Finally... during class, she watched the boy lick up the "noodles" of snot that were running into his mouth. He did it with relish, savoring the taste a few times. Then he wiped away what was left, smearing it all over his sleeve.
Tang Xiaonan finally understood why the boy's sleeves were so crusty. It was all from the snot he'd wiped on them.
"GAG..."
Tang Xiaonan dry-heaved a few times. She deeply regretted paying so much attention to the boy. 'If I hadn't looked, I'd be fine,' she thought. 'Now I'm completely grossed out.'
The boy seemed to sense her staring and turned to give her a wide grin. He was actually a pretty cute kid, but the snot... it was beyond description.
Tang Xiaonan forced a smile. She pulled a handkerchief from her pocket and offered it to the boy, pointing at his nose to show him what it was for. The boy froze for a moment before he understood. He scratched his head, embarrassed, but didn't take it.
