Chapter 1944: Chapter 1941: Retaining the Guest

Ye Muyu spoke, feeling a bit gluttonous.

Chu Heng had just wrapped up the gauze, and the splint was removed. She would find it much easier to move.

Even though he knew deep down that Ah Yu regarded Lu Sangqi merely as a younger brother, he thought he’d reached a state where he wouldn’t mind their interactions.

But sitting beside them, listening to their carefree conversation for a while, a sudden sour feeling welled up in Chu Heng’s heart; truth be told, he wasn’t happy.

It was because they’d been talking for too long.

Chu Heng found an excuse for himself.

He moved his lips, joined the conversation, and asked, "Beef? Where did the beef come from?"

"We raised it ourselves. Didn’t I tell you before that we bought quite a few dairy cows and regular cows from the Beirong region?"

"Just that we don’t raise many on the manor; I wrote to my parents to raise them in the Northern Region. We can sell them back to the south for some silver."

Chu Heng saw she’d drifted off-topic, but he didn’t remind her. He just listened quietly; even so, he felt comfortable and enjoyed hearing her talk.

After Ye Muyu chatted for a while, she finally returned to the main topic.

"Eh, it’s just that one of the cows on the manor got injured and couldn’t survive, so we had to slaughter it." Speaking of which, for so long, Ye Muyu hadn’t properly enjoyed beef.

"Tonight we’ll have a cow feast!"

Chu Heng noticed she didn’t ask about his reassignment matter, nor did he mention it to affect her mood. He simply nodded and let Su Mei and the others take Lu Sangqi to the front hall first.

He started to take off his clothes, intending to change into casual wear.

Ye Muyu saw him changing clothes and exclaimed, walking over to poke his back: "Why is your shirt all sweaty? Is it really hot?"

Actually, it was already May, and the weather was certainly hot, but Ye Muyu hadn’t seen Chu Heng sweat so profusely.

Chu Heng only felt her fingertips touch his back muscles, and through the clothes, it made his heart itch from the heat.

With a slightly hoarse voice, he grabbed her small hand and said, "What are you doing? Don’t tease."

Ye Muyu didn’t understand: "I was just curious and touched, not teasing."

Chu Heng turned around, seeing her clear and questioning eyes, completely unresponsive. He pursed his sexy thin lips, couldn’t help but grab her fingers, and nibbled them lightly by his mouth.

Originally, Ye Muyu truly hadn’t intended to tease him, but being bitten for no apparent reason, she couldn’t hold back. She struggled to pinch his ear.

"Eh, it’s hot, just fun."

Completely unaware she was igniting a fire, Ye Muyu smiled triumphantly at him, noticing the skin under her fingers getting hotter. It was as if she’d discovered something amusing.

"Ah Heng, your ears are getting redder, like a toy; pinch them, and they turn red."

Chu Heng’s eyes were deep as he looked at her, suddenly raising her chin.

Before Ye Muyu could react, her lips were sealed.

As her breath fell short, Ye Muyu hurriedly patted his chest in struggle.

Her entire body felt weak, lacking strength, and her struggle in Chu Heng’s embrace was clearly more like tickling.

Ye Muyu felt her whole body weakening and her breath was stifled.

Her spine felt numb.

Fortunately, Chu Heng just wanted to teach her a lesson and slowly loosened his grip at the critical moment, letting her lean against his chest and breathe.
