Chapter 150: Chapter 150: This Prince Will Never Look at Her Again

Qi Yu thought this Miss Song truly had no shame, at least she had never seen another maiden who could speak so shamelessly.

Why would she go out of her way to welcome someone who wanted to steal her place?

Chunlan also rolled her eyes, thinking that Song Yuting was full of hot air, quite comparable to Qi Anran.

Qi Yu glanced at Song Yuting and smiled, saying, "The residence has been busy lately, I’m afraid I might neglect you."

Song Yuting quickly responded, "How could that be? I’m worried about disturbing you, cousin-in-law."

Qi Yu thought sarcastically, knowing it’s a disturbance but still bringing a pile of luggage in a rush?

However, she would be leaving the day after tomorrow, and Song Yuting’s hopes would likely be dashed.

She had the servant assign a clean room especially instructing, "Miss Song likes quiet, arrange a quieter room."

The servant caught her drift and obliged, arranging for Song Yuting the most secluded little courtyard.

Song Yuting had hoped to be placed as close to Li Mingjue as possible, but unexpectedly, she was assigned to the farthest place, just a few steps more and she could go right out through the side gate.

Qi Yu still smiled at her, asking deliberately, "Miss Song, are you satisfied with this arrangement?"

Song Yuting forced a smile, "If cousin-in-law arranged it, of course I like it."

Reluctantly, she let the maids move her things to the little courtyard, and after fuming in her room for a good while, she changed clothes and decided to go out for a walk.

At this hour, Li Mingjue should be back at the residence.

Thinking this, a flush appeared on Song Yuting’s face.

She had long set her sights on Li Mingjue, eager to marry into the Prince Residence, but her humble origins as the daughter of a concubine from the General Residence meant she could never become the Princess.

Thus, Song Yuting had always contemplated that even being a concubine would be great.

She had intended to disclose her feelings to her parents after coming of age, but unexpectedly, she learned of Li Mingjue’s poisoning.

During that time, she sent servants daily to inquire news from the Prince Qiu Residence, and seeing that Li Mingjue was beyond help, she finally gave up her plans.

But just a month later, Li Mingjue revived, now with an ugly and foolish wife.

Song Yuting was bitterly envious; had she seized the opportunity to marry into royalty earlier, what matter would Qi Yu have, and she would have already been the official Princess of Prince Qiu Residence.

But with all the men of the General Residence off fighting at the borders, there was no one at home to make her case.

After much thought, Song Yuting decided to turn the raw rice into cooked rice; then, even the Emperor couldn’t stop her from marrying into Prince Qiu Residence.

At recent flower-viewing feast, Song Yuting had deliberately gotten close to Qi Yu, aiming to start from there and move legitimately into the Prince Residence to cultivate a relationship with Li Mingjue.

But she had waited nearly half a month without any indication from Qi Yu.

Panicked, Song Yuting feared waiting any longer might lose her the opportunity.

In the past two days, after discussing with the lady of the General Residence, she packed her things and moved to the Prince Qiu Residence overnight.

Now that she was here, Qi Yu certainly couldn’t kick her out.

Song Yuting thought confidently that as long as she stayed at Prince Qiu Residence for a while and won over the hearts of others, she could naturally edge Qi Yu out.

As she thought, the smile on her face deepened, her eyes filling with greed.

Reaching the bridge, she happened to meet Song Ling.

Song Yuting was surprised to see a stranger, but upon closer inspection realized he was exceptionally handsome and her eyes darted around.

"Oh—" she intentionally swayed and tried to fall onto Song Ling.

With the closeness of their distance, she was certain he couldn’t dodge her.

Unexpectedly, Song Ling stepped aside and watched indifferently as Song Yuting crashed heavily to the ground.

Song Yuting’s elbows were scraped, and as she was helped up by her maid, she looked up resentfully and glared at Song Ling, "Which family’s son are you, and how can you be so rude!"

If it weren’t for this person deliberately avoiding, would she have fallen to the ground?

Upon hearing this, Song Ling frowned and didn’t want to deal with this woman who was flamboyant and twisted the facts.

Just now, he had clearly seen that this person had intentionally fallen in front of him.

Moreover, the paths in the Prince Residence were very smooth, and there were no broken stones by the bridge. Walking normally, how could one possibly fall for no reason?

Seeing that he ignored her, Song Yuting felt both embarrassed and angry, and chased after him, shouting, "Stop right there!"

Song Ling had no choice but to stop, turn around, and look at her with a cold gaze, "May I know what the lady wishes to instruct?"

His eyes, like millennia-old ice, made Song Yuting involuntarily step back, yet she couldn’t help but swoon over his face, huffing, "Why didn’t you help me just now?"

Song Ling indifferently replied, "Why should I have helped you?"

Stifled by his words, Song Yuting got angry, and seeing him about to leave, hurriedly chased after him, "Stop right there!"

This time, Song Ling didn’t stop as she wanted and continued walking forward at a steady pace, only faster, as if there was a flood or beast behind him.

Today, fortunately, a guest had come. Qi Yu had set up a table full of dishes at Tinglan Pavilion, inviting Song Yuting to eat was secondary, the main reason was her own desire to eat.

Li Mingjue had no objections to her doing this, but upon hearing that Song Yuting had arrived at the residence, he frowned a bit, "If you don’t like her, just send her away."

Qi Yu put down her chopsticks, glanced at him, and retorted with a cold laugh, "She came for the Prince, why should I send her away?"

Speaking of which, she became a little angry.

The romantic affairs in the capital city were endless, blooming one after another without a break.

Who knew what it would be like once they reached Jiangnan?

That place was known as a land of allure, likely attracting even more women.

Seeing her sullen, Li Mingjue chuckled and shook his head, then leaned in and coaxed softly, "I will not glance at her even once."

Qi Yu turned her head away, "Look or don’t look, what does it have to do with me!"

She picked up her chopsticks with a lot of pride and began picking up dishes again.

Soon after, they heard Song Yuting shouting loudly outside the pavilion.

Qi Yu frowned, feeling that the dishes on the table had lost their flavor.

Song Ling was the first to sweep the curtains aside and walk in, followed by a noisy Song Yuting.

Qi Yu raised an eyebrow at him, asking what was going on.

Song Ling could only respond with a helpless look, not knowing how he had inexplicably got entangled with her.

Having chased Song Ling all the way here, Song Yuting saw Li Mingjue sitting there and changed her demeanor, sitting down gently and demurely.

Qi Yu sneered inwardly, thinking Song Yuting was deeply emotional, only to realize she was the type who loved whoever she saw.

It didn’t matter, as long as it didn’t affect her meal.

During the meal, Song Yuting was not paying attention to the delicious food on the table, her peripheral vision constantly drifting towards Li Mingjue.

Seeing him constantly busy serving Qi Yu, barely eating himself, she felt a mix of shock and anger.

Resentfully glaring at Qi Yu, she picked up a chicken leg with her chopsticks, deliberately bypassing Qi Yu and placed it in Li Mingjue’s bowl, her tone softly suggesting, "Cousin, the Princess can serve herself, you should take care of yourself first."

All the maids present silently widened their eyes.

Someone actually dared to provoke their Princess face-to-face, seemingly wishing death upon themselves.

Moreover, the Prince’s affection for the Princess was well-known; he wouldn’t eat anything served by someone else.

Now, there was definitely a drama to watch.
