When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 821: Everything Depends on Fate
On the way up the mountain, Adrian Lancaster was truly worried, his brows furrowed into a river shape, feeling sadness he hadn’t experienced in a long time.
His mood was really at rock bottom.
His driving skills were excellent, and despite the rough mountain road, it took only about ten minutes uphill before the car finally stopped in front of a temple.
The luxurious, shiny car was somewhat out of place in this setting.
After getting out, Adrian Lancaster closed the car door, took a look around, and then walked directly inside.
A Taoist priest in plain clothes happened to come out, holding a fly whisk in his hand, his facial wrinkles more pronounced, and the two met face to face.
"Mr. Lancaster?" The Taoist priest recognized him, surprised by his visit, especially since he came alone, without any entourage.
"Hello, Master." Adrian Lancaster showed no airs, dressed in his sharp suit, respectfully bowing, "I’ve come today to see you, without an appointment, a bit presumptuous, please pardon me." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Such humility and courtesy, his personal charm fully displayed.
Though secluded in the mountains, the Taoist priest watched the news. Everything had been going well for the Lancaster Family recently, and they seemed very happy, so he couldn’t guess the purpose of Adrian Lancaster’s trip up the mountain.
"Please, come in." The Taoist priest welcomed him and led him to the backyard.
The mountain scenery was elegant and tranquil, filled with the sound of wind rustling the leaves.
The Taoist priest personally brewed a pot of fine tea and hosted him, "Mr. Lancaster, please sit, feel free to tell me what brings you here."
"I would like you to help me figure out if my wife’s biological parents are still alive? If they are, where are they? Can you provide any clues for my search?" Adrian Lancaster sat on a stone bench, not at all impatient, his tone very calm.
The Taoist priest handed him a cup of tea, knowing who his wife was, as he had done their marriage fortunes before, so he was relatively familiar with Faye Turner’s situation.
"They are still alive." The Taoist priest did not leave him in suspense, "They live in the southeast, she is the daughter of a wealthy family, Mrs. Lancaster is very blessed, her fortune doubled after she married you."
Hearing this, he seemed to see hope, and urgently asked, "Can you...calculate anything else?"
The Taoist priest shook his head, "After all, I’m not a deity, I don’t know her biological parents’ names, only from her appearance can I tell she’s someone blessed, her original family wouldn’t be lacking."
A mountain breeze blew past, Adrian Lancaster’s emotions stirred, with both joy and worry, he asked, "Then... is there a chance of reunion in this life?"
This was very important.
"Yes." The Taoist priest answered directly without hesitation, "When the time comes, you will naturally meet."
Hearing this, Adrian Lancaster felt a burst of happiness inside.
He raised his teacup, nodded again to express his gratitude, then looked around and asked, "Is there anything here that needs renovation? I am willing to cover this portion of the costs on behalf of the company."
"Thank you for your kindness, but there is no need for now."
After chatting with the Taoist priest for a while, learning some history about the temple, and drinking tea, Adrian Lancaster took his leave.
Perhaps because of the temple’s different aura, sitting there for a while, when Adrian Lancaster drove down the mountain, his mood had significantly improved compared to when he was going up.
Perhaps everything hinges on fate? You can’t force it.
So, after descending the mountain, while driving, he dialed his subordinate’s number, quietly saying, "Put this on hold for now, don’t search anymore."
The other person was stunned for a moment, "Okay, boss." Even though he didn’t know what had happened, he followed the arrangement.
After ending the call, Adrian Lancaster then dialed Chloe Gable’s number, now speaking much more softly, "Mom, Milo’s done with exams, how about a family dinner tonight? Should we eat out or at our place?"
"Let’s go to your place." Chloe Gable responded cheerfully, "It’s a good opportunity to see Joy, and eating out isn’t hygienic."
"Okay, shall I come pick you up now?" he asked happily.
"Now?"
"Whenever, I have time anyway, if you prefer later it’s fine too." Adrian Lancaster’s mood suddenly improved greatly, "I can come pick you up anytime."
