"What?" Xu Niannian looked at the Buddhist abbot, astonished. Her voice was much higher due to her eagerness.

Even Xiao Bao in her arms was startled awake, lazily lifting his eyelids to gaze at the abbot in front of them.

"Abbot, what do you mean?" Xu Niannian asked worriedly.

Previously, the abbot had said that her life’s fate included a death tribulation, but it could be resolved. If Jin Yu’s situation was worse than hers, wouldn’t it mean an insoluble death tribulation?

Xu Niannian panicked. If she hadn’t been reborn, or if this abbot hadn’t seen through her past, she wouldn’t be so nervous.

After all, the reliability of fortune-telling is questionable.

But it was different for her, she was reborn. If such a fantastical thing could happen, what’s not to believe?

Besides, if the abbot could see through her past at a glance, how could his words be unfounded? They must be true.

The abbot’s face remained kind. Seeing Xu Niannian so anxious, he shook his head and said, "Fate."

Fate?

Xu Niannian, feeling dejected, hugged Xiao Bao: "So, the tribulation on my husband, it’s a death tribulation, right? And it’s unsolvable?"

"Indeed," the abbot said.

Xu Niannian was almost in tears, and the abbot was speaking to her in riddles: "Abbot, is it because of me? If it’s because of me, can you help me, please do not..."

"Benefactor Xu, do not worry," the abbot interrupted Xu Niannian, his gaze turning towards Xiao Bao in her arms.

Xiao Bao still had a lazy expression, but when the abbot met his gaze, there was a ripple in his eyes, unspeaking.

The abbot respectfully bowed to Xiao Bao, nodding, while Xiao Bao’s demeanor remained unchanged.

In her haste, Xu Niannian didn’t notice the abbot was bowing to Xiao Bao and thought the gesture was meant for her.

"Abbot, could you please speak quickly," Xu Niannian was somewhat impatient, trying to make her tone sound as polite as possible.

Talking to these Buddhist people was truly maddening. He’d start with a heavy revelation to distress her, and while she was frantic, he was untroubled, slow and steady, pushing people to the edge of their patience.

Despite this, she knew he meant well, so she couldn’t appear too impolite.

The abbot seemed to finally realize Xu Niannian’s urgency.

He calmly said, "Benefactor Xu, the fate of your life has changed, and I cannot see through it for now. However, your husband faces a tribulation."

"Is it because of me?" Xu Niannian asked.

Hearing the abbot mention the change in her fate, and that Jin Yu had a tribulation, she naturally connected it to herself.

If that was truly the case, she would rather her fate hadn’t changed.

"Not so, Benefactor Xu. The change in your life’s fate is your own fortuity. As for the tribulation on your husband, it is unrelated to you. However, it is not insoluble. In a person’s life, fate is fixed. However, fate can change with different circumstances," the abbot explained.

So after all that, can the tribulation on Jin Yu be resolved or not?

At that moment, the abbot looked at Xiao Bao in Xu Niannian’s arms, a faint smile on his lips: "As for whether it can be resolved, it depends on those who are willing and those who are destined."

Jin Xiaobao: "..."

Willing and destined individuals? Xu Niannian was utterly confounded by the abbot.

However, knowing that there was a chance to resolve Jin Yu’s tribulation, Xu Niannian breathed a sigh of relief but remained anxious.

If the tribulation were on her, perhaps she would not be so concerned, but since it was on Jin Yu, Xu Niannian couldn’t tell herself not to worry.

Especially given the secretive and dangerous nature of his work.

Since returning from Ling Shan Temple, Jin Yu noticed that Xu Niannian had become much quieter. She had finished her confinement, and it was time for him to return to his base.

He didn’t know how many missions he would need to undertake to make up for such a long leave.

"Wife, what’s wrong?" After feeding milk formula to Xiao Bao, Jin Yu placed him on the bed and came around to Xu Niannian’s side.

Xu Niannian was holding a book with a troubled look on her face, not having turned a page for quite some time.

"Ah? What’s wrong?" Xu Niannian was bewildered as she lifted her head.

Jin Yu’s lips quirked and he bent over her, asking earnestly, "Are you troubled about something?"

"No!" Xu Niannian quickly shook her head. She had her concerns but couldn’t tell him.

To share such matters, he surely wouldn’t believe her.

"Did the abbot tell you something about me that day?"

Ever since they had come back from Ling Shan Temple, Jin Yu had sensed that Xu Niannian’s mood was off.

The abbot had only given him a glance and then specifically asked him to wait outside, which clearly meant there were things he shouldn’t hear being discussed with Xu Niannian, right?

Ever since she got back, she had been looking sullen, and it had been two or three days already.

Jin Yu had not intended to ask about it, but seeing her preoccupied over the last few days, he was concerned.

He also didn’t like her always looking so worried. His wife should be smiling joyfully every day.

Just like when she married him, maintaining a beautiful smile.

Xu Niannian didn’t expect Jin Yu to hit the nail on the head, and she blurted out in surprise, "How did you know?"

Upon hearing her, Jin Yu grinned: "It seems it really is about me."

He squatted in front of Xu Niannian, took her hand, and placed it on his face, saying earnestly, "Comrade Xu Niannian, do you know what being a couple means?"

Of course, Xu Niannian knew. She wasn’t a fool.

"Isn’t it just you and me?"
