Chapter 559: Chapter 559: This Marriage Really Shouldn’t Happen

"Exactly, exactly, our abbot is still young, not yet of legal age for marriage, so he can’t get married!" Xia Xin quickly chimed in.

Fu Lang opened his mouth as if to say, even after marriage he would still be free.

However, he quickly realized what Fu Shiyan meant.

Marrying into a family like the Fu Family, one’s behavior and actions would naturally not be as free as before.

Whether Jiangli would still be able to be a Metaphysics Master in the future was another matter.

Clearly, Fu Shiyan was trying to accommodate Jiangli as much as possible.

Fu Lang felt a sense of emotion in his heart, never having expected Shiyan to change like this.

With this in mind, he nodded, "Indeed, since he is not of legal age for marriage and still so young, then you two should just date for another two years. Being young is the perfect time to fully enjoy dating."

Fu Shiyan nodded and replied with a yes.

This matter was thus considered settled.

Jiangli and Xia Xin secretly let out a sigh of relief in their hearts.

This dinner didn’t start until eight o’clock in the evening, and after eating, drinking, and chatting, they hadn’t dispersed by ten.

But at ten o’clock, many white-collar workers who were working overtime had just gotten off work.

Including a girl who went to Jiaoyang Temple to offer incense this morning.

Her name was Cai Wenxin.

Since morning, after receiving those equivocal words from Jiangli, she had been somewhat distracted.

The enormous workload of the day had left her feeling even more fatigued.

Finnaly off work, she rubbed her neck and, as usual, decided to take the shortcut home.

Her home was in a residential area not far from the company. Walking down the rarely used back road behind the company for about two hundred meters would take her home.

Cai Wenxin had habitually taken this route, but...

Just as she arrived at the entrance of the alley behind the company, she suddenly stopped. Jiangli’s words inexplicably echoed in her mind.

Don’t walk on dark roads...

Looking ahead at the pitch-black path, Cai Wenxin felt a bit scared.

This path was mostly used by janitorial staff for trash disposal, a little-traveled road.

At night, only the entrance of the alley behind the company was lit by a dim, narrow-coverage street lamp.

A turn to the side and she would be out of the street light’s range, left with nothing but darkness.

Cai Wenxin would always carry a small flashlight when walking this path at night.

This time was no exception...

But this time, looking at the small flashlight in her hand and then at the darkness ahead, which looked like the gaping maw of a demon, made her feel suddenly panicky.

Her forehead throbbed fiercely, and the next second, she quickly turned around and walked briskly to the well-lit main road in front of the company.

Standing on the brightly lit main road, her heart continued to pound.

Going around from the front would take twice the time.

Having worked overtime to this point, Cai Wenxin was already exhausted enough.

On any other day, she would never take the main road at the front.

But she really didn’t have the courage today.

She felt that she had been scared by Jiangli’s words and could only take the main road home.

About fifteen minutes later, Cai Wenxin returned home timidly.

After pushing open the door and hearing it close behind her, she finally let out a sigh of relief.

Cai Wenxin set down her handbag, took a breath, poured a glass of water, and gulped down a couple of sips to calm herself.

She thought, it wasn’t that scary, was it?

The abbot had told her there might be danger, but it seemed like nothing had happened...

Cai Wenxin felt she might have been overthinking. To relax, she went to take a shower, planning to rest afterward.

Half an hour later, she came out of the bathroom only to hear her mobile phone ringing incessantly.

Cai Wenxin, who was drying her hair, heard the ringtone, put down her towel, and went over.

It was a call from a colleague.

When she left work, there were still some final tasks to complete. A male colleague, worried about her safety because it was getting late, had told her to go home first while he stayed to finish up.
