Chapter 1203: Chapter 1200 Talking
His gaze lowered to rest on her full, rosy lips, and he couldn’t resist kissing her twice before scooping her up into his arms.
Ye Muyu let out a surprised gasp, then instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck to keep herself from falling.
She playfully beat his sturdy chest with her hands, “What are you doing, scaring me like that?”
“I’ve been busy for so long, I missed you,” murmured Chu Heng, revealing his true thoughts without a hint of concealment, his low, affectionate whispers and tender gaze made Ye Muyu’s heart race.
Being held by the man she loved, she found it impossible to control her heartbeat.
Her eyes curved into a smile, and she couldn’t help but laugh silently, after laughing, she felt she shouldn’t just be dominated by him, so she hummed softly and raised her head to bite his chin, her nose tip turning red from his short stubble.
Ye Muyu had not expected to end up at a disadvantage, and covered her neck with her hand.
Chu Heng had just placed her on the soft couch when he heard her muffled grunt, hurriedly bowed his head to check, and saw his girl covering her nose, her eyes resentful and misty, how could he not understand what had happened.
His eyes grew even more profound as he reached out to pull at her fair small hand, “Ah Yu, let go, and let me see.”
Ye Muyu complied, placed her hands on his shoulders, and let the man lean over awkwardly, gazing at him with a smile.
Chu Heng saw a few red dots on her nose tip, standing out against her pale skin, a sign that the stubble had indeed pricked her.
“Ah Yu, I’m sorry, I’ve been too busy these days to shave properly,” he apologized.
While saying this, he sat down on the soft couch, conveniently drew his wife into his embrace.
Ye Muyu, used to his gestures, simply let him wrap his arms around her waist.
“It’s okay, it doesn’t hurt anymore,” Ye Muyu touched her nose, unconcerned. It was only slightly uncomfortable at first, she was sensitive to pain, and even a slight prick made her complain, but now that it no longer hurt, she had no reason to mind. She reached up to twirl his hair and went on to tell him about the conversation she had with Madam Liu that afternoon about the women’s academy.
After she had finished explaining.
Lifting her gaze, she saw Chu Heng’s profound eyes fixed on her, just being caught in that gaze was almost enough to drown her.
Feeling somewhat impulsive, Chu Heng simply carried her toward the bed while murmuring his reply, “Okay, you can sponsor the women’s academy in your name, Ah Yu. In time, those women will be grateful to you. It’s better for them to learn more, at least they’ll receive respect from their husbands’ families.”
“As for the matter of arranging marriages within the clan, there’s no need to bring it up again. A man should rely on his own abilities, and I certainly don’t need the help of sisters from the clan to expand my network.”
Ye Muyu pinched his cheek, “Ah Heng, you are really kind.”
No man could resist power and influence, but Chu Heng had never considered sacrificing anyone for the sake of his own career.
His principles, persistence, and character all made Ye Muyu love him even more.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, whispered a confession into his ear, and felt his hot hand pull her even closer. By the dim light, she saw his ears turn a deep shade of red.
Ye Muyu couldn’t help but let out a girlish laugh.
“Ah Yu, I’m not tired tonight,” murmured Chu Heng after nibbling on her smooth face, leaning in closer.
The night deepened.
Ye Muyu seemed even more delicate and beautiful, especially in the winter when she rarely exercised outside and spent most of her time preparing food, thus gaining a bit more of a voluptuous figure.
Under Chu Heng’s diligent care, the days quickly advanced to the New Year’s Eve feast.
The palace had issued a decree early on, allowing third-grade officials and above to bring two family members to join the palace banquet this year.
