Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1618: Chapter 1615 Entering the Palace

She gently bit her lip, feeling pain as she inhaled, her cheeks turning even redder.

Outside the door, Su Mei and others waited, asking when they could come in.

Ye Muyu took several deep breaths, finally calming down, when she heard footsteps behind her.

Turning around, she saw Chu Heng looking spirited, especially with a satisfied expression in his eyes, making her blush again, “Weren’t you supposed to enter the palace early?”

“No hurry, there’s still time.” Chu Heng sat down beside her without caring if her cheeks were about to smoke from blushing, even reaching out to pull her hand, gently tugging, causing her to tumble into his embrace.

Ye Muyu hurriedly propped her hands against his chest, speaking to stop him: “You can’t, can’t do this, it’ll be noticed.”

“Noticed what? Hmm?” Chu Heng leaned closer to her cheek, his warm breath blowing on her face, deliberately licking his sexy lips, his long eyes smiling, his hands encircling her waist, holding her like a doll in his embrace.

Ye Muyu saw he was deliberately teasing, turned her head to avoid his kiss, dodging several times before managing to escape, huffing, “Don’t play dumb, today is an important occasion, if we’re late, it could cause quite a problem.”

“If you don’t behave, you’ll be sleeping in the study tonight.” Ye Muyu squinted her eyes, using a trump card directly.

Sure enough, Chu Heng paused, looked at her lips, boldly lowered his head and kissed them again, holding until Ye Muyu was short of breath before releasing.

After releasing, he still reached out to wipe the moisture off her lips.

The rough fingers rubbed her swollen lips causing some pain, Ye Muyu feared he’d try again, quickly jumped away, distancing herself, and covered her mouth.

“I won’t tease you anymore,” Chu Heng coughed lightly, smiling as he promised.

Ye Muyu didn’t quite believe it, her eyes rippling, cheeks crimson, glaring at him.

Chu Heng sighed helplessly, ultimately choosing to relent, “Alright, I’ll go into the inner chamber.”

Saying that, he stood up and turned to go inside.

Ye Muyu sighed with relief, quickly calling Su Mei and the maidservants to come in and change her clothes, as the imperial command attire was complicated, Ye Muyu couldn’t manage it alone.

When it was Su Mei’s turn to apply makeup for Ye Muyu, she immediately noticed her swollen lips and couldn’t help but smile while applying lip balm for her.

She teased, “Lady, I’ll apply two layers for you, and you should take a box of cream with you, remember to reapply when convenient.”

“Cough, cough.” Ye Muyu resisted the urge to cover her face, “Apply this shade of lip balm for me.”

She deliberately chose a flesh-red color, which hid it instantly, making her look even more vividly beautiful and natural.

In the meantime, Chu Heng left early, but not before greeting Ye Muyu and leaving Lu Chuan behind to specially escort her and Chu Ziluo to the palace.

Once Chu Heng left, Ye Muyu felt more at ease, the pink hue on her face gradually fading.

She tidied up her attire, making sure there were no mistakes or omissions, and then took Chu Ziluo out, not forgetting to comfort Nuanbao before leaving.

Leaving the mansion, getting on the carriage, entering the palace, the journey went smoothly.

However, Ye Muyu didn’t expect to encounter the Elder Princess’s sedan at the palace gate.

The Elder Princess greeted her directly, as if the two were very close.

But only Ye Muyu knew that she hadn’t contacted the Elder Princess for several months, even Lu Sangqi visited the Princess’ Mansion more often.

“Greetings, Your Highness.” Ye Muyu saluted.
