Gu Ning took the workbook Alex had corrected, feeling a little embarrassed by his praise.
She felt like she had returned to her elementary school days, overjoyed by a teacher's praise.
Even though she wasn't an elementary school student anymore, what she was learning now was the Beastman equivalent of grade school material, and Alex's tone was exactly like a teacher's.
Gu Ning's first instinct when she felt embarrassed was to scratch her head, but all she hit was her cold, hard helmet.
She paused, then sheepishly lowered her hand.
Alex noticed her little gesture. "You don't have to wear your helmet all the time in the office," he said. "Take it off if it's uncomfortable."
Gu Ning didn't answer him, but she did give the matter of her hair some serious thought.
Her hair, which reached her waist, was quite long. That would have been fine in her original world, but it was a bit difficult to manage here.
