Listening to everyone’s compliments, Wen Nian still smiled humbly. Then, she went to the camera to look at the scene just now.
In order to end work early, she had indeed put in a lot of effort. She had used too much strength just now, and her waist still hurt a little. Fortunately, the images were all good.
Director Sun nodded in satisfaction. “My taste is really good. Look at how beautiful this scene is. The fighting scenes are not sloppy at all. As expected, I still have to be the one to choose the actors!”
Director Sun laughed out loud. Wen Nian was a little speechless. She didn’t know when this famous director had become someone who praised himself all the time.
“Yes, Director Sun has a unique judgement and discerning eyes. Ordinary people really can’t compare.” Wen Nian quickly flattered him. “Then, great Director Sun, can I call it a day? Didn’t you just say that we can go to pray to Buddha?”
Director Sun looked at his watch and said, “Alright, the filming progress today is not bad. Your scenes have been filmed. Go do what you need to do!”
Wen Nian was about to leave the filming location happily when she heard someone call out “Master Si Kong” from the side. Only then did she turn around.
An old monk wearing a monk’s robe that had been washed until it was a little faded stood in the corner of the filming venue with his palms pressed together. Then, he bowed to the people around him.
Seeing that Wen Nian was also looking over, he walked over with a smile. Director Sun hurriedly went up to him. “Abbot Si Kong, I’m really sorry about today. I hope our filming didn’t disturb everyone’s rest.”
Master Si Kong shook his head. “A calm heart is naturally not affected by external objects. Moreover, I have met an old friend here once.”
He looked at Wen Nian and nodded.
Many people around were a little surprised. Actually, everyone knew that Wen Nian was from Hai City, but they didn’t expect her to know Abbot Si Kong of Xuanhuan Temple.
“You’re old friends with Wen Nian? No wonder you suddenly agreed after we had talked with your temple many times about filming.” Director Sun looked at Wen Nian with relief. “Wen Nian is indeed a lucky star. I have good taste.”
However, at this moment, Wen Nian was no longer in the mood to tease Director Sun. She suddenly felt a little nervous. This was the first time she had met Master Si Kong in her life, but why did he say that he knew her?
Wen Nian tried her best to control her expression, but she was already panicking.
Si Kong walked up to her and looked at Wen Nian with a complicated expression. “Amitabha. Benefactor Wen, we haven’t seen each other in a long time. I know that you’re coming to look for me today. We’ve indeed met once. I wonder if it’s convenient for you to talk about it in detail?”
Wen Nian nodded stiffly. Many people around her looked over enviously, but only she knew that the current situation could only be described as strange.
In order to avoid misunderstandings, Wen Nian only brought Abbot Si Kong to her resting area. There was only a shaded roof, not indoors.
“Benefactor, there’s no need to be so nervous. In fact, I didn’t know who you were a few days ago,” Si Kong said with some disappointment. “However, some things are indeed unbelievable. Perhaps there are plans in the dark.”
Wen Nian said hesitantly, “Do you know who I am? Who I am, my true identity?”
The matter of her rebirth had always troubled her. She was even worried that others would know her secret and treat her as a monster. She didn’t even dare to tell Shen Jun. But now, Abbot Si Kong was sitting in front of her and said that he knew her. She couldn’t help but be afraid.
Si Kong smiled. “You’re you. You’re Wen Nian in both your past and present lives, aren’t you?”
Although it was just a few words, Wen Nian seemed to be frozen. Indeed, Si Kong knew about her.
“You and I can be considered fated. Although I’m not sure of the various reasons, since we’re destined to meet again, I’ll fulfill your wish.” He took out the prayer beads. “This is for you. I hope you won’t entrust it to the wrong person this time and can fulfill your wish.”
Wen Nian reached out and looked at the prayer beads that she had begged for a long time in her previous life. Now that Si Kong had handed them to her, she was a little confused. “You gave me the prayer beads just like that. Then, is your grandson… the child alright?”
Since Abbot Si Kong already knew some things, she might as well ask. After all, it was a human life. If she needed to donate her bone marrow, she was still willing.
Upon hearing her words, Si Kong smiled in relief. “Karma circulates. That child has a good life and is very healthy..”
