Chapter 1706
“Quit yapping, sell him the fruit and let him hurry off to the monastery. He might still make it for lunch!” Parsons
remained stone-faced, turning to pick out fruits. Even though he looked gloomy, Erica noticed that he took fruit
picking seriously. He only picked the perfect ones.
After buying the fruits and flowers, Erica and Larkin said their goodbyes to Mr. and Mrs. Parsons.
Once they were a bit away, Larkin explained to Erica, “They’ve been selling fruits here since they were young. They
met my teacher early on. As a kid, I didn’t like the meals at the monastery, so Mr. and Mrs. Parsons would sneak me
lots of fruits,”
“No wonder you’re so cute. It’s because you were cute since you were a kid, huh?” Enca said with a beaming smile.
Larkin immediately laughed.
After climbing a long flight of stairs, they arrived at the entrance of the monastery.
Upon hearing they were there for the old monk, the other party became somewhat guarded, “What business do
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou have with the him?”
Larkin replied gently, 1 used to be his student. I heard he hasn’t been well lately, so I came to visit.”
Tve never heard of him having any living students! The nun instantly got on high alert.
“What’s the matter?”
At this point, a monk emerged from inside
Larkin heard the voice, paused for a moment, then looked over.
The other party’s gaze landed on him.
Larkin gave a slight nod
“Larkin?” The other party paused for a moment.
“Long time no see, everything alright?”
“You… you’re here to see your teacher?” The monk’s gaze fell on Erica.
“Hello,” Erica greeted.
She. The monk glanced at Larkin with a complex look.
Larkin gave a slight nod
The monk sighed deeply, “Wait here, I’ll go tell your teacher”
“Thank you”
The monk tumed and left
The nun beside them locked bewildered, “You’re really a monk here before?”
Larkin nodded
“You haven’t been here in a while, have you? Ive been here for seven or eight years, and I’ve never seen you!”
“It’s been ten years,” Larkin answered.
“Ten years? That’s been quite a while The nun said, then suddenly seemed to remember something. She looked at
Larkin with a drastically different expression, “Larkin? The one who was infatuated with a woman and left the
monastery for a woman?”
“Yes”
Larkin answered calmly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe nun stared in shock, then turned to look at Erica
Is this the woman who allegedly lured away Larkin, who was once the most promising successor of the monastery.
“Yes, that’s me,” Enca seemed to read the nun’s thoughts and answered quietly.
Caught off guard by Enca’s comment, the nun blushed and quickly made up an excuse to leave.
“She’s pretty shy,” Erica muttered.
Half an hour passed after the monk left.
Just as Enca was worrying that the Larkin’s teacher wouldn’t want to see Larkin.
She saw the monk returning.
“My friends, your teacher says he won’t see you”
Larkin heard this, an answer he had anticipated
“Is it because I’m here? I can leave, Larkin really misses him, please…” Erica pleaded hurriedly
Larkin held her hand tightly, stopping her mid-sentence
“Okay” Larkan nodded, “Please give the fruit and flowers to him for us
Erica looked at Larkin with a pained expression
“I will,” the monk said.
