Just then, from the crowd below, an old woman shrieked at the top of her lungs.

"Oh, oh, oh! Shy, are we?" Hu Pingping teased, pointing at Liu Xiaoling with a giggle. The surrounding students joined in the laughter, teasing her until she stood up, grabbed Wang Xuanlong, and bolted out of the classroom.
