Shengjing Noble

Chapter 446 Do whatever you want

It must be said that among the three brothers, Su Shengming is the type that girls like the most.

He has peach blossom eyes, dimples, a tall nose, fair skin, and upturned mouth corners. With a slight smile, he looks like a handsome and evil young man with a hint of ruffian spirit.

No wonder he has always been surrounded by beautiful women over the years.

However, Su Shengming doesn't like everyone. There are many women who cling to him, but there are almost no ones who he really cares about and responds to.

Perhaps it was because of the hurt he had experienced before that made him more cautious and serious about matters of the heart and no longer act as he pleases.

What Su Lanyin was worried about was that Su Shengming's enthusiasm would end up in a cold reception.

Because she understood that Miss Xingyue, also known as Song Huaizhi, had met so many men over the years that she probably no longer had any expectations for love.

So she was worried that Su Shengming would have a one-sided love and end up hurting himself.

"Girl, actually I think Miss Song is pretty good too. How about we match them up?" Cuizhu asked.

"Don't match them up randomly. I only see that Third Brother is interested, but I don't see that Miss Song has any interest in him. If they are really attracted to each other, they will be together sooner or later even without our help. Cuizhu, remember, take care of yourself and don't interfere in other people's lives."

Cuizhu curled her lips and muttered softly: "The girl said so, then why do you care about her?"

"I take care of her according to her own wishes. If she doesn't want to, I won't force her. What's more, she is also useful to me."

"This servant... doesn't quite understand."

Cuizhu was just a little maid. She didn’t understand profound principles and looked at Su Lanyin with a pure and confused expression.

"Forget it." She shook her head and sighed, "As long as you eat well and drink well and live a safe and healthy life, I will be satisfied."

"Thank you, Miss, for your kind words, hehe..."

"Let's go back."

"Yes."

……

A few days later.

After Song Huaizhi lived in the Lu family for a while, the Fifth Prince Fu Mingli did not cause her any trouble again.

This made Song Huaizhi feel relieved temporarily, and she was even more looking forward to the days to come.

Today is the annual Reunion Festival in Sheng Dynasty. At this time every year, the family gets together to make dumplings, which is also a custom.

Song Huaizhi had only celebrated festivals with her parents when she was a child. Ever since she fell into prostitution, she has never celebrated a similar festival again.

Early in the morning, Lu Wanjun took the lead in arranging the festival and assigned tasks to everyone.

Whether it was the master or the servants, everyone was busy and the whole family was happy.

"Lanyin, go to the kitchen and check on the meat filling. Shengyan, go check on the dough to see if it's done. Go find two more people to come over. With so many people eating dumplings, we'll need more people to make them..."

Seeing everyone busy, Song Huaizhi, as a guest, moved over somewhat embarrassedly.

"Madam, although I don't know how to make dumplings, I can still help. How about you give me something to do?"

Lu Wanjun watched her fall into deep thought. It would not be good to not let her help, as it would be like excluding her. Isn't this a disguised form of isolation?

So she said bluntly: "Oh, I almost forgot about you, Huaizhi, go buy some things for me. Here is the list. You can't carry it by yourself, so let Lao San go with you."

"Yeah, okay, I'll go right away."

Song Huaizhi happily took the order. In the past, she could only perform to make money, but now she can do something else valuable.

Seeing this, Su Shengming immediately asked someone to prepare a car and took her to the market.

Today is a festival and the city of Shengjing is extremely bustling. The most prosperous East Street is packed with people.

The carriage couldn't get in, so it had to stop outside the archway. Su Shengming took Song Huaizhi in to walk in to make the purchases.

"Let me see what's on this list."

Su Shengming took the list and took a look at it, then planned: "Let's start from the other end of the street, and then walk back along the street while buying things. After we finish buying everything, we can take the bus back home."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. But I've never gone out to buy things by myself, so I have to rely on you to lead the way." Song Huaizhi said a little embarrassedly.

"Don't worry about that. I'm very familiar with this street. I grew up here. Just follow me. But there are so many people here, so you have to follow closely. Don't get lost."

"Ah."

Song Huaizhi nodded, then reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

The two walked forward and soon merged into the crowd. It was so crowded that they couldn't see the road under their feet, as if they were being pushed.

Before she had walked a few meters, the thin Song Huaizhi was pushed to the side of the road and almost fell down.

She stood on tiptoe anxiously to look for Su Shengming, but because she was not very tall, she could not see anything.

"Third brother? Third brother, where are you... Third brother!"

She was panicked. After all, it was her first time to be in such a large crowd, and she lost all sense of security for a moment.

Just when her eyes turned red with anxiety and she was about to cry, a warm and strong hand grasped her wrist.

Looking in the direction of that hand, not to mention others, it was Su Shengming.

He squeezed through the crowd with difficulty to find her. In order to avoid being separated by the crowd again and also worried that some men would take advantage of her, he quickly stretched out his arms to protect her.

"Don't be afraid, just follow me, I will protect you."

Song Huaizhi's eyes were a little moist. She nodded, and moved forward a little bit under his protection.

"Look, it won't be crowded this way, right?" Su Shengming said with a smile.

Song Huaizhi nodded with a red face, but noticed that she was being protected in his arms, while he was being squeezed by others and was feeling a little tired. She felt touched for a moment.

In the past, those men only coveted and possessed her. When had they ever been so gentle and considerate to her?

Moreover, the look in Su Shengming's eyes when he looked at her was more of care and concern, which made her feel warm in her heart and once again felt the happiness of a big family.

The two walked from the street to the end. Even if Su Shengming bought something that needed to be held, he did not give up and used his other hand to protect her the whole time.

Finally coming out of the East Market, the two breathed a sigh of relief.

"Great, we've bought everything." Although Su Shengming was a little reluctant, he let her go immediately and didn't dare to cross the line.

Song Huaizhi blushed and nodded: "Before we leave, let's check the list. If we miss anything, we can buy it back in time."

"Well, that's fine. You read and I'll find."

"Okay, first the water chestnut cake and maltose..."

Song Huaizhi read out the items on the list one by one. Su Shengming briefly looked through them and found that one item was indeed missing.

"I really forgot to buy something. You are really careful. If I go back like this, my mother will scold me again."

"It's okay, let's go buy it?"

"No, it's too crowded inside. Please don't go in. Wait here for a while. I'll go buy it."

"Well, it might be faster if you go by yourself. I'd just be a burden if I follow you."
