Mickey saw Gu Qili standing at the door with big and small bundles, and the apple she was nibbling on dropped to the ground with a "pop".
"Qiqi, you... have you been struck by a disaster? You..."
Before she could finish, Gu Qili suddenly stepped forward and embraced her neck; soon after, her neck felt warm as scorching tears started to drop onto it.
"Qiqi, what's wrong with you, don't scare me." Mickey could hear her suppressed sobs, felt a pang in her heart, and tears began to fall from her own eyes too. She hugged her tightly, her voice choked with sobs, "What's happened, talk to me, don't cry. Did Mu Shuoqian bully you? I'll go with you to get back at him, don't cry anymore, Qiqi, don't cry."
Gu Qili held her tightly, her face buried in her neck, crying breathlessly.
It wasn't until her crying had gradually subsided that Mickey pushed her slightly: "What exactly happened? One would think you've been bullied by someone."
