Chapter 483 Moths Drowning in Fire 10
"What are you doing?" Mao Xiaofang walked out with a serious expression. Looking at the noisy disciples, he couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness.
"I didn't say anything, Master. I have to go out for a bit!" Ah Chu said hurriedly, then walked past Ah Xiu and left with somewhat flustered steps.
Mao Xiaofang turned her gaze to Xiao Hai, her eyes questioning, "Tell me!"
Xiao Hai gave a wry smile, his heart filled with conflict. "Master, I don't know what to say!"
His gaze was somewhat evasive, as if he were hiding something.
Ah Xiu snapped out of her daze, a hint of sadness and disappointment in her eyes. "There's nothing wrong with saying it. I like Ah Chu, but he doesn't like me!"
“Uh,” Mao Xiaofang paused for a moment, a wave of sympathy washing over her, and she cautiously advised, “You can’t force matters of the heart!”
“That’s right, Ah Xiu, Ah Chu has someone she loves. Forcing her will only hurt her and herself!” Ren Yinyin also advised softly.
Upon hearing this, Ah Xiu looked at Ren Yinyin with a hint of envy in her eyes, "Senior Sister, how did you and Senior Brother get together?"
Her heart was filled with doubt and longing, hoping to find some answers from Ren Yinyin.
When Shi Shaojian heard Ah Xiu's words, he was shocked. He remembered that he had been trying to change Yin Yin's opinion of him since he was a teenager.
Fortunately, he never gave up, which is why he was able to have the woman he loved by his side!
However, there's no need for others to know about these past events!
"Uh," Ren Yinyin didn't know how to explain. Her relationship with Shi Shaojian was a long story. After thinking for a moment, she summarized it simply, "We got to know each other, and then we got together!"
Shi Shaojian smiled without saying a word. Without his painstaking efforts, how could Yin Yin have been willing to understand him?
"Ah Xiu, a relationship is just a small stage in life, you'll get through it!" Ren Yinyin felt that she was being a bit presumptuous in saying this, but she genuinely believed that relationships weren't that important!
If you like someone, be together; if you don't, break up! Feelings aren't like air; you won't suffocate without them!
Perhaps some devoted men and women believe that without love, life has no meaning, but Ren Yinyin is not like that. She doesn't see Axiu as being so persistent either!
……
Ah Xiu kept herself locked in her room. If she didn't need to eat something, everyone was afraid she would starve herself to death.
Seeing her like this, Achu didn't even dare to go back to Fuxi Hall, for fear of encountering everyone's condemning gaze.
He's really innocent!
Does Ah Xiu's affection for him mean he has to reciprocate?
Ren Yinyin and the others took turns trying to persuade Ah Xiu, but Ah Xiu's attitude remained unchanged. Helpless, Mao Xiaofang had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.
"Uncle-Master, if you also want to persuade me, then you don't need to say anything!" Ah Xiu said coldly.
"I just want to tell you some principles!" Mao Xiaofang said slowly, his hands behind his back.
"I used to learn Taoist arts from my master, who was also your grandmaster. Once, when I was learning to draw talismans, I saw my master set up an altar and perform a ritual. He burned one of the talismans I had drawn. I was heartbroken because I knew I could never draw such a beautiful talisman again!" Mao Xiaofang recalled.
“The talisman is for use; whether it’s pretty or not doesn’t matter!” Ah Xiu said firmly, but a hint of confusion appeared in her eyes.
“Yes, I didn’t understand back then. If you don’t use a talisman, you’ll never know what effect it has!” Mao Xiaofang looked at Axiu.
"Some things, if left unverified and kept in your heart, are as good as nothing!"
"Just like when you like someone, confirming it doesn't make you feel more at ease!"
"Uncle-Master, didn't you say you didn't understand matters of the heart?" Ah Xiu asked. If Uncle-Master could say such things, he shouldn't be ignorant!
"I've never liked anyone before, so of course I don't understand!" Mao Xiaofang said with a smile. "But some recent events have made me understand a few things!"
"Life is like walking; if you fall into a pit, you'll avoid pits in the future!" Mao Xiaofang's words revealed a world-weary wisdom.
"But if he falls down and doesn't get up, then even if he understands, it's useless!"
"But this fall really hurt!" Ah Xiu said, somewhat unwillingly. This was the first time in her life she had liked someone, and she never expected...
“But no matter how much it hurts, the wound will heal. You’ll understand when you grow up!” Mao Xiaofang comforted him, his eyes filled with love and care.
Ah Xiu listened silently, and the pain in her heart was gradually replaced by warmth.
After a long while, Ah Xiucai slowly spoke: "Uncle-Master, I think I understand."
She looked up, the sadness in her eyes had faded considerably. "I shouldn't keep dwelling on this pain. It's my business if I like Achu, but if he doesn't like me, I can't force him."
Mao Xiaofang nodded with relief, "It's good that you can understand. Life is long, and you will meet the right person for you in the future."
From then on, Ah Xiu stopped locking herself in her room and regained her former vitality.
Seeing her like this, Achu felt relieved and returned to Fuxi Hall.
Life continued as usual, but after this incident, everyone seemed to have grown a lot.
Ren Yinyin and Shi Shaojian remained happily together, and they were happy for Ah Xiu's transformation.
Looking at his disciples, Mao Xiaofang was filled with emotion. Life in Fuxi Hall, though occasionally filled with minor incidents, was also full of warmth and hope.
……
Time never stops for anyone; those unforgettable memories seem to have slowly faded away with the wind.
Song Zilong fell seriously ill. When he woke up and saw his father's gray hair and haggard face, he realized something!
He couldn't abandon his family and follow Yingying in death; he had his own responsibilities and duties!
Song Zilong decided to pull himself together, take good care of his father, and handle the affairs of the police department.
He became more and more composed and worked harder and harder. Director Song was a little worried when he saw his son like this, but in the end he felt relieved!
People cannot grow without experiencing hardships!
At Fuxi Hall, Ah Xiu also began to focus more on learning Taoist arts. She made rapid progress, which surprised Mao Xiaofang.
When Mao Xiaofang went out to exorcise demons, he also took Ah Xiu with him so that she could put the Taoist arts she had learned into practice!
As always, Achu stayed by Shu Ning's side to help her, and Shu Ning seemed to have gotten used to having him around. Their relationship was developing very steadily.
Xiao Hai is a kind and gentle person who doesn't want to force things when it comes to relationships.
He feels content as long as everyone is doing well!
Shi Shaojian received a letter from Shi Jian sent by a paper crane, asking him to return home.
Ren Yinyin didn't want to travel around. She liked Gantian Town. She and Shi Shaojian agreed to meet in Renjia Town two months later!
Shi Shaojian had no choice; he could never refuse any of Ren Yinyin's requests. He could only bid her a reluctant farewell and leave Gantian Town, turning back every few steps.
Ah Xiu had gained a deeper understanding of matters of the heart. She smiled and said to Ren Yinyin, "Senior sister, look at senior brother. Doesn't he jump for joy whenever you say you've changed your mind?"
"To be honest, no matter how harmonious a relationship is between two people, I still think they need some private space!" Ren Yinyin's feelings were completely opposite to Shi Shaojian's. With Shi Shaojian gone, she felt so free!
Although it was a bit heartless, the thought of sleeping in such a big bed all by herself at night made her happy!
