The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  However, Baili Jia Jue also didn't think that he really wanted to polish his little house pet's personality.

  Doing that also wouldn't make things interesting anymore, right?

  "Next time, when washing the handkerchief, look a bit and wait until there's no wind before hanging it out to dry." Baili Jia Jue levelly glanced at Wei Wei and spoke as if the words were true. "If it weren't for Eunuch Sun picking up this handkerchief, don't even think about keeping that head of yours." Taking the gift he gave her, then turning around to sell it to someone else, this was also something that only she'd do!

  Wei Wei standing at the side was also quite puzzled and extended her hand to scratch her head. Could it be that after she sold it, this handkerchief really got blown by the wind? And then was finally picked up by Eunuch Sun?

  If it's like that, then it also wasn't very strange that she got caught.

  Oh man, it was all because of bad luck and weather!

  Why'd His Highness have to be gay, jeez, she really couldn't compare to a homos.e.x.u.a.l.

  Thinking this way, Wei Wei's heart regained much of its equilibrium as she lifted her head and smiled. "What your Highness said is right. Fortunately, Eunuch Sun picked it up."

  Eunuch Sun: ...

  How come he couldn't remember having picked up some handkerchief!

  Compared to His Highness, how could this oldest miss of the Helian family tell lies with even less of a red face and shaky heart!

  Wait wait, His Highness just smiled?

  Third Prince left. The remaining people naturally also stood up immediately afterwards.

  When she passed by Wei Wei's side, Helian Jiao Er spoke in hushed tones, her voice brimming with spite, "Helian Wei Wei, I advise you to best be well-behaved. Don't think about things you shouldn't. Otherwise, I won't only have people drive you out of the clan, and can even make you have absolutely nothing left!"

  Facing Helian Jiao Er like this, Wei Wei only smiled mockingly and didn't even look up at all.

  Helian Jiao Er gnashed her teeth when she saw, but didn't say anything more, because they were in front of people. She absolutely could not expose any expression that was contrary to her own image, and quickly put on a gentle smiling expression while softly saying, "Oldest Sister, even though you no longer are a member of the Helian family, we're still sisters. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come find me at any time."

  These words of Helian Jiao Er were certainly spoken for Baili Jia Jue to hear. Everybody knew that Third Prince liked women who were sincere and generous.

  Her saying this would at least leave Third Prince with a good impression.

  As expected.

  Baili Jia Jue, after hearing her words, slightly looked up and glanced over towards her.

  Helian Jiao Er smiled even more, and her beautiful water like eyes rose to meet his...

  Baili Jia Jue only stood still for few seconds before indifferently moving his gaze away. His sleeves fluttered, still carrying the fragrance belonging to him. The scent of his body was indeed very fragrant, having the power to bewitch people's minds.

  Even though she'd smelled it many times in Spirit Forest, Wei Wei also couldn't help thinking that this really was a man who easily moved the hearts of young girls.

  However, these young girls did not include her at all. That's why when Helian Jiao Er faced her with a complacent look, she didn't take it as anything worth noting.

  Contrary to what one might expect, Hei Ze, who didn't say anything from start to finish, carried a dense****aura as he came over. When he brushed past her briefly, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

  Wei Wei's expression didn't change as she fondled the white cat on her shoulder. It's as if she wasn't familiar with the second master of the Hei family.

  "Ah. It's getting more and more interesting."

  Hei Ze's incomprehensible words made other fellow students turn and glance towards him, "What's getting more and more interesting?"

  "Nothing." Hei Ze couldn't take his eyes off her as he walked ahead. His smile continually remained at the corners of his mouth and didn't subside.

  In front of others, he needed to pretend they didn't know each other. This was their original agreement.

  But he didn't anticipate that Wei Wei really could accomplish it.

  One needed to know that if another young girl was in her place, she would've already seized the opportunity to climb into his bed early on.

  Contrary to expectations, this Wei Wei was totally different from the rumours.

  Maybe...she really was too obsessed with that lord from Murong Prince's Mansion?

  Ah, his Hei family wasn't inferior to Murong Prince's Mansion right?

  Hei Ze slowly narrowed his brown eyes. If it weren't for her face being so dark that he really couldn't stand it, he probably would've been inspired to send betrothal gifts to the Helian family already.

  Hey, wait another minute. If his old father insisted on wanting a daughter-in-law, then he could still just choose her, not noisy, not quarrelsome, and even knew how to make money. Embracing her ought to feel about right.

  Maybe he could first divulge his thoughts to let his old man know. Hm, let's decide on that then.

  Wonder what kind of expression fellow students at the academy and that girl would have after they heard this news.

  Heh, he didn't care much about the former's reaction. As for the latter... he was very interested in her response.

  Chapter 84 - His Highness Was Jealous

  It didn't even take a day for the news that the Hei family's second young master wanted to marry Helian Wei Wei to spread throughout the entire White Academy.

  Reportedly, when Elder Hei heard Hei family's second young master raise this kind of notion, he was so angry that he almost banished his most beloved grandson from the clan.

  How could a descendant of the grand Hei family marry an infamous good-for-nothing.

  This simply was a joke.

  "Your Highness, you don't know it, but this academy's started to get noisy." While Eunuch Sun was recounting the rumors he heard, he was shaking his head. "What do you think? What ability could that miss from the Helian family possibly have, with such swarthy looks, that Master Hei would take a fancy to her?"

  Clang!

  The black chess piece rang sharply as it fell on the chessboard, Baili Jia Jue flicked his sleeve and stood up, his tall and straight back was as straight as a pine, so emotionless and detached it made people to feel not the slightest warmth from it.

  Eunuch Sun was flabbergasted. The hand pouring tea froze in mid air. Just now, His Highness became...angry?

  Why?

  Eunuch Sun started to backtrack to find what he did wrong. Could it be because he accepted the Superior Compound's invitation without permission?

  Mm, couldn't be. His Highness clearly also agreed to go.

  Then what else was there?

  Eunuch Sun wracked his brains, but he still couldn't figure out where the problem was. While the carefree and leisurely Nangong Lie wickedly laughed, "Somebody unexpectedly didn't have his eyes open and touched the house pet he most recently was interested in. Ah, I really want to wrap it up quickly and go see what he's going to do."

  "High Priest, who are you referring to?" The Eunuch was puzzled as he looked at the reigning divination genius and slightly raised his eyebrows, "Is finding him going to resolve the drought this time?"

  Nangong Lie coughed fiercely twice as he recalled that he was in the middle of divining a prophecy. He waved him off in a wide arc and continued to mutter to himself.

  -At the Inferior Compound-

  Every one of the surrounding students was gazing pensively at her as they whispered and gestured.

  They also didn't know why whenever they faced this good-for-nothing's gaze, they'd subconsciously feel scared.

  Actually, Wei Wei really didn't have any intent other than wanting to know what this group of people were up to. They were abnormally excited today.r />
  Yet, before she even opened her mouth to ask, a messenger came to say that Third Prince wanted to use his handkerchief, the one that was blown away by the wind should've been washed already.

  People with OCD get attached to some of their personal belongings. Wei Wei understood this.

  That's why Wei Wei didn't sell the handkerchief this time, and after seriously washing it, she brought that handkerchief and followed Shadow to head for the Superior Compound.

  Indistinct sounds of bamboo drumming, green orioles (type of bird) chirping. The fog was rising; beneath the carved white jade arch bridge extended a pool of freshwater. Within this kind of weather, not only was there no ice cold chill dispersing, on the contrary, heat was steaming and curling up.

  No need to think about it, the mouth of a hot spring must be nearby.

  Third Prince indeed was someone who knew how to enjoy the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.es of life.

  "His Highness has entered the palace to accompany Retired Emperor for a drink earlier and is now still resting inside. Miss Helian, please eat some pastries first, I'll go and report your arrival." Shadow helped Wei Wei settle down on a decoratively carved hardwood chair in an outer room. Next to the chair was a wooden table. On top of the wooden table, all kinds of desserts and nuts were arranged exquisitely and invitingly, yet with no indication that they've been touched. There was even a purple ceramic pot placed next to the fruit plate. A lotus flower was carved on that pot. The workmanship was particularly exquisite. Under the teapot, was a small hot plate. The fire in the hot plate wasn't very big, just right for keeping the water boiling.

  Wei Wei happened to be hungry, so she picked up the pastries and ate them without reservation, yet she could still still hear the barely audible noises from inside.

  "Allow her to come in."

  That voice seemed to carry a mixture of sounds, even the hoarsely deep and low tones were s.e.xy to the extreme.

  "Yes. Your Highness."

  Shadow led Wei Wei inside. The faintly discernible dividing curtain outlined an aloof figure.

  "Come here." Baili Jia Jue was actually sitting on the floor, his body covered in a classically styled black nightgown. His clothes half exposed the long and wavy dark black hair flowing down messily along both sides.

  When Wei Wei entered, what she saw was that scene. The aloof and remote Third Prince really just sat on the brown floor, his back was leaning against the wooden bed, his two long legs casually bent up, his two arms resting on top of his knees. Even a somewhat powerful posture like this, when he was the one in this position, it also gave off a domineering gracefulness.

  After hearing the sound of movement, he turned towards her direction and took a glance. Within the long and narrow phoenix-shaped eyes, floated a hint of wine. His thin lips opened then closed, as if he was mulling over something.

  Out of the corner of his eyes, he glimpsed Wei Wei's puzzled expression. Baili Jia Jue smoothly took out a piece of unopened candy from within his gown and threw it at her while indifferently saying, "Go ahead and eat."

  However...

  As Wei Wei looked at the thing in the palm of her hand and looked again at the man pulling on his collar, she was absolutely certain that Third Prince was quite possibly drunk.

  No way. As reserved as he was, he absolutely wouldn't take snacks that he carried on himself and throw it to someone else to share with him.

  Baili Jia Jue saw that she didn't eat the thing he gave her. He apathetically, calmly, and slowly scanned her face and seemed like he'd identified her after moment, then said as if it was completely unrelated, "Don't call me Your Highness," paused, his tone carried a trace of annoyance, "Each and everyone of you address me this way. Have you guys been teaming up?"

  Wei Wei: ....

  He really was drunk.

  This...the drunk Highness was a bit too cute, OMG!

  Wei Wei impishly looked at him. "I'll help you get up first." Taking advantage of a moment when no one's around, she'll remove the silver mask from his face, and have a good look at what in the world he looked like.

  But she didn't expect to be brushed aside indifferently by Baili Jia Jue in the end. He rubbed and rubbed his forehead, appearing very guarded. "Go pour water." His voice carried a kind of slight hoarseness, resembling the finest cello's timbre flowing out as it's being played, a graceful, deep and profound texture.

  Truly deserved to be Third Prince. Even though he was drunk, he still wouldn't allow anyone to manipulate him, so much so that the innate leadership aura he emitted even became more and more distinct. The order he gave certainly was very clear.

  Pouring water was but an effortless and undemanding task. Wei Wei brought the cup over and stooped down to give it to him.

  Nevertheless, Baili Jia Jue didn't take it and only bent his head down low, long eyebrows furrowed fiercely, within the pitch-black phoenix eyes there originally was only deathly stillness, yet upon her attentive gaze, there emerged a bit of a devilish aura. Sizing her up in an indifferent, inquisitive manner, "Who are you, so obedient."

  Wei Wei:...

  She's been busy rushing there and here, yet he didn't even know who she was.

  Should she say of Third Prince, 'important people have short memories' (said with good-natured sarcasm), or should she say that he drank so much that he's lost his mind.

  No matter what it was, the handkerchief had already been delivered, the water had already been poured, so she also should leave already.

  It's just that, she didn't anticipate that as she was just about to get up, her wrist was pulled by the palm of his hand...

  Chapter 85 - Lips Were Injured

  This wasn't a concern for Third Prince. For him, it's merely the addition of a romantic affair that's all.

  She really didn't want to be expelled from school, because of this kind of dog sh*t!

  She quickly straightened her back and pushed herself away, Wei Wei stood up from the floor and guarded against looking at Baili Jia Jue's slightly cold gaze.

  "What? Could it be that what I said was wrong?" Within Baili Jia Jue's voice was a distinct smiling expression making others unable to ignore it.

  Only then did Wei Wei discover that his drunk self was truly much more wickedly uninhibited compared to his former self and not by a small margin.

  However.

  Taking advantage of her and even criticizing her for being weak?

  Humph, really taking her for a vegetarian!

  "If it weren't for the fact that this tool of a body's stamina was too poor, did His Highness think I'd be inferior to you?" Wei Wei grabbed and tugged at Baili Jia Jue's collar, her little face was lowered and spoke ferociously. Calling her unrestrained would not be an overstatement.

  Baili Jia Jue obviously didn't like the way she phrased it. His long eyebrows faintly creased. This little fox's mouth still was really only suitable for kissing.

  He massaged his aching forehead, his voice clear and cold, "Don't worry, I'll take responsibility."

  What she was discussing with him wasn't about the problem of taking responsibility, or not taking responsibility at all, OK?! Besides, even if she were to get married, she wouldn't get married to a drunk who morphed into a wolf.

  "Who asked you to take responsibility?" Wei Wei answered in a cold voice and threw off the outer garment that was messed up by him. In this way, she could still appear a bit composed. Just now, that outer garment was tousled by him so much that anyone with a discerning eye could tell with a glance what happened.

  Baili Jia Jue only viewed her as someone who was angry. Regardless of whether a woman was intelligent or not, once their temper flared, they'd be irrational.

  The kiss had been kissed. Besides having him take responsibility. Could it be that she had a better solution?

  With the use of wine, even the Hei family was already settled and packed away by him.

  Such an obvious matter, why would this girl still be angry with him.

  Someone as high and noble as Third Pri
nce fundamentally didn't understand. From Wei Wei's perspective, being kissed by someone didn't mean that she must have the other party marry her. Even though her truly significant first kiss was stolen, and Wei Wei was both angry and upset in her heart, still, she wasn't a girl from the olden times. To her, reputation simply didn't count for anything.

  Besides, if a man liked a woman, the first sentiment that a man expressed should be his respect for her.

  It's obvious that Third Prince pondered mostly about her social status. What's more, he's even drunk.

  If it weren't for the fact that the timing's bad right now, she would've been inclined to cripple his pair of hands.

  "Your Highness." When Eunuch Sun came in what he saw was a scene of two people. One person was standing with her eyes burning in anger. The other cooly and nobly sitting down, his expression while looking at the other party seemed a bit...strange?

  Baili Jia Jue faintly 'mm'd a sound, as if he was still tormented by the wine. His nasal sound was a little heavy.

  Eunuch Sun cried, "Oh dear! Your Highness, how are you? My, could it be that you didn't know that your body can't tolerate alcohol? Is it that you've provoked Retired Emperor again somehow?"

  Eunuch Sun wasn't wrong in his guess. Baili Jia Jue indeed provoked Retired Emperor. It was because he made a request which caused Retired Emperor to be awfully angry that Retired Emperor then, in his anger, had his grandson, who he knew perfectly well couldn't hold his liquor...drink until he dropped.

  "Miss Wei Wei." Eunuch Sun cautiously and solemnly looked at Wei Wei's expression as he moved over closer and said softly. "His Highness didn't do anything to you? After he drinks wine, he'll always be especially strange." For example, he might wickedly request for people to get lost and shout again just to have them rush back in. In short...truly wasn't like how he normally was at all.
