[I really don’t understand, is the science student mindset so deeply ingrained? Yan Jin can now get first place in the monthly exams, how can she not appreciate the exquisiteness of Lin Meimei’s lines?]

…

[The sister above, how much did Yu Shu pay you? I’ll pay double, how can you speak against your conscience? You call that appreciating Lin Meimei’s lines? Clearly Yu Shu got the acting bug and wanted to show off, but Yan Jin didn’t play along.]

Although Yan Jin was an exception, Song Qiong Shi still hadn’t given up on winning over Yu Shu.

After all, Yu Shu was too much like the Phoenix Lord. If they could get Yu Shu on their boat and have him whisper pillow talk, the eldest princess’s position as crown princess would be set in stone.

But to win over Yu Shu, Yan Jin was an insurmountable obstacle.

Although Song Qiong Shi wasn’t the kind of soft-hearted person, facing Yan Jin’s face still made Song Qiong Shi a bit apprehensive.

Song Qiong Shi did mental preparation for several days before convincing herself to take action against Yan Jin: with Yan Jin’s face, she wouldn’t have a good ending if she went to the capital anyway, so one could say Song Qiong Shi was giving Yan Jin an early release.

Gu Ao Yu was quite shocked to learn that Song Qiong Shi was going to take action against Yan Jin, “Although Yu Shu doesn’t agree to our persuasion, we can just kidnap him at worst. Why go this far? To actually take action against Yan Jin, a commoner who can’t change anything.”

“You don’t understand.” Song Qiong Shi closed her eyes, “Yan Jin absolutely cannot appear in the capital.”

Yan Jin, who was reading a book, suddenly paused.

[Yan Jin Host, what’s wrong?]

Song Qiong Shi wanted to win over Yuanyuan, but was repeatedly rejected by him.

Anyone would feel uncomfortable after being rejected multiple times, let alone Song Qiong Shi who was an imperial relative.

This matter definitely wouldn’t be let go by Song Qiong Shi just like that, she must have another move.

Thinking of this, Yan Jin turned to ask Yu Shu, “Yuanyuan, in ancient texts, if a supporting character wanted to frame the protagonist, how would you write it?”

Yu Shu answered without hesitation, “Of course it would be using that kind of drug to ruin the protagonist’s reputation.”

“The stricter the propriety of the era, the more successful this kind of framing will be.”

After saying that, Yu Shu reacted, “Xiaoxiao, why are you suddenly asking this?”

“It’s nothing, just asking.” Yan Jin silently crossed out this option in her heart.

With her and Yuanyuan’s current relationship, if someone really found them lying on the same bed, everyone would just assume they were doing the deed without closing the door, not that they were immoral and shameless.

If Song Qiong Shi really went mad in the head and used this move, the scheme definitely wouldn’t succeed, but Yuanyuan would certainly be very happy.

Of course, Yan Jin herself would also… *cough*. It couldn’t be said, it couldn’t be said.

Song Qiong Shi has no romantic feelings for the Phoenix Lord
