Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1761 Lips

Wu Xunsheng was a little incoherent, and he continued, "Although what you write is very simple every time, I can understand it..." At this point he realized that Tie Hongyan seemed to be looking at his lips.

After he smiled at her earlier, the wound on his lip opened again and began to bleed.

He regretted smiling that time and felt that the most important thing at the moment was to find an excuse to stay away from Tie Hongyan. He took out his handkerchief and wiped his lips clean, then said, "Um... let me pour you some water."

As he said this, he quickly walked towards a table.

Tie Hongyan waved his hand to signal him not to pour the water.

He clearly saw it, but pretended not to see it in order to temporarily stay away from Tie Hongyan.

Before Wu Xunsheng turned his back and poured the water, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the blood off his lips, and quickly rolled up the handkerchief and put it back into his pocket.

He didn't know that Tie Hongyan already understood what he was doing.

Tie Hongyan was not sure why there was an obvious wound on his lip, but he knew he was covering it up. Thinking about the sound he made during the Taoist's ritual, and the pain he endured for her at that time, Tie Hongyan's eyes became moist again.

She had always wanted to cry before, but she had been holding it back because she was in front of others and wanted to prevent them from seeing her and thinking too much.

At this moment, she did not try her best to control herself as she did before in front of others. The tears she had been holding back burst out under the stimulation of his concealing actions.

Tie Hongyan immediately wiped away her tears with her sleeves.

Although it wouldn't be dangerous if he saw her tears, she wiped her tears and decided not to cry anymore.

Tie Hongyan wrote something on the paper. Wu Xunsheng walked towards her with the poured water.

Tie Hongyan was not thirsty, but she did not wave at him again, nor did she tell him that she was not thirsty at all. Instead, she immediately took the water he had poured from her hand and drank it all. It seemed that by drinking this glass of water, she could swallow back the remaining tears at the same time. After she finished drinking, she put the glass on the table next to her.

Although Wu Xunsheng deliberately kept a distance from her even when he handed her the water so as not to be too close to her, he could still see that her eyes were different from before he poured the water for her.

He felt like she had been crying just now and wanted to get closer to take a look at her, but he was afraid that if he got too close to her she would pay attention to her lips, so he didn't get close to look at her.

Just as Wu Xunsheng was about to speak, Tie Hongyan handed him the paper with words on it.

When Wu Xunsheng lowered his head to read the words, Tie Hongyan wiped her eyes with her hands, as if she was just rubbing her eyes. She knew that even if he knew that she had just cried, it would not affect her safety, but she still hoped to wipe away her tears.

After reading those words, Wu Xunsheng said, "You already know everything... Actually..." He said halfway and was thinking about what to say next to make her feel better. He knew that she didn't want to trouble others.

It turned out that Tie Hongyan told him through writing that she already knew that he had previously endured the pain of her soul-purifying energy being sucked away by the wooden stick by using the transmission skill.

Wu Xunsheng continued, "In fact, the process is not as painful as you think. It's nothing."

When Tie Hongyan heard him say this, she remembered his screams of pain that she had heard during the previous ritual, and her heart tightened again.

She began writing on another piece of paper.

Wu Xunsheng watched her write, but he was not very close to her, so he could not see what she wrote while she was writing.
