131 Chapter 131 : Change Plans (1/2)

The outside of the monastery became eerie silent at that moment and the sound of the dried leaves being stepped on were creating a loud noise.

Secretary Yang Bo is waiting at the foot of the long stairs. He stares at his two masters who seem to be in the middle of a very serious conversation.

He's puzzled what they were talking about since the young master has that desperate look on his face while the young madam has an inquiring and serious expression. Most likely they look like they are arguing.

He wanted to walk towards them but his mobile phone suddenly rings. He quickly pulls out his phone and to his surprise, the old master Xing is calling him again.

”Yes, master?”

”I've seen the photos and articles. Very nice, Yang Bo. Tell me, where are the love birds now?” the old Xing asked delightedly.

”Master, we are currently in a monastery for a fortune reading. I think they just finished their session.” Yang Bo said as he looks back at the couple again, still discoursing something serious.

”Fortune reading? I didn't know my son is interested in stuff like this. Anyway, let my good son and daughter-in-law know I gifted them a villa at Village's East. The villa is guarded and protected. Also, the feng shui expert is ready to receive their inquiry in case they want to revamp the interior. No one knows that they are living in that mansion, for sure it'll be hard for that harlot to find them.” the old Xing bluntly said.

Village East is known for being a celebrity and billionaire's homes. Vast land for each villa that has incredible architecture, an elite community, and wide range of owned property. Due to the mansions' incredible designs, most houses are known for being used or rented for music videos, dramas, and movies.

Usually, a celebrity who owns a land there are celebrities who have been in the industry for a very very long time now. Since a piece of land is worth millions, the majority of the people who live there are businessmen.

”I will report this to the young master.” Yang Bo dutifully vowed. He quickly imagines what the villa looks like since it resides in the Village East. He's not sure if the young master will abide since he also has his own property there.

Back to the couple, the tension between them made the other monks to not approach them. Since it's not in their vocabulary to eavesdrop on other people's affairs, they went back to meditating or cleaning the monastery.

”Wha-what do you mean by feeling secure. I… I don't know.” truthfully, she doesn't know either. Her sisters' failed marriages were imprinted in her head. She thinks that love in modern times is too tragic and it might be the same for her.

”Wait -- don't change the topic. If you don't think about her anymore, why do you keep mentioning her name during your sleep? You even cry!” Xiulan made sure they will not leave this topic until she's satisfied with his answer. He's really good at diverting the topic to something else, she noticed it whenever she tries to interrogate him. She may look like a jealous lover right now, but she wants to make this relationship work, even though she's still in denial of her feelings.

Hongqi's thick eyebrows furrowed, ”Ah...” he became speechless. He doesn't know either why he mentions that damn woman's name. He might be having a nightmare during those times.

”My love, just because I'm mentioning another woman's name during my sleep doesn't mean that I'm having a nice dream. It could be a nightmare, you know.” he insists. He made a quick search in his memory if he can remember a dream where he dreamt of something good regarding that woman. But he can't remember anything, in his memory, only the good stuff with the wife is playing.

Xiulan frowned at his answer. He really has a point but the multiple mentions of that woman's name were quite disturbing for her. ”Nightmare, huh? Nightmare my ass.” she almost whispered her last sentence.

It's been a long time since Hongqi had a lover's quarrel. His ex flings would always act submissive and never initiated an argument. Since the wife is more courageous these days, her honest questions and inquiries sometimes lead to misunderstandings and cause an argument between them. This is actually a nice development.

”Love, I am being honest here. I don't have any wet dreams for that damn woman.” Hongqi's slightly frustrated. How can he save himself when he's sleeping and having a nightmare at that time? He can't even pull out a piece of good evidence that's he's innocent.
