Before Qianmi could finish speaking, she seemed to suddenly see something, froze, and then subconsciously took a step back.
"Taoist Master? What's wrong?" Qi Ruyu stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him.
"No, Miss Qi is born with a life of wealth and nobility, and her life will be smooth and carefree. I shall take my leave now." After saying this, Qian Mi left immediately, and very quickly at that.
Qi Ruyu felt bewildered. Why did he suddenly seem like a different person? Did he see something in her? Why was he so panicked?
"Could there be something wrong with me?" Qi Ruyu was so frightened that she quickly checked herself, but she seemed to be quite healthy and there was nothing wrong with her.
His reaction was a little unsettling. Should I ask someone else to take a look at my face? No, no, no, most of those people are scammers.
To be honest, before Madam Zishu told Qi Ruyu about Qianmi, Qi Ruyu thought he was no different from those charlatans, just a bunch of swindlers.
After listening, I really felt that the other person was different; it was truly amazing.
…
After leaving Zishu Mansion, Qianmi looked down at her palms and found they were sweaty.
He just... he actually saw the red thread connecting him and the young princess. What's going on? He didn't even mention that he would be going through a love tribulation this time.
That's enough. Once this is over, I'll leave Yunzhou and find a way to sever my ties with the princess. Otherwise, even if I never appear in front of the princess again, she'll probably never find a good man in this life.
…
Madam Zishu wanted Wan Ge to stay a few more days, and also advised Zishu to find Wan Ge another place to stay. What kind of place would it be for an unmarried girl to be by his side? Did she not care about her reputation as a young lady?
She advised the child that if he truly liked her, he should respect and cherish her, and provide her with another place to live.
Wan Ge didn't really like them, but if her mother-in-law disliked the stories she had read, it would cause a lot of conflicts and misunderstandings in the future. So she didn't dare to say anything and just stood silently by.
…
The next morning, after breakfast, Lady Zishu was also curious about what the two of them had been doing together, so she went to see what it was all about.
Then they saw Wan Ge grinding ink for Zi Shu Yan, while Zi Shu Yan picked up his brush as if he were painting.
To be honest, her son is also very handsome. The two of them standing together are a perfect match, and it's quite pleasing to the eye.
That's right. If we don't know Wan Ge's background, Madam Zishu is really worried about such a beautiful woman. She's afraid that she might really bewitch her son, and if the other woman isn't a good person, then their family will have a lot of trouble in the future.
After finishing the painting, Zishu Yan's gaze fell on the zither beside him: "Can you play the guqin?"
Wan Ge shook her head: "I know how to do this. My brother taught me before."
"Then would you play me a tune?" Zishu Yan asked again.
Wan Ge nodded, and after sitting down, her fingertips landed on the strings. A moving and elegant sound flowed from her fingertips. The piece was one that Madam Zishu had never heard before, but it sounded serene and refined, unlike what one would expect from a courtesan.
Honestly, Wan Ge is very beautiful, with a striking, almost aggressive beauty—the kind that makes you instantly notice her stunning looks. But she's not vulgar at all; she has a refined, elegant air about her, and her demeanor doesn't seem to come from those places.
If she truly comes from a respectable and upright family, Madam Zishu would agree to their marriage.
