“If I hadn’t said that, how could I have gotten out of Wujue Temple? Mi Ku wouldn’t let me go at all. He said he wanted to keep me there as a monk. If it weren’t for Gongshu Jiru’s strong argument, I would definitely have been ordained by now.” She was so wronged.
"So, you are very grateful to Gongshu Jiruo for his kindness?" he asked with a smile.
