Even though each part needed scrubbing, with Qin Lan's help, the two of them quickly managed to clean all the parts and left them soaking in water.
"Is it okay to just soak them like this? Xin, aren't you going to add any detergent?" Qin Lan asked, as she watched Chen Xin soak all the parts in water, confirming with concern.
Chen Xin nodded, affirming, "Soaking them like this is fine. It's a pity we don't have kerosene; it would be the most effective."
"What are you doing now?" Qin Lan asked, removing her gloves and putting them aside, looking toward Chen Xin, waiting for his instructions.
Feeling a little embarrassed under Qin Lan's gaze, Chen Xin scratched his face with his finger and said, "What if I say I want to keep playing games, will you hit me?"
"..." Qin Lan silently looked at Chen Xin, then said after a while, "No, Xin, you can do whatever you like. But I still think you should find something to do; playing games won't make you happier."
