It wasn't just me who was caught by surprise. Even the audience never expected Shi Meili to act like that. Furthermore, those who were in the Meili Shelter were the ones who were taken aback the most.
Maybe, Shi Meili always had this calm and collected character ever since she joined the Meili Shelter back then. She had orange hair and red phoenix-like eyes just like how a phoenix would look like. And that's probably why she went with the calm and collected character as her persona.
But now, it's like she was back to her old self again. A crybaby who always acted like a child. Seeing her like that made me feel a sense of nostalgia. It took all of my being to suppress the smile that my lips almost transformed into.
Without further ado. I grabbed her by the hand and helped her up on her feet. "Are you okay?" I concernedly asked. "I'm really sorry if that scared you."
