Chapter 2: Strange Star with Special Effects 3
“Ding Ling Ling——”
“Ding Ling Ling——”
…
The annoying alarm clock rang countless times in the silent room like a magic sound. I rolled around painfully several times on the pink princess bed wrapped in soft quilt before I opened my eyes with difficulty.
"Good morning, beautiful and lovely Miss Bai Jieni!"
The soft sunshine in the early morning brought me full of energy, and all the unpleasant experiences of the previous day were left far behind.
It’s not my style to back down when faced with difficulties. A new day has arrived, Bai Jie Ni, you have to keep going!
I got up as fast as I could.
Twenty minutes later, I nodded with satisfaction at myself in the mirror.
The girl in the mirror has beautiful long straight black hair, a delicate oval face, big round eyes, clear and bright pupils, curved eyebrows, long eyelashes, fair and flawless skin, and thin lips.
I stretched out my hand, adjusted my navy blue freshman uniform and the school badge on my chest, and then waved my hand vigorously: "Perfect! Let's go!"
Today is the opening ceremony of the Eli Academy, I must take this opportunity to change everyone's bad impression of me. As for that guy Norn, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, so I will put my feud with him aside for the time being!
While fantasizing about ending my current isolated life, I happily walked into the school gate.
But three seconds later—
"Hey! Are you Bai Jie Ni?"
Suddenly, a short girl with a round mushroom head rushed to me like a cannonball and asked me a question in a very loud voice that was extremely disproportionate to her body.
Ah... Has such an alternative way of greeting become popular these days?
I was a little surprised, and I felt like something was wrong. But because I wanted to build good relationships with my classmates, I tried to ignore the impolite attitude of the girl in front of me and nodded politely: "Yes, I'm Bai Jie Ni. May I ask you..."
"Ha! So it's really you!" Unexpectedly, the girl didn't even wait for me to finish. She showed a look of extreme disgust on her face and yelled a long string of words, "I'm telling you, don't think that you can attract the attention of Senior Norn just because you are pretty! None of us will support you, humph!"
After saying that, she glared at me fiercely with a look as if she held a knife in her eyes, then put her hands on her hips and left angrily.
What's going on? Are there still posts about me on the school forum? Is that incident still not over?
As it turned out, my inference was absolutely correct.
Because next, I was almost drowned by the saliva of the students watching me.
"Huh? Did you see that? The one who just walked over was Bai Jie Ni. She's really beautiful!"
"Humph! What's the use of being pretty? All the girls who try to get close to Senior Norn are our enemies!"
"Yes, yes! And her methods are really too low-class! Senior Norn is the last single person in the study group, we must protect him!"
"Yes! We must form a united front, defeat Bai Jieni, and protect Senior Norn!"
…
“Crack—”
A dead branch that had not been swept away died at my feet.
Come on! That stinky pervert, wandering around in a black robe in the middle of the night, and liking to eat chili peppers, I really have no interest in him at all, I swear on my favorite alien!
Amidst countless cold stares, I fled all the way to the classroom in panic. Before I could even sit down, I heard the class monitor announce that the opening ceremony was about to begin and all students had to attend.
I walked out of the classroom weakly following my classmates. I had no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery in the school. All I could hear was everyone's speculation about my relationship with Norn. The grand opening ceremony ended in my absent-mindedness. Apart from seeing the legendary principal from afar, the thing I expected in the morning to change the impression of my classmates did not happen at all.
What's more strange is that the school didn't even explain the previous "vampire" incident. The security guard had clearly seen the true face of the so-called "vampire" last night, so why didn't they explain it to everyone?
I shook my head. It was none of my business. Why should I worry about it? As long as I didn't have anything to do with Norn in the future, these rumors would disappear sooner or later. However, before I took two steps, I heard whispers from the side, and there were always strange eyes looking at me.
“Buzz buzz buzz…”
The sound like the buzzing of bees kept circling in my ears. I couldn't help but open my mouth to explain myself for the hundred and first time, but as soon as the words came to my mouth, I heard a scream in my ears -
"Oh my god! It's the seniors from the study group!"
Suddenly, there was a huge wave of cheers in front of us. The next moment, it seemed that all the girls around went crazy. They were like those irrational star-chasers reported on TV, rushing in one direction with shining eyes.
Ah...how exaggerated!
My eyes widened. Isn't this the legendary Ailey College where only the elite can get in? Why do I see a bunch of screaming and madcap girls?
Forget about being a fangirl, but can you put me down as I am being dragged forward involuntarily?
I struggled hard, but the power of these crazy fans was so strong that I couldn't help but run after them.
Hey! I have no interest in any study group! An organization with people like Norn can't be a good thing. I don't want to see them!
Well... the next second, all my complaints were stuck in my throat. With the advantage of being a few centimeters taller than the average girl, I finally saw the object of everyone's obsession.
In the bright sunshine of the early morning, the few people walking over were like God's favorites. They seemed to have gathered all the beauty in the world: the black-haired god, the wine-red-haired sun god, the sunny handsome guy with honey-gold hair, and...
There is another person I don’t want to mention, so let’s ignore him for now.
Next to this group of handsome guys, there were three girls. The one holding the arm of "Tian Shen" was Xiang Qian, a former senior whom I had met before. She was still full of energy.
Next to the "Sun God" is a tall beauty with long flaxen curly hair, a delicate face and a gentle temperament, forming a strangely harmonious picture with the burgundy-haired senior next to her.
There was also a quiet senior schoolmate who was holding hands with the sunny and handsome boy. She seemed to be not used to the feeling of being watched by so many people and kept her head slightly lowered all the way.
at last……
Although I really hate the last one, I have to admit that Norn is no less outstanding than them in terms of appearance. They have the same outstanding looks, the elegance of the God of Heaven, the passion of the God of Sun, the cuteness of the Sunshine Handsome Guy, and the mystery of Norn...
Among the seven people, only Norn was alone, which aroused the crazy genes in the blood of the surrounding girls. They wished they could fill the empty seat next to him immediately and accept everyone's pursuit with him.
"Senior Norn, look here! We love you so much!"
"Senior Hana Chiba is so handsome! I like this type the most!"
"Senior Lucifer is still the most handsome. I will faint just by looking at him!"
"When it comes to being handsome, who can compare to our senior Tian Yifeng! I can't take it anymore, I'm going to faint too!"
…
Amid the constant exclamations of "I'm about to faint", I don't know if it was because of the words "Look here", but Norn, who exuded the aura of "Keep Away", actually glanced over here extremely coldly, which resulted in a group of girls screaming with happiness, and some of them even fell down with excitement.
Am I really going to faint? I was so scared that I wanted to step back quickly, but I forgot that there were people around me. The next second, I didn’t know what happened. It seemed that I tripped over someone’s foot and lost my balance. Then everyone within two meters around me fell down one after another like bonomelettes.
"Ah! Who stepped on my foot!"
"Hey! Stop pulling my clothes!"
"Ouch! You hurt my arm!"
…
In the chaos, the girls no longer cared about maintaining their image in front of their male gods and lay on the ground in various postures.
And at the moment before I fell to the ground, I seemed to feel a lightness on my neck, and something slipped down from my clothes.
"Oh! My lucky star!"
I let out a shrill scream and tried to get up from the ground in a panic. But unfortunately, because the space was too small and the girl on my left was still pressing on me, my efforts failed.
Just as I was trying to struggle with her arm, everyone seemed to have suddenly pressed the mute button and the whole space was silent.
"you again!"
Suddenly, a sound of gnashing teeth rang out above my head. I was frightened by the sound just as I moved the girl's arm away, and fell back to the ground with a "smack".
Sure enough, nothing good happens every time I meet Norn.
I lay prone on the ground, raised my head in an extremely humiliating posture and glared at him angrily, only to see that his eyes were wider than mine, and filled with emotions such as disdain and disgust, as if seeing me was something that made him very unhappy.
Humph! It just so happens that I see that you are also unhappy!
I rolled my eyes, and then suddenly out of the corner of my eye, I saw a shiny object.
It’s a sapphire blue like the clearest sea water, in the shape of the brightest stars in the dark night, and has a red string that I specially picked out at a jewelry store.
My lucky star!
But how did it end up in Norn's hands?
He held it on his finger like trash, not only far away from his body, but also with an expression that said he might throw it away at any moment.
No!
In an instant, my whole body was filled with endless strength and I quickly got up from the ground.
What was faster than me was the group of girls who were just screaming in pain. They quickly got up as if they had intermittent amnesia, and immediately put on an expression as if nothing had happened. Each of them made all kinds of sweet noises in an extremely ladylike manner.
"Hello, Senior Norn, I'm Lily from Class 2, Grade 1. Nice to meet you!"
"Senior Norn, I brought a delicious lunch box today. Can I invite you to have lunch with me?"
"Senior Norn, this is the lucky bracelet I made by myself. Would you please accept it?"
…
Norn seemed to have not heard anything of the conversation. His big blue eyes emitted cold rays of light, and his whole body seemed to be releasing cold air like an air conditioner, which frightened the girls who were trying hard to attract his attention and made their voices become smaller and smaller until they could no longer be heard.
In the deathly silence, my whole body was burning with flames, and I came to his side like the wind.
"Give me back my lucky star!"
I stretched out my hand to grab the thing in his hand, but before I could touch it, my vision blurred and a meteor-like object hit my forehead. I reached out to catch it reflexively, and the cold and familiar touch reminded me what it was.
"Take your shit and get the hell out of Avery Academy!"
Before I could react, a sound as if carrying tens of thousands of pounds of gunpowder exploded rapidly in my ears. I raised my head and saw the face in front of me as black as the bottom of a pot, and there was a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
If anger could take form, I think I would have been burned to ashes.
This guy! He...he actually threw my lucky star at me as a weapon!
My lucky star is not only an ornament, but also a treasure that is related to the harmony and stability of my whole family. As for the reason... I will talk about it later! In short, I will never allow anyone to despise or insult it!
"Asshole!" I held my lucky star tightly and cursed with all my strength, "You are the bastard! You should get out of Ailey College! Who allowed you to touch my lucky star! Apologize to me!"
I glared at him angrily. I couldn't believe that there were such hateful people in the world.
But, the worse thing is yet to come.
What was unexpected was that after I yelled, the man who didn't even feel the slightest bit of guilt actually turned even darker, the cold light in his eyes was almost frozen into ice, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura from the inside out. If you listened carefully, you could even hear the sound of his teeth grinding.
Huh? He was clearly in the wrong, so why is he angrier than me?
In order not to lose to him, I had to raise my head higher and try to make my eyes look murderous.
Who is afraid of whom!
"I never apologize to anyone, especially to..." He paused and glanced at my face with disdain, "Disgusting people!"
Someone who is annoying?
The raging rage instantly burned away the last of my sanity, and I sneered sarcastically at the Norn who was still holding his head high , thinking how noble he was.
"I hate you. How can you be any better? You were the defeated enemy I caught yesterday. You are a monster who ate chili peppers in the middle of the night. You are regarded as..."
“Shut up!” Before I could finish my words, the person in front of me jumped up from the ground as if he had been stepped on a sore spot, and waved his fist fiercely in front of my eyes, “How dare you say bad things about La Jiao! Don’t think I don’t dare to hit a girl. If you provoke me again, I will beat you up!”
"Humph! Do you think I'm afraid of you? Come and bite me if you dare, or I'll beat you down!"
I raised my neck, ready to fight him to the end.
As a result, the next second, the rest of my words were completely stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them anymore.
Because, Norn, who was arguing with me just now, actually bit me after I told him to bite me...
Ah! It's not biting me, it's biting the chili pepper!
He actually took out a handful of bright red peppers from his pocket and stuffed them all into his mouth.
“Crack, crack—”
A creepy chewing sound was heard, and I stared in amazement at Norn staring at me while biting those horrifying peppers with his snow-white teeth. It looked like he was really eating my flesh.
I shuddered all over and a chill spread through my heart.
Perverts are indeed perverts, even their sense of taste is different from that of normal people.
Woo woo, I want to run away, what should I do?
"Oh my god! What happened to Senior Norn?"
A girl's surprised voice sounded behind me.
"What could have happened? He must have been mad at Bai Jie Ni. Senior is so pitiful. I really want to rush over and hug him!"
"Me too, me too. I never thought that you can eat chili peppers so handsomely. You are so charming!"
…
I nearly fell to the ground.
Hey! Fangirls, is your criterion for judging based on appearance?
Just when my heart was about to bleed, the pervert whom I classified as "abnormal" had finished eating the chili peppers at an abnormal speed, then gave me a look that said "just wait for me" and walked away amid the admiring gazes of the crowd of crazy fans.
Gone, gone, gone...
I repeated it three times in my mind, but still couldn't believe this dramatic ending.
Weren't they arguing? Why did he eat a handful of chili peppers and walk away in the middle of the argument? Did the chili peppers calm him?
On the other side, the study group members who had just been completely ignored by me finally came over from not far away. Although everyone seemed to have forgotten them because of the farce of a large group of people falling down and the confrontation between Norn and me afterwards, there are some people in this world who are born to shine. Even if they are temporarily covered up, when they appear, they will still get everyone's attention at the first time.
Those dull fans came back to life instantly.
However, amidst the sudden screams, the god-like black-haired boy who first walked up to me gave me a meaningful look, and uttered two words faintly from his red lips -
"Take care of yourself!"
Then he left without looking back.
"Junior sister Jenny, you...ah! Take care of yourself!" Senior sister Qian Qian, who came over, gave her a sympathetic look and went to catch up with the boy in front.
Then, one, two, three, four...
The four people behind me came over one by one. Each of them had an excitement expression on their face after watching a good show, but their eyes could not hide their sympathy. In the end, they said nothing and slowly passed by me.
After a series of unexpected events, I was completely stunned and confused.
I didn't check the calendar before going out today, so I'm so unlucky, right?
What's even more unfortunate is that behind them, in an inconspicuous place, I suddenly saw a familiar figure.
A serious-looking girl with a ponytail was looking at me coldly, then she lowered her head and wrote something in a familiar little notebook.
"Oh my god! The school bell has rung for a long time, why are we still here? Run!"
"Huh? I was so focused on looking at the seniors that I didn't hear you! Wait for me!"
"Oh no! Oh no! The next period is the homeroom teacher's class. We are doomed!"
…
Noisy footsteps accompanied by a series of screams rang out, and in the blink of an eye, everyone ran away, leaving only me and Yao Shanshan who was still concentrating on memorizing.
In an instant, I felt the temperature dropped several degrees.
It's over! My good days are completely over!
I held my lucky star in my hand, and suddenly I fell into a huge panic. My new life at Ailey College seemed to be even worse!
