Chapter 638: Chapter 640, Beautiful Time and Scenery (6 More Updates)
She walked leisurely towards Yun Jinnian.
"Does the kitten like it?"
Yun Jinnian nodded, "I do!"
Chu Yu smiled, revealing his white teeth, then presented a bunch of wildflowers, "These are for you, too!"
Yun Jinnian reached out to take them.
"I picked them from the mountains of the small town!"
Yun Jinnian immediately understood that Chu Yu had done something concerning the She Family, but wasn’t sure, "That She Family..."
"I was the one who arranged it!"
How dare they covet Chu Yu’s woman, they must be feeling bold.
"..."
Yun Jinnian fell silent.
"That good-for-nothing, he was never worth a damn. It’s just as well he’s gone; now let’s see what he can use to harm innocent people!"
"..."
Yun Jinnian was silent again.
Her heart felt strangely full, as if stuffed with sour and unsettling emotions.
Suddenly, she threw herself into Chu Yu’s arms, holding him tightly without saying a word.
When a beauty throws herself into your arms, it’s a wonderful feeling. Chu Yu was stunned for a moment before he joyfully embraced Yun Jinnian, "What’s wrong?"
Yun Jinnian shook her head.
Her heart was happy, but she didn’t know how to express it,
"I also brought Chrysanthemum Wine, chrysanthemum cakes, and a few dishes made with chrysanthemums. The chrysanthemum chicken tastes quite good. How about we eat first? It will get cold later!"
Though it was wonderful to have the beauty in his arms,
Chu Yu knew that Yun Jinnian had a rough day.
And she had been wronged!
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone through the trouble to get a milk-fed kitten.
Yun Jinnian nodded slightly, sat down on a stool, and held the kitten in her arms, "Have you washed it?"
"I have!"
It even scratched him!
As Chu Yu spoke, he took out the dishes from the food box and placed them on the table.
The plates were small, the portions meager.
There were two chrysanthemum cakes, the bottle of Chrysanthemum Wine was also small, and even the bowl for the chicken soup was tiny.
Yet inexplicably, Yun Jinnian felt content.
Chu Yu handed the chopsticks to Yun Jinnian, "Try them!"
Yun Jinnian took the chopsticks and placed them on the table, "Shouldn’t we start with the Chrysanthemum Wine first?"
"Oh, right, the Chrysanthemum Wine first!"
Chu Yu poured the wine, both raised their cups, clinked them gently, exchanged smiles, drank the Chrysanthemum Wine, and thus celebrated the Double Ninth Festival together.
Yun Jinnian’s eyes felt sore, but she lowered her head without shedding any tears.
She pursed her lips, picked up the chopsticks, and began to eat the chrysanthemum cakes slowly, while Chu Yu also picked up a piece with his chopsticks to eat.
The two ate in silence, yet their understanding of each other was unmistakable.
After they finished everything on the table, Chu Yu put away the dishes into the food box.
"How’s your cousin doing?" asked Yun Jinnian.
"Much better, he will secretly leave the city in a few days. He said he wants to find a place to heal, and I didn’t feel it was right to keep him!" Chu Yu said, not without a sigh.
Chu Xinchun was a good soldier and a fine general.
But to end up in such a state...
"The Princess isn’t his birth mother, right? Do you think it could be..." Yun Jinnian started to say but then stopped.
Chu Yu suddenly stood up, "What are you suggesting?"
Those directly involved can be too close to see clearly. Not just Chu Xinchun, even he hadn’t suspected the Princess.
"I’m just speculating wildly!"
Yun Jinnian would never reveal that in her past life, it turned out that it indeed was the Princess who acted.
But by mentioning it now, she hoped it would be of some use to Chu Yu.
After a moment of silence, Chu Yu said, "Jinnian, you should rest early. I have to leave the palace now, and as for this cat, just feed it some cow’s or sheep’s milk. Wait a few days before feeding it fish!"
Having said that, Chu Yu picked up the food box and left.
Happy to have been of help to Chu Yu, Yun Jinnian softly stroked the kitten’s head as she heard it purr contentedly, quietly, yet rhythmically.
"Why hasn’t the fourth miss gone to bed yet?"
