Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 333: Testing the Medicine

"He doesn't seem like the kind of person who thinks so much, at least he doesn't look like that. As for why I've been keeping him around...what else can I do if I don't do it? To be honest, I like Wu Xunsheng very much. I've liked him since he was a child. This kid has the ability to do the tasks I give him well, and he's sensible. However, liking him is liking him, and I can't let my emotions get the better of me. People in my position must be ruthless and have the guts to do things. You don't have to worry too much. Some things just have a price. If you're going to do it, just do it quickly. Why think so much? Thinking too much can easily make you indecisive, and it will weaken your momentum. As long as you don't say it and I don't say it, how can he know the truth? Unless he can still think after he dies." Tie Wandao's expression changed from indifference to coldness, and then to gloomy.

"Yes, what the clan leader said is very true. I shouldn't think too much. I just hope Wu Xunsheng and the young clan leader can get closer." Xiang Sibin said respectfully.

"There's no need to rush their relationship. It's still a long way from that time anyway, and there's plenty of time. Besides, things like their relationship can't be rushed. If I try to bring them together too early and force things, it will be difficult to deal with the children's disgust. If it causes the parties involved to doubt my motives, that's even more wrong. We can only let it develop. If by that day their relationship is not that close, it's not too late to use force. Wu Xunsheng is in Tiecang Court anyway, and he will be powerless to resist no matter what. The same goes for the young clan leader. How can she control what I want? Besides, it's for her own good. Afterwards, she will naturally understand my good intentions." Tie Wandao's expression changed from gloomy to cold, and then back to indifference.

Xiang Sibin thought about what Tie Wandao said and said, "Yes! The clan leader is wise!"

Half an hour later, Tie Wandao appeared in Wu Xunsheng's sparring room and saw the swelling-reducing medicine on the table. He chatted with Wu Xunsheng about other things and then picked up the medicine and asked, "Is this medicine for swelling?"

"Yes."

"I need this for someone, and you happen to have it here, so I'll take it first. This is your reward." Tie Wandao said as he put the reward money on the table.

“Chief, just give the medicine to others and don’t pay for it.” Wu Xunsheng said.

"Haha! You are still the same. This reward is just a reward. It has nothing to do with me taking the medicine. You have performed well all along. This is a reward for you. Just take it!" Tie Wandao said with a smile.

"Thank you, Patriarch!" Wu Xunsheng said.

After Tie Wandao took the medicine, he asked someone to test it. The person who tested it reported that it was indeed a swelling-reducing medicine. Tie Wandao remembered that there was something he had not explained to Xiang Sibin, so he sent someone to call Xiang Sibin. After Tie Wandao explained what he wanted to say to Xiang Sibin, he mentioned the swelling-reducing medicine again. He took the tested medicine and said to Xiang Sibin, "This is the medicine that Wu Xunsheng gave to the young patriarch. My men have tested it and it is a swelling-reducing medicine. You don't have to doubt it now."

Xiang Sibin picked up the medicine and looked at it carefully: "Well, yes, it looks like an ordinary swelling medicine. It seems that I am too suspicious!"

"I told you, you think too much! Are you relieved now?" Tie Wandao said.

"Yes. Please trouble the clan leader to get the medicine for testing!"

"Actually, being suspicious is a good thing for you. You make me feel more at ease!"
