[Palace Struggle? Sweet Pet? Female Lead Transmigration]
In the fifth year of Yongyan, the emperor orders the grand selection.
Wen Wanyu is the most outstanding in appearance among this...
Chapter 19 Wanwan
As soon as he arrived in the yard, Xie Junyao saw Cheng Shuyi and Wen Wanyu talking and laughing, with bright smiles on their faces.
I heard Cheng Shuyi say, "Wanwan, do you want to play another round?"
Wen Wanyu agreed cheerfully, "Okay."
The two of them walked towards the two sides of the pool table with a smile.
...but no one found him.
Especially at the beginning of the game, both players' eyes and attention were only on the ball, they were concentrating and staring intently.
For convenience, Wen Wanyu did not wear a bulky outer garment. A pink dress outlined her slender figure.
Fine rays of light filtered through the branches and fell on her black hair. A jade hairpin was inserted diagonally into her bun, making her fair little face look even more well-behaved and meticulous.
We have to make the tassels for the step-shaking ornaments quickly.
After watching half the game, Xie Junyao felt a little bored, so he took the initiative to speak and let them know that there was a living person like him in the yard.
He smiled and said, "It's an unfortunate coincidence that I came here."
Wen Wanyu and Cheng Shuyi were stunned, put away their pool cues and hurriedly paid their respects.
After asking them to get up, Xie Junyao walked over to them and asked, "Is this the billiard ball you mentioned last time?"
"Yes. Does the Emperor want to fight?"
Xie Junyao raised his eyebrows: "We can give it a try."
He looked at Wen Wanyu again, a faint smile on his face: "You teach me?"
Listening to the two of them being affectionate with each other, Cheng Shuyi took a deep breath and bowed: "Then I will go back first."
"Okay." Xie Junyao didn't even raise his head.
Cheng Shuyi cursed in his heart: "The ghost is still there." He raised his foot and left Chang Lixuan.
Wen Wanyu rearranged the billiard balls.
I heard him ask, "Wanwan?"
Wen Wanyu subconsciously said "Hmm?"
Xie Junyao smiled faintly: "Your nickname is Wanwan? Which Wan? The Wan in your name?"
Only her closest people know her nickname Wanwan, and only her closest people call her that.
For selfish reasons, Wen Wanyu didn't want to tell him, nor did she want him to know the nickname Wanwan.
But once you tell a lie, you have to lie countless times to cover it up. It's so tiring.
"No." So he told the truth: "I will tie your heart with my black hair, and spend the passing years with you hand in hand."
"Wanwan. Wanwan." Xie Junyao repeated it twice.
After a long while, he said, "It sounds good."
"Thank you for the praise, Your Majesty." Wen Wanyu smiled at him.
Xie Junyao stretched out his left palm in a formal manner, spread it downwards, and spread out his five fingers: "Why didn't you tell me your nickname?"
Wen Wanyu: “…” The key point is that you didn’t ask.
And they even want to know the nickname, what about checking the household registration?
Xie Junyao imitated her billiards posture and asked, "Is that so?"
"Your Majesty, please move your body down a little bit." Wen Wanyu chuckled, then pushed his body down a little bit.
She would never admit that she was taking personal revenge.
"Use your thumb and index finger to hold the cue stick in your palm like a ring, and the other three fingers can just hold it loosely. Note that the direction of the cue stick must be consistent with the direction of the cue ball."
The moment she approached, a faint, elegant fragrance lingered around his nose.
Without thinking too much, Wen Wanyu pushed his hand down a little.
How unkind, Xie Junyao thought.
Xie Junyao has a strong ability to understand and learn. Wen Wanyu only needs to give him a few instructions and his posture will be very standard, like a professional who has been practicing for a long time.
Wen Wanyu was a little unconvinced. Is this what an excellent student looks like in the eyes of a teacher?
"Your Majesty, try hitting a ball."
Xie Junyao putts with confidence.
As a result, the ball was hit off-center and stopped after only rolling two centimeters.
Wen Wanyu couldn't help but giggle. She was careless. This was not an excellent student at all. It was far from being one.
Xie Junyao didn't know what went wrong. His posture and angle were correct. Shouldn't this be the case?
He turned sideways and was about to ask when he found Wen Wanyu covering her mouth with her hands while laughing. Xie Junyao felt extremely embarrassed and said with a straight face: "Is it funny?"
Wen Wanyu stopped smiling immediately.
He comforted her in a formal manner: "Your Majesty, you are already very good. This is your first time fighting, practice makes perfect."
This is not comfort at all. This is just rubbing salt into his wounds.
Xie Junyao didn't believe it and tried again.
But this time it was not as good as last time, the white ball flew out of the table and landed on the ground, rolling for a while.
Wen Wanyu laughed shrilly in her heart, but on the surface she didn't dare to smile.
Xie Junyao was even more puzzled. Reason didn't let him throw the club away. Instead, he slowly put it down and said, "I'm not in shape today."
Wen Wanyu moved closer to him, her eyes slightly lowered, the corners of her lips curved gently, and her voice was soft and pleasant.
"Your Majesty is already very good. When I first started playing, it was common for me to miss the ball. Could you please tell me a few tricks?"
Xie Junyao felt relieved immediately: "Yeah."
"For close shots, hold the club close to the center of gravity; for long shots, hold it close to the butt. The club must move horizontally."
Wen Wanyu demonstrated it to him again, explaining it in great detail, not missing any details.
He handed him the club again and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to try again?"
Xie Junyao took it and, following her technique, successfully hit the ball and rolled it into the hole.
Wen Wanyu clapped enthusiastically, her voice sweet and soft: "Your Majesty is amazing! Amazing! Amazing!"
"It's important to say it three times!"
Xie Junyao's vanity as a man was gradually filled by her, and the slight annoyance he had just felt was also "blown away" by her.
"Would you like to compete with me?"
Wen Wanyu: “???” So arrogant? If I compete with her, she’ll definitely win. What’s the point of competing?
Xie Junyao tapped her forehead and said, "Don't give in to me. If you win, I promise you one thing. If I win, you promise me one thing."
Wen Wanyu: "I have nothing to give to His Majesty."
Xie Junyao leaned close to her ear and said, "...... (Bebes, fill in the blanks yourself)"
Wen Wanyu blinked her clear eyes, her cheeks and ears turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye. She raised her hand and hit him, "Your Majesty, it's still daytime! Be serious."
Xie Junyao laughed: "Wanwan, what are you thinking about?"
"Let's get started. Otherwise Wanwan will think about other things."
Wen Wanyu: Speechless. I've never been so speechless in my life. She's thick-skinned, but she met a man who's even thicker-skinned.
No track.
During the competition, Wen Wanyu and Xie Junyao were concentrating and did not allow themselves to be disturbed.
The result is beyond doubt, Wen Wanyu won, even though she gave in.
Xie Junyao was not discouraged. "It's agreed. I can promise you one thing."
Wen Wanyu approached him and looked at him with extremely gentle eyes.
"I am a little greedy."
Xie Junyao said "hmm" casually, his emotion invisible: "Go ahead."
"I want Your Majesty to always be kind to me, just like today."
Her tone was a little drawn out, and there was a hint of coquettishness in it.
Xie Junyao lowered his eyes and met her gaze calmly: "You are truly greedy."
"Then does the Emperor agree?"
"nature."
The moment she said she was greedy, Xie Junyao thought of many answers, but fortunately they were all wrong.
Always be nice to her.
Really greedy.
But what's wrong with always being nice to her?
It was still early, so Xie Junyao stayed for a while and then returned to Chengqian Palace.
But when she said, "I'll have someone pick you up in the evening," Wen Wanyu knew that she would have to sleep with him again that night.
In fact, she was quite favored among the newlyweds. She was the one who slept with the emperor the most.
She was not in a hurry, because she could not compare with the stable players like Concubine Zhengui and Concubine Wan. She could only barely squeeze into the favored list.
