Chapter 0002
This path was undeniably challenging, but regardless of how tough it might get, I was determined to give it a shot. I had faith in myself!
I overheard Yvonne boasting to someone, “Oh, come on, Nash is just a guy others hype up. In reality, he doesn’t know anything; he’s just a bit of an art geek.
“On that note, if it weren’t for the fact that he’s participated in so many competitions, his reputation, and the fact that he’s reasonably good–looking, who would be willing to be with him?”
A fellow classmate chimed in, “Cut it out, Yvonne. If you’re going to brag, at least be realistic. He’s a top student. Do you really think he’d be interested in you? You’re probably just a fun distraction for him because you have the reputation of being a campus hottie.”
Yvonne snorted, “You guys are just jealous. Who cares if he’s a top student? I can win him over anytime.
“To prove whether he’s genuinely interested in me or not, that’s simple. Just wait and see.”
The classmate added, “I heard he’s about to participate in an international art competition. If you’re as talented as you claim, why don’t you try to stop him from going?”
I sat right beside her, fully aware of how crucial this competition was for Nash and how much effort he had invested in it.
