Upon hearing this, Rong Yiyi exclaimed with an exaggerated expression, "You've only been talking for a short while, and you can already tell that he's not bad?"
Xie Jingyi blushed and hurriedly explained, "It's a feeling. I feel he's a good person."
Looking at her like this, Rong Yiyi scoffed inwardly, thinking, "What a fool."
"So, you're planning to obediently marry him?"
Xie Jingyi lowered her head. "What else can we do? The marriage is decided by the family."
“If you don’t like it, you can resist,” Rong Yiyi said. “Do you want to be ashamed for the rest of your life?”
"What do you mean?" Xie Jingyi looked at her, puzzled.
"Xue Shaoqian is a cripple. What future do you have if you marry him? Do you want to be pointed at and gossiped about every time you go out after marrying him?"
Xie Jingyi frowned.
She originally thought the same way when she learned that she was to marry Xue Shaoqian, but for some reason, after talking to him for a few minutes, she felt that he wasn't so bad after all.
Hearing Rong Yiyi say those words about him, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"At worst, I won't go out," she said somewhat defiantly.
Seeing this, Rong Yiyi stopped talking and said, "Marriage is a big deal, it concerns your whole life. You should think it over carefully. Whether you live well or not is your own business. I'm just giving you some advice as a friend. I came to see you today to say goodbye."
"Saying goodbye?" Xie Jingyi was taken aback, and the slight displeasure in her heart dissipated. "Where are you going?"
Rong Yiyi said bitterly, "I have nowhere else to go. It just so happens that Prince Xu is going to Xuzhou to take up his fiefdom tomorrow, so I will go with him to Xuzhou."
"How come you have nowhere to go?" Xie Jingyi frowned. After all, the two had been friends for so many years, and seeing her like this, she asked anxiously, "Has someone bullied you?"
Rong Yiyi gripped her skirt tightly at her knees, which still ached. Facing Xie Jingyi's concern, she said with a restrained expression, "Never mind, I'm leaving the capital tomorrow anyway. I'm just a little reluctant to part with you."
Xie Jingyi asked, "Did Rong Qingqing do something again?"
Rong Yiyi seemed to have been touched on a sore spot, and tears streamed down her face. "Jingyi, please don't ask anymore. I don't want to talk about it."
"Didn't you say we're good friends? How could you keep something from me?" Xie Jingyi said anxiously.
"Sigh..." Rong Yiyi sighed deeply, her face showing emotion as she looked at Rong Qingqing's worried and anxious expression. After hesitating for a long time, she finally spoke helplessly, "I discovered Rong Qingqing's background, so I wanted to expose her to my grandmother. But I don't know what kind of spell she cast on my grandmother, she didn't believe me at all, and instead threatened to kick me out of the Rong family. After Rong Qingqing found out, she even resorted to dirty tricks, sending people to beat me up. My knee was injured when I was struggling..."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingyi remained surprisingly calm, showing no signs of agitation.
Upon seeing this, Rong Yiyi frowned slightly. In the past, upon hearing her say such a thing, she would have immediately stood up for herself.
But now, she was surprisingly calm.
She bit her lip and tugged at her hand. "Jingyi, what's wrong? Don't you believe what I said?"
Xie Jingyi shook her head, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Actually, I already knew about this."
"What?" Rong Yiyi's eyes widened. "How did you know? Why didn't you tell me?"
