Chapter 35 Making a Scene in the Carriage
Sheng Yunche took a deep breath and adjusted his mindset: "Why did you suddenly bring up the extraterrestrial stone?"
“It’s like this…” Ye Mingzhu picked up the spice packet on the table and explained the situation, “When I was checking the spice packet just now, I found a few black stones inside.”
"There is a medical case in the book 'The Mysterious Pearl of Chishui' that tells of a person who picked up a stone that fell from the sky and took it home. Soon after, he contracted a strange disease of 'limb pain, skin ulceration, and hair loss'..."
“My father also encountered a case where a man went to the mountains to collect folk songs and brought back a strange, reddish-brown rock. A few days later, he started vomiting blood non-stop and almost died. Later, it was discovered that the culprit was that rock, which may have been a meteorite from outer space.”
"My lord, I suspect the spices in the spice packet are secondary, and the incompatibility of spices and medicines isn't that important either. The key is the black stone! It might be a meteorite from outer space!"
Ye Mingzhu stated her conclusion.
Sheng Yunche stared at her for a long time, then suddenly asked, "You call me husband?"
"...Huh?" Ye Mingzhu didn't react. "What?"
“From now on, call me husband.” Sheng Yunche said calmly. “Calling me Duke is too formal, and people will think that we are not getting along.”
Ye Mingzhu subconsciously replied, "We never had any feelings for each other to begin with?"
Sheng Yunche looked at her coldly.
"Yes..." Ye Mingzhu replied, completely bewildered, and quickly added, "About the flying rocks from outer space..."
"Since you have already sent the spice packet to the Ye residence, then wait patiently. If my strange illness is indeed caused by a flying stone from outer space, then we can treat the symptoms accordingly."
Ye Mingzhu: "Okay..."
"Is there anything else?" Sheng Yunche asked again.
"That's all," Ye Mingzhu asked. "Is there something you need?"
"have."
"What's up?"
"sleep."
Ye Mingzhu: "...?"
It's best to just go to sleep and not do anything else before bed...
Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed, and she bit her lip gently in resignation.
...
The heavy rain outside the window made the night even quieter.
The window is only slightly ajar, enough for ventilation, and it also prevents the strong wind from blowing cool rain into the house and causing people to catch a cold.
No, I shouldn't catch a cold.
Ye Mingzhu's lips were swollen from the kisses. She was held in Sheng Yunche's arms, her back pressed against his chest, constantly warmed by his body temperature. A layer of fine sweat had already seeped out from her forehead and temples.
Unfortunately, whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, whether he was asleep or not, his heavy arm crossed her side and his large hand was placed under her body, with the back of his hand against her chest.
In addition, his fingers were slightly bent, and...
She tried to ignore his hand, but she couldn't.
Left with no other choice, she carefully moved the man's arm away, trying to slip out of his embrace. But as soon as she moved, he moved too, raising his arms to hold her even tighter.
Ye Mingzhu: "..."
Her mind was in a mess, and her face was getting hotter and hotter.
She endured it for a while longer, but finally couldn't take it anymore. She raised her hand and lightly patted the man's arm, gritting her teeth and muttering, "Annoying!"
Then, in despair, I closed my eyes.
Fortunately, sleepiness was "heavy" than despair. Ye Mingzhu's hair was soaked with sweat, but her breathing became long and slow.
After she fell asleep, Sheng Yunche opened his eyes in the darkness and let out a smug hum. He brushed aside her sweat-dampened black hair, kissed her porcelain-white cheek, and finally loosened his grip on her a little.
There was an ice chest in the room, and as long as he didn't deliberately "bully" her, she could sleep comfortably at night.
that is……
He closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
Everyone says that you should learn to apply what you learn. He has read that erotic picture book countless times from beginning to end. When will he be able to use it?
...
This time, the Ye family acted swiftly.
Ye Mingzhu sent a spice packet to the Ye residence via Baozan, and the results came on the third day.
However, Ye Chengji's letter contained only the word "yes" and no other words, suggesting that he wanted to wait until they went to the Ye residence for a medical consultation before speaking to them in person.
Based on this deduction, things are definitely not that simple.
It just so happened that the next day was Sheng Yunche's day off, and Ye Mingzhu took him out early in the morning.
On the carriage.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of the black stone and how to treat the illness caused by the falling stone; she had no interest in even lifting the curtain to glance at the street scene.
Sheng Yunche glanced at her a few times.
Seeing that she was deep in thought and looked like she was about to die from her own troubles, he simply reached out and pulled her into his arms, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Suddenly, her body felt light, and a warm sensation washed over her lips. Ye Mingzhu was shocked and embarrassed when she heard Sheng Yunche acting recklessly in the carriage. She let out a soft "Ah!"
But because of that exclamation, the moment her lips parted slightly, Sheng Yunche accidentally took her lips into his mouth and his tongue entered her mouth.
Ye Mingzhu felt a chill run down her spine, and her bright almond-shaped eyes widened even more, making her look like a frightened cat.
Sheng Yunche was clearly not prepared for this situation, and looked surprised. But no matter how surprised he was, he did not stop his attack. Instead, he hesitated and kissed him again.
After that, his phoenix eyes suddenly lit up, his gaze intense.
With one hand gripping the back of Ye Mingzhu's neck, he instinctively kissed her tongue, intensifying his attack.
He showed her five words through his actions: he wanted more.
Ye Mingzhu: "..."
She was almost breathless from his kisses, so she tried to back away while pushing him away with her hands.
But the more she tried to back away, the more he pushed forward.
Only when she was pressed against the soft cushion and finally gave up struggling did Sheng Yunche, who was pressing her down to kiss her, loosen his grip a little. He chuckled and soothed her by pinching the back of her neck and kissing her cheek, as if rewarding her for her obedience.
It's unclear how much time passed, or whether the commotion inside the carriage was heard by Baozan, who was sitting on the outside carriage frame.
There was a knock on the carriage door. After coughing twice, Baozan called out loudly from outside, "Miss, no, Madam, we're almost at the Ye residence!"
Ye Mingzhu could no longer hold back. Seeing that the man's heavy breathing showed no sign of stopping, she reached out and pinched his waist, then pushed him away slightly as he winced in pain, scolding him irritably, "You... Ouch..."
She gasped after uttering just one word, as if she couldn't speak.
"What's wrong?" Sheng Yunche's heart tightened, and he quickly pinched her chin to see where she was uncomfortable.
Ye Mingzhu: "..."
My lips are numb!
But she was too ashamed to say it.
Fortunately, Baozan reminded her in time. By the time Ye Mingzhu had just finished tidying her clothes and touching up her lip rouge, the carriage had stopped at the entrance of the Ye residence.
As soon as Ye Mingzhu got out of the car, she praised Baozan in her heart for being so sensible.
Madam Zhen waited at the door with Ye Yu and his wife, and little Ye Cheng was also there. If she stayed in the car to touch up her makeup and didn't get out for a long time, wouldn't everyone be able to guess what she and Sheng Yunche did in the car?
With this thought in mind, Ye Mingzhu turned her head and glared at Sheng Yunche.
Sheng Yunche cleared his throat and raised his hand to touch his nose.
The couple's little display of affection was noticed by Madam Zhen and Madam Wang. The two exchanged a smile, and Madam Wang stepped forward to greet them, "Lord Duke, eldest sister, you've finally arrived! Please come in!"
Without delay, the group headed straight for Ye Chengji's study in the front yard.
Under the ginkgo tree outside the study, Ye Chengji, who was fiddling with something on the ground, looked up at the sound and waved to Ye Mingzhu and the other person: "Come and see, this is the power of that thing."
Ye Mingzhu's mind cleared instantly, and she quickly stepped forward.
