The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Shallow Familial Ties, Deep Marital Bonds Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Shallow Familial Ties, Deep Marital Bonds Master Yu Chen sat upright on the soft seat.

His fair face was imbued with Buddhist nature, the prayer beads in his hand carved with Sanskrit scriptures, and his entire being exuded an indescribable aura of a recluse.

Xuan Zhen had never expected to encounter Master Yu Chen at the airport!

As the abbot of Longshan Temple, Yu Chen became a monk at the age of three, born with the bones of the Buddha, famously innately pure, destined for monastic life from birth.

But Xuan Zhen knew that Master Yu Chen was no ordinary person!

In Beijing, many prominent figures would seek Master Yu Chen’s counsel, personally visiting Longshan Temple, and not even then could they be sure of gaining an audience with Master Yu Chen.

The last time Master Yu Chen descended from the mountain was to solve the last globally shocking influenza virus outbreak, personally devising a resolution; everyone in Beijing’s circles who should know was aware of this!

Xuan Zhen was intent on asking Master Yu Chen to follow him back to the Xuan Family home.

“Master Yu Chen, my family has recently been in turmoil, and I would like to invite you to perform some rituals for us!”

Yu Chen closed his eyes, his face as youthful as a boy’s, with the startling beauty of a startled swan, lips red and teeth white, stern as the cold star, yet as refreshing as the spring breeze, between his handsome and desolate features, radiated Buddhist nature.

“Amitabha, Benefactor should trust in science. If there is unrest at home, isn’t it quicker to call the police? This humble monk truly has no other method.”

Xuan Zhen knew that Master Yu Chen was difficult to invite, but he didn’t expect him to be this immovable!

“Master, no matter what the conditions, please state them at your leisure, I will agree to anything!”

“You have mistaken me for someone else, I am not Yu Chen.”

Xuan Zhen’s face took on a hint of bewilderment!

He had once seen Yu Chen from a distance while accompanying Elder Xuan and indeed remembered such a face. Could it be that he had mistaken the person?

At the entrance of the VIP room, a cold voice suddenly erupted.

“Monk, let’s go.”

“Eh, coming.”

Yu Chen saw Qingwu standing at the door, quickly got up, and followed her, completely ignoring the presence of Xuan Zhen!

Xuan Zhen had seen the Shen Family’s live broadcast and various news publicly released; Shen Dongli and Shen Boyi had given a significant number of Shen Clan shares to Qingwu, and Xuan Zhen knew what she looked like.

Seeing Qingwu and Yu Chen walking together, seemingly quite familiar with each other, Xuan Zhen followed them!

“Lady Shen, hello, I am Xuan Zhen.”

Qingwu slightly turned her head, looking at the man who followed behind her.

Xuan Zhen looked nothing like Xuan Jing, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with a pair of eyes glittering with charm, appearing cultured and debonair at first glance, like a scholar.

Qingwu said indifferently, “Is there something you need?”

“It’s like this, the Xuan Family home has recently been quite troubled, and I would like to invite Master Yu Chen to be a guest at the Xuan Family, to see if there’s any malevolent presence… Perhaps Lady Shen could do me the favor? I would be immensely grateful.”

Qingwu’s gaze fell onto Yu Chen.

“Do you perform rituals?”

Yu Chen shrugged, “No, I told him to trust in science, and if that fails, to call the police, but he doesn’t believe me!”

Qingwu nodded, looking towards Xuan Zhen.

“He doesn’t do them, you should look for someone else.”

After these words, Qingwu turned and left alongside Yu Chen.

Yu Chen rubbed his hands, looking forward with anticipation, “Boss Qing, what delicious food are you treating me to this time? I heard you recently acquired a famous ancient painting, gift it to me, gift it to me!”

Qingwu said indifferently, “You are a monk, what do you need so many worldly possessions for, a burial accompaniment?”

Yu Chen obviously had grown accustomed to interacting with Qingwu. He touched his bald head and laughed in a bright manner, not looking at all like someone who had renounced worldly life.

“Everyone has hobbies, I just have a few more than most.”

Xuan Zhen watched their retreating figures, gritted his teeth and followed!

“Master Yu Chen…”

Yu Chen was discussing ancient paintings with Qingwu, and when he saw Xuan Zhen had actually caught up again, he became somewhat anxious.

“Benefactor, if you really can’t understand the teachings of Buddhism or human speech, this poor monk also knows a bit of boxing and martial arts!”

He looked at Xuan Zhen, somewhat displeased.

“Don’t stand in the way, do you understand? If you understand, then step aside!”

Xuan Zhen had no choice but to stand to one side, “Master Yu Chen, if you change your mind, you can still contact me…”

Yu Chen quickly caught up with Qingwu, not even sparing Xuan Zhen an extra glance.

After walking a few steps away, Yu Chen saw the suddenly appeared man, actually stood right next to Qingwu, looking exceptionally close.

“Huh, Miss Qing doesn’t like men getting close to her, you’re not just anybody.”

Yu Chen looked at Pei Jue’s handsome and cold features, and touched his own chin.

“Oh, her fiancé, that’s not surprising.”

At a glance, Yu Chen knew what the relationship between Pei Jue and Qingwu was.

Pei Jue had also met Yu Chen before, knowing how prominent the master was, but he didn’t expect the person Qingwu came to meet would actually be Yu Chen!

“Master Yu Chen, you know about my relationship with Qingwu?”

“I knew at a glance, no difficulty there.”

What surprised Yu Chen wasn’t the relationship between Pei Jue and Qingwu, but Qingwu’s attitude towards Pei Jue!

He has known this heartless girl Qingwu for so many years, and had never seen her allow any non-Beidou Star men to get close, let alone hold her hand!

Yu Chen chuckled with a hehe.

It seems for Qingwu, this man is obviously different.

Because of this, Yu Chen gave Pei Jue a couple more looks and said: “Young man, having shallow familial ties can be a good thing too! You were born with a lighter bond to parents and siblings; don’t brood over past troubles!”

“Sometimes, learning not to acknowledge kin isn’t necessarily a bad thing! People live, after all, to cultivate their own worlds!”

Pei Jue was somewhat astonished, and then saw Master Yu Chen heading towards the car, waving his hand as he went.

“Familial ties may be weak, but fortunately… hehe, it’s compensatable.”

Yu Chen’s kasaya was caught by the wind and flapped open a bit, letting the wind rush in, making his silhouette extra ethereal, as if accompanied by the sound of Buddha’s chanting.

Qingwu pursed her lips, “Although the monk can be unreliable and likes to talk nonsense, since he has said so, it’s not to deceive you.”

Qingwu also knew that Yu Chen generally doesn’t like to talk much, and if he spoke to Pei Jue in this way, it was probably because he saw the troubles that Pei Jue’s familial issues had brought him!

He has never been able to let go of the matter of his mother and also because of that incident, he has been unwilling to forgive his father, and his interactions with his brothers over the years have been scarce.

Elder Pei has been living in the hospital for years, the old lady is in a nursing home, and there are times when the family doesn’t see each other at all.

Qingwu couldn’t help but think of the desolate Pei Family.

That home, it doesn’t seem to have any homely feel at all, the house’s decorations could directly be used as a showroom.

Pei Jue looked down slightly at Qingwu in front of him, her fair side profile was exquisite and beautiful, her delicate skin seemed to be almost translucent, and a necklace showed a section of her delicate collarbone, with diamonds shining brightly under the light.

“Then I should thank Master Yu Chen, and also my friend.”

“But with the latter part of what Master Yu Chen said, I think the twenty-four years of hardship and loneliness are enough for me to come to terms.”

The latter part of what Yu Chen said…

Familial ties may be weak, but fortunately, the bond of marriage is deep!
