Chapter 325 - 325 Becoming a Monk
325 Becoming a Monk
“You…” Old Master Xu pointed at Xu Qing and was about to scold her, but he was stopped by Xu Jiangdong. “Father, let’s leave first and think about the big picture.” When he saw Qiao Yanhui’s murderous gaze, if not for the fact that there were so many people, he would have run already. But if he ran away on his own and ignored his parents, he would definitely be condemned by the public. How could he get rich in the future?
As Xu Qing watched the Xu family run away, she sneered.
The Xu family returned very quickly, mainly because they were injured. When he heard the commotion, Xu Jiangzhong, who was making out with Bao Hongyi on the table, was startled and instinctively wanted to get up.
When Bao Hongyi was interrupted, he slapped Xu Jiangzhong. Xu Jiangzhong didn’t dare to move anymore and could only continue to curry favor with Bao Hongyi.
Outside, the Xu family was still shouting for Xu Jiangzhong to hire a private doctor to examine them, but after shouting for a long time, no one came. Zhao Bing couldn’t take it anymore and stood up to push open Xu Jiangzhong’s door. She was instantly shocked by the sight in front of her and screamed.
As a result, the entire Bao family found out. Not long after, the entire capital found out as well.
Xu Jiangzhong was already on the verge of a mental breakdown. Or rather, when they were discovered but Bao Hongyi still forced him to finish it, he was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
When Xu Qing heard about this, she originally thought that Bao Hongyi would throw Xu Jiangzhong and his family out. Although Bao Hongyi was a player, he was also very prideful. Now that everyone knew about it, Bao Hongyi’s reputation was ruined. However, in the end, Xu Jiangzhong actually coaxed Bao Hongyi into letting him and the Xu family stay.
However, this was good. If the Xu family fell from a high place, they would definitely be even more miserable when they hit rock bottom. They had even sold their house in Anning Village, so if they left the capital, they would have nothing…
Xu Qing had already sent the news of Xu Jiangxi’s background back to her family. This time, the entire family would come to the capital. At that time, they would completely end their relationship with the Xu family.
After dealing with all this, Xu Qing felt much more relaxed. Other than practicing martial arts with Yuan’er and the others, she flirted with Qiao Yanhui every day.
“Something has happened!” Suddenly, a hurried voice sounded.
“Hua Yuncheng, why are you in such a hurry?” Xu Qing glared at the anxious Hua Yuncheng.
“It’s not me… It’s Deng Jiangming. He’s about to be burned to death! No, pfft…” Hua Yuncheng panted heavily. “It’s Deng Chengxi. She’s going to become a nun! Deng Jiangming is dying of anxiety!”
Xu Qing frowned. What nonsense! Deng Chengxi was still causing a fuss over Yi Chulin? Was there no end to it?
Qiao Yanhui happened to return. When he saw Xu Qing and Hua Yuncheng rushing out, he followed them.
Along the way, after Xu Qing found out from Hua Yuncheng how Deng Chengxi had lived this year, she understood. Deng Chengxi didn’t do it on the spur of the moment. She had planned it. She had used this entire year to lighten the heavy burden on her shoulders for this day.
At this moment, in the temple hall.
Deng Chengxi stared at the Buddha statue in front of her calmly.
An amiable nun beside her said, “Madam, have you really thought it through?”
Deng Chengxi smiled faintly. “I have trouble moving on from my past, so I hope you will take me in.”
The nun lamented, “Some things can’t be forced. Why are you doing this? Running away won’t solve the problem.”
Deng Chengxi closed her eyes slowly. “I can’t move on, so I hope Buddha can save me. Please shave my head for me.” Her voice was firm, but it was also very faint. Yi Chulin had already become her inner demon. She couldn’t let go, but she couldn’t get him either. If this continued, her life would be ruined and she might even do something to hurt others. She didn’t want that to happen.
“Alright.” The nun didn’t dissuade her anymore and was about to cut off her hair for her.
“Wait!” Deng Jiangming rushed in. When he saw her dejected appearance, he was so angry that he said, “In the past, no matter how persistent and humble you were towards Yi Chulin, I couldn’t stop you. But what about now? Why are you making a fuss about becoming a monk? How willful are you? You abandoned your brother and the entire family for a man who doesn’t love you? Are you crazy?”
Without opening her eyes, Deng Chengxi said calmly, “Brother, I’m really tired.” It was so tiring to love someone. In the past, she would only numb herself with work, but after she saw Yi Chulin later on, she really couldn’t hold on anymore. This was the last choice she had made for herself. Before this, she had already arranged all work-related matters already, so why did he still say that she was willful?
