Lei Hong darted behind Song Ning with a whoosh.
Song Ning stood up and said indignantly:
"Comrade Lao Lei! That's no way to discipline a child!"
Lei Ming froze, then considered who the older and younger girls before him really were, and immediately lost his bluster.

She pushed Lei Ming aside.
Looking at the people in the hallway, she said with reddened eyes:

Only little Lei Hong frowned
