Chapter 922: Close Your Eyes for a Moment
Then she handed a refined medicine pill to Xiao Xue: "Here, give this to Brother Lianwu."
Xiao Xue stared wide-eyed at Ning Shiqi, then carefully placed the medicine pill in her palm. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Is there anything else I need to be careful about?"
This should be the correct way to ask, Xiao Xue remembered whenever An’an’s mother tended to someone’s injury, they would always ask this.
Ning Shiqi shook his head with a smile: "That’s all, hurry up and go, the sooner he takes it, the less pain he has to suffer."
Lianwu would understand as soon as he takes the medicine pill, there’s no need for explanations.
This is Xiao Xue’s heartfelt intention towards him, surely, he can feel it.
"Great! I’m going right now!" Xiao Xue eagerly grasped the medicine pill and sincerely thanked Ning Shiqi: "Thank you so much, Uncle Shiqi!"
Then she hopped out.
Just as she ran to Lianwu’s room door, she was called by Han Jing: "Xiao Xue, you’re awake? I was just about to wake you up. Are you hungry? Come here and wait, I’ll check if the meal is ready; don’t disturb Lianwu’s rest."
Xiao Xue paused, glanced back at Han Jing, and said: "Mother, go check whether the meal is done first. I need to say a few words to Brother Lianwu, I’ll be right there. Brother Lianwu just woke up, I, I need to pour him some water."
As Xiao Xue said this, she pushed open the door and went inside, taking great care to close the door properly.
Han Jing stared, mouth agape, at Xiao Xue who had already run inside and closed the door. Did she hear correctly? That little girl said she wanted to pour water for Lianwu?
Han Jing shook her head, wondering why her precious daughter never showed such diligence towards her.
Han Jing didn’t go over, she turned around and headed toward the kitchen.
Xiao Xue ran to the bedside, Lianwu hadn’t fallen asleep. The Soul Devouring Talisman flared up at least seven or eight hours a day. When it’s not active, he’s basically completely exhausted and unconscious, and when it is, there’s no way he could sleep.
Xiao Xue clutched the medicine pill in her palm, standing by the bedside, staring at Lianwu, how could she let Brother Lianwu swallow the medicine pill without him noticing?
Lianwu saw Xiao Xue standing by his bed and didn’t speak, tolerating the pain and forcing a smile at her: "What’s wrong?"
Xiao Xue shook her head.
Lianwu found it strange, though he was in such pain he was almost passing out, speaking was very strenuous. Nonetheless, he looked at Xiao Xue worriedly, mustered enough strength, and asked again: "Did something happen to make you unhappy?"
Xiao Xue continued to shake her head.
Then she kicked off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, sitting beside Lianwu.
Lianwu didn’t understand, the little girl obviously had something on her mind, yet she wouldn’t say. He really didn’t have any strength to comfort her, so he was a bit worried.
Xiao Xue stared at him for a moment, then suddenly climbed onto him.
Xiao Xue was still a child, weight... very light.
But right now Lianwu was in such excruciating pain, feeling as if his body would break apart any moment, so when Xiao Xue suddenly climbed onto him, it almost became unbearable; he was seeing stars.
Of course, there was no expression on his face, he didn’t want her to see how much he was suffering.
Xiao Xue lay on top of Lianwu, her big eyes looking at him, and said: "Brother Lianwu, close your eyes for a moment."
