Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 183: The State Preceptor’s Wrath

Ye Zhi pulled him aside and said seriously, "There’s no mistake, the State Preceptor himself told Qinglian. If you don’t believe it, ask Qinglian."

The Little Traitor glanced sideways at her.

Qinglian looked pure and innocent, agreeing, "Yes."

With her back to the door, she continued, "The State Preceptor also praised Xiao Chen’s exceptional aptitude, it’s unofficially decided. It just needs the State Preceptor to announce it. Xiao Chen, you should be a good disciple of the State Preceptor, sit in the Jade Pavilion and listen to tales of the martial world, observe the winds and clouds, and scheme for the world. Will Xiao Chen scheme for the world in the future? I heard you can also tell fortunes..."

The Little Fairy didn’t notice that the expressions of the three people opposite her were slowly changing.

"Qinglian, that!"

"Ah Zhi, what’s wrong?"

Ye Zhi pointed behind her. A man in a moon-white brocade robe, his hair tied up with a bamboo hairpin, with a face as serene as jade, looked terrifyingly grim.

He stood there quietly, with deep, cold eyes, unclear and gloomy, saying nothing!

This was the first time everyone had seen Pei Wanmu like this.

The slow-reacting Little Princess also sensed the tense atmosphere and walked over, speaking softly, "State Preceptor, you’re here. I brought Ah Zhi and Huanhuan over." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Pei Wanmu kept a stern face, his voice sharp, "When did I ever say that Shen Chen would be my disciple? You’re becoming more and more presumptuous. How can you speak such words carelessly?"

This Little Princess seemed to meddle too much.

The candidate was not yet decided and still needed consideration, but she gratuitously declared it, announcing the candidate was already decided.

Ridiculous, he hadn’t even decided!

Being scolded like this, and in front of her girlfriends, made Qinglian very embarrassed. She tried to smooth things over and save a bit of face, "Didn’t you say last time that Xiao Chen has exceptional aptitude..."

"Enough. I said Xiao Chen has exceptional aptitude, but I didn’t say he would be my disciple. From now on, don’t step into Qi Yun Courtyard without reason."

Qinglian’s words were cut off, and she was given an order to leave.

Ye Zhi realized there might be a misunderstanding, stepped forward to hold the Little Fairy’s hand, and hurried to speak favorably, "State Preceptor, maybe there’s a misunderstanding. Qinglian didn’t mean any harm. There’s no need to be so fierce, besides, we’re just talking about it here, whoever you choose is up to you, it’s no problem."

Before the man opposite could speak, the Little Fairy spoke first.

She looked calm, with an air of detachment, softly saying, "State Preceptor, I understand. Ah Zhi, Huanhuan, it’s getting late, let’s go back."

They had just arrived at Qi Yun Courtyard less than half a stick of incense, and it was still forenoon, how was it late?

It was clearly an excuse.

Ye Zhi turned to remind the Little Traitor, "Xiao Chen, practice your swordsmanship well, we’re leaving first."

Holding onto Huanhuan, the three girls slowly walked out!

From beginning to end, the Little Princess never looked at the State Preceptor once.

The Little Princess was angry, and the consequences were severe~

On the way, Ye Zhi and Huanhuan comforted her the whole way.

Ye Zhi: "The State Preceptor might have some troubles on his mind, which is why he was so angry, he’s not deliberately targeting you."

Huanhuan: "Yes, his voice is loud, but he doesn’t mean any harm. Besides, there’s nothing good about Qi Yun Courtyard, it’s not even as good as our Yangzhou Garden."

Ye Zhi: "It’s not even as good as my Ye Mansion."

Huanhuan: "In time you see people’s true hearts, even if it’s not Xiao Chen, just say so, why be so fierce."

Ye Zhi: "Yes, one day we’ll take Qinglian to Jinmo Courtyard, find Mr. Qian Wei, and let Qinglian watch me practice. The move I’m practicing now, Howling Moon, although not as good as Huanhuan’s, is still very impressive."

The two companions comforted her with their chatter.
