Chapter 371 Ignorance
When the brother and sister heard this voice, the internal fight between them instantly disappeared. They all looked at Liu Nanshi and said in unison: "No!"
"Qianhan."
Liu Nanshi gently called Gu Qianhan's name: "Are you deliberately distancing yourself from me now? You bought me a bracelet but refused to admit it. Is it because there are outsiders present?"
"Miss Liu, don't be so sentimental. The bracelet is for my sister and has nothing to do with you."
Gu Qianhan said indifferently: "As for outsiders, there are no outsiders here, except you."
Liu Nanshi sighed slightly, with a trace of guilt in her expression: "Qianhan, are you still angry with me? Why do you keep saying angry words? I know that my family rejected our marriage and made you unhappy, but this matter is not something I can decide. I hope you don't hate me for this. Let's just be good friends like before, okay?"
Gu Qianhan subconsciously glanced at Shen Wantang and saw that she had no reaction at all when she heard Liu Nanshi's words. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
The bitterness in his heart gradually spread, and his reply to Liu Nanshi seemed a little careless: "I don't know when I became friends with Miss Liu. I hope Miss Liu can respect herself. If you are too frivolous, people will look down on you."
If it were another woman, she would definitely feel very embarrassed after hearing such words and would not continue to pester the man.
But Liu Nanshi seemed oblivious to Gu Qianhan's indifference and alienation. She even smiled and said, "You are still the same as before. You are harsh in words, but in fact, you have the softest heart. Otherwise, you wouldn't have bought me a Buddhist bead bracelet."
"I told you, this isn't for you."
"Who is this for? Don't tell me you're giving it to An Ning. Didn't you already give her one? You have one left. Are you going to wear it yourself? I remember you never wear anything like this."
Gu Qianhan knew that he could no longer give the bracelet to Shen Wantang at this time, otherwise it would bring her great trouble.
His fingertips gently stroked the round Buddhist beads, on which were engraved Sanskrit words by himself - The light rain asks the evening wind, and the stars think of the shadow of the tangerine.
He stretched out the bracelet slightly and put it on his wrist. When he spoke again, his tone was already full of sarcasm: "Miss Liu seems to like my bracelet very much. How come the Liu family is so poor that they can't even afford a bracelet? You keep asking me for it. Aren't you afraid of damaging your reputation as the most talented woman in Dafeng?"
The smile on Liu Nanshi's face disappeared in an instant. Her eyes turned red and she changed to a wronged tone: "Qianhan, you still blame me, right? In fact, you have given me enough gifts before, and there is no need to give me more. I don't want this bracelet."
Gu Qianhan didn't seem to hear what she said at all. He jumped on the horse with a swift movement and said calmly, "An Ning, the sun is about to set. We should go home."
Gu Qianning watched her second brother trample on Liu Nanshi's face, and her heart was filled with joy. She instantly decided to deliver the gift to the person her second brother wanted to give it to.
She held the Buddhist beads bracelet in her hand and waved it in front of Liu Nanshi: "Hey, Sister Liu, do you like this kind of Buddhist beads bracelet? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I have it here!"
Liu Nanshi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Gu Qianning was still willing to give her face as before.
But the more people gave her face, the more reserved she became: "Why, An Ning, are you going to give me this necklace of yours? No need, actually I don't like this kind of thing either. I was just joking with Qianhan just now, you don't have to take it seriously."
Gu Qianning almost rolled her eyes, but her good upbringing restrained her impulse.
She turned around and asked Gu Qianhan loudly: "Second brother, look at what rubbish you gave me. Miss Liu wouldn't even like it! Can't you give me something that will make me look good?"
Gu Qianhan rode on his horse, his voice was cold and indifferent, his tone was chilly, "You don't know the value of it, and you still dare to make a fuss? This is the top-quality Vajra Bodhi that the King of Tianzhu gave to Master Fangzhang when he followed the previous abbot to Tianzhu to study Buddhism when he was a child. After the previous abbot came back, he made a bracelet with his own hands and passed it on to the current abbot. There are only three bracelets in total, and I snatched two of them. The last one is on the abbot's wrist."
When these words were spoken, Shen Wantang and Gu Qianning were both shocked!
Liu Nanshi, who had just said that he looked down on this kind of thing, was blocked and couldn't say a word.
Gu Qianning cried out in amazement, "What? This is the string of Vajra Bodhi that the abbot always carries with him?! Isn't this the treasure of Fazhen Temple? How did you steal it?! This, this, this... is this okay? Didn't the abbot break your legs?"
Gu Qianhan: "The abbot's Qinggong is not as good as mine, he can't run faster than me."
Gu Qianning: “…”
She couldn't even imagine the sight of the fifty-year-old abbot chasing Gu Qianhan around the temple!
No wonder when she was listening to the sutra this afternoon, she always felt that the abbot's voice was not as hypnotic as the one in the morning. Oh, no, it was not as loud as the bell in the morning.
Gu Qianning looked at the bracelet again. The afterglow of the setting sun shone down, and the Bodhi tree emitted a thick and heavy luster. When Gu Qianhan held it in her hand just now, she felt that this bracelet was different from the ones she had seen before. Now, after a closer look, she realized that these Bodhi trees were completely different from those sold in Fazhen Temple.
Vajra Bodhi is named for its hard texture like diamond. It symbolizes wisdom and indestructible power. It is the most precious treasure of Buddhism and a treasure that can calm people’s mind.
For some reason, Gu Qianning felt that her second brother had a really good eye for picking things. This Bodhi bracelet was very suitable for the calm and tenacious Shen Wantang.
She took Shen Wantang's hand and solemnly put it on her wrist: "Atang, this is for you."
Shen Wantang was shocked and wanted to take off the bracelet immediately. She refused, "How can this be possible? This is too expensive. I can't take it!"
Gu Qianning held her hand and smiled brightly at her: "I noticed that you were very serious when listening to the sutras. It's obvious that your understanding of Buddhism is much better than mine. It would be a waste of this bracelet if I gave it to you. It would be a waste of it if I gave it to me!"
Shen Wantang still wanted to refuse: "But..."
Gu Qianning interrupted her refusal: "No buts, I said I'll give it to you, so I'll give it to you! It's just a bodhi bracelet, are you going to refuse me? Are you like Miss Liu, looking down on my things? I'll be sad!"
Now Shen Wantang had to accept it even if she didn't want to.
She stretched out her hand and pinched Gu Qianning's face, smiling and saying, "Anyone who doesn't like a treasure like this has no taste. I'm afraid that if I snatch your treasure, you'll be in so much pain that you won't be able to sleep in bed at night!"
