Chapter 654 Ah Yu, Thank You
"Got it?" Ye Muyu reacted instantly, grabbing his shoulder with joy, somewhat disbelieving, and repeated, "Really got it? What place?"
"Second place." Chu Heng looked at her joyous expression and originally not caring much about the results, also felt happy.
If he had known that Ah Yu liked it so much when he performed well, he would have aimed for first place.
"Would you be disappointed if you didn't get first place?" Chu Heng couldn't help but ask.
Ye Muyu shook her head frantically, unable to contain her smile. "How could I be? Second place is already impressive. The imperial examination is so difficult. Ahh, you're so amazing."
"Really? I'm amazing, and you're just realizing it now?" Chu Heng's eyes full of laughter, looked at her, his words carrying deep meaning.
Ye Muyu blushed, feeling that she couldn't provoke a man who started a carriage at the drop of a hat, so she pretended not to understand. "I was planning to make candied sweet potatoes and chrysanthemum cakes today. I'll cook you a bowl of longevity noodles later."
Saying that, she went to the kitchen.
Chu Heng followed her into the kitchen and saw the unfinished chrysanthemum cakes on the chopping board. He went over to help.
Ye Muyu added some fire and took out the dried noodles from the cupboard.
She didn't like having to knead dough every time she wanted to eat noodles, so she decided to make dried noodles in one go.
However, she still had to make fresh noodles. She and Ziluo would accompany Chu Heng for lunch.
"Did anything happen to you on the way? Your birthday was spent outside. Let me make you some longevity noodles." Ye Muyu felt that Chu Heng probably didn't celebrate his birthday. How could he relax at home while searching for evidence against the Wang family? Even after going to the capital, he had to study daily and prepare for exams. Exams were especially tough, and with that nervous state, how could there be any mood to celebrate a birthday?
"Nothing happened, everything's fine now." Chu Heng didn't intend to talk about the hardships during the journey to avoid worrying her.
"But you..." Chu Heng's gaze fell on her, his expression serious. "No more taking risks in the future. Even if Han Zhuang is dead, he would still rescue you."
"I... I just thought, take the opportunity to catch those people. Besides, there were too many people at that time, and Xiao Jin's safety was the priority. If they caught me, they wouldn't go after Xiao Jin again." Ye Muyu felt a little guilty, especially under Chu Heng's piercing gaze, making her feel like she had done something wrong to him.
"I won't let you take risks anymore." Chu Heng regretted a bit that his arrangements weren't sufficient, leading to unexpected situations. He furrowed his brows slightly.
Seeing him easily let her off, Ye Muyu couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She walked over, gently stroked his face, and said with a relaxed expression, "Don't blame yourself. I don't blame you. You've done very well."
"Besides, any plan can have unexpected situations. Just do your best. I will also take care of myself. Look, I've made preparations, right?" Ye Muyu said earnestly.
Chu Heng hugged her waist, burying his head in her neck, holding her silently for a while.
Ye Muyu patted his back lightly, silently comforting him.
"Ah Yu, thank you."
"Alright, I'll make it for you right away. After you finish eating, go rest." Ye Muyu saw the fatigue on his face and didn't let him help anymore.
Chu Heng obediently sat beside her, his face filled with a smile, feeling that all the tiredness was worth it.
Soon, Ye Muyu cooked a bowl of longevity noodles, with two fried eggs on top.
Chu Heng didn't hesitate to eat it all quickly. Ye Muyu asked him to rest, saying that they could discuss anything after he woke up.
