As they spoke, Lu Fan drove the car to the temple entrance. Looking at the magnificent temple in front of him, Lu Fan's heart gradually calmed down, and he felt a rare tranquility here.
Gradually, one becomes immersed in the Dharma.
"Let's go in and take a look."
As soon as the two entered, an elderly woman selling ropes nearby saw the handsome couple and immediately came to greet them.
In their eyes, this was an excellent opportunity, especially considering that these two individuals possessed extraordinary qualities, and their wealth would naturally be considerable.
"Oh, I can tell you two are childhood sweethearts, and your demeanor suggests you come from a wealthy family."
I'm telling you, the red string and other items I have here are incredibly effective. If you buy my red string, you'll definitely have a healthy, big son.
As an older woman working there, he could tell at a glance that these two people had come here for no reason, and since they were not short of money, it was most likely because of their child.
He had seen far too many things like this before, and it had long been commonplace for him. Although he didn't know why it was so difficult for wealthy families to have children.
They must each have their own difficulties, but as long as they can sell their products, that's all that matters.
Hearing these words, Nangong Qi smiled slightly. After all, such praise and acknowledgment of their identities made him feel a surge of emotion. However, Lu Fan's dissuasion prevented him from buying several bodies.
Then he went to the offering table in the center of the temple. Looking around, he bought a few more incense sticks. Lu Fan simply bought a few incense sticks and went to the center of the temple platform, where he inserted the incense sticks into the ash burner.
He bowed several times, silently praying to get through this difficult time, as this matter had been causing him considerable distress.
After Nangong Qi finished hanging the red rope, she pulled Lu Fan around the temple, where various monks were constantly chanting Buddhist scriptures.
Compared to the outside world, this place is like a paradise, giving people a special sense of tranquility.
Away from worldly troubles, Lu Fan returned to the previous scene in a brief moment. He was very clear about this matter, and there was still a lot to come. He couldn't just focus on the present.
He also knew that this brief peace did not belong to him; only by surviving this diagnosis could they find their own peace.
After leaving the temple, he looked at Nangong Qi beside him and sensed what the other person meant.
"I have something to tell you. From now on, I may not be able to stay with you like this anymore. There are some things going on with the family, and I may need to go to other places to take charge."
He didn't tell Lu Fan that he was also going to be used as a tool for a political marriage, to marry someone else, after all, he wanted to leave a good impression on Lu Fan, at least so that Lu Fan wouldn't look down on his father.
Because he knew his father well, he had done everything he could, and for him, having such a father was the best thing.
"You're leaving? Why so suddenly? You never mentioned it before, and your family has deep roots in this area."
If we send you to another place, given your father's habits, aren't you afraid you'll be bullied?
Seeing that Nangong Qi did not answer him, he did not ask any further questions, after all, this involved the Nangong family's family affairs.
After thinking for a moment, he wondered if this was related to him, since he had implicated the other party.
After all, the incident of framing Zhang Qi had still had some impact on the Nangong family.
So they have enough evidence, but someone like Zhang Qi, who has no shame or conscience, is as disgusting as a dark rat in a sewer.
Nobody knows when he'll suddenly appear and give them a taste of their own medicine. He turns a blind eye to people like that. If it weren't for this incident, he wouldn't want to meet them at all.
"Is it because of me? I sense that something is wrong with you. You seem very strange compared to before. Could it be that the incident last time caused a rift in your family?"
Nangong Qi simply shook her head and pouted at Lu Fan.
"You're underestimating my father's temperament. He wouldn't let his daughter suffer over something so trivial."
Upon hearing this answer, Lu Fan also swallowed his anger. After all, he had also felt that his only daughter loved him very much and took care of his family in many ways.
In particular, being able to change one's temper with just a few words from him is something that would be impossible under normal circumstances.
He was particularly aware of the fact that most people in the bureaucracy used marriage to build relationships.
Even wealthy merchant families sometimes implement corresponding policies, but these are usually done in a rather subtle way.
The fact that the other person was still standing in front of him showed that his father didn't want to use his betrayal to ensure the safety of the entire family.
“What you said makes sense. I can also feel your uncle’s favoritism towards you. Most people probably can’t live as carefree as you.”
After they finished talking, the two wandered around the area for a while. It wasn't until they had dinner that evening that Lu Fan took him back.
After they parted ways, Nangong Qi, who had been feeling melancholy all the way, looked at Lu Fan and smiled faintly.
"Actually, I'm already very lucky to have met you this time. I hope the next bus will be earlier."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left Lu Fan. Although he was a little confused after hearing this, he didn't think much of it.
He simply doesn't have the energy to think about anything else right now; he has to deal with the problems at hand first.
When he returned to the company, Jiang Manyue had not yet gone home.
There was still a lot of work to be done at the company, waiting for the two of them to handle.
After a busy night, it was already 10 p.m. Looking at the dim lights outside, Lu Fan felt a mix of emotions.
He had lost track of how long it had been since he had been on such a journey, but he was well aware that there were many things that were simply beyond their control.
"You've worked hard during this time. We now have the information on the case. Today, someone took me to see the former mayor."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Manyue was taken aback, because in his impression, if one could establish a relationship with the mayor, even if it was someone from the past, one could have a certain amount of influence.
He suddenly became interested, thinking that it might be able to change the current predicament.
She had no idea which extraordinary person Lu Fan knew who could introduce her to such a connection.
"Who is this new acquaintance of yours? Could he be from Nanshan City?"
