Chapter 1799: Chapter 1796: Agreement
Sure, hereâs the translation:
âSigh, donât worry, itâs just that when I went to buy orchids, the other party seemed to have specifically arranged to meet me.â
âI want to go to the meeting.â Ye Muyu bit her lip, looking at him with some concern.
Chu Heng didnât say anything, but it was already a sign of disapproval.
Ye Muyu wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning her whole body against him, and tapped his chin with her fingers, âSigh, Ah Heng, I know youâre worried about me, but Iâm not that bad either. The Sacred Girl of Southern Border personally invited me. Either sheâs trying to test me, or she has some serious business to discuss. Think about it, I donât even know where I picked up the Yun Tan under my feet. If I go, the other partyâs reaction might actually give me a hint.â
âBesides, if I go with a big fanfare, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border wouldnât dare act directly.â Ye Muyu clung to his neck, analyzing cautiously, afraid that he would immediately reject her.
Chu Heng looked at her, not speaking for a long time, making Ye Muyu a bit uneasy. She reached out and poked his cheek, âWhy arenât you answering me?â
âHow about waiting for two days first? Hmm?â Chu Heng pressed his lips together, taking a step back, placing his hands on her waist, and spoke in a negotiating tone.
Ye Muyu: âWhy?â
âAfter Iâm sure thereâs no real danger, Iâll let you go, so I can be at ease.â Chu Heng couldnât help but toying with her hand, as if he couldnât get enough of it.
Her hand was very soft, and Chu Heng couldnât help but squeeze it. âIf it werenât because she was involved in the Buddhist Light Temple case, the risk wouldnât be so high.â
Ye Muyu immediately understood Chu Hengâs concerns, looked into his eyes and couldnât help but lean over to kiss him gently. She coaxed softly, âAlright, I promise you.â
âAnyway, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border didnât specify when exactly. Iâll reply to her and set it for three days later. However, two days later King Qi will marry Princess Weisaiya, so Iâll attend the banquet first, then go to the meeting.â Ye Muyu calculated the dates and found it quite coincidental.
Chu Heng responded with a hum, which was his way of agreeing to the matter.
âAlright, continue drying your hair. Once itâs dry, Iâll go to rest.â Ye Muyu also picked up a towel to dry her hair.
Chu Heng combed her hair straight, well-maintained, without a single tangle. He felt the hair in his hands was very soft, carrying a familiar fragrance.
He gently kissed the top of her head. Ye Muyu was still muttering about how to find more Southern Border medical books to read. She didnât resist being kissed, just murmured that he should focus on his task and stop fooling around.
Chu Hengâs mouth curled into a faint smile, âOkay, sit up properly. I promise to dry it quickly for you.â
âDonât use your inner strength, just lightly dry it. My hair is just too long,â Ye Muyu sighed, feeling a bit like cutting it, but that thought was only a fleeting one, never really becoming reality.
After her hair was dried, Chu Heng stood up and led her to change her inner garments.
âYouâve come out with your hair still wet, arenât you afraid of catching a cold? Change into something else first,â Chu Hengâs voice was full of resignation as he pushed Ye Muyu inside, handing her a set of clean inner garments.
Ye Muyu smiled, reaching out to take the clothes. Her hair was simply tied up and had already dried, so there was no worry about getting her clothes wet again.
She quickly changed into the inner garments.
âCan I go to sleep first?â Ye Muyu peeked her head out from behind the screen to speak with Chu Heng.
Chu Heng sat back on the soft couch, picking up the documents he had just set aside.
