Chapter 199: Pick it up and go
What do you mean by coincidence?
When Song Qingwan came to the main hall to worship Buddha, she knelt down devoutly, kowtowed three times, and then donated one hundred taels of incense money.

First I fulfilled my vow, and then I made a new wish, which was nothing more than asking for peace.

And just two people away from her, there was someone moving in sync with her.

This was purely a coincidence. Song Qingwan didn't notice it at first, but when she stood up, she met the other person's gaze.

Then the two smiled at each other, "Happy New Year, Master Zhang."

This was the first time Song Qingwan met Zhang Zhiyi since the incident in the secret passage. He had regained his original carefree and unrestrained appearance, but he had become a little thinner.

Maybe it was because of the matter of Mr. Zhang. I don’t know if Mr. Zhang has discovered the secret room in the basement of the embassy. The most taboo thing is that he has some involvement with the eldest princess.

Anyway, Mr. Zhang was later thrown into prison and no one was allowed to visit him.

Zhang Zhiyi couldn't help but worry about this matter. Everyone thought that Li Minghe deliberately targeted the Zhang family because he was jealous. He might even kill the entire Zhang family in a rage for the sake of his beloved.

Zhang Zhiyi also thought so at the time. He even ran to Li Minghe to assure him that he and Song Qingwan were innocent.

It's just that the prince ignored him. It was not until the rebellion of Prince Qing and the eldest princess that Mr. Zhang was released.

Only then did Zhang Zhiyi understand Li Minghe's intention. He might be trying to protect his grandfather and save the Zhang family.

After all, many forces were involved in this rebellion. Many old families were lured or threatened by Prince Qing and followed suit in the rebellion.

Of course in the end, their family was destroyed and they were wiped out by Li Minghe, but they didn't know that the prince had already collected evidence of their clique long ago.

And those families and forces that he believed were innocent or still useful were protected by him in various ways.

Zhang Zhiyi didn't understand why, but he tried his best to rescue his grandfather, and now he has lost weight. Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

He was now much relieved, and even though he still liked the girl in front of him, he was able to remain calm about it.

"Happy New Year, Miss Song, would you like to go out for a walk?" Zhang Zhiyi took the lead in making the invitation.

Oh! He was afraid of nothing. He was frightened for so long in vain. He would be angry if he didn't get hard. Besides, Zhang Zhiyi also liked to get along with Song Qingwan.

Who makes this girl so interesting?

"Let's go." Song Qingwan was even more powerful. She never cared because she was upright.

The two of them walked out of the hall together, and after reuniting with the Song brothers and sisters, they walked towards the back mountain, talking and laughing all the way.

However, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of Merlin, he ran into Chu Changsheng.

Different from his solemn attire when we met him before, he was now wearing a new scarlet suit, which made him look much brighter.

Chu Changsheng was still sitting in the wheelchair, seemingly waiting for someone.

It was not until he saw the Song siblings arriving that he pushed his wheelchair towards them, well, actually towards Song Qingya.

However, he did not succeed in approaching Song Qingya, as Song Qingping blocked his way first. "Sir, please wait a moment. Please let my female relatives move aside first."

After Song Qingping finished speaking, he glanced at his sisters behind him with a somewhat cold look.

He can't control an older sister, and he can't let his younger sister get away with it, otherwise the Song family will be unable to cover up and their reputation will be ruined.

With Song Qingping present, Song Qingya didn't dare to move at all. She could only follow the other sisters of the Song family and pass by Chu Changsheng indifferently.

Song Qingwan and Zhang Zhiyi in front of them also noticed these little movements, and they were both laughing secretly.

"Your brother is a promising young man, really extraordinary." He was quite dignified. Zhang Zhiyi did not sympathize with Chu Changsheng. He had told him before to be polite to the girl, but this boy still acted like a spoiled child. Isn't this hitting a wall?
He probably didn't understand the temper of the Song family. The Song family's confidence came from their own abilities, and they have always been fearless.

Song Qingwan dared to break up with Tai Chao unilaterally and become the crown prince, so how could her sister be so soft?
How could the men of the Song family be so cautious and not do anything? They would only look down upon those who bullied their sister, and might even secretly make things difficult for you.

“Don’t praise me. The ones in my family all have bad tempers and are a bit willful. But this is the first time I’ve seen that kid with a cold face. I’m a little scared.”

It is scary when an honest person gets angry and he will not easily forgive you.

"Impossible? Is there someone you, Miss Song, are afraid of?" It is probably because of both love and fear.

Neither of them cared about what was happening behind them, but Chu Changsheng did not leave after being rejected. Instead, he followed them relentlessly.

You can't chase him away, can you? I have to say, this guy is also amazing.

Merlin was very lively, and many people knew Zhang Zhiyi, and they were guessing Song Qingwan's identity through Zhang Zhiyi.

Of course, there were also guesses, and then gossip started flying around again.

However, the two did not take it seriously. They ate and walked along the way, chatting about topics that interested each other, such as foreign languages, etc. The atmosphere was pretty good.

Until I met someone who was neither strange nor familiar.

"Master Zhang, Miss Song." Miss Zhu San still had the gentle and dignified demeanor of a noble lady. Whether it was the expression on her face or the degree of her slight bow, it was exactly the same standard as measured.

Of course, she was not alone, but was followed by many men and women.

There were two young men walking in front of her, and it was obvious at a glance that their status was more noble than Zhu San's.

Song Qingwan didn't know any of them. Even though she had been to the palace and attended state banquets, she didn't have the time or opportunity to get along with these people.

Zhang Zhiyi, on the other hand, bowed to the two men in front of him, "The Third Prince, the Fifth Prince, and Miss Zhu San."

Look, they are really royal family members and Li Minghe’s brothers. However, Song Qingwan had no intention of speaking. Instead, she bowed politely and did not want to make close friends with these people.

"Hahaha, I've heard that Miss Song is bold and straightforward, and has made friends with many young and righteous people. I wonder if the girl would mind making friends with me? I'm particularly interested in the products of your fine factory."

The third prince looked to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old and seemed to be Li Minghe's half brother.

He didn't know whether it was intentional or not, but he thought he was being humorous and rushed directly towards Song Qingwan.

Anyway, these words were very harsh to Song Qingwan. Moreover, if the third prince had frequent contact with Zhu San, he would probably have developed a liking for Zhu San early on.

Is it that he only has a crush on Zhu San, or is he even controlled by her?
Song Qingwan frowned. Zhu San was poisoned with a poison that only targeted men. She didn't want her brother and younger brother to be too close to this woman.

"If you want to buy something, you are welcome to come to the factory after the 15th. We have something important to do right now, so we won't talk about business. We'll say goodbye now, everyone~"

Of course please get out and stay away from them.

The Third Prince didn't expect to be humiliated by Song Qingwan on the spot. This was the first woman who tried to get close to the Crown Prince. She was really arrogant!

"Heh! On the first day of the new year, what is Miss Song busy with? Don't you want to give this prince face?"

"I won't give it to you, what can you do?"

Of course, these words were not said by Song Qingwan, but by Li Minghe who suddenly appeared.

As soon as he appeared, he didn't care about anything and just carried Song Qingwan away.

Everyone was stunned~
