"I just drank some tea and I'm not sleepy anymore. I can chat with you guys for a while. It's rare that we have good tea today."

Chu Lingfeng's face darkened and he continued to comfort her.

"I still have some tea in my brother's room. You can drink it anytime you want. I see your eyes are bloodshot. Listen to me and go back to rest. We can talk tomorrow if there's anything else."

This is equivalent to hinting that Chu Weiyue should leave, and more than once.

Chu Weiyue was not a fool, so he naturally understood.

But she pretended not to understand anything and continued to drink tea from the cup while muttering to herself.

"Brother, I'm not sleepy at all. Seeing you two here, I want to chat with you. What did you talk about just now? I see you two are chatting so enthusiastically."

She cast her gaze upon Lin Zixi, and finally looked at her brother.

Lin Zixi was very calm, but Chu Lingfeng's eyes were full of depression and impatience. He knew at a glance that she was the only one who was interested in the other person.

No matter what the two of them wanted to talk about, Chu Weiyue would always interrupt.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, a little girl came.

"Miss Lin, grandma wants you to come over. She said she needs you to help her trim some flowers."

Only then did Lin Zixi stand up from his seat.

"You guys chat slowly, I'm leaving first." She deliberately smiled softly at Chu Lingfeng, shaking her slender waist and slowly left.

Chu Lingfeng watched her leaving with a look of regret on his face.

Chu Weiyue sneered coldly: "Brother, everyone has left, what are you looking at?"

Chu Lingfeng's face instantly became extremely gloomy, and he gently tapped Chu Weiyue's head.

"You are usually quite smart, why are you so unromantic now?"

Chu Weiyue snorted in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean I don't understand romance? Can't you see that she has no interest in you? You are basically pursuing her by doing this."

"But isn't it natural for a man to pursue a woman? Just like you pursuing Wen Jingchi, it's OK for you to do that, but it's not OK for me to do that?"

This sentence left Chu Weiyue speechless, as if his weakness had been exposed.

"But Wen Jingchi and I love each other, and now the emperor has granted us the marriage, so it can be considered a happy ending. I know the hard work involved, so I don't want you to follow my path, brother."

No matter how she tried to comfort him, Chu Lingfeng was determined to be with Lin Zixi and gestured to her to stop.

"Don't say any more. I have already made the decision. Besides, my brother is still quite young, and it is not easy for him to meet a girl he likes. Please help him out.

If this works, I will thank you for the rest of my life. Besides, Zixi is also a good girl, gentle, intelligent, and capable..."

The more he spoke, the more tender Chu Lingfeng's eyes became. In his eyes, Lin Zixi was simply a fairy from heaven, without a single flaw.

Chu Weiyue almost felt sick after hearing what he said. It really proved the saying that men’s love brains are even more extreme than women’s!

However, this also made Chu Weiyue wonder. His elder brother had been busy outside. Logically, he should not have met Lin Zixi very often.

His eldest brother had seen countless beauties. Although Lin Zixi was pretty, she was definitely not an outstanding beauty, so there was no question of love at first sight.

"I can help you, but you have to tell me honestly, how did you two meet, and how did you fall in love with her?"

Chu Weiyue pretended to be curious and puzzled, and her shrewd eyes lingered on Chu Lingfeng's face.

Chu Lingfeng is usually carefree, but when it comes to matters between men and women, he feels a little embarrassed.

"I can't explain it to you in a few words. Anyway, everything is fate, so I decided to follow fate. Anyway, you should help me more. With your intelligence, I believe you can help me deal with her and him!"

Because he had to leave in a hurry, Chu Lingfeng gently touched Chu Weiyue's head and gave her a beautiful hairpin.

Chu Weiyue shook the hairpin and clicked his tongue a few times. It was obvious that he was planning to give this hairpin to Lin Zixi, but he gave it to himself instead.

What kind of magic potion did Lin Zixi feed his big brother?

She knew very well that this woman was not as simple as she had imagined.

When I found out she was at her grandmother's, I went over there immediately.

After spending a whole day with her, I didn't hear anything from her heart. I had no choice but to start investigating from other aspects.

After asking the old housekeeper at home, he didn't know much and could only ask his grandmother indirectly.

Grandma didn't know much about Lin Zixi, she only knew that he was a distant relative.

In desperation, he could only ask Wen Jingchi for help and visit him in person.

Wen Jingchi just came back from outside and saw Chu Weiyue sitting in the hall drinking tea.

She sat in the main seat and didn't consider herself an outsider at all.

Wen Jingchi was already used to it, and walked towards her with big strides.

Chu Weiyue's eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped off the chair, strode to the side of Wen Jingchi, and grabbed his wrist.

"Why did you come back just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Her voice was a little coquettish, and had a charm that was hard to resist.

Wen Jingchi didn't push her away, but frowned a little depressed: "What do you want from me?"

After taking a look at the other people nearby, Wen Jingchi asked them all to go down.

But Chu Weiyue still didn't want to say anything and insisted on going back to the room with him.

With no other choice, he could only take Chu Weiyue to his room and sit on the bed by Wen Jingchi before he told her the purpose of his visit.

"I want you to help me investigate someone. Her name is Lin Zixi. She is a distant relative of my family. But I think this is strange. Why can a distant relative live in our house for so long?"

Wen Jingchi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why, when did your interest change to women?"

Chu Weiyue rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction and pulled his arm, shaking it gently.

"No woman can compare to you."

Wen Jingchi was a little uncomfortable with such teasing.

"Okay, why do you want me to investigate her?"

"It's all because of my brother. He actually wants to be with Lin Zixi, but I think this woman is very strange. I saw her sneaking out of the city alone in a carriage before, so I'm a little worried that my brother will fall into a trap. Please help me investigate, Your Majesty."

Chu Weiyue clasped his hands together, showing great sincerity.

Wen Jingchi narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's not impossible for you to ask me for help, but you have to understand the ways of the world."

His finger gently touched Chu Weiyue's chin.

Such an action is somewhat teasing.

Chu Weiyue was stunned for a moment. She never expected that Wen Jingchi would be so bold towards her, and she was secretly delighted in her heart.

If a man can do this to a woman, it means he is not disgusting.

She pitifully held his hands and asked, "What benefit do you want?"
