“Hey bro, how ya doin’?” The voice on the other end was jovial and sincere
Xiao Han wasn’t familiar with the voice on the other end, but he knew immediately who and what this call was about “What do you think,” he said i his tone “I actually wanted to apologize I’ht like that, but our instructors told us that’s the e should compete You kno it’s like between our two schools”
