Chapter 1298: Chapter 1295: Discuss
He asked, “Twenty laps should be enough, so why do you want me to scrub your back? Are the maidservants not doing a good job?”
By the time he finished speaking, his brows had furrowed, and his expression had bee slightly grim, as though he truly took the matter to heart.
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Ye Muyu cleared her throat and said, “No, Ah Heng, you mustn’t wrong people.”
Chu Heng relaxed, as he hadn’t noticed anything amiss with Ah Yu, who, after all, was not the type to be bullied without reacting. Perhaps if there really was such an incident, she would have already punished the offending servant herself.
As long as the person he cared about was alright, Chu Heng didn’t mind who the servants in the residence were.
“Alright,” Chu Heng felt puzzled about her reason for making the request.
Back in the room.
Ye Muyu indeed actively walked the twenty laps, not because she truly wasn’t hot but rather with the mindset of ‘it can’t be helped, finish early, rest early.’
After pleting the twenty laps, she was covered in sweat, feeling very unfortable, and had called Su Mei early on to order the kitchen to boil water.
She chose a set of clothes at random.
Before entering the bathroom, Ye Muyu did not forget to call for Chu Heng.
Chu Heng was looking at documents on the soft couch, and upon hearing her, he followed her into the bathroom with surprising posure.
But as he approached the door, his wife stopped him outside.
Ye Muyu whispered to him, “You can e in after I’ve gotten into the bath.”
Chu Heng lowered his gaze to her and was silent.
Ye Muyu just smiled reassuringly at him and then went in.
Su Mei and Chun Xing exchanged glances and smiled as they went in to attend to the lady.
Chu Heng smiled helplessly and rubbed his forehead with his hand.
While waiting, he did not remain idle but asked the maidservant beside him, “Where is Wu, who fans the lady?”
“Wu came to the residence during the Chenshi period and left at the end of the Shenshi period,” the little maidservant replied, quivering.
Chu Heng nodded to show he understood and waved for the maidservant to leave.
When he looked up, Su Mei and Chun Xing had e out.
The two swiftly bowed to Chu Heng, and without further words, conscientiously withdrew.
Chu Heng stepped forward and walked in.
As he saw the figure reclining behind the screen in the bathtub, he paused momentarily before making sure the door was closed, then stepped toward her.
Ye Muyu, hearing his footsteps, looked back at him and said with a smile, “Ah Heng, wash your hands first, then help me rub my shoulders.”
Chu Heng looked at her smooth back, his eyes deepening. Seeing her still smiling happily, he bent down and kissed her lips directly.
It didn’t take long for Ye Muyu’s lips to swell up, wet with droplets of water, looking somewhat moist.
“Ah Heng, stop, no more kissing. Please concentrate on massaging my back,” Ye Muyu regained her senses, and although she knew such moments were inevitable, she truly had a serious matter to attend to.
With some reluctance, Chu Heng agreed, washed his hands, and then took a bit of bath beans. The man’s hands still had fine calluses from sword practice.
This was something to which Ye Muyu was well accustomed.
At his touch, she still couldn’t help but shiver, forcing herself to endure the unfortable sensation. “My shoulders are sore, Ah Heng. Please help me massage them.”
Chu Heng didn’t say a word, but his actions were pliant.
He had good massage skills, and as Ye Muyu’s belly grew bigger, she would often feel backache and soreness just from sitting for a little while, and her legs would cramp at night.
In fact, Chu Heng had always been caring for her at night, never showing impatience after being woken up in the middle of the night.
As Ye Muyu recalled past days and thought of the reminder Lu Sangqi had given her before he left, she felt somewhat heavy-hearted, yet her shoulders were fortably massaged.
