Wei Yi Yi desire to 'nope' the hell out there as soon as she could. Su Mei Fan cuteness would double when she speaks while Feng Lei's would descend down the chats.
When talking to smart people, it's either you get enlighten or your last brain cell will be fried.
A serious case of hit and miss! Wei Yi Yi's lifetime of experience did not ready her to survive such claustrophobe.
