The corridor was so quiet that they could hear each other breathe.
When Irene first transferred here, she always wore a mask due to a facial injury. Even while she was eating, she would be seated at a corner with He Yang. Thus, no one would've thought that she had an appearance which would far exceed a celebrity's.
Based on everyone's knowledge and experience, there were many with beautiful eyes, but rarely was there anyone who would look good upon taking off their masks.
So how could Irene be an exception?
Furthermore, there was another reason as to why E Xiaoxia was very certain that Irene was either ugly or average looking-
It was because Zhao Yuan had never refuted her when she said this!
Every time, Zhao Yuan would just furrow her brows and reprimand her softly, "Don't talk about Irene like that."
This sentence could be understood in two ways. One: 'You're wrong. Irene is actually very beautiful.', and two: 'Irene already feels inferior due to the injury on her face and appearance, so you shouldn't talk about her like this. She'll feel worse if she hears it.'
Obviously, a normal person would think of the latter.
Moreover E Xiaoxia.
Thus, for the past year, E Xiaoxia held the assumption that Irene was not only ugly, but she also liked to steal Zhao Yuan's things; that she was bad in her studies and was very thick-skinned.
It was only at this moment when E Xiaoxia understood the reason why Shen Liyao would ignore every other girl except for Irene.
Why despite Irene's pursuit, he would only put up a cold farce instead of pushing her away like how he did with herself as well as countless other girls.
Why whenever she spoke of Irene's appearance, Zhao Yuning would ask her to take a look at herself in the mirror first- Turns out, Zhao Yuning meant what he said literally!
It was because Irene was special. She was so gorgeous that no one could compare to her.
Her actions of riling people up and calling Irene ugly in front of so many people was as if she was a clown who had never looked at her own reflection before.
E Xiaoxia went deathly pale. She suddenly felt as if she had become the subject of a joke!

A good majority of people were there because they were curious upon seeing how the corridor outside the International Class was filled with people. They did not know what was actually going on.
Someone couldn't help but to exclaim, "This is the most beautiful girl in your school? She is definitely worthy of the name. She's so pretty!"
The person beside him came back to his senses and replied, "It's not her. She's currently ranked 2nd in the contest."
"Oh my God! If she's in 2nd place, then the one in 1st place must be some other-worldly beauty. Who is she?"
Someone in the crowd pointed to Zhao Yuan. "Over there. I think she came here too."
"..." The one who asked for the person in 1st place went quiet immediately.
They couldn't help but to ask in a small voice, "-Just this?"
A lot of people's attention turned to focus on Zhao Yuan.
She was pretty, but between her pure and innocent delicateness and Irene's bewitching beauty, she would definitely pale in comparison.
The color on Zhao Yuan's lips was gradually fading.
She almost couldn't maintain her expression as she desperately wanted to hit E Xiaoxia.
