I tucked away the just-now unbearable expression, touched my nose with slight embarrassment, and looked at Chen with her red eyes, feeling a bit guilty, "I'm fine, Chen, I was just teasing you. Don't take it seriously."
Seeing that I was okay, Chen hiccupped twice and glared at me hard, "You're really annoying, why did you do that to me?"
As the little girl looked like she was about to cry, I hurriedly said, "Don't cry, it's my fault, I shouldn't have teased you. How about I treat you to dinner tonight?"
Chen touched her tears, her small face flushed, "No, I'm not crying, I just have a little... a little tear incontinence syndrome, I'm not really... really wanting to cry."
I was somewhat surprised by her expression, as this was the first time I had heard of tear incontinence syndrome, and I, for one, have no resistance to a girl's tears.
