Chapter 639: When you love, you truly love!
Su Mengyu was puzzled. Zhan Yanxun, if you want to remarry Jiang Qianhui, why give her this phoenix hairpin instead of a diamond ring? Why this phoenix hairpin?
Does this phoenix hairpin have a story behind it?
"This phoenix hairpin was designed and made by Jiang Qianhui herself two years ago when she married me. She said she wanted to wear this phoenix hairpin when she married me, and that we would be together for life."
However, on the wedding day, the phoenix hairpin was stolen.
She was heartbroken and disappointed; her perfect wedding had been ruined. "I'm the one who has left her life devastated and filled with regret."
"Nobody wants this to be stolen, so you don't need to take the blame. It's good that it's been found now; maybe it's a good omen. If you lost something on your wedding day and it's been found now, maybe you'll get it back."
Su Mengyu couldn't bear to see Zhan Yanxun looking so dejected and disappointed, so she wanted to encourage him to cheer up.
However, she didn't know that this phoenix hairpin was no longer the same one as before.
"The original phoenix hairpin is lost; it was melted down into gold by the thief. This one has been remade."
Su Mengyu felt a little embarrassed. She had just told Zhan Yanxun that getting something back was a good omen, but now that the item was gone, was it destined to end?
Su Mengyu was just thinking about how to make up some excuse to comfort him when she heard Zhan Yanxun say in a deep voice, "I miss her. She married me wearing this phoenix hairpin, but... maybe it was all just wishful thinking. I originally wanted to give this phoenix hairpin to her as a wedding gift, but since she doesn't want it, there's no need to pick it up. Just throw it away!"
"Lost it? This is made of pure gold, and it's a gift from you. You made me lose it."
Zhan Yanxun said with a look of disappointment, "What's the point of keeping her if she doesn't want her?"
No matter how much effort she puts in, if she doesn't want it, it's nothing more than a piece of junk.
Su Mengyu said unwillingly, "Since you don't want it, can't you give it to me?"
"If you want it, you can have it."
Su Mengyu held the phoenix hairpin and played with it, the tassels on it were stunning.
"This phoenix hairpin is really beautiful. The person who designed it must have put a lot of thought into it."
Listening to Su Mengyu's words, Zhan Yanxun recalled Jiang Qianhui, who was happily spinning around in front of him with the phoenix hairpin in her hand.
She smiled radiantly and said, "Zhan Yanxun, do you think this phoenix hairpin is pretty? I want to wear it when I marry you."
Zhan Yanxun felt a sharp pain in his chest.
"She designed the wedding with love in her heart, and she was looking forward to it. I was wrong. I don't know what I should do to win her back."
He is Zhan Yanxun, he is omnipotent, but he has no way to deal with Jiang Qianhui.
Su Mengyu looked at the persistent Zhan Yanxun and said, "When you love someone, you truly love them. Have you ever thought that when you stop loving someone, you truly stop loving them?"
This phoenix hairpin isn't the original one. Even if you make it exactly the same, it won't change anything. Someone who doesn't love you will only see you as an obstacle in their path, even if you die.
Su Mengyu couldn't bear to see Zhan Yanxun troubled by love. Jiang Qianhui had already left, but he was still foolishly waiting at the crossroads where they parted ways. What could he possibly wait for to come back?
When you love someone, it's genuine; when you stop loving someone, it's because you no longer love them?
Su Mengyu's words deeply pierced Zhan Yanxun's heart.
Is it really beyond repair?
……
Cangxuan Mountain
Gu Xunjing stood in front of an old martial arts hall nestled deep in the mountains.
The person next to him said, "Young master, the person you are looking for is inside."
"I understand. You can go now."
The person left, and Gu Xunjing stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Open the door."
Gu Xunjing's voice startled the crows resting by the tree. A flock of crows flew by, creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere.
Gu Xunjing never expected that there would be a Taoist temple in this deep mountain forest.
That guy was hiding in a place like this; no wonder he was so hard to find.
Just then, someone opened the door; it was a thin, old Taoist priest.
"You don't need to call anymore, the person you're looking for isn't here."
"How did you know I came here for something before I even told you?"
“You have come to be my unfilial disciple.”
Gu Xunjing frowned and said, "It's not working. Where is it now?"
“Bu Ling knew you came to see her, and he couldn’t meet your request, so he left.”
"How did he know I was coming to see him? How did he know he couldn't do what I asked for?"
“It doesn’t work. He casts a divination for himself every day. Today, knowing that a guest was coming, he left because he didn’t want to see him.”
Gu Xunjing was furious. This little thing knew she was coming to find him and still ran away. Can you run away from the temple even if you can't?
"Since that's the case, then I'll wait for him here."
After Gu Xunjing finished speaking, he sat down. The old Taoist priest asked, "Are you really going to wait for him here?"
"Yes, no matter how long it takes, I will wait for him here."
The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "What you asked for is not possible; there is no way I can solve it for you."
"I haven't even said what I'm asking for yet, how do you know?"
"That pair of Tai Chi Yin Yang jade pendants were given to me because they were not effective. I told him to give them to someone who is destined to receive them."
Gu Xunjing instantly became alert.
The jade pendant the old Taoist priest mentioned is the one that Zhan Yanxun and Xiao Jiangbao were wearing.
"Since you gave me that jade pendant, you must have a way to break it."
"A father instills public virtue in his children; I, a humble Taoist, do not know what needs I have to resolve."
“But Xiao Jiang will soon become my daughter. What’s wrong with me doing good deeds for her?”
"This is only for use between blood relatives; you and she are not related by blood."
"What other way is there to replace it? As long as it can transfer merit to Xiao Jiangbao, I would be willing to have my bones removed and my blood replaced."
"You must be joking, benefactor. How could one possibly survive having one's bones removed and blood transfused?"
"Master, could you please give me a chance?"
"Since Heaven has already given you a chance, why should you ask me to give you another chance?"
Gu Xunjing was stunned.
Since Heaven has already given him a chance...
What does the Taoist priest mean? Does he know...?
Gu Xunjing steadied himself and said, "Since Heaven has given me this opportunity, please help me, Daoist Master, so that I can contribute merit to Xiao Jiangbao."
"Why do you do this? She's no longer in danger."
“She is not in mortal danger, but she can no longer live without Zhan Yanxun. I don’t want Sui Sui to be controlled by Zhan Yanxun. Daoist, please help me. I am willing to pay any price.”
"Ancient books record that there is a snake bone spirit stone, which is made from the skull of an ancient giant python, the Soul Serpent. Using the Soul Serpent as a medium, even if one is not related by blood, wearing it can transfer merit to those whose spiritual power has been damaged."
"Where is that snake bone spirit stone now?"
