Chapter 1010: Chapter 1010: A Family of Three
Xia Xin was in the side hall, waiting so long that he was about to fall asleep, not knowing why Jiangli hadn’t returned yet.
As he was muttering to himself, about to call Jiangli, he heard the sound of the door opening.
He looked up, and his eyes lit up instantly.
Xia Xin immediately stood up energetically, “Ancestor, you finally came back! Why did it take so long?”
Jiangli coughed lightly at his words and said calmly, “Since I was coming back after dinner, it had to be at night, right? Isn’t it called dinner because it’s at night?”
Xia Xin: “…”
These twisted arguments, who did the ancestor learn them from?
Jiangli came over, saw Xia Xin, Fu’er, and Master Wu all present, and asked proactively, “Why haven’t you all gone to rest?”
“Aren’t we waiting for you, Abbot?” Master Wu chuckled. In fact, he was a bit sleepy.
Master Wu had been living a healthy lifestyle for years, accustomed to sleeping early and getting up early. At this time on a usual day, he’d be resting already.
But today, seeing Xia Xin and Fu’er showing no intention of resting, he could only wait along with them.
Jiangli noticed the exhaustion in his eyes and said, “You should go rest first; I have something to discuss with Xia Xin and the others.”
Master Wu glanced at them, understood it wasn’t something he needed to be involved in, and didn’t ask further, getting up to leave.
Jiangli returned to his seat.
Xia Xin asked, “Ancestor, it’s so late, aren’t you going to rest?”
Jiangli asked, “What time is it now?”
Xia Xin glanced at his phone, “It’s almost eleven, pretty late.”
But Jiangli said, “Not too late, just right to check online.”
Xia Xin was surprised, “Ancestor, you want to livestream again?”
Jiangli picked up the teapot on the table and tested the water temperature with his hand.
It seemed it hadn’t been replaced long ago; the tea was still hot.
But to Jiangli, that temperature was nothing.
Jiangli poured himself a cup of tea, holding it like a cup of warm water, slowly took a couple of sips, and then said, “Not late at all, just the right time for an hour-long livestream before going to rest.”
They had just returned not long ago, and if they stopped the livestream now, it would feel like they were being inconsistent.
Xia Xin checked the time and frowned, “That would be too late. How about this, Ancestor, let’s not livestream. Let’s do as before, randomly pick five users from the forum, how about that? It would be faster.”
The livestream did require some casual chat, which took up a lot of time.
Jiangli thought about it and nodded, “That works.”
Xia Xin immediately made the decision, “I’ll go make a post.”
To avoid Jiangli changing his mind, Xia Xin promptly logged into the Xuanmen Association forum account and started posting.
There wasn’t much activity on the Xuanmen forum these days.
Only Jiangli’s post had some heat remaining.
Not just netizens but many members from their sect were watching Jiangli’s post, inadvertently adding to its popularity.
As soon as Xia Xin’s new post was up, many netizens who were on standby immediately followed up to claim spots.
During such times, Fu’er was usually of little help, so he just sat beside them for company.
And just as Xia Xin was posting, the door of Jiaoyang Temple was suddenly knocked on.
Hearing the noise, Xia Xin couldn’t help but look up.
Fu’er had a puzzled look on his face, “Who would be knocking so late at night?”
Jiangli heard this and nonchalantly said, “It’s most likely Qin Yingjun. Fu’er, go open the door.”
Fu’er acknowledged and obediently got up to open the door.
Outside the door was indeed Qin Yingjun.
But it wasn’t just Qin Yingjun.
There were also Ou Lan and Qin Yongfu.
The whole family was there, complete and intact.
