Rose Manor

Shen Jia Nian's lips turned pale, indicating his acquiescence.

Bai Changxia stopped, turned around to face her, and asked puzzledly: "Why do you think so? They say that you can't help yourself with feelings. I've never been in love, so I don't know. I just know that if I like it, I like it. There is no right or wrong.”

Under the sun, people outside the palace were moving around frequently. Fu Jichen was outside another cave door and could not see his figure.Shen Jia Nian closed his eyes: "You don't understand."

"I see that Fu Jichen is very interested in you." Bai Changxia paused, as if struck by a spiritual light, and said sharply, "Is it because of his family connections?"

She guessed most of the time, and Shen Jianian made it clear: "His grandfather made a marriage for him, and he is the daughter of the Xu family. Do you know about the Xu family? That family has produced many high-ranking officials, and his family background is very similar. A good match and combination of the two will be of great help to Fu Jichen's career."

Bai Changxia's throat twitched slightly, and she knew to some extent that a wealthy family like the Fu family, which had been rich for several generations, paid attention to being well-matched when it came to marriage, and tried to continue their wealth.

Marriage is the norm, true love is rare.

If nothing happened to the Shen family, they might not be able to gain the title of Fu family, let alone now...

However, we can't think this way. If nothing happened to the Shen family, Shen Jia Nian would not have had the chance to meet Fu Jichen. She would have been with Pei Che, got engaged and married after Pei Che returned to China, and Pei Che would not have died.

It can only be said that everything is arranged by fate.

"Where's Fu Jichen, what does he think?"

As he said that, Bai Changxia glanced outside the cave door, which was covered by a wall. Although he couldn't see the figure of the man, he could still imagine his tall and erect appearance, and the surrounding scenery was his foil.

Even though he is living in the world of mortals, he still has a dignity that is not stained by dust.

"Jianian, you should ask him seriously. After all, it's his marriage." Things in wealthy houses are too far away from ordinary people's lives. Bai Changxia feels that her suggestions may not be so practical, but she still has to Said, "If something is not finalized, it means there is hope. No matter what, Fu Jichen is a businessman with means and strategy. If he really identifies you, there is no way he can do anything."

Fu Jichen said that he would not marry the daughter of the Xu family, but Shen Jianian did not tell Bai Changxia.She pulled her lips and smiled lightly: "I actually didn't think about it that much."

Fu Jichen is a person who does great things. He cannot be limited by the love between his children, so why bother him.

Since he refuses to let go of her now, then she should accompany him for one more journey. When he no longer needs her, she will leave with dignity.

"I want to go to the toilet, do you want to go?" Bai Changxia changed the topic and looked around, "Where is the toilet? Why isn't there even a sign?"

Shen Jianian let out a breath and stopped mentioning the somewhat serious topic: "Ask a passerby."

Bai Changxia asked a few people passing by. They were all tourists from out of town. It was their first time and they didn't know where the toilets were.

Shen Jia Nian was still reliable, so he walked straight to a novice monk in monk's robes and asked him for directions.

The young novice monk, with his delicate features and beautiful eyes, bowed to her and pointed her in the direction.

After Shen Jia said his thanks, he and Bai Changxia passed through a door on the side, glancing outside from time to time, worried that Fu Jichen would become impatient if he waited too long.

However, there was also a long queue for the toilet, and Shen Jia Nian had no choice but to continue waiting.

In front of them were two women, one older, in her 50s, and the other slightly younger, less than 40 years old.

The two of them came together to communicate mysteriously.

She spoke with a southern accent, and Shen Jia Nian could barely understand some of it. He didn't understand some words, so he relied on the context to guess the meaning.

It wasn't that she meant to eavesdrop on what they were saying, but the tone of the two women was too cryptic and fascinating, which inevitably aroused people's curiosity and desire for prying eyes.

The young woman said: "A few years ago, my elder brother and sister-in-law died in a car accident, leaving a pair of children with nowhere to go. My husband was kind-hearted and took the two children over. As you know, my husband is a casual worker on a construction site. , the three melons and two dates I earned were only enough for the family's daily expenses. How could I afford to support my two children to study in Beicheng? During that time, the family was so poor that it was almost impossible to open the pot. I thought about sending my children to an orphanage, but after thinking about it, I decided I couldn't bear it, so I came to pray to God and worship Buddha, and met the abbot of the temple. It was difficult to meet the abbot usually, and it happened to be that day. I took the lotus that I had prayed for and asked the abbot how to interpret it. After reading the lotus, the abbot mentioned it. Please point me out and just accumulate good deeds, and you will be rewarded with blessings in the future..."

Hearing this, Shen Jianian and Bai Changxia looked at each other.

Bai Changxia listened with great interest, grabbed Shen Jia Nian's shoulders with both hands, stretched his neck impatiently and asked the woman in front of him: "What happened next?"

The woman who told the story turned around and saw two little girls in their early twenties, who looked bright and well-behaved. She smiled kindly: "Later, my husband made a lot of money from investing, and the family's life got better. , my husband took us back to my hometown and rented a store to sell snacks, and the business was booming." She touched her belly, her eyes becoming softer and warmer, "My husband and I have been married for more than ten years, and we have never had children because of my health problems. , I went to the hospital for a check-up last week and I was pregnant with my baby, so I specially booked a ticket and came here to fulfill my wish and donated a sum of money for incense."

"Abbott is so powerful?" Bai Changxia's eyes lit up.

The older woman said: "If you believe it, there will be something. If you don't believe it, there will be nothing. You can't tell for sure."

After going to the toilet, Bai Changxia thought about it, shook Shen Jianian's arm, and suggested: "Why don't we also go to the abbot to have a fortune telling." "You didn't listen to what that person said, it is generally difficult to see the abbot."

"Sincerity can naturally be seen!"

Bai Changxia dragged Shen Jianian with great interest to the place where fortune telling was done.

Shen Jia Nian saw that she was a little stunned, and said helplessly: "I can accompany you, but first, I have to go and tell Fu Jichen. He has been waiting outside for a long time."

"Oh, yes, yes." Bai Changxia patted his forehead and smiled, "I forgot about Mr. Fu when I was happy."

The roads in the temple extend in all directions. The two of them first went around to the Main Hall, then went out through the front door and saw the people waiting there.

As the sun rose and the temperature gradually climbed, Fu Jichen took off his suit jacket and held it in his hand. He was wearing a dark gray shirt and black trousers. His shoulders were straight and his legs were slender. His superior body proportions were clearly visible.

Bai Changxia suddenly said: "Look at Mr. Fu's waiting posture, does it look like the Wife-Watching Stone?"

Shen Jianian was speechless and poked her with his elbow to remind her not to talk nonsense.

Bai Changxia let go of Shen Jianian's arm and let her go to Fu Jichen.

"We went to the bathroom. We've been waiting for a long time." Shen Jianian looked up at the man's handsome face. Because the weather was too hot, sweat was dripping from her forehead. She took out a pack of handkerchiefs from her pants pocket and took out a piece. Give him, "Wipe the sweat."

Fu Jichen didn't answer. He lowered his head like a young man. The meaning was obvious.

Bai Changxia touched his nose and turned his head consciously to look at the green mountains in the distance.

Shen Jianian raised her hand to wipe his sweat, and said by the way: "Xia Xia wants to go to the place where fortune telling is done. If you don't want to go, just find a place to sit for a while."

Fu Jichen asked her: "Are you going?"

"Well, I'll accompany her."

"I'll accompany you."

Shen Jia Nian met his dark eyes, and the content of her chat with Xia Xia popped into her mind. Does she like Fu Jichen?It seems that I already have the answer in my heart.

She herself didn't know when she started to have a place for him in her heart.

She obviously doesn't like this type of man.

When she first started to fall in love, her only knowledge of what she liked was Pei Che. She felt that boys who were sunny, warm, cheerful and gentle were the most comfortable to get along with.

I don't like people who are serious and cold, I don't like people who are thoughtful, I don't like people who are domineering and powerful.

Fu Jichen happened to have all of these.

Shen Jianian took back his hand, balled up the used tissues into a ball, and threw them away without finding a place. He stuffed them back into his pocket and confirmed with him: "Are you sure you want to go? It might be a bit boring for you."

Fu Jichen held her hand and smiled, "Sitting and waiting is boring, so I might as well accompany you."

Bai Changxia pretended not to hear and followed their footsteps silently. It must be said that a mature and steady man's words of love are more captivating.

What he said was not the kind of ambiguous love words, but just a plain "It's better to accompany you", which was much more powerful than those sweet words.

Several people came to the fortune-telling place, but unfortunately they didn't meet the abbot. There was a young novice sitting behind the stall, which made people feel unreliable.

I thought that Fu Jichen was not interested in these things, but I didn't expect that he also asked for a lottery - compared to others who were more cautious, he just casually drew one from the tube.

He held the bamboo stick and read the words on it. He was not sure what it meant. He handed it to the novice behind the wooden table and asked, "What does this mean?"

The novice monk glanced at it, frowned in confusion, and asked, "What does the donor ask for?"

Bai Changxia and Shen Jianian were still shaking the lottery tubes when they heard the man next to them say: "Seeking marriage."
