Chapter 706 (Seven Hundred and Six) Pain
Tie Hongyan felt that this was Wang Zaiqian’s voice. She thought: If it was Wang Zaiqian, the person listening to him was probably Wu Xunsheng, right? If it was really him, I wouldn't go there; even if it wasn't him and the other two people were sitting there, it would be an intrusion for me to go there, forget it, I won't go there to watch the stars.
The moment she turned around, she heard footsteps again. This time the footsteps told her that the person was walking towards where she was standing. However, the footsteps soon disappeared - the man apparently stopped suddenly while walking.
Tie Hongyan had just started to walk back when a severe headache suddenly hit her. The pain made her unable to stand still. She squatted down straight, pressing her head hard with one hand and holding the ground with the other. The hand touching the ground was still shaking. Unable to hold on, she sat on the ground and closed her eyes tightly. As she squatted down, she touched the plants around her, making an obvious noise without her realizing it.
"Clan Leader, what's wrong with you?" Someone's voice sounded from behind her. The speaker quickly moved in front of her as he spoke.
Tie Hongyan was so painful that sweat broke out on his forehead. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the person in front of him was Wu Xunsheng.
Wu Xunsheng also already knew that she was appointed as the acting patriarch of Tiewan Dao Retreat, so he also changed his name to call her "acting patriarch".
"Headache again?" he asked.
She said "Yeah" and then said softly "It's okay" and tried to stand up quickly, but the pain was too much and she couldn't exert any strength.
He supported her and helped her stand up.
She wanted to go to one of the benches and sit down quickly, so he helped her walk over.
She sat on the bench, still pressing her head hard with one hand, and holding the bench with the other hand to support herself. The hand holding the bench trembled, as if she could not support herself.
He stood next to her and supported her, helping her support herself.
There was no place to lean on the bench, and even though he was holding her up, she was still swaying in pain, looking like she was going to fall there at any moment. When Wu Xun Sheng saw this, he immediately sat next to her and let her lean against him - just like the time when she fell ill due to excessive martial arts practice when she was a child.
She closed her eyes again and rested quietly. The pain subsided slightly and she opened her eyes again.
"Are you feeling better?" Wu Xunsheng asked.
She said "Yeah" again. Although her headache was not as severe as before, it was still painful.
He could see that she still had a headache, so he said to her: "Clan Leader, think of something else, something nice, to divert your attention, and try to see if you can feel better."
She said softly: "I was trying to think of something else... The person who went to get water was Wang Zaiqian, right?"
He replied: "Yes. You just heard it."
"Well. What should I think about next? What is the most effective thing to think about?" Tie Hongyan said.
In order to alleviate her uncomfortable feeling by diverting her attention, Wu Xunsheng suddenly pointed to the sky and said: "The stars in the sky are so bright today! It's a good time to watch the stars. It would be a pity to miss it. Look at the stars in the sky!" Have you ever heard the story about the stars?"
Before she came out, she wanted to cry. She felt that it had been a long time since she had seen the stars. She suddenly wanted to see them, so she came here specifically to see the stars. At this moment, she suddenly heard him talking about looking at the stars and mentioning stories about the stars. She looked at the sky and looked at the bright stars, and tears burst out of her eyes.
