Fox Song

Chapter 83 Matchmaking
After learning the news that the abbot of Linyin Temple, Zhiyuan, had passed away, Zixuan and Xiaojing rushed to Jinling that day and met Lanlan who had been waiting there.

Although on the mountain, Zixuan could clearly see that the environment of the mountains and forests around Linyin Temple had changed greatly, as if it had experienced a great war. Zixuan suspected that the death of Zhiyuan Dade was directly related to the master behind the human puppet.

Unfortunately, she couldn't find anyone in the temple who knew what was going on. According to them, the abbot had asked all of them to go down the mountain a few days ago, so they didn't know what was going on on the mountain.

Zixuan was surprised by Zhiyuan's entrustment. How could he be sure that they would come? Who was the destined person that Zhiyuan asked her to wait for? Was there any hidden reason behind his departure?
She racked her brains but had no clue about it, so she could only give up and keep it to herself for the time being.

Thanks to Gu Zhengyang and Lanlan's hospitality, Zixuan and Xiaojing stayed in Jinling for a day.

Later, thinking about the many things they had to do, they finally decided to leave the next afternoon.

However, they didn’t expect that they still failed to leave!
After dinner, Zixuan said that they could leave after a short rest. Xiaojing said that was not possible! She said that it was a rare trip and she wanted to buy some local specialties to bring back.

Zixuan thought about it and realized that she had her own family and friends in Hangzhou, so it would be bad to go back empty-handed.

So, she immediately decided to spend an hour or two shopping and buy some salted duck, Yuhua tea, Jinling brocade, etc. After all, buying locally always feels more authentic.

The car drove slowly forward. Although it was not the rush hour and we were still in the city, a traffic accident on the main road in the city caused congestion, giving people the feeling that we had entered rush hour.

"I can ride a bicycle faster than this!" Xiaojing pouted.

"It's nothing strange. There are more and more private cars, and some people don't obey traffic rules. Traffic jams are common." Zi Xuan smiled calmly, "Compared to Beijing, Nanjing is much better."

She looked at Xiao Jing and continued, "A few days ago, there was a popular joke on the Internet about the traffic jam in Beijing. It was quite interesting."

"What joke is it? Is it funny? Tell me about it!" Xiaojing couldn't help but become interested when she heard there was a joke.

"How can you become popular if you're not funny? This joke teller's dish is not that tasty!" Zixuan said with a smile.

At Xiaojing's urging, Zixuan continued to tell a joke: "A man brought his pet turtle to work. After get off work, he drove home and encountered a traffic jam on the Second Ring Road in Beijing.

After watching the car move only a few steps for a long time, the turtle finally lost his patience and insisted on crawling back home first. The owner had no choice but to let him go.

After an unknown amount of time, the owner heard a knock on the door in the car. He opened the door and was surprised to find that it was his pet turtle.

The turtle was sweating profusely and said angrily: "You forgot to give me the key to my house..."

Xiao Jing was stunned after hearing this, and then burst into laughter: "The car is still in the same place, but the turtle has gone back and forth twice! This road is really congested! It's so dark!"

"Of course, the masters are among the people!" Zi Xuan laughed.

The two chatted as the car slowly moved forward.

A few minutes later, Xiao Jing asked in confusion, "Uh, sister, you must have made a mistake, where are you going? The largest specialty store isn't here?"

Zixuan didn't answer. She drove the car straight out of the central road at the bend and headed towards the side road.

Xiaojing looked puzzled as she watched her drive into an underground parking lot in the building next door.

"Get off the car!"

"Ah? What for?"

"You'll find out if you follow."

"So mysterious! What's going on?" Xiaojing saw that Zixuan didn't explain much.

The two of them walked out of the parking lot one after the other, and followed the same path they came from to a nearby shop.

"Look up!" Zixuan stopped and pointed at a building.

Xiaojing raised her head and looked towards the building. This building was an office building, and many of the upper floors were obviously rented out, with many billboards posted outside.

Xiaojing was sharp-eyed and saw at a glance that on the seventh floor of the building, there were several squares of paper with advertisements written on them on the windows outside. Xiaojing was stunned. These words together were exactly: JJ Lin calligraphy and painting training.

"JJ Lin? No wonder! You still want to look for clues?" Xiao Jing suddenly realized. Zi Xuan's expression froze, and she nodded and walked towards the entrance of the building.

"This place is quite far from Jinling Academy of Arts. I think it's just another calligraphy and painting training institution in name only. You've even been to JJ Lin's office and studio. Is there anything else you can find here? I think you should stop wasting your time, sister!"

"It doesn't matter if you take a look!" Zi Xuan said with a smile, "It won't take more than a few minutes!"

"Oh, it's really hopeless!" Xiaojing thought about it and sighed.

After walking a few steps forward with Zixuan, she gently pushed Zixuan with her hand and chuckled, "Sister, I think if there is a clue, it is very likely in his house, such as the study or bedroom. The bedroom is especially likely. Are you interested?"

"Look at how excited you are." Zi Xuan seemed unmoved and teased, "If you're not afraid of his girlfriend Guan Ruoshui, I'll take you there some other day."

"JJ Lin, I'm not interested. Just do it yourself."

"Oh, who are you interested in? How about I introduce you to someone?"

"Well, to whom? I..."

Xiao Jing pondered, and suddenly a handsome man appeared in her mind.

Then, she blurted out, "How is Jiang He?"

Xiaojing had been to the headquarters of Qianqiu Group and had naturally seen this rumored handsome national husband.

Zi Xuan was stunned when she heard this, then shook her head and said with a smile: "Although this is an era where appearance is everything, it is not enough to just look at appearance!"

"Tsk! If you don't want to, forget it! He's not only handsome, but also talented!" Xiao Jing frowned and said tentatively, "From what I see, he likes you, right?"

Zi Xuan smiled calmly and said, "I don't know, but I'm not that interested in him!"

"Oh, that's right! After all, you are my sister, you have always had high tastes and many suitors..." Xiao Jing was stunned when she heard that, then she chuckled, "However, Jiang He is a good man, elder sister, you shouldn't waste your resources on him... You see, my second sister is about to get married and integrate into secular life, and you also have a lover, so I, your younger sister..."

Zi Xuan found it funny and said, "You've said so much, do you want me to help you make connections?"

"Hehe, big sister is just nice!"

"It's okay to be a matchmaker!" Zi Xuan said, "but you want to take the national husband into your skirt, haha, no way!"

"You don't like him! Why?"

"I'm afraid you'll suffer!"

"Tsk! I won't do that!"

"Jiang He has seen countless women. If you really want to be with him, it will only be one more plaything for you..."

Xiao Jing was surprised, and then said without hesitation:
"I don't believe it. Why do I feel that he is not the kind of person you said?"

"Then I'm afraid you will squeeze him dry, is that okay..." Zi Xuan said with a smile.

Xiao Jing was very upset when she heard this. She smiled bitterly and said, "That's even more impossible. How could I..."

"As far as I remember, you and him have only met once, right? Isn't it too soon for me to act as a matchmaker?"

"What's wrong with that! Isn't it okay to fall in love at first sight?"

"I think you should change your target. I'll introduce you to someone else!"

"Uh, big sister, you don't want to, do you want to have the best of both worlds?... Don't go so fast, let's discuss it... Sister!"
