Fahua Temple.
Lu Tingxiao and Xiaobao were waiting in the car. Ning Xi quickly got out of the car and rushed to find Grandpa and the others.
Ning Xi walked around the crowded crowd that had come to burn incense early in the morning and headed straight for the courtyard behind the main hall. After passing through several corridors, she saw a familiar figure in a courtyard. In addition, there were Xi Boyi and two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, who should be Xi Shiqing's parents.
"grandfather… "
"Xiao Xi, you're here! Come here!" Ning Zhiyuan saw his granddaughter coming and hurriedly stood up and led her over.
"Grandpa Xi, Uncle, Auntie..." Ning Xi greeted them one by one, feeling a little uneasy.
The three members of the Xi family came over excitedly when they saw Ning Xi. Mother Xi grabbed her hand as if she had found a savior. "You are Xiao Xi? You are indeed a good child. No wonder our Qing Qing has been praising you for your excellence since you came back!"
Ning Xi originally thought that Mother Xi would criticize her, but unexpectedly, she praised her instead. She couldn't help but be stunned.
"Good boy, don't be nervous. Your grandfather just said it too seriously on the phone. We all know that this matter has nothing to do with you. Qingqing actually told us last night that you two feel that your personalities are more suitable for being friends..."
Hearing this, Ning Xi felt relieved and guilty at the same time.
She actually suspected Xi Shiqing before, but she didn't expect that he said nothing after he went back and kept speaking well of her.
What a sin... She really hoped that Xi Shiqing was a playboy who had no knowledge or skills, so that she could handle him more easily. But...
Mother Xi pulled her and continued with red eyes, "I didn't ask you to come here for any other reason. We have thought of everything we can think of, but we don't know why Qingqing suddenly wants to become a monk, so we called you out with the last glimmer of hope! I saw Qingqing's tone last night, and he really admires you. You two can chat so well, maybe he will listen to your advice. Good child, can you help auntie to persuade Qingqing?"
Old Master Xi said, "What do you mean by 'very appreciative'? I think this guy is most likely attracted to Xiao Xi. He likes this girl! When I said I had arranged a blind date for him the other day, he originally refused. But when I told him it was the daughter of the Ning family, he immediately asked me who it was. I said it was Xiao Xi, and he agreed right away..."
"Then why did he say after he came back that Xiao Xi wasn't his type and that she was more suitable to be friends?" Mother Xi looked puzzled.
At this time, Father Xi spoke up, "You know your son's personality. He's so passive and doesn't fight for anything. He's still young and likes Buddhism, which makes him even more dull... I think it's probably because Xiao Xi showed that she didn't have feelings for him first, so he just hid his true thoughts!"
Before Ning Xi could figure out how to explain it to them, the elders had already figured out the general process in their minds.
Although it is still different from the actual situation, it is better to let them misunderstand this way, so that she doesn't have to be at a loss for what to say.
After listening to Father Xi's analysis, Mother Xi also thought it was possible. "Could it be that Qingqing is really upset about this matter... This is also unlikely?"
Father Xi looked solemn, "When he was obsessed with Buddhism before, I was worried that this day would come. Sure enough... I should have stopped him from getting involved in these messy hobbies from the beginning!"
