Among those three girls, the one with a bit of baby fat on her face boasted, "It's good that we've been following Xinyu and the rest. We hardly took any wrong turns and even took some shortcuts."
This haunted house had a bit of a maze-like nature, so even though Chen Yuan and Xia Xinyu were delayed for a while, he was still the fastest player to get through.
So, with this girl's praise, all the girls in the class were maxing out their admiration for Chen Yuan, especially admiring him.
It's like this, in any domain, if you surpass ordinary people and perform exceptionally, it'll score you points, especially at times that test courage.
Just like the natural world's male lions, they are the strongest and bravest.
Although Xia Xinyu didn't particularly like the way they clung to Chen Yuan in the haunted house, she was quite proud and satisfied with them praising Chen Yuan.
That's how women are.
Being jealous and showing off don't get in the way of each other.
