While Bai Yiyi was still in a daze, someone suddenly ran over to talk to her.
"Yiyi, look at this photo." Fu Qiqi raised her phone in front of Bai Yiyi's eyes.
She was Bai Yiyi's deskmate and also her number one follower.
Bai Yiyi casually glanced at it at first, then immediately frowned and stared at the photo. The person in the photo was none other than the person everyone was talking about, Bai Ning.
"Let me tell you, Yiyi, this girl is a new transfer student in the advanced class. Many people are talking about her. This is a photo that someone sent me. She looks very beautiful!" Fu Qiqi said excitedly. She was usually someone who liked to gossip and would pay attention to everything that was going on in the school.
Hearing Fu Qiqi's words, Bai Yiyi's expression darkened.
From the first time she had met Bai Ning, she knew that her face would attract attention, but she didn't expect it to happen on campus, right beside her.
She was angry and confused. She had heard that Bai Ning was an ordinary person with low self-esteem and was even a little annoying.
Moreover, she had seen photos of her. Although she wasn't ugly, she had a bad temperament, poor fashion sense, and looked rustic and petty. Now, it was completely different. What had happened?
In order to maintain her image, Bai Yiyi could only temporarily suppress the anger and confusion in her heart. She forced a smile and said, "She's indeed a pretty girl."
When Fu Qiqi heard this, she realized how stupid she had been. As the number one fan and follower of the school belle, how could she praise another girl for being beautiful in front of her?
This was a form of disrespect to the school belle!
With this in mind, Fu Qiqi quickly locked her phone screen and put it aside. She smiled and said, "Aiyo, let's not talk about her. No matter how pretty the transfer student is, she can't compare to our Yiyi. Our Yiyi is the school's most beautiful girl, recognized by the entire school. You're also a star. She's just an ordinary student from God knows where. How can she compare to you?"
Bai Yiyi's mood eased a little when she heard these flattering words. She thought for a few seconds and pretended to complain, "Don't say that. Although Bai Ning transferred here from a small county, she's indeed very beautiful."
"So she's a transfer from the countryside, eh? Yiyi, how do you know her name? Did you know her from before?" Fu Qiqi hurriedly asked, as if she had caught on to some important gossip.
Bai Yiyi furrowed her brows and blinked her eyes in panic. As if she knew she had said something wrong, she pretended to be conflicted for a while before saying in a low voice, "Aiya, Qiqi, don't tell anyone else. I knew about her before she transferred here. She's our adopted daughter from the countryside."
"Ah? So that's who she is, the fake heiress who has been stealing your identity for many years!" Fu Qiqi said. Her eyes widened in surprise, and her voice was much louder than usual.
There had been rumors about this in the school for a long time. It was said that the school belle's life was as dramatic as a TV drama. After living for more than ten years, she realized that she was not the child of her parents, but was wrongly brought home. Her biological parents were rich, and they let a fake heiress live her life for more than ten years.
"Aiya, Qiqi, you should keep your voice down. What if someone hears you?" Bai Yiyi said, pretending to be angry.
Fu Qiqi pouted and said disdainfully, "What's wrong with that, Yiyi? I'm telling the truth. She stole your beautiful life, and you suffered for so many years. She clearly owes you, so why can't we talk about this? I'm taking back all the compliments I've given her!"
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi sighed and lowered her eyes, as if she was upset about something. However, there was a trace of pride in her eyes. Soon, she hid her expression and said with a serious look, "No matter what, Qiqi, don't tell anyone about this. This is the hospital's mistake. Bai Ning is also a victim."
"Yiyi, aren't you a victim too?" Fu Qiqi said indignantly, clearly not intending to listen to Bai Yiyi's words.
She put her hands on Bai Yiyi's shoulders and said in a serious tone, "Yiyi, you're good at everything, but you're too kind. You'll be easily bullied like this!"
"Don't worry, Qiqi. Bai Ning isn't that kind of person." Bai Yiyi said. She seemed to be speaking up for Bai Ning.
"Yiyi, don't bother about this matter. If I catch her red-handed, I'll definitely teach her a lesson!" Fu Qiqi said through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, Bai Yiyi sneakily raised the corners of her mouth and stopped talking.
