Chapter 1822 - 1820: Looking at Each Other in Disbelief

Tang Rao's intention was to let them choose.

During the days when Tang Rao was stimulated, he did this too, but those times he said it first, talked about it and then let it go. The girls didn't take it seriously. This time, although Tang Rao didn't say he wanted them to leave, his heart was full of the idea of letting them go.

"If you want to leave, then leave. If you wish to stay, then stay. It's up to you."

He wouldn't force people to leave when they chose to stay. Tang Rao wouldn't be so heartless.

"People and animals both have feelings. I believe that even if he doesn't like us, he wouldn't ignore the sisters. We'll pretend we never heard what was said before. Whether love or not, we don't care. Let's continue living as before, peacefully, avoiding misunderstandings."

Wang Han's time with Tang Rao wasn't longer than other women's, but her feelings for him were just as profound. Not looking at the monk, but looking at the Buddha. Even if Tang Rao truly doesn't like the women, the children are still his. The one in Xiao Bai's belly can't be discarded just because of a lack of feelings.

"Your women and your mother need you. They live for you. Don't continue hurting them. Only when you're well, can they be well. Don't worry. Master will think of a way to rescue your mother without involving women you dislike."

Is there really a way to save someone without getting involved?

Tang Rao sincerely didn't want more life debts. There was indeed some consideration for Wu Suowei's suggestion.

"Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Holding onto those ideas but not using them to help Tang Rao? Wu Suowei is quite unkind with this.

"I just said I'd look for other ways. I didn't say such a way definitely exists. Don't be too happy early on, to avoid greater disappointment than hope later."

Wu Suowei started by laying out the worst plan for Tang Rao, so Tang Rao wouldn't prepare a retreat first.

"As long as there's hope, what's a little disappointment? Why are you standing there? Hurry up and find a solution. I'm waiting for you to come up with one."

Tang Rao just didn't want Chen Jingyi and her father to have him entirely in their grasp. He didn't believe there wasn't a better solution than being with Chen Jingyi.

"Wait, if you start thinking of another solution, what will happen to us father and daughter?"

Chen Jingyi blocked Tang Rao's way. After listening to Tang Rao's words, she softened. Her resolve wasn't as firm as before.

The biggest difference between Tang Rao and Gu Yi is authenticity. He shows emotions on his face, unlike Gu Yi who thinks one thing, shows another, and does something else, playing three roles. It used to seem fine, but now it feels exhausting to be like Gu Yi while Tang Rao's way is more relaxed.

"What do you mean 'you all'? What relationship do I have with you?"

Tang Rao didn't think there was a need to continue talking with these two. With so much time, he preferred having a good time with genuine people than with disdainful ones.

"I don't care. You promised that if I followed you, I could enter and exit the Kao Shan Shop freely. Want whatever I wanted. At this point, you can't regret it, right?"

Crazy in the head?

Hearing Chen Jingyi's words, Tang Rao's first thought was this.

As far as he remembers, it was Chen Jingyi who looked down on him, and now she suddenly wants to cling to him? Was it really that scornful woman just now?

"Who are you? People like us aren't worthy of you. I suggest you return home early. That previous man was quite suitable, arrogant enough to match your temperament; really reflects your vibe."

Whether that vibe is good or bad, Tang Rao isn't going to clarify for Chen Jingyi.

"What do you mean? You made me break up with Gu Yi, leaving me without a husband. You're obliged to compensate with another. Either give me back my previous one or be my husband. I've set my sights on you."

Chen Jingyi's arrogance was entirely visible. She listened to Wu Suowei earlier and knew Tang Rao's intent in coming to Kao Shan Sect was to save his mother. He wouldn't have come to this point otherwise.

"Where should I find your husband for you? Your lack of a man has nothing to do with me. If I helped you realize that he wasn't true love, you should be grateful not accuse me falsely."

Tang Rao considered accepting, but after accepting, who knows what complications this woman might cause?

He didn't want lice crawling on his head.

"Anyway, I don't care. Kao Shan Sect will be my home now. My father and I will live here. Whenever you figure things out, we'll get married. Even if you never do, we'll stay here. I don't think your Tang Family's fortune will suffer from us staying."

This maneuvering is truly Chen Jingyi's style.

She decides not to marry yet insists on it. If everything goes her way, Tang Rao's existence seems pointless.

"My little temple can accommodate people, but accommodating two big Buddhas like you and your father is a bit difficult. If possible, I hope you return soon and don't disturb my family's peace. My Zijing City's meals aren't meant to feed idlers."

Calling these two idlers was a courtesy. At least an idler wouldn't bother Tang Rao, but these two are pure troublemakers. To avoid trouble, sending gods away might be hard, but he wanted these two deities gone.

"I'm not an idler. If you think I'm eating from your home, my father and I can bring our own rice from East Island. If our staying here is redundant, we can do something at Kao Shan Sect. Anyway, you're mine, whether you want it or not. You're not getting rid of me!"

Chen Jingyi was fearless and said whatever came to her mind. Unfortunately, Tang Rao wasn't a foolish youth easily swayed by kindness. He frowned and said: "Do as you please, just don't disturb me."

Then he left without showing any kindness.

Chen Jingyi and Chen Jingtian looked at each other.
