Lin Muci still wanted to say something.
Her phone rang. She picked it up, and a girl's sobbing came from the other end!
"Lin Muci, what are you going to do to me?"
"Wuwuwu…"
Crying and shouting, the noises were incessant, followed by a vicious voice!
"You little b*tch, I'll ruin you, so you can stop gossiping all day!"
Then the call abruptly ended. However, a subtle, peculiar smile flickered across Lin Muci's lips.
It was Lin Miaoyu.
It seemed she wasn't behaving very well. Was this her and her mistress mother's ploy to deal with me?
Framing me, hmm, such a move, it's truly…
So foolish it makes one want to laugh.
The system was stunned.
"Host, you mean, this is Lin Miaoyu's strategy against you?"
Lin Muci nodded.
"Yes. I knew she wouldn't just wait to be slaughtered; she'd definitely make a move."
"It's just that her move is so foolish, I hadn't anticipated it."
"She called me to frame me, to say I hired someone to ruin her reputation, and that I wouldn't let her, her half-sister, go."
"Just you wait. Tomorrow, there might even be pictures and evidence, and all the media will report that I'm a bully at school who picks on her."
Lin Muci stretched lazily.
"You know, how can someone be so green-tea, innocent, and yet so stupid?"
The system was still flustered.
"But it's effective! This will cause a huge scandal again. Host, you'll be collectively boycotted by the program's audience!"
Lin Muci sighed.
"When you're out in the martial world, you're bound to get cut. This is also the price of wanting fame. If I can't even handle this much anti-fan sentiment, how can I become the world's number one star?"
Lin Muci sat in her luxurious supercar. She said,
"Lin Miaoyu is quite an interesting young girl. Honestly, I sympathize with her."
"Her mother doesn't walk the righteous path, and it's led this young girl to have a mind full of crooked ideas, narrowing her path."
"To win Lu Yuanhang's favor, I think she's forced herself into being a tool, striving for first place in academics, and maintaining a perfect facade in social situations."
"But it must be exhausting. She clearly wants a luxurious life, but she can only force herself to act like an innocent white lotus, and she doesn't even get much of the big money. She brainwashes herself daily, telling herself her father and mother are true love, brainwashing herself until she truly believes it."
The system listened to the host's critique. Thinking about it that way, it did feel quite sympathetic towards Lin Miaoyu.
Lin Muci stretched lazily.
"However, it's her bad luck. Who told her to cause trouble for the original host?"
She raised her eyes with a smile.
"The purpose of a tool is to make me soar."
Lin Muci went home and slept soundly. The next morning, Lin Cuiping barged into her room and said,
"Xiao Ci, you…"
Lin Muci looked at Lin Cuiping, who was flustered and at a loss.
"I guessed that the bad reviews had arrived."
Actually, Lin Muci was a little worried that Lin Cuiping would scold her.
To her surprise, Lin Cuiping directly grabbed Lin Muci's wrist and said with a sob,
"Xiao Ci, your daddy called me to complain, saying you hired people to deal with Lin Miaoyu?"
"Why didn't you tell Mommy? Mommy would have found people for you. If Xiao Ci handles it herself, it dirty's Xiao Ci's hands!"
Lin Cuiping's reaction was quite unexpected for Lin Muci.
She was stunned for a moment, then smiled. Lin Muci said with a smile,
"She just likes to act innocent and put on a show."
"If I were to deal with her, it would cost millions to find someone on the black market to stuff her into a sack and throw her into the sea. Hmm, Mommy, don't look at me like that, I'm just kidding. It's a society ruled by law now, how could such terrible things happen?"
She stretched lazily, sunlight falling on her cheeks, and Lin Muci said with a smile,
"Mommy, don't rush."
"I'm just waiting for her to reveal her true colors."
Since she didn't have to go to the TV station today, Lin Muci took her schoolbag to school.
She happened to catch the announcement of the second monthly exam results. Her name was at the very top, first place again.
She took a glance, and Lin Miaoyu's name had already begun to fall, dropping to outside the top fifty.
It seemed that Lin Miaoyu must have had a difficult time recently, otherwise her name wouldn't have dropped so much.
Her terrible state had affected her academic performance.
Lin Miaoyu stood by the monthly exam results, her eyes red.
Her friends gathered around her, comforting her softly. Lin Miaoyu's eyes were bloodshot as she looked at the exam results in a daze.
"Why would my sister do this to me?"
"She's already become a star, she's already on a different path. Why does she still want to harm me like this?"
"Making me unable to focus on my studies…"
"Will she be satisfied if I don't get into college?"
"I won't fight for the family fortune with my sister…"
She cried so much that the boys watching felt their hearts break. Lin Muci, from afar, said,
"You were never qualified to fight for the family fortune anyway."
She said this and was about to float away, while Lin Miaoyu watched her retreating back, sobbing.
"Lin Muci, I can tolerate anything else, but why did you hire someone to do that to me? If Daddy hadn't picked me up from school, I would have been ruined, do you know that?"
She cried, her tears streaming down her face like pear blossoms.
On the other side, Lu Yuanhang walked over, also filled with deep anger.
Looking at Lin Muci, he immediately accused her,
"Exactly, Xiao Ci, you've gone too far. What did your sister do to provoke you that you had to hire thugs to harass her?"
"No wonder you wouldn't let her ride with Uncle Li, no wonder you made her go to and from school alone. You planned it all along, didn't you?"
"How could I, Lu Yuanhang, have such a scheming daughter like you?"
"Always hanging out with unsavory people, learning all sorts of underhanded tricks in the entertainment industry, and then turning them on your own sister…"
"Are you even human?"
His tone was harsh.
The onlookers remained silent, afraid to speak. Not a single person tried to mediate.
Everyone looked at Lin Muci, the girl with a delicate and beautiful face, her black hair blown by the wind.
She looked up, her eyes bright and radiant, showing no pain from being accused by her own father.
Lin Muci looked at the middle-aged man seething with rage and said,
"Firstly, I didn't do this. Although I know you won't believe me, I still have to explain. I can't admit to something I didn't do."
"And then…"
Lin Muci looked at him.
Her lips were as cold as ice.
"My mommy was still breastfeeding when you got into bed with Zhao Jingjing. You let Zhao Jingjing work as a nanny in our house, taking money from the Lin family, and sent Lin Miaoyu and Lin Yangbin to the best schools. Who is the one who isn't human?"
"You, who committed such unspeakable deeds yourself, can still stand here and accuse me. So shameless, compared to being scheming, who is more scheming than you?"
The entire place fell silent!
Someone gasped, and Lu Yuanhang trembled with anger!
The middle-aged man looked up, about to slap Lin Muci hard, but his hand was caught. A tall young man stood out with a simple, honest demeanor.
"Uncle, please speak calmly, don't hit people."
The nearly six-foot-three basketball team player winked at Lin Muci.
"Even if Xiao Ci said something wrong, you can still…"
"Endure it a little."
"There's no reason why Uncle can scold people but Xiao Ci can't retort."
"It's just… too much."
Zhou Yuan'an added with genuine sincerity.
"Besides, Xiao Ci wouldn't find other school bullies to beat up Lin Miaoyu."
"She hasn't even come to me, and when it comes to fighting, I'm more professional! I'm willing to be Xiao Ci's thug for free, I guarantee I'll beat the other party so badly they'll need plastic surgery. She hasn't even asked me, so how could she ask someone else to beat up Lin Miaoyu? This must be a false accusation!"
From the crowd, someone let out a snort and laughed.
Zhou Yuan'an's explanation was too perfect!
It was the kind of perfect that left people speechless!
