“Don’t, ” The beautiful lady dressed in a pink dress held the hand of the young girl softly said and patted her head. “Wanwan, everyone has their own preferences. Like how you watch those foreign shows that your dad and I don’t understand and like. In a similar way, someone doesn’t like the music I make. If they don’t understand the music I make, it is just noise for them. We always try to run from noise as it hurts our ears.”

Mu Wanwan pouted but nodded her head. She looked at the face of the girl once again and etched it in her head. She would remember this girl who said about her mom. So, what if this girl was a small-time celebrity?

“Mom, I want to attend classes from today. I want to get to know about the environment of this school, ” Mu Wanwan said. “I haven’t felt the same in old school. It just feels too different. We can’t carry phones or other gadgets with us but they don’t mind if we take a day off and attend online classes. Aren’t they being weird?”

Yang Zi laughed. “You just feel weird because the curriculum of this school is different. You will be fine. I will have the teacher take you to the class. I will come to pick you up.”

“Oh no, mom, you will be tired, why don’t you send the driver?” Mu Wanwan asked.

“Alright, ” Yang Zi smiled as she waved her daughter goodbye.

It was her first day of school. When she entered the doors of class A, she got the biggest shock of her life. The students only raised their eyes once to look who had come. When they saw that it wasn’t a teacher but a new student, they turned their gazes back at the revision material._.

She was used to getting the attention of the entire school but here she was just like a normal student. She was a celebrity kid but she wasn’t treated the same here. She felt so weird that she couldn’t express it in words.

“Can I sit here?” Mu Wanwan smiled at the boy whose seat was empty.

“What’s your score?” The boy blandly asked.

“95%” Mu Wanwan proudly said. She got the best results in her section last time. She was so proud of it.

“I’m 96.6%” The boy groaned as he did some calculations in his head. He turned to look at the classmate sitting behind him and asked, “What was the cut-off of our class this time?”

“Lu Xuan was the last and he scored 95.2%” The classmate said with a bitter look on his face. “Such low scorers dream of entering our class A.”

“The last desk is yours, “The first boy looked at girl and said. “You are the last ranker. You know now. Please leave. I have to revise the syllabus.”historical

“This is the test for today?” Mu Wanwan asked. She was too stunned to utter a word. What on earth had she gotten herself into? 95% was the score of the last scorer of this class?

“No, this is the test for next Saturday. I am already behind. Do not disturb me, “The boy said.

Soon the class started and Mu Wanwan took the seat on the last bench alone. She attended the lecture, took notes and the teacher didn’t even ask her to make introductions. No, nothing like this at all. While the teacher was teaching the difficult topic, she looked at the faces of her classmates who appeared as if they knew everything the teacher was teaching and she also pretended that she understood everything.

Nobody talked to her much. It wasn’t that she was ignored. The students just didn’t talk more than they were asked. Just expect crisp and precise replies.

After two more classes, the lunch break bell finally rang.

Mu Wanwan looked at the girl sitting on the first desk. She heard the teacher calling the girl’s name frequently and she also found out that she was the class volunteer while the boy sitting on the desk ahead of her was the class representative.

When the period was over, she thought of approaching Song Xueyun, the class topper and class volunteer. However, before she could approach her, a girl barged through the class door holding three tiffin boxes and juice bottles. The same boys who ignored her quickly stood up to help her.

“Campus Belle, let us help you, “The first boy said with a shy smile. “You might trip if you held too many things.”

An Xiulan flashed a bright smile at the boy. “Student Gao, you are so nice.” She handed him the juice bottles.”

“Let me hold these tiffins too, “The other boy said.

“Student Lin, not only are you intelligent but kind too. May you top the monthly test, “An Xiulan said sweetly.

The boy’s smile widened. It was as if he had achieved his favourite boon.

An Xiulan walked to the second last desk and sighed when she saw her dear Yan Gege studying even in lunch break. She leaned down and removed his reading glasses, taking his attention. She also tapped on Lu Xuan’s shoulder.

“Mom sent us lunch, “An Xiulan said. “Eat it.”

“Thank you, Crybaby, “Gu Shangyan smiled at her.

“Well, it wasn’t necessary but I don’t wanna go to the cafeteria, “Lu Xuan said and the boys passed the lunches to both of them. He gave a look to the two assistants of his sister but didn’t say anything else.

“Student Gao and Student Lin, this is for you, “An Xiulan said as she gave them two bars of chocolate.

“What was the need for chocolates?” The boys blushed.

“Mom says we should always be grateful to any kind of help, “An Xiulan said and waved them goodbye.

The boys went to their seats when their job was done and An Xiulan hugged Song Xueyun.
