Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart Chapter 507 - 506: I Have My Reasons

Ye Zhi, after thinking it through, revealed a joyful smile. Soon, her peach-like face drooped again...

The Investigation Factory now has ample evidence to prove that she abducted the person. Even if she stubbornly denies it, the beggar who was instructed to buy the knockout drug has already implicated her, with both eyewitness and physical evidence present. What should be done now?

The main issue right now is to escape this cage.

Breaking out would implicate the Ye Mansion, so this thod is not advisable.

Thus, she is left with the Little Traitor. She must take a gamble, even if the Little Traitor knows it was she who did it, with his current power, it won’t be difficult for him to find a reason to exonerate her.

After all, Shen Chen, from "Concubine’s Favor", is also a traitor. Covering for soone is not a big issue for him.

From the two adjacent cells, the cries of won continued.

Due to the dimness of the space, the faint light from several oil lamps was insufficient for Ye Zhi to see the people beside her. The condition of their wounds was unknown. Judging from the cries, they must be severe. Alas.

She curled up in fear, dreading how painful the punishnt must be...

In the darkness, a tung oil lantern lit the way, and a faint sound of footsteps echoed in the cell corridor.

Shen Chen stopped at one of the cells. Inside, a delicate person clad in pink was weakly huddled in a corner, dirty and pitiable. He exclaid, "Ah Zhi."

His eyesight was good, enabling him to see in the darkness, but Ye Zhi could not. She lifted her head and looked towards the source of the sound, uncertainly calling out, "Xiao Chen, is that you?"

She rose and slowly walked towards that direction. As she got closer, she used the lantern to see him clearly.

As Ye Zhi approached, she looked at him with a vacant gaze and suddenly felt wronged. She lowered her head and began to sob softly, "Xiao Chen, you’re here. Are you here to interrogate ? I fear pain. For the sake of our engagent, please be gentle." A whimper slowly escaped her lips.

Shen Chen, moved, softly said, "Do not cry. I won’t torture you."

Qin Yin stepped forward, opened the cell door with a key.

The first thing after opening the door, regardless of her dirty appearance, Ye Zhi threw herself into her fiancé’s arms, tightly hugging him and crying.

This cry was half real and half feigned.

Shen Chen did not notice and gently patted her back in comfort, not thinking much: "I am taking you ho right now. Leave this matter to ."

The delicate girl in his arms whimpered in response, "Mm."

Qin Yin was astonished, slightly furrowing his brows as he asked, "Pri Minister, this might not be appropriate. The evidence is all there; it’s difficult to silence the gossips."

The sobbing girl clutched the Little Traitor’s hand tighter.

Shen Chen’s beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed as he looked down at the little girl in his arms. "Ah Zhi, is he still alive?"

This inquiry carried seven parts of official sternness.

Ye Zhi wanted to deny her involvent, but what ca out was: "He is still alive."

He pulled her away, his face serious, asking, "Where is he now? Why did you abduct him?"

The sound of Ye Zhi’s crying ceased, and she lightly bit her lip: "I have my reasons." She had initially planned to deny everything, but under the Little Traitor’s gaze, her words ca out involuntarily.

In the end, Shen Chen still took her back to the Ye Mansion, not asking too many questions.

As he was leaving, Ye Zhi tugged at his sleeve and weakly asked, "Xiao Chen, I’m earnestly asking you, do you find my nature to be willful and unreasonable?"

After a mont of silence, Shen Chen gently nodded in acknowledgnt.

Ye Zhi’s expression changed abruptly, forcing a smile: "Good, I have reflected on myself in the cell. I will change in the future. I will listen to you from now on."
