shi Youxi if he wanted to reconcile or settle things with the Mo family, but Shi Youxi was fine, while the two people who planned this suffered heavy losses.
Mo Yifan, who claims to be the victim, has already run away. With no one involved, Liu Yi couldn't stop Shi Youxi either.
The timing of this video's appearance was so coincidental that Liu Yi could easily figure out who made it.
Since that person just released the video, they must have been certain that no one would be able to find out.
Because the video spread so quickly, it soon became a trending topic on Weibo, which was no longer something Liu Yi could control.
He left with his men.
There were only four people left in the dressing room.
Alyssa Chia has passed away.
It's estimated that starting tomorrow, no one at school will pay any attention to Bai Yuning.
Lin Zhi received a phone call saying that someone was coming to pick her up.
She was reluctant to leave, looking at Mu Yiran expectantly, still hoping that Mu Yiran would take her to give Lin Zhiting a good beating.
After much persuasion, Mu Yiran agreed to pack up Lin Zhiting and send him to Lin Zhi's house, where he could do whatever he wanted with him.
Lin Zhi pouted, wanting to say something, but this time the cold air behind her attacked like an icicle. Lin Zhi turned around for no reason and met her president's dark eyes.
"..."
Lin Zhi obediently left.
Mu Yiran had nothing to say to Bai Yuning. Since she wanted to use Shi Youxi, she should be prepared to bear the consequences if her plan was exposed.
Shi Youxi was pulling Mu Yiran outside when someone grabbed her trouser leg.
He turned around indifferently.
"Senior..."
Bai Yuning still held a sliver of hope, "I'm sorry, I was bewitched. I shouldn't have listened to Mo Yifan."
"I just wanted to... just wanted to get closer to you, really!" Tears welled up in her eyes as she played her trump card, knowing that Shi Youxi would definitely not refuse her.
"It was Auntie, it was Auntie who told us to get closer to each other, and Auntie told you, cousin, to take good care of me!"
"You can't do this to me! Your aunt won't allow you to do this!"
"Please forgive me this once, cousin."
cousin? !
Mu Yiran stared in astonishment at the back of Shi Youxi's head.
So Bai Yuning is related to Bai Shengsheng?!
So Shi Youxi did it for this reason.
Shi Youxi lowered her eyes, her words icy: "You should be glad that I'm doing this for your mother's sake."
Bai Yuning's pupils dilated as she watched the handsome young man approach her for the first time.
"You shouldn't have upset her."
Bai Yuning was stunned.
she?
Shi Youxi kicked her hand away without any mercy and took Mu Yiran out.
The concert hall has been cleared out, and only school leaders and teachers are handling the aftermath. But no matter how they try to salvage the situation, it's too late. This is the first time Jingyi's reputation has suffered such a blow.
The internet is full of malicious criticisms of the school's ethos and student management methods.
Mo Yifan is still the third young master of Mo Sheng.
Mo Sheng's rivals hired a lot of online trolls to attack everything from the Mo family's upbringing and character to Mo Sheng's management style of artists.
Pulling up a radish brings up mud, and eventually even unearthed the incident involving former artist Chen Shuyp's fans.
As Mu Yiran passed through the gate, she overheard the school leaders discussing how to handle the situation: Mo Yifan and Bai Yuning could no longer stay at Jingyi.
Mu Yiran never expected that the situation would eventually turn into a gossip event in the entertainment industry, with someone even compiling a PPT online that detailed Chen Shu's sexual misconduct and his physical assault on fans.
It's estimated that even Chen Shu was still eating gossip about his former employer when the next second, this gossip hit him squarely on the head.
Mu Yiran watched with admiration, biting her fingers as she looked on.
She knew it! Chen Shu wouldn't be famous for long!
This matter even implicated the Cheng family.
Li Bu Huo called her to discuss canceling the cooperation related to Chen Shu.
While Shi Youxi, who was waiting obediently beside her, was packing up his cello, his gaze suddenly fixed on a certain spot.
"Sister, I'm going to the restroom."
"Mmm..."
Shi Youxi strode over, turned the corner, and saw the silver-haired man standing there making a phone call.
"Mr. Shi, Mo Sheng's stock market has already dropped by 10%. How did you do that? It's truly amazing."
"It's nothing, just a little trick. It's a pleasure working with you, Musk."
Shi Bianji looked at the boy who appeared behind him in the mirror and hung up the phone impatiently.
The intense gaze traveled from the boy's hair to his Adam's apple, finally settling on the shimmering lotus brooch on his chest.
"Xiao Xi, you finally came to find me on your own initiative."
