  Chapter 206 - Wei Wei Gave His Highness

  "It can't be as bad as to form pus." Helian Wei Wei's thin lips curved a bit, helping him out of a predicament. "However, the beauty of that pair of hands belonging to His Highness indeed would be affected if it became scarred. I'll go take a look with Eunuch Sun."

  Eunuch Sun looked as if he'd seen his savior, his eyes shined, extended his hand while saying. "Eldest Miss, follow me in walking to this side." After saying this, he turned his head and instructed those young eunuchs. "You guys go ahead first, whoever dares to spread news of today's matter, needs to take care of your neck!"

  Wei Wei knew that this was to help prepare an escape for her. What was good at present was that Helian Jiao Er and the rest of the young girls already left. Otherwise, if they saw Wei Wei entering Third Prince's horse carriage, it'd bring much more trouble.

  Eunuch Sun's words were to help Wei Wei ward off these troubles, thereby also served to protect Wei Wei's purpose.

  After all, when a woman became jealous, what their poisonous hearts could scheme out were impossible to defend against.

  As Eunuch Sun led the way, he thought about reporting to Retired Emperor after this, yet at this time, Retired Emperor's horse carriage also was going to leave suddenly making him not know what's best to do.

  Wei Wei naturally noticed his restlessness and didn't mind it at all. "I can go there by myself. Eunuch Sun can go do what you need to."

  "I'll have to trouble Miss Helian then." Eunuch Sun turned his head to instruct a young eunuch, the hurriedly left in Retired Emperor's direction.

  The young eunuch probably hadn't accompanied Eunuch Sun for any length of time, didn't even look directly at Wei Wei's eyes and lowered his head nervously. "Miss Wei Wei, His Highness' horse carriage is over there."

  "Ok. I got it!" Wei Wei strolled over, yet at a place one meter away, she was stopped.

  It's also a young messenger eunuch who waited upon Baili Jia Jue throughout this journey. Seeing Wei Wei come, he didn't bother to be polite. "This young lady, look carefully, your carriage is over there, and certainly's not here, where His Highness is."

  Wei Wei knew that he's just doing what he should be doing, after all, if everyone could approach Third Prince's carriage, then that would indeed result in chaos.

  Just as Wei Wei was going to clarify her purpose in coming, she heard that young eunuch again mutter. "Did you really think Our Highness is easy to fawn on, it's enough that you used tricks in the temple, now, you even come to make an unprofitable exchange. Don't you know His Highness is most irritated with this."

  Unprofitable exchange?

  After Wei Wei heard these two words, she laughed coldly, extended her hand to grab his collar, her tone of voice not level. "I was asked by Eunuch Sun to come and apply medicine for His Highness, but it would seem, that it's not necessary."

  Her voice dropped, Wei Wei turned around and was going to leave.

  The young eunuch sneered extremely disapprovingly, even invited by Eunuch Sun, who's she fooling, what kind of beauty did she think she was.

  If it's Helian Jiao Er's kind with both family background and appearance, then it's about right to say these things.

  Looking at that face of hers, so unbecoming it made a person less than impressed. What's more, at the temple, His Highness was already thoroughly disgusted with this woman. He certainly didn't want her to approach.

  The young eunuch raised his chin up and was immensely pleased with himself.

  When he heard a voice transmit from the carriage, one devoid of any warmth whatsoever, it made his scalp feel numb. "If she were to leave, then use your head in exchange."

  That voice was very insipid, very soft yet even if it's like that, it scared the young eunuch to kneeling on the ground in a flash!

  "Third…...Third Prince, this servant..." The young eunuch trembled from head to foot.

  Yet Baili Jia Jue didn't even spare him a glance. "I actually don't know when Miss Helian made an unprofitable exchange with me. Could it be that no one ever told you, I very much don't like to be misunderstood?"

  "Servant, this servant...." The young eunuch only felt wronged, he was also only listening to those people say that His Highness loathed this love-struck fool, Helian Wei Wei. After all, His Highness had never allowed that girl to to meet him like this before, but looking at it now, they'd all incorrectly guessed His Highness' thoughts.

  Baili Jia Jue's voice didn't contain the slightest bit of undulation. "Shadow, take him away, cut his tongue out, tell these eunuchs, things they shouldn't say, they need to close their mouths properly for me and not talk drivel."

  "Yes!" Shadow used force and lifted the eunuch.

  That young eunuch already didn't dare to speak long ago, his lips unsightly pale and colourless, in the end, nothing good came to the one who's eager to harm others.

  Wei Wei stood to one side and watched calmly in silence. She didn't think that Third Prince would actually get angry.

  However, after careful consideration, his methods were indeed like this.

  Maybe it's because of his sort of bloody methods that the four great clans would act blindly without thinking.

  "Come up." The voice from within the carriage sounded again, although it's as apathetic as before, devoid of the murderous aura that came with the recent wind and snow.

  Wei Wei was still thinking of recent events and didn't react.

  When she heard him speak again. "It is possible that you want me to personally come down and carry you up here in my arms."

  Of course, Wei Wei was made somewhat speechless by this suggestion of his spoken without the least bit of feeling.

  Have His Highness carry her into the carriage?

  Even if Eunuch Sun put even more effort to help her conceal it, she's afraid before a couple of hours passed, every student at the academy would've learned of this news.

  Because that kind of scene truly would produce too strong of a reaction.

  Wei Wei even wondered if, at that point, she'd be shot to death by people's gazes.

  "It would seem that you truly want me to go carry you."

  Having heard this, Wei Wei quickly opened her mouth. "You stay there, don't move! I'll go on my own."

  "Don't you want to leave?"

  She didn't know if it's a misperception, but Wei Wei felt that these words from Third Prince felt a little bit lonely.

  Wei Wei's fingers lifting open the curtain to the carriage paused, until she truly entered the carriage did she know that she'd been mistaken.

  What she'd just felt to be loneliness, was completely because His Highness had just woken up, to the extent that his voice was somewhat hoarse.

  He seemed like his head still hadn't cleared of his dreams, his eyes half closed, dense eyebrows, jet-black eyelashes hung down.

  Long black spilled ink like hair flowed behind him, a pure white robe worn against his skin, it's just that the robe's collar was pulled open by him. The luxurious brocade was embroidered using silver threads, large blooms of various exquisite flowers, out of the ordinary, even the cuffs was pricked by several stems of lotuses, his entire body, from inside to outside, was elegant to the extreme.

  This Baili Jia Jue was less apathetic, less pure and holy, less reserved and noble than when he's before other people, but more indolent and fatally s.e.xy.

  He half reclined on the chair covered with fur set up inside the carriage, one long leg half bent, even when she came in, he didn't lift a lid…...

  Chapter 207 - Proud Highness

  Wei Wei also didn't need him to greet her as she rolled up his sleeves and leaned closer to him. "Which hand is injured?"

  Baili Jia Jue opened his pair of enchanting eyes, indifferently glanced at her, then spread out his left hand. Sure enough, there was an open wound on the hollow of his palm and even a bead of blood on top of it.

  If Eunuch Sun knew that there'd be a day when His Highness could be so cooperative, his eyeballs would totally fall ou
t!

  The shadows standing outside of the carriage also felt the same way and simultaneously let loose a breath, again feeling that it was inconceivable.

  In their memories, when has His Highness ever been so obedient?

  Seemed like the answer was never!

  He wouldn't even allow women to touch his finger, including that person from before.

  Yet ever since this young lady from the Helian family appeared, Master's habits were becoming more and more unpredictable.

  Thinking up to here, the shadows couldn't help but face the horse carriage's direction and took a quick look, the light in their eyes brimming with admiration for Wei Wei.

  Wei Wei didn't know at all how difficult Third Prince usually was, but just now, when they stood in the temple hall, she actually couldn't tell in the least that his hand was injured. It could clearly be seen that if Third Prince wanted to hide something, if he didn't want it, then no one would know.

  Wei Wei saw that the wound didn't look like it was caused by any sharp weapon, and instead, seem be be caused by His Highness holding something broken in his hand.

  Who in the world made him so angry?

  Wei Wei scanned the furnishings inside the horse carriage, yet didn't find any ointment, instead there's a handkerchief, but this kind of wound generally needed disinfection. What she's afraid of was that a shard might've lodged inside.

  Thinking this way, Wei Wei then stood up.

  She didn't expect that this kind of movement actually seemed to have ruffled the man's feathers, so that despite the wound in his hand, he directly grabbed her wrist, his eyes serene and hidden in depth like the cold night gazed at Wei Wei and spoke insipidly. "Where are you going?"

  The silhouette of the man wearing a silver mask aesthetically appeared otherworldly, beyond the reach of mortals, while the light colored thin lips gave people a kind of reserved and aloof and self-controlled feeling. At this moment, some gold embroidered clouds were added to the pure white clothes, making them appear even more noble and precious. Being looked at by him like this made Wei Wei feel like in his eyes, she was his entire world.

  Most probably, it was because she was used to Third Prince looking down on her ordinarily.

  Wei Wei told herself this, but she still felt that this appearance on Third Prince looked more charming. At least, he wasn't targeting her with his venomous tongue!

  Who knew that Baili Jia Jue's next statement would actually be: "Do you want to go out now and crash someone to death? Bumping into people even when you walk is really a rare sight."

  Helian Wei Wei: "........"

  Suddenly, without any warning, Baili Jia Jue used force and pulled her towards his own c.h.e.s.t, along with his movement, her white robe danced in an arc. He pinched her chin, then slowly raised it, eyes slightly cold. "In the future, stay a little farther from Hei Ze, understand?"

  "What's with Hei Ze?" Wei Wei frowned, subconsciously thought that what he's concerned about was the involvement of the four great clans, her eyes continued to lower as she said. "Don't worry, I know what I should do, even if we get along well, I still won't say anything that shouldn't be said. That's why, shouldn't Your Highness let go of your hand?"

  Wei Wei exerted her strength and used her skill to press on his wrist, lightly throwing it off. After that, she straightened out her clothes. "In the future, Your Highness should just say what you want to say. Don't need to move your hand, in order to avoid everybody misunderstanding that there's domestic violence in our future relationship, we need to be clear on this."

  With each sentence that she spoke, the man's pitch-black eyes became gloomier and gloomier until she finished her last sentence, those dark eyes already emitted shallow gold tips!

  Baili Jia Jue's gaze extremely slowly already withdrew from Wei Wei' body, after which he slowly responded. "Get along very well?"

  Wei Wei didn't understand why he'd concern himself with Hei Ze so much, he probably didn't want her be be involved with people from the four great clans in any way, after thinking about it, she responded. "Let's talk about him later, how about the ointment? Where is it? Didn't you put it in a wood box last time?"

  "I threw it away." His voice was as apathetic and slightly cold as before, speaking so self righteously and boldly.

  He threw all reason out for Wei Wei. She felt again that indeed it was Third Prince's style. No matter what he did, it all depended on what he felt at the time. Wei Wei almost wondered if he wanted to obtain the throne, would he also only need to take a stab at it to succeed.

  It's a pity, though, that Third Prince seemed to not be very interested in this title of Emperor at all.

  To be more precise, he's not interested, that's true, but he also wouldn't permit oher people to rob power belonging to the imperial family.

  That's why, encountering a prince like this, people from the four clans were truly both mentally and physically exhausted.

  Even if they wanted to rope him in, they had no way of doing so.

  When they wanted to deal with him, they again always ended up failing very miserably.

  Wei Wei shook her head and stretched out a finger to poke at the hollow of his palm, her attitude was awfully casual, as if he's any one of her junior partners she's worked with in the past. "This can't be left alone, I'll go ask them for medicine and needle."

  Baili Jia Jue looked at her and wouldn't let her stand up again, instead, he faced to the outside and instructed. "Prepare again a set of the thing I just threw away and bring it here."

  The timbre of his voice was very level, yet contained an attractive texture as well as the cold nobleness that couldn't be changed.

  Wei Wei thought to herself, no wonder all those young ladies in the capital wanted to marry him. This kind of man, indeed had the assets in all respects to captivate people. Fortunately, her willpower was quite strong, compared to beautiful men, she loved money even more.

  Most importantly, a beautiful man like Third Prince could not be bought with money, and was also too dangerous, so Wei Wei genuinely enjoyed him in a pure and simple way, and wouldn't have any other intention.

  Within a minute, the practiced and efficient shadows brought all the things Baili Jia Jue previously threw away and prepared them based on how they were before.

  The horse carriage slowly moved forward and when Wei Wei took the small box containing the ointment, she smelled a familiar scent. With her eyebrows raised, she quipped: "Don't tell me, you just threw away a box of Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus."

  Baili Jia Jue absent-mindedly replied with a 'mmm'.

  Wei Wei. "Boss, that's actually the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus." Not just any ordinary flower or grass.

  "Is there any difference?" Baili Jia Jue glanced at her, spoke in a level tone, without a trace of undulation.

  Wei Wei was dumbfounded. She'd always felt that she was a big spender. In her previous life, she spent a large amount of money to buy a cellar, all for a place to store her firearms, now that she compared herself to a certain Highness, she's simply a homebody who's a money saving expert.

  Casually throwing away Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus?

  Hehe.

  He might as well just throw away a trunk of silver to save money.

  The more Wei Wei interacted with a certain Highness, the more she discovered that Mr. Perfect was way above the common populace primarily in two ways, one was his deep and unmeasurable mind whose methods were powerful enough to control the winds and rain, and two, he's truly very wealthy.

  "You're so far away from me, how can you apply the medicine?"

  Chapter 208 - Two-Faced Highness

  Baili Jia Jue's slender fair fingers rested on the sandal wood low table. His gaze fell on Helian Wei Wei's body and his brows raised.

  Wei Wei felt that she was already near enough as this big horse carriage still didn't have much room, if she moved forward a little more, the two of them would undoubtedly touch.

  "It's easier to put on dress the wound if w
e are closer." Wei Wei leaned her face to one side, as she used the needle and dabbed a bit of the ointment made with the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. Without raising her head, she said, "It wouldn't be good if I offend His Highness later."

  He seemed to take a quick look at her and replied faintly. "There's nothing not good about it."

  "Hmm?" Wei Wei raised her brows and faced him directly. She even wondered if this man's mysophobia had been cured.

  When she heard him slowly say. "In any case, sooner or later, you'd still have to offend." When he said the word 'offend', don't know if it was deliberate or not, but he extended his hand to cross over Wei Wei, and let down the curtains behind her, his voice was neither soft nor heavy as it streaked across Wei Wei's ear, his breath struck her ear and made her feel a bit limp and numb.

  Wei Wei tilted her face downward, saw the man's pure and cold eyes, and shifted her position. This man was simply the evildoer of evildoers, whoever he wanted to bewitch someday, she reckoned it'd be very easy.

  Wei Wei raised her head and smiled as she moved forward and leaned a bit closer. She moved naturally as one hand held Baili Jia Jue's wrist and the other with the silver needle in hand. Bit by bit, she carefully pricked open the place where the shard sunk into. Her entire self gave people a kind of very comfortable feeling.

  Only that, she felt that the two of them were still too close to each other.

  She also didn't know if Third Prince had any objection to her touching his hand. From beginning to end, he looked down at her, the feeling of his presence was too intense, practically made Wei Wei crease her long, shapely eyebrows.

  However, this didn't affect Wei Wei's treatment of the wound at all, as her hands didn't even tremble a bit. She first picked out that shard from the hollow of his palm then immediately applied ointment before using the white handkerchief to bind and finish her work!

  "All done." Wei Wei stood up and was going to have the horse carriage stop, so she could go down.

  But Baili Jia Jue turned to the outside and instructed. "Go a bit faster towards the very front."
