Jing Chen said with a half-smile: "Oh? It seems that you have a good impression of the young lady of the Cui family."

Su Chenyu chuckled and said, "I wouldn't say I have a crush on her. At least she doesn't have any ulterior motives. But someone seems to be a little moved?"

Jing Chen glanced at Su Chenyu, then slowly closed his eyes and said nothing.

Su Chenyu chuckled and said, "Ye Jingchen, you are quite dark! I saw it before. That girl is only ten years old, and you are already obsessed with her? Even if you like her, it is impossible for you two to be together! I advise you to give up your thoughts."

Jing Chen slowly opened his eyes and stared at Su Chenyu's face for a long time...

Just when Su Chenyu felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Jing Chen...

"You're almost eighteen and still unmarried. What qualifications do you have to analyze other people's emotional affairs?"

This question choked Su Chenyu. After a while, she said angrily, "Just because I have lived a few years longer than you, seen more than you, and walked more than you, tell me first, do you feel differently about that little girl?"

Jing Chen frowned and said, "Tell me about it."

"Think about it. First, would your father agree to you marrying a woman from a peasant family? Even if she passed the civil and military examinations and became the top scholar, the Xu family's background is relatively shallow. Even if you like the little girl, she can only be a concubine at best.

The most important thing is, with that girl's personality, to put it bluntly, a concubine is just a high-ranking concubine whose rank is lower than that of the main wife. There is no way she will agree to you.

And the other members of the Xu family love her so much that even if you help her find a husband from the countryside, there is no way you will let that girl be your concubine."

Jing Chen's face darkened and he said, "When did I say I wanted to take a concubine?"

Su Chenyu said, "If you don't want to marry her, someone will force you to do it. Your status means that you will have no control over many things. But what you mean by saying this is that you admit that you have different feelings for that girl?"

Jing Chen did have a different feeling towards Qibao. The little girl's every smile and frown was naturally deeply touching when he recalled it now. He had never been so attentive to a woman before, and he really liked being with her. He did not deny that he liked Qibao.

Su Chenyu understood what was happening and said, "You have only two choices. First, you must be able to prevent your father and the officials from interfering in your marriage.

Second, you like her, but I don’t see that she likes you. The most important thing is that you make Qibao like you. However, the girl is still young and doesn’t understand matters of the heart. You have to wait until she grows up.

The girl is so outstanding, when she grows up, there will definitely be young men looking for her hand in marriage. And you are in the capital, if she falls in love with someone else, then... hehe."

When Jing Chen heard this, his brows frowned even tighter. He felt a little panicked when he thought that the little girl would fall in love with another man in the future.

Su Chenyu continued, "Actually, putting aside your status as a prince, you're not worthy of Qibao! I've known Qiben for so long, and her martial arts skills are better than yours and mine, and she's incredibly smart. The Xu family has many magical aspects, and you should know them without me even telling you, right?"

Jing Chen still agreed with Su Chenyu's words in his heart. He was indeed not worthy of Qibao. A girl like Qibao yearned for freedom and unrestrainedness. If she really became his wife, the royal family would be a constraint for the girl, and she didn't like it.

Su Chenyu continued, "So, cousin, you have to think clearly. Either let go calmly, or show your sincerity and guarantee that you can give Qibao a free life."

Jing Chen shook his palm and asked him to let go. With his unyielding nature, it was absolutely impossible! He could only give it a try.

Su Chenyu observed the expression on Jing Chen's face. Only then did he see the expression on his cousin's face that a normal person should have: determination!

"Okay! Maybe she only sees you as a friend! Don't be too self-indulgent and get too deeply involved. To pursue a girl, you need to be thick-skinned and know how to please her." Su Chenyu said.

Jing Chen immediately asked, "How do I ask for it?"

Su Chenyu scratched his head and thought for a moment before saying, "Please cater to his preferences!"

Jing Chen pondered for a moment, thinking back to the past, and found that the little girl seemed to like money? His eyes lit up slightly.

Seeing this, Su Chenyu said, "Have you thought about it?"

Jing Chen nodded and continued to close his eyes in thought. No matter what Su Chenyu said next, he remained silent.

"You are so heartless. You were enthusiastic about using me to give you advice just now, but now that you have used me, you just abandon me. There are people when there is something, and no one when there is nothing. I can see it clearly!" Su Chenyu muttered.

"Master, it's almost noon. There is a town ahead. Do you want to finish your meal and then continue on your journey?" Ye Feng's voice came from outside.

Su Chenyu said: "Okay, Ye Feng, take care of the tail at the same time."

Ye Feng replied, "Yes!"

The carriage slowly drove into the town and stopped at a restaurant.

"Miss, the carriage in front has stopped. They must be going to have lunch. Should we take a rest for a while?" A young coachman said towards the carriage.

"Okay, go buy some food and I'll eat in the carriage. Hurry up and go!" A slightly arrogant voice sounded.

"Yes! I'll go right away!"

In the carriage, there were a master and a servant. The maid sat next to the young lady with her head lowered and huddled together.

"I get angry when I see you! Look at how cowardly you are. You are not worthy of serving me!" After saying this, the young lady reached out and twisted the maid's arm.

The maidservant said nothing and endured it silently.

If someone saw the maid's face, they would find that her face was covered with finger marks, her cheeks were red and purple, and a little swollen.

After a while, the driver brought a food box into the carriage.

The maid immediately took the food box, lowered her head to open it, and placed the food inside on the small table one by one.

The woman looked at the food in front of her with a look of disgust, and said in a gloomy tone, "Is this pig food? How can you serve it in front of Miss Ben?"

The driver immediately bent down and said flatteringly, "Hey! Miss! This is just a run-down town. There's no good food here. I only picked out the best. Please just eat a few bites, otherwise your delicate body won't be able to bear it!"

"Alright, alright! Stop saying those nice words to coax me!"

The maid hurriedly served the woman food, very carefully, fearing that she would make another mistake and get beaten again.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened during the meal.

"Okay, finish the rest!" The woman leaned her head on her hands, glanced at the maid with contempt, and waved her hand.

"Yes, Miss!"

The maid suffered a lot of hardships along the way, and her body was covered with bruises and purples. The young lady would pinch her body whenever she had the chance.

"Miss, the young man in front is coming out, we are about to set off!" the coachman shouted outside.

"Hurry up and follow me, don't get lost. I believe that as long as I follow that extraordinary young man without any hesitation, he will be moved by my sincerity, and then you will benefit from it!" said the lady excitedly.

"Yes! Miss, please sit tight, I will follow you and I will definitely not get lost." The driver agreed.
