Chapter 586 You Are All Destined to Be Here “Are you here to take shelter from the rain?” Just as Charlotte was surprised, a young novice monk approached, his round eyes curiously examining them. Charlotte was taken aback to see a young child with a shaven head who earnestly greeted them, looking incredibly cute. She cleared her throat. “We got lost on the mountain in the sudden rain and ended up at your temple. If we have disturbed you, we apologize.” “No worries.” The young novice monk nodded. “Our master often reminds us that people on the mountain can easily get lost and cold during storms. He specifically instructed me to keep the door open for everyone.” So, the door was intentionally left unlocked? Charlotte was somewhat surprised. Seeing them soaked in wet clothes, the young novice monk said gently, “We have clean clothes you can borrow. Don’t worry, they’ve all been washed.” Seeing him emphasize that the clothes were clean in this situation, Charlotte found it increasingly amusing and endearing. She bent down and warmly thanked the young novice monk, “Thank you.” The young novice monk had never seen such a beautiful and gentle lady before, and his little face blushed slightly. He shook his head and led the two of them to a room in the western courtyard. He even enthusiastically found two sets of monk robes for them. “Thank you,” said Charlotte politely, unable to resist patting his head. The young novice monk stared at her in shock, unable to believe his eyes. Charlotte thought she had offended him and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist…” Before she could finish her sentence, the young novice monk blushed and hurriedly ran away. Enter title… Charlotte couldn’t help but burst into laughter, leaning into the embrace of Joe. Watching the exceptionally happy Charlotte, Joe secretly decided to donate more money to this temple.
After changing into clean clothes, the two of them walked through the corridor and arrived at the main hall. Inside the main hall was a solemn and majestic statue of Bodhisattva. An old monk was striking a wooden fish while the young novice monk knelt obediently on the side, silently reciting scriptures. Charlotte and Joe didn’t approach until after the wooden fish sound had stopped. They walked quickly to the old monk and thanked him, “We apologize for the disturbance caused by the sudden weather change, Master.” With a kind and compassionate look, the old monk glanced at them lightly and said, “You are all destined to be here. Finding the temple is also a matter of fate.” Thinking about her musings on the mountaintop, Charlotte suddenly felt that destiny was truly an interesting thing. “Now that you are here, why not leave a memento?” After carefully observing the two for a while, the old monk suddenly took two red cloth strips from the altar and handed them to them. Charlotte glanced at Joe, expecting him to refuse, but to her surprise, he accepted without hesitation. Charlotte thought for a moment and wrote, “May all your wishes come true day and night, and may the years go by, but your love remains the same.” After finishing her sentence, she turned to see what Joe had written. However, he blocked her view with his hand and said, “Wishes, once seen, lose their magic.” “I didn’t expect you to believe in these things.” Charlotte widened her eyes. Wasn’t Joe supposed to be the one who scoffed at such superstitious beliefs? Joe looked deeply into her eyes and said, “Believing in these things comes from having desires in your heart.” Charlotte instantly understood his meaning and cautiously returned the red cloth strip to the old monk. The old monk stored the red cloth strips in a box and said, “No matter your challenges, you must always trust each other. Only through trust can you make it through to the end.”
