Little Reporter sneezed hard. "It's so cold."

"Little Reporter!!!"
"Huh? Shen Qi."
Little Reporter was suddenly hauled up, her eyes widening in confusion. "Isn't this the wrong way to hug someone?"

Little Reporter nodded. "I can't become a star with everyone watching me just yet, so I might as well become a star idol at school."

Little Reporter spread her hands. "How could students without the ability or courage to enter the friendly match have the nerve to laugh at me? Besides, there are individual matches, team matches, and individual matches for the teachers. With that many events, I won't be the only one losing."
