The argument in the stairwell eventually attracted everyone's attention. Bo Changling and the others exchanged glances and got up to go and see what was going on.
I could faintly hear the words "human life" in the background, but I don't know what's going on.
However, when they arrived, they found that only Song Bao'er was there, and the person she had been arguing with was nowhere to be found.
Song Bao'er clenched her fists, looking as if she had been greatly wronged.
Hearing the noise, she turned her head and saw who it was. Ignoring everyone else, she focused her gaze on the person she both loved and hated—Qin Che.
"Why are you so late? I've been bullied."
Song Bao'er looked like she had found a relative; her eyes reddened, and she pouted pitifully.
Qin Che hadn't seen Song Bao'er like this in a long time.
The last time she cried so bitterly was probably when her cat, Oscar, died.
Thinking of the carefree and happy times they had shared, Qin Che sighed, finally softening his heart.
"Don't cry. Who bullied you? Your brother will help you."
“A-Che”.
Song Bao'er's eyelashes trembled slightly, then her eyes widened in disbelief, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind.
Qin Che...
Has he changed his mind?
The two gazed at each other affectionately. The others who saw this did not ask any further questions and prepared to leave.
Bo Changling and his group, in particular, were eager to get rid of one of their eyesores, so they left in a hurry.
Coincidentally, no sooner had these men left than Mu Lingxi got up and went downstairs, and the group just missed each other.
On the stairs, Song Bao'er was hugging Qin Che and crying incessantly, sobbing pitifully.
Qin Che didn't push her away, but let Song Bao'er hug him and patted her back reassuringly.
Mu Lingxi happened to witness this scene when she came downstairs.
Well……
I have to say, it was a little awkward to catch them having a private meeting, in case they were whispering to each other.
Thinking this, Mu Lingxi wanted to leave quietly and go back upstairs.
Since Mu Lingxi saw them, Qin Che could also see Mu Lingxi.
The girl had milky white skin, almost glowing. Perhaps because she had just woken up, her sleepy eyes added to her cuteness.
She wasn't wearing makeup; her face was bare. Her eyebrows were naturally black, and her lips were naturally red. From afar, she looked like a lotus emerging from the water, beautiful and gentle.
Qin Che's heart unconsciously quickened, and his expression softened.
He saw that Mu Lingxi was trying to avoid them, and knew that she had misunderstood.
However, looking at his own hand holding Song Bao'er, he realized that their posture was indeed too intimate, no wonder Ling Xi would misunderstand.
Thinking this, Qin Che pushed Song Bao'er a little further away.
"Lingxi, you're up. Do you want to go downstairs? Come on."
Qin Che was so focused on Mu Lingxi that he didn't notice that Song Bao'er, whom he had pushed away, had stiffened and even her crying had weakened.
Mu Lingxi hadn't expected Qin Che to have such sharp eyes, but going back now felt like she was trying to cover something up.
Forget it, she didn't do anything wrong, let's just get out of here.
"Excuse me."
Mu Lingxi moved very quickly, her small body darting away like a little rabbit in a flash.
Qin Che smiled as he looked at it, finding it amusing and feeling much better.
Suddenly, he remembered that there were three wolves watching him intently outside, and his actions just now...
I must have lost my mind! Isn't this like letting a lamb walk into the lion's den?
Thinking this, Qin Che suddenly didn't want to listen to Song Bao'er's complaints anymore.
"Bao'er, since you and Bai Meng don't get along, then don't try to be together. There are only three days left in the show, so just bear with it. I have other things to do—"
"Ache, no, I still have so much to tell you."
Song Bao'er clung tightly to his shirt, refusing to let him leave.
At this moment, Bai Mengmeng was nowhere to be seen in her mind; all she could think about was Qin Che's perfunctory attitude towards her.
The two were almost able to repair their relationship, and Qin Che was patiently comforting her, but Mu Lingxi's arrival ruined everything.
Mu Lingxi, it's you again! You're ruining my plans again!
Song Bao'er's eyes were filled with resentment and venom, then as if she had thought of something, she suddenly made up her mind.
Since you won't let me have an easy time, then I won't let you have an easy time either!
Seeing her silence, Qin Che assumed she had come to her senses and decided not to stay.
"Well, I'll head back now. Bao'er, go wash your face and rest for a bit."
Song Bao'er felt extremely distressed upon hearing this. She suppressed her malicious expression, looked up at Qin Che, and pleaded with red eyes.
"Can't you stay and keep me company? I really need you right now."
"Baby, be strong, it's not a big deal."
Qin Che didn't want to disappoint the other party, but he knew what staying meant.
He didn't want to reinstate the engagement, nor did he want to lie to her that he might... really have changed his mind.
