The old lady naturally agreed, adding, "We really should go. I once made a vow before Buddha that if you could be found and brought back, I would have a golden statue cast in his honor."
"All right, we'll use my personal savings. Whichever Bodhisattva you want to cast a golden statue for, we'll cast it for that Bodhisattva. We can even cast statues for all of them."
Xu Su Ying comforted her softly as she helped her lie down on the bed.
However, the old lady kept her eyes wide open, absolutely refusing to close them.
Seeing this, Xu Su Ying chuckled. "Look at you, are you still afraid this is all a dream? Touch me—I'm warm. I'm a real, living person. Just go to sleep with peace of mind. As soon as you wake up tomorrow morning, you'll see me right here."
Only then did the old lady admit the truth. "I don't dare to sleep. I'm terrified that if I do, I'll wake up tomorrow and find out this was nothing but a dream."
