C285 (2/2)
Song Lingyi heard a man's voice, and that voice was extremely pleasant. It sounded like there was even a hint of a smile on it, but the current Song Lingyi, didn't know who dared to call him cousin, but after thinking for a while, she still didn't know who she was. Qian Ning stood up and bowed, ”His Royal Highness the Prince of Bravehearts.”
”Quiet down, there's no need to call me that outside. Since you call me Miss, why not call me Young Master? Cousin and I are cousins anyway.”
Only then did Song Lingyi start to size up the person in front of him. It was true that he had a cousin in his possession, and that this cousin was the most highly regarded son of His Majesty.
However, the number of times he had met this cousin could be counted on one's fingers. Logically speaking, this His Royal Highness the Prince of Bravehearts should be calling him grandfather, but it was even more impossible to count the number of times this His Royal Highness the Prince of Bravehearts had come to the Duke Palaces.
Song Lingyi and Mu Beiche could not be considered to be familiar with each other, much less Qian Ning. The atmosphere in front of him was a little stiff, so she could only call for a little second brother and add a pair of chopsticks.
Mu Beiche sat down and smiled at Song Lingyi: ”Looks like cousin is very unfamiliar with cousin, that's true, but it doesn't matter, since it's like this, then you can just call me by my name, and I won't be courteous anymore, Cousin Ling Yi.”
”You, are we very familiar with each other?”
”Although we are not familiar with each other, but we are. This King has been paying attention to you for a long time, it is a pity that cousin did not notice me at all.”
Song Lingyi had never met such a lively person, let alone a man, especially this kind of person who had some relationship with himself, but could even speak of things clearly, causing Song Lingyi's face to redden, ”What nonsense are you spouting?”
”It seems like my cousin has never really noticed me.”
”Although I remember that you are my cousin, you have never come to our palace. Why should I remember you?”
”So cousin is angry about this? Then I'll pay my respects to grandfather in a few days. I can have a good chat with cousin.”
”Then, Cousin Beicheng?”
”Sigh, not bad.” Mu Beiche laughed, ”I was drinking. What, is there something troubling you?”
”Yeah, there are so many troublesome things on your mind. Don't tell me that the Cousin Beicheng isn't bothered by them? I normally don't even see you in the capital, but you're always being sent to all sorts of places by the Emperor.”
”That's true, I did indeed spend more time away from home. Otherwise, my cousin would not have lost all impressions of me. You little girl, you're quite quick-witted. You could tell who I am with a single glance.”
”Qian Ning has a good memory. I usually need Qian Ning to help me remember everything.”
”No wonder. Being able to coincidentally meet my cousin today is also very happy. If you have any worries, you can just say them out. I can help you solve them, right?”
Yun Zhan, who was hiding not far away, was so scared that his jaw almost dropped. He did not expect that his own prince would be so unrestrained after letting go, but it was a pity that Yun Zhan was a Paleogene who did not know what a flirting was, if he was here, he would definitely applaud Mu Beiche, who was normally acting like a gentleman, like a tiger.
”Cousin Beicheng, your information is the best. Can you tell me if Ninth Brother really died? I remember that your relationship with him was the best.”
”Ye Fan, I've been looking for him all these years, but there's no news at all. I don't know why this has been circulating in the capital lately, but after so long, the possibility of a living person not getting any news at all is very small. But I won't give up.”
”Cousin Beicheng, I'm really envious of you. You can continuously search for Ninth Brother outside, but I can only wait at home, I can't do anything at all. Grandfather always wants me to give up, I'm really sad …”
”Ling Yi, don't be like this, if I knew earlier, then I wouldn't have talked about this topic with you, don't be sad, how about this, in two days' time we will be going to the temple fair, how about I take Ling Yi to play, when that time comes I'll go see grandpa personally bring you out, and then bring you out for a fair play, what do you say?”
”Really? Cousin Beicheng, are you really taking me out to play?”
”What? You're unwilling? Is it because you're too distant from your cousin? That's really been my negligence for so many years. If you're unwilling, then it doesn't matter …”
”No, cousin. I'm willing.” Song Lingyi could not help but blush a little. Although the person in front of him had not interacted with him for all these years, Song Lingyi had rarely seen people who were so concerned about him, and only Qian Ning felt that it was a little strange. However, their young miss's mood seemed to be a little better, so in the end, Qian Ning did not say anything and just poured wine for the two of them.
After a while, the two of them finished eating, Mu Beiche personally sent Song Lingyi back. Song Lingyi felt that Mu Beiche was a very meticulous person, and could even be said to be a man that Song Lingyi had rarely seen before. For some reason, she felt a little anticipation to go out with Mu Beiche, but this time, what she was looking forward to was not going out to play, but going out with Mu Beiche.
However, what she did not know was that when Mu Beiche turned around, his expression had completely changed.
