Chapter 57: Defected to the Enemy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
i Mu’s actions imdiately earned unanimous praise from her classmates but disgusted Li Hua to the core.
She was the true victim here, yet she was subjected to baseless mockery, and i Mu took the opportunity to step on her and solidify her own position.
Since i Mu had acted unjustly first, Li Hua had no reason to be polite!
After school, Li Hua refused i Mu’s offer to walk ho together. Once i Mu left, Li Hua quietly approached i Shu and lowered her voice, “Co with . I have sothing to show you.”
i Shu looked at her in surprise, nodded slightly, and tidied up her things. Then they both went to the rooftop.
The evening breeze lightly brushed their faces, bringing a slight coolness, but it didn’t make them feel cold.
But Li Hua felt a chilling sensation in her heart.
She looked at i Shu and suddenly thought of her own foolishness in blindly following i Mu before.
Back then, in i Shu’s eyes, she was probably a fool, right?
Why did you call here? i Shu stood at a distance, showing a clear sense of detachnt. She didn’t intend to get too close to Li Hua.
Li Hua noticed her aloofness, smiled self-mockingly, and took out her phone from her pocket, passing it to i Shu. “Listen to this recording. I believe it will be helpful to you.”
i Shu raised an eyebrow slightly, took the phone, and pressed the play button. i Mu’s sharp voice suddenly ca from it.
“Because i Shu still holds shares of the i family company…”
“Once she obediently hands over the shares, i Shu will be completely within our control!”
Li Hua silently stood by, observing i Shu’s expression.
She thought i Shu would at least be shocked or surprised.
If she put herself in i Shu’s shoes, she would have felt grateful and done everything possible to integrate back into the family after being sent to the countryside and ignored since her mother’s death.
So when she heard this recording, learning about i Mu and her mother’s true intentions, she should have felt disheartened.
But i Mu didn’t seem surprised at all. There was not even a trace of emotion on her face.
Li Hua felt perplexed and couldn’t help but ask directly, “Aren’t you upset? They’re plotting against you, and you don’t mind?”
“Why should I care about unrelated people? Besides, their intentions are not sothing I just found out. But what do you an by letting listen to this recording?”
i Shu handed the phone back to her and leaned against the wall, waiting for her answer calmly.
Li Hua hadn’t expected her to be truly indifferent. She opened her mouth to say sothing, but in front of i Shu’s calm deanor, the carefully prepared words suddenly beca unspeakable.
i Shu glanced at her phone, frowned, and urged coldly, “Say what you want to say. I still have ten minutes to waste with you, then I need to study.” [Ding! Please complete the task of recruiting a follower to earn 10 points.] Hmph!
Is this system doing this on purpose?
i Shu clicked her tongue impatiently and suppressed the anger in her heart. “Fine, I’ll give you more ti. Explain everything you want to say and your intentions behind all this.”
Li Hua inexplicably swallowed nervously, unsure why, she suddenly felt that i Shu had a strong aura, completely unlike a country bumpkin who had just arrived in the city. She even had the vibe of a powerful woman.
However, in an instant, Li Hua dismissed this feeling as an illusion!
After all, this was just a school, a place where academic performance mattered.
No matter how smart i Shu was, it was impossible for her to quickly improve her grades within three months and surpass i Mu.
From this perspective, i Shu was far behind i Mu.
But the enemy of an enemy is a friend.
Li Hua knew this very well.
Moreover, with i Mu standing in front of her, she didn’t resent i Shu at all now.
“I understand that there is still resentnt between us. In the past, in order to please i Mu, I provoked and targeted you several tis. But this ti, you made a scapegoat, and I have already paid a painful price. So, can we temporarily put aside our grievances for now?”
Li Hua completed her words with great courage.
She looked up at the girl opposite her, but i Shu just silently stared at her, not indicating any intention to speak. Li Hua took another breath and continued, “You heard the recording just now. I know you probably want to deal with i Mu, but you haven’t established a solid footing in the i family and school yet. It won’t be easy to go against i Mu. So, why not join forces?” “You want to deal with i Mu? Are you giving up on the opportunity to soar high by relying on her as a powerful connection?” i Shu curved her lips slightly, tauntingly.
Li Hua could certainly understand her disdain, but now Li Hua had no ti to consider all of that.
“Yes! She used first, and now she wants to squeeze out the last bit of value from to wash away her and her mother’s tarnished reputation. I don’t want her to continue manipulating !”
As Li Hua spoke, a glint of resentful red flashed in her eyes, and her lips were stained with blood from biting too hard. It seed that i Mu had truly pushed her to her limit this ti.
i Shu smiled knowingly, “But how can I trust that you’re not pretending to seek refuge with ? What if this is a plan you and i Mu have sched together?”
