All The Bigshots Love Me [Quick Transmigration]

The lanterns of the palace in the distance are beginning to shine and the Chang’an Palace is hidden in the twilight.

The inside of the room was darker than the outside. Jiang Rui was sitting by the window.  From behind, you can only see the outline of her whole body.

But this situation of not being able to see the expression on her face clearly is more in line with Lu Xingzhou’s heart.

He suddenly spoke with a soft voice, as if he was afraid to startle someone, “Niangniang.”

The figure in front of the window slowly turned her head, the swaying steps in the bun trembling slightly. She seemed neither startled nor afraid and showed only just the right amount of surprise to this powerful eunuch who suddenly appeared in her palace just before nightfall.

“Why is Lu Gonggong here?”

Lu Xingzhou smiled lightly, as he said before, he underestimated the Empress Dowager.

He walked closer and squatted down on one knee in front of Jiang Rui.

Jiang Rui looked down at him slightly. The night was falling and the only little light left outside the window fell into his eyes, making his pair of ancient well-like eyes deeper and deeper.

Look at him like this.

That’s how you should look at him.

In her gaze, Lu Xingzhou’s somber gaze became focused and enthusiastic, concealing excitement.

The anxiety and irritability of the past few days are all gone. He finally knows what he wants.

He wants her to always have him in her eyes.

Only him.

He unconsciously stretched out his hand, trying to touch those eyes, but at this moment, she turned her head slightly.

His fingers curled up in mid-air. Lu Xingzhou seemed to recover. With a smile, he retracted his hand, “The minister will take the liberty to interrupt. There are a few inconspicuous things I want to give to Niangniang.”

He held a brocade box in his other hand and opened it. Inside were all kinds of rings and bracelets. Even if the light was dim, they still had a shiny luster. Everything inside is casual enough, enough for an ordinary person to eat and wear for a lifetime.

Jiang Rui was not surprised: “Gonggong has a heart, but—”

“The minister wants to personally put it on for Niangniang.” Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Lu Xingzhou spoke.

This meant that rejection was not allowed. Jiang Rui raised her eyes, “If I don’t agree, what should Gonggong do?”

Lu Xingzhou smiled and said, “The minister can only beg Niangniang to agree.”

Jiang Rui did not speak, just looked at him.

Lu Xingzhou stretched out his hand again and held her palm hanging casually on the edge of the couch, as soft and delicate as imagined, weak and boneless. He took out a pair of chaise bracelets from the brocade box and put them into the same wrist one by one.

Jiang Rui moved gently and the two jade bracelets on her wrist touched each other, making a crisp and pleasant sound of mutual collision.

Lu Xingzhou’s eyes were filled with admiration, “Niangniang’s hand is so beautiful. The minister was fortunate to see it that day, knowing that only the most precious treasure can match it.”

He took out a few more rings, one by one finger straps. When he was about to wear it on her thumb, Jiang Rui finally shook her wrist and took her hand out.

“Niangniang?”

It was already completely dark. Jiang Rui could not see what he was wearing on her hands, “Excuse me, Gonggog let my court lady come in and hold the lamp.”

Listening to her tone as usual, Lu Xingzhou said with a smile: “Why bother others? The ministers should serve Niangniang.”

Although it was a long time later than usual, the candlestick was still lit up.

Jiang Rui admired her hand in the candlelight. A pair of red chaise bracelets were put on her white and soft wrists. Because of the slender wrists, the bracelet almost slipped to her elbows, revealing a large area of delicate skin. Except for the thumb, each of the other four fingers wore a ring, ruby, sapphire, agate, and cat’s eye, of which the ring was larger than the other.

She only glanced at it and felt it was unsightly. She planned to take it off, but was stopped by a hand stretched out next to her.

“Don’t you like it?”

“Vulgar.”

Lu Xingzhou said with a smile, “But, this subordinates liked it very much.” He placed Jiang Rui’s hand in his palm and rubbed his thumb lightly. “Niangniang is just like this hand in the eyes of the minister. She is graceful and noble, beautiful and flawless. She was born with many foils. The minister is also willing to be around Niangniang from time to time, I don’t know if Niangniang allows it?”
