Gu Nian fixed his gaze on me. "What if Mrs. Mai didn't force her and Mai Qi volunteered?"
"Impossible!" I blurted out.
Then, my gaze met Gu Nian's.
I paused.
I stood up immediately, grabbed my backpack, and rushed out.
Gu Nian pulled me back, "Nanxing! Calm down!"
I flung his hand away, my eyes were cold. "Gu Nian, if I find out you're involved in this, I will never forgive you!"
Gu Nian's hands hung limply by his side. I called Su Qian to get her to pick me up.
...
Mai Qi was gone. I asked Sister Li why she didn't tell me that Mai Qi had left.
Sister Li was confused and she uttered timidly, "Miss Mai Qi said she was only going back to her mother's. She said she would call you to inform you herself. She didn't want us to disturb you."
I was so angry. Mai Qi, you're done for!
I immediately called my group of four. I had them search the town to find Mai Qi.
