Chapter 2450: Chapter 2451: A Trip to Jiming Temple
The next day, the two woke up in bed after 10 AM.
Yan Ci got up first to wash up, while Lin Yi stayed in bed and called Qiu Yuluo.
"How’s it going? Did you find out anything about that house?"
"Just found a little bit." Qiu Yuluo said:
"The owner of the house is named Zhang Dadong, that’s all I can see for now, I’m abroad, I’ll be back in Yanjing this afternoon and continue the investigation for you."
"Zhang Dadong?" Lin Yi muttered.
"I checked the household registration in Yuanbao Town, and couldn’t find this person."
"That’s a bit strange, not being from Yuanbao Town but buying a house there."
"Indeed, that’s what I find odd," Qiu Yuluo said:
"That place has no investment value, it’s unlikely for someone to buy a house there remotely."
"You focus on your own stuff first, we can look into this when there’s time."
"I wish I could, Ning Che keeps pushing me to investigate this, I really want to whack her with a mallet."
"Haha... don’t bother with her, just go at your own pace."
"Then I won’t bother with her," said Qiu Yuluo. "We’ll talk when I get back this afternoon."
"Okay."
After a brief chat, Lin Yi hung up the phone.
If the previous days were about racing against time, now, he was not in a hurry.
Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth - all five were dead, the murderer’s plan was completed, and barring any surprises, no further incidents would occur.
Dragging this case out a few more days wouldn’t matter much.
"Finished with the call?"
Yan Ci walked out of the bathroom with a face mask on.
"Do we have any plans today?"
Lin Yi shrugged, "None, how about you, need to go to the site?"
"I came here mainly to sort out the venue issues, and now there’s no problem, so I’m free." Yan Ci smiled at Lin Yi:
"If you’re free, shall we go out for a stroll, just to clear our minds?"
"Sure, where do you want to go?"
"emm..."
Yan Ci thought for a bit, "Let’s visit Jiming Temple and then head to Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River in the evening, we can also check on the progress of the film crew."
"I’ll follow President Yan’s plan."
Yan Ci climbed onto the bed, hooking Lin Yi’s chin, "That’s right, listen to your sister, I’ll take good care of you when we’re back tonight."
Lin Yi playfully slapped Yan Ci’s butt and asked:
"Are you sure?"
"Stop it."
With a coquettish complaint, Yan Ci got off the bed, "Come on, get up, it’s almost noon."
Lin Yi nodded and then got out of bed to wash up.
Once both were ready, they took a taxi to Jiming Temple.
Since it wasn’t a holiday, the crowd at Jiming Temple was not particularly large.
"Not particularly large" merely meant it wasn’t overcrowded.
As a nationally renowned tourist spot, Jiming Temple was always a must-visit for tourists coming to Jinling.
Among the 480 temples of the Southern Dynasties, many towers lay amidst the rain.
Jiming Temple was the foremost among these 480 temples.
This also underscored its fame from another angle.
After getting off the taxi, they leisurely walked toward Jiming Temple.
Even from a distance, the smell of incense was discernible.
"Feeling unwell?" Yan Ci, holding Lin Yi’s arm, looked at him and asked, "Why are you fidgeting all the time?"
"Just relaxing." Lin Yi said:
"Since last October, I’ve been busy up until now, never really had a proper chance to relax. Now that we’re here today, we can’t miss the opportunity."
"Do you want to find a place where I can give you a massage?"
"No need to make a fuss, I just want to stretch out my limbs a bit." Lin Yi took Yan Ci’s hand, and they headed towards Jiming Temple.
At the entrance, they bought tickets, which included incense sticks.
Not far away, there was a grand and huge incense burner, filled with incense sticks.
Following the local custom, they devoutly offered incense sticks and then followed the crowd towards the interior of Jiming Temple.
Cherry blossoms bloomed one after another along the road, walking among them, the fatigue in their bodies also drifted away with the scent of incense.
"What are you thinking about? You haven’t said a word?" Yan Ci asked with a smile.
"Thinking about when to retire."
"You are still young, yet already thinking about retirement."
"It’s mainly because I’m busy every day, wondering when it will ever end," Lin Yi said with a smile:
"In a few years, I plan to buy some land in the countryside, build a villa, set up a small vegetable garden and a fish pond, just like what we had in Happiness Village before."
"I remember back then, it seemed like you were always complaining about Happiness Village."
"Times have changed," Lin Yi responded with a smile.
"Is this..."
Yan Ci hesitated, looking at Lin Yi with sympathy, "Are you too tired?"
She had felt this way before too; under great pressure, a person is like a tightly wound spring, ready to snap at any moment.
And the pressure she felt was nothing compared to Lin Yi’s.
If he weren’t too tired, someone like him wouldn’t say such things.
"If you really move back to the countryside to buy land and build a house, I’ll go with you and live next door to your house," Yan Ci said:
"We could conduct our affairs overtly while making subtle plans."
"Haha..."
Lin Yi burst into laughter, "You’ve thought it through very well."
"Let’s not think about these matters today," Yan Ci said:
"We’ve made enough money, the choice is in our hands, we can retire whenever we want."
"You’re right." Lin Yi embraced Yan Ci’s plump waist, leisurely walking further inside.
Soon, they reached the Grand Hall of Jiming Temple.
Both of them bought three sticks of incense each, knelt in front of the Buddha statues, and made a devout wish.
For Lin Yi, his current wish is for his two unborn children to be healthy and strong.
Beyond that, he desires nothing else.
"Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go."
After offering incense, Yan Ci excitedly pulled Lin Yi outside.
"What’s up?"
"They say Jiming Temple is especially accurate in telling marital fortunes, let’s check it out."
"Okay, I’ll listen to you." free𝑤ebnovel.com
In places like this, men generally focus on sightseeing, while women pay attention to other aspects of consumption.
Hence, it’s not an exaggeration to say that a man’s spending power is lower than that of a dog.
Guided by Yan Ci, they went to a nearby small wooden hut, which also had an ancient charm and was bustling with incense activity.
Inside, many people were lined up, all there to have their marital fortunes told.
"Master, how much for a reading?"
"180." The old monk, exuding an aura of immortality, responded while also observing Lin Yi and Yan Ci, trying to discern something about them.
Otherwise, he can’t trick people.
Lin Yi, without hesitation, scanned 180 yuan with his phone.
But while making the payment by scanning the code, the old monk noticed Lin Yi’s WeChat interface and looked amused.
"Master, I want to have my marital fortune read," Yan Ci said.
The old monk nodded, "Reading marital fortunes is no problem, but before that, I have a few words I’d like to say to this young man."
