Chapter 51 - 1 Talking About Her
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Because Fang Ya’s identity was too prominent, almost all the people around them were staring at them.
Along the way, the gossip around her did not stop with almost everyone discussing what her relationship was with Fang Ya.
“Isn’t that the principal’s daughter? This newcomer is a little amazing. It’s only the first day of school, and she already has ties with Fang Ya. Doesn’t that mean that she’ll be able to do whatever she wants in this school from now on?”
“The key person herself is the top scorer in Science. Doesn’t everyone know how difficult Science is this year?”
“Tsk tsk, this newcomer is really not simple. It’s already fine if only her grades are good, but she’s also good-looking. She’s not inferior in front of the Great Beauty Fang Ya.”
“What’s there to be surprised about? It’s only the first day of school, and she’s already showing off. Who knows if she’ll use Fang Ya’s relationship to do bad things in the future?”
Xu Wanwan took a deep breath as she listened to these words with mixed feelings.
She did not like to make a fuss, so she did not ask Li Jingran to send her in.
Who would have thought that she would be caught off guard? It was only the first day of school, and she was already pushed into the limelight.
After going around the school with Fang Ya, Xu Wanwan found an excuse and went straight to her class.
The classroom was spacious and bright. The counselor was registering the new students’ information. Xu Wanwan arrived a little late, so she hurriedly registered her information, then found a seat to sit down.
Next to her sat a girl with short hair and ears who exclaimed—
“You must be the top scorer in Science!”
In this enclosed environment, her voice sounded particularly shrill. The entire class, including the counselor, cast their gazes at her.

Xu Wanwan frowned slightly. Lowering her gaze, she said softly, “Yes, I am.”
“Hi, how are you? My name is Lin Jianan.” The girl’s face was full of excitement as she introduced herself.
She didn’t expect she’d be lucky enough to sit with the top scorer of Science on the first day of school.
Xu Wanwan nodded and asked hesitantly, “How did you recognize me?”
“You’re on the campus forum, so the entire school probably knows you by now.”
The more Lin Jianan talked, the more excited she became. “I’m so lucky that I got to sit with you in person. By the way, do you mind if I take a photo with you and post it on the campus forum?”
Xu Wanwan wanted to refuse, but when she saw Lin Jianan’s friendly and eager eyes, she compromised. “I don’t mind.”
“That’s great.” The corners of Lin Jiannan’s eyes curved up. She pulled Xu Wanwan closer and took some nice photos.
She beamed as she zoomed the photos with both hands. She wanted to beautify Xu Wanwan, but she couldn’t pick any flaws at all.
“How do you usually take care of your skin? Your skin condition is really good. You’re really too good-looking.”
“Me?” Xu Wanwan was a little surprised. “I’ve never used a face mask before. I just wash my face normally.”
“Oh my God, then your foundation is too good. When the time comes, the new school belle will definitely be you.”
Xu Wanwan had not given a thought about this kind of thing. “I just want to study hard.”
Lin Jianan became engrossed in posting as she tapped on the screen with her fingertips. “It’s done. I’m just waiting for the post to be pushed onto the hot list.”
As soon as she said that, a vibration came from the phone.
Lin Jianan looked at it and opened her mouth wide. “No way, someone has liked and commented already!”
“Is that selfie of the top scorer in Science real or fake? I wonder how much whitening and microdermabrasion she gave herself. Look at the contrast of the face of the girl next to her...”
“This Xu Wanwan has already been on the hot list twice today. This woman is really scheming. In order to become popular in the school, she really changed her method to make her presence felt.”
“I used to like her, but she likes to show off so much. I don’t like her anymore.”
“Exactly. Everyone goes to the same key university. Why does she have to raise her status just because her grades are better?”
Lin Jianan got angrier and angrier as she scrolled through the comments and saw many inappropriate comments.
“Wanwan, why are the people in school like this? They keep saying bad things about you.”
As she said that, she handed her phone to Xu Wanwan. “I’ll delete this post later. If a person is indeed popular, there’s gossip. Some people are just sour, ah!”
Xu Wanwan looked at the comments below the post with a calm expression. Her heart did not fluctuate much.
She had already been through all kinds of storms, so she could not care less about such a trivial matter.
On the contrary, it was Lin Jianan who was very angry instead as she held her phone and scolded the netizens for three hundred rounds. In the end, she simply deleted the post.
After the counselor finished registering the new students’ information, she organized the students in the class to introduce themselves.
Xu Wanwan was sitting in the back few rows, so there was still a while before it was her turn to introduce herself.
The phone in her pocket was vibrating non-stop. She carefully took out her phone and opened QQ.
There were hundreds of messages in the group chat. The latest one that popped up was a photo.
Third Brother Is The Most Handsome: “Guys! I started school today and ran into our school’s top scorer in Science. She’s absolutely beautiful in person!”
At first glance, Xu Wanwan felt that this photo was very similar to her.
She wanted to scold herself for being shameless, but the moment she clicked on the photo, she was completely dumbfounded.
This couldn’t be just “like” her—it was clearly her!
The sound of her phone vibrating became more and more frequent as the people in the group started discussing fervently again.
“This little sister is indeed quite pretty. Isn’t she an inappropriate recruitment prospect?”
“Everyone, did you guys forget something? Not only is she good-looking but also the top scorer in Science.”
“Haaa, it’d be great if such an outstanding person is my classmate. Unlike our school where there aren’t just that many good-looking people.”
Third Brother Is The Most Handsome sent a rather proud message. “Of course! Our A university is a top university. All the good-looking men and beautiful women here are very outstanding.”
Xu Wanwan looked at these comments with faint interest. She wanted to close her phone.
Right that moment, Third Brother Is The Most Handsome tagged her. “Just A Bunny, aren’t you also studying at A University? I’m currently in the department. Want to meet up later?”
Xu Wanwan raised her eyes and looked at her classmates introducing themselves at the podium, then rejected them quietly. “I’m sorry. I still have a lot of things to do today. Maybe next time.”
Fluttering Skirt suddenly popped up. “What? I guess she doesn’t deserve her name and doesn’t dare to come out and meet everyone.”
Xia Momo: “Shocking! Could it be that she’s really a scumbag?”
“Of course! If she’s innocent, why would she hide and not dare to meet everyone?”
Liu He couldn’t stand it any longer and argued, “Can you guys stop speculating maliciously about others? They already said that they just don’t have the time. What’s the point of overthinking?”
Third Brother Is The Most Handsome took the initiative to mediate the situation. “It’s fine, it’s fine. When Just A Bunny is free, it’s not too late for us to meet again.”
The students in front of her finished their introductions one after another. Xu Wanwan ignored the messages in the group and closed her phone.
After a while, it was her turn to go up the stage to introduce herself.
Under the gaze of the entire class, Xu Wanwan stood up and walked toward the podium. The corners of her lips curled up into a smile, and her tone was calm. “Hello, everyone. My name is Xu Wanwan.”
After she finished saying her name, she prepared to get off the podium when the counselor gave her a reminder. “This student, please introduce yourself to everyone again.. For example, where you graduated, your usual interests, and so on.”
