Chapter 32 Drawing Lots to Watch the Meteor Shower



Chapter 32 Drawing Lots to Watch the Meteor Shower

After breakfast, Gao Li went to the flower shop angrily.

Only fresh green plants and beautiful flowers can soothe her frustrated heart.

Lin Ying laughed at her. She didn't expect that person to be so childish.

The two became friends, and Gao Li would often follow Lin Ying and call her sister.

Ever since her mother fell ill, Lin Ying's world has become monotonous, heavy and closed, and she thought that this was the end of her life.

Unexpectedly, Jian Yi came and gave her hope to pursue her dream. Gao Li also came and broke into her world, becoming the most prosperous palace lantern flower.

"That's right."

Lin Ying looked up from her sketch, looked at Gao Li, who was fiddling with the bouquet, and said, "I saw on the news last night that there's going to be a meteor shower this week. Why don't you bring your fiancé along?"

Gao Li stopped and turned his head suddenly.

——[Meteor shower?]

She opened her phone to search, and indeed there were relevant reports.

She came close to Lin Ying and chuckled.

[How about we go together?]

——[Why do you want to go with him?]

——[Is it better to go with my sister than with him?]

No. 13 was so anxious that he was jumping up and down. How could his host be so stupid?

"Watching the meteor shower, such a romantic scene, of course you should be with Jian Yi. What a beautiful time alone. A handsome man and a beautiful woman, a passionate love..."

——[Psst, psst, please don't say such horrible things.]

——[Hasn’t our time alone at Qingshan Villa been long enough? I don’t want to go with someone who would spoil the mood.]

No. 13: "Actually, I wouldn't mind if the three of you went together."

Gao Li: “…”

Jian Yi, who was forced to hear this at this moment, said: "..."

Didn't anyone ask for his opinion?

Lin Ying chuckled and pointed at the sketch. "I don't have time. Besides, this is more important to me right now than watching the meteor shower."

Gao Li looked disappointed and did not force it.

However, this was a grand scene that only appeared in idol TV dramas, so how could she not join in the fun?

Gao Li was angry, so he made a plan and packed his bags by himself.

No. 13: "Meteor shower! Are you sure you want to go alone to such a romantic scene?"

"Go and invite Jian Yi."

No. 13 could nag her eight hundred times. Gao Li couldn't stand it anymore and knocked on the study door.

[It's reported that there will be a meteor shower this week. I'm planning to go see it. Are you going?]

Jian Yi raised his head from a pile of wood blocks.

"No."

Gao Li turned and left.

——[Look, they don’t even bother to go.]

——[A dog bites Lü Dongbin, not knowing the kindness of a good person. If you don't want to go, then don't go. Do you think I care about you?]

——[I find it troublesome to take someone with me who has difficulty walking.]

Jian Yi: “…”

No, are you really angry? Is it necessary to be so angry?

Gao Li was angry and planned to go alone.

But when he looked up and saw the lonely figure in the half-open door frame of the study, his heart sank again.

She fluttered her eyelashes and walked into the study again.

[You come with me.]

"No."

[Why? ]

"Because I don't think it's interesting, childish. I don't know why you like it so much?"

Gao Li: “…”

——[I’m not angry, I’m not angry!]

She solemnly typed a line of words on the phone screen.

[But have you ever done something so childish and romantic since you were a child?]

——[Never.]

Jian Yi stared at the line of words, lowered his eyes and remained silent.

"Is that why you want me to go?"

Gao Li nodded.

Jian Yi raised his eyes and said, "Okay."

[but……]

Gao Li held Jian Yi's wrist and smiled sweetly in a flattering manner.

[To thank me for taking such good care of you, please pay for the travel expenses.]

Jian Yi: “…”

He was very moved.

It's too distracting.

No. 13 was also dissatisfied and shouted: "It's out of character, it's out of character, can't you just follow the routine of idol dramas and go through the next process normally?"

——[No, compared to romance and money, hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to money.]

——[Besides, Jian Yi is rich. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. He has plenty of money in his coffers.]

Jian Yi turned his face away helplessly, took a deep breath, and told himself not to be angry.

No matter how much money you have in your slush fund, if it only has expenses and no income, it will all be squandered sooner or later.

Gao Li searched on the Internet and found that the best place to observe this meteor shower in Beicheng is Weiming Mountain.

It was late at night and the dew was heavy, so they changed into thick outdoor clothes and headed to the camping base on the top of Weiming Mountain.

This place is indeed the best place, with waves of people gathering here in a short period of time.

Gao Li brought Jian Yi with him. Neither of them had the talent to set up a tent, so they simply rented one.

The base also provides a variety of meals. Gao Li generously picked up one plate after another, then nodded to the merchant and the people behind him.

Jian Yi silently scanned the code and paid.

As night fell, a thick fog rose. It lifted around 1 a.m.

Gao Li looked at the night sky with his bright eyes wide open.

After the fog dissipates, you can see the sky full of stars.

She pulled Jian Yi's arm and pointed at the sky.

——[Look, it’s so beautiful.]

Jian Yi was indeed shocked by the beautiful scenery before him. When a meteor passed by, a hand suddenly pinched his cheeks.

The originally cold and stern man now had slightly puffed cheeks and a dazed look in his eyes, which made him look somewhat cute.

Gao Li held up his cell phone and snapped a picture to freeze the scene.

"What are you doing?"

Gao Li smiled complacently.

——[I’m taking embarrassing photos of you. You know what, they’re actually quite cute.]

Jian Yi: “…”

I knew he had no good intentions.

He reached out to grab more, and Gao Li took the opportunity to pinch his face and take a few more photos.

Behind the camera was a meteor shower streaking across the sky. In the camera, Jian Yi's cheeks were ravaged, his eyes speechless and aggrieved, while Gao Li on the other side laughed triumphantly.

——[I must save this photo. No, I must print it out and put it where Jian Yi can see it as soon as he opens his eyes. Hahahaha.]

Jian Yi looked at the girl's wanton laughter and stopped extending his hand.

This also seemed like a childish thing he had never done before.

That night, the two of them slept together under the romantic starry sky and had a good dream.

The next day at dawn, the two prepared to go down the mountain.

Passing by the mountain temple again, smelling the aroma of incense, Gao Li pulled Jian Yi out of the car and prepared to go inside.

"What are you doing at the temple?"

Gao Li clasped his hands together.

——[Of course I will bow.]

——[Whenever I come across a temple, no matter if it’s big or small, I’ll pray there, just in case it works.]

——[I pray to the God of Wealth every year, praying for me to win the lottery or get rich quick, hehe.]

Jian Yi glanced at the giggling woman and thought it was just a daydream.

But he still followed him into the temple.

As you step in, you will see the tall tree in the yard. Red ribbons are hung on the tree, carrying every wish, and the incense burner next to it is burning with incense.

Gao Li was very pious and went through every procedure carefully. Finally, he knelt in front of the God of Wealth for a long time.

In her own words, sincerity is the key to success.

There is a master at the entrance of the temple who is responsible for drawing lots and answering questions.

Gao Li was in a good mood and drew a bamboo stick. It was a good result, neither good nor bad.

She pointed to the stick holder.

——[Quick, draw one too.]

She couldn't even wait, so she took Jian Yi's hand and took out a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube.

Very bad luck.

——[Bad lot, just randomly drawn, doesn’t count.]

Gao Li always followed his heart and only listened selectively.

Jian Yi sneered. He had never believed in such things since ancient times. If it really worked, everyone would come and burn incense and worship Buddha.

The master looked at the fortune and suddenly said, "It's not completely impossible to change. There is still a chance of a ray of hope."

——[Is there a chance of a turnaround?]

Gao Li widened his eyes, moved closer and motioned the master to speak quickly.

The master nodded profoundly and said, "On the path of cultivation, good deeds are like a boat, and compassion is its sail. Maintaining a compassionate heart and performing good deeds is like sowing good seeds in spring, which will surely yield a bountiful harvest in autumn. Cause and effect in the world are like shadows following us; sowing good causes will yield good results; this is the law of nature."

Gao Li: “…”

Number 13 interjected, "What it means is that we should do more good deeds and maintain a compassionate heart, so that we can reap good rewards. You reap what you sow."

——[Do you think I don’t understand?]

Gao Li frowned and thought deeply.

——[Why do I suddenly feel that this master is somewhat accurate?]

——[Isn't that the case for Jian Yi? He did so many bad things before, so of course the ending was bad. The Master's meaning is that if he does more good things, maybe he will have a good ending.]

Number 13 nodded, "That's true. Can even the biggest villains escape these days?"

Jian Yi was silent.

Will it?

He doesn't know.

Before Gao Li came, he never believed in these illusory things. He did not believe in heaven or fate, but only in himself.

But later Gao Li broke in, bringing with him the magic medicine and so many supernatural factors, which forced him to rethink.

——[It is better to believe it exists than not to believe it exists. Doing more good things will never go wrong.]

No. 13: “That’s the truth.”

Jian Yi looked at the girl in front of him who was wearing a red ribbon. The red ribbon fluttering in the wind was as bright as her eyebrows and eyes.

It helped him resolve his doubts so cleverly.

It also made him no longer feel unhappy about the money he had lost.

He originally thought that it was just a casual act of compassion and would not be known to others.

But when a banner was sent to Qingshan Villa and Gao Li was invited by the Jian family to participate in the Jian Group Charity Art Exhibition, he was stunned.

Gao Li: “…”

No. 13: "Don't be shocked yet, let me be shocked for a while."

Gao Li looked at the banner and felt it was very strange no matter how he looked at it from left to right.

——[Did Jian Yi really donate money to the orphanage where that little boy lives?]

——[So shocking, he actually did something good?]

No. 13: "Yeah, this is the collapse of the character."

——[I will definitely hang it in the most conspicuous corner of the living room.]

As a result, when I turned around, I was met with a pair of gloomy eyes.

Jian Yi just looked at her straight.

From the time the banner was delivered until now, she and that broken system have been fighting for several hours.

Gao Li got goosebumps all over her body when she was stared at by this look. She shuddered and immediately put on a sweet smile.

——[Nonsense, our Jian Yi is so loving, he is the kindest child in the world.]

Jian Yi: “…”

No. 13: “…”

"You're talking nonsense. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
