 Chapter 364: Driving Away

Lu Sangqi's mouth twitched slightly. It seemed so fake.


"Zhang Shu, see our guest out." After the diagnosis was done, Chu Heng promptly began ushering Lu Sangqi out, who was slow to react.


It wasn't until he stood up and walked to the doorway that he realized he was being dismissed by Chu Heng again.


His stubbornness surfaced and he stood still, saying with a faint smile, "It's already noon. Mrs. Chu, won't you let me have lunch with you?"


He changed the name on the spot, deciding to use a different name since Chu Heng was less accommodating. Ye Muyu reluctantly wanted to save him some face.


Chu Heng, however, didn't show any courtesy and directly asked Zhang Shu to see him off.


Ye Muyu, who hadn't seen Chu Heng so uncomposed before, felt a sense of pity for this young man. Thinking about it, he was not someone easy to get along with, even with his fellow villagers. For someone like Lu Sangqi, whom he had only met once and had no relationship with, he had no reason to be polite.


Ye Muyu felt a moment of compassion for this young man and asked, "What does Dr. Qi think?"


Lu Sangqi, thick-skinned, replied, "I've heard that Mrs. Ye is good at cooking. How can I miss the chance to taste it?"


Seeing Chu Heng squinting his eyes as if he were about to use force, Ye Muyu grabbed his arm. "Husband, Dr. Qi is tired after examining me. Let him stay for a simple meal, it's not a big deal."


"Isn't it afternoon already? You have to go to the academy in the afternoon. Why not take a rest now?" She thought it would be better to treat it as if Qisang didn't exist at all. It would save Chu Heng from using force, and this man wouldn't go around talking nonsense.


"That's fine." Chu Heng's eyes were profound as he gently brushed Ye Muyu's face and then instructed Hu Shi, "Prepare some more bitter melon tea for Dr. Qi to prevent overheating."


"...Yes, Master." Hu Shi dared not disobey and went to the kitchen to make a fresh batch of bitter melon tea for Lu Sangqi.


Lu Sangqi's face changed slightly and he didn't know what to say. He just knew that neither Chu Heng nor Ye Muyu was easy to deal with. No matter how he gritted his teeth, no one paid him any attention.


After Chu Heng stood up, he directly pulled Ye Muyu out of the main hall, heading straight for the east wing.


Ye Muyu's footsteps just kept up with his, still feeling a bit puzzled.


Once they entered the east wing, Chu Heng closed the door and the window.


Ye Muyu looked at his series of actions and asked in confusion, "What... are you doing? Are you going to tell me about the Lu family's affairs?"


Apart from that, she couldn't think of anything else. She assumed Chu Heng was being so serious to prevent Qisang from hearing.


Unexpectedly, the next moment, Chu Heng suddenly pulled her into his arms.


Ye Muyu was startled, her heart seemed to be stuck in her throat due to nervousness.


The thumping heartbeat made her face slowly blush.


Her delicate hands pushed against his chest, "Chu Heng, let me go."


"Didn't you just call me husband?" Chu Heng's voice was hoarse and there was an accusing look in his eyes.


Ye Muyu pursed her lips, trying to calm herself down. She explained, "That was in front of others. Didn't Mother say we should act like that? Besides, why are you so serious? Is it to prevent Dr. Qi from hearing?"


She cleverly shifted the blame onto Chu Liushi's instructions.


Chu Heng's gaze fell on her face. Seeing her bright and calm eyes, even with a hint of a faint smile, he felt that she was very sensible.
