"Are you sure I can stay here?" June whispered into Jia's ears, causing her to recoil and squeak in shock. The students in the room all turned to the two of them, causing Jia to throw them apologetic looks.
Their eyes lingered longer on June, silently asking who the newcomer was.
Jia merely smiled and scooted closer to June in hopes of covering him. However, it was no use. He was too colorful not to be noticed.
"If you wore a less eye-catching color, then maybe we can pull this off," Jia muttered under her breath.
June leaned closer to Jia, their noses almost touching. She let out a small gasp while he continued to look unfazed.
"What was that?" he whispered. "I didn't hear what you said."
Jia placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him away.
"Nothing," she awkwardly chuckled. "Just stay put until the end of the class so you won't be noticed, okay? Then, we'll go and follow the girl right afterward."
