Trial Of Love Chapter 124 - Could Shen Really Like Me?

In the end, Yuexi An, Deng Lun, Lin Qin, and Yixing Zhang ended up hiking for the closing while the rest headed home.

Yuexi An looked worn out already since she couldn't sleep a wink for it was the first time she slept outside.

'That b*tch she actually ruined everything for me.'

After the hike, the cast and crew all headed home.

The crew went back to the company and check all the footage. They all wanted to find out how Li Zi actually found the golden token and how she got it. Since the crew arranged to film her kept insisting she did it all on her own and did not even ask for help, they just needed to see for themselves.

As they all watch the screen, Li Zi all alone looking around.

The girl was walking alone, and the rain was pouring in heavily. She seems to be searching for the golden token; she pa.s.sed by loads of resources but did not take any of them in the end. 

They continued to watch her until she ended up to where the golden token was hidden, while she took shelter from the rain.

The girl noticed something hanging on one of the tree branches. She observes it carefully. She then walked closer to the tree and tried pulling the closest branch checking if it's strong enough. Then, she steps back a few distances from the tree and bloated towards the tree grabbing hold of the branch (she checks earlier) and pulled herself up and reaching out using her other hand to grab hold of the next branch.

With her bare hand the girl climbed up the tree and grab the golden token, she then climbs down the tree, halfway down, she just jumped and landed perfectly without a single scratch.

Everyone clearly saw what happened in the footage yet couldn't believe what they saw.

"Director, she really did it all on her own."

Director Mo was still in a trance of everything, it was just so impossible for a girl like her to climb it so easily when the crew themselves, even found it hard to climb it, "I can see that…"

"Wow, Li Zi is amazing. Was she raised by monkeys? I never thought such an innocence and elegant girl would actually know how to climb a tree. She so wild..."

"This will surely give us a good rating."

While everyone was all excited, the man just fixed his eyes on the girl. His curiosity about the girl's ident.i.ty grew more.

Imperial Garden Plaza.

Meanwhile, in the Zhao's residence. The girl was resting on the sofa looking so exhausted.

The old man walked in saw the girl looking so tired. "Darling, are you alright?"

Elizabeth sat up as she smiled seeing the old man and explained, "I'm fine Grandpa, I just realize I need to work out more. I climbed a tree yesterday and realize I can't climb it as I used to."

The old man laughed. "You should have asked you, uncle, to take you to the training academy then."

Elizabeth ponders on it for a moment and realizes it was actually a good suggestion, "That's actually not a bad idea Grandpa."

The old man sat down beside the girl as she laid back down and used the old man's lap as a pillow.

"Darling, don't exhaust yourself too much. You don't necessarily have to do this much…" The old said while caressing the girl's hair.

The girl smiled seeing the old man concern for her, "I know, but it's fun…"

"What should we do later, aren't you free?" Elder Chief Zhao asked.

The girl ponders for a moment on what they should do. "Up to you, Grandpa, I'll do whatever you wish to do today."

Elder Chief Zhao thought for a moment, what's the best way to spend time with his granddaughter, "Alright, how about we invite your Grandpa Yang and the others to go fis.h.i.+ng with us to the lake now."

"Sure Grandpa, I'll go get ready now."

"I'll call him now. Go get ready…"

The old man went to his study and called his friends. Of course, all of them were eager to go out, especially since they get to spend time with the Young Princess.

On the outskirts of the city, in a large private lake load of political and military men along with their wives and grandchildren gathered.

President Yang smiled seeing the girl again, "Lizzy, how come you look so pale?"

"Grandpa Yang, I might be because I was soaked in the rain yesterday, but I don't feel sick at all. Maybe, I'm just lacking energy that's it…" Elizabeth replied ensuring everyone she was well.

Whilst the men fished for some fish, Elizabeth along with the other women prepared some food for them to partake. They used the caught fish and cooked them as well.

As they enjoyed each other's company, not far reporters gather and took pictures of the event.

"d.a.m.n it, were too far. We can't get a close look at the Young Princess."

"What a great news this will be! To think almost all the leaders and most powerful people in Imperial are in one place."

All of a sudden, a car arrived at the site everyone wonder who the person could be.

"I wonder who else was supposed to come?"

"I'm sure everyone is here, maybe it's someone's child or grandchild…"

Everyone was right, it was indeed someone kin.

"Auntie Li Zi."

The young boy came out screaming out of the car leaving his mother behind. He runs as fast as he could and ignore the people around him.

When Elizabeth saw who it was, she beamed such joy seeing the young boy. "Young Master Yang."

Young Master Yang jumped into the woman's arms, "Auntie Li Zi, you can just call me Yang."

"Okay…"

The two brought a smile to everyone's face, they were strict parents, of course, since people looked up to them. But the two were amongst the lucky children who were not brought up with such strict manners.

Young Master Yang along with Elizabeth went to greet everyone. Afterward, the two of them went and try to catch their own fish as well.

Then all of a sudden, Elizabeth was left speechless, hearing the young boy's question.

"Auntie, do you like Uncle Shen?"

Elizabeth ponders for a moment to how she should answer the boy's concern. He was not like other young boys; he was mature for his age. "I don't know about that anymore…"

'"How come?" Young Master Yang asked whilst looking at the girl.

"I'm sure he doesn't feel anything for me so it's best I move forward…" she replied.

"But Auntie, have you confirm it for yourself?" He asked.

"I have…" She replied with such depress expression

"Did you directly asked him?" He asked.

Elizabeth felt like laughing to think she'll have such a conversation with a kid. "I haven't…"

"Then, you don't know Uncle Shen's true feelings. Yours just a.s.suming things. If you ask me, Auntie, I think Uncle likes you and you two look perfect for each other. You'll be Little Yan's mother and she'll be so happy."

Elizabeth was silence for a moment, she ponders on what Young Master Yang was saying. It is true she hasn't confirmed anything at the same time, even w.a.n.g Ji and Liying already said the same thing as well.

'Could Shen really like me?'
