I thought Mu Nanqi would show a look of gratitude, but he was unmoved and had no reaction at all. His eyes were so deep that I couldn't see any emotion.

He did not take the purse, but turned around and left in a cold manner.

Song Zhi: ...

Wasn't her move just now cool enough?

This person is good in every way except for his bad temper. He either tells people to get lost or ignores them.

Just as they were about to catch up, a large group of guards suddenly appeared in front of them. They looked anxious, and only after seeing that Mu Nanqi was unharmed did they breathe a sigh of relief. They knelt down and said in unison: "Your Highness, we are late in protecting you. Please punish us."

Mu Nanqi waved his hand, and these people immediately retreated to the sides in a well-trained manner to make way for a passage.

He stopped with his back to Song Zhi, his high-tied black hair fell down, and his back looked unfathomable.

He didn't turn around, only a cold voice came out, "Mu Qinghan let a woman approach me, has it reached the point where there is no one else available?"

Damn it, he mistook her for Mu Qinghan’s.

Song Zhi was in a dilemma. She couldn't let her sincerity be ruined by that unlucky guy.

I quickly explained, "I have already broken off my engagement with Mu Qinghan. I have nothing to do with him now."

Mu Nanqi's eyes turned even colder. "To make me let down my guard, this deliberate quarrel is a good move."

Song Zhi was simply speechless, unable to express his bitterness. "I really am not Mu Qinghan's man. You can go and check. My father will not support him anymore."

Thinking of what he had seen and heard recently, Mu Nanqi's expression relaxed slightly.

He continued walking forward, "It's not too stupid to know when to cut your losses."

hiss~

Song Zhi's mouth twitched. Could it be that she had always had a very stupid image in his eyes?

Seeing that this man was unmoved, she took two steps forward and stood in front of Mu Nanqi, "I helped you get your purse back, and you don't even say thank you."

Mu Nanqi ignored her and pretended to walk around her and continue forward.

But Song Zhi just wouldn't let him have his way. When he went left, she also went left. When he went right, she also went right.

Unlike her curved eyebrows just now, her expression was stubborn and serious, and her clear eyes were full of his reflection.

Mu Nanqi's face darkened, and he was about to order her to be dragged away, but he clearly saw the grievance in her clear eyes.

Song Zhi just looked at him, "Mu Nanqi, you don't have to be so wary of me."

The gentle breeze of early spring blew past the two of them, causing their hair to flutter gently.

Although there were many people around, no one made any sound, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Of course, except for Xiaotao at the back corner.

Xiaotao didn't expect her young lady to be so bold. She stared at the scene in front of her with wide eyes and thought she was dreaming for a moment.

Our young lady is so brave that she dares to stop the cold and ruthless Third Prince!

She clenched her fingers more nervously than Song Zhi herself, fearing that Mu Nanqi, who was not interested in women, would slap Song Zhi away.

She was thinking, if the other party attacked now, would it be too late for her to rush over and protect her master?

But before Xiao Tao could figure out what was going on, Mu Nanqi spoke.

He did not slap Song Zhi away, but his deep eyes were dark and he uttered a few words in a cold voice.

"Why are you approaching me suddenly?"

Song Zhi also knew that her sudden action was very suspicious and abrupt. After all, at this time in her previous life, she and Mu Nanqi did not have much contact, and she was even wholeheartedly trying to win over court officials for Mu Qinghan.

But after being reborn, her heart had become so strong that she would not lose her composure at the slightest question from him.

She raised her head and looked at him again, a sly smile on her lips. "Why would you ask that? Isn't my purpose clear when I approach you like this?"

She paused and said crisply: "Mu Nanqi, I like you."

She spoke so casually, as if it was a normal thing.

Such frankness made Mu Nanqi, who was asking the question, a little at a loss for a moment.

He frowned and stared at Song Zhi, trying to see a hint of conspiracy on her face, but no matter how he looked, her eyes were full of sincerity and piety.

Mu Nanqi's heart moved, and he suddenly turned his eyes away and pretended to preach: "How can a girl say such words so easily? It's so shameless."

Song Zhi was dissatisfied. In his previous life, he wanted to elope with her, which was even more inappropriate. But now he would lecture her.

But who can blame her for being so generous? Let's just not worry about these details for now.

She narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Okay, okay, I won't say it, I'll keep it in my heart."

Mu Nanqi looked at her meaningfully, turned around and was about to leave.

Song Zhi did not stop him this time. She smiled happily at Mu Nanqi's back and said, "Aqi, see you at the prince's wedding banquet in three days. I will come to find you then."

Mu Nanqi's back stiffened and he quickened his pace to leave.

"It's actually quite cute."

Song Zhi's smile widened until the group walked away. Then Xiao Tao came to Song Zhi as if she had just survived a disaster and called out, "Miss."

"Well, let's go too."

"where to?"

"The clouds and water are vast."

There are still three days until Mu Qinghan and Song Yale's wedding, so she has to put the gifts for them on the agenda.

Song Zhi was very satisfied with achieving his goal of getting to know Mu Nanqi.

The master and servant walked through the alley and left the place. They didn't know that just after they left, a figure in ink-colored brocade clothes reappeared there.

Mu Nanqi, who had already left, stood there, lost in thought, watching the woman's retreating figure. Finally, he said, "Send someone to follow her."

"Yes."

A resounding answer came from the deserted alley.

……

Song Zhi came all the way to Yunshui Youyou. In fact, she had already felt that someone was following her all the way, but she didn't point it out.

Although she could only perform a few simple moves with her poor martial arts skills, her intuition was surprisingly sharp.

She guessed that this was someone sent by Mu Nanqi, so she didn't hide it.

Yunshui Youyou's business has been surprisingly good these past two days. Song Zhidu drank several cups of tea in the private room before Liu Ruoyu finally arrived.

Today she wore a golden dress, which made her look more bright and elegant.

The voice arrived before the person arrived, "Aren't you busy arranging a marriage for your cheap elder sister? How do you have time to come and see me?"

Song Zhi held his forehead and said, "Stop teasing me. You know my biased mother."

Liu Ruoyu obviously knew this as well. She sat down, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "It's strange. There are mothers in this world who don't love their own daughters, but instead love other people's daughters."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I know you're here to ask about the thing you told me before. Here~"

Liu Ruoyu put down her teacup and took out a list from her bosom and handed it over. "The girls in our building are all excellent. They may not have other skills, but they are good at extracting information from men."

The girls in Yunshui Youyou all come here voluntarily for various reasons. Once they come here, they are not accepted as guests. They need to go through many tests and selections before they can stay.

After they stay, they will be personally trained in both their talents and personalities to ensure their ability and loyalty.
