Chapter 0 wedge
He was wearing elegant black-framed glasses, with his fine black hair brushing across his forehead. Soft light shone from behind him, as refreshing as a breeze on a summer day.
"Senior An, this... this is a small gift from me. Would you accept it?"
I raised the pink envelope and heart-shaped chocolate in my hands above my head, my face flushed, I stammered, and I didn't dare to look at the tall and handsome man in front of me.
That’s right, this is a confession! And the person I’m confessing to is Senior An Zhesi, whom I’ve had a crush on for two years. Today is May 20th, International Confession Day, and it’s also Ming Cha Cha’s last chance… God, please bless me to make my confession a success!
Senior An...Senior An smiled at me! He was so handsome, and my heart was beating so fast !
"Chacha, I'm sorry. Although you are a good girl, I like elegant girls like your cousin!"
Wha…what?
a bolt from the blue!
Here it comes again! The curse in my Ming Cha Cha's fate!
I felt as if I was struck by a bolt of lightning and fell to the ground. Dark clouds instantly covered my sky. As I watched Senior An gracefully turn around and slowly walk away, I didn't even have the courage to reach out to keep him!
It has been like this since I was a child. Everyone only has eyes for Meixiang. Whether I am attending an event or a parent-teacher meeting, she is always the focus of everyone's attention. Even if I got the first place in the school, everyone would only say that I am "Meixiang's cousin." As long as she is around, no one will ever even look at me.
Now…now even Senior Anzhesi said to me: “I like elegant girls like your cousin!”
Damn girl... Woohoo, I'm really sad.
"Chacha, you haven't filled out your application form yet?"
The handsome face of my classmate Liangwu next to me enlarged in front of my eyes, but my brain turned into a mess. It seemed as if he was a hundred million light years away from me when he spoke.
"Don't worry! Cha Cha ranked first in the national entrance exam last year! She will definitely be admitted to any school she wants!"
A girl who looked like a stranger interrupted me, her tone full of envy, "Ah! She is a classmate of ours, but she usually ignores me!"
"That's right, even if it's the legendary Jono High School that only accepts one special student every year, Chacha can still give it a try! After all, even I, the teacher, have never seen a student better than her!"
How come even the teacher has joined in the fun? Can’t you see that I’m very sad now and really need a quiet atmosphere?
I stood up suddenly, and the chair behind me fell to the ground with a "whoosh". In everyone's surprised eyes, I strode onto the podium, staring with wide eyes, searching through the pile of school introductions for the school that was farthest from home and required accommodation.
As long as I leave Meixiang, I will no longer be the ugly duckling in everyone's eyes!
Honoka Girls' Academy...the choice of a noble lady...no, no , this is too close, Mika will come over to see me at any time!
Hokubu Academy... Yeah, it's quite far away, but unfortunately it's a boys' school...
Huh? Jono High School... is on a remote island? Across the sea from Reika City where I live? Most importantly... parents are not allowed to visit as they please?
This is it!
Ming Meixiang... just wait and see! I, Ming Cha Cha, will never live in your shadow forever!
