Chapter 85: Master Huideng Wants to See You (2)
Qu Fulan’s fingertips slightly moved, and her eyelashes also trembled a few times. She analyzed two key points from Heir Pei’s words.Master Huideng hasn’t said anything to him yet.
The second point is that Master Huideng is waiting for her to awaken. Besides the allure of "Journey to the West," she believes that Master Huideng is waiting for her for other matters.
For this, he is willing to delay his return, just to wait for her.
Qu Fulan fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Honestly, she doesn’t want to see Master Huideng, because she doesn’t know what he will say.
This uncontrollable factor makes her most uneasy.
"Is it really because of Master Huideng? What have I done to deserve a meeting with him?" she said anxiously.
"When did you become so timid and fearful?" Pei Ji’an laughed lightly, "In the past, you weren’t so timid when facing me."
Qu Fulan blinked and thought, when had she ever not been cautious facing him? Even now, she dared not relax; when had she not been afraid?
"Can I not see the real from the fake?" He sat on the stool before the bed, unbothered.
Qu Fulan’s expression became a bit stiff. In fact, sometimes emotions, true and false, can indeed be hard to discern, but sometimes they can be quite easy to differentiate.o think quietly about how to handle Master Huideng.
If Master Huideng truly had insight, he hadn’t exposed her publicly but waited for her to awaken, suggesting he intended to have a private talk.
Master Huideng hadn’t even mentioned anything to Heir Pei, implying he didn’t want to make it public.
Otherwise, wouldn’t he have burned her long ago, instead of letting her live until today?
Even if Master Huideng might have seen something, he shouldn’t create a huge fuss, as she hasn’t done anything truly outrageous.
Thinking this way, her heart calmed considerably.
Then she started contemplating the "Flower Garden Ode" matters.
Judging by the Heir’s tone, besides the bustling business on opening day, the following days also continued to have good business.
This was within her expectations.
According to her plan, the "Journey to the West" wouldn’t update daily, with new content being discussed every three days.
It was necessary to allow previous patrons some time to savor, while giving new patrons a chance to listen, with a three-day interval being just right.
With thoughts swirling, she somehow fell asleep again, perhaps it was because of being overly busy lately.
She remembered during her modern times, being consumed by a project for a month straight, and after the project’s success she fell ill, staying in bed for an entire week, waking only to eat before sleeping again.
After a week, she recovered from the illness, lost weight significantly, but was still full of vigor.
The current situation seemed to follow suit logically.
She awoke completely recovered the next day.
Now that everything’s fine, meeting Master Huideng became urgent.
Heir Pei led the way, tall and with long legs, yet walked at a deliberate pace, seemingly considerate of her recent recovery, deliberately slowing his steps.
They navigated through winding corridors, taking left and right turns, arriving at a secluded path with a pavilion, surrounded by a large bamboo grove, presenting a serene environment.
Apparently, this is where Master Huideng resides.
This place truly suits a monk’s dwelling.
Pei Ji’an walked up, lightly knocked twice on the door, then waited silently for a response.
Qu Fulan’s steps, however, seemed hesitant to advance, wondering if her fainting back then was due to seeing Master Huideng. Now seeing him again, would she faint once more?
The first time could be explained by exhaustion, but how to explain the second?
Worrying inwardly, a voice resonated from within, "Come in."
Pei Ji’an opened the door, turned back to give her a glance, motioning her to follow.
Qu Fulan clenched her teeth, lowered her gaze, and entered.
She kept her eyes fixed on the ground.
If she didn’t look at Master Huideng, there should be no issues.
