Wang Yuyan couldn't help but spit out, "What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Song Qingshu leaned against the railing behind him and smiled casually. "I saw you crying so hard, so I decided to tease you a little."
Wang Yuyan raised the back of her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks. She asked hesitantly, "Did you hear our conversation just now?"
"Of course I did." Song Qingshu smiled faintly.
"I'm sorry," Wang Yuyan said apologetically.
Song Qingshu waved his hand dismissively. "What's there to be sorry about? You're not anyone to Murong Fu. You're just my cousin."
Although Wang Yuyan was still angry at Murong Fu just now, she knew that Song Qingshu had discovered everything, so she subconsciously tried to explain on her cousin's behalf. "Prince Song, my cousin didn't want this to happen either. It's just that this opportunity is far too important to him."
Song Qingshu smiled nonchalantly. "Miss Wang, you don't need to defend him. I don't actually blame him. On the contrary, I understand him very well. If I were in his shoes, I would most likely make the same choice. "
A strange expression appeared on Wang Yuyan's pale face. In the end, she sighed softly. "I didn't think that you would speak up for him."
"If I don't speak up for him, how can I show off my magnanimity in front of Miss Wang?" Song Qingshu laughed heartily, a carefree expression on his face.
Wang Yuyan looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect him to be so honest. However, Wang Yuyan could tell from Song Qingshu's tone and demeanor that he wasn't just saying those things to please her. Although he had been flirting with her all this time, his eyes were as clear as crystal. It was clear that he didn't have any ulterior motives towards her as he had said.
Wang Yuyan looked back at all the men she had met in her life. Whether it was her fickle cousin or Young Master Duan, none of them were as aloof as Song Qingshu. It was as if she was just an ordinary friend in his heart. He spoke to her casually and did not care if she hated or liked him …
Seeing Wang Yuyan's dazed expression, Song Qingshu couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her. "You can't really be comparing the pros and cons of me and your cousin, right?"
"Of course not …" Wang Yuyan lowered her head as a blush appeared on her cheeks.
Song Qingshu did not mind and asked casually, "Since Miss Wang is here, that Young Master Duan from Dali should also be nearby, right?"
Wang Yuyan could not help but spit. "Prince Song, don't spout nonsense. There's nothing going on between me and Young Master Duan …"
Song Qingshu smiled noncommittally. "That lad Duan Yu is deeply in love with you. He calls you fairy sister over and over again. I don't believe that you don't know what he's thinking."
Wang Yuyan sighed softly. "I'm wholeheartedly in love with my cousin. I can only let Young Master Duan down."
"Don't you have any feelings for that lad Duan Yu?" Song Qingshu looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Wang Yuyan's face reddened and she immediately pouted. "Prince Song is a dignified man. How can he act like a woman and pry into a woman's thoughts?"
"Everyone loves gossip. What's the difference between a man and a woman?" Song Qingshu did not look ashamed at all. "If Miss Wang doesn't mind, you can treat me as your soulmate. Who knows, I might even be able to share some of your worries."
Wang Yuyan was stunned. "What do you mean by soulmate?"
Song Qingshu said, "If a woman can be a man's soulmate, then a man can naturally be a woman's soulmate as well. Miss Wang is well-read, so it should be easy for you to understand."
Wang Yuyan retorted angrily, "Who asked you to be my … soulmate?"
Song Qingshu's expression became serious. "I owe my current achievements to you, Miss, for your guidance that day. That was how I was able to reconnect my meridians. I've always been grateful to you. That's why I showed myself when I saw you being bullied by my cousin. I just want to help you as much as I can, so that you can understand your true heart as soon as possible. "
"My true heart?" For some reason, Wang Yuyan subconsciously believed Song QingShu's words when she saw his serious expression.
"I still have something to do later, so I'll have to make it short. Think about it yourself." Song Qingshu coughed lightly and said slowly, "I can see that Miss Wang has always liked your cousin. However, Prince Murong has always been busy with his own ambitions, so he hasn't reciprocated your love. At this time, a handsome young master Duan appeared, and he was at your beck and call. Although you might not have fallen in love with him, you definitely had a good impression of him, and you enjoyed the feeling of being spoiled. So, although you've always been lukewarm towards him, you didn't reject him outright, nor did you take the initiative to draw a clear line between yourself and him.
"Miss' cousin, how should I put it … He's a classic example of someone who wants to save face. He's obviously narrow-minded but pretends to be generous. Although he doesn't say it, he'll definitely be very unhappy when he sees this. As time goes by, he'll definitely vent his anger on you. He'll think that you, as a woman, don't know how to be reserved and self-respecting, and have an ambiguous relationship with another man …"
Seeing Wang Yuyan's face gradually turn pale, Song Qingshu continued, "So, I'll give you a piece of advice. You must understand your true heart as soon as possible. If you've really made up your mind to spend the rest of your life with Murong Fu, then draw a clear line between yourself and Duan Yu as soon as possible. If you like that brat Duan Yu more, then accept his love as soon as possible, lest you end up with nothing in the end. "
Thinking of how her cousin had been treating her ever since she met Duan Yu, Wang Yuyan was shocked. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Song Qingshu's analysis made sense. But young master Duan had treated her so well, how could she be so heartless and hurt his heart …
"Then who do you think I should choose?" Wang Yuyan murmured to herself. When the words came out of her mouth, she was shocked. Why did he ask such a question? Could it be that she no longer had the confidence in choosing her cousin?
Song QingShu looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, but he did not expose her thoughts. He answered, "Miss Wang and Murong Gongzi are childhood sweethearts. Moreover, Murong Gongzi is well-versed in both literature and martial arts. He is also quite famous in the Wulin world. Originally, he was the best candidate for Miss' husband, but …"
"But what?" Wang Yuyan panicked when she saw him pausing on purpose.
"But Prince Murong has his heart set on reclaiming the glory of Great Yan, and has no time for romance." Song Qingshu threw out a heavy bomb.
Wang Yuyan felt a chill running down her spine. The Murong clan's motto of reclaiming the glory of Great Yan had always been a top secret, and only a few people knew about it. So, how did Song Qingshu know about it?
Looking at the frightened look on her face, Song Qingshu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss. I'll never reveal this secret to anyone, and I have no intention of using it to threaten Prince Murong … Now, you should believe me when I said I understand his choice, right?"
