"Xiao Yize is indeed not good enough. I just used him to fill in the gaps. I didn't really want to choose him. I just wanted to say that I can choose whoever I want."

Song Ruozhen regretted her words a little afterward; saying something about Xiao Yize was embarrassing for her. But she still held her head high and spoke with righteous indignation:

"Besides, Young Master Xu is far better than him. He is of noble character and talented, and countless young ladies in the capital admire him..."

"Just because other girls like them, you like them too? Don't you have any thoughts of your own? How can you just believe whatever others say?"

Chu Junting frowned, his voice quickening unconsciously, annoyed by the woman's casual attitude.

"How could I not have made a judgment? I haven't agreed yet!"

Song Ruozhen looked completely bewildered. If someone else had said that, she would have assumed that the other person was jealous because they liked her. But who was Chu Junting?

A flower unattainable on a high mountain, a lonely king who died alone!

“There are plenty of handsome and talented young men in the city. I will choose my husband carefully, Your Highness, so please rest assured,” Song Ruozhen said.

Choose?

She still needs to choose carefully?

"I never worry about others, but your judgment is really terrible. Otherwise, you wouldn't have chosen Lin Zhiyue in the first place. If you make the wrong choice again this time, I'm afraid you'll regret it!"

Chu Junting thought of Lin Zhiyue, whom he had just met, who was full of lies and colluded with Qin Shuangshuang.

This scumbag wasted two whole years of Song Ruozhen's time, and even when the engagement was called off, he still tried to frame her for everything!

Fortunately, her personality has changed now; otherwise, if she had married into the Lin family, a place that devours people without spitting out their bones, she would have died soon.

"My judgment is much better now than it was before. Putting aside everything else, Young Master Xu is much better than Lin Zhiyue!"

"Whether in terms of character, family background, or personality, he is far superior to Lin Zhiyue. What happened before will definitely not happen again!" Song Ruozhen said matter-of-factly.

"You keep calling me Young Master Xu. Do you think he's the only man you know who's the best? And that I'm just a decoration?" Chu Junting couldn't help but say.

Song Ruozhen glanced at Chu Junting in surprise. Why was he comparing himself to Xu He'an?

Chu Junting paused for a moment after speaking, this was not his usual style, and a hint of unease flashed across his face. Just as he was about to explain, he heard the woman's soft voice:

“The Prince is naturally more outstanding than Young Master Xu; isn’t that common knowledge in the capital?” Song Ruozhen asked with a strange expression. “Why do we have to compare these things?”

Chu Junting was exceptionally talented from a young age, standing out among all the princes. His talent and martial arts skills were unparalleled; otherwise, he wouldn't have become the unattainable white moonlight of the women in the original book.

She knew of Chu Junting's excellence from their first meeting; in this book, he is like the bright moon hanging high in the sky, impeccable in every way.

Although Xu He'an is outstanding, he is undoubtedly far behind Chu Junting.

Seeing the woman's matter-of-fact expression, Chu Junting's irritation instantly subsided, and he unconsciously slowed his speech, asking again with a hint of confirmation:

"Do you really think I'm better than him?"

"Of course." Song Ruozhen nodded, inwardly amused. Was she asking for praise?

"The prince is like the moon among the stars and clouds in the sky, and no ordinary person can match him. Everyone knows this."

As Chu Junting listened, he sensed something was amiss and was about to speak when Yun Yang's voice suddenly rang out:

"Your Highness, the Song family's carriage has caught up."

Upon hearing the sound, Song Ruozhen lifted the curtain of the carriage and, as expected, saw her own carriage. It seemed that her third brother had come to pick her up.

Since the Bai family has already left, she can go back now.

As the carriage came to a stop, Song Zhiyu walked quickly over and bowed to Chu Junting, "Your Highness, I've come to fetch my fifth sister."

Chu Junting nodded, glanced at the woman beside him, and said, "Then you should go back first."

"My lord, take your leave."

Song Ruozhen responded and turned to leave.

"By the way, there's no need to rush that matter. We still need to keep our eyes open," Chu Junting added, still concerned.

"I understand, thank you, Your Highness."

Song Ruozhen nodded, and seeing that the man had nothing more to say, she followed Song Zhiyu into the carriage without turning her head.

One thing after another happened tonight; normally, she would have been asleep long ago.

Chu Junting watched the woman's decisive departure, his tongue pressed against his teeth, and suddenly chuckled. This girl really left decisively!

Yunyang carefully observed his master's reaction, and was also shocked.

In the past, the girl was the only one who could watch the prince leave from afar. When had the prince ever watched the girl's departing figure like this?

"Your Highness, do you like Miss Song?" Yunyang asked tentatively.

Chu Junting glanced at him indifferently, his icy aura carrying an intimidating pressure, but when Yun Yang saw that the prince did not stop him from continuing, he immediately understood.

"Young Master Xu expressed his feelings in front of so many people today, and it seems that Madam Song is quite satisfied with him as well."

Ever since Miss Song helped Madam Xu find her daughter, the Xu family and the Song family have become very close. With the matchmaking of the two mothers, things will surely go much more smoothly.

If Your Highness takes a liking to Miss Song, you must hurry up and seize the opportunity!

Yunyang couldn't help but worry about his prince. Over the years, he had never seen the prince like any girl.

Now that we've finally come across this, we absolutely can't miss it!

Chu Junting frowned, recalling Song Ruozhen's attitude earlier. She had already mentioned Xu He'an, and even Xiao Yize, but she hadn't mentioned him at all.

Could it be that... they haven't seen each other often enough, so she hasn't thought about it?

"Let's go back." Chu Junting withdrew his gaze and got into the carriage.

Yunyang: "???" That's it?

Upon arriving at the Chu Prince's residence, Chu Junting pondered for a moment and asked, "Yunyang, are there any interesting places to visit in the capital recently?"

Yun Yang's eyes lit up. "Your Highness wants to ask where Miss Song might like to go, right?"

Chu Junting glanced at him, and he instantly suppressed his smile, saying respectfully:

"In a few days, after the results of the imperial examinations are announced, there will be a temple fair and a lantern parade in the capital. It will be very lively, and Miss Song will surely be interested."

……

Song family.

When Song Ruozhen and Song Zhiyu returned, they found that their mother had not rested yet, and it was not difficult to guess what she wanted to say just from her eyes.

"Zhen'er, you heard what Young Master Xu said today. What do you think?"

Liu Ruyan smiled. Xu He'an was far superior to Xu He'an, and Madam Xu also liked Zhen'er. If she married into the family, she probably wouldn't suffer.

“Mother, I have only met Young Master Xu a few times, it is too early to talk about these things.”

Song Ruozhen waved her hand and put her hands on Liu Ruyan's shoulders to send her back, saying, "It's getting dark, you should go back to your room and rest."

Liu Ruyan chuckled, "Alright, alright, Mother, go back and rest first, but you must keep this matter in mind."

Xu He'an is a rare and fine young man; if you are truly interested, don't miss this opportunity.

Song Ruozhen wanted to say that she had no intention of getting married at all, but thinking that if she said that, her mother probably wouldn't be able to sleep that night, she just casually brushed it off.

"Mother, please rest. I'm exhausted, so I'll head back now."
