Chapter 470 Waiting
Wu Xunsheng’s straightforward words made Tie Hongyan feel a little strange, but she couldn’t ask, for fear that he would ask her other questions. So she just said, “So, let’s just pretend that what you said to me just now never happened! Let’s not let anyone except you and me know about everything that happened in the woods today, okay?” Tie Hongyan said.

Wu Xunsheng looked at her first, then deliberately waited for a moment before saying, “Okay.”

Tie Hongyan said: “Of course, I am not an ungrateful person. I was too excited just now. If you hadn’t stopped me in time, I would have practiced martial arts in other ways with the intention of dying. It was you who helped me get out of that state of collapse at the speed of enlightenment. You saved me again, and I have remembered it in my heart.”

“This… counts as saving you once? Then how many times have you saved me before? Let’s not count it like this anymore.” Wu Xunsheng said.

At this time, Tie Hongyan noticed that a large area of ​​Wu Xunsheng’s clothes shoulder was wet by her and had not yet dried, so she said, “I’m sorry, I wet your clothes. Go back and change into dry clothes.”

“Are you going to let me go back alone?” Wu Xunsheng asked, worried that she would do something dangerous again. Looking at her current state and listening to her words, he felt that she really would not seek death again, but he could never figure her out, and felt that he could not accurately guess what she would do next, so he looked a little nervous again.

“Oh, don’t worry, I won’t talk about life and death lightly anymore. My eyes are still a little red now, right?”

“Yes, they are a little red… I see. You are worried that after you come out of the woods, others will see your red eyes and ask you about what happened just now, right?”

“Yes, that’s the reason.” Tie Hongyan said with a smile.

“You’re going to stay in these woods until your eyes don’t look so red?”

“Yes.”

“So should I stay here too?”

Tie Hongyan looked at the wet spot on Wu Xunsheng’s shoulder caused by her tears and said, “But your clothes are wet in such a large area, you must be very uncomfortable.” “But if I go back alone and someone asks me why I came back first, and then asks me about my wet clothes, I won’t be able to explain it.”

“I have a way…”

Before Tie Hongyan could come up with his plan, Wu Xunsheng said, “No matter what plan you have, I can’t leave you here alone. It’s no big deal if your clothes get wet. The wind will dry them. There’s nothing to worry about.”

“So you’re going to continue staying in this woods with me?”

“When your eyes aren’t so red anymore and my clothes are dry, we’ll go back together. This way we won’t be easily exposed and arouse suspicion from others, and I won’t be asked questions like why I went back first.” Wu Xunsheng replied.

“Okay then. I want to sit for a while, you should sit down too.” After saying that, Tie Hongyan sat under a tree, leaned against the trunk and looked up at the sky.

Wu Xunsheng sat down near her, with his back against the trunk of another tree. He first looked at her, then looked at the sky she was looking at, and finally leaned his head against the trunk, looking straight ahead, watching her with his peripheral vision.

Tie Hongyan looked at him and continued to look up at the sky.

The two of them remained silent for a long time without saying a word.
