Chapter 323 She is just her shadow
Wen Longxiu stared at him as he was about to feed her, feeling uncomfortable all over. She whispered, "No... No need, I can do it myself. I just need Master Kongchen to help me up."
Jin Chenzi glanced at her indifferently and said, "Donor, you should not get up now. It will not help your injury at all, and it may even ruin all your efforts."
"It is not appropriate for a woman to stay here for long. Donor, please take the overall situation into consideration and recover from your injuries and leave here as soon as possible."
How could Wen Longxiu not understand the meaning of his words? Looking at the environment in the yard, she knew that this must be an important Buddhist place. It was indeed not advisable for her to stay here for a long time. Besides, her parents would definitely be worried if they found out that she had been missing for so long.
Wen Longxiu lowered her eyes and acquiesced in his actions.
Jin Chenzi's expression was calm, with no emotion in his eyes, but his ears were still a little red.
The temperature of the hot porridge is just right, neither too hot nor too cold.
Wen Longxiu didn't dare to look up at him. She clenched her fingers tightly. She seemed to be able to hear her own heartbeat. Her face flushed a little. At this moment, she just wanted to finish the bowl of porridge quickly.
The only sound around seemed to be the spoon hitting the bowl.
It was clearly just a small bowl of porridge, but Wen Longxiu felt that the process took so long!
Finally, the last mouthful of porridge was swallowed.
But she clenched her hands again, having just loosened them. Jin Chenzi glanced at her lips, which were emitting a crystal light because of the remaining white porridge soup. His hands picked up the handkerchief beside him and wiped her lips.
Wen Longxiu widened her eyes, at a loss!
Jin Chenzi also came back to his senses instantly, his handkerchief dropped, he suppressed the panic in his heart, and stood up, "Since the donor is full, then take a good rest."
After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Wen Longxiu still in a daze.
Half a day passed, and with the help of the heavenly-grade elixir and her breathing regulation, she was soon able to sit up on her own.
Wen Longxiu checked her body and nodded with satisfaction.
But where did that stinky monk go?
Jin Chenzi sat cross-legged in front of the big Buddha, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Slowly opening his eyes, a flash of panic flashed across his eyes that had no desires, but it finally came...
A sentence that his master once said to him echoed in his mind: Jin Chen, you still have unfulfilled attachments in this world, so you cannot become a true disciple of Buddha!
Jin Chenzi was unwilling to give up, so he sought guidance from his master and was told that he only needed to practice in the Lingyin Temple on the Cangming Continent.
Wen Longxiu didn't see Jin Chenzi for the whole day.
Wen Longxiu was also happy to have some free time, and was recovering from her injuries all the time.

imperial capital.
The busy streets are bustling with activity.
But Wen Longting and Wen Chuyu had no intention of watching. Wen Longting even blamed herself extremely. If she had asked her elder sister, perhaps this would not have happened.
"Xiaoting, eat something first." Wen Chuyu touched her head.
"Brother, I'm not hungry. You eat first and I'll go look for it."
Wen Longting looked dejected. Without waiting for Wen Chuyu to answer, she got up and left the restaurant.
Seeing this, Wen Chuyu called An Yi to follow her.
Five days had passed, but she still had no clue. Her parents cried every day, and her elder brother and she hadn't slept for several days. She didn't dare to think in a bad way. Wen Longting looked at the crowds of people in front of her, hoping to see her elder sister.
"Qingfeng, how about we make a clay figure?"
"it is good."
The familiar voice behind her brought Wen Longting back to her senses. She turned around and saw Gu Qingfeng looking at the woman who was carefully making clay figures with his head down with deep affection in his eyes. It was a look she had never seen before.
Is that his fiancée? She didn't know why, but her heart ached.
Suddenly, Gu Qingfeng seemed to notice Wen Longting's gaze, and when he looked up, their eyes met.
The girl next to Gu Qingfeng raised her head, looked at Gu Qingfeng, followed his gaze, and stood there in a daze.
How could she look so much like her?
Wen Longting's eyes also flashed with disbelief. How could that woman...
She remembered the way Gu Qingfeng looked at her in the past and what he said in the cave. Her ears were buzzing. It turned out that he had always been looking through her at another person. The funny thing was that she was still deeply involved in it!
“I seemed to see myself.”
"Qingfeng, do you know each other?"
Hua Wuyou asked.
Gu Qingfeng came back to his senses and said to Wuyou with a smile, "Yes, a friend."
Wen Longting tried her best to suppress her inner emotions, pretending nothing happened, and walked forward with a smile, "Hi, Mr. Gu, long time no see, who is this?"
The call of "Mr. Gu" widened the distance between them, and a hint of apology flashed across Gu Qingfeng's eyes.
"Hello, my name is Hua Wuyou!"
Hua Wuyou stood up, patted the mud off his hands, and said with a smile.
"Hello, my name is Wen Longting."
"Nice to meet you. Fate is so subtle. Xiaoting, have you noticed that we look alike?"
"You know what? When I was little, I always wished I had a sister so I wouldn't be so..."
"Sorry, I have something to do, so I won't disturb you anymore!" Wen Longting suddenly interrupted Hua Wuyou who was chattering.
Hua Wuyou sighed and said regretfully, "Okay, see you next time."
Wen Longting responded indifferently, then turned and left.
"Qingfeng, you said she looks so much like me, could she really be my older sister?"
Hua Wuyou said as he looked at the receding figure.
"If Wuyou doesn't make clay figures anymore, the clay will become hard!" Gu Qingfeng did not answer her question, but reminded her. Hua Wuyou panicked when she heard this. This was a gift she wanted to give to Qingfeng, and she couldn't mess it up.
Wen Longting walked weakly on the street and unknowingly came to Ji Jiuying's tavern.
"Second Miss Wen?"
Grandma Zhang recognized her and knew she was the young lady's friend, so she quickly came over to greet her.
"Grandma Zhang, give me some wine."
Wen Longting sat weakly on the stool. Grandma Zhang signaled Daniu to bring some wine, while she stayed beside Wen Longting.
"Girl, are you unhappy?"
Grandma Zhang's words were like a pair of scissors that cut the rope that was tightly held in the hands of the person drowning in the water. The emotions that had been accumulated over the past few days burst out at this moment.
Wen Longting hugged Grandma Zhang and burst into tears. Grandma Zhang didn't ask her why, but let her hug her. She gently comforted her with her hands, "Girl, there is nothing in the world that you can't overcome. Cry! You will feel better if you cry."
After Wen Longting was tired of crying, she let go of Grandma Zhang, "Thank you, Grandma Zhang! Go and do your work. I'll sit here and calm down."
Seeing this, Grandma Zhang didn't know what to say. She could only keep an eye on her while working.
When Wen Chuyu arrived, Wen Longting had already fallen asleep on the table! There were still tears hanging on her eyelashes. Wen Chuyu touched her head distressedly.
