The next day.
When Lin Lan woke up, Yu Yue had already prepared breakfast for her.
Using Moon’s email, Li Kui replied to Su Qingyue, informing her that the application result was that Moon had agreed to perform surgery on the child.
When Su Qingyue received the email, she was overjoyed. She immediately rushed from her current residence to the Fu family to personally deliver this good news to Fu Shen.
Upon hearing the good news, Old Madam was ecstatic and quickly called to thank Yu Yue.
Yu Yue was having breakfast with Lin Lan when she received the call.
“Congratulations,” Yu Yue said.
After hanging up, Yu Yue said to Lin Lan, “I’ll have them send over a video of the child later for you to see.”
“Mm, thank you, Yueyue.” Compared to last night, Lin Lan’s mood had improved significantly.
Having died once, her emotions were much calmer. Even if she occasionally felt agitated, she would quickly calm herself down.
“You’re welcome.”
“After breakfast, I’d like to go to Jing’an Temple.” Lin Lan wanted to burn incense at Jing’an Temple.
“Then I’ll accompany you.” Coincidentally, Yu Yue also wanted to burn incense for herself and the child in her womb.
“Okay.”
Yu Yue called Li Kui to say she was accompanying Lin Lan to Jing’an Temple. Li Kui asked if they needed a car; if so, he could have someone bring it over for them.
“No need, we’ll take a taxi.”
“Alright then.”
“Mm, that’s all. Call if anything comes up.”
“Got it. Unless absolutely necessary, I won’t disturb you two best friends during your alone time.”
“Senior Brother is so considerate,” Yu Yue said with satisfaction.
When the two arrived at Jing’an Temple, they were unexpectedly informed that Jing’an Temple was closed to the public that day, as Master Jing’an was personally receiving a distinguished guest.
“Distinguished guest? Who?” Yu Yue frowned.
What kind of distinguished guest could make the entire Jing’an Temple clear the way for just one person?
Master Jing’an wasn’t the type of master to be so unreasonable.
Jing’an Temple had hundreds of worshippers every day—were they all being turned away?
“Fifth Master of the Fu family. He is Master Jing’an’s lifesaver.”
“Fifth Uncle?”
“Does the benefactor know Fifth Master Fu?”
“She is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Fu family,” Lin Lan said to the young monk.
Ahem…
Yu Yue wanted to say she wouldn’t be for much longer, but since they had come all the way to Jing’an Temple to burn incense today, she really didn’t want to return empty-handed.
“So it’s all in the family. Please wait a moment, benefactors. I’ll go inside and report.”
“Alright, thank you, young master.”
The two stood there waiting idly.
After waiting for quite a while, Lin Lan didn’t want to wait any longer.
“Yueyue, maybe we should come another day,” she said, not wanting to trouble the young monk.
“Don’t. We’re all family. Fifth Uncle is very easy to talk to,” Yu Yue held Lin Lan back, telling her not to worry.
Besides, Yu Yue had her own little scheme.
Deliberately trying to arrange a meeting between two people would seem too intentional.
But now, with Fifth Uncle also at Jing’an Temple, this would count as a chance encounter.
A chance encounter doesn’t require any explanation.
And she could observe Fu Shen’s reaction from the sidelines.
Although letting these two meet like this did carry risks, there was also anticipation.
The two waited for about ten more minutes before they saw the young monk leading someone over.
It wasn’t Fu Shen.
It was Su Qingyue.
Seeing Su Qingyue, Yu Yue’s eyes instinctively narrowed.
Why was she here too?
Right, this is the sticky candy who likes Fu Shen and can’t be shaken off.
Last night, Old Madam had just promised to hold a grand wedding for them, and today, the two were already inseparable.
It’s fine. Fu Shen has difficulty moving his legs and feet, sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed around is indeed not ideal. Su Qingyue coming is also acceptable.
Lin Lan had lost her past memories, and when she saw Su Qingyue, her gaze was quite unfamiliar.
Su Qingyue spotted Yu Yue and Lin Lan from afar.
After approaching, Su Qingyue smiled at Yu Yue, acting as if she didn’t recognize Lin Lan beside her at all.
“Yu Yue, sorry, Fu Shen is asking Master Jing’an to pray for Tangtang’s blessings. It’s currently in progress and shouldn’t be interrupted. Is this your friend?” Su Qingyue finished speaking before generously glancing at Lin Lan.
“Yes, my best friend Lin Lan. Lanlan, this is Mr. Fu Jingyan’s childhood friend, Miss Su.” Yu Yue calmly introduced them.
“Hello, Miss Su.” Lin Lan nodded at Su Qingyue.
“Hello, Miss Lin.” Su Qingyue was dissatisfied with Yu Yue’s introduction, but she didn’t show it on her face.
After the greetings, Su Qingyue looked at Yu Yue: “Then let’s go in. After you finish offering incense, you can wait for Master Jing’an. Fu Shen and I will go to the hospital to see Tangtang later.”
“…”
Lin Lan’s body stiffened slightly. So, this woman before her was the mother of the little girl Yu Yue and Li Kui had mentioned?
Lin Lan had no impression of Su Qingyue at all.
But her first impression of her wasn’t good.
Perhaps it was because Yu Yue introduced her as Fu Jingyan’s childhood friend.
“Alright, thank you for your trouble.” Yu Yue accepted Su Qingyue’s kindness this time.
“We’re all family, no need to be so polite.” Su Qingyue’s demeanor was truly composed.
Without any flaws, it made Yu Yue momentarily uncertain whether her and Li Kui’s speculation was correct.
Su Qingyue asked a young monk to take them inside, while she took another small path to a different prayer hall.
On the way, she made a phone call.
Her expression instantly changed, losing the clarity she had when facing Yu Yue and Lin Lan moments before.
“Mom, I saw Su Cheng,” Su Qingyue said to her mother on the other end of the line.
“Where did you see her? You’re in the capital, and she’s out of town.”
“She’s back. And, you know what? She’s best friends with Jingyan’s wife.”
“Is that so? Does that affect you? If it does, I’ll have someone call her away.”
“If you can call her away, it’s best to do so. You and Dad should come to the capital quickly to finalize my marriage with Fu Shen. Also, I’ll do everything I can to save Tangtang’s life.”
“Alright, I’ll talk to your dad.”
“Thanks, Mom.”
“You’re welcome. Keep it up, sweetheart.”
“Mhm.”
After hanging up, Su Qingyue glanced sideways in the direction where Yu Yue and Lin Lan had disappeared and let out a cold laugh.
Before this, she had maintained an indifferent attitude toward Fu Jingyan and Yu Yue’s divorce. Now, she felt that Fu Jingyan should just dump Yu Yue sooner.
Although Su Cheng has lost her memory now, that face of hers fills Su Qingyue with disgust upon sight.
Yu Yue, who could become best friends with an amnesiac Su Cheng, is no good person either.
She only deserves to be Fu Jingyan’s discarded wife.
No wonder Fu Jingyan went abroad as soon as he woke up back then.
Su Qingyue returned to the prayer hall. After finishing her prayers, she found a reason related to Tangtang and coaxed Fu Shen into accompanying her down the mountain.
For Tangtang’s sake, Fu Shen did not suspect her.
Meanwhile, Yu Yue and Lin Lan still managed to meet Master Jing’an.
Afterward, Yu Yue discovered that Fu Shen and Su Qingyue had already left.
Yu Yue had wanted Lin Lan to meet Fu Shen, but in the end, they didn’t get the chance.
It didn’t matter. They were both in the capital, and she and Fu Jingyan hadn’t divorced yet. There would be opportunities in the future.
However, Yu Yue didn’t expect that before she and Lin Lan had even descended the mountain, Lin Lan’s business partner called Yu Yue, saying that the previous client had suddenly turned against them and needed her to rush over immediately.
