Chapter 530: Chapter 537: Unbelievable
Su Wenyue expressed her attitude while also playing a little bit of a scheme and sharing her thoughts. Han Yu saw through it and immediately agreed conscientiously, “Since my Wife does not like it, I will also pay attention in the future. The thing most forbidden between Husband and Wife is mutual suspicion. In the future, if we have any thoughts or doubts, we should express them to avoid giving others an opportunity to exploit.”
With Han Yu saying this, Su Wenyue naturally agreed. The couple reached a consensus, feeling even closer and more intimate than before.
However, Han Yu did not forget the pressing matters and thus spoke again, “My Wife, how did you figure out that pathway leads out of the valley, and from the sound of it, you seem to also understand arrays and mechanisms?”
While speaking, Han Yu also recalled the mooncake gift box his Wife had made in the past. At the time, it was through that same fortuity that he had gained his superior’s favor, leading to all his subsequent smooth proceedings. The design of the mooncake gift box had indeed incorporated a very ingenious little mechanism.
Although it was only a small mechanism, it was quite clever and something he had never seen before, so it remained in his memory up to now.
“Surprising, isn’t it? Your Wife has more abilities than you might think,” Su Wenyue said with a bit of pride.
“Of course, my Wife has always been quite capable, but my Wife, I have also never heard the Father-in-law and Mother-in-law mention you studying mechanisms and arrays. How do you understand these things?” Han Yu voiced the question that had long been on his mind.

If it were before, she would certainly have found an excuse to pass it off, but remembering Han Yu’s trust in her just now, she felt that she might not need to hide it any longer and mustered the courage to tell the truth, “Actually, I came across this skill during my time in the Sikong Mansion in my previous life, in the Sikong Family’s great study room by chance.”
Upon finishing, seeing that Han Yu was not upset, she continued, “It was also luck. Although it was difficult for outsiders to enter the great study room of the Sikong Family, there was no restriction on the Sikong Family’s descendants, so I had the opportunity to go in. No one had ever discovered that Ancient Book, until one day I accidentally slipped, braced myself on the bookshelf, and somehow triggered a mechanism, revealing the Ancient Book that recorded various mechanisms and arrays.”
“I may not be very clever, but I could tell from the contents recorded in that book that it was rare and extraordinary, not an ordinary item. Thus, I never let anyone know about this, and taking advantage of an opportunity, I secretly took the Ancient Book out…”
