55 Under The Orders Of The Country

There was a group of seven to eight people inside the shop. Suddenly, a young man's voice cut through the commotion. "Take off your mask and let me see. This is the first time I come across a person with a disability!"

Su Xing did not say anything. She clutched tightly her bubble tea and took one step back, eliciting yet another bout of chuckles from the group of young men. 

The young man who had spoken just now reached out for Su Xing and stopped her from getting away. "Hey, don't rush off, we're not done yet. I asked you to take off your face mask. What are you still waiting for? It's not like your arm is broken or anything."

Another young man chimed in, his words offensive and his tone ear-grating. "Yeah, right. Don't you feel stuffy wearing a face mask on this hot day?"
