The master that my father invited was actually the Master Lao Wu that Shen Yanqiu and I had gone to look for!
While Zhu Tingyue was still in a daze, the butler had already approached with Master Wu.
Several people stood up, and Zhu Mingchuan said solemnly: "Master, now that you are here, I will trouble you with my daughter's matter!"
Master Liao Wu had a solemn look on his face. His eyes, as deep as the abyss, slowly and gently swept over the faces of Zhu Tingyue and Shen Yanqiu.
However, this seemingly casual glance seemed to be able to see through everything, making people feel nervous.
After a short pause, Master Liao Wu finally said, "Misfortunes often lie behind blessings, and blessings often lie behind misfortunes."
These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the ears of Zhu Mingchuan and his mother.
For a moment, both of them stood there in a daze, with these words containing endless profound meanings constantly echoing in their minds.
Mother Zhu frowned slightly, chewing the meaning carefully;
Zhu Mingchuan lowered his head thoughtfully, as if trying to find some clues from this sentence.
The whole scene instantly became unusually quiet, with only the voice of Master Liao Wu still echoing in the air...
Well, this is the sentence again.
The moment Zhu Tingyue and Shen Yanqiu saw Master Wu, they gave up hope on this matter. Sure enough, he still said the same thing.
Zhu Tingyue and Shen Yanqiu looked at each other and felt helpless.
But Zhu Mingchuan and his mother couldn't accept it. Zhu Mingchuan hurriedly asked, "Master, what do you mean?"
Master Liao Wu looked at him with eyes that could see through everything and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
This sentence was exactly the same as what he said that day! Zhu Tingyue suspected that he only knew these two sentences. Was he going to turn around and leave next?
As she expected, after Master Liaowu said this, he gave Zhu Tingyue and Shen Yanqiu a meaningful look, and then went out!
Zhu Mingchuan stood there in a daze. He was always quick-witted, but at this moment he couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Mother Zhu was also confused by what he said, but she still took out the gift she had prepared and asked the housekeeper to send it out.
After a while, the housekeeper came back with the gift that Zhu's mother asked her to give away.
He said with embarrassment, "Madam, the master said that monks are empty of the four elements, so he can't take this thing."
He doesn't want anything and his words are unclear, which shows that this matter is not easy to handle!
Both Zhu's mother and Zhu Mingchuan looked at Zhu Tingyue and Shen Yanqiu, and the disappointment in their eyes was clearly visible.
Zhu Tingyue stepped forward to comfort them, "Mom and Dad, it doesn't matter if we can't get her back. I think this is not bad. Now you have two caring daughters! Isn't that good?"
After hearing this, Zhu's mother behaved relatively calmly. She frowned slightly but didn't say much.
However, Zhu Mingchuan on the side could not sit still. His originally peaceful face suddenly became gloomy, and his two thick eyebrows were tightly twisted together like two angry caterpillars.
Then, his pair of eyes, which had been relatively gentle at first, suddenly widened, as if his eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets. He stared at Shen Yanqiu intently, with blazing anger spurting out of his eyes.
He tried his best to suppress his anger and said to Zhu Tingyue: "I only want my dear, I don't want anyone else! Yueyue, don't worry, I will go find the master again, and Dad will definitely let you get it back!"
Zhu's mother also agreed: "Yes, you can't always be like this. Life is so long, it's better to change it back."
Chen Yanqiu didn't say a word from beginning to end. He couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or sad about the result.
It is undeniable that he was indeed happy during the time he lived in the Zhu family.
Zhu's mother was so gentle, and although Zhu Mingchuan would argue with him, his concern was genuine. Even though they just regarded themselves as Zhu Tingyue!
Now that Zhu's mother and Zhu Mingchuan already know the truth, he should not rely on Zhu Tingyue's identity anymore. Perhaps the best outcome would be for the two of them to exchange their identities.
So, as soon as Zhu's mother finished speaking, he continued: "I think you are right, we should change it back."
Zhu Mingchuan was surprised when he said this. He thought that this guy was greedy for the Zhu family's wealth and would not let go! Unexpectedly, he still had some self-awareness.
Zhu's mother felt even more guilty: this child is too sensible.
He was not the only one who was sad when something like this happened, but he was all alone without anyone to talk to. The Shen family was not a good place for him to stay either. It was so pitiful!
She looked at Chen Yanqiu with pity, only to see that after Chen Yanqiu finished speaking, he lowered his head, making it impossible to see the expression on his face, nor to discern his true thoughts.
With a deep sigh in her heart, Zhu's mother thought that she would compensate him more in the future.
Zhu Tingyue's indifferent attitude was also disrupted by Chen Yanqiu's words. If he wanted to change it back, then let him change it. Maybe it would be better if everything was back on track.
Zhu Mingchuan did what he thought, and left a sentence: "I will go find the master again." Then he walked out with big strides.
Chen Yanqiu went upstairs on the pretext of wanting to rest for a while, leaving time for Zhu Tingyue and her daughter.
Zhu Tingyue and her mother looked at each other. Since the master had said so, no amount of comforting words would help. Zhu's mother was open-minded and did not need her comfort.
But there was one thing she had to figure out.
"How long have you known each other?"
She had hinted at it before, but her daughter refused to give a direct answer. This time she was going to attack directly to see how her daughter would dodge it.
Zhu Tingyue had never expected that her mother would suddenly ask her such a question, and was caught off guard for a moment.
She seemed to be under a spell and stood there in a daze. It took her a long time to react.
Then she slowly lowered her head, and her eyes began to wander around restlessly, glancing to the left and to the right, as if there was some rare treasure on the ground.
At the same time, her brain was like a high-speed machine, with all kinds of thoughts running rapidly, trying to find a suitable answer.
How to answer?
Saying that they have known each other for a long time, and that Chen Yanqiu is his own mistress? Definitely not! If my father knew about this, he would start to doubt Chen Yanqiu's character again.
Saying that they just met and are not very familiar with each other? It seems that this is not possible! There are so many people, why did he swap with Chen Yanqiu, who he is not very familiar with? He still has to make up a reason to explain.
This doesn't work, that doesn't work either. She was still trying to think of an excuse, but Zhu's mother was already urging her: "What's wrong? It's so hard to come up with an excuse, and you haven't found one yet?"
The moment Zhu's mother finished speaking, Zhu Tingyue secretly thought that something was wrong. Her little thoughts were actually seen through by her mother so easily!
