way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the Ministry of War Office, Chu Heng went straight back to the mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He originally had no political affairs today, but was suddenly troubled by Hu Hua, which only entangled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Chu Heng passed a pastry shop, he saw it was selling tarts inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the daily limit, when the family wanted to eat some, they would have the kitchen maid make them, or Ye Muyu would do it himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng went in and bought some grape tarts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intending to send them to Ye Muyu later when he returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he also thought his wife’s cooking skills were good, and she was happy to cook herself, Chu Heng still felt sorry for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also wanted to treat her better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he dared to leave the shop after buying the tarts, he ran into a familiar figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Zhao was knocked askew, but still focused on that slap mark on his face, without applying medicine or pausing because of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to have only one goal, unaffected, as he entered the shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng was about to leave, but paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turned around and went back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While asking the waiter to get him two pieces of bread that Chu Ziluo liked, he noticed Xie Zhao’s movements with the corner of his eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Zhao acted as if no one was around, standing at the counter, staring at a pineapple cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was too focused, completely unconcerned with the strange looks from people nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want... one,\" Xie Zhao’s voice was somewhat low, he fumbled for silver from his waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carefully handed it to the waiter, watching as the waiter wrapped up the pineapple cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took it gently as if receiving something precious, cradled the pineapple bun, took back the copper coins, and turned to walk outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze only on the pineapple cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, there was a thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A youth in brocade ran in from outside, knocking the pineapple cake from his hand onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soft pineapple cake landed on the ground, mushing into a mess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth’s eyes, originally without any fluctuation, finally showed obvious emotional change at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a kind of sorrow to the extreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if a single pineapple cake shattered the cold shell propping up around his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His whole demeanor turned very soft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, you, how can you walk so carelessly, my arm hurts from being hit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honestly, move aside, hitting this young master is begging for trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth turned a deaf ear to the reproachful words, only squatted down, trembling hands moving to gather the pineapple cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, a complete pineapple cake suddenly appeared in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth’s eyes shifted, gaze settled on the offered pineapple cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he lowered his head, continuing to reach out to pick up the pineapple cake on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s for you, whenever you want to eat pineapple cake, you can buy it anytime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as you desire, you can have it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng’s deep voice echoed above him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth finally reacted, raising his head to look at Chu Heng, speaking awkwardly: \"No need.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being refused by the youth, Chu Heng wasn’t surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly placed the pineapple cake into the youth’s arms, pulled him up, and walked forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giving no chance for Xie Zhao to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Zhao watched as he moved farther away from the pineapple cake on the ground, his eyes starting to turn red, swelling with a surge of anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That one is dirty, eat this one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Heng sensitively perceived his emotional change, stopped at the street corner, released his hand, letting the other hold the cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today you shouldn’t refuse, tomorrow you can still come and buy more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Zhao lowered his head, looking at the pineapple cake in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his emotions slowly calmed down, he didn’t respond to Chu Heng, nor did he look up to acknowledge him.\u003C\u002Fp>",676,"2026-06-05T23:54:36.873Z",1,"novelbin.me","d3dbecdc438cc68db0da15a654ecd65309a1f4a60b00e4d2f4800d19771fb731","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-1943","peasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-chapter-1941",2499,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fpeasant-woman-s-decreed-life-as-a-wife-cover.jpg"]
