Shen Yao did not follow Gu Tianyou inside to see the abbot, but instead wandered around the temple.

"Host, I am Gu Tianyou."

Gu Tianyou, wearing Buddhist prayer beads and with his hands clasped together, entered the abbot's meditation room.

The host sat on a prayer cushion and nodded slightly to Gu Tianyou.

The door closed.

Gu Tianyou sat cross-legged in front of the host.

"Is Old Master Gu alright?"

When the host asked about his grandfather, Gu Tianyou remained silent for a long time before his face turned somber.

"Grandpa has been gone for almost 10 years."

The abbot's hand, which was turning the prayer beads, paused slightly.

He closed his eyes slightly and sighed.

"No wonder I keep dreaming about it; it turns out the ancients have already passed away."

"Very well, ask whatever you want to ask. Consider this a way of repaying your grandfather's kindness from back then."

Gu Tianyou had no idea what the relationship was between his grandfather and the host.

However, my grandfather once told me that if I ever had any questions about destiny, I could come to the abbot.

Gu Tianyou had many questions.

Regarding how much longer I have to live, regarding my marriage...

Facing this elderly man who was about the same age as his grandfather, Gu Tianyou laid out all his doubts.

Upon hearing Gu Tianyou's words, the host nodded, raised his eyes, and said gently, "Let me see your hands."

After a long silence, the host finally spoke.

"Alas, your life was destined to be long... but this is already a very good outcome. As for your marriage, forcing it will only bring bitterness and no sweetness, but since things have come to this, persevere. Perhaps you will see the light at the end of the tunnel."

Gu Tianyou only asked two questions.

The first concern is about my own body, and the second is about my marriage.

He didn't tell the host the specifics.

However, the host actually guessed exactly what he was going through.

"Would the other person be willing to continue this relationship with me?"

Gu Tianyou still couldn't give up and asked again.

Although he knew this was a difficult question to ask.

Or perhaps it's self-comfort.

However, Gu Tianyou still asked the question.

The host gave Gu Tianyou a meaningful look, and finally nodded.

"Faith will move mountains to open."

"Really?" Gu Tianyou was still not quite convinced and asked again.

The host, with a smile on his wrinkled face, took out two strings of prayer beads from behind him and handed them to Gu Tianyou.

“Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.”

Gu Tianyou accepted the Buddhist prayer beads from the abbot, bowed deeply to him, and left the meditation room.

The sun was shining brightly at 11 a.m.

A strong wind was howling in the air.

Shen Yao knelt on a prayer mat, her hands clasped together, seemingly praying for something.

The morning sunlight did not reach inside the temple.

The woman's figure was shrouded in shadow inside the room.

It looked so bleak and desolate.

Gu Tianyou stood not far away, watching the woman's figure, and clenched his fists.

"Mr. Gu, it's been a long time."

A sarcastic voice sounded from behind.

Gu Tianyou turned around and found a middle-aged man who was probably in his forties.

He felt that the man looked somewhat familiar.

However, I can't remember it right away.

"who are you?"

The middle-aged man sneered.

"Mr. Gu really does have a bad memory."

Judging from the middle-aged man's tone, Gu Tianyou seemed to recognize him.

However, after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't remember who the person was.

"Either tell me who you are, or get out of here."

Seeing that Gu Tianyou was angry, the man remained unmoved and instead laughed even louder.

"Mr. Gu, your temper is still as bad as ever. It's alright, I'll make you remember who I am."

After he finished speaking, he glanced deliberately in Shen Yao's direction.

Gu Tianyou keenly sensed the middle-aged man's intentions.

He grabbed the middle-aged man by the collar and said threateningly, "I'm warning you, don't you dare make any moves on her."

The middle-aged man deliberately raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Tianyou with a provocative gaze.

"Mr. Gu, I didn't say or do anything, why are you so agitated?"

"I'm telling you this: if you dare to do anything bad to my wife, your whole family will be ruined."

Gu Tianyou tightly gripped the middle-aged man's collar.

The middle-aged man was so tense from being strangled by Gu Tianyou that his face turned bright red and he almost fainted.

Just when he was about to catch his breath, Gu Tianyou finally let go of his hands.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The middle-aged man was panting heavily.

I rubbed my neck.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Tianyou was now tinged with a hint of apprehension.

However, it was only half a portion.

A few seconds later, he laughed again.

His smile carried a hint of provocation.

"Mr. Gu, I have other matters to attend to today, so I'll be leaving now. We'll have another chance to meet."

After saying that, the middle-aged man turned and left without waiting for Gu Tianyou's response.

Gu Tianyou narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately called Chen Jie.

"I'll send you a photo later. Can you check this person's background for me?"

"Yes, Mr. Gu."

Chen Jie has been quite free lately.

For the past two months, Gu Tianyou has not assigned him any work.

So when he heard that Gu Tianyou had actually asked him to do the work, he immediately became very alert and contacted the hackers in Shenzhen.

When Shen Yao got up and walked into the sunlight, she saw Gu Tianyou standing in the corridor not far away, waiting for her.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"A few minutes."

"What did you talk about with the host?"

"About you."

Gu Tianyou and Shen Yao walked and talked.

Shen Yao never expected that Gu Tianyou, a businessman who values ​​profit over sentiment, would be so close to a master like the host.

She never expected that this man would go to see the master not for business, but for her sake.

"You talked about me with the master?"

Shen Yao turned her head and looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.

"Can't I? You're my wife."

The man had his hands in his pockets, his eyebrows slightly raised, and his eyes held a questioning yet probing look.

wife?

Shen Yao murmured those two words to herself.

"can."

Shen Yao was very curious about what Gu Tianyou and the master had talked about.

Gu Tianyou refused to speak, but grabbed Shen Yao's wrist and said slowly and deliberately, "Yao Yao, if I am happy and joyful in the second I am with you, then I would be willing to die even after that second."

Shen Yao frowned, her face darkening.

"Isn't it good to live a good life? Don't keep thinking about these trivial things."

The smile in Gu Tianyou's eyes held a hint of melancholy.

He looked at Shen Yao and voiced his concerns.

"I'm afraid that one day when you think about the past, you'll suddenly stop loving me. Shen Yao, you don't know how afraid I am of losing you."

The man's expression was so serious that Shen Yao found it hard to doubt that he was lying.

Is this a man confessing his love to her?

Shen Yao looked up at the man, and suddenly saw a woman walk out from behind her.
