326 Obsession

As she stood at the side silently, the nun looked at the siblings. She hoped that Deng Chengxi would think it through. However, just as she was about to move, she heard Deng Chengxi say again, Madam, please continue.

The nun stopped in her tracks and said helplessly, Amitabha.

Deng Jiangming had an angry expression. He could tell that his sister would never be able to move on. He wondered if Hua Yuncheng could think of a way. He was about to say something when he heard Deng Chengxi say, Brother, go back. I just want peace and quiet in front of Buddha. Otherwise, you wouldn't want to collect my corpse, right?

You! Deng Jiangming was really enraged. She was actually threatening to commit suicide? Was this something a young lady from a wealthy family would say?

At this moment, Hua Yuncheng finally arrived with Xu Qing. In fact, at first, Deng Chengxi didn't tell her family where she was going to become a monk. She only said that she was leaving.

Xu Qing panted a little as she took a few steps towards Deng Chengxi and said calmly, Let's talk.

Deng Chengxi looked at Xu Qing with a bitter smile and was about to refuse.

Don't refuse yet. I'll only talk to you one last time. If you don't change your mind, I won't say anything else. I'm just doing this out of friendship, Xu Qing said to her.

Deng Jiangming was stunned. Was Xu Qing here to persuade Deng Chengxi to become a monk or give up?

Alright. Deng Chengxi agreed. She knew that Xu Qing had a unique charm, so it might be more useful for Xu Qing to persuade her brother.

In the meditation room next door, Xu Qing was the first to speak. I still remember the first time I saw you. You were wearing a blood-red dress and your makeup was exquisite. Even a bride would have paled in comparison to you. When I saw the pridefulness in your eyes, I gained a better understanding of your personality.

Deng Chengxi's eyes were also filled with nostalgia. If she hadn't met Yi Chulin again, she might have buried everything in her heart, or perhaps she would have just relied on those past memories to live on.

Until you met Yi Chulin again Sigh, I can't agree with you. How can you be so stubborn? Do you know that Yi Chulin and Ying Zhiyao are destined to be together? Even if Ying Zhiyao dies, Yi Chulin won't find a new woman, not to mention Ying Zhiyao will return. The two of them will live happily ever after Xu Qing thought about it. After so many years, was Deng Chengxi really unable to let go of her love for Yi Chulin, or was it just an obsession with her first love?

Ying Zhiyao will be back? Deng Chengxi asked carefully.

Yes. You've heard of Liu Gexu, right? This is his divination. Actually, you and Yi Chulin are already on two parallel paths. In a few years, he might not remember you at all. He has his own life, so why do you have to cling to that obsession and give up your life for it? Xu Qing said calmly.

When Xu Qing and Deng Chengxi came out again, everyone was looking at them. Xu Qing only shrugged. She had already done her best, so what choice Deng Chengxi made in the end was up to herself.

Deng Chengxi knelt in front of Buddha again. Deng Jiangming's face turned pale, but he heard Deng Chengxi say guiltily, Madam, I'm sorry to have disturbed you and Buddha.

Amitabha, you guys can leave now. The nun could tell that Deng Chengxi wasn't genuinely interested in cutting ties with the secular world. She just couldn't get over her obsession.

Thank you. After Deng Chengxi bowed to the nun, she walked to Xu Qing's side and smiled at her. Let's go.

Deng Jiangming was very puzzled. What had Xu Qing said to Deng Chengxi that made her suddenly change her mind? If Deng Chengxi was really just too stubborn, he wouldn't care so much. As long as his sister was still at home, it would be fine. As for the future, Deng Jiangming didn't dare to think about it for the time being. Love was too terrifying. Once people fell in love, they would be consigned to eternal damnation.

Deng Jiangming looked at Qiao Yanhui and Xu Qing. People like them, who were in love and could stay together in the long-term, were too rare.

Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui had just returned home when they saw Ao Jie, who was playing with the children.

Where did you two go? You actually abandoned the children like this? There was no one to accompany them. How pitiful. Ao Jie looked at Qiao Yanhui reproachfully, as if Qiao Yanhui had abused his children.

I had something on just now, Qiao Yanhui said calmly. Then, he looked at the three children. Have you finished your assignments for today?

We haven't studied medicine today yet. We'll go now, Ting'er replied as he stretched out his little finger.

Go ahead. Qiao Yanhui smiled.

Yes. The children went to learn basic medical knowledge from Xun Fen and Teng Nian.
