Li Yue didn't like this late autumn very much.

She frowned and glanced at Shen Qiu:

"Even if Li Jingchuan and I avoid suspicion and keep our distance, the Ling family will not be polite to me."

After speaking, she raised her lips indifferently:

"It's just that I don't know, why did Mr. Shen come to the temple?"

"Do you also want to pray for your deceased relatives?"

"Pray for blessings?"

Shen Qiu narrowed his eyes and glanced at Li Yue and Li Jingchuan with a cold look on his lips:

"Don't tell me that you came here to see my brother just to pray for blessings?"

"No?"

Li Jingchuan stretched out his arms to protect Li Yue in his arms, raised his eyes and looked at Shen Qiu indifferently:

"Master Qin Zaixing is now the most prestigious person in the City God's Temple."

"I am for my aunt and Li Yue is for her uncle. We come to Master Qin Zaixing to pray. What's wrong?"

Shen Qiu narrowed his eyes.

After a while, he suddenly laughed as if he thought of something:

"Since you are all here to pray for blessings, let me also pray for those who have passed away."

Li Yue frowned:

"Then who are you for?"

As far as she knew, although many people in the Qin family had died over the years, Shen Qiu had no friendship with anyone in the Qin family except for his close relationship with Mrs. Qin.

Shen Qiu raised her lips:

"For Shen Qiu."

As soon as these three words were spoken, Li Yue's eyes widened instantly.

She and Li Jingchuan said that they came to pray for the dead.

But Shen Qiu said that he was praying for himself.

This man is either terminally ill, or he said this on purpose to laugh at them!

Looking at the man in front of him with a smile on his face, red teeth and white lips, Li Yue was absolutely sure that this man said that on purpose!

Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes. Just as she was about to say something, the door to the other courtyard opened.

The young monk stood up and informed Shen Qiu respectfully:

"Wake up again. Master said you can go in."

After saying that, the little monk made a "please" gesture towards Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu curled her lips and smiled at Li Yue and Li Jingchuan:

"Then I will go and 'pray' for myself now."

After the man entered the door, the young monk stayed outside and carefully closed the door. Then he glanced at Li Yue and Li Jingchuan:

"You two, please wait a moment."

"Master said that when Mr. Shen leaves, he will see you."

Li Jingchuan nodded towards the young monk:

"Thanks for your hard work."

After saying that, he took Li Yue to a bench nearby and sat down to wait.

Li Yue frowned and glanced at the place where Shen Qiu was standing just now:

"I used to hear Mrs. Qin mention Shen Qiu all the time. Every time I mentioned it, I felt that Shen Qiu should be the same as Mrs. Qin, a person with inner problems."

"Now it seems that I was right."

Li Jingchuan narrowed his eyes, hugged Li Yue and said nothing.

The inner room of the courtyard.

Qin Zaixing slowly poured Shen Qiu a cup of tea:

"I know why you came to me today."

"But I won't let Mu Ran go with you."

"I haven't taken Mu Ran with me for a day since he was born. Although I have escaped into Buddhism, I still owe him the love between father and son in this world."

"This time, I will protect him."

Shen Qiu sat on the chair, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, while speaking calmly:

"I know you are protecting him."

"Otherwise, there is no way you would let him stay here."

The man put down the teacup gracefully and glanced at Qin Zaixing deeply:

"I came here today just to ask you, do you plan to use the favor I owe you this time?"
