Chapter 1498 - Great to Have You (58) (2/2)

Soon, the other five contestants entered the room, one of whom was plain-looking and had short hair. However, she was extremely tall and had excellent proportions. She took the bed above Long Xiaoxi’s.

Due to the fact that they were all strangers, the room was dead silent and there was no conversation at all.

A short while later, the plain-looking girl got off the bed and started introducing herself to everyone.

“Hello, everyone, my name is Wang Hulu. Please guide me along.”

A girl who had an afro said, “Hello, my name is Li Xiaoxiao. Who gave you that name? It’s so unique.”

“My parents did.”

The girl with an afro then asked Long Xiaoxi, “What’s your name?”

“Xuan Yin.”

“Is that a stage name?”

“Umm. Yes.”

“I like you. Can we be friends?” said Li Xiaoxiao, who walked toward her and extended a hand.

Long Xiaoxi was bewildered, for it was the first time that she’d encountered another girl telling her that she liked her. After all, it was a little too enthusiastic of Li Xiaoxiao to ask to be friends on their first meeting.

She shook Li Xiaoxiao’s hand and said, “Sure.”

There was no harm in being friends.

“Do you want to go out for a meal? I know of a restaurant that serves up delicious food. It’s my treat.”

Feeling famished, Long Xiaoxi stood up and grabbed her purse. She agreed with a smile, “Let’s go.”

After exiting the room, Li Xiaoxiao began holding Long Xiaoxi’s hand, giving her a great shock. She found the way that Li Xiaoxiao was smiling at her to be rather strange.

“You must be curious about why I took the initiative to befriend you. I actually know how to do face-reading and I use that ability to decide who to befriend. I can tell from your face that you’re a kind and pleasant person. That Wang Hulu is worlds apart from you. I didn’t say that just because she looks dull. In conclusion, she doesn’t have a good face. I can tell that she’s a petty and narrow-minded person who would throw a fit over every slightest thing. Besides, she likes gossiping and creating rumors, and I could tell with one glance that she’s not trustworthy at all.”

“I’ve only ever heard of fortune-telling. Is face-reading that accurate too?”

Li Xiaoxiao said confidently, “Of course it is. However, it all depends on the reader’s skills. I come from a family of face-readers, and I guess we’re experts at face-reading. However, it’s a really useful skill to have. I can tell a person’s character just by looking at their face. That saves me lots of hassle.”

Long Xiaoxi realized that she spoke at a very quick pace and was a frank and candid person as well. She was certain that Li Xiaoxiao was not a scheming person. “Do you come from this city?”

Shaking her head, Li Xiaoxiao answered, “No, I’m from B City, and I came here just for this modeling contest. How about you?”

“I’m from this city.”

“Why are you staying here, then? Isn’t it better to go home?”

Long Xiaoxi explained, “I don’t want to miss out on any important news so I felt that it’s better to stay here.”

“I think you’d make it to the top ten.”

“Why do you think so?” Long Xiaoxi asked.

“Because you exude a charming and elegant aura. I noticed you the moment I entered the room. I’m really glad to be your friend.”

“Thank you, I think you’re pretty good yourself too.”

“Hehe, I hope we can advance together.” She treated Long Xiaoxi to lunch at a restaurant. Hence, Long Xiaoxi decided to treat her to some milk tea after their meal.
