Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 151: Just Asking

The time holding hands wasn’t long before the little girl let go and rummaged through the wardrobe, dazzled by the selections: "Alright, then I’ll go too. It’s been a while since I last went, and I’ll get to see the Little Fairy."

She instructed Ming Yan to fetch water for washing.

Busy as a bee.

"Is my brother going?"

Shen Chen nodded and replied, "Yes, he’s going too."

This time the little girl got off the bed without wearing shoes, her small feet in white socks stepping on the plush carpet, holding clothes to compare in front of the mirror.

She laughed out loud: "Ha."

"Then later, I’ll ride the same carriage as you, and my brother and father will ride another one, to avoid him giving you a hard time."

Immediately offering a solution.

Shen Chen was about to say something: "You don’t need to worry, me and..." halfway through, he was interrupted by another voice.

"Miss, the water is here."

The door was pushed open.

A gust of cold wind blew into the room, and was quickly shut.

Ming Yan swiftly brought in the hot water, placed in a copper basin where steam rose abundantly, setting it on the stand.

The third lady feared the cold and would only be satisfied with water at a high temperature, as she put it: wash slowly.

After placing the basin, Ming Yan stood aside with her head bowed: "Miss, you’re really afraid of the cold. Every winter is so difficult for you."

Since the beginning of winter, the young lady hasn’t stepped out whenever possible, choosing to eat indoors whenever she could. If it weren’t for Shen Chen coming to call today, even if she knocked down the door, the little girl inside wouldn’t have opened it for her.

She was grateful to the little girl sitting at the vanity, having heard from Mrs. Ye that it was the little girl who insisted on redeeming her. Ming Yan had been considering that if Mrs. Chun truly made her serve clients, she would end her life with three feet of Bai Ling.

She refused to live a life where everyone had tasted her lips.

During her days at Yanyu Building, she saw plenty of the ugly faces of men.

Ming Yan couldn’t agree with that life.

Whatever Master Zhi Chen’s intentions were towards her was his business, and whether or not to forget was hers.

"Every winter..." Ye Zhi’s fair pink face wrinkled into a bitter expression: "Every winter is so hard. Sigh, in the future, I’ll go to Jiangnan every winter, where it doesn’t snow and it’s not this cold."

The Little Traitor teased her: "Your mother certainly won’t allow it. Once the Imperial College goes on break, it’s close to the end of the year and nearing the Spring Festival, and after the Lantern Festival, it’ll be time to return to the academy. There’s no time."

Salt-water rinse, towel to cleanse the face.

Ye Zhi called Ming Yan to comb her hair, then continued: "And there’s the academy. Don’t mention those two words ’academy’ to me, just hearing it annoys me. By the way, did you do the assignments the teacher gave us?"

"Yes, I finished them."

The expected answer, Ye Zhi quietly asked again: "Could you help me, help me with my homework..."

After the Lantern Festival, there were only ten days left to go to the academy, and the manuscript that the teacher had assigned had been left to gather dust in the corner.

It’s not the other teachers she’s afraid of, mainly Mr. Qin, whose ruler strikes hard enough to make Huanhuan cry for two days!

The Little Traitor smiled: "No way, do it yourself."

Ye Zhi said listlessly: "I just knew you wouldn’t, I was just asking."

Ming Yan combed the little girl’s jet-black, soft hair, preparing to style it as she usually did in a Surprised Swan Bun.

"Today, don’t style it in a Surprised Swan Bun, do a Ling Yun Bun for me instead."

"Alright," she replied as her movements immediately changed.

Ming Yan’s hands moved gently yet firmly, styling a tight and neat bun, looking beautiful. Ye Zhi praised: "Ming Yan, you style so beautifully, I love having you do my hair, Ah Tao gets envious."

"The more you style, the better you get."
