Madam Hu taught Chu Heng every step.

She did not expect Chu Heng to understand immediately. His movements were very accurate, without any mistakes.

Madam Hu was also surprised for a moment. One had to know that there were very few men who had such good cooking skills, especially scholars. Thus, she felt that her master was even more capable than ordinary people.

At the same time, there was a hint of admiration.

15 minutes later, the sky had completely darkened.

Chu Heng carried the steamed cheese in his hand and walked towards the east wing.

Madam Hu also gave the two extra portions to Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo, who were reading in the study.

Chu Heng pushed open the door and saw Ye Muyu sitting by the bed. Under the dim light of the oil lamp, the shadow of her hair fell on Ye Muyu’s face. She was wearing an ordinary green cotton coat and her long hair was casually tied up with a jade hairpin. Her smooth side profile, and slightly lowered eyes, cast a shadow.

Chu Heng walked over and sat down on the stool in front of her. He looked at her quietly with his dark and bright eyes.

He called out softly as if he had called out a thousand times.

Ye Muyu raised his head in a daze. When she saw Chu Heng, she was stunned for a moment. At the same time, she rubbed her eyes. “You’re back?”

“I came back early. Come, try it.”

Chu Heng placed the needle, thread, oil paper, and cloth she was holding onto the bed beside her.

With his other hand, he placed the steamed cheese in front of her.

“Where did this come from?” Ye Muyu asked curiously.

“Try it first.” Chu Heng did not answer her. Instead, he scooped a little with a small spoon and fed it to her mouth.

“I can do it myself,” Ye Muyu said, her ears turning red.

“I want to feed you. Please fulfill my wish,” Chu Heng insisted.

Ye Muyu did not expect him to be so straightforward, but his eyes were very clean, without any hint of ambiguity.

“Then…Alright then.” Ye Muyu moved closer and ate it gently.

Chu Heng stared at her lips, his voice hoarse. “Are you feeling better?”

“You know about it?” Ye Muyu suddenly realized that Chu Heng had personally made the food and fed her because he knew what had happened in the afternoon. His actions now were to coax her.

This discovery shocked Ye Muyu. Her eyes widened and her mouth opened and closed.

Chu Heng reached out and rubbed her cheeks. Seeing that her cheeks were red, he was very satisfied. He even lectured her seriously. ‘What did Mother say?”

“It’s nothing. Mother told me to tell you that you don’t have to help Eldest Sister-in-law and the others. Let Eldest Sister-in-law and Qingxiang see for themselves what kind of life Qingxiang will have after marrying Song Lu.” “By the way, about the Song family, can you…”

“I already know. I might know a little more than you do.” Chu Heng deliberately left his words half-spoken, which was rare, but his expression was very serious.

It made people think that he did not do it on purpose.

“What’s the situation with the Song family?” Ye Muyu asked after glancing at him.

“As a wife, shouldn’t Ah Yu be concerned if her husband is tired?” “Why do you always care about other people’s family affairs?”

“Looks like I’ll need to find out more gossip in the future before Ah Yu takes the initiative to ask me questions.” Chu Heng looked at her firmly and used a narrative tone.

Ye Muyu’s ears were getting hotter and hotter. She realized that Chu Heng was asking this on purpose. She slowly looked up at him, reached out for a spoon, scooped some cheese, and fed it to the man..
