Chapter 463 Men Know Men Best
Lin Jingyao stayed with Song Yuntang in Hougu Village for three days. Seeing that she was unhappy every day and did not like his approach and care, he proposed to take her to Hongjiang City for a trip.
Although it is not suitable to go out now as the month is late.
But if someone in Anyang County was looking for her, the only way she would be discovered was to run away.
Otherwise, the chances of being found hiding in this inconspicuous mountain village would be very slim.
After a little thought, Song Yuntang agreed.
Lin Jingyao was delighted to see that Song Yuntang agreed. He quickly told Awang to pack up his things and hired four strong men to make a simple sedan chair. Then he carried Song Yuntang to the official road leading to Hongjiang City.
After leaving Hougu Village this time, he had no intention of bringing Song Yuntang back here.
If she was willing to stay with him, he would rent a yard in Hongjiang City and place her there. He would go back to Cile Town first, and then when he returned to the capital, he would take her with him.
The sedan chair was carried to the official road, and the carriage arranged by Lin Jingyao was already waiting on the roadside.
Song Yuntang was helped onto the carriage and headed for Hongjiang City.
Lin Jingyao looked at her and said, "When we get to Hongjiang City, what would you like to eat and play?"
Song Yuntang gently stroked her pregnant belly.
"I'm still pregnant, so there's no need to play."
"Where's the food?" Lin Jingyao asked again.
Song Yuntang thought for a moment and said, "I wonder if Mingyue Tower has opened in Hongjiang City. I kind of want to eat Mingyue Tower's roast duck."
After the birthday banquet of Old Madam Yang, Lin Jingyao guessed that Mingyue Tower was Song Yuntang’s property, so he certainly would not bring Song Yuntang to Mingyue Tower.
However, Song Yuntang seldom made requests to him on weekdays, so this time when he asked for roast duck, he certainly would not refuse.
"I'll ask Awang to buy a good place to live when we get back."
Song Yuntang was not polite either.
"Give me some shredded green onions, shredded cucumbers, thin flatbreads, and dipping sauce." After a pause, he added, "Also a small dish of balsamic vinegar and a cup of taro ball milk tea."
I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I really miss it.
Besides, she only orders shredded green onions and cucumbers every time she goes there. If Shopkeeper Miao and Chef Zhang happen to be in Hongjiang City, they might be able to find something.
Seeing that she was so interested in food, Lin Jingyao smiled gently.
"I didn't expect that Tang'er has done so much research on eating."
Song Yuntang glanced in his direction.
"Only six days left."
Hearing this, the smile on Lin Jingyao's face suddenly disappeared.
He clenched his fists.
"You don't need to remind me, Tang'er. I know what I'm doing."
Song Yuntang nodded, "It's good that you know."
Because of this episode, the two stopped talking. Song Yuntang just felt a little awkward sitting in the same car with Lin Jingyao, so he would occasionally lift the car curtain to look at the blurry scenery outside.
At this moment, they were still in Yingshan City. In order to prevent someone outside who knew Song Yuntang from appearing, Lin Jingyao began to divert her attention.
"Tang'er, do you want to bet with me again?"
Song Yuntang paused, lowered the car window curtains and looked at him.
"What's the bet?"
Lin Jingyao crossed his arms over his chest, "I bet on whether Xu Qingye will accept the daughter of the Prime Minister while you are away."
Song Yuntang didn't even think about it and said subconsciously, "No need to bet, I know he won't do that."
Lin Jingyao put down his arms.
"Are you so confident?"
Song Yuntang nodded, "I believe him."
After saying that, he opened the carriage curtain again and felt the cool mountain breeze blowing in from outside the carriage.
Lin Jingyao glanced in her direction, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
"I think Xu Qingye might disappoint Tang'er this time. A few months ago, the Xu and Song families probably thought you were gone. Although Xu Qingye was far away in the capital and didn't know the news from Anyang County, he must have known it now that he has returned to Anyang County. In this case, it is normal for Xu Qingye to have other ideas."
Hearing this, Song Yuntang frowned slightly and looked back at him.
"What did you do?"
Lin Jingyao did not hide it from her.
"After I found Zhao Zhao's body, I replaced your clothes with hers and destroyed her appearance. I received news in the capital before that the Xu family went to Rongshu Village and led your close relatives to the lower reaches of Cuihua River to pay homage. Now that Xu Qingye doesn't know you are still alive, it is normal for him to have other thoughts."
Song Yuntang clenched his fists, with anger in his eyes.
"Lin Jingyao, I didn't know you were so despicable and shameless!"
Lin Jingyao was unmoved by Song Yuntang's rebuke. "If not, how can we make them give up the idea of continuing to look for you?"
When Song Yuntang first heard that Lin Jingyao asked Lin Zhaozhao to impersonate her, she was indeed very angry, but after changing her mind, she quickly calmed down.
Although she and Xu Qingye had only been a real couple for ten days, they had been together day and night for such a long time that she knew him quite well, and he knew her just as well.
After he comes back, he will definitely ask for the whole story clearly. As long as there is a loophole, he should be able to find it quickly. With his IQ, he should not even identify the wrong corpse.
Unless he doesn't want to find it at all.
If that were the case, it wouldn't matter to her whether she went back or not, or whether he would accept the daughter of the prime minister.
Thinking of this, she suddenly smiled.
"Even so, I won't gamble with our relationship. I believe he will wait for me to come back."
Lin Jingyao clenched his fists, his eyes tinged with anger, but he endured it and did not vent his anger on Song Yuntang.
"Tang'er, you are so clear-headed, but why do you put your hope on a man? Do you know how fickle men are in the world? If you keep going like this, you will get hurt."
In his opinion, men understand men best.
If Xu Qingye wants to enter officialdom in the future, it will not be possible for him to do so cleanly. With his ability, there will definitely be many officials who will send girls into his backyard. Now he and Tang'er have a good relationship because they have been married for a short time and are in love. Who knows that there will be no girl who will catch his eye in the future?
It is better to bet on a pig climbing a tree than to bet on a man being loyal.
But Tang'er grew up under his care, and no matter how bad the relationship between them is, there is still a brother-sister relationship between them, which is different from that of others.
