Waaah, I'm being forced into loving my yandere wife's brain.

Shen Jin's fingertips, which were resting on the back of Lin Zhiyao's head, were gently stroking it.

Only after grinding has been complete did they slightly move back half an inch.

Lin Zhiyao's pink lips were tinged with red, even more moist than before, with a little moisture on her cupid's bow, which shone slightly in the candlelight, making her look even more alluring.

"cousin......"

She was panting pitifully, her chest heaving violently, and the neckline of her light blue spring dress rose and fell slightly with her breath, revealing her fair and delicate skin as smooth as tender jade.

She had no idea how alluring she looked.

"Yaoyao..."

Looking at her like this, Shen Jin let out a low sigh, "Yao Yao, you have such a soft tongue."

The hand that was holding Lin Zhiyao's head moved forward half an inch and instead pinched her soft cheeks, with the thumb and forefinger stuck on both sides of her snowy cheeks, forcing Lin Zhiyao to open her mouth slightly.

"Mmm!"

Lin Zhiyao winced in pain, her brows furrowing. Before she could say anything, Shen Jin's kiss landed on her again.

This time it's much heavier than before.

Shen Jin is extremely aggressive.

Lin Zhiyao was so shocked that she tensed up, her hand pressing against his chest and gripping his clothes so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

The burning hot tongue pried open Lin Zhiyao's teeth.

Lin Zhiyao trembled all over, as if she had been burned and wanted to shrink back, but Shen Jin held her firmly against the wall, leaving her nowhere to escape.

This time it was completely different from the previous half-hearted attempt.

The kiss was deep and intense, bringing tears to her eyes.

Lin Zhiyao felt like she couldn't breathe; her nostrils were filled with his breath, making her dizzy.

She let out a weak sob, and the hand she pressed against his chest changed from clenching to patting, but the strength of her grip gradually diminished.

Shen Jin noticed that her breathing was disordered, so he finally withdrew slightly.

Shen Jin looked down at her and saw that her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears, her eyelashes were covered with tiny water droplets, her lips were slightly red and swollen, and she was breathing heavily with her lips slightly parted.

Like the crabapple petal that he eventually crushed, it oozes a touching sap.

Shen Jin's fox-like eyes were deep.

He gently wiped Lin Zhiyao's lips with his thumb, as if he were polishing some precious porcelain.

Lin Zhiyao trembled violently in his arms, her teeth chattering, tears streaming down her face, but she dared not cry out.

My cousin... my cousin has really gone mad!

She's destined to become a concubine in the palace, how could she... how could she be so close to him...?

Lin Zhiyao cried softly, letting out delicate, fragile sobs like a small animal.

"Cousin...cousin...that's enough...please, please put me down..."

Lin Zhiyao's eyelashes were wet with tears, clumped together pitifully, and the watery light in her almond-shaped eyes appeared even more precarious in the candlelight.

Shen Jin stared intently, his fox-like eyes growing ever deeper.

"My cousin can't handle this?"

Shen Jin's deep voice was even hoarser than before, carrying a hint of languid satisfaction. His thumb still lingered on the corner of her lips, lightly rubbing against the rosy color, his smile deep. "The night is still long. The teaching has only just begun."

Lin Zhiyao was so frightened that she stopped crying. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she stared at him, but the corners of her eyes were wet and red, and the tip of her nose was also red, making her look even more pitiful and cute.

"Cousin, cousin..."

My cousin has gone mad!

Lin Zhiyao shook her head repeatedly, trying to bring him back to his senses. "Cousin, you clearly know I'm going to the palace... how can you do this to me... ugh!"

Shen Jin tightened his grip on her snowy cheek, forcing her to stop talking.

Lin Zhiyao didn't know what was wrong with him.

He had just said something similar, but now it was as if he had heard some extremely displeasing news. His handsome face instantly turned gloomy, so dark that it was almost frightening.

Shen Jin stared intently at her with his deep, fox-like eyes, and slowly spoke, "Cousin, do you really intend to enter the palace and marry that old emperor?"

Lin Zhiyao felt a mix of bitterness at not wanting to enter the palace and fear at the thought of him continuing his madness. Hearing this, the tears she had been holding back started falling again. "Cousin, why are you saying all this now? Two years ago, this was all decided two years ago..."

Almost immediately after Shen Jin left the Shen residence, she was selected from the collateral branches and sent to the Shen residence to prepare and train for entering the palace.

The Shen family had only one mistress, her aunt. Shen's father never even took a concubine, so his offspring were naturally few and far between. He only had one son, Shen Jin, and never had a daughter.

Therefore, the Shen family had no choice but to select from collateral branches.

Entering the old emperor's harem, while not the best marriage for a young lady, was a stepping stone to success and a way to build a good relationship with the Shen family. So, it should have been a dream come true for the girls from the collateral branches, but for some reason, her aunt mentioned her alone.

Thus, she, who had lost her mother unexpectedly five years ago and her father three years ago, and was regarded as a jinx who brought misfortune to her parents, came to the Shen family two years ago.

Putting aside everything else, even within the Lin family, there were quite a few girls from similarly humble backgrounds who envied her. Before she left, they went up to her and said a lot of sarcastic and jealous things.

Lin Zhiyao was trapped between Shen Jin's arms and the wall, unable to move. Recalling the past, her heart ached even more, and her brows furrowed, making her look even more pitiful. "Cousin, this was all arranged by Aunt a long time ago. Didn't she tell you?"

"Is it settled?"

Shen Jin repeated it in a low voice, his tone somewhat strange.

As Shen Jin finished speaking, the hand that was pinching her cheek loosened its grip slightly.

His fingertips remained pressed against her soft cheek, slowly sliding down, along the delicate vein on the side of Lin Zhiyao's neck, stopping at her pulsating heartbeat, gently caressing it.

Lin Zhiyao could feel the thin calluses on his fingertips brushing against her skin, arousing a subtle shiver.

She dared not move, even her breathing became shallow, like a bird being stared at by a snake, her body slightly tense.

Shen Jin looked down at Lin Zhiyao's trembling eyelashes, not answering directly, but instead continuing the previous topic, asking her in return, "Since Mother has made the decision, are you also willing?"

Why is my cousin acting like he's drunk? He can't understand what people are saying.

Even a clay figure has a bit of fire in it.

Lin Zhiyao raised her eyes, somewhat annoyed.

The candlelight reflected in her almond-shaped eyes, which were still glistening with tears, and a single teardrop clung to her eyelashes, flashing briefly in the light.

Especially now, with her almond-shaped eyes blazing with anger, they looked even more striking.

Shen Jin looked at her like this, and his Adam's apple bobbed again.

"So what if I'm willing, or I'm not? Do you think my aunt will stop me from entering the palace just because I say I'm unwilling?"

Lin Zhiyao's tone was firm. Since she couldn't break free anyway, she decided to just be blunt and make things clear.

"The portraits of the next batch of imperial concubines have already been sent to the palace. Having passed the initial screening, wouldn't arbitrarily changing the selection be a crime of deceiving the emperor? If someone declines for any reason, how could my aunt possibly agree?"

She had no choice.

Shen Jin seemed not to understand, his gloomy expression receding like the tide, and he chuckled softly, saying only, "So you're unwilling."

Then he continued his frenzy, kissing her lower lip as a reward, followed by his hot breath on her neck.
