```
Qiao Xia simply couldn't hold out, so cold she could only hide in the corner, tightly wrapping herself up. Even so, she still couldn't fend off the chill creeping up from the soles of her feet, and in the latter half of the night, she developed a high fever.
```
```
No one cared for her.
```
```
The night watch officer couldn't stand it anymore, "Give her a blanket."
```
```
"Orders from above say to let her suffer a bit, if you want to lose your job, you do it."
```
```
"What a pity, such a little beauty, and no telling whom she's offended."
```
```
Qiao Xia could faintly hear them talking, the fever making her delirious.
```
```
"Mu Liang..."
```
```
She wondered if she was going to die.
```
```
Her head grew heavier, and she had heard that people can actually freeze to death in cold weather. She felt as though she was about to be frozen to death.
```
```
"Mu Liang..." Qiao Xia's eyes reddened, "where are you..."
```
