Chapter 1798: Chapter 1795: Candor

Ye Muyu didn’t want Chu Heng to smell fragrant while she herself smelled of sweat, so she turned around and went into the bathroom next door.

Seeing her in a hurry, Chu Heng called out for her to slow down, his voice full of helplessness.

When Ye Muyu finished washing and came over, her hair was wet, and there was a dampness about her.

Upon hearing the noise, Chu Heng looked up, frowned, and waved her over: “Come here, I’ll dry your hair.”

Ye Muyu really liked the feeling of him drying her hair. When Chu Heng was sometimes too busy, she would let the two maidservants, Su Mei, dry her hair. It was comfortable, but it felt like just completing a task.

But it was different when Chu Heng did it; she found it warm, an attitude of intimacy.

This feeling of the other person taking care of her made Ye Muyu somewhat nostalgic.

So when Chu Heng called her over, Ye Muyu obediently brought both towels over, sat next to him, leaned over the small wooden table, and let Chu Heng gently dry her hair.

While drying her hair, Chu Heng would also massage her scalp. His fingers were very warm, and Ye Muyu could always feel a different sensation, a truly warm temperature.

Ye Muyu felt a bit drowsy for a moment.

“Don’t sleep yet, wait until it’s dry.” Chu Heng, somewhat helpless, reminded her, “Otherwise, should I chat with you for a while?”

Ye Muyu rubbed her eyes, also feeling that sleeping with wet hair was uncomfortable and might easily lead to migraines. Thinking about her health, she forced herself to wake up. Thinking about the Sacred Girl of Southern Border, she hesitated for a while, then quietly asked: “Ah Heng, have you found out anything? Any news from Buddhist Light Temple recently, and about Yun Tan’s medicinal herbs, is there any new information?”

“As for the Buddhist Light Temple, Xiao Tianhao personally went to investigate. He is the leader of the Imperial Guard, very capable. As far as I know, there is indeed a secret passage under the Buddhist Light Temple, but what exactly he found, I’m not sure. I just know it probably involves many things.” Chu Heng didn’t need to inquire himself. Sometimes, when he met Xiao Tianhao alone for a chat, he could get useful information from him.

Only Xiao Tianhao himself was unaware, but Chu Heng thought of the past, where the matter regarding the Buddhist Light Temple never seemed to be exposed.

No, to be precise, it was not exposed before he ran into trouble, but at the time, he had a case on hand where the evidence vaguely pointed to the Buddhist Light Temple.

Thinking it was related to the military, Chu Heng pressed his lips together, only hoping Xiao Tianhao would make good progress, otherwise…

But without definitive news, Chu Heng didn’t tell Ye Muyu about it, lest she worry. Besides, too many people are involved, and Ah Yu not knowing is safer.

“As for Yun Tan, the whereabouts of the Southern Border Saintess and others have always been very cautious. However, the day you went to the Buddhist Light Temple, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border also met with a contact at the post station.”

“Yun Tan is a medicinal herb from the Southern Border, and the only ones involved are them, so this matter is presumably related to the Sacred Girl of Southern Border.” As Chu Heng spoke, his movements drying her hair remained unchanged, still very gentle.

Ye Muyu bit her lip and hesitated for a while before deciding to speak out: “Well… today when I went out, I met the Sacred Girl of Southern Border. She invited me to the post station to meet and buy flowers.”

“What else did she say?” Chu Heng’s movements paused, clearly growing tense.

Ye Muyu reached out to hug his arm, rubbing her cheek against it.
