Capítulo 2060: Chapter 2057: Treating You Well

The news followed that Grand Tutor Deng was summoned to the palace and scolded, even getting a swollen forehead from kowtowing.

The subsequent news was evidently spread by Grand Tutor Deng’s political enemies to mock him.

At the same time, it could also tarnish Grand Tutor Deng’s reputation.

In fact, the effect was quite good; at least Ye Muyu heard Liuye mimicking the words of the common folk, many of whom were cursing Grand Tutor Deng, saying he deserved it.

However, Ye Muyu also knew that these curses from the populace had little actual impact on the Deng Family.

“Lady, there’s talk outside that the master went to the palace to file a complaint, so Grand Tutor Deng was summoned for a scolding. The master is really impressive,” Liuye expressed her sincere admiration for Chu Heng, not just because of his high status in the court, but also for his skill.

“I see.” Ye Muyu couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile. She knew Chu Heng definitely had a way to deal with Grand Tutor Deng; it was just that he hadn’t acted before, probably waiting for the right moment.

She just didn’t know what his next strategy was, but fortunately, she hadn’t entertained the people sent by the Deng Family, which should not affect what Chu Heng was planning to do.

Chu Heng returned after court was dismissed in the evening.

Along with him was a deed to a house.

Ye Muyu saw him return and quickly pulled him over, “I made sweet and sour ribs that you like today. Also, chicken soup is simmered, and the watermelon was chilled in well water—try it and see if it tastes good?”

Ye Muyu served him a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him, looking at him expectantly.

Chu Heng did not disappoint her and took a sip from the bowl, “It’s good.”

Soon, there was another piece of rib in the bowl; he picked it up and ate slowly. The familiar aroma filled his mouth—it was clear Ye Muyu had cooked personally.

“In a good mood? Why personally cook?” Chu Heng rubbed her head, while serving her some food, he asked.

Ye Muyu beamed at him, “How dare you say, your surprise was letting Grand Tutor Deng suffer, wasn’t it?”

“But today Grand Tutor Deng sent someone over with a house deed. I felt something was off, so I ignored it. Did you see them?”

Chu Heng directly placed the house deed in front of her.

Ye Muyu focused her eyes and exclaimed—a house in South City! Not only that, it’s bigger than the one in South City.

It even includes an abandoned garden at the back, connected by a small alley, which can be completely integrated.

“Did you accept it?” Ye Muyu furrowed her brows slightly, not saying anything, but her eyes showed some concern.

Chu Heng looked at her and said, “Don’t misunderstand, I didn’t accept it. I bought it at the original price. We won’t accept things from Grand Tutor Deng, and to be precise, we won’t accept things from others for free in the future.”

As Chu Heng spoke, he recounted how he went to the palace today and allowed Grand Tutor Deng to suffer losses.

Ye Muyu was quite impressed after hearing it.

“Didn’t you plot against Grand Tutor Deng from the beginning?” It’s no wonder Chu Heng thought so; she knew Chu Heng wasn’t someone with simple thoughts. His foresight was too common.

Chu Heng smiled, drank a sip of chicken soup, and didn’t deny it, which meant he indeed calculated Grand Tutor Deng from the start.

Ye Muyu swallowed, and gently patted his shoulder, “Luckily we’re together, otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to be your enemy. This kind of pitfall came out of nowhere.”

“I won’t trap you; I’ll only be good to you.” Chu Heng discontentedly grabbed her hand and gave it a kiss.

Ye Muyu suddenly kissed his cheek, her eyes sparkling like stars, “I know.”
