The moment Xiao Yan stepped out of the room, Xiao Heng suddenly called him.

After hesitating, Xiao Heng finally spoke.

Xiao Yan paused, turned around and looked at him, and said without hesitation: "Of course, no matter what Ah Heng does, brother will not blame you."

After hearing his words, Xiao Heng felt even more guilty.

What if I...steal my brother's wife? Will my brother forgive me?

Xiao Heng didn't ask the rest of what was in his mind. After all, it was just his wishful thinking now.

After meeting the person they were supposed to meet, Xiao Yan, Jiang Lin and Jiang Yi returned to Kyoto together.

As soon as they left, Wei Lan, Zhou Ziyu and the other three came to Xiao Heng's room.

"How's it going? Have you found out what Brother Xiao has to say?"

When they came in, Xiao Heng was holding his chin with a dazed look on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Brother Xiao, what's wrong? Are things not going well?"

Zhou Ziyu bent down, walked in front of Xiao Heng, and snapped his fingers at him.

Xiao Heng looked at him and said weakly, "I found it."

"What did Brother Xiao say?"

Zhou Ziyu, Wei Lan and the other three spoke in unison, staring at Xiao Heng, waiting for him to continue.

"My brother said that it is more important for the three of us to live a good life than anything else..."

Xiao Heng repeated Xiao Yan's words like a tape recorder.

"ah??"

"What does this mean? Does Brother Xiao have feelings for Jiang Li or not?"

Several people were completely confused after hearing this, and couldn't guess what Xiao Yan was thinking for a moment.

"Brother Xiao is talking about the three of you. Could it be that one of these three people is Jiang Li?"

Zhou Ziyu touched his chin and guessed the meaning of this sentence.

Ji Yanchuan immediately retorted: "Hey, hey, that's not necessarily true. Brother Xiao didn't mention the name of Jiang Li. What if he was talking about someone else?"

"Someone else? Are you saying that Brother Xiao already has someone else in his heart?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Huaixu slapped his thigh excitedly.

"That's right! If Brother Xiao falls in love with someone else and Jiang Li falls in love with Brother Xiao, then wouldn't the engagement between them be directly invalidated?"

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that! This way, they won't destroy the relationship between the brothers, and they can finally get married with the person they love. It's really killing two birds with one stone!"

As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, let alone there were four of them, and they quickly helped Xiao Heng come up with new ideas.

"Let your brother fall in love with someone else?"

Xiao Heng, who had been hunching his body with his chin supported, put down his hands and straightened his waist.

"That's right! Brother Xiao, think about it carefully. What kind of woman would a man like Brother Xiao, who is so kind and gentle, like like a spring breeze, like?"

"I guess Brother Xiao must like a talented woman who is as knowledgeable as him!"

Xiao Heng shook his head: "Brother doesn't like this."

How boring it is for two quiet-loving people to deal with poetry, books and economics all day long.

Zhou Ziyu touched his chin and said, "You don't like this. Do you like someone who is heroic, lively and complementary to you?"

"Although, isn't it Jiang Li who is heroic and lively...?"

The corner of Ji Yanchuan's mouth twitched, and he quickly covered his mouth after he finished speaking.

Xiao Heng's eyes dimmed instantly, and he held up his chin weakly, "Yes, maybe Ah Li and brother are a match made in heaven. I'm just an outsider, and I shouldn't force it."

"Bah, bah, bah, there is no such thing as first come first served in relationships? Brother Xiao, don't be discouraged, we will help you think of a solution!"

Logically speaking, Xiao Heng and Jiang Li were the same age, so they should have been engaged. However, fate played tricks on them, and a Taoist priest said that Mrs. Xiao was pregnant with a girl.

This is how a marriage was arranged between Xiao Yan and the newly born Jiang Li.

Zhou Ziyu and a few others paced back and forth in the room, all trying to come up with ideas for their good brother's happiness.

“Got it!”

Ji Yanchuan exclaimed and suddenly thought of something.

"What is the solution?"

Wei Lan and the other two looked at him in unison, and even Xiao Heng turned his head away.

Under the gaze of the four people, Ji Yanchuan came to the table with a mysterious look on his face: "I wonder if you have heard of Honghu Temple?"

Wei Lan had some impression of Honghu Temple. "Honghu Temple? Isn't it the temple not far from the academy?"

Ji Yanchuan nodded: "Yes! It's that temple. My mother told me that there is a Bodhi tree in the temple that is so big that five people can hug it. It can help you pray for marriage!"

"Honghu Temple? Oh, oh, I remember now. My cousin married my cousin's wife one month after he came back from Honghu Temple!"

After hearing Shen Huaixu's words, everyone was shocked.

"Oh my god, it's so effective?"

"That's right, my cousin and his wife loved each other, but her family didn't agree with the marriage, so they went to Honghu Temple together to pray for a marriage. After they came back, her family suddenly agreed, and they got married within a month!"

A faint light flashed in Xiao Heng's eyes, and his heart was beating wildly.

"Brother Xiao, why don't you also go to Honghu Temple to pray for a marriage?"

Zhou Ziyu put his arm on Xiao Heng's shoulders and looked at him expectantly.

"Brother Xiao, I have heard about the magical properties of the Bodhi tree. Let's try and see if two people can stay together for a lifetime."

Xiao Heng turned his head and looked at Ji Yanchuan: "How to try?"

"Bring your loved one to the Bodhi tree and hang a marriage plaque with your two names on it. If the marriage plaque can hang firmly on the Bodhi tree, it means that this person is the one you will spend your life with. If the marriage plaque falls off, it means that you two are not suitable."

Xiao Heng stood up suddenly: "Okay, I got it, thank you for your advice, Brother Ji, I'll treat you to a drink later!"

Xiao Heng flew out of the room, leaving Ji Yanchuan and the other three looking at each other.

"Brother Xiao, where are you going?"

——

On the carriage back to Beijing, Xiao Yan and the two Jiang brothers sat on three sides.

After nine days, Jiang Lin and Jiang Yi finally saw their sister, and they still have joy on their faces.

Xiao Yan, who was sitting in the main seat, brewed three cups of tea and chatted with the two brothers in a casual manner, with a faint smile on his lips all the time.

"Brother Xiao, you have been smiling all the way. What happened to make you so happy?"

Jiang Lin noticed the smile on Xiao Yan's lips, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.

"Ah Heng has someone he likes."

“Cough cough cough!”

After hearing his words, Jiang Lin was choked hard.

"Ah, Ah Heng? He has someone he likes? Who?"

Xiao Yan shook his head: "I don't know, he didn't say and I didn't ask."

Jiang Yi asked doubtfully: "Then why are you so sure?"

Xiao Yan said calmly: "Based on my understanding of Ah Heng, I know what he wants to do just by looking at his eyes."

"That's right. After all, you raised him. I didn't expect that this kid, Ah Heng, actually has someone he likes!"

Jiang Yi changed the subject and brought the topic back to Xiao Yan, "Brother Xiao, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

"Brother Jiang, just speak frankly."

"Now Ah Heng has someone he likes, what about you? You and Ah Li have been engaged since childhood, do you have feelings for her?"
