Chapter 0256

The scent of incense in the temple was strong, with red walls and green bamboo giving people a

sense of peace.

One could still hear the faint chanting and bells ringing from inside.

Candice looked at Hanley and asked, “Why did you bring me here?”

Hanley answered, “To light a lamp.”

Although the temple was crowded, it was unexpectedly quiet. It seemed as if everyone had reached a consensus to speak and act softly, afraid of disturbing the peace there.

Hanley lowered his gaze. “When I was a child, I used to light a lamp here for my

my grandmother.”

The place to light the lamp was in the backyard. The young monk in charge of registration looked compassionate, folded his hands in greeting, and then handed Candice a bundle of incense.

Candice pursed her lips, looking at the clusters of lights on top, hesitating to make a move. It

wasn’t until a gust of wind blew that Hanley’s deep and calm voice sounded, “My grandfather said that lighting a lamp here for the ones we miss can guide their way.”

Only then did she slowly start to act.

As the green smoke rose, elegantly spiraling upward, she folded her hands together, her

expression pious and earnest.

When she returned home, the red paint on the door was still there. Candice hesitated for a moment before opening the door. The house, unoccupied for a few days, had accumulated dust easily, and upon opening the door, a cloud of dust greeted her.

Candice didn’t let Hanley in. She said, “It’s too messy inside.”

His eyelashes drooped, and after a pause, he spoke, “If there’s anything, call me. I’ll be nearby.”

She nodded. After he left, she closed the door.

The inside of the house was indeed chaotic. That night, she had left hastily, leaving the whole place in a mess.

Candice sat on the sofa for a while, looking at the furniture in the house. She initially thought she could quickly bring Joe back to live together.
