Chapter 791 It's good that I don't like my fourth brother.
In an instant, Song Zhiyu became a hot commodity.
He clearly had never been exposed to such a scene before. He had practiced martial arts for so many years and had rarely seen any girls, not to mention that he usually stayed in the mansion and always heard his mother complaining.
He's said to only have brute strength and no brains, so no girl would like him.
Hearing the praises around him, and even some bold girls saying they wished they could marry him, he was deeply moved.
what's the situation?
Song Ruozhen couldn't help but chuckle. Seeing her third brother's ears getting redder and redder, she knew he was embarrassed.
She said that her third brother rarely goes out and has no idea how popular he is.
Nowadays, the four brothers of the Song family are highly praised in the capital. There are many people who want to find a wife for the third brother, otherwise his mother would not try to let him meet a girl whenever she finds an opportunity.
Unfortunately, every time his mother mentioned this, the third brother would run away, just like the fourth brother.
Song Zhiyu was really not used to this environment. Under the pitying gaze of the stall owner, he took a purple hairpin and walked out.
"Miss Chu, this is for you."
Chu Qingli looked at the purple hairpin in front of her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, "Give it to me?"
"Consider it a return gift." Song Zhiyu said somewhat embarrassedly, "I noticed you were looking at this hairpin the whole time, and I thought you must like it, so I won it for you."
Chu Qingli took the hairpin in a daze, a strange feeling spreading through her heart, tinged with a hint of sweetness.
"Does the third young master of the Song family have someone he likes?"
"This girl is so beautiful, I'm afraid we have no chance."
The people around shook their heads, feeling it was a real pity that the ripples in their hearts had been extinguished so quickly. They were a perfect match, how could they possibly have a chance?
Listening to the surrounding discussions, Chu Qingli wanted to explain that they weren't in that kind of relationship, but the current situation clearly wasn't suitable, so she had no choice but to quickly walk out of the encirclement with Song Ruozhen and the others.
"Third Brother, you're amazing!"
Song Ruozhen gave Song Zhiyu a thumbs up. She had been worried that her third brother had no experience in this area and wouldn't know how to behave in front of a girl.
Now it seems that this man who has finally seen the light is different. Judging from Chu Qingli's expression just now, it's clear that this gift touched her heart.
Song Zhiyu chuckled, "Fifth sister, if you like, I'll help you win one too."
"Third brother, you don't need to worry about me. The most important thing is to find a way to help me get married as soon as possible."
The four of them strolled around the streets for a while. Chu Qingli, who was initially a little reserved, gradually relaxed and became much more comfortable talking after getting to know each other.
"Third Brother, Jun Ting and I are going somewhere else later, so you'll be in charge of taking Qing Li back."
Seeing this, Chu Qingli quickly said, "It's alright, I can go back by myself. I brought a maid with me today."
"Qingli, you're so beautiful, even with a maid, you might not be safe. Let my third brother escort you; he's very capable!"
Song Ruozhen smiled, "And I assure you, my third brother is a good person, you can rest assured!"
“I know the Third Young Master is a good person,” Chu Qingli quickly said.
"That's fine then. My third brother is going back anyway, so don't refuse since it's on your way."
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Chu Qingli agreed, "Then I'll trouble you, Third Young Master."
"No trouble at all," Song Zhiyu said with a bright smile.
Along the way, Song Zhiyu walked beside Chu Qingli, escorting her back to the Prince Gong's Mansion.
"I heard you're working in the palace now, are you very busy every day?"
"I'm not busy. I really enjoy this job. My colleagues are all very skilled, and we often practice with each other."
When Song Zhiyu talked about his current job, the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn up.
"I have practiced martial arts since I was a child and always thought about going to the battlefield when I grew up. Later, the war on the border stopped, and I didn't know what to do for a while."
"Now that I'm serving as a bodyguard in the palace, this job suits me perfectly; it's exactly what I like."
Seeing Song Zhiyu's joyful expression as he talked about his work, Chu Qingli's eyes also lit up with a smile. "Being able to do what you love is indeed very gratifying."
"I heard that Miss Chu likes embroidery?" Song Zhiyu asked.
"How did Young Master Song know?" Chu Qingli was extremely surprised.
After saying it, Song Zhiyu realized something was wrong. After all, he had been the one who was paying attention to Miss Chu, so he paid special attention when his colleagues talked about these things and naturally remembered them deeply.
It is said that Chu Qingli has been interested in embroidery since childhood, and the patterns she embroiders are unmatched even by the best embroiderers in the embroidery workshop.
Seeing a hint of suspicion in Chu Qingli's eyes, Song Zhiyu quickly explained, "My colleague's sister is your friend. I heard them mention her before, so I remembered her."
Upon hearing this answer, Chu Qingli was first taken aback, and then suddenly realized that she had been trying to find out about Song Jingshen's situation recently. Her close friend had specifically told her that her brother's colleague was Song Jiasanlang.
She didn't think much of it at the time, since she didn't know anyone from the Song family. Anyway, it was her best friend's brother who asked, so there shouldn't be any problem.
But... now that she realized her best friend's brother's colleague was Song Zhiyu, and that she had previously asked him to ask Song Zhiyu about Song Jingshen's situation, she suddenly felt incredibly embarrassed.
If Song Zhiyu had known beforehand that she was the one who did this, what would he have thought?
“Young Master Song, I mistook the Fourth Young Master for you before. It was a misunderstanding.”
"It's not a big deal. My fourth brother and I were often mistaken for each other when we were young. You don't know us, and you don't know I have a twin brother, so it's perfectly normal for you to mistake us for each other."
"Miss Chu, there's no need to feel embarrassed. Actually, I thought you liked my fourth brother before." Song Jingshen scratched the back of his head and couldn't help but laugh.
Even now, he finds the blunder he made amusing. Luckily, Miss Chu doesn't know about it, otherwise he would have been incredibly embarrassed!
"I...like the Fourth Young Master?" Chu Qingli felt a little guilty and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you think that?"
“I saw you when I went to the teahouse to look for my fourth brother. I recognized you immediately, but since you were staring at my fourth brother, I assumed…”
Chu Qingli quickly said, "No, I thought he was my savior, which is why I looked at him a few more times. But then I saw that he didn't seem to recognize me, so I wondered if I should say something."
She was very happy when she met Song Jingshen, but later found out that he didn't recognize her at all. He thought she had just saved someone and then forgotten about her, which made her feel a little disappointed.
Now that he thinks about it again, Young Master Song still remembers her, and he can't help but feel happy.
Song Zhiyu was secretly delighted; as long as he didn't like the fourth brother!
