Chapter 109: The One He Really Liked Was Bai Shanshan!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Bai Shanshan was utterly dumbfounded.
She stood on the spot, stunned.
All her other classmates were astonished too. The females gathered together and privately pointed fingers at her, while the male students were more direct, shouting out loud.
“Bai Shanshan? You’re Bai Shanshan? That’s impossible…”
“Isn’t Bai Shanshan the most beautiful girl in the school? How could she be this fatty?”
“My god, why has Bai Shanshan become so fat?”
“Why has the most beautiful girl in the school become like this?”
“Classmate? Did you enter the wrong room? You aren’t that Bai Shanshan we know, right?”
“…”
Bai Shanshan was still familiar with these classmates’ faces. Right now, their discussions and pointings caused her mind to instantly blank out.
She felt a little lightheaded as if all the scenes that were taking place before her eyes were crushing down on her. She felt giddy and was staggering a little.
It was as if all the air in the surroundings were sucked away, or as though she had fallen into water. She was unable to breathe normally, and all the oxygen in her lungs was being siphoned away slowly…
Just as she felt like she was about to drown, a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist. “Why does your complexion look so bad?”
The clear voice reached her ears and then it felt as if everything in front of her was slowly returning to normal. When her eyes finally regained focus, she saw that this person was Chu Cimo!
Bai Shanshan was given a fright and abruptly backed off once again.
Yan Zijing smiled and said, “She’s just agitated from seeing all her classmates from the past. Shanshan, hurry up and breathe.”
She pinched Bai Shanshan’s arm, then smiled and explained, “Because Shanshan is too fat, she has some respiratory problems. It’s fine. She just can’t be too agitated.”
Too fat… so much so that she was having problems with her body.
The moment this was said, all the classmates present started mumbling again.
“My god, what on earth has she been through?”
“How can a girl let herself become this fat within a few years?”
Someone also asked with good intention, “Shanshan, are you sick?”
Miss Shen had said that she was sick. However, when Miss Shen said this, it was with an affirmative tone and there was no pity in her eyes. On the other hand, at this moment, the eyes of the female classmate who had asked this question were filled with pity.
Yan Zijing sighed. “She’s not sick. She has just gotten fat. You guys won’t despise Shanshan, would you?”
“Why would we…”
“What a joke. Everyone has changed over the years…”
However, there was someone who couldn’t help but scold, “Bai Shanshan, what happened to you? Aren’t you being too undisciplined about eating? How can you become this fat? This isn’t good for your body… You should try to lose some weight!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Shanshan’s face instantly flushed up and she said softly, “I… I’m trying to…”
She looked like she was about to cry.
On the other hand, Yan Zijing only observed Chu Cimo.
He was staring at Bai Shanshan’s changing expressions.
Rich second-generation heirs like him would only look at other people’s appearances, right?
Therefore, Chu Cimo must despise Bai Shanshan now…
Yan Zijing was just thinking this when Chu Cimo turned and scolded the ex-classmate who said this. “Did she grow fat from eating your family’s food? Why are you such a busybody? Moreover, a beautiful woman is still beautiful when they become fat. Unlike you, dark and ugly…”
The girl who was lecturing Bai Shanshan earlier instantly flushed. “Chu Cimo, you’ve gone overboard!”
“I’ve gone overboard? You’re saying that I’ve gone overboard just because I’ve spoken the truth?
“…”
The girl’s eyes were filled with tears and she dashed out of the door.
Chu Cimo sneered. “People like her always like to shoot their mouths off!”
His words caused everyone else present to not dare to mock Bai Shanshan anymore.
After Chu Cimo was done, he looked toward Bai Shanshan, saying with a bright smile, “Why did you run when you saw me at the underground car park earlier? You changed so I didn’t recognize you, but can’t you recognize me? Come, come, sit beside me. It has been so long since we last met. Old classmates like us should reminisce and catch up. It has been very long since I last heard you speak…”
Chu Cimo pulled Bai Shanshan to the seat next to him. He then launched a kick at the guy who was seated there as he said, “Move.”
That person immediately picked up his bowl and went off to an empty seat.
Chu Cimo had Bai Shanshan sit down. He then smiled as he looked at her. “How have you been all these years? Every time I sent you a WeChat message, you’d ignore me. What were you busy with?”
Yan Zijing. “???”
She frowned, not expecting that this would happen.
She knew of this young master from the Chu Family. He liked beautiful women and had countless girlfriends over the years. He was a player, so how could he be interested in a fatty?
Moreover, he looked like he didn’t despise her at all…
Yan Zijing bit her lips.
Just then, someone who had been staring at her for a very long time suddenly asked, “Yan Zijing? You’re Swallow, right?”
Yan Zijing turned and saw someone standing up excitedly. “I’m your fan! Oh, right! Brother Mo is also your fan! He listens to every song you sing!”
After saying that, the person looked at Chu Cimo. “Bro Mo, look who this is! It’s Yan Zijing!”
Chu Cimo was originally fawning over Bai Shanshan. But when he heard this, he suddenly looked toward the door. “Yan Zijing?”
He shot up to his feet and looked at Yan Zijing with gleaming eyes!
“Hurry, hurry! Come sit down next to me!”
Chu Cimo then chased away the other person sitting on his other side and invited Yan Zijing over.
Yan Zijing. “?”
She walked over, feeling a little surprised as she took a seat next to Chu Cimo.
Chu Cimo’s smile became even gentler. “I’ve always liked your songs. I’m your loyal fan! I didn’t expect to see you in person. Miss Yan, do you eat prawns? Shall I peel some for you?”
In an instant, he fell in love with someone else again.
Chu Cimo had gotten into many relationships over the years.
However, there was something that no one knew. Amongst all the people he had been in a relationship with, regardless if they were beautiful, ugly, fat, or skinny, all of them had one common trait. That was, their voices resembled…
There was another thing that no one knew. The duration in which he was in a relationship with those people would generally not exceed a month. He hadn’t even had any physical contact with them. He only liked them for their voice.
In the second year of junior high, he was once locked up in his school’s broadcasting room. It was pitch-black in there.
Back then, he was claustrophobic and in an extreme state of panic.
Even when he called to ask for help, it would be at least half an hour before someone could come and save him.
And during this time, he had trouble breathing and felt like he wasn’t going to make it. But then, he suddenly heard someone singing outside.
The voice was beautiful and clear, like that of a skylark. It made one feel warmth and accompaniment.
Ever since then, he couldn’t forget that voice.
However, even after searching for many years, he hadn’t been able to find out who that girl was.
Later on, he wooed Bai Shanshan because her voice resembled that singing voice a lot…
Right now, he was looking at the 95 kilograms Bai Shanshan with a ‘filter’ on his eyes. That was why he found her adorable and beautiful…
When he heard Yan Zijing’s singing voice, he thought that he had found the girl he was looking for. However, after some investigations, he found out that Yan Zijing wasn’t at their school that day. Therefore, she wasn’t the one.
Despite this, Chu Cimo was still fawning over Yan Zijing. After peeling prawns for her, he smiled and said, “We have a KTV in our room. Miss Yan, why don’t you sing a song for us?”
Yan Zijing. “!!”
Her expression seemed a little panicky and she suddenly let out a cough. “I’m sorry, Mr. Chu. I’m having some problems with my voice, and I can’t sing these few days. Why not let Shanshan sing a song for you? She has the greatest resemblance in imitating my voice!”
“Alright, alright!”
Everyone looked toward Bai Shanshan. Before she could say anything, someone stuffed a microphone into her hand.
