With the few latest editions of Macroeconomics and Principles of Economics, Mo Ning arrived at the library.
âOh, hey, Mo Ning, youâre here!â Said Liu Beibei as she waved at Mo Ning happily.
âSorry, something caught on me, letâs go.â
Liu Beibei nodded and picked a corner near the window to sit with Mo Ning, who sat in a very formal posture like an illustration of a fairytale prince.
âGosh, everytime I see him, itâs as if the air just disappeared!â
âHow handsome, I want him to propel me in my bed!â
â...â Mo Ning raised one of her eyes.
Propel? Sorry to disappoint, I donât have the necessary tool to propel you, girl.
Mo Ning decided to ignore the gossip and flipped through the theory of scarcity. Nevertheless, in the next hour, it appeared that every few so often a girl would âcoincidentallyâ walk by her desk, drop their books, purse, pencil cases, anything or they would brush Mo Ningâs arm then apologize for their âcarelessnessâ with a wink, sometimes a few.
âNing...â Initiated Liu Beibei after a while.
âSo, I heard that Yan Sinian has joined your dormitory.â
âYes.â
âThereâs something weird about him...â Added Liu Beibei, a warning all of sudden, âBe careful, okay?â
Be careful? What?
Mo Ning looked totally bewildered at Beibei.
Every girl in this school complimented Yan Sinian as if an reincarnation of Flynn Rider and youâre saying that heâs weird?
Liu Beibei, who seemingly caught on Mo Ningâs eyes, replied with a whisper âThe moment Luo Bei left the house, he just moved in. I think itâs kinda clear of what he wants.â
âAlright, Iâll take caution.â Mo Ning replied approvingly with an unspoken rule of letting sensitive issues beâa sign of their rapport.
âBeibei, what other course do you plan to take?â
âMaybe music. I thought of becoming a singer after graduation...Hope that thereâll be people who like me at least...â Liu Beibei whispered with blushes on her face.
Mo Ning combed her hair with her fingers, âWell, I am a person with great taste. If I like you, people should like you too.â
âR-really...â said Beibei very softly as her face completely reddened.
Meanwhile in between one of the racks nearby...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat?!â
âShuuush!â The girls had been spying on Mo Ning since the very second Mo Ning sat down and their hatred towards Liu Beibei grew exponentially the moment Mo Ning âconfessedâ about her feelingsâa super big scoop among them. âWe need to let the people know, especially that girl.â
âYes.â
Just like Mo Ning and Liu Beibei who headed to the cafeteria and to the classroom respectively, the two eavesdroppers quickly left the library too.
It had been an hour.
âIâll just have to place these books back in my drawer, Iâll join you at the cafeteria shortly.â Liu Beibeiâs words echoed yet an hour had passed.
Mo Ning frowned in worry as she walked through the corridor.
âLin Da, did you know what Liu Beibei just did?â
âWhat?â
âShe just did that to our idol. OUR IDOL! How shameless she is! Itâs terrifying!â
The exchange caught Mo Ningâs complete attention. She stormed towards them and seized one of their hands. They were furious talking about Liu Beibei at first but Mo Ningâs sudden entry turned them into a shrinking violet.
âAh...Mo...Mo Ning? Hey...whatâs up?â
The drastic change of personality gave goosebumps all over her body as she withdrew her hand, âHey, pretty girl, can I ask you something?â
âPretty girl?â The girl was stunned. Even though it was a big fat lie, it sounded very convincing coming from their idol, the girl nodded vigorously, âYes, anything. Anything. You want my birthdate for astrology?â
âUh...no. But something more important.â
Good. Tell me everything.
Mo Ning gave off a friendly smile and little did people know that was when she had the nastiest plot.
