Where's Kai?

"Hey, do you think Grace likes shorter guys?" Ailun asked, pestering Max as they trained.

Max sighed as he continued with his reps. 

"Why don't you ask her?" he deadpanned. 

During the morning, Coach Guanyu looked stricter than usual, so the guys thought that they were going to have a new teammate. 

However, it seemed like they had a new assistant manager instead—a first-year student named Grace. 

Ailun instantly took a liking to her. However, she was on the taller side, even a little bit taller than Ailun, which made him doubt his charisma. 

"Hey, I can't do that. We just met," he said, shyly scratching the back of his neck. 

"Then, you should train harder," Max said. "Maybe then, you could grow taller." 

Ailun's eyebrows raised in surprise. 

"Wait, is that really possible?" 

Meanwhile, in Shizi High, the Dogs also started gathering after their class.
