The male student who had been mocking Gu Lan was frozen in place. He felt that things shouldn't be like this, at least, they shouldn't...
He fell silent.
His companion, perhaps guided by some mysterious force, hadn't given up on their plan to mock Gu Lan. After his friend's failed attempt, he became more audacious and raised his voice even louder.
"Gu Lan, why are you leaving? Are you scared? You were expelled for bullying girls. Did you come back by using connections? Wow, that's impressive. I'm so scared..." He put on a show, but Gu Lan seemed unfazed.
Another gust of wind blew by, leaving him awkwardly playing his part.
The duo who had mocked Gu Lan exchanged a glance and saw the word "embarrassed" written clearly in each other's eyes. The first guy who had mocked Gu Lan couldn't help but whisper, "Do you think Gu Lan is afraid of us?"
The second mocker replied, "Think about it. Would she be afraid of us? Is that possible?"
