The old lady felt confident this time. She was sure she could make Mei Shu bow her head and obediently come home with her.

Then she could have her way in tormenting Mei Shu and those stinky little boys; it would all be under her control!

Thinking like this, the old lady shouted again, “I want to take her back to teach her a lesson properly. You don’t know, this child has had no mother to educate her since she was young, so she’s turned out like this. Look, I’m her real grandmother! I’ve been standing outside her door for so long, and she won’t even open it for me! Which family’s child is as unfilial as her?”

“Yeah, it’s outrageous! She has no manners at all!”

The people around started accusing Mei Shu one after another, and their voices changed from whispers to open mockery.

Mei Feng’s face turned pale. He was about to speak up for his sister when Mei Shu pulled him back.

“Don’t rush, today I’ll give you your first lesson, be patient.” Mei Shu stood still with her arms crossed, waiting patiently.

Soon, Zhao Yan returned with a document and a dusty megaphone he had somehow managed to find.

He was sweating profusely, out of breath, afraid that if he came back late, Miss and young masters would suffer unnecessarily.

Mei Shu handed him a tissue to wipe his sweat and took the things from him. She thanked him softly.

But when she turned to the old lady, her voice echoed through the megaphone, instantly resonating throughout the entire villa area.

“Pan Hua! Stop causing trouble here! Everyone, don’t be fooled by her! You all are people of status, how can you not understand the principle of not judging everything by one side, and not blindly believing in rumors?”

With that, she raised the asset transfer agreement signed by her father himself and her asset certificate, and had Zhao Yan turn on the lights at the entrance. Standing under the spotlight, she looked like she was on a stage in front of thousands.

“What I’m holding is the agreement signed by my father to transfer the company to me personally. Inside is my asset certificate. Everything 1 own now is earned by my own hands, without spending a penny from the family! What she said about stealing money was because she hated my father’s decision to entrust the company to me for full management!”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd erupted into a commotion.

Seeing the tide turning against her, the old lady hurriedly shouted, “Why would you believe what she says? In this dim light, who can prove whether the documents she’s holding are real or fake? Don’t let her fool you like a bunch of fools!”

Mei Shu sneered, put down the documents, and said, “I know it’s hard for everyone to believe just bywords alone. Those present should all be ladies, stewards, and servants living in this neighborhood. You should have heard about the change of ownership of the Mei Corporation.”

“I am Mei Shu, the current president of the Mei Corporation. We may have business cooperation in future. Will you believe an old lady’s baseless rumors, or will you believe me? You all have bright eyes and can decide for yourselves!”

“So she’s Mei Shu! I’ve been asking about their identity since they moved here, but this family keeps a tight lid on information. I only just found out they’re from the Mei family!”

“Mei Shu? Isn’t she the Miss Mei who’s dating Master Si? My spouse mentioned her before, saying she’s brave and resourceful, although young, she runs the company efficiently. She’s very talented!”

Mei Shu’s words successfully turned the tide.

In fact, she hadn’t rushed to defend herself from the beginning because she knew she wasn’t the same powerless Mei Shu as before.

Now she was the highest leader of the Mei Corporation, with absolute authority in the Mei family. These people knew whether to support a vulgar old lady or a future company leader who might cooperate with their families in the future!

Relying on her identity as her grandmother to cause trouble and slander her was just a foolish move.

In just a few words, the situation was completely reversed.

The old lady was completely panicked. Unable to refute Mei Shu, she began to cry and wail, “Oh, my life is so bitter! I’m old and no one wants me anymore!” “Your father used to be so filial to me when he was in charge of the company, buying me this and that, but now he trusts you and hands over the company to you, and what about you? You completely ignore me, a poor old woman! How am 1 supposed to live in the future?”

Mei Shu’s eyes didn’t hide the sarcasm. This old lady just wanted to use public opinion to force Mei Shu to return with her so she could continue to profit from the company.

Otherwise, if her source of income was cut off, how would she maintain her usual high level of spending?

The old lady’s crying gave everyone a headache, and someone couldn’t bear to see it anymore and stepped forward to speak for her.

“President Mei, this is what 1 think. Your grandmother is indeed getting old. Why don’t you invite her in first, and talk about it behind closed doors? She’s an old lady, she doesn’t need much in terms of food and clothing.. Why cause such a scene at the door and let everyone laugh at you?”
