Chapter 209 Stephanie Drew a

Auspicious Divination Stick 

Closing her eyes, the darkness around Milly inexplicably cased her mood quite a bit. The Buddhist scriptures in her ears also seemed somewhat pleasant

Although she had always firmly believed that everything depended on human effort and did not believe in any other doctrine besides science, but having kneeled down, it seemed unjust not to seek something good 

Then, she prayed for Buddha’s blessings. May all the people I care about be safe and happy, and may everything go smoothly

She also prayed that another Milly could obtain what she desired and not suffer in the next life

She didn’t ask for much

After a while, as Milly was nearly falling asleep, suddenly there was a dull sound of a bell, and the chanting of Buddhist scriptures stopped, along with the sound of the wooden fish

Master Karuna, sitting on a cushion on one side, stood up with palms together. Amitabha, the chanting for salvation has ended. Please come forward to draw a divination stick.” 

Just as Philip was getting to his feet, there was a sudden commotion from outside. Soon after, the young monk’s voice chimed in again, Amitabha, Master Karuna, there are three guests outside want to join in the 

Ceremony too.” 

Master Karuna nodded slightly upon seeing them and twirled his prayer beads. Then let them come in together

Milly blinked. They’re joining the ritual together

We have different ancestors, can we do the ritual together

Philip didn’t seem to object, which was unusual for him, being so traditional. So, who were these visitors exactly

Footsteps echoed, and Milly glanced back

The doors swung wide open, and against the light came three figures. At first glance, Milly recognised George

He was unusually not in his usual suit but dressed casually in grey, which made him look tall and lean. seeming much younger

He walked behind Andrew, bowing respectfully towards Master Karuna with an air of solemnity

Milly felt her heart skip a beat. It was the first time she had seen George like this

Is he here to pray too? Who is he praying for? What is his wish

That smile, like the vibrant lotus pond she once saw at the temple, was dazzling and bright

Milly felt her cheeks heat up and quickly looked away

As she regained her senses, she realised she had been staring at George and couldn’t help but want to give herself a slap

Ihy can’t you just mind your own business? Why are you staring

Do you not see 

not see enough handsome men? Are Jordan, Jonathan, and Anthony not handsome enough? Is Apollo not cute enough

What are you looking at! Why are you staring? Buddha teaches about the purity of the six senses, and you’re still 

staring

Amitabha

At that moment, George knelt on the cushion, palms together, and closed his eyes

First, may my family stay healthy. Second, may things go smoothly for William. Third… 

George’s tightly closed eyelashes trembled slightly. In previous years, he had only two wishes, but this year, he wanted to be a bit selfish and add one more

Third, may I win Milly’s heart and never part for the rest of our lives

As Master Karuna finished his chanting and paused with his wooden fish, he stood up and gave a slight bow. Everyone, please come up and draw your divination stick.” 

The barrel for the bamboo sticks was big, and a young monk nearby bumped into it, causing a shuffling sound 

Philip and Andrew were the first to draw, Andrew got an auspicious stick, while Philip got a neutral one. Even though it’s supposed to be quiet in the temple, Andrew couldn’t help but laugh out loud

Hahaha, Philip, looks like I’ve got the upper hand this time. Hahaha.” 

Philip’s face turned livid, and he snorted coldly. Don’t get too happy, it’s just this once!” 

Andrew was infuriated beyond measure. Heh, even once is better than you, Philip. Looks like you’re getting what’s coming to you today, hahaha.” 

Philip couldn’t hold back any longer. If they weren’t in front of the Buddha right now, he would have probably swung his cane at Andrew. Disrespecting the elderly indeed, this was it

Hmph, it was just a slip of the hand. Let me draw again, I’ll definitely get something better than you!declared Philip

As he reached to draw another lot, Master Karuna beside him intervened calmly. Amitabha, everything happens for a reason. Don’t push for something that’s not meant to be.”

Quickly lowering his head in apology, he mu 

Amitabha, my apologies for being too hasty.”

After that, it was the younger ones turn to draw a divination stick. They got all sorts of results, but Milly wasn’t interested in joining or even drawing a lot herself she just lazily yawned at the back

Before long, she heard a commotion from nearby in the crowd

Stephanie, you got the very auspicious one! You drew the top one!” 

Stephanie, you’re impressive.” 

Stephanie had quite the stroke of luck this time; she managed to draw the best divination stick, a first for their group

There were a hundred bamboo sticks in the barrel, divided into three types based on their luck: 3 very auspicious. 18 auspicious, 27 moderately auspicious, 8 very good, 24 neutral, I moderately unauspicious. and 19 very unauspicious. Drawing a very auspicious one really depends on luck

Master Karuna smiled with a twinkle in his cyc. This time, it’s all smooth sailing and good fortune, very auspicious indeed!” 

Stephanie clearly didn’t expect to draw the very auspicious one. She stood there momentarily stunned, but Master Karuna’s words brought her back to reality. She couldn’t help but smile widely. Thank you. Master 

Karuna 

Philip glanced at her with a proud look, nodding approvingly. She was truly his granddaughter

Stephanie held the lot tightly in her hand, as if it had become a part of her

May everything go smoothly and bring great luck

She just knew this time she could start anew. Surely, it was the Buddha’s kindness that gave her another. chance for a peaceful, smooth life, free from more hardships

And now, not only did she have memories from her past life to guide her, but also the Buddha’s blessings. Milly, what do you have against me now

Seeing Stephanie’s confident look, Milly couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Is this a challenge

Come on, sis. It’s just a playful lot. Haven’t you learned about Marz? Or maybe you haven’t learned about materialism

Just as Milly was about to glare back, a tall figure suddenly blocked her view, casting a shadow over half of her body

Hmm? Jordan

Jordan ruffled her hair, his eyes filled with fondness. Feeling sleepy? You can nap in the car later. Let’s go. draw a divination stick first

Milly pursed her lips. Jordan, I think I’ll pass. I’m an atheist, I don’t believe in destiny.”
