Chapter 13 The Halo of Love at First Sight
It's terrifying to think about.
Ning Wanwan quickly stopped there.
However, she also reflected on herself and realized that she was indeed too prone to overthinking and getting scared.
They were just exchanging a few words with her, it was just normal classmate interaction.
I'm in the same novel, the same world, the same city, and even the same school as these characters.
There's always a chance of encountering it.
So what if they're a little complicated? That's perfectly normal.
Getting scared every time is bad for your heart.
Thinking about this, Ning Wanwan decided that she should try to be more calm and composed in the future.
They're just main characters, supporting characters, and villains; it's nothing to worry about.
No matter how brutal things get later in the story, the world is still normal and hasn't gone into chaos yet, so they won't do anything to me.
Sigh, if only that moment of upheaval would never come, it would be so much easier to just keep living this peaceful life.
Ning Wanwan was lost in thought. After the teacher started the lesson, she tried to banish those chaotic thoughts and began to listen attentively.
This will also help her calm down and calm her somewhat agitated mood...
At lunchtime, Ning Wanwan watched her classmates rushing to the cafeteria and could almost imagine how crowded it must be.
She might run into many classmates she doesn't know well but recognizes while getting food.
That's...that's terrifying.
Ning Wanwan shuddered and decided to wait in the classroom until there were fewer people at the back before going.
Strangely, Lin Ruowei didn't leave either. After the number of people in the classroom gradually decreased, she looked at Ning Wanwan.
"You know that slut surnamed Chen?"
His tone wasn't very friendly; he crossed his arms and looked at her with an unfriendly expression.
It took Ning Wanwan, whose surname was Shen, a while to realize that Lin Ruowei was referring to Shen Wu.
Why is everyone so concerned about whether Shen Wu knows her? Does she look like the type to associate with someone so dazzling and perfect?
Ning Wanwan felt a little helpless. Seeing that Lin Ruowei seemed dissatisfied, she quickly replied, "I don't know her... She just asked me to call her teacher."
After hearing Ning Wanwan's explanation, Lin Ruowei's expression softened considerably.
"You're my follower, so don't you dare associate with those hypocritical guys. If I find out, you'll be sorry."
The tone had softened considerably, but the content... well, it still had a threatening tone.
Ning Wanwan pursed her lips, her heart as calm as still water, and softly said okay.
Just as Lin Ruowei was about to leave, Ning Wanwan called her back.
"I bought you nail trimmers this morning, they didn't cost that much... I've already transferred the rest of the money to you."
Lin Ruowei took out her phone and saw that she had indeed received the message that had been forwarded.
"Why, Ning Wanwan, do you suddenly not want money anymore?" Lin Ruowei asked in surprise, a slight smile playing on her lips, tinged with disdain.
"This money is for your errand fee. Are you still not satisfied and want more, or are you just getting a little conceited?"
Ning Wanwan paused, looking at Lin Ruowei's dismissive and indifferent expression.
"No, but I don't want to accept it..."
"Don't push your luck, behave yourself, and keep your ulterior motives to yourself."
Lin Ruowei answered a phone call, waved her hand impatiently, threw those words at Ning Wanwan, and then walked out on her own.
Ning Wanwan: "...Huh?"
What little thoughts?
[It's probably about your ulterior motives of trying to squeeze into their circle, and your desire to climb up to those rich kids like Zhao Rui...]
Ning Wanwan: "...Oh, this."
In order to squeeze into the social circle and get in touch with the rich second generation, the original owner fawned over Lin Ruowei for more than half a year, being proactive, attentive, and always available whenever she was called. Later, Lin Ruowei reluctantly accepted this little follower, although she treated the original owner as a tool, she would still take her to parties and such.
Ning Wanwan sighed, "Sigh..."
Honestly, although she received the original owner's memories, she had almost forgotten the original owner's "goals".
To be fair, although the original owner's methods were rather questionable, he was actually quite proactive in pursuing his goals and was willing to endure and go all out.
Even Ning Wanwan, a socially awkward and laid-back person, couldn't help but admire her.
In any case, Ning Wanwan herself would find it difficult to persist in trying to please others in order to achieve her goals, even amidst contemptuous and disdainful stares or indifference.
"I'm more likely to end up as dust in the corner..." Ning Wanwan said to the system.
System: [I think you're more likely to be doing your own thing quietly by yourself, not wanting anyone to pay attention to you...]
Ning Wanwan: "..." It seems that she is not wrong to say that she doesn't want others to pay attention to her.
After waiting for about half an hour, guessing that there should be fewer people in the cafeteria, Ning Wanwan took her meal card and went to the cafeteria.
Fortunately, although the original owner had no money left, she still had more than 100 yuan on her meal card, and the cafeteria food was relatively cheap, so she could at least last for a few days.
This relieved some of Ning Wanwan's pressure.
Next, Ning Wanwan plans to sell the original owner's designer bags, clothes, cosmetics, and other items on second-hand websites to get some money to support her future life.
Anyway, she doesn't need those things.
If all else fails, I'll try to find a part-time job... But life seems calm on the surface, but undercurrents are still surging. For safety's sake, it's best to hold on as long as possible...
As Ning Wanwan was getting her food and lost in thought, she saw Shen Wu pass by the cafeteria entrance.
Beside her were a large group of men and women, chattering and fawning over her.
Ning Wanwan was once again amazed by the popularity of this female lead, and then quietly took her plate and found a corner to sit down.
Eating in less crowded places makes her feel more comfortable.
However, although the food in the cafeteria is inexpensive, the taste is truly indescribable...
Just as Ning Wanwan was concentrating on cooking, a hand suddenly landed on the table in her line of sight. The slender, white fingers were slightly bent, and the knuckles tapped lightly.
"We meet again." Shen Wu smiled gently at her.
When Ning Wanwan saw who it was, she was surprised and almost instinctively blurted out without thinking, "You're eating in the cafeteria too?"
In Shen Wu's eyes, the girl's cheeks were stuffed full, and she was holding the cutlery tightly in her hand. Her eyes were wide open, and she looked just like a frightened little squirrel.
Shen Wu paused for a moment, then her smile softened even more: "No, but you can try it next time."
Ning Wanwan looked up and stared blankly for a long time before she came to her senses when she met the other person's smiling eyes. She quickly swallowed the food she was chewing and wished she could kill her dazed self: "Chen, Chen Wu, hello."
However, she said that the female lead didn't look like someone who would squeeze in with a group of people to get food.
The main problem is that I can't imagine that scene.
Because she was eating and speaking too quickly, Ning Wanwan's words were a little unclear, but Shen Wu heard them clearly.
"No rush, you eat yours," Shen Wu said, looking at Ning Wanwan's somewhat uneasy and bewildered expression.
"I just saw you and wanted to say hello."
Ning Wanwan glanced at the people at the cafeteria entrance who were clearly waiting for Shen Wu.
No, no, why should I greet her? There's absolutely no need!
However, to everyone's relief, Shen Wu's position blocked the view of those people looking over from afar, preventing Ning Wanwan from feeling too suffocated.
"Is there something you need to say hello...?" she asked timidly in a low voice.
Ning Wanwan clearly didn't want to have much interaction with her. Shen Wu paused slightly, but her smile remained gentle and warm.
"Um—I was going to ask you your name, classmate."
Ning Wanwan waited a moment, and seeing that Shen Wu didn't continue, she cautiously followed up with a question.
"And now?"
Shen Wu turned her head slightly, looking at Ning Wanwan's hidden expression of resistance.
"Right now, I feel it would be better to ask next time."
Confusion appeared in Ning Wanwan's eyes.
Why next time?
However, Ning Wanwan really didn't want to say it right now, mainly because she couldn't understand why the female lead wanted to know her name.
This scene wasn't in the story.
Just as Ning Wanwan was thinking this, and feeling a little embarrassed that she might have been too impolite, someone suddenly gently pressed her head.
Ning Wanwan hadn't put the spoon down yet, and with her fingers still slightly cold and heavy, she looked up in a daze.
“Classmate Chen Wu…”
"Your hair is still sticking up a bit." Shen Wu smiled.
Ning Wanwan subconsciously explained her hair, "It seems really hard to press down, it's not usually like this..."
"She's quite cute." Shen Wu withdrew her hand, winked at her, and said in a soft and relaxed voice, "So I couldn't help but touch her a little just now, I'm sorry."
"No, it's okay."
Does that count as being praised?
Ning Wanwan's body was a little tense, but Shen Wu's gentle and kind attitude eased her anxiety a little.
Even when faced with a conversation from such a gentle and elegant beauty, Ning Wanwan was still more concerned about her meal.
It's getting cold, sob sob.
And I really don't know what to say next! So awkward, so awkward, so awkward.
As if she could hear her thoughts, Chen Wu stood up at this moment, stopping just in time to prevent the atmosphere from falling into silence and awkwardness.
"I'm leaving now, classmate. I hope to know your name next time."
Don't rush. Shen Wu smiled and thought, using all her strength to calm her racing heart and avoid being noticed by "He".
Upon hearing Shen Wu's friendly goodbye, Ning Wanwan, who was holding a spoon, subconsciously responded with a sound, then quickly shut her mouth.
There could never be a next time! They were just being polite!
Even after Shen Wu left, Ning Wanwan could still see the people waiting for her at the door immediately crowding around her and hear their indistinct conversations.
"Goddess Shen, are you going to say hello to someone you know?"
"No..."
As the distance increased, Ning Wanwan no longer heard what was said after that.
But it's easy to guess that he was probably just a classmate I'd only met twice.
Ning Wanwan continued to focus on eating, no longer thinking too much, while the system seemed somewhat hesitant.
Something feels off...
Something's not right." Ning Wanwan slowed her eating. "What's wrong?"
[Aren't all these female leads, male supporting characters, and villains just too eager to talk to you?]
[In the main story, you, as a cannon fodder character, barely have any screen time; the only significant detail is your tragic death at the end.]
Ning Wanwan felt the food in her mouth wasn't very appetizing anymore: "We're eating, don't talk about those tragic deaths..."
Otherwise, just thinking about those bloody descriptions makes me feel phantom limb pain and I can't even eat.
The system continued to ponder, when suddenly it thought of something.
Could it be that your "love at first sight" aura is working its magic?
