II. Unfounded Accusations

Bastard! Damn bastard! I cursed and kicked the bathroom wall hard

It was as if a lightning bolt struck my head, and in an instant, I understood. My goodness! This guy is deliberately framing me!

What? Am I supposed to just wait to be tormented by him? I refuse to do that!

He said triumphantly: "Did you not surrender? Why pretend to be aloof? Hahaha!"

Molly's detestable expression emerged before my eyes, as she harbored resentment for the last time when Chao Yu helped me, causing her to lose face

He silently glanced at me, his tightly pressed lips indicating that he did not intend to continue the argument. Indeed, he turned and left.

But that's not right, Meizhi. This is from the famous Heji Fish Stall on the next street, and there is even a trademark on the plate! Did you take the packaged dish back to the academy? This seems to violate the academy's new regulations

Damn it! Who on earth has framed me? It's all my fault for being distracted in class, and I don't even know which idiot swapped my dish.

I have begun to contemplate solutions, what should I do now? Oh right, I should ask Chao Yu to help me investigate! Why didn't I think of this sooner?

"If I agree, how will you help me revoke the punishment?" I deliberately raised my voice, hoping to record our conversation

I rushed out, and a tall boy stood in front of me; it was the guy I had just seen last night—Yuan Mubin

You falsely accuse me of bringing in food without permission, causing me to clean the men's restroom here. I must understand this clearly, even if it costs me my life

You need not worry about this; I have already discussed it with Molly

I pretended to negotiate with him while simultaneously activating the recording function on my phone in my pants pocket

Regret? What does it mean? Although I am reluctant to clean the restroom, I regret not seeing who swapped my dishes, but how does he know about this? Speaking of which, I should blame him for making me lose sleep all night and causing me to be distracted.

You say you are foolish, and indeed you are foolish! If it were so easy to clear your name, I would not have gone to such lengths to arrange this. With both witness and material evidence present, you can only accept the punishment

He poked my forehead with his finger and disdainfully said, "It's filthy! Please take away your hand that just cleaned the toilet. Have you finally figured it out? Now you regret it, don't you?"

"If others do not offend me, I will not offend them. This is my fundamental principle of being a person. You have no right to drive me away." I shot him a glare.

Looking at the dish that had "fallen from the sky" in front of me, I hurriedly explained, "This is not mine! Not mine!" Receiving the news so quickly was clearly a deliberate attempt to frame me, yet the situation before me left me at a loss for words

How is it? Is cleaning the restroom very enjoyable? Hahaha! A familiar male voice suddenly rang out

Regret? Rest assured, absolutely not

What? He was a bit surprised, but soon calmed down. It seems you are not yet foolish to the point of no return, but without other evidence to corroborate, the phone recording cannot establish the facts, nor can it be determined that it is my voice

Tsk tsk tsk! Even your insults lack sophistication, merely adding the word 'big' to describe the extent. Well, if you are willing to give up your right to reside in the Qingying Pavilion, I will compensate you with a considerable sum of money, and you will also be exempt from punishment. Think about it, what do you say?" He casually threw out a series of conditions, essentially coercing and enticing, "If you do not agree, then the real show is just beginning, and there will be various punishments following you in the future.

As soon as he left, I found Molly. After hearing the recording, she was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat and stammered that it was a misunderstanding. Seeing her look so terrified and disoriented, I immediately felt refreshed. Haha! I can finally say goodbye to the men's restroom; framing me is not such an easy task.

Hmph, I will not let you succeed! With this, I can file a complaint!" I took out my phone and started playing the recording; just a few short sentences can already clarify the entire issue.

Oh my! I am truly unfortunate, what day is it today

I pointed at his nose and scolded, "So it was you who framed me, you despicable and shameless fellow!"

He frowned and said, "Communicating with an idiot is truly not easy. You are really a fool who has been sold and still counts the money for others"

Is it really that difficult to move in with me at Qingying Pavilion? Why do you always want to drive me away?

I have said that I do not wish to live with a stranger like you. Moreover, in the future, I plan to renovate the Qingying Pavilion and have no intention of seeking your opinion on the matter. He continued to glare at me, his face full of disdain.

Wow! Meizhi truly deserves to be the champion of the last cooking competition; your dish is ready so quickly!

Damn it! Yesterday he mocked me for being too ordinary, and today he called me an idiot. I am utterly worthless in his eyes

You actually colluded with Molly! No wonder Molly gives me no chance to argue at all

How could this be? I clearly did it myself!

I carefully examined the dish in front of me. It was clear at a glance that the exquisite dish before me was not made by me, yet there was no one else seated beside me. Who placed it on my table? Meanwhile, the dish I had prepared had mysteriously vanished.

Molly wore a smug expression on her face, her eyes gleaming with sharpness as she said: "You messy woman, with both witnesses and evidence present, there's no point in your denial! Today, you are punished to clean the restrooms of the academy"

"So, are you planning to go against me to the end?" He widened his eyes and stared at me fiercely, expressing his disappointment in my choice

Although you are not afraid, Molly will be scared. I will let her listen to this, which will at least help me cancel the current punishment. As for the future, I can only respond to challenges as they come.

Do not regret it

I finally managed to complete the cooking somewhat carelessly. Upon hearing my classmate's words, I said: "Hmm... yes... hehe..."

I had not yet figured out what was going on when the door to the kitchen was pushed open by the members of the Life Management Society. Leading the way was Molly, who approached me and immediately said:

I want to file a complaint with the community management office, you have framed me! I am about to be driven to the point of vomiting blood by this venomous man.

We have received an anonymous report that someone has brought food from outside the school, and we are now going to conduct a search

Please, it's not that I want to go against you; it's clearly you who is deliberately making things difficult for me, and now you are turning the tables. How can there be such a person in the world who cannot distinguish right from wrong? Never mind, how can I, Mei Zhi, be bullied for no reason?

Not only is your intelligence lacking, but it seems your hearing is also not very good. Have you forgotten this young master's voice so quickly?" A voice with a very magnetic quality rang out once again, and this time I heard it clearly; the person was outside the bathroom

It seems that today I have achieved a small victory, and I am not afraid of you! Yuan Mubin, feel free to come at me; I am determined to move into the Qingying Pavilion, which is the place I have longed for. I will absolutely not give up!

What exactly do you want to do? Villain! No, a great villain!

He smiled slightly and said, "This is not called collusion; do not put it in such harsh terms. This is called cooperation. She does not seem to have any good feelings towards you either."

Suddenly, I recalled the conversation from last night

Woe is me! It truly stinks. Everyone has gone home to rest after school, yet I am forced to clean the restroom here, and it is the men's restroom.

Who? I looked around but saw no one. Even after school, there were still boys near the bathroom talking to me, which was really strange

I now fully understand the ugly nature of this individual, which is truly a world apart from his outward appearance.

"How did you know I was here?" I widened my eyes and stared at him

I couldn't sleep all night thinking about the will, it is truly frustrating

The classmate next to me looked at me with a face full of sympathy and said, "Meizhi, you are in trouble"

The academy has scheduled a cooking class every Friday, which is my favorite course. However, today I have no desire to cook at all. Half of the class has passed, and I am still preoccupied with thoughts about inheriting the Qingying Pavilion, constantly distracted.

How could this happen? Is it a ghost? Did the head chef run away? How could such a thing occur?

He smugly curled his lips and said: "I specifically came to see how disheveled you look. So, are you regretting it?"
