Chapter 2950 (Two Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty) No Need
Tie Hongyan said, “I also find it strange. Wu Xunsheng reminded me to be careful before. I thought at the time that if there was any danger on our side, Li Fangshi might be able to avoid the danger if he stayed over there.”

Tie Jinjue said: “You didn’t agree to him directly this time?”

“No.” Tie Hongyan said.

“Then what did you tell him?” Tie Jinjue asked.

Tie Hongyan said: “I asked him: ‘Why do you want to stay over there? Will there be any problems here?'”

Tie Jinjue said, “I believe he has already noticed that you think he is strange. It is quite appropriate for you to ask this question now. Did he tell you why he stayed there?”

Tie Hongyan said: “He didn’t explain immediately, as if he was thinking about something. I waited for him for a while, and then he didn’t explain to me, and suddenly said: ‘There is no problem here’, and then told me that he didn’t need to stay there.”

“He said he wanted to go there before, but now that you asked him this, he decided not to go there?” Tie Jinjue asked, “Is it because he can actually go anywhere, or did he not think of a way to stay where he is at first, but figured it out later?”

Tie Hongyan said: “I don’t know either. I later guessed that he seemed to be fine with being anywhere, he just wanted to stay away from us. Of course, he might have other reasons, but I didn’t think of it.”

“What did you say?” Tie Jinjue asked.

“I asked him why he didn’t need it anymore.” Tie Hongyan said.

“How did he answer?” Tie Jinjue asked again.

Tie Hongyan said, “Li Fangshi replied, ‘If I go over there, it will be hard for the young clan leader and the young clan hero to feel at ease…’ Then he said, ‘It’s fine here, I’ll stay here, we’ll all stay in this area.’ He also said that no matter whether Wu Xunsheng and I would feel uneasy because he stood over there, he would not go over there. He also said that he just suddenly wanted to go over there to rest, and it was not necessary.” “Maybe it’s just as you guessed, he really just wants to stay away from you? I hope so!” Tie Jinjue said, “Did you continue to ask him?”

“I didn’t ask any more questions.” Tie Hongyan said, “I just told him to rest first. Of course, he was so strange, so I was definitely very careful. I kept observing his actions while he was resting.”

“Did he really not go anywhere else?” Tie Jinjue asked again.

“Yes.” Tie Hongyan said, “I really didn’t go anywhere else.”

Tie Jinjue said, “When he was resting in the same place, did you think his expression was normal?”

“He turned his back, so I couldn’t see his expression.” Tie Hongyan replied.

“What are you doing with your back turned?” Tie Jinjue asked.

“I saw that when he turned his back, he seemed to be looking at the table with his head down.” Tie Hongyan replied.

“What was Wu Xunsheng’s reaction when you were waiting for him to rest?” Tie Jinjue asked.

Tie Hongyan said: “Wu Xunsheng looked at me and asked me if I had paused. I nodded. He asked me: ‘Any questions?’ I used hand gestures, added facial expressions and mouth shapes to ‘tell’ Wu Xunsheng what was going on, letting him know that Li Fangshi needed to take a break. He pointed at Li Fangshi’s back and said: ‘Rest?’ I looked at him and nodded repeatedly, and then he nodded to me. He winked at me again and shaped the words ‘be careful’ with his mouth. I knew what he meant, and nodded and shaped the words ‘be careful’ with my mouth as well.”
