Yu Xiang's words stirred up waves in Yu Ping's heart. She wanted to find Zhangsun Yu to understand, but she had to find someone to discuss it with first.
Qin Huizhi became the only person she could discuss with.
"Are you busy?" she asked politely.
"No matter how busy I am, I have to come." Actually, he wasn't busy during the day.
"I want to know if Sang Yunong has any influence.”
Qin Huizhi seemed to have expected her to ask this question, so he answered calmly,""What do you think?"
"I've just arrived in Suzhou and haven't yet entered the situation, but I realized that I seem to have missed out on something important. I need someone to explain it to me.”
"What I know is limited, and I don't live in the An Lan Villa, so how could I possibly be observant?”
"Yu…could it be that he has feelings for Sang Kunshan's daughter?”
Qin Huizhi sighed. He knew that Yu Ping had strong feelings for Zhangsun Yu, unlike what the man had said about her being a good friend.
"I can't answer this question for him.”
Tell me your intuition."
" He denied it." That was all he could say.
"I don't believe it." Yu Ping cried sadly. She knew that tears could arouse Qin Huizhi's sympathy. He had always been like this.
"I don't believe it either. I don't think that even Lord Fifth himself believes it. After meeting Sang Yunong, you should understand that it is very difficult for a man to resist a woman like her.”The truth always hurt, but he felt that it was necessary for her to hear the truth.
"If beauty was the only reason to attract people, I wouldn't be so frustrated today.”
"What do you plan to do?" he asked in a pragmatic manner.
"Think of a way to make Yu hate Sang Yunong. It would be best if she was chased out of the An Lan Villa. Only then can I really get rid of my thorn.”
"You'd better think twice before you do anything. I'm afraid that you'll make things worse and push Sang Yunong in a direction that you don't want to see.”A part of Qin Huizhi's heart sympathized with Yu Ping. Back then, the three of them had their own sad stories. They gathered together to comfort each other and walked through those dark years. Now that Yu Ping was in trouble, logically, he should help. However, the matter of love could not be cut off and was still chaotic. He did not want to wade in this muddy water.
"You've outsmarted yourself? Are you saying that Yu will protect Sang Yunong?"
Qin Huizhi replied carefully," It depends on how you look at this matter. Although Sang Yunong is Sang Kunshan's daughter, they are still two people after all. Some of their persistence might disappear after they put in their feelings for each other.”
Yu Ping said hatefully," I have loved Yu for so many years. How can I not be able to defeat Sang Yunong, who has only appeared for two months?!"”
"You hid it too well. He might not know that you love him.”
"What did you say?" She looked at Qin Huizhi.
"I said, love must be known to the other party.”
Yu Ping had once hinted at her love for him. Sometimes, she even suspected that her hints were almost explicit, but Zhangsun Yu was still indifferent. What could she do? Other than anxiety, there was also anxiety.
"Pingping, listen to me. Don't force it.”These were his heartfelt words.
"I'm not as carefree as you."
"You can try. We've been through so much separately, what's there to be unhappy about? People need to learn to adapt and be strong. I manage Fragrant Garden, and some people who claim to be upright despise me very much, but I admit that I have my own contributions and am not a useless brothel owner.”He advised her.
"It's very difficult!" Feelings were different from anything else in the world.
"Alright then! Since you said so, then go ahead and fight for it! Just be careful not to hurt both sides." He was not exaggerating.
"Miss Ping, Fifth Master invites you to the study.”The servant girl who served Yu Ping came over and said.
Yu Ping was full of smiles. She wanted Zhangsun Yu to see the best side of her.
Zhangsun Yu looked up at her from the book he was reading. "Regret?"
"He just left."
"Are you used to living here these two days?" he asked.
Yu Ping walked towards him, her eyes staring straight at him. "I can get used to anywhere with you around.”
Zhangsun Yu took out a golden hook and jade scroll from the drawer and handed it to her." This is for you."”
She played with it in her hand and immediately smiled." It's so beautiful."”
"I knew you would like it. I wanted to give it to you the moment I saw it.”
"You're so good to me." She felt more confident.
"This is nothing. You have the habit of collecting jade! Yingying also took a fancy to this jade scroll, so I didn't give it to her.”
"Why?" She was overjoyed.
"She doesn't collect it as seriously as you do. At most, it's just for fun. I'm afraid that if I give her this jade scroll, she won't keep it properly and waste it.”
So it was like this! She was a little disappointed. "Yingying probably has another reason to hate me.”
"Don't mind her. A little girl's thoughts are quickly forgotten.”
"How long will Sang Yunong be staying here?" Yu Ping asked with a smile.”
"Wait until I'm no longer interested in her."”
"This is very difficult." she mumbled.
"Eh?" He didn't hear it clearly.
"Regret said that men are easily attracted to her appearance. How can you be an exception?”She probed him.
Zhangsun Yu understood what she meant. This woman was measuring how much he cared about another woman. He did not want her to know the truth, so he said calmly,"She's Sangkun Mountain's daughter. Do you think she can attract me?”
"I don't think this can be mixed up. Hui Zhi is right. You might develop feelings for each other after spending time in the same room.”She guessed that her expression must be very ugly.
He smiled." What are you trying to say?”
"I'm afraid you'll be in pain from falling in love with your enemy's daughter.”
"Are you very concerned about this matter?"
She approached him and boldly raised her hand to caress his handsome face."I care about everything about you."
Yu Ping's sexy lips took the initiative to kiss him. Just as he was about to push her away forcefully, he suddenly saw Sang Yunong standing outside the window. In order to torture her, his wild and cruel side began to kiss Yu Ping passionately, welcoming her to watch.
Sang Yunong, who was standing outside the window, could not help but be stunned. She understood her predicament and turned around to run towards the plum forest behind the villa.
The oblivious Yu Ping did not know that Zhangsun Yu's enthusiasm was purely for Sang Yunong to see. She was so immersed in it that she wanted him to have her right in the study room.
He pushed her away, and she protested in dissatisfaction,""Yu, don't you want me?"
"I can't take advantage of you.”He stood up.
She couldn't accept this sense of loss. She loved him wholeheartedly and didn't want such an answer.
"What do you mean?" Her cheeks were flushed red, and she looked extremely charming.
Zhangsun Yu stared at Yu Ping sternly. "Pingping, I can't give you the relationship you want.”
"The relationship I want? What relationship do I need?" she asked him.
"We have a tacit understanding. I'm afraid I'll hurt you if I say some things too directly."”
Yu Ping seemed to have been given a sharp warning. She put down the jade scroll and clasped her hands." You don't have any feelings for me?”
"We are friends." He could only give this much.
"Friends?" She raised her head and smiled bitterly.
"I'm very grateful for your and Hui Zhi's company back then. If it weren't for you two, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly from that incident.”
"You also said that you would never fall in love with Sangkunshan's daughter.”She accused with tears in her eyes.
"These are two different things, not black and white.”
Yu Ping resisted the urge to shout and said,"These are two different things. You clearly fell in love with her, that's why you don't love me.”
Zhangsun Yu sneered." I doubt my lover's ability.”
This wasn't an alarmist remark. He often hated himself for not having any feelings for love. He could do it with those women in Luoyang without any feelings. Therefore, when Yu Ping asked him for love, he could not give her that kind of thing.
Sang Yunong, who had lost her soul, leaned against an old plum tree. She could not suppress the chaos in her heart that had been caused by the scene she had just seen.
"Why are you sitting here?" Zhangsun Yu said in a low voice. He knew that she was running in the direction of the plum forest. After Yu Ping left the study, he immediately came here to look for her.
She opened her cherry lips slightly and looked at him.
He squatted down and lifted her chin, wanting to kiss her lips, but she turned her face away in resistance.
"Don't touch me."
"I'll touch you whenever I want!”He raised his eyebrows.
" I saw you and Miss Yu in the study…" She could not continue, but her tears fell uncontrollably.
He smiled teasingly." Jealous?”
"No, I haven't." She tried her best to hold back her tears.
"You can't be so jealous as my woman," he said with a smile.”His lips curled into an evil smile as he reached out and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her slender waist, lifted her hair with his lips, and sucked on the back of her fair neck.
" This is unfair to Miss Yu…She…"
"Not here, okay?"
"Shy?"
" Oh…" She moaned.
"In the future, no matter if it's day or night, no matter where I want you, you have to give it to me, understand?”
" Will…will let people…see…" She expressed her worry.
"Don't worry, I won't take off your clothes, and I can't bear to let others see you naked.”
"Now…give it to me…"
"Yu, you hurt my heart too much. You don't want me but want this b * tch. I hate you, I hate you all.”Yu Ping swore.
A woman's determination to hate was as strong as her determination to love. What she, Yu Ping, couldn't get, other women couldn't either. She would rather destroy the woman who provoked her.
"Sister, why are you standing here in the rain?”Yu Xiang held an umbrella and was about to walk towards the back door of the villa behind the plum forest.
"Watching a vixen seduce a man." Yu Ping replied impolitely.
Yu Xiang looked in the direction her sister was looking and exclaimed,""Heavens!"
"Keep your voice down. Don't let them find out.”
Yu Xiang was no longer a virgin, so she naturally understood what they were doing.
"It's broad daylight, they're…in the Merlin…too enthusiastic!”Yu Xiang was envious of Sang Yunong.
"Stop looking. The more you look, the angrier you get. No wonder he said those words in the study just now.”Yu Ping pulled Yu Xiang and hid behind the stone pillars of the pavilion.
"Sister, how could Brother Yu do this to you?”
Did he say that he did not love anyone and that he would not fall in love with Sang Yunong? She asked herself. She said that she didn't want to look, but she couldn't help but glance in the direction of the two of them.
After a while, Zhangsun Yu picked up Sang Yunong, who was lying limply on the ground, and walked towards the main house.
"Sister, should we follow them?"
"Don't." Yu Ping stopped him.
"Why? We can pretend that nothing has happened and go forward to ask if Sang Yunong is sick.”Yu Xiang had her own tricks.
"Sick?" Yu Ping snorted and laughed. "I think she fainted from joy.”
"Sister, if you're angry, don't keep it to yourself. You'll get sick from it.”The young Yu Xiang's desire for revenge did not lose to the person involved, Yu Ping.
"I don't intend to keep it to myself. I am now prepared to wait for an opportunity to make a move. Sang Yunong has made me suffer, so I will not let her suffer too much.”
This was an oath and a determination. At most, no one would be able to get Zhangsun Yu.
Zhangsun Yu placed Sang Yunong flat on the bed. "Change out of your wet clothes, lest you catch a cold.”
"What about you?" His clothes were also wet.
"I'm fine." He glanced at her. Just now in the plum forest, she had given him a lot of satisfaction, and his possessiveness towards her had become even more intense.
She sat up and coughed lightly.
He took a piece of clothing and threw it to her. "Hurry up and change your clothes. Do you want me to do it for you?”He didn't want to smile at her, and he didn't want her to see his soft-hearted side.
She took the clothes he threw at her, but she still had difficulty changing into them in front of him. "I…"
"What's wrong?" He could read her mind.
"Can you…please leave?”She gulped, thinking that he would definitely not agree.
Unexpectedly, he really turned around and left, leaving Sang Yunong behind with a surprised look on her face.
Zhangsun Yu, who had just turned into the corridor, met his sister who was rushing through the corridor. He called out to her.
"Fifth Brother." Zhangsun Yingying stopped in her tracks.
"Where are you going? You didn't even open an umbrella when it rained."
Zhangsun Yingying did not dare to lie. "Brother Zhiliang invited Sister Yunong and I to watch a show.”
"Yunong is in her room."
"Oh... I thought she went to the study to read.”
"You can go by yourself. Yunong is not feeling well and is resting in her room.”What was Zhang Zhiliang thinking?
"Sister Yunong promised to watch the show with me.”Zhangsun Yingying had just asked in the morning.
"I told you she's not feeling well."
"I'll go ask her." Zhangsun Yingying went around her brother to look for Sang Yunong.
Zhangsun Yu stopped his sister." Yingying, if you're so annoying, even you're not allowed to go out and watch the show.”
"Alright! I don't mind Sister Yunong resting. She promised Brother Zhiliang that she would go.”Zhangsun Yingying grumbled in grievance.
"She didn't know she was going to be uncomfortable when she agreed.”Zhangsun Yu still insisted on not letting Sang Yunong go out.
Zhangsun Yingying had no choice but to apologize to Zhang Zhiliang.
As expected, Zhang Zhiliang looked disappointed." Didn't Yunong say that she would come?”
Zhangsun Yingying jumped off her horse. "Fifth Brother said she wasn't feeling well."
"Uncomfortable? Where is she feeling unwell?" His good mood was completely ruined.
Zhangsun Yingying shrugged. "I don't think it's a big deal that I didn't see her. Fifth Brother must have made up an excuse to reject Sister Yunong because he didn't want her to meet you.”
"He's too much." Zhang Zhiliang roared.
"What's wrong? You don't welcome me coming alone, do you?”she said unhappily.
"It's not that we don't welcome you. We agreed that the three of us would watch 'Mulan joins the army' together.”
"I almost couldn't come out either. It would be even worse if you watched the show alone.”
"How can Zhangsun Yu put Yunong under house arrest?"
Zhangsun Yingying said in a fussy tone,"I think Sister Yunong is very happy to be under house arrest. Fifth Brother loves her very much.”
"Did the Yu Sisters bully her?" Zhang Zhiliang was already prepared to fight for Sang Yunong at any time.
"I don't think so! With Fifth Brother around, it was not their turn to be angry.”
"They might not dare to do it openly, but they might do it secretly. A woman's jealousy is very terrifying. It would be bad if Yu Ping's jealousy burned and hurt Yunong.”
Zhangsun Yingying rolled her eyes." Are we going to watch Mulan join the army, or are we going to stand here and discuss Fifth Brother's women?”
"Of course…to watch Mulan join the army.”
"Then hurry up and leave."
Qin Hui was entrusted by Yu Ping to come to Anlan Villa. He chose the day when Zhangsun Yu was out to complete his friend's request.
"Miss Sang." he shouted.
Sang Yunong, who was practicing her calligraphy in the study, was stunned. "Boss Qin."
"Call me Hui Zhi. The title of Boss Qin makes me look like a brothel owner in front of you.”
" Fifth Master isn't here…" She was a little flustered.
"I'm not here for him. I'm here for you.”He approached the desk.
"Looking for me?" She put down the brush in her hand.
"You have good handwriting." He stared at her hibiscus face. "No wonder Fifth Master is so fascinated by you.”
"I…I was just practicing for fun." She was so nervous that her palms were sweating. To her, Fragrant Garden was still a place she did not want to think about.
"You don't have to be afraid of me. I won't hurt you.”No matter how beautiful she was, she was still loved by her friends. He would not be stupid enough to make an enemy as strong as Zhangsun Yu.
She stood up and walked towards the door.
"I have something to tell you." Qin Huizhi quickly expressed her intentions when she saw her fear.
"Eh?" Sang Yunong was stunned again.
"Aren't you curious why Fifth Master hates your father so much?”
As expected, these words caught Sang Yunong's attention. "Do you know why?"
"Very clearly, and I can tell you the truth, but please come in a little, I don't want to talk about it at the top of my lungs.”
Sang Yunong glanced at him before taking a few steps forward carefully.
Qin Huizhi looked at her with interest." I really won't do anything to you because I don't want to die under Fifth Master's sword.”
"Please tell me the truth."
"Do you remember that one year, your father went to Luoyang to look for someone?”He started. The story was too long, and he wanted to be concise.
She shook her head.
"You were still young at that time, so you probably don't remember. In short, the person your father went to Luoyang to look for was Fifth Master's biological mother. She and your father were childhood sweethearts. She had no choice but to sell herself to a merchant who went to Suzhou to do business for the sake of her family's poverty. That merchant was Fifth Master's father. He ignored his social class and his family's opposition and married the woman who sold herself. After marriage, he lived a peaceful and happy life. Lord Fifth's father loved his wife who gave birth to a son and a daughter. Unfortunately, his peaceful life was disturbed because of your father.
Although your father married your mother many years later and gave birth to you, he could not forget his first love. He went to Luoyang to find his lover who married into the Zhangsun family and instigated her to abandon her husband and son. Unexpectedly, when the two of them were about to fly together, the cuckolded Old Master Zhangsun chose to die with his wife.”Qin Huizhi paused.
Sang Yunong was extremely shocked. This story explained that there was really an unspeakable scandal behind the discord between her parents.
"Sangkunshan returned to his wife's side after his lover died.”He made an annotation.
" My father…" She couldn't believe that her father would hurt so many people for a woman.
"Tell me, if it were you, would you not feel hatred in your heart?”
"How could this be?" She staggered and fell into the chair.
"Your father ruined Fifth Master's family for his own selfish reasons, and that year, Yu Ping and I got to know Fifth Master.”
"He…suffered a lot." Tears fell from her eyes.
"You will know the truth sooner or later. I'm telling you now to remind you that Fifth Master can't be sincere to you. He's just playing with you because you're Sang Kunshan's daughter.”
Sang Yunong nodded her head." I understand. I understand from the beginning to the end.”
"It's not wise to put your feelings on someone who hates you. The feeling of being heartbroken is hard to bear. I pity you, an orphan, and I'm afraid that you'll be in so much pain that you'll want to leave before you can.”
She didn't say anything and just continued to cry.
"You should fulfill Yu Ping's wish and let them build a warm home together. There is no hatred, only love.”He could only help Yu Ping this much.
Sang Yunong nodded her head." I have never thought of climbing up to Lord Fifth.”
"Then leave him." Qin Huizhi couldn't bear to look at her." Don't deny that you've fallen in love. If your father hadn't stolen someone else's wife, I would have said that you and Fifth Master were a match made in heaven.”This was the truth.
Sang Yunong understood that under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to get together. Instead of sinking deeper and deeper, it was better to leave before everything was too late.
The question was, could she let go?
After spending so much time together, she inevitably fell in love with Zhangsun Yu. If it wasn't for the love she had for him, she wouldn't have become more and more immersed in his fanatical love. Not only did he want her body, but he also broke through her strong defenses.
How could she take back a heart that had long fallen into her heart?#
