The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1398: Chapter 1398: Why Are There So Many People?

Shu Yu pretended not to see the gaze of the Dongqing Temple master and asked again, “When did Master find out about these things?”

“Two days ago.”

The Dongqing Temple master understood the Face Reading Technique, naturally discerning that Zhong Hao was not possessed.

Last time, she arrived late, and Village Chief Zhong did not trust her. This time, she demonstrated her skills in front of the villagers, and many things she said came true, leading Village Chief Zhong to treat her as an honored guest.

But Zhong Hao dared not interact with her much, occasionally avoiding her, fearing she might see through him.

Unfortunately, in front of the Dongqing Temple master, Zhong Hao was still too inexperienced, acting furtively and soon revealing himself.

Seeing his exposure, Zhong Hao could only beg the Dongqing Temple master to show mercy and help him; he sincerely wanted to be with Li Miao.

Though the Dongqing Temple master came to investigate and solve the Zhong family’s issues, she was not unreasonable. She wouldn’t turn a blind eye to such trivial matters.

She went to see Li Miao, surprising to find that Li Miao and Zhong Hao were a match made in heaven.

If the two were to marry, their future would be harmonious, with the wife singing while the husband follows, leading to rare peaceful and devoted times.

Since it was a good thing and a predestined love, the Dongqing Temple master naturally welcomed it.

She agreed to Zhong Hao’s request. When the half-month period came, Zhong Hao ‘relapsed,’ but with the safety talisman from the Dongqing Temple master, this time he merely wandered the courtyard aimlessly at night, indifferent even to the chickens in the coop.

Compared to his previous state, he significantly improved, filling the Zhong family with immense joy.

However, the Dongqing Temple master stated that while the safety talisman was useful, it wasn’t a long-term solution. Once its effect wore off, Zhong Hao would relapse.

It would be best to find a girl whose birth charts and zodiac signs were compatible with Zhong Hao as a wife. Only then could his condition be controlled, and eventually, it would slowly dissipate.

The Zhong family was bewildered—where could they find such a girl?

The Dongqing Temple master provided a birth date and direction, and Village Chief Zhong soon found Miss Li and brought her over.

When Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng were at the Zhong family’s doorstep, they saw Village Chief Zhong bringing someone for the Dongqing Temple master to examine.

After confirming that Li Miao was indeed Zhong Hao’s destined one, the Zhong family, though disappointed, had no choice but to accept for Zhong Hao’s sake.

Li Miao was from the same village, and the Zhong family knew her well. Though her family background was lacking and burdensome, she had a good character.

Zhong Hao’s wish was granted, but for the Dongqing Temple master, it was simply helping things along.

With their compatible faces, they would have ended up together eventually, even without her assistance. There would just have been more twists and challenges along the way, but the outcome would be the same.

Hearing this, Shu Yu couldn’t help but glance at her again and again.

The Dongqing Temple master frowned, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Master, who would have thought you could also play the matchmaking role of the old moon deity.”

The Dongqing Temple master, “…” Did she forget that Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng met each other at the Dongqing Temple??

As they spoke, the carriage had already entered through the city gates.

The city appeared livelier now, with bustling crowds ahead.

Shu Yu poked her head out and exclaimed, “Why are there suddenly so many people?”

Meng Yunzheng calmly took a sip of tea, “It’s probably because the exam results have been released.”

Shu Yu was stunned, turning her head mechanically, “What, what did you say??”

“He said today is the day the exam results are announced.” The Dongqing Temple master repeated for him.
