Chapter 528: Night Visit
After some explanation, the two women understood the necessity of Song Qingshu’s return to Yanjing and stopped trying to dissuade him. However, Ah Jiu recalled something and said, “Brother Song, there are two things you must not forget to do before you leave.”
“What things?” Song Qingshu was taken aback.
“The first is, of course, Miss Zeng. Before, you could say you were too busy, but if you keep putting it off now, it won’t make sense. That young girl has been eagerly waiting for you to make a move.” Ah Jiu rolled her eyes at him.
Song Qingshu had been troubled by this matter for a long time. Seeing that he could no longer avoid it, he snorted and said fiercely, “It’s just marrying a woman, isn’t it? I’ll marry her then. It’s not like I’m losing anything. What’s the other matter?”
“Miss Zeng is deeply in love with you, so don’t treat her lightly.” Xia Qingqing couldn’t help but glare at him.
Song Qingshu sighed softly, “She’s just a young girl whose heart has recently opened to love. Her feelings for me are more about admiration. It’s nothing like the true affection we share, forged through life and death together. But don’t worry; since I’m marrying her, I’ll treat her well.”
Song Qingshu’s sudden display of genuine emotion moved the two women deeply. A woman’s heart is hard to understand. On the surface, they all wanted Song Qingshu to treat Zeng Rou equally, but if he truly loved Zeng Rou just as much, they would inevitably feel jealous.
“All right, all right. Leave Miss Zeng’s matter to me; I have deep connections with the Wangwu Sect.” Ah Jiu shifted the topic, suddenly frowning. “Brother Song, I don’t know what Lady Guo is thinking. She’s been staying in the Golden Serpent Camp all this time, showing no intention of leaving.”
“Maybe she enjoys staying close to certain people. Ah Jiu, are you getting jealous?” Xia Qingqing teased, ever eager to stir things up.
