Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 30 What do you think, elder brother, if I were to get my hands on Cousin Shen?
Shen Shuyi blinked, and after a while replied, "I think such a cheap amulet is really not suitable for the noble status of the two young masters of the Marquis's mansion. If it were me, I would definitely throw it in the trash."

How cunning Prince Pei is, using such a method to deal with her. Is this a choice she can make that leads to her death? No matter who she chooses, she will be disliked by the other.

Unexpectedly, Pei Beizhou was also a bit crazy, and he actually argued with her, asking aggressively, "Cousin, you have to choose one. Will you choose your older brother or me?"

Shen Shuyi's brow twitched slightly. They were clearly talking about amulets before, so how did Pei Si turn it into choosing people?

She thought about it and realized that no matter how she answered, it would be wrong, so she simply stepped forward, picked up the amulet, and tore it into strips.

That solves the problem.

“My two cousins ​​don’t need to ruin their relationship over this worthless trifle. I won’t disturb your reminiscing any longer. Farewell.” After she finished speaking, she seemed to have wheels of fire on her feet and disappeared from the Pei brothers’ sight in an instant.

Pei Beizhou watched Shen Shuyi's departing figure, a sinister smile curving his lips: "Cousin Shen seems rather interesting. What do you think, elder brother, if I were to get my hands on her?"

Pei Dongzhou looked at Pei Beizhou with a gentle expression: "This is my fourth brother's matter."

After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

Pei Beizhou looked at the peace charm that had been torn to pieces on the ground, lifted his foot and stomped on it, crushing it into the mud and dust, so that it could no longer be seen in its original form.

He only ever trusted himself; only useless people would use amulets to find solace.

After getting rid of the Pei brothers, Shen Shuyi hurriedly returned to Fusang Courtyard.

She immediately checked the two male leads' feelings for her, and since they hadn't continued to decrease, she felt a little relieved.

The next task was to sing a love song for Pei Nanzhou. Since he couldn't take the shortcuts like last time, the best approach was to sing a simple love song so as not to arouse Pei Nanzhou's suspicion.

Anyway, Pei Nanzhou's affection for her is still okay, it's not like it would drop to rock bottom just because of a love song.

She soon came up with a plan, and then took out the booklet that A-Jian had investigated, which recorded the habits and hobbies of the four Pei brothers in the Marquis's mansion, including the schedule of the places they liked to linger in.

Pei Nanzhou's life was quite simple. Besides his activities in Nanyuan, he also had a habit of going for walks in the bamboo forest.

Aside from that, he had no other hobbies. Moreover, Pei Nanzhou did not hold any official duties and rarely left the Marquis's residence.

If we really want to create a chance encounter, we might as well do it at the Marquis's residence.

The next day, after sleeping until late morning, she decided to go to the bamboo forest to survey the terrain and, incidentally, create a chance encounter.

This time, she chose the song "Bamboo Branch Song," which has only four lines of lyrics. She could even sing the entire song simply by walking face-to-face with Pei Nanzhou.

Last time in the bamboo forest, she complicated a simple matter. Since taking on more and more tasks, she has come to realize that she should actually simplify complex matters.

This time, she didn't let A-Jian follow her, and instead strolled leisurely towards the South Garden.

Nanyuan is the most remote place in the Marquis's mansion. Because Pei Nanzhou likes quiet, and many people know Pei Er's temper, most dare not go near Nanyuan.

If Shen Shuyi weren't on a mission, she wouldn't have come to the vicinity of Nanyuan. Last time she went to the bamboo forest, she deliberately took a longer route, bypassing Nanyuan.

This mission would require her to meet Pei Nanzhou, so she had no choice but to face the challenge head-on.

Little did she know that when she walked a hundred meters away from Nanyuan, someone spotted her – it was Qingfeng, another servant of Pei Nanzhou.

Qingfeng went to the pavilion and reported to Pei Nanzhou: "Miss Shen is heading to the South Garden." Pei Dongzhou, who was playing chess with Pei Nanzhou, had a slight glint in his eyes. How come Shen Shuyi followed him wherever he went? Did Shen Shuyi send someone to keep an eye on him?
He became increasingly certain that the person who kissed him twice was Shen Shuyi, but he had no concrete evidence.

When he arrived at Nanyuan, Shen Shuyi followed him. She was only after the position of the Crown Prince's wife.

But if she really wanted to confirm her relationship with him, why didn't she have someone catch them in the act that day at Heshou Hall? He was unconscious at the time; wouldn't it have been more direct for her to have someone catch them in the act?

By then, he would ruin Shen Shuyi's reputation, and since his grandmother favored Shen Shuyi, Shen Shuyi could easily achieve her goal.

But after he lost consciousness, he was moved to the west wing...

"Young master, should I send Miss Biao away?" Qingfeng's voice rang out.

Pei Nanzhou was about to order the people to leave when he noticed that the young master Pei looked distracted. Before Qingfeng appeared, the young master Pei had never been so absent-minded.

That's strange. Could there be something wrong with my cousin Shen?
He immediately changed his mind, stood up and said, "Let's go out and see. Cousin Shen might have something to ask me."

No sooner had he finished speaking than he caught a glimpse of Prince Pei dropping a chess piece, clearly intending to go out with him.

This is interesting.

He had heard before that Shen Shuyi was very persistent in pursuing Prince Pei, and even wanted to climb into his bed. Prince Pei avoided that woman like the plague, but today he took the initiative to see Shen Shuyi.

Although the reason is unknown, this is enough to show that Prince Pei has become interested in Shen Shuyi.

Shen Shuyi had already bypassed Nanyuan and walked a hundred steps away when she turned back seemingly unintentionally. This time, she saw Pei Nanzhou in white.

Pei Nanzhou was aloof and elegant, and with the addition of white robes, he looked like a celestial being descended to earth.

In addition, his affection for her is the highest among the four male leads, so she is willing to sing love songs to such a handsome man.

Too excited to notice the man behind Pei Nanzhou, she began to sing: "Willows green, river calm, I hear my love singing on the bank. East sun rises, west rain falls, it seems there's no sunshine, yet there is..."

Pei Nanzhou slowed his pace, recognizing the poem as "Bamboo Branch Song." It was clearly a love song; was Shen Shuyi expressing her feelings for him through song?

Shen Shuyi was singing enthusiastically when she saw Pei Dongzhou suddenly walk out from behind Pei Nanzhou.

Her expression froze for a moment, but since the system hadn't notified her to complete the task yet, she didn't want to give up halfway, so she could only grit her teeth and continue singing under the death stares of the Pei brothers.

After she quickly finished singing a song, she still didn't hear the system notification.

Her face turned pale, so she had no choice but to sing it again, clearly and emotionally.

The Pei brothers in front of her looked at her as if she were some kind of evil spirit, clearly unable to comprehend her lewd behavior.

She silently lit a candle in her heart and shamelessly continued singing.

Even after she sang it again, the system still didn't notify her that the task was complete.

At that moment, she looked at Pei Dongzhou and suddenly wondered if she hadn't completed the task because Pei Shizi was also there. Perhaps she would have to sing the whole song to Pei Nanzhou alone to complete the task.

　Hehe
