Ouyang Yi said, "I didn't come here to disturb Miss Zhizhi, but just to ask if there's anything I can do to help."
Qiao Zhizhi looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"That's right. I've bothered you a lot before, which has led to some improvement in my painting. I'm very grateful to Miss Zhizhi and want to do something for you."
“Young Master Ouyang, you’re too kind. You’ve enrolled in my class and are learning to paint with me. I’ll use my experience to explain things to you; it’s my duty.”
Qiao Zhizhi nodded to him, her eyes indifferent: "Thank you for your kindness."
Then he left with Lin Songyan.
For the past two days, she had been wondering if the letter that flew into the courtyard was written by Ouyang Yi. Although the handwriting didn't match, it was entirely possible that he had someone write it.
The Qiao and Lin families are currently going through all the procedures for their wedding. The Ouyang family, who have ulterior motives, will naturally make many moves.
Qiao Zhizhi had shown the letter to Lin Songyan, which is why Lin Songyan was so alarmed just now, and he also suspected Ouyang Yi.
"My men who went to Tianhe Prefecture have reported back that Princess Zhenguo is well and busy making various plans to govern Tianhe Prefecture."
“I told you, Sister Lian’er won’t get into trouble easily,” Qiao Zhizhi said.
Ouyang Yi was puzzled. Qiao Zhizhi had told him earlier not to worry, in a very confident and unconcerned manner.
She needs some definite news to feel at ease.
However, he didn't ask any further questions. He had heard that the Princess Zhenguo possessed some special abilities that were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, not everything in this world can be explained.
A burst of laughter came from across the street. It was Sun Hetang and her two friends strolling through the evening market, with servants behind them carrying large and small bags of things.
“He Tang, look! It’s that young master Lin, who almost became your fiancé.” A noblewoman nudged Sun He Tang’s elbow.
Sun Hetang's gaze fell on Lin Songyan's face, then looked at Qiao Zhizhi, and his smile turned into mockery.
Lin Songyan had initially avoided her, not wanting to marry her, but after learning that he had a deficiency, the Lin family wanted her to be the scapegoat.
It was like a dream. Luckily, the Sun family had arranged a marriage with the Wu family, otherwise she would have been really worried that the Lin family would keep bothering her.
She felt a surge of relief, as if she had finally gotten her revenge.
I approached you because I thought you were worthy. Now you are not worthy. Your former superiority has become a joke.
"Alas, life is truly unpredictable. No one knows what will happen in the future. For example, someone might be arrogant and look down on others, only to end up being unable to have children. What future does such a person have? It would be a disgrace to the family."
“There are people who are willing to remain childless for life for the sake of the Lin family’s power. It’s utterly undignified. I can’t be so humble.”
Sun Hetang is insulting both Lin Songyan and Qiao Zhizhi.
"Whether I can have children or not is none of your business. Did they ask you to have children? You came to me on your own. Nobody forced you." Qiao Zhizhi retorted calmly, without getting angry or annoyed.
"The Lin family wants me to give birth, but do you think I'm willing? After the third young master of the Lin family was diagnosed with a deficiency, the Lin family wanted to come to me and invite my father to plead for him. Fortunately, my father was shrewd and refused to visit the Lin family. Otherwise, he might have been deceived by their sweet words."
Her family told her not to talk about it, saying they didn't want to break ties with the Lin family and that it would have a negative impact on her. But what impact could it have? The resentment she had been suppressing was finally released at this moment.
