章 164: Rescue

I put my arm around Mai Qi's shoulders and brought her out of the room. The door slammed close behind me. Mai Qi sighed in relief and led me away.

I chided. "My dear princess, you look like you've just been kidnapped."

Mai Qi sighed. "It sure felt like it."

I asked, "Shall we return to the dorm?"

"Where are you going?" She asked when she saw the bags I had packed.

"I'm going home. I'm going out with Jing Tian tomorrow." I answered, telling her implicitly that we didn't want a third wheel.

She was disappointed. "The whole world is abandoning me!"

I nudged her. "If you want, you can turn back and they can be your whole world."

Mai Qi pouted, "Nanxing, don't you have anything that my father can help you with?"

I was confused. "What can your father do for me?"

Mai Qi thought for a moment. "Well, anything."

I smiled. "Can your father help me write my thesis then?"
