He Jing was very popular. She received a basket of love letters every day. She did not know where the boys from the nearby schools had gotten their information. When free, they would climb the wall and peep into the school.
The boys from Yin High School were even more enthusiastic. There were even some who skipped class just to try and catch her eye, causing a scene outside her classroom. They were all caught, of course, and made to stand in the hallway as punishment. The more shameless few even said, "Teacher, please let us stand in the hallway outside of Grade Two Class Three."
How infuriating.
