PWDLAW Chapter 55: Promise

 Chapter 55: Promise

"But it's not about affecting your own reputation." "With children around, isn't this giving people a chance to spread rumors about you?" "If, let's say, my elder sister said those things in front of the clan members, she would probably have to apologize to you, couldn't return to her parents' home for one or two years. But my elder sister is not foolish, she didn't say those things in front of the clan members." "But the fact is, those words were spoken by the children. So, your reputation is damaged and at most my elder sister would be reprimanded." "If I were you, I would have waited until after the guests left, then called Mother, Father, and me, and explained the situation. I would have taken charge of the matter." "Even though I was busy returning to school that day, as your husband, could I just turn a blind eye when you were bullied? I would have taken charge for you." "Do you understand what I mean?" Chu Heng, seeing that Ye Muyu remained silent for a while, felt somewhat self-deprecating. He didn't know what she was thinking. After returning for three days, all he could think about was divorcing Ye Yunlan. He was afraid of being deceived by a pitiful person who was taken advantage of, but there were no malicious intentions toward him, the children, family, or friends. He just didn't want to endure the annoyance of dealing with troubles caused by her throughout his life. Nor did he want to confine her to the inner courtyard and take her life. In this way there was only divorce when his reputation was not well-known. A parting of ways, each to their own marriage. However, the behavior of Ye Yunlan in these two days made him feel that she could be clever. At least, in these two days, although she pretended a lot he couldn't find any flaws in what she did. Chu Heng's mood became complicated. Perhaps even he himself didn't realize that the current Ye Muyu made him feel a sense of attachment. "I know that I was wrong in the past. Don't worry I will learn the rules from Mother in the future." Ye Muyu blinked her eyes. She inexplicably found a look of suppressed frustration in Chu Heng's eyes. Chu Heng recalled the difficulties he faced in the officialdom in his previous life which made him feel frustrated. Although he was already talented and wise enough, he couldn't resist the opponents using Ye Yunlan's design to trap him. He had loopholes and those people could take advantage of them. Hearing Ye Yunlan's words, he looked at her. Seeing Ye Yunlan's serious expression and gentle face, unlike the Ye Yunlan in his memory, Chu Heng's dark eyes stared at her. The fragile emotions from earlier were completely restrained as if they had never appeared on him. With a slight opening of thin lips, his voice was as deep as ink "I hope you will live up to it." Ye Muyu touched her forehead feeling a bit hot. She got up and said "Okay, then I'll leave first." She had to take medicine, this body couldn't be exposed to the wind. Chu Heng nodded. Ye Muyu had no psychological pressure at all. She was no longer the original owner, she couldn't turn back into Ye Yunlan. Therefore, for her, the promise Chu Heng made was not a big deal. After going back to the kitchen, heating the medicine, and drinking it, Ye Muyu felt a warm sensation in her body. The body, which had been weak and cold felt much more comfortable in an instant. Returning to the room, Ye Muyu continued making shoes. After Chu Heng killed the fish and cleaned the yard he returned to the study. The study had a lot of books, neatly arranged. He put away the books he brought back along with pens, ink, paper, and inkstones. He was about to put everything into the book box. He suddenly remembered what Ye Muyu said about wanting to learn how to recognize characters.
