Pick Up a Son, Get a Free Husband 9

Chapter 1678: Wish That I'm My Mommy's Child

The five of them bought joss sticks outside and walked into the hall. They took turns to put up the joss sticks and pray for blessings.

Jennie carefully helped Leo light up his joss stick, then she taught him how to put the joss stick on the altar and kneel to pray.

Leo arranged the joss stick on the altar, then very properly and extremely sincerely knelt on the praying mat and closed his eyes as he earnestly made a wish.

As Jennie watched the little bun's sincere behavior, her lips curled up as she asked, "Leo, what did you wish for?"

It was rare for the little guy not to answer Jennie. He earnestly said, "I can't say it. If I do, then it won't work!"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Jennie laughed lightly.

However, she was really curious! What would the little bun's wish be?

The little bun pursed his lips as he looked up to his mother, then to the Buddha statue again. He silently reiterated the wish in his heart.

I hope that Mommy can be my mother forever! Grandfather Buddha, forgive my greed. If it is possible to have one more wish, I also wish... How great would it be if I was my mother's child...

"Buddha, please bless us. Bless our Manoban family in getting through this calamity!" Mother Manoban prayed with a fervent expression, then she murmured again as her voice lowered further, "I hope that Lisa can settle down and get married soon..."

Jennie knelt down too, but she soon got up after that. She did not wish for anything as she believed Lisa. There was really nothing to request from the Buddha.

Father Manoban donated a golden Buddha statue, and the monk gratefully pressed both palms together to say, "Amitabha. Benefactor Manoban is truly generous! Thank you for your contribution, Benefactor!"

He put both palms together and replied "Amitabha" before he asked, "I wonder if Master Xuan Jing is in the temple today? Is he free? I have something that I may need to bother him about and receive the advice of the Master!"

When the monk heard the request, he replied, "Master is currently in seclusion, so it isn't too convenient to meet guests. I'm truly sorry."

"No worries, we understand. Thank you!" He appeared regretful.

Initially, he had wanted to ask Master Xuan Jing if there was any way to resolve the Manoban family's matter.

Unexpectedly, he had even reached to the point of requesting help from God and Buddha...

Even though he could not meet Master Xuan Jing, they did not immediately leave either. To express their sincerity, they had chanted sutras in the temple and transcribed the scriptures. They only left the temple when the sun set.

A black car silently traveled back to the city.

They had been out for the entire day. Leo yawned and wearily fell asleep in Jennie's embrace. Jennie was infected by the little bun's sleepiness, and she also started to feel sleepy.

While the other three people were all deep in thoughts of their own, they were clearly not sleepy at all.

"Jennie, let me carry Leo!" Mother Manoban took Leo from Jennie's arms.

Jennie reluctantly let go. After leaving his mother's embrace, the little bun uneasily frowned as Mother Manoban lifted him.

"Diana, have dinner with us tonight!" she intimately invited Diana.

Jennie had suddenly appeared and she was so close to Leo, so she could not help but worry that Diana would feel uneasy.

"Just eat at our residence! Today, our entire family must have a proper gathering!" Father Manoban immediately decided.

The two of them, intentionally or otherwise, straight up neglected Jennie's existence. They did not mention her at all.

Father Manoban's expression was sunken. He did not believe that with such words, this woman would still be thick-faced and use Leo as an excuse to stay again.

At this moment, Jennie, who had been resting, suddenly woke up with wide eyes. An aloofness had suddenly appeared in her eyes. "Careful!"

Almost the instant after she said that, came a loud bam that sent a chill up everyone's spines. Their car had been severely rammed into.
