They could not help but be stunned when they arrived at the square outside the temple.
The majestic and solemn temple had turned into a ruin in the blink of an eye. There were broken walls everywhere.
Meanwhile, the monks in the temple ran out too. They were in pain when they saw the mess.
"What exactly happened?"
"Was it an earthquake?"
Everyone was still in shock. Fortunately, apart from a few of them who were slightly injured, nobody died.
"Brother, are you alright?" Zhang Daniu looked at Ye Chen while panting while hugging the urn.
Ye Chen smiled calmly. "I'm fine."
Luo Qing was among the crowd too. His face was extremely pale as he looked at Ye Chen. There was a faint fear in his eyes. "The Buddha statue broke and the temple collapsed. Did you do that?"
Only the temple had an accident. There were no signs of an earthquake outside the temple. Clearly, it was not an earthquake.
When they first entered, nothing happened to the temple at all. Ye Chen prayed, but the Buddha statue shattered and the temple collapsed.
His instinct told him that it had something to do with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled in a noncommittal manner.
"Luo Qing, what are you thinking? How could it have something to do with him? It should be a coincidence, "Wu Yan said with shock written all over her face. She was almost hit by the stone pillar when she came out earlier.
Zhang Daniu scratched his head. "That's right. I'm guessing that it was caused by an earthquake."
The few of them did not connect the scene before them with Ye Chen. After all, it was rather shocking just thinking about it.
Luo Qing took a good look at Ye Chen and said nothing. However, he dared not show up before Ye Chen anymore. He hid far away from him.
"Daddy, why did the Buddha statue break?" The little girl, on the other hand, looked disappointed and curious. She had not seen enough.
"Daddy has no idea," Ye Chen said while smiling.
At that moment, a beautiful silhouette walked over from the other side of the square. It was Xiao Ya. However, the bodyguard who had been following her earlier was gone.
Xiao Ya walked over and smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, Ye Chen. I just finished something."
Meanwhile, she was holding two bottles of Pulse Liquid.
"Don't worry about it."
Ye Chen smiled lightly and raised his brows. He asked, "Where's your bodyguard?"
"Oh, him …"
Xiao Ya paused and said in an unnatural tone, "Something happened at home, so I asked him to go back first."
Ye Chen gave a short response and said nothing more.
"By the way, are you guys thirsty? I passed by a supermarket on my way back just now, so I bought two bottles of drinks for you and your father." Xiao Ya shook the two bottles of Mai Dong in her hands and said enthusiastically.
Before Ye Chen could speak, the little girl in his embrace nodded immediately and said sensibly, "Aunty Xiao, I'm thirsty. Thank you."
"I-it's alright. I like you a lot." Xiao Ya smiled and passed the two bottles of Mai Dong to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen only took one bottle and said coldly, "Thank you. I'm not that thirsty. We'll just drink one bottle. You can keep the other one for yourself."
"No … It's okay, I'm not thirsty." Xiao Ya waved her hand.
"I'm thirsty too. You can give it to me."
At that moment, Luo Qing appeared out of nowhere and took the bottle of Mai Dong from Xiao Ya. He opened the lid and drank a few mouthfuls.
Luo Qing wiped his mouth after he was done. He looked at Xiao Ya shamelessly and said while smiling, "A beauty's drink is so different. It quenches my thirst."
"W-Who allowed you to drink it?" Xiao Ya glared at him angrily, her voice going a few decibels higher by instinct.
Luo Qing was shocked. "Calm down. I only drank one bottle of your drink. I'll give you another one later, okay?"
After saying this, he left directly, and as he walked, he drank the drink to the bottom.
"Daddy, I'm thirsty too. I want to drink too." The little girl was acting like a spoiled child in Ye Chen's embrace.
Ye Chen opened the lid and a strange expression flashed through his face. He opened his mouth and was going to take a sip.
"Ye Chen!"
Xiao Ya suddenly called out to him at that moment.
"What's wrong?" Ye Chen looked at her in confusion.
Xiao Ya waved immediately. "I-nothing!"
Ye Chen nodded and picked up the bottle of Mai Dong. He lifted his head and was going to drink it.
Thud!
Xiao Ya staggered and crashed into him all of a sudden. She knocked the bottle of Mai Dong onto the ground directly and the drink inside spilled all over the ground.
"I-I'm sorry. My legs are a little sore and I couldn't stand properly." Xiao Ya retreated a few steps back immediately. She was panicking.
The little girl looked bitter and looked like she was going to cry. "Daddy, I've run out of drinks."
"Don't worry. Daddy will buy you something later. You can buy whatever you want to drink," Ye Chen comforted her while smiling.
He lifted his head to look at Xiao Ya after saying that. "Do you have something to tell me?"
"N-no!"
Panic flashed through Xiao Ya's eyes. She shook her head at first and then nodded immediately. "Ye Chen, c-can you guys go back?"
"Go back?" Ye Chen frowned.
"That's right. Go home now. Don't go to Wumeng Grassland. Don't ever come again."
Ye Chen asked, "Why?"
"Ye Chen, can you stop asking so many questions? I won't hurt you." Xiao Ya suddenly covered her mouth and buried her head. She was panicking a little.
Ye Chen looked at her for a while and said while shaking his head, "I'm sorry. I'm here to fulfill my daughter's dream. I won't go back until I'm done with the grassland."
He carried Mengmeng to the supermarket at the side of the square after saying that. He bought her many snacks and drinks.
"The water in the car is full. Everyone, get in now. We'll depart now." The tour guide Huang Lin's horn came from the crowd.
Ye Chen carried Mengmeng and followed them into the car. Xiao Ya had been sitting since the beginning. Her pretty face changed slightly when she saw him. She clenched her fists tightly.
She seemed to be hesitating to speak.
"Brother, the tour guide said we'll arrive at the grassland in 20 minutes." Zhang Daniu came over, looking rather excited. He hugged the urn in his embrace tightly as he spoke.
"Yes, we're almost there."
Ye Chen smiled lightly. Subsequently, he glanced at Luo Qing who was sitting in the front row.
At this time, Luo Qing was reaching out and scratching his body. Sometimes he would scratch his arms, and sometimes he would scratch his back. He complained, "What the hell is this place? I'm so itchy."
As soon as he said that.
Xiao Ya, who was sitting next to Ye Chen, shuddered slightly. She said, "Sir, please stop the car. I want to get off."
The tour bus came to a stop.
The tour guide, Huang Lin, came over and asked in confusion, "Miss, the bus hasn't arrived at the Wumeng Grassland yet. Are you sure you want to get off in advance?"
"Yes!"
Xiao Ya nodded and picked up her bag. She glanced at Ye Chen and his daughter with a complicated expression. "Ye Chen, something came up. I'll get out of the car first."
She got out of the car without waiting for Ye Chen's reply after saying that.
The bus started moving again. Ye Chen looked at the direction where Xiao Ya had gotten off the bus in deep thought.
Until the car drove for a kilometer.
He looked up at the driver and said, "Sir, please stop the car. We want to get off too!"
