Chapter 2878 (Two Thousand Eight Hundred and Seventy-Eight) No
"Yes, clan leader." Li Pingrun said. He immediately looked at Tie Wandao. As soon as his eyes came into contact with Tie Wandao, he turned his head again to prevent his eyes from meeting Tie Wandao.
Tie Wandao said: "What are you hiding from?"
Li Pingrun turned his head back, but he still didn't dare to look into Tie Wandao's eyes, so he lowered his head slightly and said, "Sorry, clan leader!"
"What are you sorry for?" Tie Wandao said, "Let me ask you, are what you just told me true?"
Li Pingrun immediately nodded and said: "Yes!"
He thought: Did the patriarch suspect me? Yes, my behavior is too strange. It’s only strange that he doesn’t doubt me! Why did I let him see it just now? But it’s really hard for me to control it. I have to stop. I don’t want to continue to do those things...
Tie Wandao said: "Why are you lowering your head? Are you afraid to look at me?"
Li Pingrun said: "I feel sorry for the clan leader, so I lower my head. It's not that I don't dare to look."
Tie Wandao said: "I'm sorry? Could it be because there was something untrue in what you just told me?"
"No!" Li Pingrun said, "Definitely not. Everything I said to the clan leader is true."
"Then why don't you dare to look at me now?" Tie Wandao asked again.
Li Pingrun thought: We must look at the patriarch! must! Don't piss him off, don't piss him off!
Li Pingrun then raised his head and looked at Tie Wandao.
Tie Wandao said: "Why are you still frowning? Didn't you just say that you were thinking about things related to the practice? Are you still thinking about it now?"
"I..." Li Pingrun didn't know how to answer. Before he said anything, he forced his brows to relax. However, with his eyebrows raised, his expression looked even more unnatural.
"To be honest, in my impression, you are a person who loves to tell the truth." Tie Wandao said.
Before he finished speaking, Li Pingrun nodded quickly.
Tie Wandao continued: "Logically speaking, I don't need to doubt you, but your expression now makes me suspicious."
Li Pingrun said: "Chief, what I told is the truth. No matter what my expression is, I have never told you a lie."
"Then you are planning to tell lies to me, haven't you said it yet?" Tie Wandao asked.
"No, clan leader!" Li Pingrun said, "I have no intention of telling lies to you."
Tie Wandao said: "Did that mean you said something you didn't want to say?"
Li Pingrun didn't know what to say.
"Did I guess it?" Tie Wandao said, "Actually, it's not new. Even if some people don't want to say anything to me, they have to say it in front of me because I am the clan leader. In fact, it's okay to talk. Sometimes I want a person to do something, but that person has to do it even if he doesn’t want to.”
In fact, Tie Wandao just mentioned this phenomenon, and did not say that Li Pingrun had to do something even if he didn't want to do it. However, when Li Pingrun heard these words, the meaning changed.
Li Pingrun felt a little more fearful and thought: The patriarch sees that I don't want to do it but he has to do it? How did he figure it out? Was he going to punish me for finding out? I haven't said anything or done anything outrageous, right? The patriarch shouldn't punish me immediately just because he thinks I'm like this, right? Don't do this!
Tie Wandao looked at Li Pingrun with sharp eyes.
