Chapter 374 - 373: A World of Ice and Fire
Chen Afu said, "She is walking right into danger, isn’t she?" Then he chuckled, "But then again, Chen Yuhui is no pushover. Who knows, she might be able to outsmart He Er, he’s not invincible."
Chu Lingxuan replied, "Even the most rational people could lose to brutal force. It’s going to be a circus at the He’s house." Then with a mischievous smile he added, "I unintentionally ended up as matchmaker bringing two most fitting people together."
Chen Afu laughed, "Apart from Chen Yuhui and the old lady, no one will appreciate your matchmaking efforts."
Chu Lingxuan pecked Chen Afu and said, "I don’t care about others’ opinions, all I want is for Afu to appreciate me. Marrying off your sister, your family will finally get some peace."
Chen Afu became somewhat excited at the thought of someone else taking care of that mischievous girl, allowing Chu Lingxuan to tease him a bit more. However, their ruckus woke up Mrs. Li who had been sleeping.
Mrs. Li had visited her family a few days ago, but tonight was her turn to keep night watch. As soon as she heard the noise, she walked out of the ear room towards the east room, coughing a few times from behind the bedroom door. She then lightly scolded Xia Yue, who was also on night watch in the side room, "Didn’t you think to remind the mistress when you heard the noise? If anything were to happen to her, we servants would be held responsible."
Xia Yue blushed in embarrassment, keeping her head down and remained silent.
Chen Afu also blushed, quietly scolding Chu Lingxuan a few times.
