Lu Qingyan was telling the truth, but Su Meiren didn't like it. She yelled at Lu Qingyan, "I hate you!" and ran out.
Xi Bo chuckled and squeezed Lu Qingyan's hand, teasingly asking, "What, aren't you going to run after her now?"
Lu Qingyan shook her head: "I can't outrun her two legs."
This is both true and not true. Xiao Xin'er used to be physically weaker than Su Meiren, but now, after much training, Lu Qingyan could definitely catch up with her. However, Lu Qingyan couldn't catch up with Su Meiren's desire to escape.
So this time, Lu Qingyan didn't chase after her.
If she's going to make things difficult for herself because of a man, Lu Qingyan looks down on her and doesn't need to be friends with her anymore. She's a cold-hearted person to begin with, so how can she be expected to try her best to win her back?
Xi Bo was Lu Qingyan's life partner. He never said anything about liking Su Meiren, nor did he do anything to deliberately mislead her. From beginning to end, it was all Su Meiren's wishful thinking.
The situation has escalated to this point, and there are only three possible outcomes.
Su Meiren couldn't let go of her feelings, so she broke off all pretense and tried to take Xi Bo from her. Or perhaps Su Meiren let go of her obsession and reconciled with her. Or perhaps, no one knows whether Su Meiren let go of her obsession or not, and Lu Qingyan and she became strangers from then on.
If it were the Su Meiren of the past, then the ending between them would definitely be the second one, but Lu Qingyan vaguely felt that the current Su Meiren might choose the first path. She just didn't know how she planned to walk this path.
Several days later, just when Lu Qingyan thought she had guessed wrong, someone came to visit Xiao Xin'er's family. School was on long holiday at the time, and Lu Qingyan happened to be home when they arrived.
The all-knowing system, Su Han, had already informed Lu Qingyan: "Master, this old monk is Xi Bo's junior disciple. In terms of seniority, you're actually his elder. No need to be so polite."
Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "It's best not to be polite. Someone came to our door while Xi Bo was away. Who knows what he's up to?"
Xi Bo is currently taking care of his master. His master is old and doesn't have many people around him. Xi Bo used to take care of him personally, so he doesn't feel anything when he does it now.
The visitor was a kind-looking old monk who seemed quite capable. He stopped Lu Qingyan and offered to tell her fortune.
Mr. and Mrs. Xiao did not believe in these things, but they did not intend to send him away.
Mrs. Xiao chuckled and said, "Whether it's accurate or not is just a matter of opinion, so there's no need for the master to take it so seriously. Even if you didn't predict anything good, I won't blame you."
The old monk was speechless after being taken aback. After a moment, he laughed loudly and said, "It's just for good luck, and I wouldn't dare to make a hasty judgment. Just by looking at her face, I know she's a noble person, and she will surely bring you two a life of comfort and happiness in the future."
Mrs. Xiao's smile widened: "Then I'll take your kind words. Xin'er, the master is leaving now, go and see him off."
Lu Qingyan nodded in agreement.
As they walked out, the old monk struck up a conversation with Lu Qingyan. This time, he didn't say anything about being a "poor monk," but instead started talking about Su Meiren with Lu Qingyan.
“I know she and Miss Xiao have a history of friendship, and I know she made a mistake and shouldn’t be thinking about him, but I still want to shamelessly come here to beg you to fulfill her dream.” The old monk sighed: “I owe her all of this.”
Lu Qingyan sneered after hearing this: "What do I care about what you owe her? Are you suggesting I pay off your debt?"
