The wind swept through the courtyard, where withered leaves spun and fell, tumbling and fluttering in several circles before plunging into the small pond.
A ripple instantly spread across the calm surface of the water.
"Plop," a sound echoed.
Xie Xuanyi's fingertip gently touched down.
Jiang Huang closed her eyes, her body trembling slightly, but the chill in her Heart Lake did not spread further. After the touch of his fingertip, familiar warmth, like a spring breeze, brushed through her meridians, past her acupoints, and also smoothed out the lake in Jiang Huang's heart.
Confused, Jiang Huang slowly opened her eyes.
Xie Xuanyi did not retrieve that half drop of warm Undying Spring Water.
He merely tapped his forehead lightly.
Looking at the girl in front of him, twisted to extremes, he scoffed.
"Since I gave it to you, then keep it," he said.
Xie Xuanyi, with hands clasped behind his back, indifferently spoke, "In the future, such words, you should not say again."
