[Dual male leads, not male-oriented, highlighted!]
In order to revitalize the Taoist temple left by his master, Qi Gu entered the entertainment industry and worked hard to operate.
But ...
Chapter 250 Wedding Banquet
The yellowed letter paper was thin and brittle. Lin Hanzhi didn't dare to use force when holding the letter paper for fear of damaging it, but her fingertips trembled uncontrollably.
Suddenly, a small piece of paper fluttered to the ground as he moved.
The path was paved with bluestone slabs, which had long been soaked by rain. If a piece of paper fell on it, the words would inevitably be blurred. Lin Hanzhi quickly picked it up and subconsciously lowered his eyes to look at the content on it, but was shocked as if struck by lightning.
On the small black and white cardboard was a familiar young boy's face. The cheek contour and facial features of that face are extremely similar to Lin Hanzhi's. No matter who sees it, they can see that the person in the photo must have some blood relationship with Lin Hanzhi.
Lin Hanzhi's breathing became rapid in the rain, and he instinctively moved closer to Qi Gu.
Qi Gu held the umbrella in one hand and put his other arm around Lin Hanzhi's waist. He lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Is that your father in the photo? You two look quite similar."
"Ma Shenpo must have left this photo specially for you."
Lin Hanzhi responded softly in his throat, "Others say the same thing."
His appearance combines the best qualities of both his parents, and one can tell at a glance who his father is, as if he has his own anti-counterfeiting mark. This is not a bad thing, but in the Alien Management Bureau, there are too many people who know them, and too many people know about this matter.
So much so that whenever his parents' acquaintances saw him, they would naturally express regret and grief.
Lin Hanzhi's emotions were always affected and she became depressed.
Qi Gu suddenly pushed Lin Hanzhi's elbow and said, "This is the first time my uncle and I have officially met. Should I show some respect?"
Lin Hanzhi wanted to say that they were all scared to death, and they would not be able to get it even if he burned gold and silver, but the words turned over several times between his lips and teeth, and finally he did not say it.
He said, "Okay."
The two of them searched the falling raindrops with their eyes and saw a pavilion not far away that could shelter them from the rain, so they walked towards it at the same time.
Soon, Qi Gu put the black umbrella aside, respectfully placed the photo of Lin's father in front of the vermilion railing of the pavilion, and stood in front of the photo side by side with Lin Hanzhi.
There were folded gold and silver ingots and yellow paper in the purple gold gourd. Qi Gu took out one set, then another, without stopping. He only stopped when there was almost no place to step in the small hexagonal pavilion. He felt as nervous as if he was meeting his parents for the first time.
Qi Gu looked at Lin Hanzhi, waiting for him to take the initiative and introduce themselves to both parties.
Lin Hanzhi, who was always eloquent in front of him, opened her mouth and then closed it again. For a moment, she didn't know where to start or what tone to use.
He had been without a father for too long.
They were once the closest blood relatives, but they have been separated by life and death for nearly twenty years. Twenty years is enough for the once close father and son to become speechless and not know how to start a conversation.
"Dad..." Lin Hanzhi called out. After he said it with difficulty, the rest became much easier. He looked at Qi Gu beside him and held his hand tightly. "This is Qi Gu, the love of my life. I'll bring him to you to burn some incense and let you meet him. Mom's photo is not at hand, so please tell her for us first. When we get home, I'll formally introduce him to Mom and other family members."
"Uncle, we are very good and love each other. Don't worry, I'm here with you." Qi Gu said briefly, but his almond eyes were firm.
After saying this, Qi Gu used the spiritual fire on his fingertips to ignite the offering on the ground. The flames licked the tin foil and quickly turned it into a handful of ashes. The flames only burned on the offering from beginning to end and did not touch the wooden railings at all.
Soon, everything was burned out. In the photo, the teenage Lin's father was watching quietly, and at a certain moment, the corners of his mouth seemed to slightly rise.
Lin Hanzhi went back to Ma Shenpo's house and borrowed a broom and dustpan, cleaned up the ashes in the pavilion, and then returned to the hotel with Qi Gu.
Along the way, he was still not in a very good mood. When he lowered his eyes, his peach blossom eyes were sharp, like a lonely ghost wandering in the rain.
Qi Gu couldn't bear to see him like this, so he tentatively touched the back of Lin Hanzhi's hand with his fingertips. Lin Hanzhi came back to his senses and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Qi Gu raised his palm upwards in front of him.
Lin Hanzhi was stunned for a second, then put his hand on it and clasped his fingers together.
In the cold rain, everything was cold. The breeze mixed with fine raindrops passed through the barrier created by the umbrella and fell on the face, making the skin stiff and cold.
In fact, before this, Lin Hanzhi had been walking alone for a long time and didn't feel cold.
It was not until his palms were tightly pressed against Qi Gu's and he felt the constant warmth coming from Qi Gu's body that he finally realized that he had always been cold.
Only at this moment did he feel warm.
He subconsciously wanted to hold his hands tighter, but he realized in advance that Qi Gu was holding his hands tighter than him.
At that moment, the heart beat rapidly, pumping blood through all parts of the body, making the whole body filled with Qi Gu's warmth. Lin Hanzhi also clasped her hands tightly, and thus felt Qi Gu's warmth even more.
He asked, "There should be a snack street nearby, do you want to go shopping?"
Qi Gu rarely refused the food: "Now I want to be alone with you."
He could feel that Lin Hanzhi was affected by the letters and photos and was in a low mood. He suggested going to the snack street because he was afraid that he would feel bored, but Qi Gu just wanted to make Lin Hanzhi feel better at this moment.
Just at this moment, a young couple came over in the gray rain curtain on the opposite side. The girl hugged the boy's waist and rested her head on his shoulder. The boy held an umbrella and used his other hand to hug the girl. It was a very affectionate way of hugging.
Just now, Qi Gu was also hugged by Lin Hanzhi around the waist, but they were not so close and sticky. It was as if the two of them were two pieces of glutinous rice balls that had to be sold together, and they had to stick close to each other to keep each other intact.
Qi Gu blinked and struggled to move his fingertips. Lin Hanzhi lowered his eyes to look at him, "Hmm?"
Qi Gu leaned close to his ear, feeling a little embarrassed to imitate other young couples hugging, so he whispered: "Let's do that too...it should be warmer."
The change of positions was completed almost instantly because both of them couldn't wait.
Thus, on the misty and rainy street, a pair of young lovers who were so infatuated with each other that they were dying of indifference were born.
They are sticky and look like conjoined twins, or like two pieces of brown sugar glutinous rice balls.

After returning to Province Z, the two stuck together and met the elders together in the Lin family's ancestral hall.
Then came the wedding date on the invitation that Fang Yuanwang had sent earlier. Naturally, those who received the invitation included Mu Xingchen, Miao Yue, Pubugesang and others, and even the weasel was included.
However, because the weasel was busy expanding his fried chicken business, he had to give up the banquet and postpone the wedding reception.
At night, the city is bustling with traffic and brightly lit.
A group of people got in a business car and headed to Fang's house.
Mu Xingchen spoke first: "It hasn't been long since Teacher Fang found a wife. It shows that he really loves her, which is why he wants to get married so soon."
Phub Gesang said: "The banquet should be packaged... I wonder if you can give me a few more bags of wedding candy."
He is now at the age when he loves to eat sweets.
Miao Yue: "The wedding venue should be very beautiful and will definitely be very photogenic. I wonder if the rental fee is expensive."
The three of them all spoke their own words, and there was no dull moment.
