At the outrageous remark from Liu Chaoshu's deskmate, the students all lowered their heads. Only the dean narrowed her eyes.
"Porno... clips?"
His anxious expression briefly froze. Swallowing nervously, he played dumb. "Huh? What clips? Do you want to watch something, ma'am? I don't have anything! Please, carry on, carry on!"

The dean gave Li Qing a meaningful look.
