“Of course not, but what if something happens to the entire Xie family? You’re quite bold,” Chu Heng sneered.
Ye Muyu thought of something and was a little worried. After all, the Xie family had a good relationship with them. If the Xie family fell, her family would definitely not have a good life.
“You’re about to take the exam. What if this incident affects your exam?” Ye Muyu asked worriedly.
Chu Heng cupped her face and leaned over to touch her forehead. His voice was low. “Ah Yu, don’t you believe me?”
“I believe you. I’m just worried.” Ye Muyu nudged him, telling him to take this matter seriously. She also felt ticklish when his hot breath blew on her face. She felt her skin go numb. This feeling was strange and made her feel shy.
“Don’t worry, I’ll set off tomorrow and leave the county town early.” Chu Heng pinched her face, his eyes filled with warmth. Although he wanted to kiss her, he held back for some reason.
“That’s not right. If you leave tomorrow, you’ll be bullied when you reach the capital city.” Ye Muyu sat up straight and stared at him. “Tell me, what are you thinking?”
Ye Muyu felt that this was not in line with Chu Heng’s character. He was definitely not such a ‘naive’ person.
“My Ah Yu really understands me.” Chu Heng curled his lips.
“Naturally, I’m not going to the capital city.” Chu Heng’s fingers hooked Ye Muyu’s hair by the side of her ear and curled it around his fingers. Looking at Ye Muyu who was worried about him, Chu Heng felt unprecedentedly comfortable.
“There’s more.” Ye Muyu hit his chest and pursed her lips.
“I’m going to stop the Wang family from sending a message to the Zhao family in the capital city,” Chu Heng said with a faint smile. When he said this, he narrowed his eyes, but there was no warmth in them.
Ye Muyu suddenly understood. She knew that Chu Heng had a plan. She was relieved and leaned against the carriage. “That’s good.”
“I’ve already informed the Xie family of this news. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. However, since there’s not much time, I’ll go straight to the capital city after I leave. I’ll come back after the exam.”
“Alright.” Ye Muyu nodded. “I’ll prepare more food for you when I get back.
You’ll be gone for a month.”
“Mother gave some moldy tofu today. Bring some along. If you don’t have the chance to cook cooked food, pickled vegetables can fill your stomach and increase your appetite.” Ye Muyu thought of a lot of food, but basically all of them needed to be boiled and cooked. In addition, the weather was hot, so many things could not be kept for long.
“When you are on your way, you can make bamboo rice. Just cut a bamboo on the way and put the soaked rice and cured meat inside. It tastes good too.” Ye Muyu thought about it and told Lu Chuan about it.
Lu Chuan could barely make some food. After listening, he nodded to show that he understood.
Ye Muyu sat in front of Chu Heng again and nagged at him, telling him not to drink the water from the river on the road, but boiled water.
“I will prepare a few large water bags for you. It should be enough if you drink them slowly. Remember to fill up the water bags when you reach the relay station.”
“Ah Yu.” Chu Heng suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Muyu’s eyes were wide open. She put her head on his shoulder and squeezed out a question.
“It’s nothing. I’ll just want to hug you for a while.” Chu Heng closed his eyes and hugged her silently.
In fact, Chu Heng himself did not know why he liked her. Perhaps it was just as he had said, he just liked her and there was no need for a reason..
