Chu Heng saw her reaching out in a daze, wanting a hug, and knew she hadn't fully woken up from her nap. Feeling a bit helpless, he stopped her movement.
Ye Muyu murmured, as it was already past her usual sleep time.
She simply climbed into bed, hugged the quilt, and drifted back into sleep in a daze.
When Chu Heng finished washing up and came out, he saw her sleeping soundly, her face looking sweet and fragrant, and he couldn't help but touch her cheek, smiling silently.
He didn't wake Ye Muyu.
He walked over to the soft couch, the screen and bed curtains blocking the view of the inner chamber's bed, and he opened the window beside him.
A gust of cold wind blew in.
A shadow appeared outside the window, reporting softly, "Master, they have taken action."
"Hmm, proceed according to the original plan."
"Yes." The secret guard disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chu Heng read the secret letter, curling his lip in indifference.
