You and Xiao finished fighting a hilichurl camp that was slowly becoming bigger and bigger near Wangshu Inn; it was a danger and it scared away customers.

It was late at night, Xiao and you were having a silent walk through the valleys of Liyue. The wind was blowing a little bit colder than usual and you noticed Xiao's nose and ears getting a bit red from the cold.

You lean in close to him as you walk and hold his hand.

You ask him

Tell me why... your hands.. are cold..?*
