Tan Huanhuan and Ji Changzhou felt intrigued and also imitated the adults, kneeling on the prayer mats, mumbling, and finally bowing a few times before stopping.
"Housekeeper Tan, since you’re here, would you like to pray?"
Facing the inquiry from the Ye Family, Housekeeper Tan shook his head: "I don’t need to."
Uh, he felt it would harm his masculine dignity.
In reality, the chubby, squinting Housekeeper Tan, as seen by everyone, didn’t have much dignity~
It was his own perception.
After praying to Buddha, they didn’t head home directly but strolled leisurely within the temple, admiring the ancient temple’s appearance.
The children were playful; Ye Zhi and Tan Huanhuan immediately started a game of chase and hide, running off.
Ji Changzhou, being the little follower, also joined in.
Feng Liuli saw Shen Chen nearby, unengaged, with a calm expression, and couldn’t help but speak: "Xiao Chen can go together to find Ah Zhi."
This child was not particularly lively.
Shen Chen hesitated for a moment, nodded, and dashed toward the direction of the other companions.
The adults watched from afar, not approaching, fearing it would constrain the children.
Liu Qingxi also came to Longhua Temple today.
She had achieved high marks, her father and mother were very happy, and her mother, who rarely took her out, insisted on coming to pray, so she had no choice but to follow.
Her mother had important matters to discuss with the abbot, letting her wait in the courtyard.
Unexpectedly, she saw Ye Zhi and the others not far away, giggling and carefree, lacking decorum.
She also saw the person named Shen Chen, not much older than herself, and recalling the way he left that day, she couldn’t help but want to clarify, stepping forward to him: "Is your name Shen Chen?"
Shen Chen: "..."
The Little Traitor had a calm expression, ignoring her.
Liu Qingxi, although born of a concubine, relied on her lively and cute demeanor, never experiencing rejection; even the National Guardian General’s son and the Crown Prince treated her with courtesy. She pushed the boy: "Hey, why aren’t you talking?"
"Become mute?"
The little girl in a fiery red dress, enthusiastic as flame, radiated light.
If seen by others, they would say: Where did this naive and spirited little girl come from?
Yet to the Little Traitor, he remained nonchalant, ignoring her, walking past.
"Hey, stop."
This girlish shout also attracted the attention of Tan Huanhuan, Ye Zhi, and the others.
Oh, there’s something going on.
Ye Zhi gestured for silence, pulling Huanhuan and Changzhou behind a large water tank to hide, peeking out with three pairs of shiny eyes.
All three had faces eager for drama~
With no intention of resolving the situation...
But their action of hiding behind the water tank was seen by Shen Chen, completely visible, who directly walked towards that spot.
Liu Qingxi had never been so wronged, being disregarded. Her first experience was in the Imperial College’s back hill, and this was the second.
The little girl once again blocked him: "Do you have an opinion about me? Why are you not speaking?"
The girl in red, about his height, with long delicate eyebrows, a cherry red mouth, was unordinary in appearance, very bold, and her speech carried a straightforward aura.
The autumn wind blew gently, making her red skirt flutter.
A boy in ivory-white embroidered cloud crane silk attire, elegantly severe, with brows as picturesque. On the other side, a girl in a red dress with gold cloud pattern trim, gazing sweetly, passionate as fire.
They seemed a perfect match by any standard.
Ye Zhi, watching, felt a thrill: Is this the romantic scene between the male and female leads?
Wow, live action.
But why isn’t the Little Traitor speaking?
