However, Mu Chenshuang still felt some doubts.
"When...did you get back? Was it yesterday?"
Thinking back to what happened last night, Mu Chenshuang's face showed a puzzled expression again. Could it be that the person last night was really Fu Junheng, and she hadn't guessed wrong?
Mu Chenshuang needed an answer, an answer that would put her mind at ease.
Unfortunately, Fu Junheng shook his head and said something indifferently.
"I just arrived."
A single, concise sentence directly negated Mu Chenshuang's thoughts.
Therefore, all previous guesses can only be said in one sentence: they were wrong.
Mu Chenshuang gave a bitter smile and looked directly into the inner room.
Since he entered the house and sat down at the table, he hadn't observed his surroundings, which is why Fu Junheng had been hiding in the inner room for so long.
Fu Junheng had heard everything he said to Feng Ji, so there was no need to repeat some things a second time.
Without much small talk, the three of them started talking about the current political situation again.
Fu Junheng's face showed obvious worry about the current situation.
The man, who was usually so shrewd and decisive, frowned slightly, and his voice carried a hint of seriousness.
The current situation is indeed very unfavorable for them.
"Be prepared for both possibilities. Feng Mo Ran has driven the Empress and the Crown Prince to a dead end this time, but given his personality, he probably won't harm them."
As soon as Fu Junheng finished speaking, Mu Chenshuang asked in confusion, "Why?"
“What Feng Mo Ran wants is not just a temporary victory or defeat, but the throne of Tian Zhao Kingdom. Although his current strength can rival the Crown Prince’s faction, he still needs a good reputation.”
Upon hearing Fu Junheng's words, Mu Chenshuang immediately understood.
This Feng Moran really wants both fish and bear's paw.
Unfortunately, there are hardly any perfect solutions in the world.
Thinking of trampling others underfoot to climb to a high position while also wanting a good reputation, they really have their cake and eat it too!
Mu Chenshuang sneered, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.
After analyzing the current situation, Feng Ji stood up once again.
"You two talk. I really have some things to take care of. I haven't been home for so long, I should get things sorted out."
This time, after finishing her sentence, Feng Ji immediately turned and left, not giving Fu Junheng a chance to stop her.
As Feng Ji's figure disappeared, Fu Junheng withdrew his gaze.
At this moment, only Mu Chenshuang and Fu Junheng remained in the room.
Without Feng Ji causing trouble, the two of them suddenly didn't know what to say.
"You've lost weight. Have you been eating properly?"
Fu Junheng spoke first.
Mu Chenshuang shook her head.
Too many things have happened lately; simply eating a good meal won't solve the problem.
"No matter what happens, you must take good care of yourself; that's the most important thing."
"You're right, that's what I wanted to tell you too. How's it going over there?"
Mu Chenshuang always felt a sense of distance between them regarding their subtle relationship.
Many people believe that Mu Chenshuang and Fu Junheng should be together. The unspoken understanding between them has already been revealed, and there's nothing left to worry about.
However, the current situation and the knot in Mu Chenshuang's heart still remain.
If the child she is raising is Fu Junheng's, why doesn't he admit it? What is he worried about?
