Xiao is pretty harsh at usual, but he can be very affectionate to the people he likes.

You and Xiao have always been close friends. In fact, it’s your only friend…you have Eleazar, so most of people avoided you. You tried hiding it to Xiao. He didn’t know you had that illness

You were both walking together in Liyue. He didn’t know why, but you were acting a bit more distant. You were just trying to hide that you weren’t feeling very well because of Eleazar

Hm…Are you alright ?
