The girl, being pulled along by a classmate, reluctantly agreed. Still, her eyes couldn't help but drift toward Gu Jiaojiao.
'Watching that beautiful figure fade into the distance... Fate is so unfair. Some people can look absolutely divine without a lick of makeup.'
'While others spend ages piling on makeup, only to fail at covering their dark circles.'
'Look at that flawless skin, those plump, vibrant red lips, and that thick, lustrous hair.'
The girl closed her eyes, trying to hide the jealousy practically spilling out of her.
She felt a deep sense of resentment. 'Why should *I* have to clean the lab?'
She was a third-year medical student, twenty-three years old. Her family was well-off; both her parents were government officials.
Though her family wasn't based in the Imperial City, they were considered prominent back in their home city.
Her name was Guo Xin. Ever since she was little, her dream had been to become a surgeon, a dream that fueled her diligent studies.
