Chapter 309 I Want to Be in a Relationship
<>
Yu Liu was half-heartedly led to a courtyard in the Regent's Palace, where a large group of servants rushed up and overwhelmed her. Her white robe was removed, and she was dressed in a pale yellow ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), which made Yu Liu appear even more lively and adorable. Her loose hair was tied up and adorned with a jade hairpin, and her shoes were also changed. In just a short while, Yu Liu seemed like a completely different person from head to toe.
"So... what are we going to do?"
She shook her head uncomfortably. The little palace maid had probably had a bad eye; she'd adorned her head with a ton of hairpins—some inlaid with jade, others with gold—all quite heavy and making her head feel uncomfortable. The clothes were fine, but perhaps the person who brought them hadn't chosen them well; they seemed a size too big. It wasn't very noticeable from the outside, but she felt like she was stepping on the hem when she walked.
Wang Sun Chuquan looked at Yu Liu slowly walking towards him and nodded in satisfaction: "Nothing much, I'll just help you dress up. You look so beautiful, the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, like the moonlight on the horizon, pure and white as snow... um..."
Seeing the strange look in Yu Liu's eyes, Wang Sun Chu Quan awkwardly touched his nose: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong again? Uh oh, haha, I mean, was my description wrong?"
Yu Liu's forehead was covered in black lines. She was utterly helpless: "...I don't want to be the moonlight at all. Oh right, I heard that being the white moonlight is a miserable experience."
Yu Liu didn't even know why she said the last sentence.
"Eh? You know about 'white moonlight' too?!" The term "white moonlight" didn't exist in ancient times. Anyone who knew it could only have either heard of it or was a time traveler. This excited Wang Sun Chu Quan, who rushed towards Yu Liu and grabbed her hand. "We really are a match made in heaven, soulmates! Do you know how miserable it is in ancient times? They all don't understand me. My days here are incredibly lonely, facing a bunch of people who don't understand me every day. My feelings are just...unbearable QAQ!"
Finally able to speak his mind to someone, Wang Sun Chuquan couldn't help but give Yu Liu a bear hug. Yu Liu, who was much smaller than him, was held in his arms like a child, and kept rubbing against him.
From an angle that Yu Liu couldn't see, Wang Sun Chu Quan revealed a somewhat lecherous smile, his eyes gleaming with cunning, and his hands began to wander inappropriately toward Yu Liu's waist.
Yu Liu was completely unaware of what was happening and was somewhat stunned by what she was seeing.
This is nothing like what was promised! After reading the diary, Yu Liu thought she knew her target well enough. She thought he was a regent who valued his reputation, appearing aloof and sophisticated in public, but occasionally revealing a goofy side in private. However, after actually getting to know him, the goofiness was on full display. But what happened to the aloofness?! Liar!
Having finally touched it enough, Wang Sun Chuquan placed Yu Liu on the chair next to him and sat down close to her.
"Come, come, have some tea. This is fresh tea buds from before the rain, just brought as tribute from the Yunzhong region this year. The tea is sweet and delicious, perfect for girls. Let's chat while we drink, exchange feelings, and get to know each other better. Don't worry, I'm a respectable person." He smiled and poured tea for Yu Liu, filling the small teacup before handing it to her personally. As Yu Liu reached out to take it, he pretended to casually touch her small hand.
Yu Liu was completely unaware of the accidental touch. She took the teacup blankly, took a small sip, and found that the tea was indeed as sweet as Wang Sun Chu Quan had said.
She seemed a little uncomfortable with how things were progressing, her face flushed slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, she asked, "So... what should we talk about?"
Wang Sun Chuquan wore a smile, but his hand, resting on his lap, clenched into a fist in an instant, then quickly relaxed, leaving a faint, inconspicuous damp mark on his dark clothes. This subtle stain hinted that his inner state wasn't as relaxed as his outward appearance suggested. His mind raced, desperately trying to recall the "wife-chasing secrets" he'd seen online in his previous life.
"Just...just chat normally, it's okay, don't worry, I'm very easy to talk to." Thinking for a moment, feeling that the last sentence wasn't quite right, Wang Sun Chuquan nervously clutched his clothes again: "Uh, I mean, I'm very good at talking, uh no, I'm especially good at talking, no, uh it's just..."
My mind is racing, it's practically tangled up.
If Yu Liu couldn't see his nervousness at this moment, all those worlds she had lived in would have been for nothing. She was already secretly delighted, but on her face she showed a slight, reserved smile: "...Are you trying to say that you're good at chatting?"
"Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly what I wanted to say!" Wang Sun Chuquan was so excited that he felt a little weak in the knees when he met Yu Liu's gentle smile. "We can get to know each other better, and then you'll find that I'm really the perfect man for you, really! And don't you think this is fate? I just want to hear what you have to say. You're a time traveler too, right? Me too. In this vast world, it's such a great fate that only the two of us have traveled to the same world. We can't let this choice go to waste. Don't worry, after we get married, I promise I won't smoke or drink, I won't stay out late, I won't mess around, I won't beat my wife, and I won't have affairs. I'll be super obedient. Will you consider me?"
Once he relaxed, he started blurting out whatever came to mind without thinking. If Yu Liu hadn't known he was nervous, she might have misunderstood.
“Great! It’s rare to find someone who has had the same experience as me. I can give it a try.” Yu Liu’s eyes crinkled into a smile. She didn’t deny that she was a transmigrator, since she herself had transmigrated from another time.
"You agreed?" Wang Sun Chuquan couldn't believe his ears. He stared wide-eyed and exclaimed in surprise. His brain was slow for a few seconds before he reacted and excitedly rubbed his hands together. His lips stretched to his ears, and he looked so lewd that it was hard to look at him directly.
Yu Liu covered her eyes with her hands and turned her head away: My Aning... how did she become like this...?
"Wow, this is absolutely fantastic! I must immediately announce to the world that I have a queen!!"
After his initial excitement subsided, Wang Sun Chuquan stood up abruptly, abandoning Yu Liu, and ran off on his own. His shouts still echoed in Yu Liu's ears, but he had vanished without a trace.
Yu Liu: I suddenly have some doubts about my decision...
