Chapter 870: Mystery


    In the absence of Xiang Wai and Zhai Yanjun, Hyson and Huang Shuyi were


    catching up which they hadn''t done in a while. Suddenly remembering


    something, Huang Shuyi took out something from his pocket and gave it to


    Hyson saying, "I asked for this peace talisman for your best friend. You bring it


    to her for me."


    Hyson looked at the talisman and then looked at Huang Shuyi, "Brother, she


    isn''t a believer."


    "Neither are you," said Huang Shuyi. "But you still have the Budha bead I gave


    you. And you always keep it close to you as well."


    "You said it''ll protect me," replied Hyson. "So, I wanted to see if that thing


    really was that powerful."


    "It''s not the things that are powerful, it''s the belief," said Huang Shuyi. "And


    you didn''t keep it to test a theory. You kept it because it was my goodwill. And


    you don''t like letting people down. Since that bead represented my sincerest


    feelings, you took it very seriously." He took a pause and added, "I don''t know


    Raelle that well but I''m willing to believe she isn''t much different than you. It''s


    not my talisman that she''ll ept. It''ll be my thoughts."


    Hyson took the talisman and nodded his head, "You''re right. She''ll definitely


    ept your thoughts and she''ll appreciate it as well. Thank you for this!"


    Huang Shuyi waved him off nonchntly, "You already know I visit the temple


    once a month. It was just during the routine visit that I asked for this."


    "I know. I know how pious you are. But I also know that your routine visits are


    always on thest Saturday of the month. But this time, you actually went in


    the middle of the month. Brother, I''m no fool. I know you specifically went


    there once you learned about Ellie''s ident."


    "She is after all your best friend," said Huang Shuyi. "You said she is family.


    This was all I could think about since Zhen Ge said we are not allowed to visit


    the hospital."


    Hyson smiled to himself but didn''t say anything. He put the talisman safely in


    his pocket. He wasn''t really a believer but he had seen how devoted Huang


    Shuyi had been in his life. During thest month of the week, he''d always eat


    only vegetarian. In fact, his diet was often very nd. It didn''t mean he was


    trying to be a monk, but it definitely held some meaning to Huang Shuyi. No, it


    definitely had a very important meaning to him.


    Apart from his group members, not many people knew about Huang Shuyi''s


    this interest. Definitely not his fans. He was pious and liked to keep a low


    profile. But he was equally dazzling on the stage as well.


    "Fai, do you think Zhen Ge is dating someone?"


    Hyson coughed when he heard that question and raised his brows at Huang


    Shuyi''s sudden question. "What? Where did thate from?"


    Huang Shuyi shrugged, "I''m just asking casually."


    "He isn''t," answered Hyson. "Just the other day he looked more heartbroken


    seeing how his dog betrayed him. He is definitely too busy with his dog to think


    of a rtionship."


    "Oh, he''s still raising Coco?" asked Huang Shuyi.


    "You know his dog?" asked Hyson in return.


    Huang Shuyi hummed, "I gave him Coco."


    "What? Why? How?"


    "That''s actually a very interesting story," said Huang Shuyi. "Coco was an


    abandoned puppy that Wai found. You see, that girl has some kind of a spiritual


    connection with animals. Animals just love to be close to her. Coco was very


    injured at that time. She sent Coco to the vet and got it treated as well. But she


    couldn''t adopt Coco as well. Back then Coco was very insecure and wasn''t


    willing to be left at those adoption centers. Wai sent Coco to me. But I also


    didn''t n on raising a dog so I mentioned it in passing to Zhen Ge who readily


    decided to adopt Coco on the spot."


    Hyson was gaping at this point and didn''t know what to say. "I didn''t know


    there was such a story. I think Coco remembers Major. The other day, Coco


    looked so unwilling to let her go."


    "Well, animals are sensitive to smell. Even though Coco was small, Coco was


    very insecure during that dark period. Who pulled it out of darkness, Coco will


    definitely have some impression of that person."


    "You''re right," agreed Hyson. He thought that whoever pulls you from your


    darkness would always leave an evesting impression on you—just like Xiang


    Wai left an impact on Zhai Yanjun and vice versa. Whether they realized it by


    now or not, it was true that they both had an undeniable connection from the


    moment they both became the ray of light in each other''s dark world.


    Apart from that, Hyson was also thinking about how people were often


    connected in an inexplicable way. Xiang Wai might have not recognized Coco


    after all these years but Coco definitely did.


    "They are here," said Huang Shuyi.


    Hyson instantly turned around and as soon as he saw Zhai Yanjun and Xiang


    Waiing back, he hid under the table saying, "Brother, cover me!"


    "Are we in a spy movie?" asked Huang Shuyi. "Besides, you brought them


    together. Now, show your face."


    "Brother, I do good deeds in anonymity," he replied. "You know, mystery? That


    mysterious feeling is kind of addicting."


    "Silly!"mented Huang Shuyi.


    "Call me whatever. Just cover me for now!"


    "You''re asking me to lie," reminded Huang Shuyi.


    "A lie told for a good cause isn''t a lie," said Hyson. "Besides, you lied earlier


    when you started that act with Major as well. Don''t act like you don''t lie."


    Huang Shuyi chuckled softly to himself. He couldn''t help teasing Hyson right


    now. He really didn''t think Hyson had a need to hide but since he wanted to, as


    a responsible elder brother, he''ll definitely cover him up. Not like it was


    difficult to do..
