Chapter 1606: Chapter 1603: Intentionally Provoking Soone
“Alright, when you have ti later, check on Nuanbao. He’s caught a cold and has a bit of a runny nose.”
Lu Sangqi saw he had dressed and didn’t linger, casually handing over the prescribed dicine and dietary plan: “Alright, take this and recover well. You shouldn’t be too aggressive, at least protect your family.”
Chu Heng’s eyes briefly landed on him, his hands montarily pausing as he tied his belt: “Mm, I understand.”
“Hey, I thought you’d accuse of ddling.”
“No, I’m just curious… you’re not young anymore, have you thought about eting soone?”
Lu Sangqi was so shocked his mouth couldn’t close. Since when did Chu Heng say such things? eting soone—wasn’t that a lady’s job?
“I’m not interested.” Lu Sangqi decisively shook his head to refuse.
Chu Heng ignored him, continuing: “Coincidentally, Muyu is currently matchmaking for the family’s servants. If you have any preferences, you can let Muyu know. She knows quite a few eligible young ladies and can introduce you. If you’re satisfied with soone, it would make things a lot smoother to approach the family elders about marriage.”
“I said I don’t want to get married.” Lu Sangqi ground his teeth.
Chu Heng made an understanding noise: “That’s not coming from . You should go ask your grandfather. As for Muyu, you can explain it to her yourself.”
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll et her alone?” Lu Sangqi intentionally provoked him, speaking this way to invite misunderstanding. In truth, he had feelings for Ye Muyu, but seeing her affection for Chu Heng turned those feelings bitter. Over ti, he had given up and only wanted to be friends with her. However, in front of Chu Heng, he wouldn’t admit it directly, wishing to make him anxious even just a little. This was a deliberate provocation.
Chu Heng, dressed neatly in his robe, just cast him a sidelong glance: “I’m here, you’re thinking too much.”
Alone?
Hmph, impossible.
Lu Sangqi was speechless, irritated by Chu Heng’s know-it-all, consistently steady deanor: “I’ll visit by myself when you go to the yan!”
“Aren’t there maidservants?”
“I’ll send away the maidservants too.”
“Rest assured, Ah Yu won’t agree to that. As a kind reminder, the maidservants around Ah Yu know martial arts. If you get hurt, don’t cry.”
Looking at Chu Heng’s indifferent attitude and the disbelief in his own physical abilities, Lu Sangqi couldn’t help but curse.
Inside the room.
Ye Muyu heard the door open and turned to look.
She saw the two of them coming in one after the other, keeping so distance apart, and couldn’t help but find it amusing: “You two didn’t argue again, did you?”
“Who’s arguing with him? A blockhead, I don’t know what you see in him.” Lu Sangqi rolled his eyes, his mouth unable to stop grumbling, but his actions were honest, as he walked over to check on Nuanbao.
Ye Muyu helplessly shook her head, already accustod to their way of interacting.
She took a handkerchief to wipe Nuanbao’s nose, then used her palm to feel his forehead, sowhat worried: “How is it? It’s not serious, right? I’m just worried it’s a seasonal cold. Since we often take Nuanbao out, it shouldn’t be from staying indoors too long.”
“Seasonal?” Lu Sangqi found this term novel: “Nuanbao’s okay, it’s just a minor cold, but since he’s a child and weak in health, he needs extra care.”
“As for how he caught a cold, I can’t be certain either.”
“Can he take the dicine now?” Lu Sangqi was halfway through writing the prescription when he realized and asked.
