Chapter 108 - Talking To Master On The Phone
Xing Jiuan thought about it and prepared to call her master to ask him what was going on.
However, she did not expect her master"s line to be busy.
It was very strange. Master usually did not use his cell phone much.
It was true that he did not use his cell phone much. However, he did not expect two of his disciples to have something to talk to him about at the same time.
He did not explain to Lin Feng about the concept of switching lives over the phone. He just told him that he had a phone call coming in and wanted to talk to him tomorrow.
Lin Feng could only hang up unwillingly. It was going to be a sleepless night for him.
Xing Jiuan dialed her master"s number, then his voice was heard on the other end.
"What"s wrong, Little 21st? Instead of sleeping at night, why are you looking for Master?"
"Master, I want to ask you something. The fiancé you mentioned previously…" Xing Jiuan"s voice was a little low and sounded a little troubled.
Master instantly guessed it.
"Did he approach you?"
"Yes, Master. He said my name was given by him, along with… the tokens of love. But I don"t remember this happening at all.
"Master, is this true?
"Or am I being deceived?"
Xing Jiuan sounded like she was at a loss. Master only had to think for a moment before he imagined the puzzled look on the little girl"s face.
She said that she was an adult and was especially calm and rational. However, her childish behavior and expressions were still adorable sometimes.
"He didn"t lie to you. However, this engagement was just a casual conversation when you were kids. If you don"t want it, we don"t have to bother about it.
"I asked you before. You said you would break it off. I also told Lu Jiunan"s grandfather. It wasn"t ever taken seriously in the first place. So, we returned the jade pendant. It doesn"t count anymore."
Xing Jiuan felt a little guilty. How should she tell Master that Lu Zhichen had given her the jade pendant again?
"But why don"t I have any impression of it?" Xing Jiuan automatically skipped over the jade pendant and voiced her other doubts.
Master did not answer her about this.
He recalled Xing Jiuan"s accident after Lu Zhichen left. It was not only Mu Qing and Lin Feng who did not have a good impression of Lu Zhichen. Master also felt unhappy.
Although Lu Zhichen could not be blamed for that matter at all.
It couldn"t be helped. The incident happened because of Lu Zhichen, so they took their anger out on him.
"Since you forgot about it, then just forget about it. It"s not important. If you can"t remember, then let it stay that way.
"Did you call because Lu Jiunan is troubling you?"
Xing Jiuan originally wanted to tell him about the three-year period Lu Zhichen had told her about. However, for some reason, she decided not to say it.
"Master, I just find it very strange."
"There"s nothing strange about it. If you"re happy, then spend more time with him. If you"re unhappy, then ignore him.
"If he continues to persist, I will look for his grandfather."
Xing Jiuan couldn"t help but want to laugh. The feeling of being protected by her master had always felt especially good.
"I understand, Master."
"If Mu Qing and the others can"t protect you well when you"re out, you can look for me. Anyway, don"t suffer or endure any hards.h.i.+ps. I didn"t raise you painstakingly only for you to end up suffering."
Xing Jiuan"s eyes trembled. "I understand, Master."
Master didn"t want to dwell on this, so he changed the topic. "Isn"t it time for Su Yize to start school?"
"He has gone back not long ago. School should be starting soon."
