“This darned photographer. If you want to take photos, just walk openly into the shop and take them. What’s the point of sneaking around outside? Unbelievable!” Chu Ning thought helplessly.

Great. Now people like her deskmate, Xiaomi, would only think that she looked like the person in the photo, but would not think that they were one and the same!

“What are you saying? Are you jealous of her breathtaking beauty?” Xiaomi said with a sigh.

“No.” Chu Ning had no need to be jealous of herself.

“Do you really think she is very good-looking?” Chu Ning returned.

“Of course! She is super gorgeous! It’s just that she looks a bit like you. That’s not good. There’s no mystique.” Xiaomi said proudly, but the second half of her sentence made Chu Ning gnash her teeth in anger.

“You dislike me that much?” Chu Ning said despairingly.

“The grass is always greener on the other side, and you’re not as beautiful as her in the first place,” Xiaomi continued to attack her mercilessly.

“Then do you want her autograph?” Chu Ning said suddenly, with a mysterious expression.

“Of course I do! Do you have a way to get it?” Xiaomi’s eyes lit up upon hearing that.

“Of course I do.” Chu Ning calmly took out a piece of draft paper and cheekily wrote “Chu Ning” on it before handing it to Xiaomi.

“Tsk, I thought you really knew her. Take it away, don’t make fun of me.” Xiaomi pouted, looking displeased.

“Actually, she is a distant cousin of mine. I recognized her at the first look.” Chu Ning looked at Xiaomi’s expression and felt happy. She couldn’t help but tease her.

“Huh? No way, could there really be such a coincidence? I knew it! How could two people be so similar? It turns out that you’re really blood-related! Then do you have her contact information? I want to be her fan!” Xiaomi said with some excitement.

“I don’t have it. She just came to stay at my house for a night. Chatting with her was all I thought about at that time. In the end, it’s only when she left the next day that I remembered that I didn’t ask for her contact information. Sigh, I missed it. I’ll definitely ask for it for you next time!”

Chu Ning’s expression remained unchanged as she made up a story with a straight face.

“Chu Ning, you aren’t lying to me again, are you?” Xiaomi was a little doubtful.

“Why would I lie to you? I am Jingyuan High School’s God of learning. Is there a need to lie to you? There’s no benefit to me to do so; I don’t need to make up such a thing.” Chu Ning shook her head with a serious expression.

“Really?” Xiaomi was skeptical.

“Really.” Chu Ning nodded indifferently.

“Well, if you meet her again in the future, you must remember to help me obtain her contact information. Ideally, you’d get me an autograph!” Xiaomi exhorted Chu Ning solemnly.

“Well, you aren’t satisfied with the autograph I gave you? I’m her distant cousin. Isn’t it the same?” Chu Ning held back a smile.

“Chu Ning, I think you’re tired of living.” After saying that, she reached out to tickle her armpits.

“Ah… Xiaomi, I’m in the wrong.” Chu Ning begged for mercy.

“Then, will you or will you not request for her autograph for me?” Xiaomi said threateningly.

“I’ll ask for it, I’ll ask for it for you. Stop it; class is about to start.” Chu Ning pleaded.

“Hmph, then I’ll grudgingly let you off this time.” Xiaomi said proudly.

“But tomorrow, you’re going to start the real performance. Do you want to dress up a little? I don’t want you to be upstaged by that hateful fellow.” The hateful fellow Xiaomi was referring to was obviously Ye Ting.

“Don’t worry, I have already made my preparations.”

Chu Ning continued, “What did Ye Ting do to provoke you? Isn’t she rather pretty? From your tone, you seem to hate her very much.”

“Of course! It’s not that I seem to; I really do hate her! I always feel that she speaks in an unpredictable manner. And she’s always going against you, whether openly or obscurely. Tsk, she’s a black-hearted person!”

Xiaomi spat, venting her dissatisfaction with Ye Ting.

“Uh, actually, you don’t have to think so badly of her. Things between me and her are very complicated, but I don’t want you to view her through colored lenses; everything should be objective and fair.”

Chu Ning tried to persuade her. She didn’t expect her deskmate Xiaomi to have such a view of Ye Ting. Although what she had said was true, she wasn’t so vicious that she wanted the whole class or even the whole school to hate Ye Ting; she was quite principled in that regard.

“Hmph, this has nothing to do with you. I just hate her! If Luo Yu hadn’t helped you out previously, don’t you believe that she would continue to sow discord?” Xiaomi was still unconvinced and said angrily.
