"...What?"

Van could not help but furrow his eyebrows as he looked at Andrea's face, which seemed to be completely white in shock. Ah Sahm was also utterly taken aback as he froze on the spot.

"Wow, man", Ah Sahm clapped his hand, "You can speak mandarin? That's probably the first time in my whole life that I heard an American fluently speak our language", he said, his tone filled with awe.

"...Yes", Van could only nod his head, "They teach it as an extra class in the Academy"
