PWDLAW Chapter 454: Waiting

 Chapter 454: Waiting

"And then Master Lin agreed?" Ye Muyu asked.


Chu Jin thought for a moment and shook his head, "Master originally didn't agree but Brother Chong Jin insisted, so Master sighed and agreed."


"Like this." he said, imitating Master Lin's actions, sighing and shaking his head lightly.


Ye Muyu rubbed her chin, pondered for a while, then seeing Chu Jin still standing there, she patted his back, "Go change into plain clothes and wear them for three days, understand?"


"I understand, Mother, I'll go now."


Zhang Cong saw this and quickly followed suit. Seeing that everyone in the house had changed into plain clothes, he knew he couldn't be an exception. This matter had to be handled carefully and couldn't afford any mistakes.


Ye Muyu waited until Chu Jin went to change his clothes before stopping.


Hu Shi was cooking porridge in the kitchen, and Ye Muyu didn't go in again. She washed her hands first and then reapplied the ointment on her wounds.


Seeing that it was getting late, and Chu Heng hadn't returned yet, Ye Muyu felt a bit worried.


So she stood at the door waiting.


Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo had been pacing around at the door for a while.


Slowly, the sky darkened.


The porridge was still simmering in the pot, so Ye Muyu called the two children to do their own things instead of waiting.


Hu Shi waved to Nenya and Zhang Cong, and the two children understood that the most important thing now was to take care of the young lady and young master.


Hu Shi then turned around and advised, "Madam, why don't you go inside and wait?"


"It's okay, I just want to look at the moon. Besides, this is the first time Chu Heng has come back so late."


Hearing the madam call the master's name directly again, Hu Shi decisively chose to pretend not to hear and comforted her softly, "The master might have stayed longer at the academy because of today's news."


"Otherwise, shall we call Zhang Shu to wait at the village entrance?"


"No need, I'm just looking. I didn't plan to wait. It's dark now and if something happens to Zhang Shu at the village entrance, what should we do? Let's light the lanterns at the door first, so it's easier to find the way when they come back." Ye Muyu instructed.


Upon hearing this, Zhang Shu quickly fetched the lanterns.


Ye Muyu waited for another fifteen minutes. Under Hu Shi's persuasion, she returned to the hall.


About a quarter of an hour later, there was a sound at the door.


Zhang Shu had been waiting at the courtyard gate.


He heard the sound of the carriage from afar, his face showing joy. He lowered his voice and shouted inside the house, "Madam, the master is back."


Hu Shi's joyful voice came from inside, "Madam, are you relieved now? The master just stayed late at the academy."


As they spoke, the two of them had already come out of the hall.


Ye Muyu smiled. She slowly let go of the worry she had been holding onto, not even realizing it herself.


Ye Muyu had just stood at the courtyard gate.


Then she saw the carriage gradually approaching.


Soon, the carriage stopped at the courtyard gate.


Luchuan jumped down from the driver's seat and opened the carriage curtain.


Chu Heng got out of the carriage. When he looked up and saw Ye Muyu waiting at the courtyard gate, his cold face softened instantly. He walked to Ye Muyu in two steps.


He grabbed her hand, feeling a bit cool, and frowned slightly. He disapproved, "How long have you been waiting outside? Although it's summer, your health is not good. You don't need to wait for me next time. Whatever happens in the future, I will either send a letter or come back in person."


"Yes, I understand. I was just a bit worried today because of the news from the village." Ye Muyu said straightforwardly.


Chu Heng's eyes lit up and he looked at her intently, a hint of warmth flashing in his eyes.
