Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

Mrs. Cang and Cang Jing came to the house as promised the next day.

Sun also appeared in front of everyone in neatly dressed. Song Yang pulled Song Zhi aside and whispered, "I know you have a grudge against your mother, but she begged me for a long time last night, and I really couldn't bear to refuse. Besides, it wouldn't be appropriate for your mother, as the mistress of the Song family, not to show up."

Song Zhi didn't think there was anything wrong with this. She had already drawn a clear line between herself and Sun in her heart, and she didn't feel anything when she thought about Sun's favoritism.

Sun looked at her cautiously, wanting to come over and talk to her, but hesitated and didn't go forward.

Madam Cang is a woman who looks very smart and capable. She is older than Madam Sun, but she is well maintained and it can be seen that she was also a great beauty when she was young.

The material of her clothes was very expensive, and the gifts she brought for visiting people alone filled an entire carriage, which was very consistent with her status as the richest person.

Cang Jian is a typical rich kid. He looks good and is a handsome type. Although he is much inferior to Mu Nanqi, he is also a handsome young man.

Song Yang was very considerate and asked Song Zhi to take Cang Jian around the mansion. He was afraid that she would not agree, and his pleading eyes almost materialized.

Song Zhi had no way to refuse and had to accept his fate.

The yard is full of greenery, the newly sprouted leaves are full of vitality, and thumb-sized green fruits can already be seen on many fruit trees.

Song Zhi sat in the pavilion, gazing across at Cang Qiong, who was shaking his legs, eating sunflower seeds, and playfully harassing Xiao Tao. "Calm and dignified? Humble and polite?"

Across from her, Cang Qiong raised his eyelids and gave her a defiant look, "Yes, that's me you're talking about."

Song Zhi admired Cang Qiong's thick skin and said straight to the point, "I have no plans to get married at the moment."

"Do not worry."

Cang Qiong tossed a grape up and ate it. "This young master knows you're from Nanqi, but my mother said that if I don't come today, I won't be able to use the family banknotes in the future. Listen to how vicious this threat is. I have no choice but to endure the humiliation and pretend."

When he heard Mu Nanqi's name, Song Zhi's mouth corners unconsciously rose slightly.

Cang Qiong gossiped, "Honestly, what is your relationship with Nan Qi? I've been with him for so many years and I've never seen a woman around him."

Song Zhi deliberately whetted his appetite and said calmly, "Want to know?"

Cang Jian nodded sincerely.

Song Zhi dragged out his tone and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."

Cang Qiong's face was immediately filled with disappointment, but in order to avoid being outdone, he shook his legs even more vigorously and said nonchalantly, "Tsk, you want to tell me something I don't want to hear. And the secrets can't be revealed. From what I know about Nan Qi, you two are just partners at best."

Song Zhi pursed his lips and smiled without saying anything.

Cang Qiong snorted proudly and turned his attention back to Xiao Tao. "Hey, little girl, your master is always being mysterious. Aren't you tired of following her? How about I buy you back and let you follow me?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Tao, "Don't worry, follow me and I'll make sure you have everything you need."

There was a ‘pop’ sound.

Before Cang Jing's hand touched Xiao Tao, Song Zhi slapped him away.

"If you don't want your claws anymore, try touching her."

There was a dangerous glint in Song Zhi's eyes, and he didn't look like he was joking at all.

"Miss..." Xiao Tao was moved.

"I won't let anyone bully you." Song Zhi said seriously.

Cang Qiong withdrew his hand angrily, "You two should stop for a moment, I was just joking, it's not that serious."

In fact, even if Song Zhi hadn't pushed him away, he wouldn't have really touched the girl. He still had some sense of propriety.

Everyone who knows him knows that he just likes to talk, but in fact he has never been in contact with any woman in his life.

Song Zhi glared at him and said, "Don't make jokes that aren't funny."

Cang Qiong scratched his head and muttered quietly, "Why do he have two faces? He didn't look so serious before."

Last time he clearly saw her smiling and acting cute to Mu Nanqi.

"What are you saying?" Song Zhi didn't hear clearly.

"No, no, just go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about me." Cang Jing waved his hands repeatedly.

Song Zhi didn't delve into it further. The two of them sat in the pavilion for a while, and then Cang Jing took Madam Cang away, saying that he had something else to do.

At the gate of the mansion, Song Yang looked at the speeding carriage with doubt and asked Song Zhi, "Are you two attracted to each other?"

"what?"

Song Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then a sad expression suddenly appeared on his face. "Yes, Young Master Cang doesn't like me."

"He said that his family is extremely wealthy, rich enough to rival an entire nation, and that he wants to marry Princess Tianqi at the very least. My father has been demoted to a mere minister, and is absolutely unworthy of him."

Song Zhi fabricated the story as he pleased, and silently apologized to Cang Jing in his heart.

When Song Yang heard this, he was furious and said "how unreasonable" three times in a row.

"His mother is so graceful and knows how to act appropriately, how could she raise such a rebellious son? No, I have to ask the Cang family. My daughter is both beautiful and talented, how can she not be worthy of his son?"

Song Yang was about to ask the housekeeper to prepare the carriage. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. "If they hadn't mentioned your marriage first, I wouldn't have arranged this today. Young Master Cang is making it seem like we're the ones taking the initiative. That's really going too far."

Song Zhi was startled, knowing that she was exaggerating, and quickly stopped him, "Dad, calm down, calm down, I was just joking just now. Actually, Young Master Cang... um... has something to hide, so he deliberately let me say this to cut off any future marriage plans."

Song Yang stopped doubtfully, "Unspeakable secret?"

Song Zhi deliberately looked around, and when he saw no one was passing by, he whispered in Song Yang's ear: "Young Master Cang is a homosexual, he doesn't like women."

"What?!" Song Yang was stunned.

Song Zhi nodded earnestly, "He likes men. Otherwise, have you ever seen a young master who is so old but has no women around him?"

Of course, except Mu Nanqi.

"This……"

Song Yang sighed heavily and said with some regret: "He is confused."

Song Zhi said earnestly, "Dad, Madam Cang doesn't know about this yet, so don't let it slip in the future."

At the same time, they didn't know that in the Cang family's carriage, Cang Qiong leaned close to Madam Cang's ear with a mysterious look on his face and said seriously, "This Miss Song has a secret. She doesn't like men."

"Mrs. Sun doesn't know about this yet, so please don't let it slip later."

Later, whenever the elders met, they could always see the sympathy in each other's eyes that was about to be expressed but could not.

After Song Zhi's questioning, he learned that Song Yang met Madam Cang and Master Cang when he took Sun to a banquet. The four of them hit it off immediately and talked about poetry and songs and their children who were still unmarried. So they hit it off and had the idea of ​​bringing them together.

In the end, ideas are always less cruel than reality, and this idea died in the womb as soon as it arose.

The meeting ended in nothing, and Song Zhi happily prepared to return to Qingfeng Courtyard. When she turned around, she saw Sun standing not far away, looking at her with red eyes.

Song Zhi's eyes never fell on her once today, as if she didn't exist.
