Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 325 - 324: Delivering a Letter to the Little Traitor

"Stay hidden here and wait for me. Once I’ve dealt with those people, if everything goes smoothly, I might arrive first. If I’m a bit slower, you all will be here before me."

The final meeting point Ye Zhi indicated was marked on the map as: the Ruined Temple.

Today, she specifically inquired casually—this ruined temple is rarely visited, located on the outskirts of Bronze City.

After rescuing the people, if Xu Hou Niang reports to the authorities, there will inevitably be a search around the city, which could expose us, and that wouldn’t be good.

To be cautious, let’s first hide at the ruined temple for two days~

Once Little Traitor comes down the mountain, we’ll return to Capital City together. By then, Xu Lu’er might travel with us; she’s decided not to stay in Bronze City any longer.

Xu Lu’er escaping is an easy task, but her brother is still young, and she has no skills to make a living. Bringing her younger brother means struggling to support themselves. The stepmother is malicious towards her, but can’t have more children due to her age, and she’s decent to the brother, hoping that someday, someone will take care of her in her old age. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The two confirmed some last details.

The girl’s gentle whispers won’t escape from the tightly closed room.

Ye Zhi then reminded her to take some light items hidden under the skirt, and keep more important belongings safe for tomorrow’s escape in case anything falls on the way, before leaving relieved.

Stepping out the door, the swallows swiftly disappeared into the serene moonlit night.

Success or failure hinges on tomorrow.

The next day.

September 3~

The rooster announces the dawn, as the first light of morning shines upon the earth, Ye Zhi woke up and got up early to prepare.

In front of the large bronze mirror, she stuck on a mustache, painted thick eyebrows, applied darker rouge on her delicate pale little face.

Her complexion instantly changed, no longer delicate and pale, appearing somewhat sallow like earth~

Others might want snow-white skin, but she goes against that.

Lu He woke up early too, rubbed her sleepy eyes, swallowed and asked, "Ah Zhi, you’re fussing with your face again? Aren’t we covering our faces during the operation? Why the makeup?"

For the first time, Lu He felt uneasy and anxious about standing up for what’s right.

Ye Zhi tampered with her little face without turning around, "You just don’t understand, there’s no plan without a flaw. What if the face covering falls during a fight and someone sees it? There’s nothing to worry about. I’ll simply wash it off and be a little girl again, leaving myself an escape route."

She paused, turned her head to glance at the girl on the bed~

"Sister Lu He, get up and paint too. Stop sleeping. This is our first mission, and we can’t be careless. If we fail, we’ll be like sheep into the tiger’s mouth, and Luo’er will become a concubine for life."

If you only listen to her and don’t see the person, you’d think Ye Zhi was the older sister.

Following the young girl’s advice, Lu He shook off her lethargic demeanor, perked up and got out of bed, spruced herself up, and joined Ye Zhi at the bronze mirror to paint her face.

Midway through her makeup process, a sudden realization struck her mind as she asked, "Ah Zhi, did you inform Xiao Chen that we’re waiting for him in Bronze City??"

For so many days, she’s been occupied with Xu Family matters and forgot to reach out!

Who knows how many ways there are down Dragon Tiger Mountain. If he doesn’t take the route to Bronze City, but another path...

Coming to Bronze City with Ah Zhi without picking him up would just be a wasted trip?

Lu He stared at the young girl in front of her, eagerly anticipating a satisfying response from her lips.

"Oh, I wrote a note, but have no idea where to find someone to send it up Dragon Tiger Mountain."

Lu He frowned...

Initially thinking she was unreliable herself, turns out Ah Zhi is a bit unreliable too...

She forgot that despite being eighteen, Ah Zhi is only twelve~
