CHAPTER 666: CHAPTER 668: WHAT PLAY ARE YOU SINGING?
"Lady Yang, you’re right, it is quite a coincidence, isn’t it? From the Silver Pavilion to Dongfeng Restaurant, and then from Dongfeng Restaurant to here. Later, we might even ’coincidentally’ end up at Yang Family Village, don’t you think that would be nice?" Han Yongsheng’s tone was teasing.
Xiaoxiao’s face, which had been full of smiles, now lost all traces of joy—so they had been discovered from the start. They were found out, yet not exposed. They were being played like fools.
Feeling very embarrassed by such a revelation, Yang Ming felt the need to apologize. "Young Master Han, about today’s events, we are truly sorry. It was indeed inappropriate of us."
"Hehe." Han Yongsheng pursed his lips in a smile, looked at Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming with his harmless face, "You were acting out of concern for Miss Wang, I can understand that."
Han Yongsheng hadn’t really taken the tracking to heart from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn’t have let them follow him all this time.
As soon as Wang Xiangxiang was mentioned, Xiaoxiao’s curiosity was piqued, and she asked, "Young Master Han, what exactly are you doing? You take my sister shopping at the Silver Pavilion, then dining, and in the end, escort her home, not forgetting to give her gifts."
It was practically a date. From the Silver Pavilion to the restaurant, then escorting her home—all so considerate it was almost too sweet to handle. He even threw out a hundred taels at Dongfeng Restaurant. Ah, if only Chu Lian hadn’t made his move first, she would totally ship this couple right now.
In response to Xiaoxiao’s question, Han Yongsheng still smiled and replied, "For that, I must thank Lady Yang for her advice."
"..." Her advice? It couldn’t be that offhand remark she made, could it?
"I believe Lady Yang made a very sensible point. It wouldn’t be right to propose marriage so rashly; we should get to know each other better first."
"..." It was indeed her own thoughtless words that had led to this.
Han Yongsheng said this and even nodded slightly, as if he were deep in thought, "After spending the day together, I feel that Miss Wang and I are quite compatible."
At this moment, Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say. So, had she really brought such trouble upon Wang Xiangxiang?
"So, you really don’t plan to give up?"
"Lady Yang, seeing as you’ve followed us all the way, don’t you think Miss Wang and I enjoy a good atmosphere when we’re together?"
"..." Xiaoxiao was at a loss for words to his question. Indeed, they had a good vibe together, so good that even she, an outsider, was almost persuaded.
No matter what Xiaoxiao thought, Yang Ming felt that this was not right. He was firmly on Chu Lian’s side, so he spoke up, "Young Master Han, they say it is better to tear down ten temples than to destroy a single marriage. I’m sure you’re aware of her past with Chu Lian. I advise you to give up before you become too emotionally invested."
"Young Master Yang, you’re being too serious. I haven’t broken them up. I’ve simply given Miss Wang a chance to choose," Han Yongsheng replied.
"Let’s hope so." Yang Ming could say no more on the matter, as after all, it was something only the parties involved could handle, and outsiders were powerless to intercede.
Seeing Yang Ming’s stern expression, Han Yongsheng smiled and said, "Don’t worry, Young Master Yang. By the way, you should go in and see her. She’s not as strong as she appears to be."
Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming had observed Wang Xiangxiang’s reaction at Dongfeng Restaurant after encountering Li Fuyou, and indeed had concerns, which is why they had followed her here. "Young Master Han, we’ll take our leave then. See you tomorrow morning."
"All right, I’ll head to Yang Family Village early tomorrow morning."
As Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming left, Han Yongsheng suddenly remembered something and called out to them, "You’d better watch out for that person from Dongfeng Restaurant."
