Chapter 138 Becoming Friends
Chapter 138 Becoming Friends
Xiaoyanzi's excitement subsided after Xu Tian interrupted her.
"No matter what, I still want to thank you. Moreover, I came here this time hoping to make friends with you. In the past, I always abided by etiquette and stayed at home every day, so I didn't have many friends. But after meeting you, I actually envy you very much, and hope to have a good relationship like you." Zhihua mustered up the courage to finish this long conversation.
In fact, she was very nervous. She could feel the alienation between herself and Song Qing and the others, and she knew it was because she was going to marry the Fifth Prince. But now she didn't want to waste her time on men anymore. She also wanted to play with Song Qing and the others and become friends with them.
Before Song Qing could speak, Xiaoyanzi said, "What's the big deal? You will be our friend from now on! Just come to us if you have any problems!"
Xiaoyanzi was a little embarrassed towards Zhihua just now, but when she heard that the other party had no friends, her heart full of justice could no longer be suppressed and jumped out.
In the final analysis, she was actually quite grateful to Zhihua and was willing to break off the engagement with Yongqi. Otherwise, she didn't know when she would be able to be with Yongqi!
Zhihua didn't expect Xiaoyanzi to accept her so quickly. In fact, what she feared most was that Xiaoyanzi had a psychological barrier towards her, but now it seems that she was just being petty.
"Thank you, Xiaoyanzi." Zhihua looked at Xiaoyanzi sincerely and said with a smile.
Zhihua is indeed a lady from a famous family. Her manners are beyond words. Her appearance alone is already of the upper class. When she smiles, even Xiaoyanzi can't help but be stared at by such a beautiful woman. She said a little embarrassedly: "No way! It's my duty!"
After saying that, he ran to Xu Tian.
Ziwei and Song Qing both smiled.
"Zhihua, no matter what, I still want to thank you on behalf of Xiaoyanzi. If you were not willing to give up this marriage, we would not know what to do now. You are the most outstanding woman I have ever met besides Qing'er. You are not only a noble lady from an aristocratic family, but also a strong person who bravely faces the secular world. It is my honor to be friends with you." Ziwei actually liked Zhihua, but they stood on opposite sides before and could not be friends.
Song Qing didn't expect that Ziwei would praise Zhihua and even include her in it, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Look, even Ziwei said so. Don't you feel more relieved?" Song Qing looked at Zhihua and said.
"Thank you!" Zhihua felt that there would never be a happier moment than now.
The girls soon became close friends and even planned to go out and play together on their palace leaving day in a few days.

A few days later
Zhihua, Song Qing and Xu Tian changed into casual clothes and went to meet Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei.
The men waiting at the palace gate did not expect to see Zhihua here.
Ertai walked up to Song Qing without thinking much.
Yongqi was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to face it, so he turned around and went to find Xiaoyanzi.
Erkang ran to Ziwei early in the morning to ask what was going on.
Xiao Jian had no one to turn to, so he had to stand there awkwardly.
Xu Tian looked for a long time but didn't see Benjamin. She was puzzled. "Where's Benjamin? Why isn't he here?"
The few people who knew the inside story kept it a tacit understanding.
Finally, Erkang explained: "The emperor recently assigned Benjamin a new task. He is busy with his manuscript and has no time to come today."
"Ah? Rushing to finish a manuscript? What manuscript is so urgent? Can't it be finished one day later?" Xu Tian didn't remember Benjamin being so ambitious in the original drama! Usually he can be seen in almost everything, what's going on this time, it's so weird!
"We don't know about this either, but it's indeed urgent and needs to be completed today." Erkang really speaks nonsense without thinking, without blushing or beating his heart.
"Okay then, where are we going to play today?" Xu Tian asked without further hesitation.
"You guys get on the carriage first! You'll know when we get there!"
Xu Tian did not suspect anything and got into the carriage with Song Qing and the others.
Zhihua had learned about Benjamin's plan from Song Qing and Ziwei in the past few days, so she didn't feel surprised at this moment.
But I am really curious about what kind of confession ceremony this group of painters will come up with.
Outside, Ertai and several others were riding on horses.
"Why is Zhihua coming along? Does she know about Benjamin's plan this time?" Yongqi thought of Zhihua and asked.
"Ziwei said that they have become friends in the past few days, so they invited each other to go out and play together. As for Benjamin's opportunity, we already know about it." Erkang shared the news he had just received from Ziwei with a few people.
"Is this Zhihua the one who was going to marry Yongqi?" Xiao Jian, who had been silent, asked.
"What? Do you want the girl to apologize to your sister?" Ertai joked after hearing Xiao Jian's words.
"That's not what I meant. I was just asking. Besides, she also took the initiative to cancel the engagement. She doesn't need to apologize to anyone. After all, she is just a victim." Xiao Jian was actually a little hostile to Zhihua at the beginning. After all, his sister had been sad for a long time because of Yongqi and even became so sensible.
But the Zhihua he met today was not what he had imagined. At least she was a real lady from a noble family.
"The relationship between these girls is very good now. We can only watch." Yongqi saw that Xiaoyanzi and Zhihua had a good relationship, and said helplessly.

When the carriage stopped, Xiaoyanzi couldn't wait to get off, but Song Qing and Ziwei quickly stopped her.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Be careful and get off one by one. Tiantian sits at the outermost side, so let Tiantian get off first." Song Qing's words still carried a lot of weight, and Xiaoyanzi immediately sat back in her previous seat.
When they just got on the bus, they deliberately let Xu Tian sit in the outermost seat so that she could get off first.
After all, the surprise Benjamin prepared should naturally be seen by the person concerned first!
Xu Tian didn't think much about it and lifted the car curtain to get out. After she got out of the car, she found that Benjamin was standing not far away. There were paintings all around him. He was standing in the center of the painting, looking at her with a smile on his face.
Xu Tian was a little confused. What was going on? Didn’t Erkang say that Benjamin had a drawing to finish? Why was he here?
And why are there so many paintings!
Xu Tian was about to turn around and ask what was going on when Benjamin called her, "Xu Tian."
This time Benjamin directly called Xu Tian by her full name.
Seeing Xu Tian standing there motionless, Benjamin walked towards Xu Tian step by step.
