The Ghost and the Old-Fashioned Scholar
Chapter 944 The Ghost and the Old-Fashioned Scholar (15)
A few days after Wen Yanci finished the provincial examination, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived. During this period of rest, Shen Shuyi went out almost every day, either to go hiking with Wen Yanci or to accompany him and his classmates to a gathering.
I stayed home all day on Mid-Autumn Festival, making mooncakes, and then eating pomelos and mooncakes in the yard in the evening while admiring the moon.
Wen Yanci brought back a small jar of wine and sat in the courtyard with Shen Shuyi, enjoying a few drinks under the moon.
Shen Shuyi nestled in his arms, hugging his waist, and buried her head in his chest. "Brother Yanci, I want more drink."
Wen Yanci chuckled, "You're not allowed to drink anymore, or you'll get drunk."
Shen Shuyi nudged a few times, her lips brushing against Wen Yanci's Adam's apple.
This action ignited Wen Yanci's anger. He held Shen Shuyi still and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't move Yiyi."
Shen Shuyi's eyes were watery, as if she were a little drunk.
"I also want to drink sweet wine."
Hearing her coquettish words, Wen Yanci couldn't resist and could only gently coax her.
"How about we drink it tomorrow?"
"Oh no!" Shen Shuyi shook her head.
Wen Yanci simply leaned in and sealed her lips with his. Her mouth was full of sweetness, and he couldn't help but want to taste more.
After the kiss, he almost lost control in the yard.
Shen Shuyi was sitting on his lap at that moment. When Wen Yanci stopped, she raised her head and pressed her lips to the man's.
Soon, the young scholar, unable to resist the teasing, took the initiative to explore, entangled himself, and began to savor the sensation.
Just when Shen Shuyi felt he was about to explode, she gave Wen Yanci a quick kiss on the cheek.
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, Brother Yanci~
After saying that, Shen Shuyi quickly got up from Wen Yanci's lap and ran into the house.
Wen Yanci suddenly caught up with her and pressed her against the door, kissing her passionately.
He loved her so much that he was overjoyed and wished he could die on her.
The young scholar deliberately brushed his lips against hers. Shen Shuyi twisted her body to avoid him, but Wen Yanci held her tightly in his arms and kissed her passionately again.
As they kissed, they both fell onto the bed.
The moonlight outside the window was delightful, and the bright moonlight shone in, making it seem as if one could even see the undulating shadows on the bed.
Shen Shuyi tried to push away the man buried in her, but she was too weak to tilt her neck back.
She said, embarrassed and annoyed, "You've gone too far!"
Wen Yanci looked up, his deep eyes particularly captivating. He said in a hoarse voice, "Yiyi, don't you like it?"
Shen Shuyi's cheeks flushed red, and she punched him lightly, saying, "You're talking nonsense."
Wen Yanci pulled her hand down, his voice seductive.
"Try it if you don't believe me."
……
……
They fooled around on Mid-Autumn Festival night. Wen Yanci looked completely satisfied, while Shen Shuyi nestled in his arms, unable to move.
Wen Yanci called her several times but she didn't respond, so he had to coax her, "Next time, I'll do whatever you ask me to do, okay?"
Shen Shuyi recalled the scalding heat in her hands and the man's rapid breathing near her ear, and she cried out in annoyance.
"Ah, stop talking!"
Wen Yanci chuckled and pulled her into a tighter embrace.
"Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore, Yiyi, don't be upset."
Shen Shuyi snorted, not expecting this old-fashioned scholar to be so secretly passionate.
She discovered that this man particularly liked to have his large hand roaming around in the morning, when she was still half asleep.
The slightest sound from Shen Shuyi would only fuel his anger.
She nudged Wen Yanci, "Wasn't it just last night?"
Wen Yanci went in with practiced ease, let out a particularly pleasant sigh, and nibbled on her ear. "Yiyi, I've discovered I'm addicted to you."
Shen Shuyi was truly impressed by him and protested in his arms.
"Didn't you say you'd listen to me?"
Wen Yanci chuckled softly, "Yes, I'll listen to you. What do you want to do?"
Shen Shuyi couldn't stand him like this, "Wen Yanci, you're shameless!"
"You call yourself a scholar?!"
Wen Yanci said, "Even if I were to become the top scholar in the imperial examination, I would still be unable to extricate myself from my love for you, my lady."
……
Half a month passed just like that, and it was time to release the results of the provincial examination.
As expected, Wen Yanci, who was a descendant of the God of Literature, won first place in the provincial examination and became the top scholar!
Upon hearing this news, even the owner of the haunted house who had let him stay there for free came out and loudly proclaimed that his house was auspicious, and then someone bought it for a high price.
To thank Wen Yanci, the homeowner gave him silver as a token of gratitude.
Shen Shuyi nudged Wen Yanci, "Take it, take it, it's what you deserve!"
Many wealthy merchants and gentry had previously come to invite him to dinner and give him gifts, but Wen Yanci declined them all.
But this one is different!
Wen Yanci smiled and accepted, "Okay."
In late autumn, Shen Shuyi and Wen Yan hired a carriage and set off for the capital.
The journey from Quanzhou to the capital wasn't too far, but in those days, if you traveled by horse-drawn carriage the whole way, stopping frequently along the way, it would take at least ten days.
Shen Shuyi wasn't in a hurry to travel, as traveling was too tiring. She usually stayed at an inn before sunset and rarely slept in the mountains.
It took them more than a month to travel there before they finally arrived in the capital.
Shen Shuyi did not return to the Prime Minister's residence immediately, since Wen Yanci did not have the opportunity to enter the Prime Minister's residence.
In Quanzhou, he was a renowned top scholar in the imperial examinations, but in the capital, many top scholars from all over the country gathered there, so why would the Prime Minister specifically invite him to his door?
Shen Shuyi could tell that Wen Yanci was a little anxious, so she comforted him, "Don't rush, let's talk about it after you finish the provincial and palace examinations."
"Besides, have you forgotten that I'm a ghost?"
"I can sneak into the Prime Minister's mansion at night to see my parents."
"I'm relieved to see that they are healthy and safe."
Wen Yanci suggested, "Yiyi, how about this, we rent a place near the Prime Minister's residence."
"I'm sorry, I can't buy a house right now."
Housing prices in the capital are too high. He doesn't have the ability to earn money yet, so he can only buy a house when he becomes an official and receives his salary.
Shen Shuyi held Wen Yanci's hand and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you to buy me a big house, Brother Yanci."
She and Wen Yanci excitedly found a house to rent and began decorating to prepare for the New Year.
The imperial examination will be held in February after the Lunar New Year!
Shen Shuyi visited the Shen couple before the New Year. The couple looked worried, and their daughter was lying on the hospital bed, barely clinging to life. They had no mood to celebrate the New Year.
Therefore, Shen Shuyi redeemed a small item in the system shop and sent them a dream, a sweet dream that foreshadowed her waking up soon.
Of course, the original owner of this body is already dead.
She could only fulfill her filial duties and seek revenge on behalf of the original owner.
On New Year's Eve, Shen Shuyi and Wen Yanci prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. The two drank plum wine and talked about their future life.
As she ate, Shen Shuyi was given extra food by the lustful scholar.
This is no longer the rigid, dull scholar he once was; he's practically...
Shen Shuyi grabbed the man's wandering hand, "Hey, who's the ghost here?"
"I feel like you've drained all my yin energy!"
Wen Yanci leaned down to kiss her, his large hand gradually increasing its pressure, and he coaxed in a low, husky voice, "Yiyi, sit on top of me."
