Chapter 991: Chapter 991: The Abbot Arrives
Jiangli was ordering food with Xia Xin, deciding what to have for lunch.
Then they heard a series of urgent knocks on the door, as if the person knocking was about to break it down.
Jiangli heard the commotion and said lazily, “Looks like lunch is going to be late today.”
Xia Xin hadn’t reacted yet.
Jiangli then instructed, “Go open the door and bring her in.”
“The Ancestor already knows who it is?” Xia Xin asked in confusion.
Jiangli neither confirmed nor denied.
Xia Xin scratched his head in bewilderment, went out to open the door, and saw Su Lifan standing there, panting heavily and drenched in sweat.
Xia Xin stopped, “Why have you come here?”
“Is the Abbot here? Is the Abbot here?!”
Seeing him, Su Lifan grabbed his hand desperately, shaking it intensely.
Xia Xin was almost dizzy from her shaking, “He is, he is, he is!”
He hurriedly took Su Lifan’s hand down and stepped aside.
“The Abbot is in the side hall, please come in first.”
Upon hearing this, Su Lifan crossed the threshold and quickly ran towards the side hall.
“Abbot, Abbot, save me, Abbot…”
Su Lifan ran into the side hall in one breath, not noticing the threshold, and almost stumbled face-first.
Fortunately, Xia Xin was right behind her, saw she was unsteady, took a deep breath, reached out, and grabbed Su Lifan’s arm, preventing her from a close encounter with Mother Earth.
He finally helped Su Lifan stabilize herself.
Before Xia Xin could speak, Su Lifan ran into the side hall.
She rushed straight to Jiangli and knelt down with a thud.
Jiangli raised an eyebrow, “What are you doing?”
“Please, Abbot, save my son. It was all my fault back then. If there’s blame, blame me, but please save my son first…” Su Lifan sobbed, alternately sniffling and crying, while bowing, “As long as you can save my son, Guo Xuwen’s life, I am willing to die right now, I beg you, Abbot—”
Jiangli looked at her, his expression a bit indifferent, closed the game on his phone, stood up, and said, “Where is Guo Xuwen now?”
Su Lifan thought Jiangli had changed his mind, and was about to smile through her tears.
Jiangli added, “In this matter, only he can save himself. He must repent himself, no one else can do it.”
Su Lifan felt a sinking feeling inside, but no matter what, getting Jiangli to go to the hospital was a good thing.
Su Lifan gritted her teeth and nodded, “Xuwen is in the hospital right now. As long as you’re willing to go save him, we’ll say anything!”
Upon hearing this, Jiangli walked out, “Let’s go.”
Su Lifan pushed herself up from the ground awkwardly and followed behind Jiangli with a look of joy.
Jiangli, while walking out, said, “Xia Xin, Master Wu, you two follow along.”
Hearing this, Xia Xin and Master Wu exchanged glances and hurried to follow.
Only Fu’er was left behind as the elder.
Fu’er was already used to such things, not caring much, sat down serenely by himself, waiting for Jiangli and the others to return.
The group left Jiaoyang Temple, got into a car, and headed to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, Guo Xuwen, due to intense pain, was even more lucid, and at this moment, even fainting would be a luxury to him.
He could even clearly feel that there was someone lying beside him, seemingly staring at him with hatred.
But when he looked over, there was no one there.
Yet he knew deep inside that the person must have returned…
Guo Xuwen’s eyes were filled with fear and suffering.
Guo Ji didn’t know how to alleviate Guo Xuwen’s pain, when he heard Su Lifan’s voice, “They’re here, the Abbot is here!”
