This was why after learning the news, Chu Heng didn’t go to them directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, while in the temple, Ye Muyu was not only worried about Chu Bo being schemed against, but also feared that their group might get entangled in something more complicated; she always felt those two were not ordinary kidnappers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There might be hidden elements behind this, definitely not something she intended to get involved with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was worried that Chu Heng, being in the Court of Judicial Review, would rush over upon hearing the news, and at the same time worried he wouldn’t come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This uncertainty was causing this; fortunately, her plan was smooth, allowing her to easily slip away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Third Brother… it’s just right that you’re here, would you like to have dinner at our residence tonight?” Madam Wang interrupted the two’s conversation, feeling a little guilty, yet she had to speak, after all, she needed to instruct the servants to prepare dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng placed his hand on Ye Muyu’s waist in response and nodded gently, asking with concern, “Is Abo alright?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s fine, the wound isn’t deep, it didn’t reach the bone. The doctor said a month of recovery should suffice, although there will be a scar. Luckily, he’s a man, so it’s not really a big deal.” Madam Wang felt relieved and, after saying a couple of words, left the two alone and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding maidservants automatically retreated to a certain distance before Ye Muyu talked to Chu Heng about the day’s events, like casual conversation, without too obvious emotions: “As for whether my suspicions are true, we’ll have to see what the yamen’s follow-up investigation reveals.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The matter you spoke of…” Chu Heng clearly took it to heart, and after pondering for a while, he said, “I will find an opportunity to arrange for someone to investigate it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knows there are a few caves in the ravine behind the Buddhist Light Temple, but they’ve been checked early on; they’re just some shallow caves with nothing special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, now someone has managed to leave through the ravine caves from behind the Buddhist Light Temple, which can only mean there must be a route that allows one to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t a big deal, but it’s not a small one either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I think those two people actually know martial arts; their hands are calloused, clearly seasoned. They couldn’t be ordinary kidnappers without a reputation, and the knives they used likely aren’t ordinary either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, by the way, I feel like the people at the Buddhist Light Temple must know something; after all, this happened in their own backyard.” Ye Muyu felt like she was tattling, feeling a bit peculiar for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng listened to her words without missing a single one and nodded, “I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Muyu couldn’t help but lean against his chest, “You’ve worked hard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not at all.” Chu Heng stroked her long hair. After all, they were outside, so such intimate gestures should not be too conspicuous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Chu Cai returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, Chu Cai had been busy working on the new-style weaving machine, and anyone with a bit of wealth in the capital was willing to buy one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although other wood workshops started selling them too, initially what came out of Yonghe bore a mark, akin to brand effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Cai simply couldn’t keep up, working late into the evening each day and even eating at the Wood Workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, someone went to notify him to come back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Cai rushed back, his forehead covered in sweat. Seeing Chu Heng, he hurriedly greeted him, “Third Brother, you go rest in the living room first; I’ll go check on Abo.”\u003C\u002Fp>",654,"2026-06-05T23:54:35.360Z",1,"novelbin.me","148d56e644cf2521abc21b1f9d76117508e8189d0d87db766cfe0f40138336ac","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-1785","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-1783",2499,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpeasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-cover.jpg"]
