Bai Qingqing was shocked by Muir's reaction, and the parts where she was being grabbed were still somehow in pain. Seeing Muir's agitated gaze, Bai Qingqing smiled and said in amusement, "Are you out of it? You've even dropped the bark. Quickly go wash it clean."
"Oh." Muir rapidly turned and picked up the bark as if he had received an order, took two steps quickly, then turned back to look at Bai Qingqing. He let out a foolish laugh, then ran into the rain.
Bai Qingqing smiled, her heart aching a little for him.
