Xiao Mo quickly pulled his hand back and turned away from Bai Luo to wipe his tears with his sleeves. However, he forgot he still had makeup on, so he smudged his face.
Bai Luo was worried and even a bit panicked when he saw that Xiao Mo was crying. He instinctively stepped forward wanting to comfort him.
"Xiao Mo-"
Suddenly, Mei-Mei appeared in front of him, stopping him from approaching Xiao Mo.
"Young Lady Mai, it seems we'll have to cut our interaction short as my Young Master isn't feeling well."
Bai Luo looked at Xiao Mo, who had his back towards him and hesitated. He still felt uncomfortable leaving things the way they are, he wanted to speak with Xiao Mo.
But why was he feeling like this?
Why did he feel so anxious seeing Xiao Mo crying that it felt like his heart was being submerged in water?
He had no reason to care why Xiao Mo was ignoring him, or why he had become so upset that he started crying, and yet he did.
