Chapter 156: Being both an Empress and a Maid (Part Two)
The former Empress on the other side jumped like a little deer, then pouted in anger, “Who’s the maid, who’s the servant?!”
Wen Yu adjusted his posture, “Oh, well,” he laughed, “Fu Chengque, you seem to have misunderstood. It’s already started, you know! Former Empress, you’re not keeping your word, are you?”
Too much!
She’s already left without keeping her word!
Why is she standing here, listening obediently like a little maid?!
Fu Chengque grumbled inwardly, muttering to herself, “Here we go,” “Maid sounds so unpleasant,” while slowly moving closer, awaiting orders.
Wen Yu glanced at Xiao Qingmei with satisfaction—
Fu Chengque looks so good!
She stood there, slightly tilting her head, too nervous to meet his gaze.
But Wen Yu could still sense her shy demeanor from her downcast eyes.
His gaze lowered, seeing the girl’s delicate and blushing face, as if carved from white jade, her teeth gently biting her lower lip. Even though she had fallen from “Empress” to “maid,” there was still a sense of defiance and stubbornness about her.
With a slender neck and a spring dress partially revealing her collarbone, the allure extended downwards…
Fu Chengque twisted her clothes nervously in front of her, clearly anxious and uneasy.
Wen Yu suddenly felt a storm brewing before him, comprising her youth, her innocence, and her subtle but unmistakable resistance and attraction towards him, almost pulling him in!
Stay calm, stay calm.
Wen Yu cleared his throat lightly, saying, “If not a maid, then what?”
Fu Chengque’s gaze met his, and after a few glances, she seemed to lose some of her nervousness. Then, in a sweet voice, she replied, “How would I know… Today, you’re the boss! Whatever you say, I’ll obey…”
Just now, after being scrutinized by Wen Yu’s gaze—
The girl’s heart was dead!
Whether Wen Yu unleashed a flood or a beast, she had decided to endure it.
Today, she’d endure being bullied like a tiger fallen to a plain, for she was like King Yuexi, who had endured hardships. As long as Wen Yu, the princess, hugged her, it would be fine! After all, today was just settling a debt…
On the other side, Wen Yu rubbed his chin in thought, pondering on what to call her. After a while, he called out, “Qiao’er?”
Fu Chengque’s heart sank.
She nodded.
Qiao’er it is, better than anything else.
This was a title completely unlocked from her past life!
Wen Yu became enthusiastic, calling out “Qiao’er, Qiao’er” repeatedly, earning a few eyerolls.
Then he proudly asked, “What should you call me?”
“…”
“What should you call me?”
Fu Chengque stammered twice, but no sound came out. Wen Yu saw this and kept pressing with questions like he was urging someone to their death.
Finally, she forced herself to take a deep breath, lamenting inwardly, “Authors of scandalous tales, please spare me. Don’t record this part of history, or the whole world will laugh at it!”
After a while, she closed her eyes, steeled herself, and gritted her teeth, saying in a cold voice, “Your Majesty.”
Wen Yu was overjoyed, clapping his hands in admiration, “Wow—Qiao’er is so obedient!”
“Call me once more.”
“Your Majesty!”
“Again!”
“Your Majesty!”
“Once more!”
“Your Majesty~”
“Qiao’er~”
“Your Majesty~”
“Hahaha—”
The emperor laughed wildly, leaving the maid speechless. She blew her bangs to calm herself down.
Normally, others addressed her as “Your Majesty,” but today, it was quite humiliating. However, after calling it out, she felt that it wasn’t as unacceptable as she had thought…
It’s actually quite fun.
Taking advantage of this playful mood, she approached cheerfully, “Would Your Majesty like some fruit?”
Wen Yu was taken aback for a moment, then became excited, “Sure, sure! You prepare some for me, all kinds, make a fruit platter!”
“Alright…”
Fu Chengque got up and went to the kitchen, taking out the fruits they had just bought and preparing them.
Bananas, grapes, they had them all…
Presenting the fruits with water droplets on them, Wen Yu looked at them and suddenly became excited.
He glanced at Fu Chengque, and coincidentally met Xiao Qingmei’s gaze. Although her gaze seemed calm, there was still a hint of hidden panic.
She wasn’t panicked, she was pretending!
Nice!
He liked this playful Fu Chengque today. She was very different from her usual “domineering” self, displaying a kind of obedience and timidity after being subdued.
He resumed his previous arrogant posture—arms spread out, leaning against the back of the sofa, legs crossed.
With an undeniable tone, he called out, “Hey, feed me.”
This command, like a spark, instantly ignited various emotions in Fu Chengque’s heart, then surged out together—
She was furious! Back then, she held the golden finger, aspiring to become the peerless and beautiful Empress, but now she didn’t know how she had fallen so low, actually becoming a little serving girl to feed others! What a humiliation!
She was envious! Seeing the tasks becoming more and more successful, each one completed, her attributes soaring, the Empress was clearly within reach. The day when she would wake up in a ten-thousand-square-meter bed with a hundred thousand attendants to serve her was approaching, but… she was actually preempted by someone else, robbed of her first-hand experience!
Wuwuwu, she also wanted a maid to serve her fruit.
Feeling sulky, she reluctantly took a step forward.
Mumbling, she asked, “Which one?”
“Hmm? What about the title?”
“…” The girl took a deep breath. “Your Majesty… which one would you like?”
“Grapes!”
Straight to the point?!
Fu Chengque’s body trembled slightly. Helplessly, she took a grape from the plate, peeled it after some thought, and handed it to Wen Yu.
Upon seeing it, Wen Yu didn’t move his hand. “Feed me!”
Fu Chengque widened her eyes, stunned for a moment, then moved the grape toward Wen Yu’s mouth.
The juicy fruit wobbled in the girl’s hand. She wanted to eat it, but it was a bit far.
“Closer.”
She brought the grape closer.
“I said come closer.”
She hesitated for a moment, then took a step closer.
“Even closer.”
She had to get even closer, squatting in front of Wen Yu, holding the grape up. At this point, they were only an arm’s length apart.
So close.
They could see each other’s every expression, hear every breath, and even sense the warmth of each other’s breath before it dissipated.
Wen Yu moved to bite, but kept his eyes on Fu Chengque.
There was a somewhat mischievous smile on his face.
Fu Chengque only met Wen Yu’s gaze for a moment before averting her eyes.
That look…
Was too much!
Too… direct!
It felt like it was scraping over her body, touching every inch of her skin, close and intense.
She couldn’t help but feel shy, her earlobes burning, her face flushing hotly, as if countless tiny bubbles were rising and bursting on her cheeks, one after another, endlessly.
She didn’t want to feel this shy, as if she were being toyed with by Wen Yu, or as if she had some special feelings for him, it was uncontrollable—
She tried to suppress it, but it was futile!!!
She held up the grape, waiting for Wen Yu to eat it.
Her heart was beating faster, her eyes blinking, her eyelashes fluttering, her breath getting faster and faster. She inwardly complained about the boy, who was too slow, just to eat a grape, why was he so slow!
She sneaked a glance and met his gaze again.
Fortunately, this time, Wen Yu swallowed the grape in one bite.
He ate it.
He ate it.
He ate the grape I peeled for him!
He ate it…
