"What's wrong, Xiao Mei? Did it remind you of some sad memories?"
Xiao Mei shook her head desperately, but tears continued to fall, "I lied to you, brother. There was no kind-hearted granny! Those buns were stolen by me... There's a little hole at the back of the shop, and I sneak in there every time to steal a bun for you, then leave. I got bitten by dogs a few times, but I didn't dare tell you!"
As she spoke, Xiao Mei lifted her pants leg; there were a few distinct scars on her calf. Although they had healed long ago, the bite marks were still visible...
Hearing this, Long Lingli reached out and tightly embraced Xiao Mei, "Xiao Mei did nothing wrong, don't say sorry. It's brother's fault, brother didn't take care of Xiao Mei, and let her suffer. I'm sorry, Xiao Mei, this is all my fault for letting you get hurt so much."
"No, brother can't be wrong. No matter what you do, Xiao Mei knows it's for her good; you are never wrong."
