The Fourth Branch's downfall

"What do you mean, Mother? Should I just do nothing while the school mocks me? The school has been siding with Bei Sangyun!"

Lin Sunji could not believe what she was hearing. Her mother told her to accept the school's punishment and stay low in the meantime. She couldn't accept it. If she let the school do what they wanted, would she ever be able to lift her face there in the future?

She would become the talk of the entire school!

"I have been appearing a lot and putting much effort into building up my fame. If people find out that I have been expelled from the school, they will laugh at me. All the effort I have put in will be in vain!"

Li Mei felt her temples ache. She was not in a good mood lately, and Lin Sunji's yammering did not help. Li Mei appeared exhausted and drained. There was a lot of pressure from the first and second branches. The capable people on their side had jumped ship, and the others suddenly withdrew their support.
