PWDLAW Chapter 528: Past Life
Chapter 528: Past Life
"You probably don't know, the rationality and calmness you display would never appear in the Ye family." Chu Heng remarked.
"Later on, it was about my mother-in-law."
"I'm prepared for you to, as usual give away all the valuable items in the house to her."
"I'm not angry that Ye Yunlan supports her natal family, but the two children are innocent." Chu Heng lowered his gaze. In his past life, when he was truly this age, he was fully focused on the imperial examinations, leaving the care of the two children mostly to Ye Yunlan and his mother.
Moreover, Ziluo was very sensible and never showed any disrespect in front of him.
It wasn't until later, when he went to the capital, that he found out that Ye Yunlan had never liked Ziluo.
At that time, the last bit of responsibility he should have as a husband towards Ye Yunlan was completely eroded, and after that, he and Ye Yunlan became estranged. Later on, it was as if he threw himself into officialdom, disregarding household matters entirely.
The last time he saw Ye Yunlan was when she passed away due to illness, a gap of twenty years between their meetings.
In other words, the last time he truly interacted with Ye Yunlan was twenty years ago.
After Ye Yunlan's departure, he never remarried and there was not a single woman in his life. He was renowned in the court and even in the capital for his lack of desire.
He lived his whole life like this, never once feeling attracted to a woman, because he had seen too much in his past life and no woman could make him take a second look.
Afterward, he passed away peacefully, closed his eyes, then opened them again realizing he had returned to his youth. Although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he wasn't someone who doubted everything either.
Once he confirmed it, he peacefully continued his life.
Until he met Ye Yunlan, who had changed!
To be precise, until he met the 'Ye Yunlan' who had become Ye Muyu.
His gaze couldn't help but fall on her, wanting to uncover the secrets hidden within her and even the curiosity buried deep in her heart, prompting him to involuntarily pay more attention to her.
Thinking of this, Chu Heng felt a sense of joy and satisfaction. He wasn't an ignorant young man, on the contrary having experienced a lifetime, he had long realized that his feelings for Ye Muyu were different.
Ye Muyu hadn't heard Chu Heng's response for a long time and couldn't help but sneak a glance back at him.
Unexpectedly, their eyes met and Chu Heng's gaze was tender and indulgent.
She opened her mouth, unsure of what to say feeling embarrassed to be caught by him.
However, Chu Heng acted as if he hadn't noticed her awkward expression and with concern he leaned over and gently touched her forehead. "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"N-no, I'm fine." Ye Muyu stammered, avoiding his gaze with embarrassment.
"How could you be fine? Let me take a look." Chu Heng said as he reached out and pulled Ye Muyu into his arms.
Ye Muyu was startled, unable to react in time and before she knew it, she was sitting on Chu Heng's lap. It was too unexpected and Ye Muyu wasn't prepared. After sitting down, she instinctively hugged his neck to stabilize herself.
Realizing her situation, she tried hard to control her nervousness and shyness. The skin below her neck turned red and she tried to keep her voice steady. "Please let me go."
She struggled lightly.
But Chu Heng wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity.
He quietly increased the strength of his grip, but on his face he wore a worried expression. "Ah Yu, don't move, I... I just want to see if you're feeling uncomfortable. Don't fall, I just want to check if you're okay."
"I-I'm fine, I'm not feeling uncomfortable anywhere." Ye Muyu hurriedly replied.
