Just when Dean Bai was beginning to doubt whether this person even existed, Master Feng happened to arrive.

"Jiang Changtian?"

"I personally collected this student's exam paper, how could it be missing?"

He glanced at the exam papers as he collected them; the handwriting was beautiful and showed great integrity.

The main reason was that he had read the student's previous papers and saw that the student was a promising talent, which is why he paid more attention to him.

Dean Bai frowned upon hearing this. "Go and ask who has been to the Chouqin Pavilion?"

The person in charge of guarding the Chouqin Pavilion arrived shortly afterward.

The inspector said, "Besides Young Master Shi Luo, only Master Li and Steward Liu went in before this."

"Did they tamper with the exam papers?"

Dean Bai thought about the two people.

One was the steward in charge of miscellaneous tasks, while the other was a slightly more famous teacher in Wuyun County, who, after being recruited, is now considered a teacher at the academy.

The guard thought for a moment, "Manager Liu only asked a question at the door and didn't go in, but he did see Teacher Li inside. He said... he wanted to see how his students did on the exams in advance, but I said I would wait for all the teachers to grade them together, so Teacher Li left."

"He didn't touch the exam paper?" Dean Bai frowned.

"Well... I'm not sure, I don't think so." The guard seemed uncertain.

"Go ahead, and while you're at it, call Master Li here."

Master Li arrived very quickly.

"Did the dean summon me here with any instructions?"

Dean Bai didn't waste any time and went straight to asking about Jiang Changtian.

Master Li frowned at the mention of Jiang Changtian, his tone filled with disgust. "This student was unruly and spent his time drinking, frequenting brothels, and harassing women. His character was truly unpleasant. He ended up getting into trouble because of a woman who fell off a cliff."

The disgust on Master Li's face and in his tone was unmistakable.

In his eyes, Jiang Changtian was a student of poor character, even if he was academically competent.

"I understand, you can go back now." Dean Bai's face was expressionless.

Master Li's brows were furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly. "Did the dean call me here because he's gotten into trouble this time?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Jiang Changtian should be seriously injured."

Feng Fuzi, who was standing to the side, spoke up, "You're overthinking it. Jiang Changtian is also here to take the exam."

"What?!" Master Li's face showed great surprise.

Then he frowned and said, "It's best if the dean doesn't accept a student like him, lest he tarnish the academy's reputation."

"The academy is best positioned to make this decision. You should go back now." Dean Bai had already given it some thought.

After Master Li left, there were no outsiders left.

Dean Bai looked at Master Feng and said, "The exam papers are now missing, which is a dereliction of duty on the part of the academy. Master Feng, would you be willing to accept this student?"

Master Feng was a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), and in theory, he could have become an official. However, he had no interest in that, and due to some changes in his family, he came to teach in Wuyun County with Dean Bai.

The students I will mentor at that time will be promising candidates who will pass the imperial examinations and become scholars or officials.

Even Dean Bai should be consulted regarding his wishes.

Master Feng originally wanted to refuse, but for some reason he thought of that resolute gaze, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Let him come to my class."

After finishing his words, Master Feng left without lingering.

Dean Bai rubbed his hands together as he paced back and forth, whispering to Shi Luo, "You and Shi Feng go and personally deliver the admission notices to Jiang Changtian."

Dean Bai admitted that he had ulterior motives for accepting Jiang Changtian so easily.

Even if someone's scholarship is a complete mess, he'll still accept them if they're willing to speak up for him.

Shi Luo had already composed herself and brought up another matter, "Dr. Yin hasn't shown his face yet, so he's probably no longer in Wuyun County."

Dean Bai sighed, "Let's try to find another way. Before I left Beijing, I took your two brothers' heads as collateral. If you can't cure your grandmaster's illness, you two won't need to keep your heads."

Shi Luo: ? ? ! !

Why are their heads taken, and not yours? Dean, are you being polite?

……

……

The rooster crowed three times, and Lin Shuyun, with dark circles under her eyes, went back to her room to sleep.

He climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) using both his hands and feet and hugged Jiang Changtian tightly.

Jiang Changtian became alert and woke up instantly.

Just as he was about to push the man away, Lin Shuyun clung to his chest and pressed herself against him.

"My love, I'm so tired, let me hug you!"

The hand that was about to push the person stopped in mid-air, and the roots of her ears instantly turned red.

He was, after all, a normal man. With a soft, fragrant woman nestled in his arms early in the morning, his heart was instantly stirred.

But then the person in his arms let out a soft moan.

Lin Shuyun felt completely comfortable, oh, the energy! She felt like a human energy replenishment machine.

As expected, God has been kind to her!

Although she transmigrated to ancient times and no longer had zombies to extract her essence cores, she was given a man who could replenish her dream energy.

The only problem is that her dream volume is a bit low, and her superpowers have only recovered to about 30% of what they were before.

While Jiang Changtian was distracted, the person on top of him was breathing evenly.

Jiang Changtian: ...

My restless heart gradually calmed down.

"Yunniang, is it time to eat?"

Li knocked on the door from outside.

Jiang Changtian shifted his body, but Lin Shuyun hugged him even tighter, so he had no choice but to say, "Mother-in-law, she just came in and went to sleep. Let her sleep a little longer."

"This girl, I heard the door open in the middle of the night and thought she had already gone home to rest. She's been staying up all night processing dried apricots again!"

Li's voice rang out from outside the door, and a moment later Lin Hongwen arrived, only to be stopped by Li.

"Your sister and brother-in-law are still sleeping. Don't disturb them. Let them sleep a little longer."

Lin Hongwen had come to seek Jiang Changtian's guidance, and upon hearing this, he scratched his head and simply sat down on the steps outside the room to wait.

It's already broad daylight; he'll probably get up soon.

Jiang Changtian heard that he hadn't left and was about to find an excuse to send him back when Lin Dahai came again.

He tried to go inside but was stopped at the door by Lin Hongwen.

"Dad, what are you doing? My brother-in-law is holding my sister while she sleeps. Aren't you disturbing them by going in?"

"you……"

Lin Dahai wanted to ask what time it was, but couldn't bring himself to say it. He blushed deeply, his face turning red and then black. He simply snorted and turned away.

Jiang Changtian, who was inside the room, was also extremely embarrassed. He tried to get up, but Lin Shuyun clung to him like an octopus.

The more it struggled, the tighter it became, leaving it only able to stare blankly at the sky.

Lin Shuyun slept for two hours.

I woke up feeling refreshed, especially since the handsome man was sleeping next to me when I opened my eyes.

She was about to reach out and touch the handsome man's face.

The handsome man spoke coldly, "Could you please get up for a moment? My arm is numb from being pressed down by you."

Lin Shuyun awkwardly got up and asked with a forced smile, "Husband, are you alright?"

"It was fine before, but if you keep suppressing it, something will go wrong."

Jiang Changtian's eyes were filled with resentment.

Lin Shuyun chuckled and very attentively helped Jiang Changtian up, then drew an even fainter red mark on Jiang Changtian's face.

The two had just come out of the house when they heard a teasing voice.

"Oh my, the newlyweds are so sweet together. You two should at least be more careful about what you do during the day. Do it when no one's around."
