Liang Zhou smiled and said, "Xiao Yu is very hardworking and quick-witted, but she's a chatterbox."
Mu Qing seemed moved. "You went to the temple to pray for me?"
Liang Zhou nodded. Her smile carried a trace of sorrow as she said, "Master said that your luck is bad because of our lost child's resentment. When I recalled the past, indeed, he couldn't be saved because you were late. Hence, Master said that he's venting his anger on you by making it so that no matter how hard you worked, you'd never get anything in return. I think Master has a point."
Liang Zhou saw Mu Qing's hand freeze briefly. She knew she had gotten his attention so she continued to say, "Master told me that one of us should devote ourselves to Buddha. As long as we continue to pray for our unborn child, we'll be able to appease him. When he's satisfied, he'll naturally leave in peace…"
