“Why not? I’m your husband, and a wife should always obey her husband. You have to listen to me.” Chu Heng’s attitude was unyielding. His large hand grabbed onto her small feet, and Ye Muyu could not even pull it back.
She was anxious and embarrassed. She had read many books and naturally knew that in Great Chu, only the husband could touch a woman’s feet.
After all, Chu Heng was still her husband in name, so she could not reject him.
Ye Muyu felt her cheeks burning and her feet itching. She quickly begged for mercy. “I was wrong, I was wrong. Please let me go.”
“Wrong? Where did you do wrong?” Chu Heng suddenly heard Ye Muyu begging for mercy and had a strange feeling. He looked up and saw Ye Muyu’s ordinary but increasingly exquisite face. His heart inexplicably thumped, making him unable to look away.
“I…” Ye Muyu thought for a moment. She was only begging for mercy and did not feel that she was in the wrong.
For a moment, she was in a dilemma. She could not even make up a story. After all, lying was not in her character. In the end, she sighed helplessly like a disappointed cat. She said dejectedly, “Alright, tell me. What do you want me to do for you to stop washing my feet? This feeling is really strange.”
“Besides, your hands should be used for writing. If outsiders heard that you washed your wife’s feet, they would laugh at you.”
“Laugh? They can only laugh at me when they can beat me,” Chu Heng said nonchalantly.
Ye Muyu was speechless. “… Then I’ll laugh at you. I’m the only one who knows about this.”
“It’s good to smile more. Only when you’re in a good mood can you feel better.” Chu Heng coaxed her casually, but his movements were not slow. While he was talking, he had already helped her wash her feet. He squatted down and placed the cloth on her knees. Then, he wrapped it around Ye Muyu’s feet and carefully wiped off all the water droplets. Then, he covered her feet with the cloth.
“I’ll help you put on your socks after I pour away the water.” After Chu Heng said this, he had already left with the basin of water.
Ye Muyu sat on the bed, feeling that her feet were still a little hot, but her heart was even hotter.
She gently reached out to touch her chest. Her face was like a pink peach, tender and alluring. Her eyes were misty and filled with doubt.
After hearing the man’s voice outside, these emotions slowly subsided.
Chu Heng seemed to have gone into the study to teach Lil’ Jin.
Ye Muyu let out a sigh of relief and slowly sorted out her emotions.
After she calmed down, she put on her socks and went out to drink milk. After washing up, she tidied up and lay on the bed to rest.
When Chu Heng came back after washing up, Ye Muyu had just fallen asleep.
As soon as he entered, he saw his wife lying on the side.
He looked much better. He took off his shoes and socks and lay down.
Ye Muyu was actually not asleep yet. She was feeling a little conflicted because of the relationship between her and Chu Heng. She was a little hesitant and did not know how to deal with it.
Feeling the man’s breath lying beside her, Ye Muyu’s restless heart suddenly calmed down.
She recalled the night when she had just transmigrated. It seemed that at that time, she was full of wariness and unaccustomed to the man beside her. She even felt awkward.
Now, she had no intention of resisting. It was obvious that she had accepted Chu Heng’s existence in the depths of her consciousness.
Realizing this, Ye Muyu relaxed.
She opened her eyes and looked to the side.
She saw that the lights in the room had already gone out.
Only a sliver of moonlight shone in.
The courtyard also quieted down, and the children also rested.
The man beside her was lying flat on the bed. When she saw him, not only did she not feel disgusted, but she also felt a sense of security that she had never felt before.
She was surprised by this discovery and let out a soft moan..
