Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As for discussing business with the Xie family, it was just to satisfy Ye Muyu’s goal of earning money. As for relying on the Xie family to have a smoother career… Chu Heng had never thought about it.
Ye Muyu blinked her eyes and looked at Chu Heng, who was treating her as his wife. She reached out her hand and gently placed it on her chest, as if her heart was… beating a split second faster.
She lowered her eyes to hide the complicated emotions in her eyes.
When she raised her head again, she regained her composure and nodded. “Alright.”
“I’ve already discussed it with a grandmaster. Tomorrow is a good day. I’ve already informed the clan and mother-in-law that there will be a banquet tomorrow. It doesn’t matter if your health isn’t good. I’ll get someone to come back tomorrow to take care of it. As for the rest, Mother will be in charge.”
Chu Heng squatted in front of her and naturally grabbed her hand. He slowly explained the process of tomorrow’s banquet. He skipped the matter of organizing the banquet and only said that she did not have to worry about it.
Other than that, there were also details that needed to be paid special attention to when worshipping the ancestors.
“Oh, I know. However, isn’t it too tiring for mother to manage the banquet alone?” In the end, Ye Muyu felt that it was too much trouble for Madam Liu. She had never had the habit of troubling others.
Even when Chu Heng said that she did not need to care, she subconsciously felt that it might be an excuse. This was also the drawback of being independent since she was young.
“No, I invited a lot of people to help. Mother will only arrange when the food would be served. When we go to the ancestral hall, she just needs to help entertain the guests. Moreover, they are all people from the clan, so there’s no need to be too formal.” Chu Heng made his words very clear. He looked at her with his dark eyes. Seeing that Ye Muyu had turned away, he reached out and grabbed her chin, not allowing her to move away. Ye Muyu instantly saw the seriousness in his eyes.
Ye Muyu’s breathing quickened, and she felt that her chin was especially hot from the man’s touch. She avoided his gaze and said, “Yes, yes, I understand.” Chu Heng’s deep eyes flashed with a smile, and he chuckled.
When Ye Muyu heard the laughter, she raised her head and held her breath as she looked at Chu Heng. Chu Heng actually laughed…She almost thought that she was hallucinating.
Chu Heng saw that her reaction was really interesting, and the smile on his face became even wider. He suddenlv reached out and rubbed her head, stood
up, and laughed loudly.
Ye Muyu was speechless. She could not help but glare at Chu Heng’s back. What was so funny?
She cursed in her heart, but maintained a dignified and gentle smile on her face.
Chu Heng was walking over to light the fire when he tilted his head and saw the change in her mood. The smile in his eyes deepened.
Fifteen minutes later…
The Soft Fragrance Cake was taken out of the pot.
When the cake was ready, Chu Heng deliberately cut it into three pieces.
Chu Jin’s was sent to school by him.
“Ziluo, take it out for your mother to eat.”
“Yes, Father.” Chu Ziluo also felt a sense of accomplishment. She had taught her father how to make this, so she should have contributed half of the credit, right?
Ye Muyu was already reading in the study.
Hearing the voice, she looked up and saw ZiLuo coming in with the Soft Fragrance Cake.
“Ziluo, are you done?” Ye Muyu looked at the pastries in front of her. She did not expect them to look so good, but she didn’t know how they tasted…
Ye Muyu thought about it and took a bite. The taste was surprisingly good and the control of the fire was excellent. She was basically sure that Chu Heng knew how to cook.
“Ziluo, where’s your father?”
Chu Ziluo replied, “Mother, Father took the Soft Fragrance Cake and went straight to the county. He asked me to take care of you. He’ll be back before lunch..”
