Chapter 51

Jiang Tingzhou sent Su Meng all the way to the door of Class 5, just as he promised Granny Zhang. Many people in the classroom saw them. Su Meng arrived not too early so the classrooms were almost full. She picked an empty seat next to a girl and sat down. As soon as she sat down, the girl with an apple face next to her leaned her head, “Hey, is the guy who dropped you here from our school? He looks so handsome.”

The girl in front of her also turned her head with interest, “Hey, he looked a bit older than us, is he our senior?”

In a new environment, Su Meng was a little uncomfortable for a while. But the girls around her were so lively and cheerful, which made it a lot easier. She smiled, and replied, “Yes, he is already in the third year of high school.”

When Su Meng spoke, the two girls exclaimed, “Hey, your voice is cute, right?”

“Yes, your voice is so nice. What’s your name?”

“Su Meng.”

The girl with the apple face immediately introduced herself and said, “I am Zhang Xiaoya.”

“My name was Li Youqing.” The two girls were extroverted. When rearranging seats according to their height, Su Meng got to be at the same desk as Li Youqing. Zhang Xiaoya was separated from them by a row, but wasn’t far from her. Li Youqing had a melon-seed face, big eyes and a ponytail. She looked youthful and lively. Su Meng had a rough chat with her before she found out that the girl was obsessed about makeup. She started to help make-up cosplayers in the comic show in her free time since junior high school. Sometimes when there were no cosplayers for some reason, she herself would put on make-up.

Under the gaze of the class teacher, Li Youqing cautiously approached Su Meng’s ear and asked, “Do you want to join our animation club?”

Su Meng shook her head indicating that she won’t join. Although Li Youqing was a little disappointed, she wasn’t overwhelmed about it. The first day in the new school passed quickly, and the second day was just formal classes. Su Meng took the time to learn piano with Grandma Zhang. Once the school started the free time she got was almost zero. In addition to her homework, she had to play the piano for at least one hour a day.

But Su Meng liked that kind of enrichment, which made her feel that she was getting better every moment. Su Meng remembered the conversation with Grandma Zhang two days ago.

She said, “Mengmeng, I hope you can become confident.”

Su Meng was at a loss at that time, as she didn’t know why Grandma Zhang said that. She looked at her with an inquiring look. Grandma sighed slightly and pointed to her mask.

“I know that you are a sensitive child. It may have been difficult to adapt to an environment when you first arrived, but no matter what, I hope that you can become a confident person. Regardless of their appearance, confident girls are the most beautiful .”

Su Meng didn’t know how to react. She did lack self-confidence, and was sensitive and cowardly. But after rebirth, as she got the golden finger, she had confidence in her heart. Her mentality actually improved a lot than the past. She wasn’t as cowardly, and was no longer so afraid to get in contact with strangers.

But the mask had nothing to do with self-confidence. Grandma Zhang thought that she was sensitive because of her inferiority complex, so she was unwilling to remove her mask under the pretext of her face injury. Su Meng knew that Grandma Zhang misunderstood, but at that time, she couldn’t explain anything.

Her silence made Grandma Zhang think she was right. She sighed, touched Su Meng’s head, and said gently, “Let’s learn piano with me. Playing the piano will make your personality change subtly.”

Su Meng agreed, “Okay.”

As she thought of Grandma Zhang who was so gentle to her, Su Meng was guilty. But she didn’t dare and couldn’t tell the truth. She could only wait, but as the old couple Ling started to feel vague about her looks, she could only take off the mask.

Fortunately, the old couple Ling didn’t notice much difference about her, and she was already in the growing stage. It wasn’t impossible for her to grow and her face to change after a few months. Just as Su Meng studied hard in the new school, a rumor spread in the school. That rumor was first spread from the third year of high school, and slowly, even the students in the first and second year of high school heard it. The rumor spread to the point where everyone knew it. Su Meng was one of the last people to not know about that rumor.

Li Youqing, her deskmate, told her about it. As soon as she arrived in the classroom in the morning, Li Youqing approached her and said mysteriously, “Did you know? Our school has a transfer student named Jiang Tingzhou.”

Su Meng’s heart jumped when she heard the name.
