Chapter 132 Prayer
"I don't even remember what I gave you, why should I accept it?" Huo Beixi stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of her nose, "Besides, we are different from them."
Hua Xiali looked up at him curiously, "Why are we different from them?"
"Because I love you." Huo Beixi said seriously, "This is what makes us different from them."
Blind dates are based on conditions. If the conditions are not suitable, people will not meet each other. Even if some feelings can be developed through spending some time together, it is not worth giving up anything.
Moreover, they can clearly remember every expense during the relationship, which shows that their purpose was very clear from the beginning, which was not to let themselves suffer losses. However, in a relationship, you cannot care about so many things, nor can you care about who pays more and who pays less. What you can care about are those who have not invested much true love.
But we can't say that such people are bad. After all, they are just trying to protect themselves from being taken advantage of.
Hua Xiali looked at Huo Beixi embarrassedly. He was not ashamed to say such things in public.
"Later, Yu Qingxin's parents were still actively arranging blind dates for him, but he always disagreed and had no interest. Plus, he was afraid, so it has been delayed until now," said Huo Beixi.
"If destiny has not arrived, there is no point in being anxious. If destiny has arrived, there is no need to be anxious at all." Many parents don't know that their children are unwilling to go on blind dates because they are annoyed by their urging.
There is no need to rush about marriage, just wait. When destiny is right, you will naturally get married. If destiny is not right, you will never get married no matter how many people you meet.
When they reached the halfway point of the mountain, they saw a temple. Many people were praying in the temple. Hua Xiali then realized that there was such a lively place on this mountain.
"Beixi, you are here." At this time, several people came out of the temple, both men and women, including two couples and two children.
Yan Yisheng was there too.
Huo Beixi introduced them and they greeted each other. Then the two of them entered the temple. There were many incense sticks in the incense burner inside, and the scent of sandalwood was very strong. Hua Xiali didn't like this scent because they would also light this incense when someone died here. When she smelled this scent, she would think of the scene after her parents died in her previous life.
There are not many people coming to the mountain to burn incense and pray on weekends, because it is a rare day off and most people still want to have a good rest at home. It is only during the Chinese New Year that there are many people, and it is so crowded that it is difficult to walk.
Hua Xiali has never been to this mountain, but she has been to the mountain near her grandmother's home before. There is also a temple on that mountain, and many people go up the mountain to burn incense and pray during the New Year.
Hua Xiali doesn't need to ask for marriage and wealth, because she already has them all. Her only wish now is that everyone can be safe and healthy.
After praying, the two came out of the temple and met up with Huo Beixi's friends. Then they continued to walk up and came to a large platform. Yu Qingxin and Yan Yishen took out cloth from their backpacks and spread it on the platform. They also took out the food and drinks that they had prepared in advance and placed them in the middle of the cloth. Everyone sat down on the side, making it look like a spring or autumn outing.
"Huo Beixi, I've seen that you like her for a long time. Now you finally have a girlfriend, congratulations!" Yan Yisheng said with a smile. Hua Xiali was a little surprised. Did Huo Beixi like her for a long time? Why didn't she see it?
And if Huo Beixi had liked her for a long time, why did he watch her get engaged to Wang Liang and then marry Wang Liang in his previous life? She married Wang Liang at the end of the year in her previous life, which means Huo Beixi had countless opportunities to stop her, but he didn't. So Huo Beixi shouldn't have liked her for a long time, right?
But it was because she borrowed money from him in this life and they had contact, so he started to like her?
After all, no man would watch the person he loves marry someone else, right? No matter what, at least he should ask for an answer so that he can give up!
No matter when Huo Beixi started to like her, he is now her boyfriend, and this is a fact that no one can change.
Huo Beixi handed the peeled apple to Hua Xiali. Hua Xiali took it and started eating it bite by bite. The two children were running around around everyone, making it very lively.
After chatting for a while, Hua Xiali had a basic understanding of Huo Beixi's friends. Yu Qingxin and Yan Yishen were the friends Huo Beixi had known the longest, and the two men in their thirties with children worked in offices, and their wives came here simply to have some fun.
The rest were all friends that Huo Beixi met for various reasons. They all lived nearby, so they could get together. As for Huo Beixi's college classmates, there was not a single one here.
It has been so many years since we graduated from college. Our homes are far away, and we are working in different places, so it is really difficult to keep in touch. Gradually, the little friendship we had with our classmates has completely disappeared.
In her previous life, when her children graduated from college, transportation and communications were so developed. However, after graduation, they lost contact with their classmates and roommates. What's more, now that contact is not so convenient, a lifetime can pass in a blink of an eye. This is vividly demonstrated in this era.
After sitting on the mountain for a while and eating and drinking everything they brought, everyone got up and went down the mountain. Everyone walked in front, with Huo Beixi and Hua Xiali walking at the end.
After coming down from the mountain, everyone took a bus and headed straight to the restaurant in the city center. The private rooms had been arranged in advance, and the food started to be served as soon as they arrived.
Dishes were served on the table one by one. The two children each took a seat, raised their heads high, and looked at the delicious food on the table. However, no one reached out for the chopsticks directly. Instead, they turned their heads to look at their parents. Without their parents' consent, they did not dare to pick up the chopsticks.
"Everyone, please eat. After eating, go back early and rest early." Everyone is young and there are no elders here. There is no need to worry about table etiquette. Just enjoy your meal.
As soon as Huo Beixi finished speaking, the two children quickly picked up the food with chopsticks and started eating. The adults didn't need to worry about them at all. When others saw the children, they would definitely think of their own children, but Hua Xiali did not think of his two children from his previous life.
She was heartbroken by her two children, so how could she think of them all the time?
In this life, she did not marry Wang Liang, and she would not have those two children. She would not feel any regrets or miss them. She had never treated them badly in her previous life. She had suffered a lot to raise and cultivate them. She just fulfilled her responsibilities and obligations, and she owed them nothing.
