Chapter 2604: Comparison Truly Was the Root of All Evil!
It seemed as though Lu Junning was the center of attention. This only fueled Lu Mingxuan’s jealousy further, causing her face to contort into an ugly expression resembling mud. It felt as though needles were pricking at her heart.
What did she lack in comparison to Lu Junning? Just because she wasn’t a legitimate daughter and lacked an illustrious maternal family?
Her large sleeves concealed her tightly clenched fists. Nevertheless, she was determined to be stronger than Lu Junning!
When Lu Junning saw how twisted with jealousy Lu Mingxuan’s face was, she sneered at her disdainfully.
Ning Shu let out a sigh. When would they be able to rest?
Observing these two girls fighting each other failed to elicit any reaction from Ning Shu.
She couldn’t comprehend why they bothered engaging in such petty conflicts. They were waging war over something as trivial as someone talking to one person instead of another.
It really made no sense. This kind of dispute was utterly pointless!
Comparison truly was the root of all evil!
Ning Shu: I just want to lie down.
“The third prince has arrived,” a voice echoed through the air.
Upon hearing this news, the women straightened their attire in preparation to greet the third prince and make the best impression possible.
The most despicable man in this world was about to appear.
The third prince, Shen Hao.
With assistance from Lu Junning and her maternal family, Shen Hao ascended to the throne. However, once he achieved his goal, he discarded them without hesitation.
He even went on to kill his own son who carried his blood.
Shen Hao possessed distinguished features as expected of someone from the imperial family. He had a charming appearance and regal bearing that was clear just from standing there. He embodied the ideal man that women dreamt of having by their side.
A nobleman hailing from a prestigious lineage with striking looks.
Everyone bowed before Shen Hao in unison.
Upon seeing Shen Hao, Lu Junning tensed up all over; she struggled to control her trembling body. The hatred within her threatened to overwhelm everything else.
Lu Mingxuan’s eyes sparkled upon catching sight of Shen Hao.
Meanwhile, Ning Shu kept her head down. Why bother fighting over him? Just chop off his thing and no one will fight over him anymore.
Lu Junning turned away and left upon catching sight of Shen Hao. Her thoughts immediately drifted towards her child, who had just reached the age where he could say ‘mom’, only to be cruelly killed by Shen Hao.
Shen Hao glanced in Lu Junning’s direction. As he conversed, his gaze swept over all the noble ladies present.
A monk arranged accommodations for everyone. Ning Shu sighed in relief, she could finally go rest.
Master Liao Ran was scheduled to speak about Buddhism the following day, so they had to stay at Tiantai Temple for a night.
Even if it was just for one night, there could still be potential issues that arise.
During mealtime, Lu Junning failed to make an appearance. It was evident that she had lost her appetite since she encountered her greatest enemy.
Ning Shu found that the vegetarian food at Tiantai Temple tasted exceptionally delicious. It was meticulously prepared and offered exquisite flavors. As expected of a temple supported by the imperial family!
After experiencing life in Sehlde, Ning Shu now deeply appreciated food and no longer displayed pickiness when it came to what she ate.
It was only after going through those experiences that she realized that having something to eat was already a source of great happiness in life.
Ning Shu savored each bite slowly but ended up consuming quite a substantial amount.
After finishing the vegetarian meal, she exercised a bit by walking around near the entrance of her room instead of exploring other areas within the temple grounds, due to concerns about encountering people in crowded spaces.
As the sky gradually grew dark, Ning Shu returned to her room for some rest with Yuan Xiang sleeping beside her.
Once Yuan Xiang fell asleep, Ning Shu sat up on the bed and began cultivating.
Occasionally, the faint sound of tiles being shifted on the roof reached Ning Shu’s ears.
Her lips twitched; these individuals skilled in martial arts always seemed to be traversing the rooftops. How was anyone supposed to get proper rest in such circumstances?
As dawn broke, slightly brightening the sky above, Ning Shu concluded her cultivation session and got out of bed.
The monks were currently engaged in their morning prayers. Tiantai Temple housed a considerable number of monks. As they sat together, chanting and striking wooden fish instruments, the resounding Buddhist chants echoed throughout every corner of the vast monastery.
Ning Shu eagerly awaited the conclusion of morning prayers and the arrival of breakfast.
The meals at Tiantai Temple were so good, she felt that their vegetarian dishes tasted even better than meat-based dishes.
Gradually, guests at the temple began awakening from their slumber.
Once the monks finally finished their morning prayers, Ning Shu happily made her way to breakfast.
After all, the Lu family had generously donated significant sums of money to this temple; it was only fair for them to enjoy some vegetarian meals.
