Have You Written Your Will Today?-Chapter 500 - 493: Since You’ve Learned, You Ought to Try
The light flickered inside the room, and the incense burner was lit, emitting a subtle and elegant fragrance.
His words, on the contrary, calmed Shen Hua down.
"What’s wrong with me reading some miscellaneous books? Maybe I should remind you that you were the one who sent them to me. Now it turns out, you’re blaming me for it."
"Prince, it’s better to be reasonable."
Her slender fingertips jabbed his chest again and again. It seemed like she was ready to argue with him all night long.
"Anyone unaware would think I’ve done something outrageous and unforgivable."
Suddenly she leaned closer, looking as if she was about to kiss him, but she sniffed like a cat instead.
"Have you been drinking?"
His Adam’s apple bobbed, his face stern—possibly from the alcohol, perhaps the night brought more intense emotions than the day. The body reacts so strongly; it’s hard to control.
"It’s a day of celebration. I had to drink a few glasses."
He changed his sitting position to hide the physical reaction, his voice unexpectedly hoarse.
Shen Hua looked skeptical.
She knew that many people had toasted Cui Yun.
But she did not expect him to drink every glass offered.
Others may have been measured, but Ji Huo loves chaos and wouldn’t mind getting someone drunk, enjoying their downfall.
The girl looked down at him majestically, her eyes luminous yet clear. She held her chin up, affecting an air of haughty elegance.
"Indeed, after all, being engaged to me is a great honor."
She indulged in the thought.
"No wonder you act this way."
"Actually, I genuinely envy you."
What stroke of luck for Cui Yun! To be able to marry Yangyang!
If she had a tail, she’d wish she could wag it up to the sky at this moment.
Cui Yun’s gaze was deep, just observing her intently.
Shen Hua’s eyes swiveled round, the rich aroma of wine in the air was tempting, and she swallowed her saliva.
"It smells strong. It seems even finer and more pleasant than the two jars you brewed before. You wouldn’t know, the wine on the ladies’ table today was so bland, it might as well have been plain water."
The women of Shengjing would just sip lightly, unlike her, who could be called a real drinker.
"I’ll get some from Duke Fu’s Mansion later."
How could Cui Yun not know what she meant.
"That was wine sent from the Imperial Palace."
"Oh, then I’ll go to the Imperial Palace to get some."
At Duke Fu’s Mansion, she would restrain herself a bit, but at the Imperial Palace, she could take everything she wanted.
She planned her real business and then brought the topic back to the present. The girl pondered over the book for a moment. Her emotions were filling up.
"We’ve just gotten engaged and you’re already giving me that look. What will it be like in the future?"
Truly, she was rather rational. These days, Cui Yun had been careful, hardly giving her any chance!
She scoffed arrogantly.
"Better be careful, it’s a good thing it’s focused on you."
"If it was directed at some other young man, you might have to find a corner to cry."
Cui Yun listened quietly, his lips tugging into a smile that was not quite a smile.
"You have a point."
"I have already asked Ying Yi to inform Ji Teng, someone will definitely suffer the consequences. Let’s not talk about the miscellaneous books for now... But..."
He paused.
The girl was not intimidated, transparent and unconcerned.
"But what?"
"I just wanted to ask Miss Shen, are miscellaneous books more interesting or is this book even better?"
Saying so, he pushed aside those miscellaneous books, accurately picked up one from the very bottom. In front of Shen Hua, without giving her a chance to dodge, he casually flipped a page—the content so inappropriate it was shocking.
Shen Hua frowned, stunned for a moment.
She quickly came to a realization.
This was the book she casually took the last time she was in Ji Huo’s study. Only when she got back, she realized it was an erotic rarity.
Even more visually striking than that wall.
With textual explanations too.
That night, the girl, eyes wide open, read through it thoroughly and gained a lot of insights.
Afterwards, she casually tossed it aside and forgot about the existence of this book, but unexpectedly, Cui Yun found it.
She remained calm and not at all panicked. The girl slowly shuffled her slippers, striding over to the couch where Cui Yun lay, on the inner side. She, strong in mimicry, copied Cui Yun’s posture and half-sat.
While he was lazy and languid, the girl was delicate and playfully coy.
Cui Yun knitted his brows and laughed irritably.
But before he could speak, Shen Hua’s voice came faintly.
"How can one compare the two. I indeed find it hard to decide the winner. However..."
She lowered her voice, very sincerely: "After all, it will be used on your body eventually."
Cui Yun felt even more passionate.
His heart trembled fiercely. His breathing also became momentarily disordered.
Just as Shen Hua was about to say something more, he pinned her beneath him. The scent mixed with alcohol showered over the tip of her nose.
An ungentlemanly kiss fell, wishing intensely to swallow her whole.
But it still wasn’t enough.
Shen Hua was kissed until she couldn’t hold back. Her calves tensed straight.
His kisses turned tender, as if to soothe her.
The nightgown was pushed upwards, revealing swelling skin as white as snow.
Her eyes blinked, wet and misty with tears, shimmering like broken light through jewels.
Cui Yun grabbed her hand: "Since you’ve learned, you ought to try it."
Curious, Shen Hua got distracted, but her eyes were then covered. Her palm was led downwards.
"Don’t look."
She heard his coaxing voice next to her ear.
"Good girl, touch it."
Shen Hua was momentarily stunned, her hand guided by him.
Yet after a few movements, she came back to her senses suddenly and retracted her hand swiftly. She no longer cooperated, the girl noticeably annoyed.
She pushed Cui Yun, furious.
"It clearly wasn’t like this!"
Last time, Cui Yun used his hand to...
This time...
The Minister of Ministry of Justice, usually so sharp, why so stupid in this aspect?
Shen Hua wanted to mock him. Yet she held back.
She threw the book at him: "Come back after you finish reading!"
He didn’t move, the two of them locked in a standoff, but in the end, it was him who couldn’t stop a low chuckle.
Shen Hua didn’t understand how he could still laugh.
Clearly, he should have felt ashamed.
Cui Yun wiped her hand with a handkerchief, then wrapped her up with a quilt like a cocoon, leisurely picking up all the books that had been knocked onto the floor, as well as the clothes on the ground. His eyes shimmered with a seductive red at the corners.
He grabbed a nearby tea and downed a few cups. He drank urgently. Only after the cool tea did he feel better.
Cui Yun didn’t look at Shen Hua again.
He put on his robe and said.
"There are still some cases at the Ministry of Justice I need to review, I need to go there. I won’t be able to accompany you."
"Tomorrow, come to the Cui family for a meal, wait for me to pick you up. You also had a tiring day, rest early."
Shen Hua didn’t understand how Cui Yun could speak to her so calmly and evenly. She watched in astonishment as Cui Yun, holding a stack of books, walked out.
She also heard the sound of the door opening, and his instructions to Ji Qing.
"Burn them all."
Shen Hua: !!!
Sadly, she looked up at the canopy of her bed.
Just then, someone returned seemingly having forgotten something. The footsteps were neither hurried nor slow, but they infuriated her greatly.
"Huh!"
So annoying!
Shen Hua clearly didn’t want to see him. She just turned her head away, facing the wall.
His fingertips gently grazed her tender cheek.
He bent down, "Shen Hua, I care about you, so I don’t touch you. If I really did, your frail body couldn’t bear it."
"I was about to leave, but I thought I should come back to tell you, lest the fiancé you mistook is thought impotent in bed."
