Chapter 974: Chapter 973: Were You Scared by Me?

Long Xinghe had finally finished making the Whirlwind Gun.

"This gun isn’t fatal, but if the user understands human acupuncture points, then its power will be very great. It can hold a hundred silver needles, enough to take down more than a dozen experts... Wuya, what’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell in the heart?"

While introducing the functions of the Whirlwind Gun, Long Xinghe looked up to see Feng Wuya’s brows tightly furrowed.

She immediately shoved the Whirlwind Gun casually into her pocket and went over to support Feng Wuya, "Is it your heart that’s uncomfortable? Does it hurt a lot? I will go find Ali!"

Long Xinghe helped him sit down in a chair and turned to leave.

But she hadn’t expected that as soon as she took a step, her wrist was grasped firmly by him.

Long Xinghe looked down and saw the large hand holding her wrist, a bit startled.

He always disliked physical contact with ladies.

Although she was as ugly as a ghost now, well, she was still a lady.

"Wuya..."

"I’m fine, it’s just... I’m feeling inexplicably uncomfortable, here." He covered the area where his heart was.

As soon as Long Xinghe saw this, she became even more anxious, "I will have Ali come look at you."

He had had heart surgery, and if his heart was feeling uncomfortable now, that was definitely not a trivial matter.

She feared there might be complications from the surgery.

But he did not let go.

"Wuya, please let go for now, I will be right back," Long Xinghe understood that a patient usually feels particularly insecure when their illness flares up.

He was holding onto her hand tightly, and she couldn’t bear to push him away.

After a moment’s thought, she could only turn towards the door, attempting to call for Jiang Tao.

But Feng Wuya stopped her, "I don’t want to see anyone right now."

"But..."

"I said, I don’t want to see anyone!" This time, Feng Wuya’s tone was more forceful.

Seeing that she was still anxiously looking at him, Feng Wuya’s voice finally softened, "I really am fine, it’s just... I am fine now."

It was just a moment ago, when he thought about her rushing to finish all her tasks before leaving, that he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Then..."

Long Xinghe continued to look down at the five fingers gripping her wrist.

Each knuckle was distinct, and they were as fair as jade, indescribably handsome.

If circumstances were different, being held by him, she would genuinely be happy.

Even though, she knew there was no future.

Feng Wuya knew where her question lay, and he himself had a myriad of questions too.

Why did he insist on holding onto her and not letting go?

But he himself did not know.

Long Xinghe, however, thought of a reason for him, "Don’t be afraid, just calm yourself, and your heart won’t be in pain."

Feng Wuya was slightly stunned, then looking into her worried eyes, he suddenly understood.

She thought he held onto her out of fear during his episode.

That was fine, at least there was no need for explanations.

He was never good at explaining himself.

"Don’t panic, let yourself calm down," Long Xinghe continued to reassure.

Feng Wuya looked up into her face.

That’s when Long Xinghe remembered, for convenience, she didn’t wear her veil in her room.

Now, the scars on her entire face were completely exposed to him.

For an instant, Long Xinghe felt ashamed and hardly dared to meet his gaze.

But then, she let it go.

She was this ugly to begin with, he had already seen her clearly, what else was there to cover up?

With that thought, her gaze became unabashed.

She said with a smile, "Are you scared by my face? If you dislike it, I can put on the veil."
