âXi Shiqing is going to become a monk? Grandfather, are you sure? Are you pulling my leg?â Ning Xi probed, not believing what the elder just said.
Lu Tingxiao frowned incredulously as he listened to Ning Xiâs conversation with her grandfather.
He thought that the matter with Xi Shiqing had been settled last night. How in the world did this happen?
The elder fumed, âWhy would I kid you at a time like this? That young man from the Xi family is already at the temple. Heâs going to shave his hair off this afternoon! Which part of this sounds like a joke?â
Ning Xi was confused and she sputtered, âThis isâ¦impossible! Could there be some other reason? Why would you think that it was because of me?â
âWhat else could it be? He was acting all fine before he left, but he suddenly told his family he wanted to become a monk after having dinner with you! You are the biggest suspect!â The elder continued, âXiao Xi, please think about what happened last night! Being a monk is not a trivial matter! If itâs related to you, how can I face Elder Xi at this rate?â
Ning Xi suddenly felt guiltyâ¦
Actually, quite a lot happened last nightâ¦
Did she try too hard to get her message clearly across to him?
Regardless, it would not have reached the point that he would decide to become a monk immediately!
âGrandfather, where are you now?â She queried, hearing chanting in the background.
âIâm at the Fahua Temple right now. Shiqingâs grandfather and parents are here as well. Xiao Xi, please come over as I canât explain everything to you over the phone clearly.â
âAlright, Iâll be right there!â
After she hung up, Ning Xi gave Lu Tingxiao an alarmed look. The devilâs attack sure packed a great punch of destructive power!
âXi Shiqing is going to become a monk?â
Ning Xi nodded and stood up to leave. âYes, and it seems like it was because of me. I need to go to Fahua Temple at once.â
âIâll go with you.â
âForget it! What if he does something even more insane after he sees you?â Ning Xi said bitterly.
âIâll send you to the entrance of the temple.â
âBut youâll be late for work!â
âNothing much is happening in the morning. Just a meeting which I can get Jingli to attend on behalf of me instead.â Lu Tingxiao was already calling Lu Jingli as he said this.
Lu Jingliâs cheerful voice answered the phone, âHello, Bro! Whatâs up so early in the morning? Oh, did something happen? Heh heh.â
âI canât attend the meeting later. Please attend it in my stead,â Lu Tingxiao said calmly.
Lu Jingliâs happiness was suddenly deflated. âAh? Canât you go? What happened last night? Did you and Xiao Xi Xiâ¦â
âXi Shiqing is going to become a monk now and I need to go to Fahua Temple with Ning Xi.â Lu Tingxiaoâs reply stopped Lu Jingliâs wild imagination in its tracks.
âWhat?!â Lu Jingli gasped in shock, âBecome a monk? Are you kidding me?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lu Jingli still could not believe what he had just heard. This latest development was a gossipâs fantasyâ¦
Most importantly, how could he be left out in such an important moment?
He quickly gave his manager a call and have him hold the meeting instead, then he sped off to Fahua Temple.
