chapter 133.1

“yeah.” shi ye said, “i heard.”

if he hadn’t felt the sweat dripping from shi ye’s palms, wen chi would have thought that shi ye’s mood at this moment was as calm as he showed.

but shi ye’s pretending to be calm still amused him and he squeezed shi ye’s hand tightly: “your reaction is a little cold.”

shi ye didn’t seem to know how to answer his words, so he turned his head and glanced at him, only to let out another ‘hmm’.

wen chi waited eagerly for a long time, only to receive a “hmm”, he scratched shi ye’s palm in frustration.

in the end, shi ye grabbed his fidgeting hand.

“what if i said that since i learned the news, i have been unable to sleep all night, and have even thought about the path the child will take in the future?”

suddenly hearing these words, wen chi couldn’t help being stunned. the next moment, he pulled the corner of his mouth then let out a breath, as if a stone was slowly sliding down on his chest.

the sudden sense of relief made him a little uncomfortable.

wen chi asked: “really? what path have you thought about?”

speaking of this, shi ye frowned slightly, he pondered for a moment and said: “if it’s a boy, we can’t make it too easy for him.”

wen chi asked again, “what if it’s a girl?”

shi ye looked down at wen chi and his brows soft: “i’ll give her whatever she wants.”

wen chi said happily, “other people favor boys over girls, how come in your case it has become favoring girls over boys.”

shi ye shook his head: “actually, i don’t care if it’s a boy or a girl.”

wen chi asked, “then who do you care?”

shi ye paused, then suddenly let go of wen chi’s hand and hugged wen chi. with a little force on his hand, he pulled wen chi into his arms.

wen chi didn’t stand still and threw himself on shi ye’s chest. just as he was about to stand up straight, he felt shi ye’s breath pressing down from above.

“the person i care about the most” shi ye sighed in his ear, “of course it’s you.”

wen chi: ”  “

shi ye’s breath carried an astonishing temperature, instantly lighting up wen chi’s ears.

even though wen chi couldn’t see his own appearance, he guessed that his face and ears must be flushed.

before wen chi could speak, he heard a slightly embarrassing coughing sound from beside him.

he was startled for a moment before realizing that general lin was still watching.

wen chi turned his head with a reddened face and indeed met general lin’s awkward and evasive gaze.

“you royal highness.” general lin saluted and said.

“hmm.” shi ye’s face was much thicker than wen chi’s and he said casually, “he’s inside, find him.”

“yes.”

general lin wanted to leave a long time ago, he saluted again and then disappeared from wen chi and shi ye’s sight as if fleeing.

seeing general lin walking away, wen chi repeated to shi ye what he and the little boy saw in the hidden room.

shi ye’s expression was solemn and when wen chi finished speaking, his expression was already extremely ugly.

the uneasiness in wen chi’s heart surged up again. he wanted to ask shi ye about being poisoned by hua yin but he knew that now was not the time. his confusion and worry about the future made him hug shi ye’s waist subconsciously.

he hugged him tightly, as if he could hold shi ye who was like a floating kite in his palm.

shi ye seemed to feel his emotions and stroked his hair: “do you still remember the way?”

wen chi nodded: “i remember.”

when he left that hidden room not long ago, he knew that he might have to go back, so he made a note of the route he left but for some reason, when he found his way back again, he lost his way.

only then did he discover that the abandoned house was huge and every courtyard had the same orientation and appearance and even the flowers, plants and trees outside looked similar.

among these similar courtyards, wen chi gradually lost his direction and in the end, he had no choice but to stop.

the night was dark and the moonlight was hazy.

even with the light from the fire chasing away the surrounding darkness, wen chi still couldn’t distinguish the difference between these courtyards.

he regretted not bringing the little boy out with him.
