Chapter 133:  Chapter 131: The Hearts of Husband and Wife Meet and Their Feelings Flow Unceasingly

The Carriage Shop Nan Tianzong mentioned was a small business in Liuping Town that transported goods to the county city every morning. The shopkeeper behind the shop was very mysterious, and no one had ever seen him.

When the two arrived, several carriages were about to leave.

“Find a seat yourself; we’re about to set off. Hurry up!”

Liu Sisi didn’t bother with anything else, so she randomly climbed onto a nearby carriage and sat down next to the driver’s seat. The carriage soon began to move forward.

At the moment, the day was still a little dim, with a thick fog surrounding the early autumn morning. The carriage traveled through the fog and followed a winding mountain path.

After rushing along the journey, it was already sunny and the dense fog had dispersed by the time they entered the county city.

After getting off the carriage, the two headed straight for the county government office.

“You wait here for a while; I’ll go take a look first.” Nan Tianzong instructed.

Not long after, he returned and led Liu Sisi into the county government office.

The office faced south with a symmetrical layout. The entire architecture was orderly and well-proportioned, with stone lions placed on either side of the main entrance. Under the flying eaves and ridge beam of the roof, there was a plaque inscribed with “Macheng County Government Office”, and on both sides, there were Blade Runners who guarded the door, looking extraordinarily imposing.

Liu Sisi followed closely behind Nan Tianzong with her head down half-heartedly, playing the role of an Attendant Student dutifully.

“Stop! Who are you?” The dungeon prison guard stopped the two.

Nan Tianzong took out a token, quickly stepped forward, and whispered something in the guard’s ear.

Liu Sisi, who was standing far away, saw Nan Tianzong waving to her. With a sudden burst of joy, she hurriedly approached him.

“Let’s go! You two better catch up.”

The governmental office’s runner glanced at Liu Sisi casually before continuing onwards.

Perhaps they had been instructed, because the governmental office’s runner who led the way did not say a word from beginning to end. He dutifully brought the two to the door of a dungeon prison and then turned and left.

“Ye Lei! Ye Lei!”

The dungeon prison was pitch black, and the firelight from the torch could only illuminate an area with a radius of about five feet. Liu Sisi couldn’t see Di Yelei’s location, so she could only call out to him softly.

“Sisi? I’m here. How did you get here?”

There was a sound of chains and shackles clanking, and soon, the noise came closer to where Liu Sisi was.

“Ye Lei, I came to see you, Ye Lei?”

Liu Sisi stretched out her hand, put it through the gap in the cell door, and grabbed his hand. As always, his broad and thick palm firmly wrapped around her small hand, providing a reassuring feeling.

“It’s really you? Sisi.”

Through the gap in the cell, he suddenly embraced Liu Sisi in his arms.

The two hugged each other tightly, with only the prison bars separating them.

“Little fool! You silly girl! Sisi, my Sisi…”

Di Yelei was both happy and heartbroken, unable to control the anger in his heart, and spoke in a low reprimanding tone.

“What are you doing in the county office? And how did you get in? Didn’t I tell you to wait for me at home? I’ll be back soon. Why didn’t you listen to me? Why are you so foolish? You’re such a fool! You…”

The continuous reprimands caused Di Yelei’s inner anger to boil even more. He tightly held her body, wishing he could squeeze her, along with the prison bars, into his own body.

The difficulties she must have faced traveling such a long distance from the Upper Village to the county city as a weak woman were evident.

“Ye Lei, I miss you…”

Although she had promised not to cry, tears still slid down her cheeks.
