Xia Heru's hand itched to slap both Han Shuya and Yan Shu, if not punch them. The last thing she wanted was to become a shadow again.
When the Campus Beauty contest began, she too sent a photo to participate, even before Han Shuya herself. At that time, there weren't that many entries yet, so she received a large portion of the initial votes. She couldn't hide her happiness on receiving that many votes.
Her friends Li Shanshan, Lin Chao, and Ji Mengran all praised her, saying that she was the only beauty on the campus. And that's why Xia Heru liked to keep them around; because she loved to have her ego massaged like that.
Xia Heru is indeed beautiful, but she's also scheming, evil, and vicious, all of which overshadowed her beauty. So when Han Shuya uploaded her photo, she quickly surpassed Xia Heru's votes.
