Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 111: I’ll Always Trust You

The next day, they didn’t go to the academy. That night, everyone had a harmonious and happy appearance, except for one person~

This person is the Little Traitor.

Little Traitor doesn’t know what Ye Lin said that day, but Ye Zhi hasn’t spoken to him for the past few days.

His heart was inexplicably heavy~

During the day, it was fine, with Teacher’s lessons keeping him focused and not distracted.

But before bedtime at night, it would linger in his mind, and his heart felt blocked.

Yet Ye Zhi acted as if nothing was wrong, playing with Qinglian, Huanhuan, and Ji Changzhou, treating them all the same.

Even when he proactively stepped forward to talk, she had an attitude of ignoring him, making the Little Traitor uneasy.

The night grew deeper and quieter.

Shen Chen couldn’t sleep, so he donned a cloak, opened his door, and stepped out of his room.

After autumn arrived, the chill became more pronounced, slightly cold.

With a thought in mind and feelings unsettled, he unknowingly walked to Qingyi Garden.

The lights in the garden had been extinguished, leaving it in complete darkness.

She must be asleep.

Gazing at the two red doors, Shen Chen stood silently in front, saying nothing for a long time.

"Xiao, Xiao Chen? Is that you?"

An illusion appeared in Shen Chen’s ears, hearing a little girl’s crisp voice, and he shook his head.

However, the illusion became more and more real...

Ye Zhi approached, and upon confirming it was him, her tense little face slightly relaxed, patting her chest in fright: "Shen Chen? Is it you? Turn around, you’re wearing white clothes in the middle of the night trying to scare people. I just saw you there, thought it was a ghost, and almost screamed. I’m most afraid of ghosts."

Afraid of scaring her, Shen Chen hurriedly explained: "It’s me, I’m not a ghost."

"Then why are you wearing white clothes here to scare people?"

Shen Chen: "..."

He didn’t know how to answer her.

Ye Zhi didn’t argue further and motioned to go inside: "Alright, not going to talk to you anymore. Ah Tao is asleep, I’ll go in quietly so I don’t disturb her."

Ignoring him again, the feeling of blockage in Shen Chen’s heart resurfaced, and he softly said:

"Ah Zhi, why are you ignoring me?"

These days, why is she ignoring him?

The entrance wasn’t far from Ah Tao’s room, and fearing they’d disturb Ah Tao, Ye Zhi led him a bit farther away to a pavilion to talk.

"I’m not ignoring you, actually, it’s you; weren’t you always ignoring me before? Anyway, we don’t have much to say."

This Little Traitor, staying up in the middle of the night talking about this...

Shen Chen shook his head to defend himself, unknowingly a tear wet his eye in the dark, and his voice choked: "No, before you often bullied and teased me, I was afraid of this being another new scheme of yours, so I didn’t let down my guard, but now, even if this is a new scheme, I accept it."

"You ignoring me makes my heart feel blocked and uncomfortable."

"From now on, I will trust you."

"Ah Zhi, please don’t be angry with me. I won’t do that again in the future."

Having said that, he began to sob.

The surroundings were silent, his voice was small, like a kitten’s whimper.

This, who can bear it...

No matter how he would later have the world at his fingertips, wield power over the world, at this moment he was only eight years old, just a child longing for friends to play with.

Ye Zhi suddenly panicked, what’s happening? "Hey, hey, hey. Don’t cry."

In a fluster, she clumsily pulled out a plum blossom handkerchief to wipe his tears.

She made the Little Traitor cry, the consequence would be severe...

In truth, it wasn’t just the worry of her own demise, but a vague feeling, mostly personal desire, not wanting him to be sad, for to her, Shen Chen was now a good friend.

The young boy had brows as beautiful as a painting, a line of tears falling, and his sobbing actions not only didn’t stop, but seemed to intensify.
