"Yes," Xiao Yong replied expressionlessly.
As soon as Pei Qin entered the ice water, she immediately shivered from the cold. The water had been drawn from the well. The hotter the day, the colder the well water, and a bucket of ice had been added to it, making the cold piercing to the bone.
"Sister Qin! How is it now?" Xiao Yong anxiously called out to her from the side.
Chilled to the core, Pei Qin's eyes finally cleared slightly from their haziness, regaining some alertness, "Xiao Yong?"
"Yes! It's me! Don't worry, Sister Qin! You'll feel better after soaking in the ice water!" Xiao Yong nodded.
"Alright," Pei Qin closed her eyes. She trembled from the cold, yet a relentless fire within her continued to torment her will, "You all go out first!"
Xiao Yong pursed his lips, "Alright! I'll be right outside the door, call me immediately if you need anything, Sister Qin!"
"Hmm," Pei Qin scooped up a handful of icy water and splashed it onto her face, quelling the heat in her head.
