Zhou Li quickened her pace and caught up with them.
Up ahead, Lu Yan and Mei Shu were skillfully teasing and joking with each other, suspecting that the other couldn't hold on anymore. In reality, both of them were breathing steadily, not a drop of sweat to be seen.
Compared to the two of them, Zhou Li seemed to be gasping for breath.
She approached Lu Yan and playfully patted his shoulder, "Lu Yan, are you two making a bet? Count me in!"
Lu Yan's smile, which he had only shown to Mei Shu earlier, disappeared completely. "We are walking fast. Can you keep up?"
Zhou Li steadied her breath and refused to show weakness, "I'm here, aren't I? Lu Yan, just let me join you. I won't slow you down! And, look, I can keep up, can't I?"
Lu Yan furrowed his brow, "If you want to follow, then follow."
