Qin Che didn't notice, but Mu Lingxi did.

Mu Lingxi wasn't blind. Gao Yue was facing her directly, her face covered in tears, her nose red from crying.

"Are you... are you alright? I'll go get you some tissues?"

Mu Lingxi felt a chill run down her spine; she really couldn't bear to see a girl crying.

Especially the resentful look in the other person's eyes made Mu Lingxi feel a little flustered, and she even got goosebumps all over her body.

She just wanted to escape the scene as quickly as possible, or find more people to help her share the fire, or at least stop her from staring at her like that.

Thinking this, Mu Lingxi ran faster than a rabbit and went straight to the living room. She saw Bai Mengmeng and the other person and told them what happened.

"Gao Yue seems to be crying. Do you want to go and comfort her?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mengmeng and Song Bao'er sensed there was more to it than met the eye and immediately agreed, eager to find out more.

After all, everything was fine just now. Who knows what happened? Anyway, it has nothing to do with them. They can just watch the show.

"Yueyue...you're crying?"

"Yueyue, what happened? Did someone bully you?"

When Bai Mengmeng and Song Bao'er arrived, Gao Yue was staring stubbornly at Qin Che, sobbing uncontrollably.

Bo Changling and his group heard the commotion and stopped their standoff, all coming over.

Now, Gao Yue enjoyed being the center of attention, with everyone doting on her.

However, Gao Yue only felt ashamed at this moment. She had only cried because Qin Che had changed his mind, but now the whole world knew about it.

Here's a tissue.

At that moment, a small, exceptionally fair and delicate hand reached out from behind Gao Yue, holding a pack of tissues and trembling as it was extended in front of her.

Well, when it suddenly made that sound, I thought it was a ghost!

Gao Yue was so startled that she couldn't cry anymore and instead let out deep sobs.

“You don’t need to surround me. I just want to be alone for a while now, and... I’d like to talk to you later.”

Gao Yue's last sentence was clearly directed at Qin Che; it was quite obvious who had made her cry.

Qin Che was completely bewildered. He hadn't done anything, so why was he suddenly being blamed?

"I?"

He still felt something was wrong and suspected that Gao Yue had called the wrong person, so he pointed to himself again to confirm.

That means, are you sure it's me? I didn't do anything to you.

Gao Yue was exhausted. She had been crying alone for so long, and no one even knew how she had made her cry.

Wasn't she just putting on a one-woman show?

Gao Yue stopped crying, her eyes red and her head pounding as she nodded fiercely, not giving Qin Che a chance to make a fuss.

"Yes, I just want to talk to you."

...

Song Bao'er glanced at Gao Yue, then at Qin Che, and at Mu Lingxi, who was handing Gao Yue a tissue. Her eyes darted around, and an idea came to her.

"Gao Yue, what did Qin Che do just now that upset you?"

When Song Bao'er said this, everyone thought she was standing up for Gao Yue, but to everyone's surprise, she changed the subject in her next sentence—

"Whether it's related to Lingxi or not, it's best for everyone to speak openly and avoid any misunderstandings."

It has to be said, Song Bao'er's mind works really fast.

She clearly didn't see anything, but she dared to guess that it was Mu Lingxi, wanting only to drag the other person down with her.

Under the guise of standing up for Gao Yue, Song Bao'er directly dragged Mu Lingxi into the matter.

He wanted to take advantage of the other party's irrationality to make them say things that were bad about Mu Lingxi.
