Jingchen narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh, okay. I want to invite Miss Li to visit the Taoist temple again. I didn't treat her well last time. Can you tell her to come and see when she has time to come?"
Wenxuan's eyes lit up. He had been unable to go down the mountain due to being under house arrest, so he had never been able to see Sister Li. He had never expected that the opportunity to meet her would come so naturally. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, Uncle Master, I'll send her a message right now!"
Jingchen hummed, looked away, and said nothing more.
Wenxuan took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened WeChat, clicked on the chat interface with Li Shu, tapped the screen with his fingers, and sent her a message.
[Sister Li, are you home yet? ]
After a few minutes, Li Shu replied.
【Just arrived, what's wrong? 】
Wenxuan's lips curled up slightly. "Master Jingchen wants to invite you to visit our Taoist temple again. Sister Li, when are you free to come over?"
Li Shu asked: [Master Jingchen, do you have something to talk to me about?]
Wenxuan: [I don't know either. My uncle just told me to tell you this. I'll ask him.]
Li Shu: [Yes.]
Wenxuan raised his head and looked at Jingchen, and asked, "Uncle Master, Sister Li asked me to ask you, is there something you want to talk to her about?"
Jingchen raised his eyebrows slightly, "No, I just felt that I had a good relationship with her, so I invited her over to exchange ideas and learn some things from her."
Wenxuan nodded and conveyed Jingchen's words to Li Shu on the other end of the phone.
[Sister Li, are you free to come over? ]
Li Shu: [I'll come over tomorrow morning.]
Wenxuan's face lit up with joy. "Okay, send me a message when you arrive and I'll pick you up at the door!"
Li Shu: [Yes, okay.]
Wenxuan sent her an emoji in reply, then raised his eyes to look at Jingchen who was sitting there again, and said in an excited voice, "Uncle Master, Sister Li agreed. She will come over tomorrow morning!"
"Okay, I understand." Jingchen stroked the wall of the cup with his fingers. "I don't have anything else to do here. Wenxuan, go and do your own thing."
"Okay, uncle." Wenxuan said and then retreated.
…
On the other side, Li Shu and Ji Yanli returned to the Ji family.
As soon as Li Shu stepped into the hall, she saw Little Coal Ball running towards her.
Her expression softened instantly, and she squatted down and picked up the little coal ball from the ground.
Little Coal Ball meowed twice at Li Shu, and then kept rubbing her with its black head.
"Missed me?" Li Shu curled the corners of her lips and raised her hand to touch its head.
Little Coal Ball meowed again, as if responding to her.
"Let me hug you." Ji Yanli said.
Li Shu hummed and handed him the small coal ball in her arms, "Here, second brother."
Ji Yanli reached out to take it and began to roll up the small coal ball in his arms.
At this time, Butler Ji walked in from outside, followed by a young man.
“Miss, Second Young Master, Young Master Shen is here.”
Hearing this, Li Shu turned around and looked behind her, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
"I just happened to be here, so I came straight over." Shen Yu walked up to her and stopped.
As soon as he finished speaking, the little coal ball that had been staying obediently in Ji Yanli's arms suddenly struggled to get off.
Seeing this, Ji Yanli bent down and immediately put it down.
The little coal ball meowed, walked to Shen Yu's feet, then fell to the ground, turned over, and exposed his belly.
Chen Yu chuckled, squatted down, and stroked its soft belly.
Little Coal Ball cried out again with satisfaction.
Ji Yanli smiled and shook his head, then said, "Go sit on the sofa."
Shen Yu hummed, picked up the little coal ball from the ground and held it in his arms, then walked to the sofa side by side with Li Shu.
After sitting down on the sofa, Shen Yu placed the small coal ball on his legs, then turned his head to look at the girl next to him, "The matter of the flesh-and-blood Buddha of Yanling Temple is very popular on the Internet now."
Li Shu nodded, "I know, I got it."
"Those flesh-and-blood Buddhas have all changed their appearances, and even revealed the truth about how they were shaped. Was it you who did it?" Shen Yu asked.
Li Shu hummed, then slowly said, "This kind of temple has no reason to exist. The lower-level disciples are all victims. If the perpetrators simply pass away, it won't change anything. Exposing the truth to the public is the most important thing."
She paused, then added, "Besides, I don't need to do anything. Everyone can guess what's going on just by looking at it. As long as those disciples are not stupid, their first reaction should be to leave Word Spirit Temple."
"Indeed." Chen Yu responded, "The Yanling Temple is deserted."
Li Shu's beautiful eyebrows raised slightly, "This is faster than I expected, but this is exactly what I want to see."
Shen Yu hummed, then started talking about other things.
…
The next day.
Li Shu came to Baiyun Temple again as agreed.
She stopped at the main entrance of the Taoist temple, took out her cell phone and sent Wenxuan a message that she had arrived.
After receiving the message, Wenxuan said that he would come right away and asked her to wait a moment.
Li Shu glanced at the message, turned off the screen of her phone and put it back in her pocket, then stood aside waiting for Wenxuan to come over.
After a while, Wenxuan's figure walked over from not far away.
"Hey, Sister Li, here!"
Hearing this, Li Shu looked forward and nodded slightly, "Long time no see."
"Yes, Sister Li, I haven't seen you since the last time you came to our Taoist temple." Wenxuan said with a smile: "If I hadn't been grounded and couldn't go down the mountain, I would have come to play with you a long time ago."
Li Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, "When will your house arrest be lifted?"
Wenxuan touched the back of his head and said, "I'm not sure about this... Master hasn't said anything yet."
He paused, then suddenly thought of something and said shyly, "Sister Li...you suddenly care about me and ask me this...do you want to go on a date with me..."
Li Shu couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. She finally realized that Wenxuan was interested in her. "No, my Taoist temple will be completed and officially open for business by the end of the year, so I wanted to invite you to visit. I've also told Taoist Jingchen about this."
Wenxuan coughed lightly and said with an embarrassed look, "Haha, so that's how it is. I'll tell Master when the time comes. And since my uncle is here, he will definitely let me go."
Li Shu hummed, and then said: "By the way, Wenxuan, I have a boyfriend, and I have always treated you as my younger brother..."
"..." Wenxuan was about to cry. He didn't expect that the breakup would come so suddenly. "Sister Li, please stop talking. Let me calm down..."
Li Shu touched the tip of her nose and said, "Oh, okay."
Wenxuan didn't say anything else. With a bitter face, he silently led Li Shu to where Jingchen was.
