Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring

Wang Jianzhi and Yan Jinyu haven't seen each other for a long time, and they are both deliberately avoiding each other.

But news of each other would occasionally reach their ears.

Some people flattered Yan Jinyu by mentioning Wang Jianzhi in front of him, while others tried to curry favor by mentioning Yan Jinyu in front of Wang Jianzhi.

It was nothing more than openly or secretly flattering Yan Jinyu in front of Wang Jianzhi, praising her for her talent and virtue, and expressing their willingness to follow her to the death.

They hoped that Wang Jianzhi could leak even a little bit of these words to Yan Jinyu so that he could rise to prominence.

Little did they know, the relationship between Wang Jianzhi and Yan Jinyu was no longer what it used to be.

Just like those who try to gain favor with Yan Jinyu by using Wang Jianzhi's name, they are all delusional.

A month has passed. Yan Huaiji has long since gone to his fiefdom, and Song Zhaoming has left the capital. Now, only Yan Jinyu and Wang Jianzhi remain on Chu Yun's chessboard.

The warmth and affection of the Xie family were enough to captivate Wang Jianzhi, and Chu Yun's beauty and talent were enough to win his heart.

Although the rumors may be exaggerated, Wang Jianzhi was undoubtedly very fond of Chu Yun, and his affection for her grew stronger every day.

The final steps are urgently needed.

On the eve of the Lantern Festival, Chu Yun took the initiative to invite Wang Jianzhi to go out and enjoy the lanterns.

When the beautiful woman made a date with him, Wang Jianzhi always accepted.

So, as soon as night fell, Wang Jianzhi took Chu Yun to the lantern market.

The entire street was decorated with colorful lanterns hanging in front of shops of all sizes and styles, creating a delightful and vibrant scene.

Wang Jianzhi and Chu Yun walked side by side, followed by Qingyuan and Qingying.

"Ah Yun, do you have a lamp you like?" Wang Jianzhi asked softly.

Chu Yun's gaze swept over the lights, but she didn't find any that suited her, so she just shook her head and said, "No."

Wang Jianzhi: "It's alright, there are still so many shops to visit, no rush."

Chu Yun nodded.

The two looked at each other and smiled. Wang Jianzhi's heart stirred slightly, and he took Chu Yun's hand.

Chu Yun's pupils contracted slightly, but she did not struggle; her cheeks simply flushed red instantly.

Wang Jianzhi was greatly encouraged. He separated Chu Yun's hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.

Their intertwined hands were hidden in their wide sleeves, and no one knew it except for Qingyuan and Qingying behind them.

The group strolled leisurely through the bustling city, finding it quite enjoyable.

Suddenly, the crowd stirred and all moved in one direction.

From afar, you can hear the announcement, "Fuxizhai Lantern Riddle Festival, don't miss it if you're passing by!"

"Ah Yun, shall we go check out that lantern riddle competition?" Wang Jianzhi asked.

Chu Yun shifted her gaze and saw that Fuxizhai had been surrounded by pedestrians who had rushed over after hearing the commotion, forming three or four concentric circles.

Since they were there to admire the lanterns, they weren't afraid of crowds, and Chu Yun nodded in agreement.

The four of them then went to the periphery of the crowd to watch the excitement.

The servant was already explaining the rules of the lantern riddle competition on the round platform.

"My Fuxizhai has thousands of lanterns of various colors, among which the most beautiful and eye-catching is the prize for this lantern riddle competition - the glass lantern."

As soon as the servant finished speaking, someone brought a lantern onto the stage.

The lantern was completely transparent and carved into the shape of a lotus flower, looking incredibly lifelike.

Although exquisite, it is not unique in the world. It is not difficult to spend more money to have someone carve one.

Some people complained, "These lanterns are nothing special, how can they be used as a lucky charm? Fuxizhai is too stingy!"

A group of people below echoed this.

The servant smiled and said, "Please don't be impatient, everyone. Just wait and see."

He held the lamp firmly, lit the tinderbox, and ignited the wick. The flame illuminated the lamp, emitting seven colors, shimmering and shining brightly.

Someone gasped softly, exclaiming in admiration, "What kind of lamp is this? The color is so beautiful!"

Seeing the crowd's surprise and praise, the servant smiled smugly, "This is the latest lantern researched by my Fuxizhai. It is made of glass and uses a unique technique to create this rainbow-colored lantern."

This lantern hasn't even gone into production yet, but I dare say you won't find another one like it anywhere else in the entire Great Yan!

The commotion attracted passersby, and more and more people gathered around.

Wang Jianzhi shielded Chu Yun, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "A-Yun, do you like that lamp?"

Chu Yun smiled and said, "I like it."

"Then I will win it for you?" Wang Jianzhi said in a low voice.

He rarely referred to himself like that, which surprised Chu Yun, who looked at him in astonishment.

"Don't worry, my lady, I will not lose." After saying this, Wang Jianzhi turned to Qingyuan and Qingying and instructed them, "Keep an eye on my lady."

Then, Wang Jianzhi rushed out of the crowd and went to the high platform.

Chu Yun's gaze followed his movements.

Wang Jianzhi, with his robes fluttering and a smile in his eyes, gracefully walked up to the high platform.

Her striking appearance drew admiring glances and praise from those around her.

"What a distinguished young man!"

"I wonder about his academic abilities?"

......

Chu Yun was among them, listening to the chatter of several girls praising Wang Jianzhi. She lowered her head slightly, her face turning even redder.

Wang Jianzhi caught a glimpse of Chu Yun with her head down and thought she was still shy, which amused him.

He wasn't as at ease as he seemed, afraid that his words might have made Chu Yun think he was being presumptuous. Seeing Chu Yun acting like a quail, his regret subsided considerably.

He adored Chu Yun's naturally shy and charming appearance.

There were twenty or thirty people standing on the platform. The servant said, "We have enough people. Those who are interested, please come up in the next round. Contestants on the platform, please try to guess the riddles as soon as possible."

The lantern riddle competition features over a thousand riddles and thirty riddle boxes. Challengers draw riddles on stage and must answer twelve riddles correctly to pass and receive a prize. Those who answer incorrectly are immediately eliminated.

Fuxizhai brought out the glass lanterns to promote their future sale. The more difficult the riddles and the longer the lantern festival lasts, the greater the hype.

Therefore, those thousands of riddles were all very difficult.

In a short period of time, more than a dozen people answered incorrectly and were eliminated, but others quickly filled in.

Wang Jianzhi persisted the longest.

Compared to the constant turnover of contestants at other riddle boxes, Wang Jianzhi's perseverance naturally attracted attention.

What's more, he was also so good-looking.

It attracted almost everyone's attention.

"How many questions did he answer correctly?" someone asked their companion.

"I didn't see it clearly, he guessed too fast, it seems to be... nine?" someone responded.

"Wrong, wrong, there are eleven," someone else said.

"Then he's about to win, isn't he?"

"Exactly."

......

Wang Jianzhi did indeed answer eleven questions correctly.

He only needs to answer one more question correctly to win the prize.

The servant on the high platform was on the verge of tears. Who could have imagined that such a formidable figure would appear? His master's plans were about to fall through.

He watched helplessly as Wang Jianzhi took out the last riddle, constantly praying in his heart that Wang Jianzhi would answer it wrong.

Unfortunately, God did not wish.

Wang Jianzhi got it right again!

He smiled slightly at the servant, "Young man, I have won!"

This is asking him for a lamp.

The servant was heartbroken, but he could only take the lamp and deliver it to Wang Jianzhi.

"Thank you."

Wang Jianzhi picked up the lamp and slowly walked down from the platform.

Wherever he went, everyone made way for him.

Many young ladies were captivated by the young man carrying a lantern, and they all covered their faces with handkerchiefs while secretly glancing at Wang Jianzhi.

Unfortunately, they were destined to be heartbroken.

The young man walked slowly but firmly toward a beautiful young woman. She was as beautiful as a lotus flower and had her hair styled in a traditional Chinese updo.

In addition, the young man's gaze towards the woman was so tender it seemed to melt hearts.

There was nothing else that the crowd didn't understand.

These two are definitely a couple!
