tried to break free, but her hands were stuck.Gu Yichen stared intently at the ring on Su Ke Xin's finger, and suddenly, a mocking smile curled up at the corner of his mouth."Su Kexin, after all that...Zhou Shuangqing not only failed to recognize Xu Zui Ning, but also mistakenly thought that Ou Yang Chu was secretly involved with another woman. She was immediately filled with righteous indignation and her tone became somewhat aggressive.
... Xu Zui'ning looked helplessly, “...”
This misunderstanding is serious now.
Zhou Shuangqing angrily went up to demand an explanation from Ou Yangchu. Unexpectedly, the pretty girl beside Ou Yangchu proactively ran over and grabbed her arm.
"My dears, there's no need to be so excited! It's just me, Zui Ning."
"What are you talking about! How could you possibly be Zhuijing!" Zhou Shuangqing didn't even want to hear her speak, she blurted out a response without thinking. She was just about to shake off this girl, but suddenly realized something.
This voice, it really does sound like Xu Zui Ning!
She began to look seriously at the beautiful girl in front of her. Although the features of the person before her were completely different from those of Zui Ning, her black and white eyes that sparkled were exactly the same as she remembered. Could it be...
"Wait a moment." Zhou Shuangqing cried out in astonishment, hesitant to believe it but compelled to. "You... you're really Zui Ning"
Xu Zui Ning also understood that she could no longer hide her disguise from Zhou Shuang Qing. Besides, she didn't want to keep it a secret from this sincere and good friend of hers, so she took this opportunity to explain everything to her, speaking directly to the point.
"Yes, I am Xu Zui Ning. This is my true appearance now. Before this, I disguised myself to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Zhou Shuangqing was completely stunned.
She had noticed before that Xu Zui Ning deliberately wore heavy makeup, as if trying to conceal her features.
Not only that, she also found that Xu Zui'ning almost always wore makeup. Even when she returned to the dormitory, she wouldn't take it off until everyone else had gone to sleep and the lights were turned off. Then, she would sneakily get up alone and remove her makeup.
For so long Zhou Shuangqing and Xu Zui'ning lived in the same dormitory, but they had never seen Xu Zui'ning's completely barefaced appearance.
Zhou Shuangqing had always thought that Xu Zuiying was too insecure about her appearance, which is why she acted this way. After all, even after applying makeup, she was still called "ugliest monster" by others. She figured that Xu Zuiying might be trying to hide her true face and that's why she refused to show up without makeup.
However, I never expected that Xu Zui Ning would be this beautiful.
"What unnecessary trouble" Zhou Shuangqing asked, a little clueless. She really couldn't understand what kind of trouble Xu Zui could possibly be hiding that would make her paint her beautiful face into such a ghastly mess.
Xu Zhuining sighed helplessly and spoke directly again: "Shuangqing, take a good look at my face. Do you feel like you've seen it somewhere Have you ever seen this face before"
"I've never met her before…" Zhou Shuangqing instinctively denied it. After all, such a beautiful face would definitely leave a deep impression if she had seen it! But looking at the delicate features right in front of her, she felt something was off!
Under Xu Zui Ning's deliberate guidance, she started to feel that this face seemed familiar.
"Where have I seen you before" Zhou Shuangqing suddenly remembered a face, and later realized what it was, her little face turned pale with fright, she hesitated and stammered, "You... You look like that Xu Ning!"
That's right.
Zhou Shuangqing finally remembered, the beautiful girl in front of her had the same face as her idol, Xu Ning, the popular contestant from "Debut Now, Idol"!
It's just that Xu Zui Ning is wearing a very glamorous and enchanting makeup look right now, and she has changed her hairstyle and clothes. Even her diehard fan didn't recognize her at all.
"That's right." Xu Zui Ning smiled, raising her hand to smooth her curly hair behind her ear, then replied, "I am Xu Ning!"
Zhou Shuangqing only felt a little dizzy. In these few short minutes, the news she received was one after another, exploding, and for a while, she found it difficult to digest.
"You... how could you be Xu Ning... Xu Ning is a man, isn't he" Zhou Shuangqing was too shocked to believe it! How could this person change their gender again
Zhou Shuangqing still wanted to deny it, but as she gradually compared Xu Zuiying with the memory of that Xu Ning, she also began to feel something was wrong.
Xu Ning, Xu Zui Ning.
The only difference between the two names is one character, and their facial features are so similar.
And Xu Ning just disappeared completely, like vanishing into thin air, around the time school started at Xuanqing University.
"You...you really are... you're really Xu Ning!" Zhou Shuangqing screamed, as if finally accepting this truth.
"Yes." Zhou Shuangqing quickly explained the circumstances surrounding her mother's death, Cheng An's involvement, and why she had disguised herself as a man named Xu Ning to participate in "Debut: Idol".
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After Xu Zui Ning finished speaking, she looked apologetically at Zhou Shuang Qing and said, "Shuang Qing, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hide this from you. I shouldn't have lied to you on purpose. But I had a reason that I couldn't tell you, so I kept putting it off."
Xu Zui Ning had long considered Zhou Shuang Qing as her best friend. As good friends, they should be completely honest with each other, not hiding things from one another. She had always wanted to find an opportunity to tell Zhou Shuang Qing all of this, but she just couldn't find the right time to speak up.
And Zhou Shuangqing cried incessantly after hearing Xu Zui'ning recount her mother's story, her eyes swollen with tears. How could she possibly blame Xu Zui'ning anymore
"Zui Ning, you have nothing to apologize for. I understand everything you've done." She couldn't help but step forward and hug Xu Zui Ning, "And for me, having a friend like you is a huge gain! My idol is my roommate! Who in the world could be luckier than me."
Xu Zui'ning heard Zhou Shuangqing's words and couldn't help but smile.
Just then, there was a sudden voice from the doorway— Song Xu's.
"Young Master Chu, the Long Xi Shengjing's original stone auction is about to begin. Are you all ready We should go over now"
Xu Zui'ning only then remembered the Long Xi Sheng Jing original stone auction, she quickly pulled Zhou Shuangqing up, tidied up quickly, and left the dressing room to head towards the auction hall at the end of the first floor.
The auction hall of the Zelda Cruise resembled a grand opera house. A large stage occupied the center, surrounded by ordinary seats. The second floor featured a ring of private boxes reserved for distinguished guests who valued privacy and exclusivity.
With Ouyang Chu's identity on the line, they were naturally arranged in the best location on the second floor: the very center of the second floor.
Moreover, since Ouyang Chu requested to keep things confidential, the general manager had people put up a simple screen in front of the private room. From outside the private room, one could only see the people inside holding signs to participate in the auction, but they couldn't tell at all who was sitting inside.
As soon as Xu Zui Ning and Ou Yang Chu sat down, several waiters came over with trays of fresh fruit and drinks.
At this time, the auction officially began.
A woman in a cheongsam, Mei Xu Zining, walked onto the stage. "Welcome everyone to this special auction of Dragon Xi Shengjing rough stones that we have organized. Today, at our auction site, all the rough stones on display are the highest quality mined from South African ore veins. They will definitely leave you satisfied."n, looking at the oncoming car, he knew that his family had truly arrived. 。That group of people seemed to have received some kind of instruction and quickly evacuated. When Gu Chi got out of the car,...
