When Li Meirong gave no further response, Bao Li began to sob loudly. Her glossy eyes filled with tears, which lingered and remained unshed.
"It seems that for this disciple, our friendship no longer matters! I am merely a servant in the sect, so making a promise to me is of no consequence to an inner sect disciple such as yourself!"
"Such nonsense!" Li Meirong rose from her seat and went to kneel by Bao Li's side. She tenderly cupped her friend's cheeks, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with her thumbs. "I truly have no idea what you're talking about," she admitted, "but if I upset you in any way, then I apologize deeply. How about you tell me the full story first, so we can solve this issue together, hm?"
Witnessing all this from the outside, Xiao An Fei's mouth hung open slightly. Her Ladyship, Li Meirong, was being far too softhearted!
This Bao Li was obviously shedding crocodile tears; how could Her Ladyship fall for such a simple trick?
