Chapter 141 Conspiracy

The third day of the Lunar New Year.

The He Family made a collective car journey to Qing Yun Mountain's Rui Yan Temple for the New Year's prayer for blessings.

Qing Yun Mountain was remote, and the Rui Yan Temple was not large; there generally weren't many pilgrims visiting it for the New Year.

After more than three hours of driving, they finally arrived.

Xia Zhi was sore in her back from sitting, and at the end was carried out of the car by He Jinnan.

"Why did you choose such a distant temple?" she asked, puzzled.

He Jinnan said, "This temple has a long history. Since great-grandfather's time, we have come here every New Year to pray. The prior abbot was a close friend of great-grandfather, maybe that's why."

"Oh," Xia Zhi said softly. "But I don't believe in Buddhism."

He Jinnan smiled, "It's okay, I don't really believe either. People say, 'Believe, and it exists; don't, and it doesn't.' A prayer can't hurt, think of it as accumulating happiness for our son."
