Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 75.2: The Heart Unchanged; All Things Solvable

Chapter 75.2: The Heart Unchanged; All Things Solvable

Jing Wan’s mouth slightly twitched, not knowing what to say. “What about big sister Jia?”
“Miss Sun’s injuries were the lightest…..”
Jing Wan slightly relaxed a breath. At last, it wasn’t all bad news.
Gong mama sighed in her heart, “…but also the most serious.”
Before Jing Wan’s breath could completely relaxed, it stuffed back up again, making even her chest ache. She quickly asked, “What happened?”
“Miss Sun injured her face, cutting from here to here.” Gong mama gestured on her own face, “Furthermore, it’s very deep, and very difficult to recover back to normal.”
Jing Wan instantly blanked. Her entire body felt like she’d gotten struck by lightning. If she’d injured her own face, she most likely wouldn’t have cared very much. But these natively born and bred young ladies were different. That face really can be said to be more important than their lives. Isn’t that the most severe? Ruining the face was equivalent to losing more than half their life. If she can’t endure it, she might even be unable to overcome it.
“Wan Wan…..”
Luo Old Madam’s voice let Jing Wan immediately return to her sense, seeing that Luo Old Madam seemingly aged quite a bit overnight. Her complexion was haggard, and her hair slightly messy. Hearing Gong mama say it was one thing, but actually seeing for herself was another thing. In that moment, she felt extremely heartbroken, and quickly went forward. “Grandmother……”
Because Luo Old Madam was worried that she might have injuries on her body, she didn’t dare to hug her. “Quickly tell grandmother, where all are you hurt? Why didn’t you directly go lie down, instead coming here to see grandmother?”
“Grandmother, it’s all just some minor scratches, I didn’t injure any bones, nor injure any internal organs. Don’t worry, I really am fine.”
“Falling down from that high, how can you be fine? These clothes are all torn, yet still dare to say you’re fine? Jing Bo, quick, quickly go invite Grandmaster Liao Chen, invite him to properly give your little sister a checkup.” Luo Old Madam scolded while carefully touching Jing Wan’s neck.
Having this place repeatedly get noticed, it was very difficult to even want to forget how she got this injury. Jing Wan held back the impulse to back away.
“I’ll go right away.” Luo Jing Bo rather believed his younger sister’s words somewhat. After all, it had already been quite some time since the accident. If she really was heavily injured, it would be impossible for her to still be this energetic. Although appearing haggard, that looked more like it was caused by not resting well. Of course, he also noticed the slightly strange expression on Jing Wan’s face.
With a large group of people revolving around Jing Wan, it naturally wasn’t good for Jing Wan to mention wanting to go see the others, especially big sister Jia, perhaps she also didn’t want to see anyone.
Grandmaster Liao Chen was probably free at the moment, so when Luo Jing Bo went to invite, he came over very quickly.
Grandmaster Liao Chen never thought that he would meet the obsession of Jin Qinwang’s heart under these circumstances. He also confirmed that she was indeed his third fated person this year. Although he could no longer tell her fortune for her, that didn’t hinder anything either. After seeing Jing Wan’s appearance clearly, he instead lamented inside. Like Jin Qinwang, she similarly was an outlier. Although some of the specifics he too wasn’t able to see clearly, he more or less could guess one or two things. These two actually ought to be together.
After all, if they can’t be together with one another in this lifetime, then the fates that will be altered won’t just be theirs.
Leaving aside everything else, Jing Wan’s original fate was to live smoothly and peacefully for the first ten or so years, then after marrying will have a major turnaround. Her fate will become rough, with endless twists and turns, and even if she has an unwavering heart, unyielding in the face of a hundred misfortunes, she ultimately won’t be able to escape a violent death. But now, that abysmal course of life has already been cut off, gradually revealing the signs of happiness and longevity. Just, it was still hazy, meaning that it was still possible for certain changes to occur. Probably because Jin Qinwang had forcibly altered her fate, so naturally, everything all walked towards uncertainty.
Grandmaster Liao Chen have always believed for things to follow the natural course, everything was determined by the heavens. However, inevitably there will be those few that made one unbearable.
Jing Wan’s sights were straight, clear and harmonious, and her heart harbored benevolence. Someone like this should not suffer that many hardships.
Jin Qinwang insisted on altering her fate, aside from because of his obsession towards her, how is it also not because of the ‘debt’ he owed her from his previous life, the one that changed his fate and gave him ‘a new lease on life’.
How was this also not destiny!?
Jing Wan very much had a favorable impression of Grandmaster Liao Chen. This was a ‘not only in name but also in reality’ enlightened senior monk, the heart and mouth as one[1], with kind brows and pleasant eyes. “Greetings Grandmaster.”
“Amitabha Buddha.” Grandmaster Liao Chan carried a faint smile on his face, “Miss Luo need not be this courteous.”
Jing Wan lightly raised raised her eyebrows and smiled, “Why is Grandmaster not calling me ‘miss benefactor’[2], the others of White Dragon Temple all address as such?”
“Since there are that many people that address as such, then one more wouldn’t be much, and one less wouldn’t be of consequence either.”
He was neither stiff, nor dogmatic. At the same time while preserving his temperament as a monk, he also made one feel like he was one’s own elder. “Very true. —–then this one here will have to trouble Grandmaster.”
“This can’t be counted as troubling. Miss had met with mishap at White Dragon Temple. This can also be considered this humble monks oversight.”
“Something like natural disaster, who can predict accurately anyways? Grandmaster need not have the blame pushed onto oneself.” Jing Wan’s tone was a bit faint. They’ve never done anything to offend the heavens, yet ended up as such. The heavens were indeed still unjust.
While Grandmaster Liao Chen was checking Jing Wan’s pulse, he said, “The old man lost his horse, but how is one to know that is not a blessing[3].”
Jing Wan blanked. She wasn’t sure whether or not Grandmaster Liao Chen had seen through her thoughts and was intentionally consoling her. But Grandmaster Liao Chen’s prestigious reputation, on the way here, she had heard quite a lot about. “Grandmaster is right, it’s this one that has thought wrong.”
Grandmaster Liao Chen nodded, “Miss Luo’s body is without a problem, it’ll be fine after applying some abrasion medicine. There’s also no need to drink medicine.”
“Many thanks Grandmaster. With Grandmaster’s words, grandmother should also be relieved.” Jing Wan originally wanted to ask about Li Hong Yuan’s matter. Presumably, Grandmaster Liao Chen should know about his assassination attempt. However, she instead swallowed back her words. It’s not that she was worried about having Gong mama and the servants present; that kind of thing was indeed not something she could ask about.
“Miss Luo can relax, all is fine. As long as Miss can maintain one’s true self from beginning to end, all things can be easily solved.”
The good feeling Grandmaster gave others was indeed not false, but these words, why were they somewhat difficult to understand? The meaning on the surface seemingly was very obvious, but why did it feel like there was still a deeper meaning? More importantly, Grandmaster Liao Chen seemed to be able to see through one’s heart. Whatever she thought of, he was always able to give her a vague answer.
Facing Jing Wan’s skeptical gaze, Grandmaster Liao Chen smiled and didn’t say a word. “Miss Luo still needs more rest, this humble monk will go on ahead.”
Jing Wan quickly got up to send him off. Luo Old Madam and the others were worried about disturbing Grandmaster Liao Chen, so they had all waited in the outer room. When he came out, Luo Old Madam quickly got up to inquire, despite Jing Wan having already explained previously. Her luck was just good, and the place where she’d fallen was special. That’s how she’d narrowly and fortunately avoided disaster.
After confirming that Jing Wan really was fine, Luo Old Madam couldn’t help but thank buddha, “Truly a blessing from buddha.”
[1] Idiom meaning honest and straightforward.
[2] Term used by monks to address a layperson.
[3] Similar in meaning to ‘a blessing in disguise’. This idiom has an anecdote behind it that comes from the ‘Miscellany Writings from the Western Han’. The story is roughly about an old man whose horse keeps running away, but good things keep happening afterwards because of it every time.
