Ye Zhi wiped his tears while explaining nervously, "Come on, come on, wipe your tears. I haven't been ignoring you. It was you who ignored me. Even when I talked to you, it was so cold and quiet. I was afraid you'd get annoyed with me, hold it against me, so I've been bothering you less."
The Little Traitor's eyes were red, as innocent as those of a red-eyed rabbit, his nose red too, and paired with his crying expression, it was pitiful. In a weak voice, he said:
"I didn't ignore you."
When it came to beautiful people and things, Ye Zhi always had little resistance.
Moreover, facing the Little Traitor, the protagonist, she immediately voiced her feelings: "Actually, it's my brother. He said that if I become too close to you, it could lead to you being sent away from the Minister's Mansion. I'm only seven years old this year, and my brother is fourteen. I'm afraid he'd take it seriously, and at that time, I won't be able to protect you, so I've been worried."
