Ah... sorry. I just, I have a friend who always gets upset whenever his books get dirty, so when I saw yours, I was reminded of what he might say if his own fell onto the ground.

[Oh, he's heard plenty of Xingqiu's laments about books that got soaked, books that got soiled, or books that got damaged. But books aside, Chongyun gives the boy a firm look.]

But what's more, you should be careful of where you sleep. This city can be quite dangerous, and you don't want to be caught unawares in case something bad happens. Do you not have a safe place to rest?
