Flower Stealing Master

Chapter 414: Close Confidant

Wang Yuyan couldn’t help but snap, “What nonsense are you talking about!”

Song Qingshu leaned on the railing behind him and said with a relaxed smile, “Since you are crying so sadly, I am just teasing you.”

Wang Yuyan raised the back of her hand and gently wiped the tears on her cheeks, then hesitantly asked, “Did you hear our conversation just now?”

“Yes.” Song Qingshu smiled faintly.

“I’m sorry.” Wang Yuyan apologized.

Song Qingshu waved his hand, “What do you have to be sorry for? You are not Murong Fu, you are just his cousin.”

Although Wang Yuyan was still angry with Murong Fu, knowing that Song Qingshu found out about their betrayal, she still subconsciously wanted to help her cousin, and tried to explain, “Young Master Song, my cousin didn’t want to do this either, but this opportunity is too important to him.”

Song Qingshu smiled nonchalantly, “Miss Wang, you don’t have to defend him. In fact, I don’t have any intention in my heart to blame him. On the contrary, I understand him very well. If we were to change places, I would probably make the same choice.”

A strange expression appeared on Wang Yuyan’s fair cheeks, and finally she quietly sighed, “I didn’t expect that you would defend him like this.”

“If I don’t defend him, how can I show off my broad-mindedness in front of Miss Wang.” Song Qingshu laughed loudly, looking suave and calm.

Wang Yuyan glanced at him in surprise. She didn’t expect him to be so honest with her. However, Wang Yuyan could tell from Song Qingshu’s tone and demeanor that the other party was definitely not saying that just to show off.

Although Song Qingshu kept talking, his eyes were extremely clear, he obviously didn’t have any intentions towards her as he claimed.

Wang Yuyan looked back on the men she had met in her life, whether it was her cousin who was cold to her, or Young Master Duan who was passionately devoted to her, none of them was as carefree as Song Qingshu. When they conversed, he acted as if she was just an ordinary friend in his heart. He talked very casually, not caring whether she would hate it or like it.

“You must be comparing the characteristics of me and your cousin.” Seeing Wang Yuyan’s dazed expression, Song Qingshu couldn’t help but look at her as he waved his hand in front of the young woman.

“No way…” Wang Yuyan lowered her head, a blush flashing across her cheeks.

Song Qingshu didn’t care and casually asked, “Since Miss Wang is here, that Young Master Duan from Dali should also be nearby, right?”

Wang Yuyan couldn’t help but snap, “Young Master Song, don’t talk nonsense, the relationship between me and Young Master Duan is clear as day…”

Song Qingshu smiled noncommittally, “That boy Duan Yu is so devoted to you that he calls you his Fairy Sister. I don’t believe you really don’t know his thoughts.”

Wang Yuyan sighed softly, “I am devoted to my cousin, so I have no choice but to refuse Young Master Duan’s kindness.”

“Don’t you have any feelings for that guy Duan Yu?” Song Qingshu looked at her with a faux-smile.

Wang Yuyan’s face turned red, and she immediately became angry, “How can Young Master Song, a honorable and dignified man, inquire about such matters from a woman?”

“Everyone has the desire to gossip, so why should we distinguish between men and women?” There was no trace of shame on Song Qingshu’s face, “Miss Wang, if you don’t dislike me, you can treat me as a close male confidant. Maybe I can help you share your worries.”

Wang Yuyan was startled, “What is a close male confidant?”

Song Qingshu explained, “A woman can be a man’s confidant, and a man can naturally be a woman’s confidant. Miss Wang is well-read, so it should be easy to understand.”

Wang Yuyan angrily said, “Who wants you to be my close confidant!”

Song Qingshu’s expression remained calm, “I can achieve today’s achievements largely due to Miss Wang’s guidance that day, which allowed me to mend my meridians. I have always been grateful to Miss Wang. So when I saw you being bullied by you cousin, I showed up to meet you, I just want to help you as much as I can, so that you can understand your heart as soon as possible.”

“My heart?” Seeing Song Qingshu’s serious face, for some reason, Wang Yuyan subconsciously believed his words.

“I still have things to do later, so I can only keep the story short. You should try to understand it carefully.” Song Qingshu coughed lightly and slowly said, “It can be seen that Miss Wang has always liked your cousin, but Young Master Murong wants to dedicate his life to his ‘great cause’ and has never responded to your love.”

Song Qingshu looked at Wang Yuyan and continued, “At this time, Young Master Duan, who has an outstanding appearance and good character, appears and is very attentive to you. Although you may not have fallen in love with him, you definitely have a favorable impression of him. You also enjoy his attention and the feeling of being pampered, so although you have always been lukewarm towards him, you have not explicitly refused and taken the initiative to set boundaries with him.”

“As for your cousin? Well…he is a typical person who is obsessed with saving face. He is quite narrow-minded but just pretends to be generous. Although he doesn’t say it, he will definitely feel very unhappy with your attitude towards Young Master Duan. Over time, he will definitely take his anger out on you for creating such a situation. I think you, as a woman, should know how to be reserved and self-loving, and clear any ambiguous relationships with other men…”

Seeing Wang Yuyan’s pretty face gradually turn pale, Song Qingshu continued, “So I would like to advise Miss Wang to recognize her heart as soon as possible. If you really make up your mind to spend the rest of your life with Murong Fu, you should draw a clear line with Duan Yu as soon as possible; if you like Duan Yu more, you should accept his love as soon as possible, so as not to have any regrets.”

Wang Yuyan was horrified when she thought about how her cousin had been acting cold towards her since she met Duan Yu. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that Song Qingshu’s analysis was reasonable.

‘But Young Master Duan has been so kind to me, how could I be so heartless and hurt his heart…’

“Then who do you think I should choose more?” Wang Yuyan murmured to herself, and as soon as the words came out, she was shocked.

‘Why would I ask such a question? Don’t I feel confident in choosing my cousin?’

Song Qingshu glanced at her with a faux-smile, but without revealing his thoughts, he replied, “Miss Wang and Young Master Murong are childhood sweethearts. In addition, Young Master Murong is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs and is quite famous in the martial arts world. He was originally the perfect choice for your husband, it’s just…”

“Just what?” Seeing his deliberate pause, Wang Yuyan suddenly became anxious.

“It’s just that Young Master Murong is obsessed with the dream of recovering his dynasty, and he doesn’t care about the love.” Song Qingshu dropped a bombshell.

Wang Yuyan felt chills all over her body. The Murong family’s aim of reviving their dynasty had always been extremely confidential. Only a few people knew about that secret. So how could Song Qingshu know about it?

Seeing the frightened look on her face, Song Qingshu smiled slightly, “Miss Wang, you can rest assured that I will never reveal this secret to anyone, and I have no intention of blackmailing Young Master Murong…now you should believe what I said and understand what you have to do, right?”
