The Emperor on Top, Imperial Concubine Underneath (6)
The system couldn’t bear to look straight at her,
Can’t you not put on any makeup?

Bai Weiwei replied coldly,
I need to wait until the right time to remove it, I have to act like I like this horrifying make-up.

Suddenly, Bai Weiwei paused,
System, do I have to serve him in the bed?

System:
He’s not coming for idle talk, did you really think Sheng Siyu would just come all the way over here for small chat then cover you with the quilt and let you fall asleep?

Bai Weiwei bit her lip, she was silent for a long time. The she suddenly washed her face, and then took out the original owner’s waterproof makeup.
System:
What are you planing? Host, this makeup is very difficult to wash off.

Bai Weiwei gnashed her teeth and answered:
This old woman doesn’t want to roll under the sheets, so I must scare Sheng Siyu enough so it won’t stand up. This would be my first night and I can’t spend it with some rotten stranger.

System:
Whoever you give it to, it will be a sacrifice for favorability points.

Bai Weiwei painted her face.
I won’t, I want to keep it for myself. I am so beautiful, it makes me reluctant to give myself to others.

System:
…

Mom, this host is really crazy.
When evening came, the old servant and eunuch who came to help prepare the concubine saw Bai Weiwei’s terrible face and jumped in fright.
Did the Mistress want to scare people to death in the middle of the night? It was not necessary to go out to the city, with this ghoul just standing here it was enough to scare many palace maids and eunuchs to death.
But the Emperor was also a man, it was possible that he wanted to change his tastes. .
Although this taste was a bit heavy.
– – – – – – – – – –
The Head Eunuch lit the candles.
Then he turned back to bow and respectfully said,
Emperor, it is time to go rest now.

Sheng Siyu put down the pen in his hand and stood up gracefully,
Let’s go.

The head Eunuch stared blankly, in the past, it was necessary to remind him several times, on the contrary, today it looked like he couldn’t wait to go.
He also remembered that the Emperor asked him today,
Who is that girl in the pond?

The head Eunuch was the person in charge of the inner palace1. He was responsible for all the women, so he certainly knew who that woman was.
After answering, he heard the emperor’s cold voice say,
Tonight, turn over her plaque2.
The emperor had always flipped the plaques in order, one round a day, no one was favored.
This was unexpected, but he thought about how Bai Weiwei’s face that was accidentally exposed, and felt that all men were always interested in fresh things for a short while.
When he came to the entrance of the palace, Sheng Siyu had the servants withdraw, and he went in alone.
The lights in the palace were very bright, enough to see Bai Weiwei sitting on the bed.
Sheng Siyu saw her face, and his footsteps paused. He suddenly turned and pulled out the sword that was hanging on the wall. The sword’s glare flashed, and he aimed to cut down Bai Weiwei.
Bai Weiwei was communicating with the system. The emperor’s face was beautiful, his legs were long, and his hair was silky black and she could tell his kidneys were good3.
Although she was attractive, she could imagine how it would feel for a handsome man to come into this type of scenario, he would feel a bit aggrieved for sure.
The result was just as show, and the sword was swung down.
Bai Weiwei’s scalp became numb, and her whole body rolled straight to the side and she hid under the bed.

You lying system, you’re dead to me now. Was this favorability 10? Or was it negative 10?

System:
No mistakes, it is 10.

Sheng Siyu’s voice could be hear from outside and was cold and gloomy,
Where are you monster? Impudent, daring to come before us4.

‘Monster’ Bai Weiwei was silent for a while, only to say weakly,
Your Majesty, this servant is Bai Daying.

Sheng Siyu:
…

【Ding, the male lead’s favorability went down by 8, only 2 points remain.】
Bai Weiwei heard the notification from the system and couldn’t help but grind her teeth.
Sheng Siyu, your uncle, she was wrong. She thought this guy was not moved by beauty. And as a result, she lost her face, and his feelings fell faster than anyone else.
