“They’re just men, not fierce beasts,” Chu Yue said in annoyance. 

“They’re not fierce beasts? You were terrified just now!” the monk said gloomily when he saw that she had no awareness of her own safety.

“I put on makeup and they didn’t know that I’m a woman. Besides, I went with someone. I didn’t go alone,” Chu Yue said. 

But the monk did not buy it. “Who went with you?”

“A rich man’s son. I don’t know his name, so I call him Kun-peng. I got to know him at the ice sculpture festival,” Chu Yue said. 

“You actually have the gall to go to a gambling house with someone that you don’t even know the name of?!” the monk asked as he stared at her.

Even though it was dark, Chu Yue could sense that his gaze was filled with anger. 

“Even though he’s a good-for-nothing, he has a good heart. He has clear eyes, and he gives off a refreshing presence. Why else did you think I would go with him? He’s just too rich and doesn’t have anything he needs to work hard for. That’s why he lives a carefree life.” 

When Chu Yue saw that the monk was worried about her, her tone became soft. As she reached the last part of the sentence, she sounded as if she longed for that sort of life. 

Some people were born with the life that others treated as their goal, but even if they worked hard for their entire lives, they were still unable to obtain that sort of life. 

She believed that the young man who had carved the Kun-peng was either someone rich or an aristocrat. A normal family would not be able to cultivate a rich man’s son who did not treat money as anything important. That sort of presence was not something that could be imitated.

The monk huffed and said, “He’ll soon be busy!”

When Chu Yue heard this, she asked, “How would you know? Do you know him?”

“I don’t.” The monk let out a cold huff. 

Suddenly, Chu Yue’s tone became soft. “Master, I missed you. Did you miss me?” 

The monk wanted to ignore her, but he could not bear the thought of it, so he could only say, “If you were just deluding yourself, would I have appeared in this place?”

“Then, did you miss me?” Chu Yue asked gently.

The monk had been angry with her, but after comforting her for an hour, his anger was practically gone. It rose again later, but it faded away for the most part after she acted sweetly with him. And now, when she was acting so obediently, the final wisps of anger were completely extinguished. 

The monk said nothing. He just held the widow. It had been a long time since they met, and he did miss her. 

He had been traveling for a long time, and even if his body was stronger than that of an average person, he was still tired. But at that moment, as he held the widow, his heart was happy, and soon, he fell asleep. 

Eunuch Feng waited outside. He had been guessing that his master would soon storm out in anger, but after waiting for hours, he did not see any traces of his master. 

He then understood that his master was not coming out. 

Eunuch Feng could not understand. After causing such a stir, his master was still willing to stay? Just what sort of trick had the widow used? 

They had only gone to sleep when it was a little past midnight, but when the monk came out of the room, it was still early in the morning. “Get the carriage ready.”

Eunuch Feng did not dare to ask anything and just hurried over to get the carriage ready. Soon, it was prepared. Then, he saw his master using his precious arms to hold the widow as he got into the carriage. 

Eunuch Feng’s eyes were so wide that they nearly popped out of their sockets. He quickly called Yingda and said, “Send the master back, quickly.”

Yingda drove the carriage back while Eunuch Feng stayed. He hired another carriage to go back with Hupo. 

Hupo asked him a lot of questions. “Is my mistress sick? Is she really sick?”

“I don’t know whether she is seriously ill, but I know that your mistress is really fortunate,” Eunuch Feng said faintly. 

Hupo thanked Buddha. “That’s right. I have to really thank the master. Last night, I slept like the dead and didn’t realize that the mistress felt sick when she woke up this morning. She even went off alone to get medicine. Fortunately, she ran into master while he was traveling outside to gain experience.”

“Next time, you should come out less often with your mistress.”

“I know.” Hupo was very afraid when she thought about it. Next time, she would definitely not let her mistress come out in this sort of weather.

Chu Yue was forced to go back ahead of time because she was “sick”. “I didn’t get to say goodbye to Kun-peng.”

The monk’s expression turned dark.

“Master, are you jealous?” Chu Yue asked while looking over. 

The monk let out a huff and turned his head around. Chu Yue sighed softly and said, “Master, you shouldn’t think too much. You’re the only one who wouldn’t regard me with disdain, considering my status.”

‘Oh, now you know?’ the monk thought

Then, he frowned and let out a cold huff. This was the woman he fancied. Who would dare to look down on her?!
