Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.

"Isn't that Zhang Susu's phone? She really did steal it!"

"I knew it! That's why she came back to the classroom so early—she was stealing something!"

"I thought she was studying hard because she was memorizing during lunch, but it turns out she was just putting on an act."

"When I came in, I saw her nervously holding her textbook, her eyes constantly glancing at Zhang Susu. Now it seems she's acting like she's doing something wrong!"

Cheng Yizhou looked on in disbelief.

How could this happen...?

How come Zhang Susu's phone is actually on Bai Su?

He didn't think he could be wrong...

Cheng Yizhou subconsciously said, "There must be some misunderstanding here."

Bai Su looked at Cheng Yizhou in surprise.

She never imagined that the only person in the class who still believed in her would be Cheng Yizhou.

This was a problem student she initially didn't even want to talk to.

Being trusted by someone you don't know well is a very warm feeling.

Bai Su smiled slightly.

When Zhang Susu saw that Bai Su still had the nerve to laugh, she immediately walked over to Bai Su.

"Thief! How dare you laugh?!"

She raised her hand to slap Bai Su.

Cheng Yizhou hurriedly tried to stop him, but because Chen Qiang was in the middle, he couldn't stop him in time.

Just as the slap was about to land on Bai Su's face, Bai Su grabbed Zhang Susu's wrist with a speed that was invisible to the naked eye.

Bai Su's reaction was so fast that Zhang Susu was momentarily stunned.

By the time I realized what was happening, a sharp pain shot through my wrist.

"Ah—" she cried out in pain, instinctively trying to pull her hand back.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free at all.

"Ye Baisu! Let go!"

She stared intently at Bai Su, as if she wanted to bore a hole through Bai Su's body with her gaze.

Originally, she only resented Bai Su for stealing her phone, but Cheng Yizhou's defense of Bai Su only fueled her anger.

"Let go!" Zhang Susu was both angry and in pain, and her eyes quickly reddened.

"Apologize to me and I'll let go," Bai Su said coldly.

"Me? Apologize to you?" Zhang Susu thought she had heard an outrageous joke.

Her wrist hurt too much to make her smile.

Chen Qiang, standing to the side, had a livid face.

"Ye Baisu, that's enough! You stole someone else's things, and you still have the nerve to say these things? Let go of Zhang Susu's hand right now and apologize to her!"

The students also shouted in unison, "Shameless!"

Bai Su lightly raised her gaze, her eyes sweeping over everyone who had insulted her, and said calmly, "I didn't steal anything, so why should I apologize?"

Everyone wore expressions of disbelief.

Chen Qiang was so angry he laughed.

"The evidence is irrefutable, and you still deny it? I really don't understand how Principal Zhang could have arranged for someone like you to enter our elite class! You've completely disgraced me!"

Bai Su said calmly, "In that case, I can leave the Rocket Class and transfer to another class."

Chen Qiang sneered, "This isn't about whether you're in the advanced class or not. The issue now is that you stole something, which not only violated school rules but also broke the law. I have the authority to have the school expel you!"

"Who said I stole anything?"

Chen Qiang couldn't believe it: "Even now, you still won't admit it? How can any girl have such a thick skin?"

He added, "I originally wanted to downplay this, but your attitude was so rude that I had no choice but to call the police!"

Zhang Susu immediately said, "Teacher Chen, don't wait any longer, call the police now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately felt Bai Su tighten her grip on her wrist.

"ah--"

She cried out in alarm, tears streaming down her face from the pain.

"Teacher Chen, my hand is about to break..."

"Ye Baisu! Let go!"

Bai Su didn't let go; instead, she said, "Weren't you going to call the police? Go ahead and call the police!"

"Fine! Ye Baisu, you're very good! Don't blame me for getting arrested by the police!" Chen Qiang said, taking out his phone to call the police.

Cheng Yizhou instinctively wanted to stop her, but then he caught a glimpse of Bai Su gently shaking her head at him.

He stood there motionless.

The local police station was located near the Third Middle School, so the officers arrived in less than ten minutes.

Chen Qiang immediately stepped forward and explained the situation to the police.

Two police officers walked up to Bai Su with serious expressions.

Bai Su finally released her grip on Zhang Susu's wrist.

Zhang Susu quickly withdrew her hand and saw that her wrist had been bound with a red ring, and it was about to become bruised. She immediately cried to the police officer.

"She not only stole things, but she also injured my wrist."

Two police officers, their faces grim, said, "Young man, please come with us!"

"The person who should be going with you isn't me. It's..."

She raised her hand and pointed at Zhang Susu, then with a flick of her wrist, pointed at Xu Nuo not far away.

"It's the two of them!"

Xu Nuo's eyes widened suddenly, a flicker of guilt flashing across them, but she still forced a smile and said, "Ye Baisu, what do you mean by this?"

Everyone looked puzzled.

Bai Su pointed at Zhang Susu because they had a conflict over the phone, which is understandable.

But what does this have to do with promises?

"What do you mean by that?" One of the officers sensed something was amiss.

Because Bai Su's reaction was too calm.

They've caught countless thieves, and even the most shameless thieves get nervous and uneasy when they see the police.

But the girl in front of him showed no sign of guilt or unease whatsoever.

Could there be another hidden story?

Bai Su's gaze swept over Xu Nuo and Zhang Susu, whose expressions differed, and she slowly said, "One of them slandered me, and the other framed me."

There were more whispers in the classroom.

Xu Nuo couldn't help but feel nervous.

Did Bai Su know that she was the one who did all of this?

That's impossible...

After school at noon, she secretly followed Bai Su until she confirmed that Bai Su had entered the convenience store before rushing back to the classroom.

It's impossible for Bai Su to discover this.

But... why is she so adamant that she should also be taken away by the police?

"Ye Baisu, you can't just say things without evidence!" Chen Qiang warned. "Your behavior could also be considered defamation."

"What if I have evidence?"

"What evidence?"

Bai Su reached into her pocket, took out the phone Cheng Yizhou had lent her, and then pressed the confirmation button on the phone screen without hesitation.

The next second, the projector on the blackboard, which hadn't been turned off during the last class, suddenly went black and then quickly switched to a surveillance camera feed.

The surveillance footage showed the Rocket Class.

"What's going on? She can remotely control our classroom projector?"

"That's not important! Look inside!"

More people looked over.

On the screen, shortly after all the students had left the classroom, the class monitor, Xu Nuo, sneaked back into the classroom.

Upon seeing this scene, Xu Nuo's pupils dilated instantly.

How could this be...?

The surveillance cameras in the classroom broke down a few days ago, didn't they?

The homeroom teacher also specifically said that they shouldn't think they can act recklessly just because the surveillance cameras are broken; he would frequently come to patrol during class time...

That's why she dared to frame Bai Su.

While she was still in shock, the person on the screen had already arrived at Zhang Susu's seat and then skillfully took Zhang Susu's phone out of Zhang Susu's bag.

She then went to Bai Su's seat and put Zhang Susu's phone into Bai Su's backpack.

This scene was clearly recorded by surveillance cameras.

Xu Nuo's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and her mind went completely blank.

Only one voice kept repeating in my head: "It's over, she's finished..."

Upon seeing this, the classroom instantly fell silent.

After a two-second silence, a huge commotion suddenly erupted.

"It was the class monitor who did it... Bai Su didn't steal the phone, she was framed."

Why did Xu Nuo frame Ye Baisu?

Some speculated: "Could it be that she's jealous that Ye Baisu is Cheng Yizhou's deskmate? It's no secret that she likes Cheng Yizhou..."

"I never would have guessed that the class monitor would be this kind of person."

"No wonder Ye Baisu asked the class monitor if he believed her at the beginning; it turns out she already knew that the class monitor had framed her."

"I really misjudged her! I even spoke up for her just now."

"What a scheming girl!"

"That's terrifying! Luckily, Bai Su had evidence, otherwise she would have been framed and taken to the police station!"

The overwhelming barrage of insults pierced Xu Nuo's ears, causing her already thin face to flush red instantly, then quickly turn pale.

The projector kept playing the video on a loop, as if it were repeatedly whipping her corpse.

Xu Nuo finally couldn't take it anymore and screamed like a madman, "Turn it off! Turn it off now!"

But those who had just spoken up for her were now all looking at her with cold eyes.

Xu Nuo was on the verge of collapse.

Bai Su curled her lips into a cold smile.

Is this all you can't handle?

She has other surprises in store!

Bai Su operated the phone again, and the projector quickly switched to a chat screenshot.

It was the message Xu Nuo sent to Zhang Susu last night.

The message contained a candid photo of Bai Su entering the residential area from behind.

Then came a few paragraphs—

Xu Nuo: [It seems the new classmate is being kept by a rich guy...]

Zhang Susu: [What?! This is huge gossip!]

Xu Nuo: [This is just a guess, it's not certain yet, so don't tell anyone.]

Zhang Susu: [Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone.]

The students' eyes widened instantly.

It turns out that when Zhang Susu first suspected Bai Su of stealing her phone, she said that Bai Su was being kept by a man, and that's where the idea came from.

Everyone in the class knows that Zhang Susu is a very gossipy girl, but Xu Nuo sent this message to Zhang Susu. Her intentions are obvious.

Everyone looked at Xu Nuo with even more disgust, as if they were looking at a disgusting cockroach.

Just like the way they looked at Bai Su when they first thought she was a thief.

But now the tables have turned, and that gaze has fallen upon Xu Nuo himself.

"Turn it off! Turn it off now!"

Xu Nuo completely broke down. She rushed to the podium and forcefully pressed the power button on the projected computer.

The screen finally went dark.

But it's too late to do all this now...

She can't blame anyone but herself; she brought this upon herself, shooting herself in the foot.
