Chapter 232
Under his sudden questioning, Mansheng couldn't make a sound.I can only see his eyes, so clear and eye-catching in the main hall of this sunny temple!
"Vice President..." Yu An'an's voice came from outside the gate of the temple, probably because he couldn't find Lin Mansheng outside, so he came to look for it inside the hall.
Hearing the shout, Mansheng broke free anxiously, "Someone is coming! Let go!"
Wei Rong's brows were tightly locked, but he finally let go.
As soon as Yu An'an's figure flashed at the entrance of the main hall, he saw a man and a woman in front of the Buddha and Bodhisattva.
"Mr. Wei..." Yu An'an was surprised, because she didn't expect Mr. Wei to be here.
The two knelt down on the futon one after another, and were about to worship the gods.
Man Sheng turned back and said, "Wait a minute."
Yu An'an stopped at the door, watched Lin Mansheng kowtow, and then looked at Wei Rong. He straightened his back and looked at the big Buddha and Bodhisattva. He didn't know if he was meditating or looking at each other.
Man Sheng clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and prayed silently: Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, he didn't intend to offend, and he was disrespectful in front of you, please forgive me.
After Man Sheng finished prostrating, she got up slowly, glanced at him when she turned around, and found that he was still kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva, his eyes were closed tightly, his thick long black eyelashes were covered with a fan-shaped shadow, and his face was profiled under the candlelight. Against the red light, I don't know what to ask for.
But the next second, he suddenly stood up, "Let's go, don't make people wait too long."
After finishing speaking, Wei Rong left the main hall first, and Man Sheng also walked out immediately.
In the courtyard outside the temple, a group of people were waiting.
At noon, the pilgrims had already dispersed, because Lingshan Temple has an unwritten rule that when the meal time comes, the door will be temporarily closed.So, at this moment, it was quiet again.
Seeing them approaching, Wei Xiaoli smiled and said, "Vice President Lin, why are you so slow in praying to Buddha, I thought you were lost."
This is definitely a joke, Man Sheng replied, "There were a lot of people just now, so I waited for a while."
Gu Xiyuan and He Jiaqi stood together, he had been looking at them just now, almost walking side by side.However, he also noticed that Lin Mansheng's expression was slightly strange.In the main hall of the temple after they left, did he do something to her again?
"Executive Wei, Vice President Lin is using his heart." He Jiaqi smiled and said, "Don't fight with others and know how to be humble. This is also the Buddha nature of Buddhism. Next, there is probably a very important wish to make, so It's only been so long."
"Mr. Wei, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?" He Jiaqi turned his gaze and asked Wei Rong.
Wei Rong replied, "I don't have any wishes, but there is one problem."
He Jiaqi felt very curious, everyone looked at Wei Rong, and he said with deep eyes, "Only the Bodhisattva knows this question."
Man Sheng was a little hesitant, besides the Bodhisattva, there was her at the moment, and she also heard his question...
"May I ask Mr. Wei, did you get an answer to the question you asked the Bodhisattva for advice?" Gu Xiyuan then asked aloud.
"There are some problems of ordinary people that Bodhisattvas can't solve." Wei Rong replied with a smile, "However, the sky is destined to be irreversible. Whoever owns it is whoever owns it. It can't be escaped. It is like cooperating with Hengfeng. It is imperative."
Everyone at the scene knew about the project, but was it really just that?
While looking at each other, the little monk found them and said, "Several benefactors, it's time for fasting. The abbot invites everyone to go to the dining hall."
……
In the dining hall of Lingshan Temple, the master abbot is already there.
Seeing a group of benefactors coming, the abbot smiled kindly and said, "Benefactor Gu, the fast meal is ready, please wash your hands first."
Beside the dining hall, the young monk brought a wooden basin to clean their hands one by one.
The monks in the temple are particular about fasting meals. The master abbot sits on the throne in the hall, and the monks sit on both sides.Before breaking the fast, a young monk knocked on the big wooden fish hanging in the corridor of the temple.
The hammer was beating with a sound, and the Buddhists practiced diligently and forgot to sleep and eat.
When the knocking and hanging is over, the offering ceremony will be held.When the ceremony is complete, the fasting person will be seated again under the reminder of the little monk.
At this moment, the sitting position is that the abbot is close to the Buddha statue first, and the rest of the teachers in the temple are seated in turn, with male and female pilgrims on their own side.
In this way, one side is headed by the host patron, Xi Yuan.
Wei Rong is in the middle.
Wei Xiaoli was ranked third, with Zong Quan and Cheng Mulei behind.
The other side was led by He Jiaqi.
Sprawl is also centered.
Yu An'an and He Jiaqi's accompanying female assistants were the last.
Just now on the way to the dining hall, the little monk kindly instructed the dining etiquette, "Benefactors, if you need to add food during the fasting, please bring the empty bowl to the table without making a sound. There are two bowls for the fasting meal." , a bowl of vegetables and a bowl of rice. Don't speak loudly, don't laugh and make noise..."
Now that she was seated at the table, Man Sheng remembered the little monk's instructions, and she kept them in mind.
But Yu An'an was troubled: Is this fasting, or crossing the catastrophe?Yu An'an, who was deeply afraid of making mistakes, dared not speak up now.
Unexpectedly, the vegetarian rice is particularly fragrant and clean, and the rice grains are plump and delicious. Even though it is all vegetarian, it is also refreshing.Yu An'an had quickly put the bowl aside, and the little monk came to add more food.
Mansheng also added a bowl unconsciously.
Looking at the person opposite again, Wei Rong was kneeling and sitting in front of him, he only used one bowl and didn't add any more.
After fasting at noon, the master abbot welcomed them all to a pavilion for conversation.
The master abbot, named Shangshan, is the eminent monk here, and asked gently, "I don't know about the fasting meal just now, do you still use it?"
"Thank you, master, the fast food in Lingshan Temple is very delicious." Gu Xiyuan replied.
Everyone thought the same way, and Yu An'an said actively, "Master, the vegetarian food here tastes really good, it's all natural and nothing added!"
The master abbot nodded with a smile.
"Master, I want to know..." Yu An'an was a little embarrassed, but couldn't help asking, "Is there still a vegetarian meal tonight?"
"Although Buddhism advocates not eating after noon, there are changes now." The master replied, "It's just that you need to fetch water and chop firewood yourself for the evening fast. As for staying overnight, please forgive me. As for the guest rooms, I don't know how to arrange them. ?”
It is normal for husband and wife to live in the same room, but now there is another couple in this group who are lovers!
Isn't it Wei Rong and Lin Mansheng?
When Wei Rong heard this, he raised his eyes and looked over, and the eyes fell on Lin Mansheng without any haste.
Man Sheng twisted his mind, could it be that they still need to live in one room?
"There are not many wing rooms in Lingshan Temple, so tonight, Vice President Lin, I'll share with you." He Jiaqi said with a smile suddenly.
When Wei Rong heard this, he thanked her, "Mrs. Gu, please take care of her tonight. She likes to kick the quilt at night."
"..." Man Sheng was speechless, he was still so open in front of the abbot!
But obviously she had already said to withdraw from Chengquan, and she clearly remembered that he said to her: If you leave, never come back.
What is the relationship between them now.
……
When Gu Xiyuan heard this, the expression on his handsome face quietly froze.
All of a sudden, he seemed to directly explain the relationship, He Jiaqi said with a smile, "Boss Wei hasn't married Vice President Lin yet, so he loves her so much and treats her like his wife! Vice President Lin, I'm so envious! "
"The remaining rooms can be allocated again." Gu Xiyuan answered the arrangement, and everyone had no objection.
After arranging the place to live for the night, Zong Quan said, "Master, this is a little favor from Mr. Wei."
What Zong Quan sent was a check, and Yu An'an looked at it with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but be speechless: Mr. Wei, you are so generous everywhere you go!
The abbot, Amitabha Buddha, said, "Almsgiver, monks, these are external things."
"Master, I'm sorry that so many people came to disturb you today. We are ordinary people, so we don't know the rules. We just want to add some incense money, and hope that the master will be fulfilled." Wei Rong said in a warm voice.
The master abbot still didn't accept it, "Everything is fine in the small temple, and there is nothing missing. The benefactor has already added a lot of incense before."
"Mr. Gu used to come here often." Wei Xiaoli finally understood.
He Jiaqi responded, "Xi Yuan and Master Abbot are old friends."
"Mr. Wei, it's fine if you think about it." Gu Xiyuan tactfully refused on behalf of the abbot.
However, Wei Rong said with deep eyes, "Master, please leave the incense money. If you meet good men and women who are in trouble, you can also help them. It should be a blessing for us."
In this way, the master abbot saw that he was really sincere, so he asked the little monk to take over.
While everyone was chatting, Yu An'an asked, "Master, is the wish in Lingshan Temple really magical? Then can my wish come true?"
"Secretary Yu, what is your wish?" Wei Xiaoli asked.
Yu Anan said cleverly, "Staff Wei, if you say your wish, it won't work!"
"My benefactor, it's because of fate that you came to the small temple today. Everything is a destiny. Sometimes in destiny, there must be something, and there is no time in destiny. Don't force it..." The words of the master abbot are always full of Zen.
Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.
Man Sheng recited these words silently, her eyebrows furrowed inadvertently.
Everyone was listening, and suddenly the abbot looked at Lin Mansheng and said, "Female benefactor, I think you are a little troubled?"
Man Sheng was suddenly called out by the master, and became the focus of the moment, "..."
"Mansheng, is it because you feel unwell?" Gu Xiyuan asked with concern, and He Jiaqi also said, "Vice President Lin, if you feel unwell, you have to speak up!"
"I'm not uncomfortable..." In fact, Man Sheng didn't know what he was thinking, but his whole body was empty, but why could the master see through it at a glance?
Wei Rong raised his eyes to look at her, pursed his thin lips slightly, and did not make a sound.
Yu Anan smiled intently from the side, "I guess the vice president must also be wondering whether his wish will come true!"
Under everyone's curious gaze, Mansheng suddenly smiled and said, "In this world, wishes are those that cannot be fulfilled, and those that can be fulfilled are not counted. In fact, it is not necessary to realize it. Sometimes it is good to keep it in mind."
Upon hearing this, the master abbot smiled and nodded in approval, "This female benefactor is very wise."
In fact, how can there be any wisdom roots in Mansheng?
But after growing up, I finally learned to be bearish.
……
Afterwards, the master abbot accompanied the group of people to study the Dharma for a while, until the young monk reminded that it was time to recite sutras in the afternoon, and everyone temporarily bid farewell to the abbot.
After the abbot left, there was nothing else to do, He Jiaqi suggested, "Why don't we play chess?"
This proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, so the little monk was asked to fetch the chessboard from the temple.
The black and white pieces had already been placed on the chess board, and the question followed. Yu Anan asked, "Who will play chess?"
"Secretary Yu, who will play chess?" Wei Xiaoli had previously fought against Gu Xiyuan, and he had already lost.But at the moment there is still Wei Rong, it can be a fierce battle, he thought for a while and said, "It's just that playing chess is too monotonous, why not add some bets?"
"What does Executive Wei want to bet on?" Gu Xiyuan asked.
"Just bet on the ratio of project share between Poly and Hengfeng, who is four and who is six." Wei Xiaoli said directly.
Ordinary people would only find it absurd to hear it, but it is too hasty to use the quota of a big project as a bet in a game of chess!But right now the temple is quiet, as if a hidden knight-errant swordsman is about to fight for his life, Gu Xiyuan replied, "We can have a game."
"Will April and Six be too unchallenging? Not as good as Sanqi?" He Jiaqi said with a smile, "Xi Yuan, I think Sanqi is also pretty good."
"I'm free." Gu Xiyuan had already accepted.
The gap between the pros and cons of this game was suddenly widened, but the arrow had to be launched, and Wei Xiaoli also responded, "Then let's start."
Immediately afterwards, He Jiaqi sat on a stone chair where the chess game was played, "Vice President Lin, let me play a game with you."
Unexpectedly, He Jiaqi was the first to bear the brunt and declared war on Lin Mansheng!
This is no joke, it's a project with huge sums of money, she and He Jiaqi are playing games?
Seeing He Jiaqi sitting down, Gu Xiyuan didn't make a sound.
Not to be outdone, she also chose to sit down, but immediately said, "Of course I am willing to play a game with Mrs. Gu, but I am not good at chess, so I will ask for help later. If you are not allowed to ask for advice, then this game I can't accompany you anymore."
All Man Sheng could think of was this move!
"Yes, but there are only three chances." He Jiaqi agreed, "Xi Yuan, you can help me too."
Wei Xiaoli immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not relax his vigilance.
Wei Rong Momo stood aside, but kept silent.
The chess game has already started, He Jiaqi's chess skills are indeed good, but Mansheng is very cautious.She has never been so serious, this round cannot be lost no matter what!
So at this time, Mansheng asked Wei Xiaoli for advice.
He Jiaqi was guided by Gu Xiyuan, and he had gained the upper hand after the first round. Wei Xiaoli lost to Gu Xiyuan, so he couldn't conquer, "Vice President Lin, there is another person next to you, go and ask him for advice!"
Of course Man Sheng knows about Wei Rong's chess skills.But from the beginning to the present, he insisted on saying a word, as if a scholar with two sleeves does not care about world affairs.
Mansheng was a little anxious, she couldn't keep silent now, she opened her mouth and asked shamelessly, taking a second chance, "Mr. Wei, what's the next step?"
Wei Rong stood a little behind, and the female voice he heard was so light but also so soft.
"What did you say?" Wei Rong moved his lips, and finally said, "I didn't hear."
How could he not hear?
Everyone around should have heard it!
Man Sheng didn't care about those self-esteem and pride, she shouted again, "Teach me! What's the next step?"
He was holding a fan in his hand, which was a paper fan that Zong Quan had found for him. It was a bit hot in the summer afternoon, and he was fanning it in his spare time.The paper fan closed suddenly, and the tip of the folding fan brushed across her cheek, and landed gently on a place on the chessboard, pointing the country for her.
After only one step, Wei Rong said, "Understood?"
Man Sheng looked at the chess board with deep eyes, and suddenly became clear, "Yeah!"
After another half hour, the chess surface reversed, and the overgrown chess had already gained the upper hand!
He Jiaqi felt unbelievable, how could he reverse the disadvantage in an instant?
Gu Xiyuan was silently surprised: She could understand his intentions just by pointing out a word?What kind of company should it be to create such a tacit understanding now?
……
He Jiaqi found it very difficult.
If it is a single round of chess, she is much better than Lin Mansheng.But because of Wei Rong's guidance, the situation was reversed.He Jiaqi was unwilling to admit defeat, and she also used a second chance, "Xi Yuan..."
Gu Xiyuan's eyes fell, dozens of chess moves flashed through his mind quickly.
With Gu Xiyuan's suggestion, He Jiaqi made progress to catch up and turn defeat into victory.
Sprawl had only one chance left.
Seeing that the chess game is over half, if you don't catch up, I'm afraid you will lose!
"Wei Rong..." Mansheng forgot their identities at this moment, she almost couldn't help shouting, "Come and teach me!"
Wei Rong raised his lips lightly, his eyes settled down and pointed at the tip of his fan again.
Mansheng continued to play chess.
But it didn't take long for He Jiaqi to use up his third chance!
Both of them have exhausted their chances of calling for help. This game has been played for a long time, so long that Yu An'an and others are worried about it!After finishing the results and counting the number of items, He Jiaqi smiled and said, "It seems that I won a small victory, and I won——!"
Man Sheng sat on the stone chair and saw that she lost!
That's right, even though it was only a slight difference, she still lost!
How can it be?
With his advice, she shouldn't get it wrong, how could she still lose?
Mansheng couldn't figure it out, and what was more anxious in his heart was: the project share was also taken away, and Poly only took [-]%!
"I lost." Wei Xiaoli was also puzzled, it was obviously a good game of chess, how could he lose in the end?In fact, Lin Mansheng's chess moves were not wrong, and he completely followed Wei Rong's instructions... Although he hesitated in his heart, Wei Xiaoli responded, "I would like to bet and admit defeat, Mr. Gu, congratulations to Hengfeng for winning [-]%!"
"Accepted." Gu Xiyuan didn't seem too happy, because he was also questioning.
"Mr. Gu is very lucky to have such a virtuous wife as Mrs. Gu." Wei Rong slowly praised.
He Jiaqi smiled back, "It's just luck."
Why win with such a thin advantage?
Obviously, she felt that she would almost lose...
"Several benefactors, it's time to fetch water and chop firewood..." The young monk came to remind again, and everyone left the pavilion and went to the backyard of the dining room.
In the backyard, a group of people were assigned to work.
Mansheng turned around and saw Wei Xiaoli, and apologized privately, "Staff Wei, I'm really sorry, I lost [-]% of the profit ratio for Poly just now because I lost..."
"Vice President Lin, if you really want to apologize, why not go to President Wei." Wei Xiaoli said instead.
Man Sheng thought about it, and it seemed that he should also go to him to apologize.Before Wei Xiaoli left to fetch water, Man Sheng turned to look for Captain Rong again, who took an ax and was about to chop wood.With the big ax in his hand, coupled with his handsome face and tall figure, there is a strange and alternative feeling.
Man Sheng called to him, "I was playing chess just now, I..."
"I'm very busy now, what's the matter, tell me when you're free tonight!" Wei Rong replied to her, and went to chop firewood.
Wait until the evening is empty?Wouldn't it be better to wait until before going to sleep?
Sprawl began to worry again.
At the corner, there were two people standing, just happened to see the scene just now, and vaguely heard their conversation.
With empty hands, He Jiaqi looked at Gu Xiyuan who was carrying the bucket, and joked with a smile, "Miss Lin will lose chess today. It was the captain's deliberate intention. He probably wanted to be alone in private. It's really a clever plan!"
Gu Xiyuan gripped the handle of the bucket tightly, only at this moment did he realize the deep meaning hidden in it.
Some people play chess, they play chess.
Some people play chess, but what they play is a game!
……
In the evening of that day, everyone divided their labors, carrying water, chopping firewood and making a fire for cooking.The little monks were there to help, mostly the men contributed, and the women were left alone.
He Jiaqi pulled Lin Mansheng over and said, "Let's chop vegetables, this kind of thing is not something their men can do!"
In the dining room, He Jiaqi washed the freshly picked vegetables.
Mansheng cuts the lotus root.
The two women cooperated very well, and Yu An'an and another female assistant helped each other.After the dishes are washed and cut, they will be handed over to the monks in the dining room to cook, and the task will be successfully concluded.
"Not yet?" Gu Xiyuan walked in to have a look.
"It's all ready." He Jiaqi replied, but when he turned his head, he suddenly found that Lin Mansheng's finger was bleeding, "Vice President Lin, did you cut your finger?"
Man Sheng didn't even know when he cut it, but after He Jiaqi reminded him, he realized that his finger really cut a cut, and bright red blood flowed down!
"It's okay, it will stop after a while..." Mansheng was about to wash it off, but before it was too late, Gu Xiyuan had already rushed straight in front of him!
Gu Xiyuan grabbed her hand and said angrily, "What did you do? You cut your hand while cutting vegetables? I knew you would not be allowed to do these things! Come here!"
Gu Xiyuan forcibly pulled Lin Mansheng to wash her wound, but He Jiaqi froze in place, unable to recover, "..."
Mansheng was also stunned, and when she woke up, she hurriedly said, "It's okay! It was just accidentally cut!"
"Mansheng, do you have tetanus? You should get an injection!" Gu Xiyuan said solemnly.
"It's really all right..." Mansheng had no choice but to explain again, but Gu Xiyuan still held his hand tightly.
At this moment, both Wei Rong and Wei Xiaoli also came in to see what happened.
The scene at the moment is really shocking, Wei Xiaoli stopped, "What's wrong?"
"Her hand was accidentally cut..." He Jiaqi said instinctively.
Wei Rong fixed his eyes, he only saw Lin Mansheng's hand being held by another man, and he was still checking her wound!Immediately, he took a step forward, and walked in front of the two of them in a few strides!
His hand was holding her hand at the same time, grabbing it from Gu Xiyuan's hand abruptly!
"Injured?" Wei Rong asked calmly, Mansheng hurriedly said, "It's okay..."
How many times does she have to say it before they understand that she is really fine?
However, in the blink of an eye, he had already taken her hand and sucked it in his mouth.The mouth was warm and moist, with a lingering heat, and the fingertips seemed to twitch the nerve endings. When she touched the tip of his tongue, it was as itchy as scratching the heart!
Mansheng was even more shocked!
The people around were shocked again!
After sucking for a while, Wei Rong just let go, and said naturally, "Stop it."
……
What is he doing!
Does he know that there are so many people watching here?
Sprawl fell silent.
Gu Xiyuan's face became more and more solemn, and He Jiaqi on the side forgot to joke. Only Wei Xiaoli was still an outsider, but he also felt that this moment was really awkward, so he could only resolve the deadlock and said, "It's fine if there is no bloodshed..."
Only then did Man Sheng wake up, she withdrew her hand, but her cut finger was still extremely hot!
Wei Rong said with a smile, "I only know how to stop the bleeding."
Who would do such an intimate thing openly like him, yet still be so grandiose!
He Jiaqi also came back to his senses and smiled and said, "Hey, if I knew this, Xi Yuan didn't have to be so anxious. Xi Yuan, don't worry about you being the big brother, Vice President Lin has President Wei now."
She already has him.
Gu Xiyuan heard it clearly, but he didn't respond, he just said, "Let's go to the dining hall."
The fasting meal at night is the same as at noon, and the meal etiquette is passed one by one to taste the fasting meal.It's just this meal, but everyone has their own thoughts, and the dining hall is surprisingly quiet.
After the fasting meal, the abbot asked the female patrons to go back to wash and rest, after all, they have to leave tomorrow.
Man Sheng and He Jiaqi were in the same room, so she picked up her bag and went.
The men wanted to disperse, but Gu Xiyuan stepped forward and said to Wei Rong, "Mr. Wei, do you mind taking a step to talk?"
Wei Rong greeted him, "Mr. Gu will show you the way."
Wei Xiaoli watched them leave, he withdrew his gaze, and only hoped that there would be no more accidents, like a fight that shouldn't have happened.
The two men wandered around the temple, but they didn't know where they were going.
In front of a pavilion, the young monk saw Gu Xiyuan, recognized him and said, "Benefactor Gu, I found the Buddhist scriptures you were looking for last time for you."
This pavilion is the scripture storage pavilion of the temple. Gu Xiyuan stopped walking and said, "Mr. Wei, are you interested in visiting?"
"The Buddhist scriptures, I really want to take a look." Wei Rong replied.
The Sutra Pavilion in the temple contains many ancient scriptures.After entering the pavilion, the little monk found the Buddhist scripture for Gu Xiyuan, "Benefactor Gu, the Buddhist scripture you want."
Gu Xiyuan took it, and leaned against the window of the pavilion to browse for a while.Looking up and seeing Wei Rong walking in front of the scripture bookshelf, he said, "Mr. Wei is also interested in scriptures?"
"I remember it was written in a scripture—" Wei Rong said indifferently, "Buddha said that there are eight sufferings in life, birth, old age, illness, death, parting from love, long-lasting grievances, what you can't ask for, and what you can't let go."
"Among the eight sufferings, being unable to let go of this one is the last suffering." Wei Rong's cold male voice resounded through the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. He never looked back, but the words pointed directly at Gu Xiyuan, "Mr. Gu, why do you have to do all kinds of things?" Can't let go!"
If you are not a fool, you can see Gu Xiyuan's thoughts!
Before, it was just speculation, but just now when she injured her finger, his care and love are clearly known to the world!And his ex-wife, who was still on the sidelines, didn't know how to react, so she could only watch all this in a daze!
Gu Xiyuan can't let go, anyone can understand!
Gu Xiyuan, however, was at ease, never panicked when facing him, maybe he also wanted to confront him head-on, "If she is happy and living a happy life, how can I not let her go?"
"How do you know that she is unhappy?" Wei Rong closed the scriptures and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that she always tells you about anything unhappy? Man Sheng, she is not such a girl."
"She really won't." Gu Xiyuan replied, "Even if she is unhappy, she will only say that it is her own problem! But you, did you give her happiness? I went out to play today. Since early in the morning, I haven't seen her smile again. Pass!"
This sentence seemed to wake him up, Wei Rong recalled it carefully.
Reminiscing about whether she had ever laughed along the way after meeting each other early this morning.
In fact, there have been, but the smile is too shallow!
"Even the master abbot finds that she has troubles!" Gu Xiyuan said again, "Wei Rong, if what you brought her is nothing more than this, then I ask you to withdraw from her world!"
quit?
"Heh." Wei Rong laughed, and he looked back slowly, "So that you, Gu Xiyuan, can take advantage of her and take her over?"
"I will make her happy!" Gu Xiyuan said firmly.
"Mr. Gu, you have finally admitted that your thoughts about her are really extraordinary!" Wei Rong narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "You have misguided thoughts about your sister!"
"She was never my sister." In an instant, as if unwilling to hide any more, Gu Xiyuan stared at the emotion that had been suppressed all the time, "Where is the blood relationship between me and her? I am moved by her." Nian, it is fair and aboveboard!"
"While taking your wife with you, you are talking about being aboveboard." Wei Rong asked with a smile, "I really admire it!"
"I can announce the news of my divorce tomorrow!" Gu Xiyuan said firmly.
"You just declare, but she is my woman, this fact will not change!" Wei Rong ignored it, "Even if she dies, she still belongs to me!"
He is cursing her!Gu Xiyuan was depressed, and said in an increasingly cold male voice, "If she doesn't want to follow you, stay by your side! She doesn't! Mr. Wei, do you dare to ask her if she still wants to stay with you?" around you--!"
"Mr. Gu, your aggressive method is useless to me! I advise you to take care of your wife. Although you are divorced in name, she has affection and righteousness for you. You should not be a betrayer!" With a sneer, the two of them retorted like needlepoints without retreating from each other!
In the midst of the fierce confrontation, the little monk knocked on the door and entered, "Benefactor Gu, the master abbot has finished his evening class, please go over and talk..."
Only then did Gu Xiyuan slowly come back to his senses, and said to Wei Rong, "Mr. Wei is free to do so!"
After Gu Xiyuan left, the monk guarding the Sutra Pavilion asked, "This benefactor, do you still want to read Buddhist scriptures?"
However, Wei Rong didn't respond again, and the monk closed the door, leaving him alone.
There was a fragrance in the Sutra Pavilion, and a wisp of sandalwood wafted out, but it couldn't make people calm down. Suddenly, her questioning words sounded in her ears-I see, then I will fulfill it, I will quit, is that okay!
……
In the wing room of the temple, Mansheng came out of the bath.
He Jiaqi didn't know where he went, but now he came back and sat in front of the window of the wing room, looking at the bright moon outside the window, saw her coming out of the shower, turned around and asked with a smile, "Did you wash?"
Mansheng nodded and said, "Miss He, aren't you cold?"
Mansheng took a blanket for her to cover, He Jiaqi felt her kindness, she didn't refuse, but just handed her a letter.
"You wrote this." He Jiaqi said softly.
Man Sheng was taken aback, the familiar handwriting on this letter was none other than himself!
Sender: Lin Mansheng.
Recipient: Gu Xiyuan.
The clear envelope opened the sprawling memory, as if going back to the past years, when he was young, he wrote a letter and sent it to him in another city.
Even with that, I sent all my thoughts to him.
It was her childhood love.
……
However, how could such a long-ago letter be in He Jiaqi's hands?Man Sheng was a little dazed, and because of the reappearance of the letter, it brought back countless memories.
"Aren't you going to open it and have a look?" He Jiaqi asked softly, and said to himself, "Let me open it for you."
He Jiaqi's hands trembled a little, maybe it was because of how disgraceful it is to open letters privately, or maybe it was because it was inevitable to make people feel palpitating to completely reveal this love that did not belong to him.
It was too forceful and too eager, so the envelopes were torn apart, and with a "hiss—" He Jiaqi apologized and said, "Sorry, I tore up your letter...but fortunately, the letter paper is still intact... "
As He Jiaqi said, she took out the letter. She unfolded the letter paper, read it intently, and said after reading it for a long time, "Actually, he didn't write anything, but he kept it all the time. Give it to you."
Spinning stayed in place, and she bent down slightly to take it.
She saw that the entire sheet of paper was covered with handwriting, which was written by her when she was young.
"Why..." Mansheng finally asked.
"Why is it in my hand?" He Jiaqi answered with a smile, "I just found it by accident. Do you know where your letter is?"
How could Mansheng know, He Jiaqi continued, "It's in this temple, the Buddhist scripture pavilion of the temple! There are many more here, all here!"
As He Jiaqi said, he took out another wooden box, "Not just these, there are more in the Sutra Pavilion!"
Her letters are deposited in the temple?
"It's absurd, isn't it?" When He Jiaqi learned about it back then, he thought it was too outrageous, "He funded the construction of the Sutra Pavilion in Lingshan Temple. He has a good relationship with the abbot here, so he often comes here. You I put the letter in that Buddhist scripture pavilion, what kind of thought did he put into you to achieve this?"
This is a temple, a temple where the great Buddha and Bodhisattva are located. Incense is offered every day, accompanied by morning bells and evening drums. The letters she sent to him are all hidden here. through.
It seems that his whole heart is praying together in this temple.
Maybe it's to pray for her good health, maybe it's to pray for her life's happiness, or maybe it's still praying, maybe there is a possibility of renewing the relationship.
Before the Buddha, what exactly did he ask for, and how many times did he ask for it.
No one knows.
But only from these letters, although she was never mentioned in a single word, this girl has always lived in Gu Xiyuan's heart!
I can't get rid of it!
Man Sheng is holding the letter at this moment, her ears are buzzing, everything happened suddenly, remembering that he was still by her side, remembering when he and her parted, and remembering every day of their correspondence...
"Miss Lin, I really envy you." Such familiar words made Mansheng feel stunned. Once upon a time, she also said the same to another girl.
At this moment, it turned out to be someone else talking to me.
Buddha, is there really reincarnation in the world?
"He always remembers you, and he will never forget you." He Jiaqi whispered again, as if he recognized him, "I have used it for so many years, but I can't make him forget you."
What a crime, who said that all men in the world are fickle?
But be kind to yourself.
She is not reconciled, but what can she do?
Mansheng looked down at the letter, and she slowly handed it back, "This is no longer mine..."
"If you want to pay it back, you have to pay it back yourself!" But He Jiaqi had already got up and walked into the bathroom.
Man Sheng holds the letter, she can't keep it, but she can't destroy it either.In a moment of contemplation, it was a mess, but I could only pick up the wooden box and return it to the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, as if nothing had happened.
……
"The female benefactor!"
"I'm here to borrow a few scriptures..." Man Sheng found an excuse, and pushed the door open to enter the scripture storage pavilion.
"Crackling——" the wooden door was pushed open, and the Sutra Library was huge, but Man Sheng didn't know where to put it. Where were these letters?
The bookshelves of scriptures were stacked one upon another, and it was impossible to find a place to put them. Liansheng stood on tiptoe, thinking that he could just put it in a random place.
But just as he was trying to raise his hand to place it, someone suddenly reached out from behind and grabbed the wooden box!
A male voice sounded from above, "What are you holding in your hand!"
Man Sheng was startled, she never thought that there would be people here!
She immediately turned her head to look, and found that he appeared behind her at some unknown time!
——It is none other than Wei Rong!
The candles in the Sutra Pavilion were brightly lit, but they were not as bright as when the lights were turned on. Instead, clusters of candles were faintly lit, like blue lanterns, which made people shudder!
Man Sheng's heart trembled, his hands loosened all of a sudden, Wei Rong had already snatched the wooden box!
"Nothing! This is someone else's property, I just came to pay it back..." She didn't want him to see it, and she didn't know how to explain it.But at this time, neither retreat nor advance!
Wei Rong looked down at her, as if she didn't want to be seen.Looking at the wooden box in my hand, it is obviously some age, not something that will be available in recent years.
Seeing that she was about to come to snatch her, Wei Rong moved his finger, and the lid of the wooden box was flipped. Suddenly, the wooden box toppled because of losing its center of gravity, and countless letters flew down like petals in midsummer!
Man Sheng stood there dumbstruck, only to see letters falling down one after another!
In front of Wei Rong's eyes, it was like a drizzle suddenly!
When the letters were scattered all over the floor, Mansheng immediately bent over to pick them up. Wei Rong looked down and found that the letters were all with the same handwriting.
Lin Mansheng, Gu Xiyuan!
There was another one, stuck in a wooden box, without an envelope, just a single piece of letter paper.
The folded letter paper was taken down by Wei Rong, and he put the wooden box on the scripture stand!
He opened it to see what was written on the letter.
But everywhere, there are only three words - Gu Xiyuan!
Gu Xiyuan, who has a whole sheet of letter paper, writes neatly and delicately, and every stroke is extremely serious.
You can even vaguely see that the background of the letter paper is a fluttering butterfly.
Butterfly, Gu Xiyuan...
Wei Rong's eyes were fixed for a long time, but suddenly, he discovered something, an unexpected thing, something that he would never have thought about if it didn't happen to overlap at this moment!
If the word butterfly is written, it will be exactly thirty strokes.
There are three characters of Gu Xiyuan, but there are exactly thirty strokes!
For thousands of years, everything can be clearly seen in my memory. That year, Lin Mansheng actually liked Gu Xiyuan so wholeheartedly.
After a long silence, I finally recovered my voice, but at the end I was almost forced to say, "Lin Mansheng, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"
(End of this chapter)
Under his sudden questioning, Mansheng couldn't make a sound.I can only see his eyes, so clear and eye-catching in the main hall of this sunny temple!
"Vice President..." Yu An'an's voice came from outside the gate of the temple, probably because he couldn't find Lin Mansheng outside, so he came to look for it inside the hall.
Hearing the shout, Mansheng broke free anxiously, "Someone is coming! Let go!"
Wei Rong's brows were tightly locked, but he finally let go.
As soon as Yu An'an's figure flashed at the entrance of the main hall, he saw a man and a woman in front of the Buddha and Bodhisattva.
"Mr. Wei..." Yu An'an was surprised, because she didn't expect Mr. Wei to be here.
The two knelt down on the futon one after another, and were about to worship the gods.
Man Sheng turned back and said, "Wait a minute."
Yu An'an stopped at the door, watched Lin Mansheng kowtow, and then looked at Wei Rong. He straightened his back and looked at the big Buddha and Bodhisattva. He didn't know if he was meditating or looking at each other.
Man Sheng clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and prayed silently: Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, he didn't intend to offend, and he was disrespectful in front of you, please forgive me.
After Man Sheng finished prostrating, she got up slowly, glanced at him when she turned around, and found that he was still kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva, his eyes were closed tightly, his thick long black eyelashes were covered with a fan-shaped shadow, and his face was profiled under the candlelight. Against the red light, I don't know what to ask for.
But the next second, he suddenly stood up, "Let's go, don't make people wait too long."
After finishing speaking, Wei Rong left the main hall first, and Man Sheng also walked out immediately.
In the courtyard outside the temple, a group of people were waiting.
At noon, the pilgrims had already dispersed, because Lingshan Temple has an unwritten rule that when the meal time comes, the door will be temporarily closed.So, at this moment, it was quiet again.
Seeing them approaching, Wei Xiaoli smiled and said, "Vice President Lin, why are you so slow in praying to Buddha, I thought you were lost."
This is definitely a joke, Man Sheng replied, "There were a lot of people just now, so I waited for a while."
Gu Xiyuan and He Jiaqi stood together, he had been looking at them just now, almost walking side by side.However, he also noticed that Lin Mansheng's expression was slightly strange.In the main hall of the temple after they left, did he do something to her again?
"Executive Wei, Vice President Lin is using his heart." He Jiaqi smiled and said, "Don't fight with others and know how to be humble. This is also the Buddha nature of Buddhism. Next, there is probably a very important wish to make, so It's only been so long."
"Mr. Wei, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?" He Jiaqi turned his gaze and asked Wei Rong.
Wei Rong replied, "I don't have any wishes, but there is one problem."
He Jiaqi felt very curious, everyone looked at Wei Rong, and he said with deep eyes, "Only the Bodhisattva knows this question."
Man Sheng was a little hesitant, besides the Bodhisattva, there was her at the moment, and she also heard his question...
"May I ask Mr. Wei, did you get an answer to the question you asked the Bodhisattva for advice?" Gu Xiyuan then asked aloud.
"There are some problems of ordinary people that Bodhisattvas can't solve." Wei Rong replied with a smile, "However, the sky is destined to be irreversible. Whoever owns it is whoever owns it. It can't be escaped. It is like cooperating with Hengfeng. It is imperative."
Everyone at the scene knew about the project, but was it really just that?
While looking at each other, the little monk found them and said, "Several benefactors, it's time for fasting. The abbot invites everyone to go to the dining hall."
……
In the dining hall of Lingshan Temple, the master abbot is already there.
Seeing a group of benefactors coming, the abbot smiled kindly and said, "Benefactor Gu, the fast meal is ready, please wash your hands first."
Beside the dining hall, the young monk brought a wooden basin to clean their hands one by one.
The monks in the temple are particular about fasting meals. The master abbot sits on the throne in the hall, and the monks sit on both sides.Before breaking the fast, a young monk knocked on the big wooden fish hanging in the corridor of the temple.
The hammer was beating with a sound, and the Buddhists practiced diligently and forgot to sleep and eat.
When the knocking and hanging is over, the offering ceremony will be held.When the ceremony is complete, the fasting person will be seated again under the reminder of the little monk.
At this moment, the sitting position is that the abbot is close to the Buddha statue first, and the rest of the teachers in the temple are seated in turn, with male and female pilgrims on their own side.
In this way, one side is headed by the host patron, Xi Yuan.
Wei Rong is in the middle.
Wei Xiaoli was ranked third, with Zong Quan and Cheng Mulei behind.
The other side was led by He Jiaqi.
Sprawl is also centered.
Yu An'an and He Jiaqi's accompanying female assistants were the last.
Just now on the way to the dining hall, the little monk kindly instructed the dining etiquette, "Benefactors, if you need to add food during the fasting, please bring the empty bowl to the table without making a sound. There are two bowls for the fasting meal." , a bowl of vegetables and a bowl of rice. Don't speak loudly, don't laugh and make noise..."
Now that she was seated at the table, Man Sheng remembered the little monk's instructions, and she kept them in mind.
But Yu An'an was troubled: Is this fasting, or crossing the catastrophe?Yu An'an, who was deeply afraid of making mistakes, dared not speak up now.
Unexpectedly, the vegetarian rice is particularly fragrant and clean, and the rice grains are plump and delicious. Even though it is all vegetarian, it is also refreshing.Yu An'an had quickly put the bowl aside, and the little monk came to add more food.
Mansheng also added a bowl unconsciously.
Looking at the person opposite again, Wei Rong was kneeling and sitting in front of him, he only used one bowl and didn't add any more.
After fasting at noon, the master abbot welcomed them all to a pavilion for conversation.
The master abbot, named Shangshan, is the eminent monk here, and asked gently, "I don't know about the fasting meal just now, do you still use it?"
"Thank you, master, the fast food in Lingshan Temple is very delicious." Gu Xiyuan replied.
Everyone thought the same way, and Yu An'an said actively, "Master, the vegetarian food here tastes really good, it's all natural and nothing added!"
The master abbot nodded with a smile.
"Master, I want to know..." Yu An'an was a little embarrassed, but couldn't help asking, "Is there still a vegetarian meal tonight?"
"Although Buddhism advocates not eating after noon, there are changes now." The master replied, "It's just that you need to fetch water and chop firewood yourself for the evening fast. As for staying overnight, please forgive me. As for the guest rooms, I don't know how to arrange them. ?”
It is normal for husband and wife to live in the same room, but now there is another couple in this group who are lovers!
Isn't it Wei Rong and Lin Mansheng?
When Wei Rong heard this, he raised his eyes and looked over, and the eyes fell on Lin Mansheng without any haste.
Man Sheng twisted his mind, could it be that they still need to live in one room?
"There are not many wing rooms in Lingshan Temple, so tonight, Vice President Lin, I'll share with you." He Jiaqi said with a smile suddenly.
When Wei Rong heard this, he thanked her, "Mrs. Gu, please take care of her tonight. She likes to kick the quilt at night."
"..." Man Sheng was speechless, he was still so open in front of the abbot!
But obviously she had already said to withdraw from Chengquan, and she clearly remembered that he said to her: If you leave, never come back.
What is the relationship between them now.
……
When Gu Xiyuan heard this, the expression on his handsome face quietly froze.
All of a sudden, he seemed to directly explain the relationship, He Jiaqi said with a smile, "Boss Wei hasn't married Vice President Lin yet, so he loves her so much and treats her like his wife! Vice President Lin, I'm so envious! "
"The remaining rooms can be allocated again." Gu Xiyuan answered the arrangement, and everyone had no objection.
After arranging the place to live for the night, Zong Quan said, "Master, this is a little favor from Mr. Wei."
What Zong Quan sent was a check, and Yu An'an looked at it with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but be speechless: Mr. Wei, you are so generous everywhere you go!
The abbot, Amitabha Buddha, said, "Almsgiver, monks, these are external things."
"Master, I'm sorry that so many people came to disturb you today. We are ordinary people, so we don't know the rules. We just want to add some incense money, and hope that the master will be fulfilled." Wei Rong said in a warm voice.
The master abbot still didn't accept it, "Everything is fine in the small temple, and there is nothing missing. The benefactor has already added a lot of incense before."
"Mr. Gu used to come here often." Wei Xiaoli finally understood.
He Jiaqi responded, "Xi Yuan and Master Abbot are old friends."
"Mr. Wei, it's fine if you think about it." Gu Xiyuan tactfully refused on behalf of the abbot.
However, Wei Rong said with deep eyes, "Master, please leave the incense money. If you meet good men and women who are in trouble, you can also help them. It should be a blessing for us."
In this way, the master abbot saw that he was really sincere, so he asked the little monk to take over.
While everyone was chatting, Yu An'an asked, "Master, is the wish in Lingshan Temple really magical? Then can my wish come true?"
"Secretary Yu, what is your wish?" Wei Xiaoli asked.
Yu Anan said cleverly, "Staff Wei, if you say your wish, it won't work!"
"My benefactor, it's because of fate that you came to the small temple today. Everything is a destiny. Sometimes in destiny, there must be something, and there is no time in destiny. Don't force it..." The words of the master abbot are always full of Zen.
Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.
Man Sheng recited these words silently, her eyebrows furrowed inadvertently.
Everyone was listening, and suddenly the abbot looked at Lin Mansheng and said, "Female benefactor, I think you are a little troubled?"
Man Sheng was suddenly called out by the master, and became the focus of the moment, "..."
"Mansheng, is it because you feel unwell?" Gu Xiyuan asked with concern, and He Jiaqi also said, "Vice President Lin, if you feel unwell, you have to speak up!"
"I'm not uncomfortable..." In fact, Man Sheng didn't know what he was thinking, but his whole body was empty, but why could the master see through it at a glance?
Wei Rong raised his eyes to look at her, pursed his thin lips slightly, and did not make a sound.
Yu Anan smiled intently from the side, "I guess the vice president must also be wondering whether his wish will come true!"
Under everyone's curious gaze, Mansheng suddenly smiled and said, "In this world, wishes are those that cannot be fulfilled, and those that can be fulfilled are not counted. In fact, it is not necessary to realize it. Sometimes it is good to keep it in mind."
Upon hearing this, the master abbot smiled and nodded in approval, "This female benefactor is very wise."
In fact, how can there be any wisdom roots in Mansheng?
But after growing up, I finally learned to be bearish.
……
Afterwards, the master abbot accompanied the group of people to study the Dharma for a while, until the young monk reminded that it was time to recite sutras in the afternoon, and everyone temporarily bid farewell to the abbot.
After the abbot left, there was nothing else to do, He Jiaqi suggested, "Why don't we play chess?"
This proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, so the little monk was asked to fetch the chessboard from the temple.
The black and white pieces had already been placed on the chess board, and the question followed. Yu Anan asked, "Who will play chess?"
"Secretary Yu, who will play chess?" Wei Xiaoli had previously fought against Gu Xiyuan, and he had already lost.But at the moment there is still Wei Rong, it can be a fierce battle, he thought for a while and said, "It's just that playing chess is too monotonous, why not add some bets?"
"What does Executive Wei want to bet on?" Gu Xiyuan asked.
"Just bet on the ratio of project share between Poly and Hengfeng, who is four and who is six." Wei Xiaoli said directly.
Ordinary people would only find it absurd to hear it, but it is too hasty to use the quota of a big project as a bet in a game of chess!But right now the temple is quiet, as if a hidden knight-errant swordsman is about to fight for his life, Gu Xiyuan replied, "We can have a game."
"Will April and Six be too unchallenging? Not as good as Sanqi?" He Jiaqi said with a smile, "Xi Yuan, I think Sanqi is also pretty good."
"I'm free." Gu Xiyuan had already accepted.
The gap between the pros and cons of this game was suddenly widened, but the arrow had to be launched, and Wei Xiaoli also responded, "Then let's start."
Immediately afterwards, He Jiaqi sat on a stone chair where the chess game was played, "Vice President Lin, let me play a game with you."
Unexpectedly, He Jiaqi was the first to bear the brunt and declared war on Lin Mansheng!
This is no joke, it's a project with huge sums of money, she and He Jiaqi are playing games?
Seeing He Jiaqi sitting down, Gu Xiyuan didn't make a sound.
Not to be outdone, she also chose to sit down, but immediately said, "Of course I am willing to play a game with Mrs. Gu, but I am not good at chess, so I will ask for help later. If you are not allowed to ask for advice, then this game I can't accompany you anymore."
All Man Sheng could think of was this move!
"Yes, but there are only three chances." He Jiaqi agreed, "Xi Yuan, you can help me too."
Wei Xiaoli immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not relax his vigilance.
Wei Rong Momo stood aside, but kept silent.
The chess game has already started, He Jiaqi's chess skills are indeed good, but Mansheng is very cautious.She has never been so serious, this round cannot be lost no matter what!
So at this time, Mansheng asked Wei Xiaoli for advice.
He Jiaqi was guided by Gu Xiyuan, and he had gained the upper hand after the first round. Wei Xiaoli lost to Gu Xiyuan, so he couldn't conquer, "Vice President Lin, there is another person next to you, go and ask him for advice!"
Of course Man Sheng knows about Wei Rong's chess skills.But from the beginning to the present, he insisted on saying a word, as if a scholar with two sleeves does not care about world affairs.
Mansheng was a little anxious, she couldn't keep silent now, she opened her mouth and asked shamelessly, taking a second chance, "Mr. Wei, what's the next step?"
Wei Rong stood a little behind, and the female voice he heard was so light but also so soft.
"What did you say?" Wei Rong moved his lips, and finally said, "I didn't hear."
How could he not hear?
Everyone around should have heard it!
Man Sheng didn't care about those self-esteem and pride, she shouted again, "Teach me! What's the next step?"
He was holding a fan in his hand, which was a paper fan that Zong Quan had found for him. It was a bit hot in the summer afternoon, and he was fanning it in his spare time.The paper fan closed suddenly, and the tip of the folding fan brushed across her cheek, and landed gently on a place on the chessboard, pointing the country for her.
After only one step, Wei Rong said, "Understood?"
Man Sheng looked at the chess board with deep eyes, and suddenly became clear, "Yeah!"
After another half hour, the chess surface reversed, and the overgrown chess had already gained the upper hand!
He Jiaqi felt unbelievable, how could he reverse the disadvantage in an instant?
Gu Xiyuan was silently surprised: She could understand his intentions just by pointing out a word?What kind of company should it be to create such a tacit understanding now?
……
He Jiaqi found it very difficult.
If it is a single round of chess, she is much better than Lin Mansheng.But because of Wei Rong's guidance, the situation was reversed.He Jiaqi was unwilling to admit defeat, and she also used a second chance, "Xi Yuan..."
Gu Xiyuan's eyes fell, dozens of chess moves flashed through his mind quickly.
With Gu Xiyuan's suggestion, He Jiaqi made progress to catch up and turn defeat into victory.
Sprawl had only one chance left.
Seeing that the chess game is over half, if you don't catch up, I'm afraid you will lose!
"Wei Rong..." Mansheng forgot their identities at this moment, she almost couldn't help shouting, "Come and teach me!"
Wei Rong raised his lips lightly, his eyes settled down and pointed at the tip of his fan again.
Mansheng continued to play chess.
But it didn't take long for He Jiaqi to use up his third chance!
Both of them have exhausted their chances of calling for help. This game has been played for a long time, so long that Yu An'an and others are worried about it!After finishing the results and counting the number of items, He Jiaqi smiled and said, "It seems that I won a small victory, and I won——!"
Man Sheng sat on the stone chair and saw that she lost!
That's right, even though it was only a slight difference, she still lost!
How can it be?
With his advice, she shouldn't get it wrong, how could she still lose?
Mansheng couldn't figure it out, and what was more anxious in his heart was: the project share was also taken away, and Poly only took [-]%!
"I lost." Wei Xiaoli was also puzzled, it was obviously a good game of chess, how could he lose in the end?In fact, Lin Mansheng's chess moves were not wrong, and he completely followed Wei Rong's instructions... Although he hesitated in his heart, Wei Xiaoli responded, "I would like to bet and admit defeat, Mr. Gu, congratulations to Hengfeng for winning [-]%!"
"Accepted." Gu Xiyuan didn't seem too happy, because he was also questioning.
"Mr. Gu is very lucky to have such a virtuous wife as Mrs. Gu." Wei Rong slowly praised.
He Jiaqi smiled back, "It's just luck."
Why win with such a thin advantage?
Obviously, she felt that she would almost lose...
"Several benefactors, it's time to fetch water and chop firewood..." The young monk came to remind again, and everyone left the pavilion and went to the backyard of the dining room.
In the backyard, a group of people were assigned to work.
Mansheng turned around and saw Wei Xiaoli, and apologized privately, "Staff Wei, I'm really sorry, I lost [-]% of the profit ratio for Poly just now because I lost..."
"Vice President Lin, if you really want to apologize, why not go to President Wei." Wei Xiaoli said instead.
Man Sheng thought about it, and it seemed that he should also go to him to apologize.Before Wei Xiaoli left to fetch water, Man Sheng turned to look for Captain Rong again, who took an ax and was about to chop wood.With the big ax in his hand, coupled with his handsome face and tall figure, there is a strange and alternative feeling.
Man Sheng called to him, "I was playing chess just now, I..."
"I'm very busy now, what's the matter, tell me when you're free tonight!" Wei Rong replied to her, and went to chop firewood.
Wait until the evening is empty?Wouldn't it be better to wait until before going to sleep?
Sprawl began to worry again.
At the corner, there were two people standing, just happened to see the scene just now, and vaguely heard their conversation.
With empty hands, He Jiaqi looked at Gu Xiyuan who was carrying the bucket, and joked with a smile, "Miss Lin will lose chess today. It was the captain's deliberate intention. He probably wanted to be alone in private. It's really a clever plan!"
Gu Xiyuan gripped the handle of the bucket tightly, only at this moment did he realize the deep meaning hidden in it.
Some people play chess, they play chess.
Some people play chess, but what they play is a game!
……
In the evening of that day, everyone divided their labors, carrying water, chopping firewood and making a fire for cooking.The little monks were there to help, mostly the men contributed, and the women were left alone.
He Jiaqi pulled Lin Mansheng over and said, "Let's chop vegetables, this kind of thing is not something their men can do!"
In the dining room, He Jiaqi washed the freshly picked vegetables.
Mansheng cuts the lotus root.
The two women cooperated very well, and Yu An'an and another female assistant helped each other.After the dishes are washed and cut, they will be handed over to the monks in the dining room to cook, and the task will be successfully concluded.
"Not yet?" Gu Xiyuan walked in to have a look.
"It's all ready." He Jiaqi replied, but when he turned his head, he suddenly found that Lin Mansheng's finger was bleeding, "Vice President Lin, did you cut your finger?"
Man Sheng didn't even know when he cut it, but after He Jiaqi reminded him, he realized that his finger really cut a cut, and bright red blood flowed down!
"It's okay, it will stop after a while..." Mansheng was about to wash it off, but before it was too late, Gu Xiyuan had already rushed straight in front of him!
Gu Xiyuan grabbed her hand and said angrily, "What did you do? You cut your hand while cutting vegetables? I knew you would not be allowed to do these things! Come here!"
Gu Xiyuan forcibly pulled Lin Mansheng to wash her wound, but He Jiaqi froze in place, unable to recover, "..."
Mansheng was also stunned, and when she woke up, she hurriedly said, "It's okay! It was just accidentally cut!"
"Mansheng, do you have tetanus? You should get an injection!" Gu Xiyuan said solemnly.
"It's really all right..." Mansheng had no choice but to explain again, but Gu Xiyuan still held his hand tightly.
At this moment, both Wei Rong and Wei Xiaoli also came in to see what happened.
The scene at the moment is really shocking, Wei Xiaoli stopped, "What's wrong?"
"Her hand was accidentally cut..." He Jiaqi said instinctively.
Wei Rong fixed his eyes, he only saw Lin Mansheng's hand being held by another man, and he was still checking her wound!Immediately, he took a step forward, and walked in front of the two of them in a few strides!
His hand was holding her hand at the same time, grabbing it from Gu Xiyuan's hand abruptly!
"Injured?" Wei Rong asked calmly, Mansheng hurriedly said, "It's okay..."
How many times does she have to say it before they understand that she is really fine?
However, in the blink of an eye, he had already taken her hand and sucked it in his mouth.The mouth was warm and moist, with a lingering heat, and the fingertips seemed to twitch the nerve endings. When she touched the tip of his tongue, it was as itchy as scratching the heart!
Mansheng was even more shocked!
The people around were shocked again!
After sucking for a while, Wei Rong just let go, and said naturally, "Stop it."
……
What is he doing!
Does he know that there are so many people watching here?
Sprawl fell silent.
Gu Xiyuan's face became more and more solemn, and He Jiaqi on the side forgot to joke. Only Wei Xiaoli was still an outsider, but he also felt that this moment was really awkward, so he could only resolve the deadlock and said, "It's fine if there is no bloodshed..."
Only then did Man Sheng wake up, she withdrew her hand, but her cut finger was still extremely hot!
Wei Rong said with a smile, "I only know how to stop the bleeding."
Who would do such an intimate thing openly like him, yet still be so grandiose!
He Jiaqi also came back to his senses and smiled and said, "Hey, if I knew this, Xi Yuan didn't have to be so anxious. Xi Yuan, don't worry about you being the big brother, Vice President Lin has President Wei now."
She already has him.
Gu Xiyuan heard it clearly, but he didn't respond, he just said, "Let's go to the dining hall."
The fasting meal at night is the same as at noon, and the meal etiquette is passed one by one to taste the fasting meal.It's just this meal, but everyone has their own thoughts, and the dining hall is surprisingly quiet.
After the fasting meal, the abbot asked the female patrons to go back to wash and rest, after all, they have to leave tomorrow.
Man Sheng and He Jiaqi were in the same room, so she picked up her bag and went.
The men wanted to disperse, but Gu Xiyuan stepped forward and said to Wei Rong, "Mr. Wei, do you mind taking a step to talk?"
Wei Rong greeted him, "Mr. Gu will show you the way."
Wei Xiaoli watched them leave, he withdrew his gaze, and only hoped that there would be no more accidents, like a fight that shouldn't have happened.
The two men wandered around the temple, but they didn't know where they were going.
In front of a pavilion, the young monk saw Gu Xiyuan, recognized him and said, "Benefactor Gu, I found the Buddhist scriptures you were looking for last time for you."
This pavilion is the scripture storage pavilion of the temple. Gu Xiyuan stopped walking and said, "Mr. Wei, are you interested in visiting?"
"The Buddhist scriptures, I really want to take a look." Wei Rong replied.
The Sutra Pavilion in the temple contains many ancient scriptures.After entering the pavilion, the little monk found the Buddhist scripture for Gu Xiyuan, "Benefactor Gu, the Buddhist scripture you want."
Gu Xiyuan took it, and leaned against the window of the pavilion to browse for a while.Looking up and seeing Wei Rong walking in front of the scripture bookshelf, he said, "Mr. Wei is also interested in scriptures?"
"I remember it was written in a scripture—" Wei Rong said indifferently, "Buddha said that there are eight sufferings in life, birth, old age, illness, death, parting from love, long-lasting grievances, what you can't ask for, and what you can't let go."
"Among the eight sufferings, being unable to let go of this one is the last suffering." Wei Rong's cold male voice resounded through the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. He never looked back, but the words pointed directly at Gu Xiyuan, "Mr. Gu, why do you have to do all kinds of things?" Can't let go!"
If you are not a fool, you can see Gu Xiyuan's thoughts!
Before, it was just speculation, but just now when she injured her finger, his care and love are clearly known to the world!And his ex-wife, who was still on the sidelines, didn't know how to react, so she could only watch all this in a daze!
Gu Xiyuan can't let go, anyone can understand!
Gu Xiyuan, however, was at ease, never panicked when facing him, maybe he also wanted to confront him head-on, "If she is happy and living a happy life, how can I not let her go?"
"How do you know that she is unhappy?" Wei Rong closed the scriptures and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that she always tells you about anything unhappy? Man Sheng, she is not such a girl."
"She really won't." Gu Xiyuan replied, "Even if she is unhappy, she will only say that it is her own problem! But you, did you give her happiness? I went out to play today. Since early in the morning, I haven't seen her smile again. Pass!"
This sentence seemed to wake him up, Wei Rong recalled it carefully.
Reminiscing about whether she had ever laughed along the way after meeting each other early this morning.
In fact, there have been, but the smile is too shallow!
"Even the master abbot finds that she has troubles!" Gu Xiyuan said again, "Wei Rong, if what you brought her is nothing more than this, then I ask you to withdraw from her world!"
quit?
"Heh." Wei Rong laughed, and he looked back slowly, "So that you, Gu Xiyuan, can take advantage of her and take her over?"
"I will make her happy!" Gu Xiyuan said firmly.
"Mr. Gu, you have finally admitted that your thoughts about her are really extraordinary!" Wei Rong narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "You have misguided thoughts about your sister!"
"She was never my sister." In an instant, as if unwilling to hide any more, Gu Xiyuan stared at the emotion that had been suppressed all the time, "Where is the blood relationship between me and her? I am moved by her." Nian, it is fair and aboveboard!"
"While taking your wife with you, you are talking about being aboveboard." Wei Rong asked with a smile, "I really admire it!"
"I can announce the news of my divorce tomorrow!" Gu Xiyuan said firmly.
"You just declare, but she is my woman, this fact will not change!" Wei Rong ignored it, "Even if she dies, she still belongs to me!"
He is cursing her!Gu Xiyuan was depressed, and said in an increasingly cold male voice, "If she doesn't want to follow you, stay by your side! She doesn't! Mr. Wei, do you dare to ask her if she still wants to stay with you?" around you--!"
"Mr. Gu, your aggressive method is useless to me! I advise you to take care of your wife. Although you are divorced in name, she has affection and righteousness for you. You should not be a betrayer!" With a sneer, the two of them retorted like needlepoints without retreating from each other!
In the midst of the fierce confrontation, the little monk knocked on the door and entered, "Benefactor Gu, the master abbot has finished his evening class, please go over and talk..."
Only then did Gu Xiyuan slowly come back to his senses, and said to Wei Rong, "Mr. Wei is free to do so!"
After Gu Xiyuan left, the monk guarding the Sutra Pavilion asked, "This benefactor, do you still want to read Buddhist scriptures?"
However, Wei Rong didn't respond again, and the monk closed the door, leaving him alone.
There was a fragrance in the Sutra Pavilion, and a wisp of sandalwood wafted out, but it couldn't make people calm down. Suddenly, her questioning words sounded in her ears-I see, then I will fulfill it, I will quit, is that okay!
……
In the wing room of the temple, Mansheng came out of the bath.
He Jiaqi didn't know where he went, but now he came back and sat in front of the window of the wing room, looking at the bright moon outside the window, saw her coming out of the shower, turned around and asked with a smile, "Did you wash?"
Mansheng nodded and said, "Miss He, aren't you cold?"
Mansheng took a blanket for her to cover, He Jiaqi felt her kindness, she didn't refuse, but just handed her a letter.
"You wrote this." He Jiaqi said softly.
Man Sheng was taken aback, the familiar handwriting on this letter was none other than himself!
Sender: Lin Mansheng.
Recipient: Gu Xiyuan.
The clear envelope opened the sprawling memory, as if going back to the past years, when he was young, he wrote a letter and sent it to him in another city.
Even with that, I sent all my thoughts to him.
It was her childhood love.
……
However, how could such a long-ago letter be in He Jiaqi's hands?Man Sheng was a little dazed, and because of the reappearance of the letter, it brought back countless memories.
"Aren't you going to open it and have a look?" He Jiaqi asked softly, and said to himself, "Let me open it for you."
He Jiaqi's hands trembled a little, maybe it was because of how disgraceful it is to open letters privately, or maybe it was because it was inevitable to make people feel palpitating to completely reveal this love that did not belong to him.
It was too forceful and too eager, so the envelopes were torn apart, and with a "hiss—" He Jiaqi apologized and said, "Sorry, I tore up your letter...but fortunately, the letter paper is still intact... "
As He Jiaqi said, she took out the letter. She unfolded the letter paper, read it intently, and said after reading it for a long time, "Actually, he didn't write anything, but he kept it all the time. Give it to you."
Spinning stayed in place, and she bent down slightly to take it.
She saw that the entire sheet of paper was covered with handwriting, which was written by her when she was young.
"Why..." Mansheng finally asked.
"Why is it in my hand?" He Jiaqi answered with a smile, "I just found it by accident. Do you know where your letter is?"
How could Mansheng know, He Jiaqi continued, "It's in this temple, the Buddhist scripture pavilion of the temple! There are many more here, all here!"
As He Jiaqi said, he took out another wooden box, "Not just these, there are more in the Sutra Pavilion!"
Her letters are deposited in the temple?
"It's absurd, isn't it?" When He Jiaqi learned about it back then, he thought it was too outrageous, "He funded the construction of the Sutra Pavilion in Lingshan Temple. He has a good relationship with the abbot here, so he often comes here. You I put the letter in that Buddhist scripture pavilion, what kind of thought did he put into you to achieve this?"
This is a temple, a temple where the great Buddha and Bodhisattva are located. Incense is offered every day, accompanied by morning bells and evening drums. The letters she sent to him are all hidden here. through.
It seems that his whole heart is praying together in this temple.
Maybe it's to pray for her good health, maybe it's to pray for her life's happiness, or maybe it's still praying, maybe there is a possibility of renewing the relationship.
Before the Buddha, what exactly did he ask for, and how many times did he ask for it.
No one knows.
But only from these letters, although she was never mentioned in a single word, this girl has always lived in Gu Xiyuan's heart!
I can't get rid of it!
Man Sheng is holding the letter at this moment, her ears are buzzing, everything happened suddenly, remembering that he was still by her side, remembering when he and her parted, and remembering every day of their correspondence...
"Miss Lin, I really envy you." Such familiar words made Mansheng feel stunned. Once upon a time, she also said the same to another girl.
At this moment, it turned out to be someone else talking to me.
Buddha, is there really reincarnation in the world?
"He always remembers you, and he will never forget you." He Jiaqi whispered again, as if he recognized him, "I have used it for so many years, but I can't make him forget you."
What a crime, who said that all men in the world are fickle?
But be kind to yourself.
She is not reconciled, but what can she do?
Mansheng looked down at the letter, and she slowly handed it back, "This is no longer mine..."
"If you want to pay it back, you have to pay it back yourself!" But He Jiaqi had already got up and walked into the bathroom.
Man Sheng holds the letter, she can't keep it, but she can't destroy it either.In a moment of contemplation, it was a mess, but I could only pick up the wooden box and return it to the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, as if nothing had happened.
……
"The female benefactor!"
"I'm here to borrow a few scriptures..." Man Sheng found an excuse, and pushed the door open to enter the scripture storage pavilion.
"Crackling——" the wooden door was pushed open, and the Sutra Library was huge, but Man Sheng didn't know where to put it. Where were these letters?
The bookshelves of scriptures were stacked one upon another, and it was impossible to find a place to put them. Liansheng stood on tiptoe, thinking that he could just put it in a random place.
But just as he was trying to raise his hand to place it, someone suddenly reached out from behind and grabbed the wooden box!
A male voice sounded from above, "What are you holding in your hand!"
Man Sheng was startled, she never thought that there would be people here!
She immediately turned her head to look, and found that he appeared behind her at some unknown time!
——It is none other than Wei Rong!
The candles in the Sutra Pavilion were brightly lit, but they were not as bright as when the lights were turned on. Instead, clusters of candles were faintly lit, like blue lanterns, which made people shudder!
Man Sheng's heart trembled, his hands loosened all of a sudden, Wei Rong had already snatched the wooden box!
"Nothing! This is someone else's property, I just came to pay it back..." She didn't want him to see it, and she didn't know how to explain it.But at this time, neither retreat nor advance!
Wei Rong looked down at her, as if she didn't want to be seen.Looking at the wooden box in my hand, it is obviously some age, not something that will be available in recent years.
Seeing that she was about to come to snatch her, Wei Rong moved his finger, and the lid of the wooden box was flipped. Suddenly, the wooden box toppled because of losing its center of gravity, and countless letters flew down like petals in midsummer!
Man Sheng stood there dumbstruck, only to see letters falling down one after another!
In front of Wei Rong's eyes, it was like a drizzle suddenly!
When the letters were scattered all over the floor, Mansheng immediately bent over to pick them up. Wei Rong looked down and found that the letters were all with the same handwriting.
Lin Mansheng, Gu Xiyuan!
There was another one, stuck in a wooden box, without an envelope, just a single piece of letter paper.
The folded letter paper was taken down by Wei Rong, and he put the wooden box on the scripture stand!
He opened it to see what was written on the letter.
But everywhere, there are only three words - Gu Xiyuan!
Gu Xiyuan, who has a whole sheet of letter paper, writes neatly and delicately, and every stroke is extremely serious.
You can even vaguely see that the background of the letter paper is a fluttering butterfly.
Butterfly, Gu Xiyuan...
Wei Rong's eyes were fixed for a long time, but suddenly, he discovered something, an unexpected thing, something that he would never have thought about if it didn't happen to overlap at this moment!
If the word butterfly is written, it will be exactly thirty strokes.
There are three characters of Gu Xiyuan, but there are exactly thirty strokes!
For thousands of years, everything can be clearly seen in my memory. That year, Lin Mansheng actually liked Gu Xiyuan so wholeheartedly.
After a long silence, I finally recovered my voice, but at the end I was almost forced to say, "Lin Mansheng, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"
