"Nana Teacher," Lan Xuanyu exclaimed, jumping up excitedly and rushing over to hug Nana tightly.
Bai Xiuxiu wasn't far behind, only a step slower before she reached Nana, even squeezing Lan Xuanyu to the side to snuggle into Nana's embrace.
Embracing them, Nana smiled and said, "You've both grown a bit taller."
"Yeah, I'm taller than he is," Bai Xiuxiu said with a hint of smugness.
The growth of girls at this age truly was rapid. While Lan Xuanyu was not considered short among peers, Bai Xiuxiu had indeed grown slightly taller than him.
Nana asked with a smile, "How did you guys get here? Are you on break?"
Lan Xuanyu responded, "Yep, we're on break. Our soul communicators were broken, so we couldn't contact you and just came directly. They wouldn't let us in at the gate, so we said we were sent by the Academy for an end-of-term challenge against the students here, and that's how we snuck in. How did you know we were here?"
