He is Brave Compared to Me

Previously: 

Lai chuckled, forgetting about her unpleasant conversation with Lay Ming.

'Oh,' Na then texted with a sad emoji, 'looks like it was a bust. The guy looks dejected, hahaha.'

'I think no one is surprised by this,' Zhenya texted with a mocking emoji, 'since nobody likes him.'

'True,' Jingyi sent a laughing emoji.

'You guys are so mean to me,' Lingxin texted with a crying emoji, 'You should be comforting me, not adding salt to the wound.'

Lai chuckled as she texted, "Hang in there, Lingxin. Your time will come."

'Only Lai believes in me!' Lingxin replied with a text almost immediately, putting a crying emoji.

'That's because she doesn't know how hopeless you are,' Jingyi texted.

'Very hopeless,' Na texted.

'Extremely hopeless,' Zhenya agreed with a thumbs-up emoji.

'What lovely colleagues I have,' Lingxin texted with a clapping hands emoji, 'I feel blessed.'
