 Chapter 459: Coddle When Necessary

"You remember to use it. If it's used up, go pick some more from the mountain and let them dry." Ye Muyu hesitated for a moment, didn't linger and also understood that Hu Shi was subtly reminding her to prioritize her health.


If other people in the family were just soaking their feet for comfort, Ye Muyu was doing it to treat her illness.


She ultimately chose not to resist. Although Chu Heng's teasing earlier had made her slightly annoyed, she couldn't sacrifice her health for it.


As for the slight discomfort in her heart, she pretended it didn't exist.


Ye Muyu mentally prepared herself and went back to the eastern wing room.


Seeing this, Hu Shi smiled and quickly took Chu Heng's foot-soaking water away as well.


Eastern wing room.


After Ye Muyu entered, she glanced at Chu Heng sitting on the bed, ignored him and went straight to the side, bending down to place the foot basin beside her. Silently, she took off her shoes and socks and soaked her feet. The foot basin was already filled with herbal water for soaking, so she just needed to soak her feet peacefully.


"Master." Hu Shi called from the doorway.


Chu Heng responded and only then did she push the door open, place the foot basin down and then leave.


Once she left, there were only two people left in the room.


Ye Muyu immersed herself in soaking her feet and didn't speak. She occasionally felt a burning gaze on her, but she remained calm and pretended not to notice.


Chu Heng remained silent as well.


For a while, the only sound in the room was the gentle sound of water.


Ye Muyu slowly got used to this atmosphere. She was adept at adjusting her own mood. The slight annoyance she felt earlier had long been digested in the quietness.


At this moment, Chu Heng wiped his feet and went out with the foot basin to pour out the water.


Ye Muyu stirred her feet in the water filled with herbs.


In the next moment, Chu Heng's footsteps sounded.


After two or three steps, Ye Muyu saw a figure appear in front of her, standing still without moving for a moment.


She raised her head in confusion and saw Chu Heng's dark eyes fixed on her.


"What's wrong?" Ye Muyu touched her cheek, feeling nothing on her face, but slowly realized that there was something different in Chu Heng's gaze compared to before.


She felt a little shaken in her heart but tried to remain calm on the surface.


Chu Heng reached out and touched her forehead with his warm hand, and even his fingertips were warm.


"I didn't mean it before." Chu Heng confessed.


Ye Muyu was slightly stunned. She had been somewhat resentful at first but it was just a small matter and not a big deal.


Chu Heng's sincere apology at this moment made her seem a bit petty.


The feeling of discontent hidden in her heart had long dissipated.


Ye Muyu suddenly smiled and said softly, "It's okay. Just don't leave things half-said to avoid misunderstandings in the future. Of course, I'll try to ask more clearly in the future."


Seeing Ye Muyu's serious eyes, Chu Heng's smile this time was genuine. "Okay, I promise."


"I'll be done soaking soon. You go drink the milk, wash up, and sleep early. Rest early, as you have to go to school early tomorrow." Ye Muyu crossed her hands on her legs and reminded softly.


Chu Heng shook his head. "It's okay. I haven't slept this early before and suddenly I can't sleep now."


"I'll wash your feet for you."


As soon as he finished speaking, he reached into the foot basin, grasped Ye Muyu's fair feet, and began to wash them.


Ye Muyu was startled, instinctively tried to pull her feet back, and said in a surprised tone, "Let go, there's no need for you to wash them for me. I can do it myself. How can I let you..."
