"Heavens, how could he be here? Is he here to look for Jiao Er?"
"Jiao Er is exceptional, as expected. She's even acquainted with such a person."
The young misses gathered together, looking at the shadow of Baili Jia Jue's back with blushing cheeks and eyes that seem to radiate light.
Such a resolute man, even without speaking, the slightest raise of his eyebrow could cause a person's heartbeat to speed up.
His every phrase, every word, even merely a simple gesture from him, brings with it a gracefulness that words could not describe, like well-coordinated movements that could direct victory from a thousand miles away.
"Sir?" Helian Jiao Er lifted her head in surprise, her heart burst with ecstasy, but she didn't express it. After all, many ladies from influential families were here. She needed to be a bit reserved, however, when looking at his ice-cold appearance, redness permeated her entire face. She spoke gently, "What is the reason you've come to look for me?"
Baili Jia Jue didn't say anything. After only having looked at the young girl's face, his thick brows firmly creased. Then, he turned around and left!
"Huh? Ah Jue, how come you came out so quickly?!" Nangong Lie was still greeting the young ladies outside the room. After seeing his good friend, he laughed without restraint, "It can't be, that 'little kitten's' stamina is so low?"
Baili Jia Jue coldly signaled with his eyes, chin raised gently in a graceful arc, the tone of his words like ice, "It wasn't her."
"What?" Nangong Lie was laughing devilishly before it changed, took a big step inside and looked at Helian Jiao Er's delicate face, his pair of narrow long eyes were filled with astonishment!
Chapter 25 - It Was Unexpectedly Her
Uh....
Even though Nangong Lie knew something wasn't right, but he still charmingly smiled, " Excuse me, where is Miss Helian?"
"I am." Helian Jiao Er slightly bowed her head, her thick eyelashes covering her eyes. She was pretty but not the one they were looking for.
Nangong Lie : "...…."
When the people at the Study heard someone was looking for Miss Helian, they thought that he was talking about the beautiful and talented Helian Jiao Er. Since she became the focus in only a day, no matter if you were a new student or one of the teachers, they were all talking about this lady.
That's why there was such a misunderstanding.
Nangong Lie was grumbling in his mind, his heart aching in anger. However, he kept a smiling face as he left the room like a graceful gentleman.
Helian Jiao Er didn't understand what had just happened. Why did these two men walk in while looking for her and left without saying anything else.
Regardlessly, she enjoyed the attention. Especially when they had walked in, she liked the jealous and envious gazes she was getting.
"Sister, could they fancy you?" Helian Mei was jealous when she said this.
Helian Jiao Er thought that too, but she didn't understand. There were a lot people looking, so she couldn't show her confusion, only bit at her lip and coyly said, "Don't say stupid things!"
But her tone revealed that she was very happy.
Helian Mei said, "They probably fancy you. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come all this way to see you. They probably thought that it was too rude after they have seen, so they left without saying anything."
"I'm not talking to you anymore, you'll only make fun of me!" Helian Jiao Er shyly stomped before she sat back onto the bed, her eyes shining with happiness like the beginning of a romantic relationship.
As of this moment, Nangong Lie was chasing a person, yelling, "It was a mistake, Ah Jue, a misunderstanding. I've never made mistakes before, it's those people's fault, they're too self-absorbed, that's why they thought that I was looking for Helian Jiao Er….."
"She wouldn't stay in this courtyard." Baili Jia Jue leisurely cut Nangong Lie off while looking around.
Nangong Lie was confused, "Why?"
"Did you forget that she's a waste." Baili Jia Jue smirked as he licked his injured lips, a small chilling and evil mist floating out from his eyes, "She's probably like us, living in the worst courtyard."
Nangong Lie gulped when he saw his smile. When he reacted back, he saw that Baili Jia Jue had already walked away. He silently mourned for that somebody.
Originally, they were supposed to meet that little small kitten, then maybe she wouldn't had died too horribly.
But if Ah Jue did it himself…..
Nangong Lie shivered, goosebumps appearing on his whole body as he his lips curled up devilishly. The real show was just about to start!
"Ah Jue, why don't we go and kick their door right now?"
"There's nothing to it, If you want to kick, go do it yourself, I'm taking a bath."
"You're going to bathe again? In less than a day, you have already bathe five times, don't you think it's too much?" Nangong Lie chuckled.
Baili Jia Jue ignored the person behind him. While taking off his outer robe, his eyes sparkled with an evil aura.
Knowing already where she was, there was no need to rush.
This time, he had to see how that little kitten with broken legs would run…
"Achoo!"
With the chilly wind blowing, Helian Wei Wei, who was carrying a wooden tub, sneezed, her hand rubbing the tip of her delicate button nose.
Everything was good in the White Academy, except for the fact that it still had all the schools under the sky's common problem ; taking a bath was really too inconvenient.
No matter how comfortable and spacious the rooms were, they wouldn't build a bathing room in the dorms.
Of course, the baths of Ancient Times wouldn't be as aesthetic as the ones in modern times.
Only by using this giant wooden tub, putting water into the tub, scattering some flower petals, soaking in it for awhile, and it counted as bathing.
Though the White Academy was much better, with the spring water from the mountains, they had specially build some bamboo bathing houses, even separating boys and girls.
Helian Wei Wei didn't thought too much of it as, holding her white towel and the dried petals from the ancient times, she coolly pulled open the door on the left!
Eyes met.
Without any warning her gaze met up with a pair of narrowed black eyes…..
He probably had just finished taking a bath, the soft hair on his forehead was wet and was carefully pulled with his hand at the back of his head, only revealing the ring on his pinky. The diamonds on the ring glimmering combined with his devilish aura and his innate air of arrogance made him as if he was a king inspecting his territory. The oppressing feeling he gave off made anyone unable to ignore him!
But these weren't important.
The main thing was man, even if you were taking a shower, couldn't you at least cover yourself with a towel!
Helian Wei Wei was forced to enjoy this image of an attractive man getting out of a bath, but before her cheeks were tainted in red, her whole body suddenly tensed up.
Wait a second, this man seemed familiar...
It was him!
The unlucky guy who was forcefully kissed by her!!!
Like an animal who had met danger, Helian Wei Wei's first reaction after she saw the man's appearance was to turn around immediately!
Unfortunately, it was too late...
The collar at the back of her clothes was carelessly grabbed. Although the force used wasn't very strong but it was enough to keep her in place.
Furthermore, the cold scent of a man who just had a bath was assaulting her nose, attacking her turbulently as if wanting to swallow her whole.
Helian Wei Wei just looked up and fell into a pair of deep eyes that seemed as deep as an ancient well.
This pair of eyes weren't unfamiliar to her. They were devilish, cold and heartless, looking like the Red Spider Lily blooming in hell, which were taken by demons and lingered at the road near the Yellow Springs, making anyone who wasn't careful enough to drown in th
eir dark beauty!
When the man saw her, he slightly squinted his eyes. A second later, the man's lips curved into a smirk that no demon could rival.
That dangerous smile made Helian Wei Wei thought of an idiom.' There's a path to Heaven, and yet you barged into Hell.'
This really was such a frightening coincidence!
Helian Wei Wei licked her dry lips, her clever eyes moving around as she began to think of a way to run away….
"Don't waste your time thinking." Baili Jia Jue looked down at the woman in front of him, his voice cold but lazy. He dangerously neared Helian Wei Wei's ear and said, "Do you think that after I painstakingly caught you, I would let you easily run away again, hmm ?
Chapter 26 - Targeted His Highness
The guy's 'hmm' was said in a manner that was very ambiguous. The last syllable was just like a hook, hooking onto the bottom of a person's heart. A bottom so deep it could almost cause a person to lose all of their defenses.
But Helian Wei Wei only lifted her eyebrows and smiled, devilish shrewdness not reduced by one bit.
"What is Your Excellency saying, what "wasting my time"? What "easily running away" ? I completely don't understand."
"Oh?" Baili Jia Jue grasped her chin between his thumb and forefinger, extremely angry yet hiding it in a smile, "Don't tell me, after only an afternoon and you've lost your memories?"
Helian Wei Wei smiled beamingly while rubbing her temples, "Actually, today, something did bump to me."
"Want me to remind you that you had bumped into me?" Baili Jia Jue lifted her chin, his handsome face leaned extremely close and it seemed like his every breath could touch her lips, "Maybe I should kill you now so that you can recall what 'nice things' you have done."
His tone was very cold, his words were spoken at an extremely slow speed, so slow he seemed to be at the Gates to Hell, like a death god holding a record of the deceased.
Wei Wei knew that he wouldn't easily let her escape. Additionally, in front of this intelligent man, tricks used once before would not work a second time.
Moreover, there wasn't really a lot of the poison. Yuan Ming only allowed her to use them three times. Any more than that and she would have to pay a price.
Yuan Ming was a true demon, she really didn't want to discuss prices with him.
Maybe. . . . .there might be another way.
Wei Wei tilted her face to one side, hearing the sound of water outside, her eyes flashed and she suddenly yelled out loud, "Help, molestation, ahhh!"
"Did you think that someone would believe you if you yelled like that?" Baili Jia Jue dangerously narrowed his eyes, an incomplete smile forming at the corners of his mouth appeared unusually bloodthirsty. His long and slender finger pressed down on the flesh of her lips and used force squishing them, "Looks like I've still been too merciful towards you."
Wei Wei's shapely eyes slowly lifted. Not willing to admit defeat, she grasped the opportunity firmly as she directly opened her mouth and bit down!
However, the result was..….
Not only did she fail to retaliate as she intended.
That guy unexpectedly seemed unperturbed, not minding at all that she had bitten him. He even wickedly used his long slender finger between her teeth to scratch the tip of her tongue.
Wei Wei's back became stiff and she almost blurted out a string of swear words!
"Why not continue, hmm?" Baili Jia Jue dragged her over again, his countenance calm. "****not bad."
The corners of Wei Wei's lips lifted, "Since His Excellency has the time to praise me, how about putting on your clothes …..because my plan all along was not as simple as to have people mistake that you've molested me. If you don't believe me, then listen, one, two, three, coming!"
The sound of her voice had just stopped when from outside came the sound of knocking on the door!
Wei Wei took advantage of the bustle and like a molting insect, slipped out from under her outer robe. No one could see clearly how she did it. Her speed was very fast, so fast that it was like a blur and confuse one's vision. In a flash, she jumped away from the guy. This kind of movement would probably be difficult for other people to execute, but Wei Wei wasn't like other people, she was an ace secret agent from the mercenary guild. This kind of taking off the clothes move was one of their necessary skills. In order for him not to notice, from the very beginning, she took advantage of an opportunity to undo her collar. Their wordy exchange after that was only a cover for this escape at the end!
Baili Jia Jue didn't move while looking at his hand holding the empty outer robe. He appeared as if he wasn't bothered by the rejection. His eyebrows jumped while pondering a bit. He didn't think that in the world, there was a technique which involved taking off clothes.
"Hey, is there someone inside?"
"Stupid, there must be someone if there was sound. Someone yelled they were being molested."
"Hurry and kick open the door!"
The commotion outside grew bigger and bigger. Wei Wei then laughed more quietly, "Handsome guy, you should think clearly. If you waste time to catch me, you won't have time to put on your clothes. If you'd rather be exposed like this and allow people to check you out, then keep coming after me."
Baili Jia Jue's entire flank was hidden in the shadows. His hand which gripped a ladies robe slowly tightened up. So what she planned was this.
"It seems like you really don't want to let other people check out your body. Good, the two of us agree on this." Wei Wei opened the lock on the wood window while still not forgetting to say, "I'm busy, so I'll go first. This time, let's really not see you later, bye..."
Baili Jia Jue looked at her demonically. His voice was gloomy like a snake that had just emerged from the water, "You're really not afraid I'll kill you?"
"Oh yeah, I'll say one more thing. Seriously, your body really is not bad." Wei Wei looked back and whistled provocatively. Then, she threw herself out of the wood window!
What she didn't know was that behind her, a pair of dark, black, bottomless deep eyes had locked onto her slender and lanky back all along. Only when she disappeared into the boundless dark night did the man's exquisite mouth emit a demonically captivating laugh, but the the intent within that laugh did not reach his eyes. His pupils were as dark as the night, permeating a terrifying chilliness…..
The people outside of the bamboo stall used all their strength to slam against the wood door. Baili Jia Jue took a look at the ladies outer robe held in his hand. Within his eyes flashed a hidden light…..
Bang!
The people outside of the stall finally rushed in. When they finally got to see the scene inside the stall, their confusion couldn't be described with words.
The body of the classmate in front of their eyes, from head to toe, was covered with nothing besides the robe wrapped around his waist.
They could even see most of those enviable six packs…..murmur, gulp gulp, the people who came inside continuously swallowed their saliva, however…..that robe should be a woman's and even had flowers embroidered on it!
They didn't need to guess in order to realize what had happened here just now!
For example, a female s.e.x.u.a.l predator targeted an enticing hunk and thought up the idea of sneaking into the bathroom.
As for regarding how Baili Jia Jue reacted – – – – maybe he had refused to submit even onto death, and even yelled, "Help, molested, ahhh!" and so on?
In any case, those new students wracked their brains and started to guess nonstop…..
Nangong Lie, after having heard this, was totally stunned for half a minute, then laughed loudly, "Ha ha, you got, ha ha, you were targeted by someone?"
Baili Jia Jue raised his head and slowly looked at him while he grabbed and threw down the robe wrapped around his waist...
"Hey, hey, hey, you should calm down!" Nangong Lie immediately stood a bit farther away, "I don't lean towards that kind of love. However, did you really yell 'help, molested'?"
&n
bsp; Baili Jia Jue arrogantly turned his thin lips down, the light in his eyes was totally cold, "What do you think?"
Nangong Lie rubbed his nose a bit. Of course he wouldn't believe that this guy would yell something like being molested. However.…..his narrow and long eyes turned, his nosy curiosity was welling up, "What's up with the ladies robe?"
Baili Jia Jue's eyes paused, indifferently lifted his hand and buttoned up the meticulously crafted buttons one by one.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Nangong LIe immediately thought of something, "Could it again be.…..that 'little kitten'?"
Chapter 27 - His Highness Attacked
Having heard that, the side of Baili Jia Jue's apathetic face suddenly curved into a crescent, however his pair of notably ice cold eyes were deprived of the slightest bit of warmth.
"It was really her!" Nangong Lie laughed while rubbing his chin. He turned and looked at Baili Jia Jue's reclining figure and meaningfully said, "From now on, you surely won't forgive her. However, your situation at the academy right now is not great. Those lads living at the Superior Compound see you as a thorn in their eyes."
"They can think whatever they want." Faced with this provocative news, Baili Jia Jue only coldly said a few words to Nangong Lie. His fingers slightly curled, like he thought of something. His pair of eyes quickly changed to become incomparably deep.
That 'little thing', contrary to expectations, was not as he imagined.
That kind of tenderness, that kind of softness, unexpectedly made him feel an excitement that he'd never experienced before…..
Nangong Lie knew that he had never placed those lads in his eyes. From the moment he'd started to know that guy, he'd already known that he's even more wildly arrogant than what his outward appearance portrayed.
As long as Baili Jia Jue wanted, the entire government would bring him clouds and rain to place in the palm of his hand…..
Let alone those few young lords from influential families who'd just entered the academy. If only those new students would open their eyes to look closely at what kind of man he really was. They absolutely must not stupidly turn and bump into his lips!
