Ouyang Yi apologized to Qiao Zhizhi.
"It's alright. Young Master Ouyang is exceptionally intelligent. I believe that after explaining for so long, you will have a deeper understanding when you get back. You won't need to spend so much time and effort on this in the future, and you won't even be able to eat," Qiao Zhizhi said.
Ouyang Yi looked a little embarrassed.
However, he had already achieved his goal. He deliberately dragged it out for so long this time, so that if he asked questions after class in the future, as long as it did not exceed this time, it would be acceptable, and Qiao Zhizhi would lower her guard against him.
Ouyang Yi took his leave, and Lin Songyan frowned as he watched him go.
He always felt that it was a bit strange that Ouyang Yi was only signing up for classes at this time.
However, Ouyang Yi had been on good terms with him since childhood. Although he had his doubts, none of them were confirmed, so he could not conclude that Ouyang Yi had any ulterior motives.
He made a decision: from now on, he would leave whenever Ouyang Yi left.
"You suspect Young Master Ouyang?" Qiao Zhizhi asked.
"Yes, he doesn't want the Lin family and the Qiao family to marry. He tried to persuade me, but he seems to have feelings for you, so I can't help but overthink it."
"If he really thought you were bad, if he really thought the Qiao family was bad, he should have stayed far away from you."
“Our two families are currently going through the wedding process, and he went to sign up for classes again.”
Qiao Zhizhi said, "I also heard part of what Ouyang Yi said to you at the Heng Prince's Mansion last time."
“I went to the Winter Garden, and he followed me. He even wanted to give me flowers, which was quite obvious, so I suspected that he had ulterior motives, or even ill intentions.”
It's better to talk these things out so that everyone knows who the other person is wary of and can deal with things together.
She didn't want to create any misunderstandings or unpleasantness. After all, she had grown up for twenty years, and solving problems was always more important than exhausting herself.
Hearing her say that, Lin Songyan frowned even more.
It's almost certain that Ouyang Yi's intentions were not pure.
He also told Qiao Zhizhi what he knew.
“I found out that Master Ouyang visited us several times in the past month, more frequently than before. Although I don’t know what he and my father discussed, I suspect it’s related to our marriage.”
The two exchanged information, their eyes met, and they fell silent for a moment, both having a premonition that this grand wedding would not be as simple and smooth as they had imagined.
"No, I have to tell Lian'er all of this. There are some things that only Lian'er can find out more clearly. Now is a critical moment. If the two of us miss something and it affects the wedding, it will be a misfortune for both families," Qiao Zhizhi said decisively.
Lin Songyan also knew Qiao Lian'er's abilities: "Alright, then we'll have to trouble Princess Feiluan. If you can find out the Ouyang family's deeper purpose, then you will be our benefactor."
“Ouyang Yi stayed up so late today. From now on, I’ll stay with you after school. Let’s see how embarrassed he will be with his fiancé here.”
Qiao Zhizhi chuckled: "Today is Ouyang Yi's first time enrolling in a class, so I'm being a little more patient, lest someone say that I'm not taking it seriously after collecting tuition fees."
"Now that I know he's suspicious, how could I let him stall for time in the future?"
Lin Songyan escorted Qiao Zhizhi to her doorstep. As they parted, he reached out and brushed the snowflakes from her hair.
In another month or so, when the winter snow has melted and spring has arrived, it will probably be time for them to get married.
Qiao Lian'er had just returned from the Ouyang family. She entered the Ouyang family's secret room and saw some scrolls and secrets that could not be revealed to others.
