Bab 272: You are lying

Gao Lan Mei's head immediately turns at him when she hears him groan. She sits up to check on him fully.

"What is it? Is your stomach still painful?" She asked worriedly, as she urgently coats her palm with spiritual energy, reaching for the part on his stomach that she had hit earlier, trying to ease his pain.

Her concern warms Wei Jiayi's heart and it helps him get over with the sharp uncomfortable feeling that he suddenly got from his brain to his spine.

He reaches for her hand to hold,  and places it on his head instead. "A little here. Not the stomach. It is nothing, really. There, all good." he says after a while, placing her hand down and tucking her back inside. 

Wei Jiayi hopes he did not feel another one of those pains from earlier as that'll mean that he really needs to leave very badly.  That makes him wonder why he is not numb to it yet.
