She thought that the matter with the Shen family should have been settled long ago.

She didn’t expect Jiang Rongrong to pester her again.

She threw a tantrum, disregarded Fanxing’s reputation, and accused her of being disloyal and unfilial. She did not hesitate to slander Fanxing and even wanted to sue Fanxing in court.

Wouldn’t it be good to end it like this?

Why were people so greedy?

She reached out to shake Fanxing’s hand, but someone grabbed her other hand before she could. As if seeing her reaching out to hold Fanxing’s other hand, he took it as well.

Xu Qingzhi, who had missed, was speechless.

Her lips twitched as she looked at Bo Jinchuan, but he didn’t even look at her.

This damn man.

He had clearly done it on purpose!

She was also trying to comfort her sister, okay?

He didn’t even allow her to touch his hand!

Xu Qingzhi’s hand froze on the spot, feeling awkward.

Shen Fanxing naturally saw it too. She wanted to pull her hand out, but Bo Jinchuan held it tightly.

Seeing how awkward Xu Qingzhi was, Sang Yu quickly reached out to hold her hand and pulled her back.

Xu Qingzhi was grateful to Sang Yu for helping her out, but the two of them suddenly held each other’s hands for no reason.

Sang Yu patted her hand gently to tell her not to take it to heart.

“Sister Qingzhi, if Baby comes out, can I be his godmother?”

To be honest, Shen Fanxing had been busy recently. Coupled with a domineering and possessive man, she didn’t spend much time with Xu Qingzhi.

When she wasn’t around, Sang Yu would come over to accompany her.

Her relationship with Sang Yu was considered good.

Sang Yu had always held back when it came to people. She never had any requests for others, not even when she needed help.

Even if he asked her to get a fruit or a glass of water, she wouldn’t tell him.

Now that she suddenly wanted to be his son’s godmother, the sun had risen.

“Of course,” Xu Qingzhi agreed without hesitation.

Sang Yu smiled and tightened her grip on Xu Qingzhi’s hand.

“Then I’ll hurry up and prepare my godson’s little golden bracelet. I must have everything!”

Perhaps it was because she thought of the cute little bracelet on the child’s hands and feet, but Xu Qingzhi beamed instantly.

“Okay, okay. Hurry up and give birth to a child with Bo Jinhang. I’ll prepare one for my nephew.”

Instantly, the gloomy atmosphere changed.

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have decided to spend the rest of their lives together, Shen Fanxing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Bo Jinchuan held her hands and squeezed them gently. His expression had darkened.

The abbot didn’t seem to be affected by Xu Qingzhi and Sang Yu at all. Faced with Shen Fanxing’s obvious accusation, he said calmly,

“This is your fate. There are some causes and consequences in this world. It’s fate that you’re destined to experience.”

Shen Fanxing stared at the abbot and said, “I don’t know what you mean by cause and effect. I don’t care about this. I just want to know who asked you to say those words to Jiang Rongrong back then? What did you say to her back then? Why was she so sure that between Shen Qianrou and me, Shen Qianrou is the person with the phoenix fate that you mentioned? Is there really a problem with her personal understanding? I don’t believe that things are that simple.”

The abbot sighed. “Smart people are used to thinking too much about simple things. Sometimes, things are that simple. I lived outside the mortal world and didn’t pursue fame or wealth. I lived my life to serve Buddha. Who told me to do that?”

Shen Fanxing closed her eyes slowly. Did he want her to believe that things were that simple?

“There’s only such a simple reason for me to believe that it’s about to destroy me. I’m really unwilling to accept it. Moreover, it’s such… illusory metaphysics… Heh… What’s the cause and effect…”

She sneered. Neither materialists nor idealists could believe such a reason.

What era was this? How could she believe such things with the education she had received?

Seeing her reaction, the abbot smiled and took a sip of tea.

“Patron, you only need to answer one more question for me to understand everything.”

Shen Fanxing looked up at him and asked, “What?”

“Patron, are you satisfied with everything you have now?”

The moment the abbot finished speaking, Shen Fanxing turned to look at the man beside her.

The answer was given in her heart.

Satisfaction.

She knew that if not for everything she had experienced, she wouldn’t have met Bo Jinchuan.

Even if she took a wrong step, she would never meet him.

She was satisfied.

With this man, she knew that she had the entire world.

Because he had promised her the rest of her life.

He wished her well for the rest of her life.

Seeing that she was silent for a while, the abbot smiled and stood up. He continued to twist the prayer beads in his hand one by one. When he touched 108 beads, he paused slightly and spun the beads one round before continuing to twist them.

What goes around comes around.

No one could think of being vicious or being kind.

Karma didn’t mean that others didn’t know.

“It’s hard to return to the nest. You have to continue on this path. There are too many greedy people in the world. You’ve blocked too many people’s path and cut off their desires. There will always be people who are unwilling. Remember to be careful.”

After a long while, Shen Fanxing stood up.

The abbot’s last words were advice for her.

But when had she ever been afraid?

“I understand. Thank you.”

Even though she hated the words he had said to Jiang Rongrong.

But no matter what she had experienced before, no matter how much pain she had suffered…

Bo Jinchuan was enough to offset all her grievances and suffering.

Everything she had done before was for the sake of meeting this man. She had no regrets.

“Amitabha.”

Xu Qingzhi and Sang Yu exchanged glances. They felt a sense of awe and fear towards this old man.

He seemed to be really resourceful. He was 100% accurate about Fanxing.

Metaphysics was really… mysterious.

However, Yue Xuan wanted to know more about himself.

After all, Fanxing was the precedent. What she said was true.

In the end, Xu Qingzhi couldn’t help but look at the abbot and say,

“Master, since we’re all here, why don’t you give us a reminder?”

Curiosity killed the dog!
