Bab 197: New beginnings

"You are right, " The shop owner said. "The girl in the banner looks more beautiful and adorable."

An Xiulan pouted. She had longer hair than before. She didn't have the bangs that she had a year ago. She was seventeen. Her facial features were a bit more mature and sharper than before. Her cute and chubby face was no longer visible. Instead, she had a small oval mouth with big eyes. Her eyes were so big that she could say that she had owlish eyes. 

She was taller than before. She loved being tall but she felt angry when she could no longer dress up as a cute short girl. She was 170cm tall now. 

"Little girl, do you want something else?" The shop owner asked. "We are selling beef noodles at half price because it's the first day of the new session at Jingyuan high. What class are you in? Are you in senior year? You look quite old though."

An Xiulan didn't know whether she should cry or laugh. "I'm not a senior. I'm a junior."
