The tips of her ears were red, but the corners of her lips couldn't help but lift into an expectant smile.

Her fingertips would trace the phone screen, her gaze following the young men and women competing in teams on the display. It was clear she was filled with longing.
But she was too timid. Every time she wanted to ask Gu Ming, 'Do you need a teammate?'
The words would reach her lips and turn into, "Should we adjust today's Earth Shifting Technique training?"
