Chapter 57 You don’t like Ling Buyi, do you?
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear. He saw a handsome young man running towards him, dressed like a scholar, with some childishness and uneasiness, and bowed to him.
"Your Highness the Third Prince, I just heard you mention me and the Lou family. Do you have any advice for me?" Lou Yao glanced at Wen Ziduan uneasily, not knowing whether he should sit down.
When He Zhaojun heard that this pet Pomeranian could actually talk to Wen Ziduan instead of hiding away in fear, she knew that he had made great progress and was happy.
"Mr. Lou, what's the matter that you're looking for me?" He Zhaojun stood up and looked at Lou Yao expectantly.
Lou Yao returned the greeting, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "...you told me about Master Wu's Journey to the West. Last time, you mentioned that Elder Tang passed by the Kingdom of Women and was forced into marriage by the king. What happened next?"
Wen Ziduan looked at Lou Yao in disbelief, then at He Zhaojun. He had originally thought she had told this story only to him, but he hadn't expected Lou Yao to be involved in it, too.
"What else can I do? Elder Tang will naturally..." Fortunately, his progress was faster than Lou Yao's. Wen Ziduan wanted to tell Lou Yao the ending of the story directly, but he didn't expect to be stopped by He Zhaojun.
"Third Prince, spoilers are immoral!" He Zhaojun smiled brightly and began to tease Lou Yao: "Ahem, if you want to hear the story, can you give me some money?"
Lou Yao saw the golden hairpin on the table and mistakenly thought it was a "gift" from the Third Prince to listen to the following. She subconsciously hid the thing in her hand behind her back and avoided his gaze. She glanced at the silver hairpin in Lou Yao's hand and raised the corner of her mouth: "Second Young Master Lou, is that a gift for me?!"
He Zhaojun noticed his embarrassment, but she remained calm. After all, she had long known that Lou Yaoxun was going to give this silver hairpin to Shao Shang. He Zhaojun always preferred pure gold, while Shao Shang preferred silver jewelry, but she did not expose their differences at this moment.
Lou Yao quickly hummed a yes and handed the silver hairpin to He Zhaojun with both hands. Seeing that she didn't take it, he felt even more uneasy, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
He Zhaojun's face darkened. "Second Master Lou, how can there be only one? Shao Shang and I are like sisters, how can I accept this gift alone? You should give the gift to Shao Shang's younger sister. If she thinks I left her to see you alone and that I'm alienated from her, I won't forgive you!"
Lou Yao's brows lit up when he heard this. He had specially found this silver hairpin, and it was the perfect match for Shao Shang. If he just gave it to He Zhaojun... But Zhaojun's understanding nature made him feel uneasy. "...Okay, then I'll definitely give you something better someday."
After saying that, he ran away, looking around, obviously looking for Shao Shang.
Wen Ziduan snorted coldly, "You're quite generous. You knew your son-in-law had someone else in his heart, but not only did you not stop him, you pushed him away, fearing that he would have a quarrel with his good sister."
"No, Shao Shang had already let it go the moment he agreed to cancel the engagement. Second Young Master Lou is a devoted and affectionate person. It's only natural that he would be attracted to Shao Shang and unable to get over it in a short period of time. If he quickly changes his mind and falls in love with someone else, it would make me feel that this person is as cold as iron and cannot be trusted."
"You're always finding excuses for him, but you don't even have any personal feelings for him. After all, how can someone truly in love tolerate sharing their feelings with others? Just look at the jealous, suspicious, and envious Concubine Crown Prince all day long."
He Zhaojun chuckled, "Why, from the Third Prince's tone, there's actually a hint of envy? Could it be that no woman is willing to compete for the Third Prince's affections, so in your heart, you are extremely envious of the Crown Prince and General Ling?"
Wen Ziduan concealed the emotion in his eyes, not wanting He Zhaojun to see it at all: "I have caused countless women to be obsessed with me and torn apart by my heart. This is certainly not the reason."
It's not because of the girl? He Zhaojun was shocked: Could it be because of some man?
