“Oh…” Chu Heng leaned over and hugged her. He gently planted a kiss on her ear. His voice was gentle. “Go to sleep.”
Only then did Ye Muyu fall asleep.
Chu Heng got up, put on a robe, and left the room. He closed the door tightly and called for Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan stood behind him with a respectful attitude.
“Go and look around the house. See if there’s anything extra.” Chu Heng’s face was cold.
Lu Chuan was stunned for a moment. He suddenly realized something and quickly went to look for it.
Chu Heng looked at his skin which was still burning hot. How could he not understand that he had been drugged? Ye Muyu had not noticed at all and had become his antidote.
Thinking that he might have been drugged, Chu Heng gritted his teeth in hatred. He immediately fetched a bucket of cold water and went into the bathroom to take a cold shower.
By the time he came out of the shower room, Lu Chuan was already standing at the door with a handkerchief in his hand. There was some unknown powder on the handkerchief.
“Master…” Lu Chuan was still in shock. “These things were found on the window and door outside your room.”
“Take it to Lu Sangqi for examination. Let’s see what kind of medicine it is! Send someone to investigate the Luo family!” Chu Heng clenched his fists and continued to order.
“Master, this subordinate understands. This subordinate will go now!” Lu Chuan thought that Chu Heng would scold him. After all, although he was busy today, he was responsible for guarding the courtyard. No matter what, he should not let anyone take advantage of him.
“Go, atone for your sins.” Chu Heng narrowed his eyes.
“Yes.” Lu Chuan immediately left.
Chu Heng could feel the heat on his body, but he pretended that it did not exist. He stood silently in the courtyard for a while, then continued to get cold water. He went into the bathroom and continued to take a cold shower.
The night passed quickly.
When Ye Muyu woke up, it was already late.
When she woke up, Chu Jin and Ziluo had already finished their meal and went out to play.
These three days were the Flowing Water Banquet. The villagers could come and eat as much as they wanted.
In this way, Chu Heng only needed to go and offer a toast each time. There was no need to entertain others.
Therefore, although Ye Muyu was tired after a night of hard work, she did not have to entertain the guests.
Outside, there was the help from Madam Zhang and Madam Wang.
Ye Muyu was sitting in the central room, drinking tea with Madam Liu.
“Mother, have you seen Ah Heng?” Ye Muyu had not spoken to Chu Heng since she woke up in the morning. She only saw him toast to the guests outside before he disappeared.
Madam Liu shook her head. “I don’t know. Didn’t I drink outside?”
“Why are you looking for him?”
“No, I was just asking.” Ye Muyu shook her head and did not think too much about it.
“Mother, in two days, the Xie family will also hold a banquet. You have also received the invitation, right? Let’s discuss what gifts to give.” Ye Muyu only thought about it now that he was free.
“Sure, I was just about to ask you about this. Should both your father and I? Or just one of us will do?”
“Mother, logically speaking, both of you can go. It’s up to you.” Ye Muyu thought of how Madam Liu was not used to the behavior of rich people and found it funny.
Madam Liu was a little hesitant. “I guess we’ll go. I can also see what the Xie family does. I might be able to use it in the future.”
“Alright, Mother. If you want to go, I’ll accompany you.” Ye Muyu was definitely going. After all, the Xie family was very supportive of them this time.
