"What do you want from me?" Xiao Chen was puzzled.
Why did Su Muyu come to the school to find me instead of accompanying her good brother Xiao Ming?
"I want to talk to you." Su Muyu's face still looked as if he was keeping people at a distance.
But there was a strange look in her eyes.
Doubt, confusion, or perhaps struggle.
"Just tell me if you have something to say." Xiao Chen leaned on a piece of sports equipment.
"Here?" Su Muyu frowned.
"How about a fancy coffee shop? I can stir my coffee and listen to you talk to me softly?"
Xiao Chen grinned: "No need, people with my background are not that elegant. If you have something to say, just tell me. I still have classes to attend."
"You started living in Xiao Ming's house half a year ago?" Su Muyu's expression became unusually serious.
"That's right, you were there on the first day I went to the Xiao family." Xiao Chen said lightly: "As Xiao Ming's close sister, you know everything about the Xiao family."
"Then I want to ask you." Su Muyu lowered his head: "Have we met before?"
Xiao Chen looked at Su Muyu, and Su Muyu also raised her head and looked straight into his eyes.
He didn't understand why Su Muyu asked such a question.
"I've seen it." Xiao Chen uttered two words.
"Really? Where have we met before?" Su Muyu's breathing became rapid.
The answer that she longed for but did not want to be true seemed to be right before her eyes.
"Forgot, in the dream?" Xiao Chen looked up at the sky, as if thinking hard.
"Xiao Chen, can you be serious?" Su Muyu was a little angry.
"I'm serious. You're the daughter of the high and mighty Su family, the princess recognized by everyone in Jiangcheng."
"And I'm just a country bumpkin who was abandoned by my parents and fostered at my grandmother's house since I was a child."
"If it weren't for the Xiao family's kindness, allowing me to enjoy six months of wealth and prosperity, we would never have met in this life, don't you think?"
Xiao Chen's tone was calm and mocking, which instantly angered Su Muyu.
"Xiao Chen, you don't have to be so sarcastic. I just wanted to confirm something with you."
"I'm now sure that person is not you, because he is kind and upright."
"And you are a despicable villain."
Su Muyu turned around and left, she even wanted to laugh.
She thought she must be crazy.
Why did she suspect that the person who saved her was Xiao Chen?
This guy is hostile to everyone.
The kind, gentle and understanding Xiao Ming was the one who saved her back then.
Watching Su Muyu leave without looking back, Xiao Chen shrugged indifferently.
He knew that Su Muyu had already become suspicious when he donated blood yesterday.
But she was conflicted, afraid that she had wasted her feelings over the years.
After all, she has regarded Xiao Ming as her savior and has been taking care of him all these years.
And she was unwilling to believe that Xiao Ming was the despicable villain who pretended to be someone else.
Otherwise, with her identity, she would be able to find out what happened in minutes.
He was unwilling to defend himself, because he no longer had the deep love he had for Su Muyu in his previous life.
Furthermore, if he tried to defend himself, the other party would most likely not believe him.
Why bother? These people are so boring.
After school in the evening, Xiao Chen went to Qingniu Temple alone.
With the donation from the Song family and the attention of many people in society, Qingniu Temple is now under renovation.
Moreover, the temple became more popular, so the Taoist priest no longer kept the temple door closed all day.
Instead, they opened their doors to welcome pilgrims from all directions, and set up a consultation table to pray for people and treat their illnesses.
He also changed out of his tattered Taoist robe that had been patched up many times in the past.
Instead, there was a brand new green Taoist robe.
And he had a Hunyuan scarf tied around his head.
The so-called Hunyuanjin is one of the nine scarves and three crowns of Taoism.
He was also wearing a pair of small sunglasses, which made him look a little more playful.
Looking at the mark on Xiao Chen's arm, he sighed softly.
He casually picked up a bowl of water, and lightly drew a few strokes of his right hand above the bowl in the air, finally forming a Taoist seal.
Then, he held the bowl in one hand, scooped some water from the bowl with the other hand, and gently sprinkled it on Xiao Chen's arm.
“Good fortune and misfortune come from nowhere; they are brought upon oneself.”
As the water splashed onto Xiao Chen's arms, he immediately felt a sense of relief.
And the mark seemed to have faded a lot.
"Restorate for three days after returning home, and this thing will disappear. However, the karma that binds you may not be so easily offset."
"Master, what's wrong with me?" Xiao Chen asked puzzledly.
"Do I have to ask the reason?" The Taoist priest took out three incense sticks, knelt down in front of the Three Pure Ones, and then inserted them in front of the altar.
"I want to know the reason." Xiao Chen nodded. He felt that this was his life and he needed to find out the reason.
After all, he has lived two lives now, and he wants to figure out what exactly happened to him.
"You will understand later, but now is not the time." The Taoist priest shook his head gently.
"Remember, don't let yourself get hurt or lose too much blood in the future."
"Because once you're injured or lose too much blood, you're at your most vulnerable. That's when... they have an opportunity to take advantage."
Xiao Chen was a little confused by what he heard. He didn't know who the Taoist priest was talking about.
But after knowing the Master for so many years, he understood that there was a reason for everything the Master did.
Since the master didn't say anything, he didn't ask anymore.
After leaving the Taoist temple, Xiao Chen met Xiao Ming at the door of his home.
The guy looked pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
But he seems to be in much better spirits than before.
"Brother, I came to see you specially." Seeing Xiao Chen, Xiao Ming smiled harmlessly.
"If you have something to say, say it. If you have something to fart, fart it." Xiao Chen said coldly, "Then get out of here right now. I feel unlucky just by looking at your face."
"Brother..." Xiao Ming looked aggrieved again.
"There's no one here. Don't act like you've been raped. It's disgusting." Xiao Chen's face darkened.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Xiao Ming's face gradually became distorted.
"Xiao Chen, why are you trying to steal things that belong to me?" Xiao Ming asked.
"What did I steal from you?" Xiao Chen was puzzled. He actually didn't understand where Xiao Ming's hatred for him came from.
He had always thought that this guy was just a vicious person, but now it seemed that besides being vicious, there must be something else about him that made him hate him.
"Sister Su came to see you today, right?" Xiao Ming was shaking all over.
From this we can see that his hatred is very strong.
"Yes, you came to me. What happened?" Xiao Chen asked again.
"She... is mine." Xiao Ming clenched his fists tightly: "I will marry her in the future."
"Everything in the Su family is destined to be mine."
"You know what, Xiao Chen? You shouldn't have appeared. You shouldn't have been born."
