No one uttered a sound. They found themselves holding their breath in utter disbelief. Even Jiang Chen didn't react to the pain on his head. "Auntie, are you alright? You're trembling..."
Wei Yi Yi tried to calm herself by taking deep breaths.
"Get me some ice from the refrigerator..." she said, distracted.
Xiao Yuan Xi made a few 'ah eh' sounds. He heard 'ice' but the rest of the sentence didn't process in his head. He tried to respond respectfully but his words came out in a jumbled mess.
He didn't know that the other two reacted the same way, and so, they turned around simultaneously and hit each other. Tang Mei end up tripping and Xiao Wang Xi grabbed her in an attempt to save her, still, both of them fall down towards Xiao Yuan Xi and he ends up as their cushion.
Jiang Liu, "...this was... totally unintentional."
Jiang Chen, "..."
Wei Yi Yi put a hand on her mouth in hope that the blood would stop. Much to her dismay, it continues to drip at the edge of her lips.
