"Here. You'll be needing this for sure. Put it on every morning, then wash your face to take it off before you go to bed." Meimei placed a ceramic vessel in Maomao's hand. Presumably it contained some sort of cream that would be good for the skin.

"They're going to take our little Maomao somewhere like that? What idiot made that decision?" demanded Joka.
