Chapter 113 Husband, are you hiding something from me?

"There's a scent of oranges."

Uncle Fu replied, and upon hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Fu."

Uncle Fu nodded and added, "Alright, I'll be off then."

Urging the horse along, the carriage picked up speed, and Chen Jie turned to approach the gate, noticing the door bolt was already in place; he couldn't bear to wake his wife in the middle of the night.

So, he simply climbed over the courtyard wall.

"Who's there? Is it you, husband?"

Chen Jie hadn't jumped down yet when he saw a woman sitting inside the courtyard. Looking up at Chen Jie perched atop the wall, she cautiously asked.

"Wife?"

Chen Jie said in surprise, "You're not asleep?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yunjin stood up and said, "No, I can't sleep."

In reality, it wasn't that she couldn't sleep; she was afraid that if she fell asleep, she wouldn't hear her husband knocking.
