Bai Xue, who was both spectating and interfering, widened her eyes in disbelief, updating her understanding of Han Mingyue. She thought to herself inwardly, "No wonder they say a cornered dog will leap over a wall... A cornered rabbit, uh! Hasn't even bitten anyone yet..."
Han Mingyue's thinking was much simpler, "Good thing I jumped out in time, otherwise they might have left without waiting for me..."
After walking out of the school gate in silence, Bai Xue was the first who couldn't stand the weird and awkward atmosphere.
"Just now when Teacher Jiang was reading the list of the study group, I listened carefully and didn't hear your names. Did neither of you join?"
The response she got was a simultaneous "Hmm" from both.
Then, no one spoke again.
Bai Xue thought, well, that's that!
Nobody high-fived her, and she feared that her hand, no matter how hard she tried, could not make a clap by itself...
