Chapter 28 Kissing an Lonely Person Will Make My Heart Ache
The eldest princess waved her hand and called her favorite male prostitute to Lin Yanshu's side.
The man walked with graceful steps, his eyes full of allure, staring at her with an innocent and pitiful expression, and said in a mournful voice:
“If Miss doesn’t drink, the Princess will be angry, and we servants will definitely be punished.”
Every word is heartbreaking.
Lin Yanshu looked up at the eldest princess on the table. The eldest princess was so beautiful, she didn't seem like such a ruthless villain.
However, out of kindness, Lin Yanshu still drank the wine offered to her.
It was spicy, and a little sweet. The spiciness made her throat hurt a little. Lin Yanshu's face flushed red, and she opened her mouth slightly, trying to find something else to relieve the spiciness.
The male prostitute pinched a green grape and stuffed it into Lin Yanshu's mouth.
Lin Yanshu was startled and sat there blankly, chewing on the grapes. She felt the spiciness in her mouth lessen and her cheeks flushed as she thanked him.
The eldest princess saw all of this and thought Lin Yanshu was a very innocent and fun-loving girl.
She had someone replace the wine at Lin Yanshu's table with sweet wine.
"Miss Lin, do you like this young male prostitute? How about I take charge and send him to your residence?"
Lin Yanshu shook his head frantically, waving his hands around.
The eldest princess said jokingly:
"What kind of man does Miss Lin like? If you can't say, I can send you one of every kind of handsome man I have here."
Lin Yanshu imagined a scene where a bunch of handsome men of all kinds were in the courtyard, and when Li Chengyi returned and couldn't find her, he would only see a bunch of men and say something indecent with a cold face.
She smiled, pursing her lips.
"More handsome? More generous? More interesting? More of a good person?"
Seeing Lin Yanshu's reply, the princess was certain that her nephew had not yet won the girl's heart.
The eldest princess smiled:
"I thought you would mention Zhao'er."
Lin Yanshu's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with surprise, or rather, horror. She frantically shook her head, denying the conclusion.
She and Ah Zhao are good friends!
Throughout the banquet, the eldest princess chatted idly with Lin Yanshu.
The banquet didn't end until it got dark.
Lin Yanshu had drunk a few too many cups of sweet wine. Although she wasn't completely drunk, she felt a headache coming on and stood quietly in the corner waiting for the carriage to arrive.
A carriage pulled up nearby and stopped. Lin Yanshu looked up, but she couldn't see clearly in the darkness. She assumed it was a carriage coming to pick her up.
She took two steps forward, only to see that the carriage curtain had been blown open by the wind.
Her eyes widened, and she rubbed them in disbelief. The person in the car was her master, Ji Yuan.
That old man who had been out of contact for several years.
But he wasn't the only one on the bus.
The master's clothes were disheveled, and a jade-like hand touched his face.
Ji Yuan turned his head away in shame and indignation, speaking with righteous indignation.
Lin Yanshu was too far away and had been drinking, so her mind was not clear and she couldn't hear.
It's unclear what the person inside the carriage said, but the other person seemed to become impatient. They grabbed the driver's clothes, pushed him onto the carriage, pinched his chin, and kissed him.
Master glared, wanting to resist, but the princess pinned his hand against the wall. In Lin Yanshu's eyes, Ji Yuan was simply playing hard to get.
Lin Yanshu was completely stunned. Not only had his old master found a second spring in the capital, but the woman opposite him was Princess Chang.
So, is the reason why the master stayed in the capital and didn't return because of a woman?
The thought sprouted in Lin Yanshu's mind, and she was so angry that her teeth itched. How could her master do this! He abandoned her without a word and didn't care about her at all.
Lin Yanshu was so angry that she had a headache. She wanted to go up and question her master, that heartless old man, but because she had been drinking and was angry, she lost her footing and fell to the ground.
The carriage was just coming along and blocked her view.
When the maid saw Lin Yanshu fall to the ground, she quickly helped her up and put her in the carriage.
Lin Yanshu was speechless and could only watch helplessly as the maid helped him into the carriage and returned to his residence.
Well, at least she saw her master and knew he was in the capital. If she put in the effort to find him, she would eventually be able to find him.
Then he shouldn't blame his disciple for being so rebellious.
Lin Yanshu was so angry that she locked herself in her room.
A wave of intoxication washed over her, along with her emotions. She didn't know how to face this reality, nor who to talk to.
When Li Chengyi returned, he didn't see Lin Yanshu, so he casually asked the servants.
"Miss Lin is feeling unwell after the Princess got drunk and is currently staying in her room."
Li Chengyi frowned. Why was his aunt still making Yanshu drink alcohol?
He quickened his pace and walked to Lin Yanshu's door, where he gently knocked. Lin Yanshu opened the door and saw Li Chengyi standing there.
With the chill of the winter night in the air, Lin Yanshu couldn't help but shiver.
Li Chengyi noticed that Lin Yanshu was shivering from the cold air outside, so he stepped inside and closed the door behind him.
Lin Yanshu's face flushed. He raised his hand and placed it on Lin Yanshu's forehead, asking gently:
"Why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Yanshu shook her head dejectedly. She didn't know what to say, and looked up at Li Chengyi with tears in her eyes.
She should be happy and joyful to have found her master, but the thought of being abandoned by him for so long without a word to her makes her feel heartbroken and sad.
She's his only apprentice, how could he be so heartless?
Seeing the tears in Lin Yanshu's eyes, Li Chengyi panicked slightly. He raised his hand to wipe away the warm tears from the corner of Lin Yanshu's eyes, his expression softening considerably, and his voice becoming very gentle:
"What's wrong? Did your aunt bully you?"
"Yan Shu, don't cry, it will break my heart."
Lin Yanshu sniffed, her eyebrows drooping as she shook her head.
She didn't know how to say it, or even how to describe it.
She grabbed Lee Seung-ik's wrist and pressed him down onto the stool by the table.
He gestured anxiously:
"I saw my master today."
Li Chengyi's expression shifted. Yan Shu had found her master? Then wouldn't there be a chance for her voice to be healed?
Lin Yanshu gestured with a conflicted expression:
"But... but he was with the eldest princess."
Lin Yanshu didn't know how to describe the incident of her master being forcibly kissed by the Eldest Princess. She pressed Li Chengyi against the table and imitated the Eldest Princess's actions:
“Your Highness, she…that’s how she is…”
Lin Yanshu imitated the eldest princess, aggressively touching Li Chengyi's cheek, lightly stroking Li Chengyi's jawline, and gently scraping Li Chengyi's skin with her fingertips.
Lin Yanshu bent down and approached Li Chengyi, then grabbed Li Chengyi's chin with her hand and drew closer.
Li Chengyi's pupils dilated as he stared intently at Lin Yanshu's face.
What...what is she going to do?
Lin Yanshu lowered her eyelashes, wondering what to do next.
Did he really kiss Ah Zhao?
Won't Ah Zhao be driven crazy by her?
Li Chengyi stared intently at Lin Yanshu, knowing that his aunt was a womanizer.
It's likely that they did something inappropriate to Master Lin Yanshu.
Lin Yanshu was too ashamed to say it aloud, so she could only demonstrate it to herself. However, she hesitated now.
Li Chengyi reached out and grabbed Lin Yanshu's waist, then spread her legs and pulled her into his arms.
Lin Yanshu was held tightly in Li Chengyi's arms, and she looked at him with some panic.
Lee Seung-ik tilted his head back and his eyes curved into a smile:
"is that so?"
As he spoke, he stared at Lin Yanshu's rosy lips and kissed them. Li Chengyi had never kissed anyone before, but men often have an innate talent for such things.
He tilted his head back, narrowed his eyes aggressively, and tightened his grip on Lin Yanshu's hand, demanding a kiss.
The medicinal scent on Lin Yanshu mingled with the incense scent on Li Chengyi, making Li Chengyi feel that Lin Yanshu's body was soft and yielding.
Lin Yanshu had never been embraced and kissed before, especially not by someone so proactive and passionate.
She opened her eyes in shock and was forced into Li Chengyi's arms. She passively responded to Li Chengyi's movements.
Lin Yanshu's lips went numb from his kisses, she felt hot all over, and her head was spinning.
She couldn't breathe properly, so she just held her breath, her little face turning red. Because of the lack of oxygen, her legs felt weak, and she could barely stand.
Li Chengyi noticed Lin Yanshu's awkwardness, so he smiled and pulled her onto his lap, where she sat.
He was completely dazed and gasping for breath.
Did she just... kiss Ah Zhao?
She numbly reached out and touched her lips that had been kissed.
Li Chengyi knew that what he was doing was taking advantage of Lin Yanshu's vulnerability and bullying her.
He coughed, trying to coax Lin Yanshu:
"Are your master and the others like that?"
Lin Yanshu nodded blankly, then shook her head.
She's not quite thinking straight right now; she's thinking about that kiss.
Seeing Lin Yanshu's current dazed and clumsy state, Li Chengyi took advantage of the situation:
"Then tell me, Yan Shu, what are they really like?"
Li Chengyi despises himself, yet he cannot control himself from seducing Lin Yanshu like this.
Looking at Li Chengyi's eyes, Lin Yanshu didn't even think twice and obediently did as he was told.
She recalled the actions of the coachman and the others on the carriage:
"You should do it this way..."
Lin Yanshu grabbed Li Chengyi's wrist, pulled him back, and pinned him to the table.
She moved closer to Lee Seung-ik, looking at him hesitantly.
Li Chengyi, like a poisoned apple coated in sugar, looked at her tenderly and coaxed her enticingly:
"It's alright, Yanshu, continue."
Lin Yanshu pressed down on Li Chengyi's wrist and kissed him forcefully.
Pressed down on Li Chengyi, Li Chengyi passively watched Lin Yanshu on top of him, clumsily and awkwardly imitating how to forcefully kiss a man.
Lin Yanshu felt that she wasn't assertive enough, but she didn't know how to be assertive. She was already pressing down on Li Chengyi with all her might.
She looked up and saw Li Chengyi squinting his eyes in enjoyment as he stared at her.
Feeling embarrassed by Li Chengyi's gaze, she pulled out a hand to cover his eyes.
Li Chengyi was amused by Lin Yanshu's shy actions and chuckled a few times.
This made Lin Yanshu so anxious that she opened her mouth and bit Li Chengyi.
How could he laugh at himself?!
Li Chengyi was caught off guard and bitten. A tingling, painful sensation came from his lips, and he felt as if he could taste the metallic taste of blood in his mouth.
Lin Yanshu stood up and wiped her mouth, which was stained with Li Chengyi's blood.
Li Chengyi watched Lin Yanshu's actions, licked his lips, and found them somewhat sweet.
Lin Yanshu felt she might have drunk too much sweet wine and her mind was foggy; she had actually kissed Li Chengyi again. Although it was a demonstration, she didn't dare look at him.
