Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Mu Tiantian watched her father close the door, and her heart started beating even faster.

opportunity finally arises!

Time is short, so I'll keep it brief.

She stood up and knelt directly before Master Wukong. "Master, I don't want to marry the person my father arranged. My heart belongs to someone else, and I will regret it for the rest of my life if I can't be with them. I need your help now!"

She blurted out her request in one breath, speaking softly so her parents outside the door wouldn't hear.

After saying this, he kowtowed to Master Wukong with utmost sincerity.

Master Wukong scrutinized Mu Tiantian.

He noticed something was off about the girl from the beginning, especially her nervous and guilty expression as she stared at the closed door; he caught it perfectly.

It turned out that she needed his help.

The little girl's eyes were bright and clear, and her gaze was so devout that it was hard to refuse her.

Buddhists are generally kind-hearted, and since Qin Dongyang was his friend, he glanced in the direction of the door and casually asked, "Why doesn't your father let you be with the person you like?"

Mu Tiantian was secretly delighted; the monk's question meant she still had a chance.

She quickly explained, "Because of the conflicts and grudges between our parents, I don't know if my father has told you about the time he was betrayed by his brother when he was starting his business. This incident hurt my father a lot. He suffered a series of blows and even went through a divorce with my mother, which led to the loss of me..."

"Unfortunately, the person I like is the son of the man who betrayed my father."

Master Wukong suddenly realized.

He knew about this matter; it was a past event that Qin Dongyang could never let go of.

Qin Dongyang came to the temple to cultivate himself because of this matter.

He had also experienced betrayal by his brothers when he was young, and he knew how painful that feeling was.

Therefore, he never advised Qin Dongyang to learn to let go.

People who value relationships and loyalty find it difficult to completely let go of the past because they take emotions so seriously.

Mu Tiantian could tell from Master Wukong's reaction that he was aware of the situation.

Fearing that Master Wukong might have a negative first impression of Fu Zhengting, he added, "I've discovered that there's a misunderstanding between my father and Fu Zhenlong, and I'm secretly gathering evidence. I hope that until I find the evidence, Master Wukong can help postpone my arranged marriage..."

As she kept her eyes fixed on the door, she continued, "Fu Zhenlong is a bad person, but his son, Fu Zhengting, is completely different. Fu Zhengting is a very, very good person. He saved my adoptive mother and is very good to me. A while ago, an orphanage in Nancheng caught fire, and thanks to my timely discovery, I woke up many children."

"Director Zhang Huamei was very grateful to me, but if Fu Zhengting hadn't rushed into the fire to save me in time, I would have died. In fact, Fu Zhengting saved all the children in the orphanage. I share this merit with him, and I firmly believe that we will be rewarded and have a good outcome..."

She didn't want to boast like that; doing good deeds doesn't need to be emphasized. Once you emphasize it, it loses its meaning and seems fake.

But now she felt she had to mention it to win over Master Wukong and get his help.

Monks and nuns will definitely have a good impression of people who are extremely kind and loving.

Sure enough, she noticed that the way Master Wukong looked at her had changed.

It seemed like shock, or perhaps it was awe.

Master Wukong was shocked because he knew Zhang Huamei.

Zhang Huamei called him a few days ago.

Zhang Huamei repeatedly expressed her gratitude on the phone, saying that it was thanks to the handsome young man's timely appearance and brave rush in to save people that no one was injured.

However, the handsome young man lay in the hospital for several days before waking up.

He didn't ask too many questions at the time, never expecting that this handsome young man was actually Fu Zhengting.

He also knew Fu Zhengting and had a very good first impression of him.

Just like the little girl said, Fu Zhengting is indeed a very good person.

There is a lake near the temple. It is quiet at night and the air is fresh. He would occasionally go to the lake to walk and cleanse his mind.

Once, a child accidentally fell into the lake while playing, and it was Fu Zhengting who rescued him.

The onlookers recognized Fu Zhengting as the president of the Fu Group and took pictures of him with their phones. Only then did he realize that he was Fu Zhenlong's son.

Because of the feud between Qin Dongyang and Fu Zhenlong, he thought that even if Fu Zhenlong's son wasn't too bad, he wouldn't be a good person either.

It turned out that he was biased.

Mu Tiantian found Wukong's reaction particularly strange, as if he knew Fu Zhengting?!

She briefly recounted how she met Fu Zhengting, then sighed, "To meet again in such a dramatic way after being separated for twenty years is enough to show how deep our connection is. I don't understand Buddhism, but I believe in it, and I know how important the concept of fate is in Buddhism."

It takes a lot of fate for two people to meet and fall in love, so I cherish the bond between Fu Zhengting and me. No difficulties or obstacles can separate Fu Zhengting and me...

Master Wukong stared intently at Mu Tiantian, deeply moved by her resolute words.

He had seen too many men and women who couldn't be together for various reasons come to the temple to pray for blessings.

He was someone who had once loved passionately.

Disappointed and heartbroken by love, he chose to leave the secular world and become a monk.

Such unwavering love requires immense strength to maintain such unwavering faith.

There are so many couples in love, but very few are brave enough to love and stay together through thick and thin.

There will always be various reasons for breaking up.

He once believed that lovers who are truly committed to each other can never be separated.

But they couldn't escape that curse and ultimately succumbed to reality.

This little girl made him begin to believe that true love still exists in this world.

It's clear she's a very brave little girl.

He imagined Fu Zhengting being just as brave when he saved people, and then looked at Mu Tiantian in front of him. The two of them had a magical, perfect chemistry.

Perhaps it's because they are all people with great kindness and love.

Master Wukong remained silent, and Mu Tiantian was extremely nervous.

I'm terrified of being rejected.

He was even more afraid that Master Wukong would tell his own father.

But she believed that a person who cultivates spirituality would not do such a despicable thing.

She glanced at the closed door again, knowing her parents might push it open and come in at any moment.

She kowtowed again, lowering her voice and saying quickly, "Master Wukong, I really need your help. Please, for the sake of both Fu Zhengting and me being good people, grant us our wish. When my father comes in later and asks you about the result, just say that it's not suitable to get married within three days, preferably on or after the start of winter."

"Anyway, it shouldn't take too long. Give me enough time for Fu Zhengting's people to investigate. I will definitely do more good deeds to accumulate merit. Only by investigating clearly can my father's knot be untied, and he won't live in the hatred of the past forever."

She had just finished speaking when there was a knock on the door, and then the door was pushed open...
