Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xu Qing looked at the teacup the old monk handed her and nodded as she took it. There was tea in the white porcelain cup. The teacup was as white as snow and there was a vivid lotus flower carved on it, giving off a peaceful vibe. She smelled the tea. It smelled very aromatic and was obviously high-quality tea.

Xu Qing sniffed it and tasted it slightly. However, she subconsciously frowned. “This tea…”

“How is it?” The old monk asked kindly.

“It’s very bitter… but there’s a sweet aftertaste.” Xu Qing seemed to understand something.

The old monk immediately chuckled. “Bliss comes after suffering! Since the heavens have already given you true love, why bother dwelling on the past and worrying about the future? Cherish the present.”

Xu Qing’s expression changed and she immediately looked up at the old monk. Just as she was about to ask something, the old monk smiled and shook his head. “Words are unnecessary!”

Xu Qing drank the remaining tea and enjoyed the aftertaste. She didn’t ask further.

“You have to remember the taste of this tea,” the old monk said meaningfully once again.

Xu Qing nodded. So her life was filled with happiness after suffering? The bitterness of her previous life in exchange for the blissfulness of this life?

At this moment, the old monk suddenly said, “That kid should be here soon.”

Xu Qing was a little confused. In the next second, she saw the door open and a tall figure rush over.

They had just been separated for a while, but Xu Qing didn’t know why when she saw Qiao Yanhui, she felt happiness, yearning, and even wanted to cry. In short, she had mixed feelings.

Qiao Yanhui saw Xu Qing’s teary eyes and immediately sized her up nervously. Then, he glared at the old monk angrily and asked, “What did you do?”

When Xu Qing saw their interaction, she felt that they seemed to know each other.

“I didn’t do anything! Don’t accuse me!” The old monk suddenly changed his tone.

This made Xu Qing feel like she was in a dream, because he was acting way too different from the mysterious monk he seemed like just now.

However, Qiao Yanhui continued to glare at the old monk.

Seeing that Qiao Yanhui was about to loose his temper, Xu Qing hurriedly pulled him back and comforted him softly. “Little Hui, I’m fine, really.”

Qiao Yanhui gave in again. Seeing that Xu Qing was really fine, he was relieved. Then, he snorted and said, “Let me introduce you. This old fart is my master, Tang Wanzong.”

If not for his master, Qiao Yanhui wouldn’t be where he was today.

When Tang Wanzong heard this, he was exasperated. If not for the fact that he still wanted to maintain his image, he would have flipped the table! Qiao Yanhui was simply too rude. He actually said that he was an old fart! He was Qiao Yanhui’s mentor!

Xu Qing was very surprised, but the way she looked at Tang Wanzong became even more respectful. “Greetings, Sir. My name is Xu Qing!” Since he was Qiao Yanhui’s mentor, he was also her mentor. After all, she could tell that Qiao Yanhui cared a lot about his mentor.

When Tang Wanzong saw Xu Qing, he immediately smiled and nodded. “You’re welcome.”

Qiao Yanhui sounded very displeased. “I’ve already said that I’ll bring my wife and children to see you. Why did you secretly meet her?”

Tang Wanzong poured himself a cup of tea and chuckled. “I was just curious! Can’t I be a little curious?”

Xu Qing couldn’t help but feel speechless. Was he really Qiao Yanhui’s highly esteemed mentor?

“Dad, Mom!” The three children’s voices came from outside the door. Xun Fen and Teng Nian also followed behind.

Tang Wanzong looked at the three cute children with fondness in his eyes. However, in the next second, he said helplessly, “Your three children… are all extraordinary…”

Being extraordinary meant that their lives were destined not to be peaceful. Their lives would be extremely turbulent and they would never be able to live an ordinary life.

Qiao Yanhui snorted. His children were definitely extraordinary!

“However, they will experience many hardships. They’ll be lucky if they survive, but if they can’t, it’ll be a tribulation!” Tang Wanzong’s voice became solemn.

It was precisely because of this that many parents would rather hope that their children would live a mediocre life than suffer, even if they might have an extraordinary life after the initial suffering.

Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui froze when they heard Tang Wanzong’s words.

“If it’s a calamity, even if it’s catastrophic, I’ll help them survive it!” Qiao Yanhui sounded determined and fearless. He would definitely protect his children.
