Chapter 1840 [Shangxie] I'm fine
No one answered him. The green curtain had already dropped, hiding Xia Fuyi's back.
Then came Li Chi's cold command from inside.
"To the next town."
Lian Tang responded sullenly, and the carriage continued to roll forward.

The early winter wind blew the curtains on both sides, and the sunlight filtered through the gaps, outlining the man's chin in a pale and delicate manner. In Xia Fuyi's eyes, the lines were so beautiful that it was heart-wrenching.
The charming Mr. Li was drinking tea with his head down, his lips touching the edge of the warm jade cup, and his voice was as warm and cool as jade.
"Lie down and rest for a while."
He said to Xia Fuyi without even raising his head.
The girl in white, who had been sitting cross-legged blankly since she came in, shook her head when she heard this.
"No, I'm really fine."
Li Chi paused while drinking tea, put down the teacup, and looked up at Xia Fuyi.
That gaze was buried in the gradually dimming light, with an ambiguous darkness.
Xia Fuyi was a little confused for a moment, but then her body suddenly stiffened when the man suddenly leaned closer. She didn't dare to move and let the exquisite and cold silver mask gradually enlarge in her pupils until it was almost close to her face. The amber pupils were right in front of her, and she could even see her own appearance clearly in them.
Li Chi stared at her quietly, but without even looking, he touched her philtrum with his hand, wiped it lightly, and then returned it to its original position.
There was a strange and rich medicinal fragrance that suddenly faded away. When Xia Fuyi saw those eyes disappear from her sight, she almost couldn't help but reach out to hold them back, but before she could reach out her hand, Li Chi had already raised his hand first.
It was a slender and pale finger, which looked even colder because it was stained with sticky scarlet blood.
Li Chi raised his finger and said to Xia Fuyi,
"If you keep bleeding like this, you'll probably bleed to death. Do you think you're okay?"
Xia Fuyi was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw a bloody scene.
As he lowered his head, another drop of sticky scarlet blood fell on his collar.
The girl was silent for a moment, then reached out her hand expressionlessly, about to wipe her nose with her sleeve, but a hand stopped her halfway.
Xia Fuyi looked along the hand holding hers, and saw Li Chizheng handing her a handkerchief.
"Wipe it with this."
Xia Fuyi took the handkerchief and covered her nose with it, her voice buried in the handkerchief, and she said in a muffled and cold voice,
"If you're hit by the red frost, you'll vomit blood or have a nosebleed, but other than that, there's nothing else."
This time she didn't look at Li Chi, but just stared at the curtain that kept rising and falling and repeated,
"I'm fine."
Li Chi then stopped talking.
He leaned against the car wall and closed his eyes, as if preparing to rest.
Xia Fuyi looked at him for a while, then quietly covered her nose and tried to get up and get out of the carriage. However, as soon as she raised her body, someone grabbed her sleeve.
She stiffened her body and looked down. Li Chi, who she thought was asleep, was grabbing her sleeve. His eyes were still closed, and there was no other sound except for his faint breathing.
Xia Fuyi remained stiffly in the posture of getting up for a while. After a while, she tried to pull her sleeve out of the man's hand, but failed for a long time.
Xia Fuyi had no choice but to sit down.
The sound of the carriage wheels became particularly hypnotic in such a quiet environment, and Xia Fuyi began to feel drowsy while covering her nose.
The pain comes in waves, sometimes it seems to come from every inch of the bones, and sometimes it seems to be twisting in the internal organs.
