Chapter 444: Worries

Mai Qi wiped her tears in embarrassment but avoided my gaze.

Mai Qi paused, and then she nodded slightly.

Mai Qi was embarrassed. I stood up and wheeled her along the garden path. "Mai Qi, can you tell me what was on your mind when you took the bullet for my little uncle?"

Mai Qi gave me a wry smile. "What was I thinking? I didn't have the time to think. Jing Ni and I were surfing the internet when the internet was cut off. We were about to lodge a complaint against the hotel when Tong Le barged in with his men. He pulled us and ran.
