Then let's try now?
A cold female voice came from behind; Liu Shuang also walked in carrying a large basin, and seeing the situation, Xu Jie gave an embarrassed smile.
"Hehe, I was just joking, but speaking of which, do you know why Èr Zhǎnglǎo is crying like this?"
"Eighty percent it's the Buddhist nun, what else could it be?"
"Sigh, you say Elder Shi Song also, who he takes a liking to is none of anyone's business, but he insists on taking a liking to a Buddhist nun, and an old naggy one at that."
"Several people were busy in the kitchen while chatting; now Xu Jie and the others are Ye Zhangqing's dedicated kitchen helpers, tasked with washing vegetables, cutting meat, and so on."
"The crying in the rear courtyard gradually weakened; under the comfort of Hong Zun and a few others, Shi Song finally eased a bit."
"But his eyes were still red, showing a look of having nothing left to live for."
"He tightly gripped Hong Zun's hand and spoke with unwavering determination."
"Junior brother, I can't lose the Buddhist nun; I really can't live without her."
"I know, I know, let me think........."
"Hong Zun was also helpless; she's a person of the Fomen, what can you do about it?"
"Meanwhile, Qing Shi beside him spoke softly."
"Since it's because of the Fomen's precepts, let the Buddhist nun return to secular life; the Fomen isn't without such a notion."
"As soon as those words were spoken, everyone's gazes instantly turned; seeing this, Qing Shi felt a bit guilty."
"What kind of look is that?"
"She merely refused the senior brother, and you want to make her return to secular life? Are you even human?"
"Bai Hua Xianzi said disdainfully."
"I......... this..........."
"Who says no? Since it's the Fomen's precepts, just return to secular life."
"But who knew that in the next second Shi Song spoke, his eyes flashing with an indescribable light."
"You're serious, senior brother?"
"Hong Zun stared blankly at Shi Song; at this moment he felt that the senior brother seemed to have changed, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly how."
"Upon hearing this, Shi Song spoke with unwavering firmness."
"Without a doubt, the Buddhist nun can only be mine; since the Fomen won't agree, I'll make her return to secular life."
"Yandere........... Hong Zun finally realized, damn this is the state of a yandere."
"But damn, I've only heard of women being yandere; how can you, an old geezer, also become yandere?"
"He opened his mouth and weakly said."
"This............ probably a bit tricky to handle."
"Whether it's easy or not, I'll do it; I absolutely cannot lose the Buddhist nun, the Buddhist nun can only be mine—either she obediently returns to secular life, or I'll kill her..............."
"Having said that, Shi Song paused, then his eyes grew even more resolute."
"Then I'll kill myself."
"Alright, confirmed, really a yandere."
"Looking at Shi Song's determined eyes, Hong Zun knew that saying anything now would be useless."
"Damn, when pursuing a woman, you either succeed or not; how did you end up making her a yandere here?"
"Even more absurd, the Buddhist nun merely refused, and you want to kill her?"
