Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs

After a long while, Shen Yu didn't realize when he had turned his gaze back to Wu Tongxue.

He was resting his head on his arm, gazing at the starry sky.

The white, wide-sleeved brocade robe was covered with red embroidery, adorned with clusters of flowers, and a red auspicious beast belt with small gold ornaments hanging from it, shimmering with golden light.

He was born with a jade-like figure and an ethereal beauty, exuding wealth and spiritual energy, truly possessing a divine aura.

The little fairy was being unruly, lazily sprawled on the edge of the table, a red mark pressed against his cheek.

Shen Yu raised her hand and touched his full head of black hair, which was incredibly smooth.

Wu Tongxue was bewildered. "What are you doing?"

My head was a bit foggy from drinking too much. I felt that Shen Yu's actions were somewhat familiar, but I couldn't quite place them.

Shen Yu calmly withdrew her hand. "How many did you count to?"

“Hmm…” Wu Tongxue gazed at the stars thoughtfully, “Three hundred? Two hundred and ninety-nine?”

He then nodded in confirmation, "Yes, it's two hundred and ninety-nine."

He looked at Shen Yu again, and said, "Three hundred." Then he turned back to continue counting the stars.

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked up at him.

The drunken little fairy was still counting stars, his eyes filled with stars, dazzling and mesmerizing.

The little fairy looked down at him and smiled.

"Shen Yu, you are also a star." It seems someone once said that people become stars after they die.

If you push it again, everyone will become a star.

Well, that makes sense.

Wu Tongxue included herself in the count as well.

Shen Yu's possessiveness swelled again, and at this moment, he wanted to hide his god.

"My lord," a eunuch waiting below came up to remind him.

The palace gates are about to close; if we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave the palace tonight.

Shen Yu waved him away. At this moment, his status as the emperor's favorite minister came into play, and he was allowed to stay overnight in the palace.

The Star-Picking Tower was built by the last emperor of the previous dynasty for a favorite concubine, but unfortunately, she died young and was assigned to the Imperial Observatory in this dynasty.

Now, the emperor has directly given it to Wu Tongxue as the residence of the Imperial Preceptor.

"Little Snow."

"Hmm?" What is it?

Wu Tongxue didn't lower his head, only responding with a questioning tone. He seemed determined to count the stars exactly.

His right hand was grasped and gradually intertwined with the other person's fingers before he was willing to lower his head, looking puzzled.

Why are you playing with his hands?

It's Shen Yu. There's nothing wrong with letting him play with it for a bit. She even squeezed his hand tightly and smiled at him.

“You’re not angry anymore,” Wu Tongxue affirmed.

Shen Yu is not an emotional person and always appears calm and composed, but Wu Tongxue can keenly perceive his emotional changes.

For example, Shen Yu is very happy right now.

I don't understand, but as long as I'm happy.

Just give him more gold coins.

Glancing at the book he was deliberately turning his back to, Wu Tongxue began to feel a headache coming on. "Being the Imperial Advisor is so difficult."

Shen Yu said, "It's not difficult."

"It won't be difficult as long as you listen to me."

"Really?" Wu Tongxue looked at the book, then at Shen Yu. How could it not be difficult? This is just a matter of memorizing from the very beginning.

Shen Yu played with his soft, warm hand. "Really."

Wu Tongxue had only a vague impression in her mind: Shen Yu was very powerful, and since he was so powerful, she could trust him.

"I believe you," Wu Tongxue asked sincerely, "Then how can I listen to you?"

"Come down, I'll tell you." Wu Tongxue had her back turned, facing the opposite direction of the moon, so Shen Yu's expression was not very clear.

He propped his head up to look at Shen Yu, who was leaning against the chair, and suspected that Shen Yu was trying to trick him into sitting on the floor with him.
