Chapter 1244: Chapter 1241: Missing Chapter 1244: Chapter 1241: Missing When she touched his shoulder blades, Ye Muyu’s heart ached even more, as he had lost so much weight, he must have suffered greatly during this time.

The two embraced for quite a while before the man’s emotions stabilized.

Chu Heng lifted his head and planted a kiss on her forehead.

“I’ll go change my clothes first, I’m a bit dirty, Ah Yu, wait for me,” he said.

Chu Heng hurried off, and before Ye Muyu could utter a word, she hadn’t managed to stop him.

Outside the room.

Su Mei and the maidservants were startled by the sudden appearance of the master coming out of the lady’s room, and it took lighting several lamps before they could confirm it was indeed their own master.

Chu Heng was indeed in a sorry state, with a beard covering his face, hair and clothes all disheveled, and even his feet were caked with mud.

He looked exhausted.

It was clear he had hurried back.

Thankfully, the fire in the large kitchen was always burning, and as soon as the request for hot water was made, it was prepared in no time. When Chu Heng settled into the bathtub, revealing the bloodied bandage on his chest, the two servant boys attending him inhaled sharply and promptly voiced their concern, “Master, your injury…”

“It’s fine, I’ll apply medicine after the wash,” Chu Heng said after merely glancing at the wound, not even furrowing his brow.

He had almost run several horses to death on the road, and his wound had reopened several times. Back then, his body had gone numb, with only one thought in his mind: to get home.

Now that his wish was fulfilled, the pain actually made his mind clearer.

The servant boys didn’t dare to argue. Once Chu Heng had cleaned up and changed into clean clothes, they approached to re-dress the wound. They were thankful for Lu Sangqi’s effective hemostatic medicine; without it, he wouldn’t have been able to endure.

They then proceeded to wash Chu Heng’s hair.

“Can you make it quicker?” Chu Heng inquired.

The servant boys wouldn’t dare to refuse, and upon agreement, the speed of their hair drying increased significantly.

Meanwhile, Chu Heng took out the shaving tools and slowly tidied up the beard on his face.

Ye Muyu leaned back on the bed, considering getting off the bed, but she had grown so weak recently that she had hardly any strength. If it weren’t for the fact that she vomited everything she ate, she would be hungry enough to eat an entire cow by now. Unfortunately, just the thought of any food made her feel like vomiting, so she could only lean on the edge of the bed, trying to move as little as possible to avoid making herself feel worse, not even able to keep Ah Heng company.

As Ye Muyu stared blankly at the lamp by the bedside, a spark of light flickered, and Chu Heng arrived.

Noticing the sound of the door opening, Ye Muyu hurriedly lifted her head, her spirits lifted as she looked outside.

Chu Heng was dressed in a white inner garment, clean and neat, with a clean-shaven face. Ye Muyu couldn’t help but reach out to him.

The man’s movements immediately quickened, and he sat beside her, stretching out his long arms to envelop her in an embrace.

Ye Muyu couldn’t help but bury herself in his chest, her hands tightly gripping his neck. By her count, it had been almost three months since they had last seen each other.

She could only feel her heart pounding, satisfied just to lean against him, feeling too lazy to speak.

As she closed her eyes to feign sleep and enjoy the comfort, Chu Heng reached out, his cool fingers pinching her chin, gently lifting it.

After being apart for so long, they were both driven crazy with longing.
