When Siyu made the call, she was actually a little nervous. She didn't know if she was still on the blacklist, so when the call was connected, she was actually stunned for a few seconds and forgot what she was going to say.
The man on the other end was also silent. Siyu could barely hear the sound of his breathing, but she could vaguely hear the very special sound of the sandalwood beads colliding up and down as he turned the prayer beads.
Chu Shuangyan quietly held her breath and tried to reduce her presence, but when she saw that neither of them said anything after the call was connected, she suddenly became a little anxious. She reached out and tugged at Siyu's sleeve. When Siyu looked over, she winked at Siyu: If you have something to say, say it quickly!
Siyu only came back to her senses after Chu Shuangyan's reminder. She bit her lip and thought that since the call was already connected, she might as well take advantage of this opportunity to make things clear. However, who knew if it was because she was a little nervous, the first thing she said was, "Lu Yuanhe, you're already here. Are you planning to leave without seeing anyone?"
There was a hint of questioning in her voice. Chu Shuangyan sighed and shook her head in admiration. Only Siyu dared to talk to Fifth Master Lu like this. If it were anyone else, they would have been dragged out to be fed to the fish long ago.
Siyu felt a little wrong after saying it, but if she took it back, she would appear guilty. She could only brace herself and continue. "I-I mean, I'm free right now. I'm not busy. You don't have to wait outside …"
Chu Shuangyan couldn't help but cover her face. She was anxious about the efficiency of these two people.
Fifth Master Lu quietly listened to her slightly anxious voice. After a while, he silently curled his lips. Ever since he talked to Ji Lin that day, the haze that had wrapped around his heart seemed to have disappeared because of Siyu's words.
For the past few days, he had been unable to determine what kind of feelings he had for Siyu, and he was also unable to determine if Siyu had the same feelings for him. This kind of uncertainty and uncontrollable situation made him unusually anxious and uncomfortable. Since he was young, he could only feel relaxed when he had absolute control, so he could not rashly approach Siyu under such circumstances.
He was afraid that he would lose control, and he didn't want to hurt Siyu.
However, the little girl on the other end of the phone was nervous and hopeful. She took the initiative to dispel this sudden cold war with her clumsy words. Fifth Master Lu's clearly very tense nerves slowly relaxed under her soft words.
After a while, Siyu still did not hear Fifth Master Lu's response. Just as she was wondering if this man was listening to her, a cold voice finally came from the other end.
Fifth Master Lu asked, "Have you finished your medicine?"
"…" He didn't answer the question. However, Siyu had been with Fifth Master Lu for so long. Most of the time, as long as she thought carefully, she could understand the hidden meaning behind his words. This reserved and coquettish man was never willing to speak properly. He had to beat around the bush a few times, as if he had a bad taste.
Siyu paused for a few seconds before she realized that this person was using the excuse of asking about the medicine to test if she was willing to meet. After all, if she finished the medicine, he would have to send a new batch over.
Her gaze fell on the herbs piled on the table. Because she was going to be filming for a long time, Shen Yue had packed enough herbs for her when she packed her things, so she wasn't lacking anything now. However, Si Yu replied, "I've finished them all."
Fifth Master Lu seemed to be very satisfied with this answer and said, "I'll send it to you."
For some reason, his voice was very soft, like a whisper. Even though they were still separated by the phone, Siyu seemed to be able to feel his breath when he spoke. Unknowingly, her ears were dyed with a thin layer of red.
It was as if the two of them were playing a guessing game. They had a tacit understanding. Siyu held the phone and did not know that from Chu Shuangyan's perspective, a smile had crept onto her lips.
"I … will wait for you downstairs." After saying this, Siyu's mind finally calmed down. She let out a long breath and felt that the depression she had felt for more than half a month seemed to have dissipated in this question and answer.
There was no irreconcilable conflict between them to begin with, nor was there an option to forgive or not. It was just that Fifth Master Lu's sudden disappearance made Si Yu feel unaccustomed to it, and after a long period of accumulation, this unaccustomed feeling silently turned into a faint yearning.
"You don't have to wait. I'm here," Fifth Master Lu said faintly.
This time, Siyu did not bother to think about it. She almost instantly understood what he meant. It turned out that this person had been waiting at the hotel from beginning to end. Siyu was angry and amused. If she did not make this call, would he not have asked to meet her?
After hanging up the phone, under Chu Shuangyan's curious gaze, Siyu quickly put on her coat and turned to walk out of the door. Halfway through, she stopped and said, "Do whatever you want. I have to go out for a bit. If Shen Yue asks, tell her not to worry. I will definitely be on set on time tomorrow."
Aiya, it seems that Siyu probably won't be coming back tonight. Chu Shuangyan immediately understood. He made a gesture of understanding and told Siyu to quickly leave without worry.
Although she felt that the two of them were talking in riddles, when she saw Siyu's unconsciously smile, Chu Shuangyan thought that there should be no problem. Sure enough, her mother was right. All the cold wars that did not have the premise of breaking up were just a show of affection.
Siyu did not know what Chu Shuangyan was thinking. She ran all the way downstairs and out of the hotel. She immediately saw a familiar car parked in front of the door. Fifth Master Lu was leaning against the car door, looking down and slowly turning the prayer beads. The moment she stepped out, Fifth Master Lu seemed to feel something and looked up in her direction.
He was very close, but Siyu's footsteps slowly stopped. She hesitated and did not dare to move forward.
After not seeing each other for a while, Siyu did not know what to say for a moment. However, Fifth Master was not so hesitant. He put away the prayer beads and walked towards her.
The murderous aura surrounding Fifth Master Lu was Siyu's nemesis. It was difficult for her to restrain her physiological instincts, especially after so many days. Siyu's discomfort was even stronger than before. Almost the moment Fifth Master Lu hugged her, she could not help but cough up blood.
Because they were too close, and Siyu was standing there foolishly without any precautions in advance, the mouthful of blood happened to spray on Fifth Master Lu's clothes. The pear-white Tang suit that looked very expensive was dyed red, like plum blossoms blooming on the snow.
Fifth Master Lu: "…"
Siyu: "…"
After a long stalemate, Siyu covered her mouth and suppressed the cough. While coughing, she tried to explain, "You can't blame me. Really, I can't help it when I see you … This is a conditioned reflex …"
Unexpectedly, Fifth Master Lu was not angry. He only sighed softly. Then, he took a clean towel and wiped the remaining blood from Siyu's lips. He fed her a pill to suppress the smell of blood. Then, he slowly said, "When I first saw you, you were also this reckless."
Fifth Master Lu's voice carried a trace of an imperceptible sigh. When he said this, Siyu also remembered that at the dinner party in Huanyi, she ran into Fifth Master Lu in the garden to avoid Xu Qingwan. In her panic, she also dirtied his clothes like now.
The only difference was that although Fifth Master Lu was smiling at that time, anyone with a discerning eye could see his hidden anger. Therefore, Siyu was scared half to death by him at that time. She trembled like a little quail and did not even have the strength to run. But now … although vomiting blood was not a good thing, Siyu was not afraid anymore.
"Cough cough … It was different at that time, cough cough …" Fifth Master Lu's medicine was always precious and very effective. Siyu tried to calm her breathing, then lowered her eyes and whispered, "Just like you were angry at that time. You're not angry now."
"How do you know I'm not angry?" Fifth Master Lu asked. Siyu immediately raised her head in horror. There was a hint of disbelief in her eyes. He thought it was interesting, but on second thought, it might not be good to tease too much, so he slowly added, "You're right."
Not only was he not angry, but in fact, the moment he saw Siyu run out of the hotel, Fifth Master Lu's heart was filled with a sense of comfort that he had never felt before. It made him so satisfied that he almost wanted to sigh.
"But why is your body still not better?" After Fifth Master Lu wiped the blood off Si Yu, he disliked the fact that the clothes she was wearing were too thin. He simply took her clothes away and took a warm coat to drape over her body. He held her hand and led her into the car. The heater was on in the car, and the temperature was very suitable. A blanket was thoughtfully placed on Siyu's seat. Sitting on it was like sinking into a pile of cotton.
Siyu secretly glanced at Fifth Master Lu a few times. After hesitating for a long time, she said softly under his questioning gaze, "It's not just because of the body. It's mainly because of you …"
Perhaps thinking that she had taken the initiative to "reconcile", Siyu Gan opened up and said. She pursed her lips and looked at the thick layer of murderous aura above Fifth Master Lu's head. She said, "Your murderous aura is so heavy. I can't bear it."
This time, Fifth Master Lu was really surprised. The faint happy smile from when he saw Siyu just now disappeared. He stared at Siyu for a long time with an uncertain expression, which made Siyu nervous. Just as she couldn't help but want to ask, Fifth Master Lu instructed the driver, "Go to Xiangji Temple."
Siyu blinked and was a little surprised. "What are we going there for?"
If she remembered correctly, she remembered that Lu Xingzhou told her that Fifth Master Lu was sent to a Buddhist temple to cultivate by his family when he was young, and the place he went to was this Xiangji Temple on the outskirts of Jiangcheng.
Fifth Master Lu's face was gloomy, but his hand clenched Siyu tightly. "Go and ask something."
Perhaps sensing the low pressure in the car, the driver drove the car very fast. It didn't take long for them to reach their destination. Fifth Master Lu got out of the car with Siyu. Siyu looked up at the Buddhist temple in front of her and suddenly saw a monk standing outside the temple door. He seemed to know that someone was coming and was waiting there early. The second he saw Fifth Master Lu, he smiled and put his palms together. "Ha, Junior Brother, long time no see."
Fifth Master Lu's face was cold and he didn't say anything, allowing Siyu to look over there curiously.
The monk didn't care about Fifth Master Lu's cold attitude at all. He walked down the steps by himself and glanced at Siyu a few times. Then, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
He looked at Fifth Master Lu and said, "Previously, when I divined that your red luan star was moving, I thought that the divination was wrong. After all, you looked like someone who was going to be a bachelor for the rest of your life. But now, you've actually found the destined person?"
