She had a clear plan in mind.
If only the waitstaff were involved, at most only a few people would witness such a scene. Her father would suppress the matter for the sake of face, and even though Mei Shu would still be ridiculed afterward, the effect would be greatly diminished.
The most direct approach was to make everyone witness it together.
This way, even if her father tried to protect Mei Shu afterward, he wouldn’t be able to silence the rumors!
She had let Mei Shu enjoy herself for far too long. Today, she must drag her into the abyss and make sure she could never turn the tables again!
Upon hearing this, Mei Yun didn’t hesitate and thought it was a good idea. He immediately instructed someone to take care of it.
Mei Mu and Wang Yue, mother and daughter, smiled at each other, and they could see the excitement in each other’s eyes.
The time for the banquet had arrived.
Mei Yun and his wife Wang Yue stood in the center of the stage, expressing their gratitude to the guests with smiles on their faces.
Wang Yue held Mei Yun’s arm, exuding a gentle and composed smile, even managing to display some qualities of a capable hostess.
However, everyone present knew her true nature and didn’t regard her as anything important. They continued to chat and laugh as if Wang Yue, who was speaking on stage, was invisible.
This made Wang Yue’s face turn green with anger.
But thinking about her upcoming goal, she forced an awkward smile and continued to play the role of a gentle and loving mother in front of everyone, her nails going deep into the flesh in her palm.
Soon, Mei Yun explained to everyone why Mei Shu couldn’t appear in person.
As he finished speaking, the large screen behind him suddenly lit up, followed by a suggestive and blush-inducing sound that resonated throughout the entire hall.
Everyone’s attention was instantly drawn to it.
Mei Mu’s face was filled with joy as she fixed her gaze on the screen, not even daring to blink.
At the right moment, Wang Yue displayed a look of panic and disbelief, screaming with astonishment, “What is this? You must be mistaken! This definitely isn’t Mei Shu!”
At that moment, the woman on the screen was tearing off a man’s clothes, her fair and long legs wrapped around his waist, and she moaned and whispered seductively, causing the hearts of the adults present to race and their faces to blush.
However, due to the cameraman’s perspective, the woman’s face was conveniently blocked by the man’s fat and large head, making it impossible to tell who she was.
“No way? Miss Mei Shu actually did something like this with a man at her own welcome banquet?”
“No wonder she grew up in the countryside. She must have learned all sorts of inappropriate things from those people outside! To not be able to control herself in such a situation, I wonder if she’ll have any face to show up in the future!”
The people making these remarks were young girls who usually tried to flatter Mei Mu. They were scattered among the crowd, continuously tarnishing Mei Shu’s reputation.
Many people had witnessed the incident where Mei Shu was knocked down and sent back to the resting room just a while ago.
So almost everyone present quickly concluded that the woman in the video was indeed Mei Shu!
Mei Mu felt triumphant in her heart, but on the surface, she maintained a tearful expression, as if she had been greatly wronged.
“Don’t you dare say such things about my sister! My sister is definitely not that kind of person! She… she couldn’t be!”
Hearing her words, everyone became even more convinced.
“I never expected it. The once beautiful Miss Mei Shu now can even share a bed with such a man. Such a young age, but she’s already incorrigible. I bet she’ll become a promiscuous woman who sleeps around in the future!”
The crowd’s slander against Mei Shu grew louder.
Mei Yun’s face turned pale, and he quickly ordered someone to inform the on-site cameramen to turn off the cameras.
But it was too late.
The people present were all from prestigious families, and it was rare for them to witness such a scene. Several men had even recorded the video and shared it with their circles and others, reveling in the seductive and enchanting display of Mei Shu in bed.
“Don’t say such things! I believe in Mei Shu!” Lu Yan was already sweating profusely, and he also ordered someone to quickly go to the resting room and find out what had happened!
With his intervention, everyone immediately fell silent.
Lu Yan’s mother, Qin Qin, immediately stepped forward and grabbed her son’s hand. “Yanyan, this matter has nothing to do with you. Don’t get involved.” What kind of status did their Lu family have?
She had come here today solely because of her son’s face.. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even want to have the slightest connection with the Mei family!
