"What? Shen Jing, you applied for Chinese Arts as well?" The class monitor, while collecting the registration forms, exclaimed in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Boyue turned to look at Shen Jing. Shen Jing also chose Chinese painting?
Some classmates whispered to each other, "Could it be that Shen Jing saw Qiao Boyue's choice and decided to follow suit?"
"I've never heard of Shen Jing being skilled in Chinese painting. But Qiao Boyue excels in it. If Shen Jing signed up for a project with her, wouldn't she be asking for humiliation?"
Seeing the classmates going too far with their comments, the class monitor tapped the desk and said, "Alright, everyone, stop making baseless speculations. Shen Jing, don't mind them. Since you've chosen the project, give it your best. The classmates are just talking nonsense. Don't let it bother you."
Shen Jing responded with a nonchalant "Mm."
