Yao Yao directly pulled me in front of Zhou Heng: "It seems we've come at just the right time today."
I faced Zhou Heng in this awkward manner. Since Yao Yao had said so, I couldn't dampen the mood, or I'd seem overly sensitive.
I reluctantly agreed and then turned to pull Yao Yao forward: "Sure, the vegetarian food at Qingyun Temple is delicious. I've had it before."
Yao Yao was a little reluctant as I pulled her along, and she whispered to me, "What are you dragging me for? I still have something to say to Master Zhou."
"You better shut up. Let me tell you, big mouthed Yao, if you talk nonsense, I'll be mad at you."
But Yao Yao just laughed, "Are you really mad? Haha, Ling Xiaomeng, this is the first time I've seen you blush like this."
I touched my face, feeling it burning hot.
In the end, I stuttered, "I... I got sunburned by the sun, didn't I?"
Zhou Heng was actually not far behind us. I thought he was so clever that he could see through it at a glance. Yao Yao wanted to say something, and also saw through my embarrassment, but he just smiled and said nothing.
Yao Yao turned around and called out to him, " Master Zhou, do you think the sun is very strong today? Xiao Meng said it's so strong that it turned her face as red as a persimmon."
I knew Yao Yao was doing this on purpose. I really wanted to cover her mouth.
Zhou Heng was momentarily stunned by her question, but then he glanced at my face and slowly said, "The autumn sunlight is not a problem. After washing your face at the temple, Daoist Ling's face will recover."
Yao Yao After listening, she laughed so hard that she bent over, while I stood there feeling awkward and wanting to escape.
Zhou Heng Suddenly understanding, his face also blushed slightly, and he said, "The sunlight on the mountain seems to have gotten stronger."
Yao Yao At this point, she was laughing so hard that she couldn't stand up straight, pointing at the two of us and almost running out of breath from laughing.
"Well, I also feel that the sunlight on this mountain is too strong. Both of you have turned as red as tomatoes."
I made eye contact with Zhou Heng, and his gentle gaze fell into my eyes, but I dared not look directly and quickly looked away.
"You can laugh all you want, but when you're done, there won't be any vegetarian meals left at the temple. I can't be bothered with you." I quickly made an excuse and hurriedly climbed the stone steps.
Zhou Heng probably felt awkward too, so he just followed behind me and we didn't speak again. Yao Yao was left behind, calling my name, and caught up with me.
I was walking very fast alone, and when I arrived at the temple, I went straight into the vegetarian hall.
Zhou Heng said that today is the fifteenth, so there are a lot of Pilgrims, and the vegetarian hall is full of people. I went in and there was no space at all. I came back out, thinking that I would have to go back down the mountain hungry for lunch today.
"Xiao Ling."
Suddenly, someone patted my shoulder from behind, which startled me and made me quickly turn around. It turned out to be the plump aunt from the cafeteria, whom I had met here before.
I was surprised that she could call out my name, so I awkwardly smiled and said, "Auntie."
A plump aunt raised her chin and said, "Don't worry, even though it's full inside, Master Zhou will make arrangements." I didn't know how to respond, so the plump aunt took my arm and led me to the side of the corridor, saying, "Wait for Master Zhou here. I just saw him come back." I was in a passive position and could only answer her, "Okay, thank you, Auntie."
I don't know if Yao Yao is with Zhou Heng now, and I don't know how many embarrassing things she has blabbed about me with her big mouth. I regret leaving her behind now.
"Hey, Xiao Meng Meng."
As soon as I finished sighing, she came up smiling and linked her arm with mine, saying, "Your Master is really elegant."
I was furious: "What do you mean by 'my Master husband'? big mouthed Yao, are you making things up again?"
Yao Yao giggled and held my hand, acting coquettish: "No, I was just trying to get close to the Master and see if he could draw a lucky symbol for me, like winning five million in the lottery, or getting a promotion and a raise, marrying a rich second-generation, and reaching the peak of life."
Me: "Did he draw it for you?"
Yao Yao pouted: "No, that's why I came to ask for your help."
I couldn't be bothered to deal with her directly, so I shook off her hand, sat on the railing, and sighed deeply. I really shouldn't have brought her here; it's like shooting myself in the foot. It hurts, but I deserve it.
" big mouthed Yao, let me tell you, Master Zhou is a practitioner. Don't speak ambiguously in front of him."
Yao Yao sat next to me, staring into my eyes and questioning, " Ling Xiaomeng, you've mentioned Zhou Heng in front of me many times. Can you honestly say you have no feelings for him at all?"
I closed my eyes, not knowing how to respond.
Yao Yao: "But I've noticed that Master Zhou has a strong liking for you."
I was so shocked that I jumped up from the railing, "What did you say to him?"
Yao Yao pointed at me and laughed, "Why aren't you pretending to sleep?"
"You almost killed me." I was really angry. Did Yao Yao really tell Zhou Heng something? I regretted bringing big mouthed Yao to Qingyun Temple and causing trouble for myself.
Zhou Heng came over gracefully, with a smile on his face, and called out to me from a distance, " Daoist Ling."
I quickly straightened up and forced a smile, " Master, I'm really sorry to trouble you."
"Not at all, is it, Master?" Yao Yao smiled and winked at Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng stood there with a smile, I really feel so passive.
"The dining hall is full, I'll take you to the back of the kitchen."
Yao Yao and I followed behind Zhou Heng. I kept sign Ye Ling her not to cause trouble. Hopefully, Zhou Heng won't take Yao Yao's words to heart, as he seems to be a very cultured person.
I comforted myself in this way and felt much better in my heart.
Zhou Heng led us to a small courtyard behind the kitchen, which was originally just a patio, so it was not spacious, with only a stone table and four stone stools.
Zhou Heng carefully placed cushions on the stools and gently said, "There are too many Pilgrims today, so I can only inconvenience you."
" Master, don't be so polite." It's clearly my fault that I caused trouble for Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng smiled faintly, "Are you all hungry?" " Master Zhou, do you think this is enough?"
I turned my head and saw Auntie Pang smiling as she brought the food over. She warmly greeted me, "Xiao Ling, I told you Master Zhou would arrange everything well." Yao Yao deliberately winked at me, and I pinched her wrist under the table, to which she grimaced at me. I quickly said, "The meal today is so abundant."
Zhou Heng and Aunt Wang have already set up the meal. Looking at the four dishes and one soup on the stone table, I was already very hungry and now I felt it was especially delicious.
Zhou Heng introduced, "This was made by Aunt Wang, so we made you wait a while."
The plump Aunt Wang said cheerfully, "I can't neglect Master Zhou's friends."
She seemed to deliberately look at me, handed me the chopsticks, and asked, "Xiao Ling, you haven't been to the Guanli for a while. You should come more often in the future."
