"Oh!" Zhao Lanci, hands on her hips, fiercely scanned the three boys and demanded, "You three! What sort of mischief are you up to?"
"I... I don't know, I'm getting out of here." Knowing he couldn't afford to mess with Zhao Lanci, who was tougher than any man, Xia Huai immediately made a run for it.
The remaining two boys also understood that Zhao Lanci might look pretty but was not someone to mess with, and they quickly followed suit.
"Stop right there!" Zhao Lanci shouted, picking up her long dress and starting to chase after them.
"You girls, go help Lanci!" Han Yiyin urged the other girls.
"Lanci needs our help? It seems like those three boys need help more," Deng Lianqiu muttered.
"Lanci is wearing a long dress and can't move easily. Plus, they overheard our little secret just now! Aren't you guys worried?" Han Yiyin yelled at the girls.
