Chapter 256 Give Him Some Face
"You!" Chu Yuni was a little annoyed, "Can't you say something nice?"
"I'm just telling the truth. Do you want me to tell you that I have high hopes for you and that you will be able to catch up with Brother Song sooner or later? Do you think this is appropriate?"
Zhong Nanyue’s words stunned Chu Yu for a moment, and then he howled even louder.
"You're right, I just have wild ideas! I'm not even worthy of daydreaming. No wonder, no wonder Lord Shen told me to use fewer idioms and said that I have no knowledge, wuwu..."
Song Yunchu: “…”
That's called being completely uneducated.
Forget it, seeing how sad he is, I won’t correct him for now.
"Your crying is really ugly... Okay, stop crying. You actually have some strengths that others don't have."
Zhong Nanyue sat down at the table. "Although you are only a sixth-rank official, you have a lot of property. This shows that you are lucky. You were born into a good family and have a good father. Even if others don't like your official title, they can at least appreciate your family's wealth."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuni howled even louder.
"You're right. My only advantage is that I benefit from my father's influence. I'm just better at reincarnation than others... What kind of advantage is this? No wonder people look down on me."
"..." Zhong Nanyan was speechless for a moment, then turned to look at Song Yunchu, "Why is this guy so troublesome? I can't scold him or praise him. What does he want?"
"He feels bad, and we need to let him vent." Song Yunchu poured himself a glass of wine while speaking, "Although he looks carefree, he is a thoughtful person. It's a pity that the person he likes doesn't get along with him."
If he wasn't thoughtful, how could he deliberately provide convenience to Jiang Rumin and his servant, and even deliberately conceal it.
Even though he realized that Jiang Rumin had no interest in him, he never thought of taking credit for his previous help.
He tried hard to find common ground with her, but he was not knowledgeable enough.
Fate cannot be forced. When he realized that he had lost hope, it was reasonable for him to drown his sorrows in alcohol.
"The person he likes..." Zhong Nanyan snorted coldly, "Is it Miss Jiang?"
Song Yunchu glanced at Zhong Nanyan and asked, "You also know Miss Jiang?"
"How could I not recognize him? He has come to Ruihe Hall twice in the past few days since he came back. Today should be the third time. When Miss Jiang is mentioned, he smiles like a fool. No wonder he refused to stay in Yaowang Valley to play with me."
Zhong Nanyan lowered her eyes and muttered, "Anyway, I have figured it out now. If someone is not truly kind to me, it is useless to force him to stay. He just needs to entertain me for these days. When I have had enough fun, I will go back to Medicine King Valley by myself."
"His kindness to you is not false. He just treats you like an ordinary friend." Song Yunchu paused and asked Zhong Nanyan, "Has he made any promises to you since you met?"
"He promised me that after I get out, he would take me to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, he could find someone to serve me, and he could also help me find a handsome man."
"That's it." Song Yunchu smiled, "He never said that he likes you, which shows that he is also a person who knows his limits."
"Who wants him to like me? I just think he's interesting and I want him to be my little follower, that's all."
Zhong Nanyue glanced at Chu Yuni who was lying on the table in a daze, rolled her eyes and turned away.
Song Yunchu thought for a moment, then stood up and followed Zhong Nanyue's steps.
In the original novel, Zhong Nanyue targeted Jiang Rumin because she liked Jun Tianyi. Now she obviously has feelings for Chu Yuni, but Chu Yuni also likes Jiang Rumin.
This couldn't help but make Song Yunchu feel a little worried.
Fortunately, because the King of Medicine appreciated her, she accepted Zhong Nanyue as her sister. When Zhong Nanyue first arrived in the imperial city, she arranged accommodation for her. Now that she lives in the Song Mansion, she naturally trusts and relies on her.
After spending so much time together, Zhong Nanyue is no longer as willful as she was at the beginning, but there are still some things that need to be guarded against.
"Nanyan."
Song Yunchu called out to the person in front.
Zhong Nanyue paused and turned to look at her.
Song Yunchu walked up to her and saw that she looked unhappy. He raised his hand to tidy up her hair. "Xiao Chu is a very open-minded person. He got drunk because he knew he had no hope. He probably didn't intend to tell her what he was thinking. Miss Jiang doesn't know either. Can we help Xiao Chu keep it a secret? Give him some face. Don't say anything in front of Miss Jiang."
Zhong Nanyan said: "I have only met her twice, and we are not familiar with each other, so we can't talk at all."
"That's good." Song Yunchu sighed softly, "It's also my fault. When Miss Jiang was kicked out of the house and became homeless, I asked Xiaochu to take good care of Miss Jiang. If I had asked someone else to do it, Xiaochu probably wouldn't be so sad now."
"How can you be blamed for this?" Zhong Nanyan retorted instinctively, and at the same time caught the point, "Why was Miss Jiang kicked out of the house?"
"Her biological mother passed away, and her father promoted the second wife to be the mistress. The second wife had a biological daughter, so naturally she didn't like her. The mother and daughter always bullied her. Not only that, her then-fiancé was instigated by her sister to scold and beat her, which forced her to not stay at home anymore."
Listening to Song Yunchu's story, Zhong Nanyan's eyes widened. "She was bullied like this, why didn't she fight back! It would be fine if she couldn't scold them, but couldn't she poison the mother and daughter to death?"
"Poisoning a family member is a serious crime. It will be a disaster if it is discovered. Besides, as a doctor, she has never taken a life. She can't do that."
"So after she left home, did her father no longer care about her? This father is always her real father, right?"
"So what if he's her biological father." Song Yunchu shook his head. "Not everyone has a good father like you. She has never experienced the love of her father. When she was in the most difficult time, her father didn't give her a penny."
Zhong Nanyan just felt incredible, "There is actually such a father in the world..."
She had been loved by her father since she was a child and had never suffered any hardship, so she could not imagine what it felt like to be abandoned by her own father.
She might be going crazy.
If she hadn't heard Song Yunchu's story, she really wouldn't have known that Jiang Rumin's past was so difficult. Her current brilliance was earned after many hardships.
When Song Yunchu saw Zhong Nanyan lost in thought, a smile appeared in his eyes, "Okay, go and have a rest. I'll go back and persuade Xiao Chu."
