After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 571 - 368: _2
Chapter 571: Chapter 368: _2
His expression was indifferent; in fact, he did not have much affection for this father, but rather, resentment..
He felt heartbroken on behalf of his mother.
Soon, the novice monk came out, with hands clasped together, "Please come inside."
Fu Tingzhou held Tang Xi’s hand as they entered.
Tang Xi was somewhat nervous, as it was her first time meeting Fu Tingzhou’s father.
Fu Tingzhou’s father was just as she had imagined.
Very handsome, perhaps because of becoming a monk, he carried a divine aura about him.
Fu Tingzhou also looked at the man in front of him, his lips curling into a faint cold smile, "Finally seeing me, I thought this time you would hide as before, meeting you is really difficult, once you became a monk, you indeed severed familial ties."
Fu Zongheng looked at them, "Please sit, both of you."
He then turned to Tang Xi, "The two of you being together must have been difficult, I understand Fu Tingzhou’s temperament, you must have made many sacrifices."
"Fu... er..." Tang Xi didn’t know how to address him at first, so she said, "Being together is destiny, it’s a mutual choice between him and me."
While speaking, Fu Tingzhou tightly held Tang Xi’s hand.
Tang Xi also firmly reciprocated the grasp.
Tang Xi continued, "Our wedding is in less than two weeks, I don’t know if you would have time to attend."
Fu Zongheng nodded, "I will be there."
Fu Tingzhou’s expression relaxed a lot.
"I don’t know if grandfather had someone tell you, Fu Yunye has gone abroad and might not return soon, but even if he does, you’ve renounced all desires, you probably will not meet him. But that’s not right; he is your beloved son, unlike me."
Tang Xi slightly turned her glance, she leaned on Fu Tingzhou.
Fu Tingzhou’s lips carried a chill, "Son wants to see his father, we can’t even meet once a year, and father needing to see his son has to wait. Grandfather is getting old, and he won’t come to see you again; if you still care, you should accompany him in his old age."
"I have been detached from the secular world for many years, I owe many people."
"You indeed owe, especially my mother!"
The meeting between Fu Tingzhou and Fu Zongheng was not very joyful, and they did not spend much time together, Fu Zongheng’s expression serene and mild, like a pool of warm water, constantly quoting Buddhist scriptures.
Fu Tingzhou did not stay long and left.
As the two were heading to the entrance, a novice monk stopped them.
He came over and handed over an amulet.
"This is a present for this young lady from my master."
Tang Xi received it and thanked him.
The climb up the mountain was long and exhausting.
But descending was much easier.
As they descended, the sunset was almost visible.
The two walked down slowly, Fu Tingzhou began talking about his issues with Fu Zongheng.
He was born without ever seeing his father, growing up struggling for livelihood with his mother, it was a difficult life at the very bottom of society, not something that could be simply described in a few words. Since childhood, he thought, when he grew up, he must become strong to protect his mother.
In Fu Tingzhou’s memory, his mother was a very strong person.
She never showed weakness in front of him.
But several times, he saw his mother looking at a photograph with sadness.
He recognized the photo, a handsome man, he faintly knew that this man was his father.
Fu Tingzhou began to dislike this person since he was little.
Why should he abandon him and his mother?
Until he was in his teens, when Fu Yuanshan brought him back to the Fu Family.
But only him, not his mother.
He also met the so-called father, the man from the photograph.
But that man had a family, and he had two older brothers.
Their family of four was harmonious and happy.
Himself, seemed like an outsider.
He and his mother, both seemed like a joke.
And later, after his stepmother died, that man began to pursue monastic life, distancing from worldly concerns, actually just evading.
And his own mother...
She still hasn’t awakened.
Tang Xi was his listener, leaning her head on his arm, "Everything has passed, all is gone, and I believe too, that auntie will wake up."
Belatedly, she should be calling Qin Jianlan ’Mom.’
But Tang Xi didn’t correct her tongue just then.
At the foot of the temple’s mountain, there was a noodle house.
When there were many tourists, the business in the noodle house was also very good.
Tang Xi and Fu Tingzhou waited for fifteen minutes before the noodles arrived, the shop owner apologetically said, "Today is the weekend, many people have come to climb the mountain, my apologies for the wait, these two plates of cold dishes are complimentary."
