Jiang Qingyue's eyes flickered slightly as she subtly probed.
Mentioning this matter, Feng Zhiwen frowned deeply, his tone revealing resentment: "I saw it."
Hearing the unpleasantness in his tone, Jiang Qingyue's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, and a hint of sadness appeared on her face: "Actually, I don't really blame her. I just can't understand how our friendship of so many years could have come to this."
Seeing her dejected look, Feng Zhiwen pursed his lips and said, "Miss Jiang, you're just too kind! She treated you like this, and you still think about our past relationship!"
He gritted his teeth. "I can see that my cousin and aunt listen to her every word, which shows that she is good at putting on an act!"
Jiang Qingyue's eyes dimmed slightly, and she sighed with regret: "Tang Ning comes from a high-ranking family and has been very good at cultivating her reputation since childhood. With her ambition, she was supposed to join a prestigious family, but who would have thought that things would turn out differently..."
Feng Zhiwen frowned: "So, she clearly had a better choice, why did she marry my cousin?"
"Well..." Jiang Qingyue hesitated, "I only overheard her mention it by chance, but you mustn't tell anyone else, lest it hurt their relationship."
“Miss Jiang, please speak freely.” Feng Zhiwen immediately perked up.
"Tang Ning means that the Second Young Master Chi is gentle by nature, and the Second Madam Chi is also a kind person. If she marries into the family, she can take charge." She paused slightly, her expression a little unnatural. "Besides, living under the same roof, she and the Young Master Chi can see each other often..."
"What?!" Feng Zhiwen's eyes widened in disbelief. "She and that prince are still entangled?"
What became of his cousin?
What a sucker!
Jiang Qingyue sighed softly: "After all, it's a childhood friendship, how can it be severed so easily? I think the reason why Prince Chi has been so slow to marry is probably because of this."
Feng Zhiwen gritted his teeth in anger, wanting to unleash a torrent of curses:
Those two scoundrels!
Jiang Qingyue bit her lip, noticing his unpleasant expression, and quickly comforted him, "That's all in the past. Now that Young Master Chi has become the top scholar and has a bright future ahead of him, Tang Ning shouldn't be so stubborn anymore. I'm only saying this to you, so please don't leak it out, otherwise Tang Ning will definitely blame me!"
Feng Zhiwen's face was grim, and he tried his best to suppress his emotions: "Don't worry, Miss Jiang, I won't put you in a bad position! On the contrary, I should thank you for reminding me, otherwise..."
His cousin was murdered one day, and the killer is still unknown!
...
Feng Zhiwen stormed off, and Jiang Qingyue watched his figure disappear into the distance, a slight smile playing on her lips.
Even if this idiot can't drive a wedge between the couple, it's still good if he can cause Shen Tangning some trouble.
Why is she suffering here while Shen Tangning has everything going smoothly?
The maid asked, puzzled, "Miss, Young Master Feng just said he could rescue you, why didn't you agree?"
This Baiyun Temple is no place for a human to stay. Didn't Miss want to leave a long time ago?
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Jiang Qingyue's eyes: "Men, the unattainable is always the best. Besides, if he betroths me as a wife and then makes me a concubine, what would that mean if I actually went with him?"
Jiang Qingyue narrowed her eyes, still feeling extremely unwilling.
Feng Zhiwen is nothing more than a merchant with no official rank or title, and he reeks of money. If she hadn't been desperate, why would she have taken a fancy to such a person?
"However, I've heard that the Feng family is the richest family in Jiangzhou, with immense wealth. If Miss really marries into that family, it won't be a bad deal for her!"
Hearing the maid's sighs, Jiang Qingyue's heart stirred slightly.
