Chapter 981 (Nine Hundred and Eighty-One) Traces
"It's just in time. If you can see it, it's just in time." Tie Hongyan said.
Wu Xunsheng asked: "Before I came in, except for the acting clan leader, no one else had entered this meeting hall, right?"
Tie Hongyan said: "No."
Wu Xunsheng asked again: "This pot and this glass of water have never been moved anywhere else. They have always been on this cabinet?"
"Yes." Tie Hongyan said.
Wu Xunsheng then asked: "When the acting patriarch poured water today, it was still like every time, not a drop of water splashed out?"
Tie Hongyan said: "That's right. There was a time when I played tricks when pouring water. Didn't you still joke about my amazing skills? Today I didn't play tricks. I just poured it normally."
"Haha, you did some tricks when you poured water that time, and not even a drop of water splashed out. It's really amazing. Martial arts is also very fun to use here." Wu Xunsheng said, "If you pour water occasionally today, This fish’s life is not that good either.”
"What are you thinking? You want this fish to be alive so much that you even assume that I will spill it once in a while today." Tie Hongyan said. Having said this, Tie Hongyan suddenly thought: Could it be that his asking these questions was related to the sight of the half-dry white paper on the table?
“I think this fish has a good life, and it just so happens that you are a person who never spills water.” Wu Xunsheng said, “If it really spills, will you quickly get something to wipe it up? Do it?”
Tie Hongyan said: "It's possible. What exactly do you want to say? Just say it."
Wu Xunsheng felt that she seemed to have heard something, so he didn't want to hide it anymore and asked: "There is no cloth in this room. If water spills, will you use the writing paper to wipe it dry?" Tie Hongyan Answer: "If you want to dry yourself immediately, naturally use whatever is convenient for you to suck on."
Wu Xunsheng mustered up his courage, pointed to the white paper on the table and said: "Before, there was only the acting patriarch in the room. This pot and this glass of water have always been on this cabinet untouched, and the water has never been spilled. There is no need to use anything to wipe it. I looked at the other places in the room and there is nothing to hold water, but the white paper has not dried yet..." Although he had summoned the courage before, he said this. At that time, I still didn’t know what to say next, so I didn’t continue immediately.
Tie Hongyan didn't answer, but just looked at him, waiting for him to finish what he said.
Wu Xunsheng finally asked: "Clan Chief, please forgive me for asking directly, what's wrong with you? Why...are you crying here alone?"
Tie Hongyan did not answer directly, but asked: "Why did you say I cried?"
Wu Xunsheng said: "It's obvious...the paper hasn't dried yet."
Tie Hongyan said: "So you think that piece of paper absorbs tears? Why don't you think that I came in after washing my hands outside, pressed the piece of paper with my hand, and dried my hands?"
Wu Xunsheng said: "If Patriarch Dai had not cried before, there would be no traces of crying in his eyes. Of course I would not be sure just because the piece of paper was not dry, so I had been observing Patriarch Dai carefully just now. "
Although Tie Hongyan didn't want him to know that she had cried before, she had never denied that she had cried since he entered the meeting hall until now. She knew very well that if he was sure that she cried but she still denied it, it would be a cover-up. At this moment, she felt that there might be traces of her crying that he could see.
