Sorry, My Wife Has a Hole in Her Brain Chapter 12

Su Wenqing knew that nothing good would come out when this "young lady" had a flash of inspiration. If she wanted to gossip, she could just gossip. But why did she have to touch upon a minefield? The girl next to her was the main wife of the Third Prince before she was reborn!

"Go ahead," Su Zhining said coquettishly, "Father and the others are not here, there are no outsiders here!"

Su Wenqing laughed awkwardly twice. What do you mean there are no outsiders? There are no insiders here!

Su Zhining pulled Su Wenqing to stop her from moving forward. Her clear and innocent eyes were full of threats. "Will you tell me or not?"

Su Wenqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw this. She suddenly had the illusion that she was back in kindergarten. Will you tell me or not? If you don't, I will break up with you.

Su Wenqing smiled helplessly and said, "I really don't like the Third Prince. It's all a misunderstanding."

Su Zhining didn't believe it. "If you don't like the Third Prince, why do you always approach him every time you see him?"

Su Wenqing was speechless. She really couldn't explain this question clearly. Couldn't everyone just assume that she was mentally ill? Was it necessary to ask so much to a mentally ill person?!

Su Zhining thought Su Wenqing was shy, so she shook Su Wenqing's hand as she walked, "Oh, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I heard that the Third Prince's mother is looking for a wangfei for him. How about I help you talk to Grandmother? Grandmother loves you very much, she will definitely try her best to help you if she knows."

Su Wenqing almost wanted to kneel down to this young lady. Her tone was earnest and sincere, and she was almost crying. "I know that Second Sister is beautiful and kind, and you really love me, but the matter of the Third Prince is indeed a misunderstanding. I have someone else that I love, and it's really not the Third Prince. If Second Sister asks Grandmother to help me propose marriage to the Third Prince, then you are really harming me."

Su Zhining's eyes lit up. She automatically filtered out the context and only noticed the phrase "I have a crush on someone". "Who is that? I don't know anything about it. Tell me, which family is he from?"

Su Wenqing looked at the gossip fire burning in Su Zhining's eyes and swallowed. Gossip is indeed women's nature regardless of age or time!

Su Wenqing pretended to be about to cry. She lowered her head and said, "I...I...Second Sister, please don't ask."

Su Jinsheng watched Su Wenqing's acting coldly from the side. She raised her red lips with a sarcastic smile and said in a light tone, "We are sisters. What is there to be shy about? Is this just an excuse made up by Third Sister?"

Su Zhining pouted when she heard this, "Yeah, if there really is such a person, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

Su Wenqing wanted to go back two minutes and knock herself out. She had been blindly finding nonsense excuses. Now she was in a dilemma. All the men in this book whose names she could remember were related to the heroine Su Jinsheng. She didn't want to compete with the glamorous heroine for men. She just wanted to stay as far away from this Buddha as possible.

"Go ahead," Su Zhining urged, "Go ahead, and we promise not to tell anyone."

Su Jinsheng smiled, "The Third Prince is a man with both civil and military talents. As soon as Guifei niangniang expressed her intention to choose a wife for him, many noble ladies in Anjing City rushed to submit a post. There is nothing shameful about liking the Third Prince. Time waits for no one, so Third Sister, you better think it through."

*Guifei: Noble Consort. One of the highest ranks in Chinese imperial harem system.

*Niangniang: A term of address for the empress and imperial concubines.

"Xie Shian, Young Master Xie," Su Wenqing suddenly remembered a man who had nothing to do with Su Jinsheng. In this Mary Sue heroine's rebirth novel, Xie Shian was simply a breath of fresh air. He was the only male character who appears frequently, looks good, and had no feelings for the heroine.

As for the reason, well, according to the speculation of many fans of the novel, Xie Shian definitely likes the male lead, Xiao Yun. Otherwise, why did other people live and die for the female lead, but he lived and died for the male lead!

"The person you like is Young Master Xie?!" Su Zhining exclaimed, "How is this possible?!"

Su Wenqing nodded shyly, praising herself in her heart for being a genius. Su Jinsheng had no contact with Xie Shian before her rebirth, so she didn't have to worry about running into Su Jinsheng's minefield.

Moreover, she was not afraid even if this matter got out. Since Xie Shian liked the male protagonist Xiao Yun, he would definitely not marry her. And she did not have to worry about rumors. In the book, Xie Shian was a master strategist who could win battles from afar, and refuting rumors was a piece of cake that could be solved with just a few snaps of his finger.

Su Jinsheng: "But I remember that you and Xie Shian never had any intersection. Even if you met at the banquet, you just bowed and left."

Su Wenqing lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "When I was young, I went to the palace to pay my respects and was rescued by Young Master Xie. Therefore, I have always been grateful and in love with Young Master Xie. Because of love, I became afraid, so I only dared to watch from afar."

Su Jinsheng frowned slightly. She remembered that it was the Third Prince who had rescued Su Wenqing before her rebirth, and Su Wenqing had had always liked the Third Prince because of this. Could it be that many things were really different from before her rebirth?

Su Wenqing saw the puzzled look on Su Jinsheng's face and was secretly excited. It turned out that if she wanted to clear her name, she had to disrupt Su Jinsheng's perception of her first.

"How come I don't know anything about this!" Su Zhining said in surprise, "You're so tight-lipped that you're even hiding it from me!"

On the path on the hillside by the lake, Xie Shian and Xiao Yun were walking back from the horse farm side by side.

"Those seem to be the three sisters from the Su family," Xiao Yun said jokingly, raising his chin towards the lake. "I've seen them three times in one afternoon. I wonder if it's me or you who's destined with the Su family?"

By the lake, Su Wenqing's voice was as soft as a mosquito's, "You two sisters have promised to keep it a secret, so you must not let father and the others know."

Su Zhining was puzzled and asked, "Why? If you like him, you should have made plans earlier. If you keep putting it off, you will definitely miss this marriage opportunity!"

Su Wenqing blushed, "Although I admire Young Master Xie, but he and I are of different status. In this life, I just want to be able to see him from afar for a few times."

Su Zhining was so disappointed that she said, "What’s wrong with you! Ah, I am so mad at you! Lord Xie and Madam Xie are different from those people in the Wang family. They are all extremely open-minded and never care about the difference between di and shu children. Besides, how can you know it won't work when you haven't even tried!"

On the hillside, Xiao Yun nudged Xie Shian with his arm and said in a teasing tone, "Fate is really a wonderful thing. I wonder, since the beauty is interested, will the hero be interested too?"

Xie Shian: ...If he remembers correctly, when the third young miss of the Su family met him two hours ago, she probably didn't recognize who he was.

Xiao Yun reacted faster than anyone else when it came to romantic matters. He hooked his arm around Xie Shian's shoulder and jokingly said, "I know what you're thinking. What if that girl fell in love with you when you were giving her directions this afternoon? She was lost and anxious, and you appeared like a god, and she fell in love with you at first sight."

"Look, isn't it sung like this in the opera? Look at the Qi River, the green bamboos are lush, there is a gentleman, sharp as a knife."

"I'm so happy for you, my friend!"

Xie Shian couldn't stand it any longer. He pulled Xiao Yun, who was laughing so hard on his shoulder, off his shoulders and said, "Shut up."

"Oh my god! Are your ears red? Hahaha, our Young Master Xie, who remained calm even when facing a catastrophe, would actually be embarrassed by a few love poems."

Xie Shian turned around and glanced at Xiao Yun with narrowed eyes.

Xiao Yun coughed, and quickly made a gesture to cover his mouth. He didn't want to experience the revenge of Young Master Xie at all.
