Seeing his gentle and concerned eyes, Mai Xiaomai suddenly felt a pang of sorrow and lowered her head to cry.
Abis wanted to reach out and hold her, let her cry her heart out in his arms.
But recalling the scene from last time when he hugged Mai Xiaomai and was seen by Qiao Danfeng, resulting in a misunderstanding, he changed his gesture to patting her shoulder.
Coming here from the forest, he had witnessed her going through a series of ordeals, which would have overwhelmed an ordinary person.
Yet she continued to face them bravely, as strong as a little pine tree on a cliff.
After crying for a while, Mai Xiaomai's phone rang; it was a call from Duoduo.
"Sis, Qinglang hasn't come to keep me company yet. Can you call him and ask, please?"
Mai Duoduo noticed Feng Qinglang hadn't come, feeling annoyed and restless, unable to eat lunch or sleep.
