Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 98: Ignore Strangers
In the distance, Ye Family and others couldn’t hear what was happening, but noticed a little girl in red joining the conversation. They assumed she was a familiar playmate and did not go over to greet her.
The child has grown up. When playing together, as a mother, she always needs to leave her little daughter some space.
"Mr. Feng, look at that little girl in red. I suppose she is another new friend of Ah Zhi."
"Ah Zhi, seeing her make friends easily gives me peace of mind as her mother."
Feng Liuli looked over with dim eyes and remarked lightly, "This is a good thing." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
He did not say anything more.
With Housekeeper Tan absent, he seized the opportunity when everyone wasn’t paying attention to secretly sneak back to the Great Hall.
He knelt devoutly before the grand golden Buddha Statue, muttering prayers:
"I beg Buddha, please bless my lady with admission to the Imperial College, keep her safe and sound, and let her make many friends without bad classmates bullying her."
"During this trip to the capital, please bless me to find Fourth Sister. I do not know where she is. Please, Buddha, help me find her. In the future, we will surely offer more incense money. I wonder if Fourth Sister is living a bit better now."
"I wonder if she has enough to eat and wear."
"I pray Buddha to transfer the sufferings that Fourth Sister endured onto me. So many years have passed, I wonder if she would want to see me."
"This disciple is guilty, with no complaint if it leads to death."
Housekeeper Tan murmured for quite a while longer.
Fourth Sister, Master, I’m sorry...
Words for those of us in heaven... and so on.
A passerby who came to worship at the Buddha, saw this chubby uncle’s sorrowful expression, kneeling devoutly before the statue, feeling a twinge of pity for him.
He must have encountered something unfortunate.
May the heavens have benevolence.
After pouring out his heart~
Housekeeper Tan took out a large Silver Ingot from his pocket, dropped it into the Merit Box, and turned to walk out of the hall’s main gates.
With a hopeful heart, there is hope.
Under the big banyan tree.
Tan Huanhuan chatted with Ye Zhi and Changzhou, paying no attention to Liu Qingxi who stood to the side.
Ye Zhi, worried the heroine might hold a grudge, while chatting, secretly glanced at the heroine with a nervous heart.
The girl in red sat down at the curved corridor railing, paying no mind to her stealthy gazes.
Through the oval archway walked in a lady dressed in a luxurious and elegant amber silk dress with golden embroidery.
The lady’s thin face was only slightly better than Mr. Feng’s, with big eyes, reddened rims, grayed pupils, indicating an aged, dimmed gaze, yet her skin was rather white.
She bore some resemblance to the little girl in red.
If guessed correctly...
"Mother, have you finished your business?"
It’s Liu Qingxi’s mother.
Second Madam Liu replied with a stern face and expressionless, "Yes."
"Let’s go."
With just these two simple words, she turned to leave, showing no emotion.
Liu Qingxi, accustomed to her mother’s manner, stood up, dusted off her dress, and skipped after her.
Phew, Ye Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That was Second Madam Liu just now.
The protagonist’s mother, also a woman with a deep mind, best to keep distance in the future.
And keep as far from the protagonist as possible, it was unexpected to encounter her here.
"By the way, Xiao Chen, why didn’t you acknowledge her just now?"
Careful, a wife chasing the crematorium awaits.
Since the girl in red left, Shen Chen’s face softened considerably, appearing more relaxed and adorable with his tender little face, his tone also becoming less stiff: "I am not familiar with her. Why should I acknowledge someone I don’t know?"
Ye Zhi: ...
You two are the official pair, you know.
