Chapter 645: Ill Intent
Song Qingshu’s gaze landed on Ren Yingying’s face, just a few feet away. Her skin appeared as translucent as fine jade, with a faint blush shining through. Under the glow of her crimson wedding dress, her cheeks were radiant and delicate, making her seem utterly captivating.
Song Qingshu couldn’t help but marvel: ‘Such a beautiful bride—only a fool would give her up to another man.’
“I’ve kept you waiting, my dear wife,” Song Qingshu said, his voice tinged with drunkenness.
Ren Yingying’s expression turned cold. “I hope you will exercise self-restraint, Senior Xu. I only agreed to this sham marriage to annul my engagement with Song Qingshu. You are well aware of the circumstances, and surely you wouldn’t wish to betray Miss Youyou, would you?”
Slapping his forehead, Song Qingshu laughed heartily. “Ah, my memory fails me! Seeing such a stunning bride, I must have lost myself for a moment.”
Though this enigmatic man rarely expressed admiration, Ren Yingying couldn’t help but blush slightly. “Am I really that beautiful?” she asked hesitantly.
“You outshine even the prettiest of flowers, unmatched in beauty,” Song Qingshu praised sincerely.
“Thank you for the compliment, Senior,” she replied shyly. However, a sigh escaped her lips as she thought of Linghu Chong. “It’s a pity Brother Chong couldn’t see this.”
Song Qingshu spoke with a double meaning. “That boy just doesn’t have the fortune for it.”
