  Helian Wei Wei was just getting ready to put in all her spirit to impress him.

  "So careless?" Baili Jia Jue raised his brows, a smile was brewing in his thin lips, looking at the person with such bad temper obediently huddling in his arms, his gaze deepened, soft strands of her loose hair was brushed away, revealing her slim and clean neckline, inviting one's desirability to brutally invade her as she seemed even more fragile.

  Helian Wei Wei shuddered a little, squinting her eyes while intending to withdraw her hand from Baili Jia Jue.

  Yet, using one hand, Baili Jia Jue decently held her right hand and dipped some ink.

  Whilst his other hand was committing all manners of evil...

  Helian Wei Wei bit her lip tightly, her breathing became irregular.

  It was really hot inside the carriage, she was not dressed as neatly as Baili Jia Jue. For the sake of comfiness throughout the journey, Helian Wei Wei was just wearing an oversized robe. The neckline of the robe was not small, but with the actions of Baili Jia Jue, two more buttons on the neckline were opened. Just by lowering his head, her fair-skinned softness would enter the sight of Baili Jia Jue.

  Baili Jia Jue's gaze suddenly deepened, with his thin lips slightly parted, he started to conquer.

  Just when Helian Wei Wei felt a sudden heat on her ear, the rubbing force of the hand became stronger, in the twinkling of an eye, an unspeakable tingling sensation spread from her ear to her tailbone!

  The robe on her body was rubbed out of shape.

  Pure nonsense.

  The way she saw it, he was definitely a wolf, worse still, an evil wolf who had been a vegetarian for decades!

  Helian Wei Wei felt that her whole body was getting strangely hot and numb, unaware that the corner of her peach blossom eyes was covered with power. Her sight seemed to be cast with a layer of mist, hence, undetected by the sight, her originally light-colored pupil became even mystified.

  Baili Jia Jue looked at her, his bottom was a little sore due to the heat, immediately putting the brush away, he pulled her into his arms.

  Helian Wei Wei knew her back had knocked into a c.h.e.s.t, she wanted to escape, but her hands and legs were confined by him, under the long legs across the material of the robe, array of heatwaves radiated in, she could even feel the breath of her counterpart penetrating into her pores while he breathed.

  Chapter 283 - Cooperation Between His Highness and Wei Wei

  "Why are you looking at me? Look at your brush."

  I could not believe he could still say these at this moment in time.

  Helian Wei Wei bit her thin lips as she sneered. With a backhand flip, she pinned him beneath her.

  She had originally planned to show Baili Jia Jue that she was not weak.

  She swore that it was not as she had intended!

  However…

  The door of the carriage opened...

  Eunuch Sun and Qing Zhan stood outside the carriage entrance, shocked at what they saw and gasped to themselves, "I-I never thought that Her Highness would be so wild."

  Wild?

  What?

  Helian Wei Wei glanced out from the carriage and turned her head to look at the position of her pinning Baili Jia Jue, this seemed a little bit intimate?

  Come back, Eunuch Sun!

  This was all a mistake!

  Helian Wei Wei wanted to get up but saw that the noble and handsome young man was smirking at her, with cunning eyes.

  At that moment, she knew that all of these had been planned by His Highness.

  He knew that they had already reached their destination, but let her pin him down on purpose!

  "Your Highness, won't you get tired of being manipulative every day?" Helian Wei Wei was lazy to argue with him and laid down in that position since Baili Jia Jue did not mind at all anyway.

  He reached out and held her, his fingers running through her hair, even though he could not see her face, he knew that she was yawning, and with a calm voice, he said, "So you should hide your claws, do not meet people that you are not supposed to meet, if I could not withstand it and break your claws, then you will be the one in pain."

  It was only a coincidence for him to find out she was meeting the Second Master Hei, and he kept on bringing up this incident to mock her. He was so domineering and vengeful, even though she only broke the agreement once. It was not easy for her to meet people as she needed to take a risk every time she did it. Of course, Helian Wei Wei was not that st*pid to voice out her own thoughts as it would only bring her more trouble. Hence, she burrowed her head into his embrace so their position seemed more natural and said, "Those are hands, not claws."

  She was not a dog, claws were just nonsense.

  "Meet me once a day when you are at the academy."

  "We are deskmates, not seeing each other would be quite hard isn't it?" Wei Wei raised her eyebrows in confusion.

  He released her slowly. "I meant at night."

  "You want me to use my identity as a Princess Consort to meet a male classmate every night?" She glanced at him and continued, "Do you want me to get expelled by the academy or would you like to annul our marriage by stating that I had broken either three out of seven marriage laws?"

  He straightened out his sleeves and said, "Shadow will be following you, nobody will notice."

  Helian Wei Wei thought for a moment and said, "I do not think this will be convenient." Was he not scared of revealing his identity?

  "Have it your way." Baili Jia Jue looked at her impassively, "It seems that it is definitely inconvenient to meet me instead of Second Master Hei."

  Helian Wei Wei stiffened, she knew that she could not make mistakes, if she did, she would be belittled by him!

  "We were talking about business."

  Baili Jia Jue finished straightening his clothes and cleared his throat, "I asked you to meet me as we are going to talk about business too, if not," he paused for a moment and continued, "What did you think it would be about?"

  She believed that… when facing His Highness that tended to not play by the rules, she would need to be level-headed.

  "I believe that we would talk about business too. What kind of business would Your Highness like to talk about?" Helian Wei Wei tightened her robes and looked astutely at him.

  Baili Jia Jue slowly voiced out two words, "Military firearms."

  Her eyes lit up. "Sure." She had always wanted to establish a military firearms unit, but if this was found and reported, the royal family would not forgive her.

  Now she could start planning since she cooperated with the Third Prince.

  However...

  "For a prince to illegally deal in firearms, aren't you afraid to be convicted of treason?" Isn't he scared? Especially when the state of affairs now is full of chaos.

  Baili Jia Jue calmly stated, "The royal family needs firearms to suppress other powers."

  Actually, the Retired Emperor and the Emperor allowed it. Helian Wei Wei understood even though Baili Jia Jue did not reveal much. In fact, this was a good opportunity to earn easy money.

  "When the time comes, tell me how many people you need," He paused for a moment and wrapped his arms around her, "Do suggest a name that is easy on the ears."

  "Huh?" Helian Wei Wei was slow to react, "What name?"

  Baili Jia Jue lowered his eyes to look at her, "The name of the firearms company."

  She was tasked with naming the company? She was not really into naming all this while...

  Helian Wei Wei opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Eunuch Sun's voice rang from outside the carriage, "Your Highness, it is almost dark, we would not get there in time if we do not ascend the mountain."

  After Eunuch Sun finished saying his words, he silently raised his head and thought in his heart. Since the Princess Consort is so wild, can His Highness even stand it? Should I order the royal kitchen to cook some tonic for His Highness?

  When Helian Wei Wei saw Eunuch Sun's gaze, she immediately knew what he was
thinking about and wanted to explain the scene he had just seen.

  However, Baili Jia Jue sent Eunuch Sun away, "Go and lead my horse here."

  "Yes, Your Highness." Eunuch Sun knew the meaning behind Baili Jia Jue's actions. As his master did not want to reveal his identity, another ordinary black horse was prepared, so Baili Jia Jue and Helian Wei Wei could part ways to ascend the mountain.

  Helian Wei Wei would use the horse carriage, as everybody knew that the Princess Consort would be returning to the academy. Hence, the horse carriage was necessary whereas on matters regarding the prince, no one knew except for them.

  Helian Wei Wei held her forehead in embarrassment. "Girl, it's not what you think it is."

  "I understand." Qing Zhan thought for a while and put down the teapot that she was using to pour tea for Wei Wei, and with a serious expression, she continued, "It is easy for one to lose self-control because of His Highness's look."

  Helian Wei Wei thought to herself. Lose? Self-control?

  "So, Prince Consort, you need to take care of him." Qing Zhan lowered her eyes, obviously hinting at something.

  Helian Wei Wei's lips twitched and smiled in amus.e.m.e.nt, but she gave no attention toward it. "I understand. Let's not talk about him, let's talk about you. Which academy would you like to go to?"

  "Me?" Qing Zhan was shocked, she always thought that she was only a maid to accompany the Princess Consort.

  Helian Wei Wei lazily answered her, "Well, you are an agent of His Highness, so your qualifications are eligible. I think you would be able to go to a Fine Compound, but you would need to be tested."

  Qing Zhan was happy as she heard the princess praised her. She then asked, "Which academy will your Royal Highness be in? Is it the Fine Compound?"

  Wei Wei lightly coughed and answered, "I am in the Inferior Compound."

  Qing Zhan thought to herself. How bad would the White Academy's worst student be?

  She even won the Martial Qi Competition.

  Qing Zhan felt that the Princess Consort was becoming more of a mystery.

  If it was the same as what Hei Zhu said, then when Elder Sister returns what about Her Highness's situation...

  Qing Zhan did not continue her trail of thoughts. She only hoped that the Princess Consort would become stronger, if she did, maybe she could win.

  Chapter 284 - Selling His Highness’ Portrait

  The night fell upon Murong Residence.

  "Changfeng, do you understand that your main goal is to protect Lady Yun's identity when you go back to the academy this time around?" The person speaking, was none other than Empress Murong.

  Murong Changfeng's gaze shifted slightly, "Rest assured, Aunt. I'm clear about everything."

  "Alright then." Empress Murong smiled, but in her eyes, you could see that she was plotting something. "My royal son is still too young, but that bastard's influence is getting stronger day by day. With Lady Yun as a restriction, it should be able to eliminate his right-hand man."

  Certainly, Murong Changfeng knew who this bastard was, but he did not really mind about all these, instead, he asked, "Aunty, so from what you said, this Lady Yun is enrolled into the academy already?"

  "Of course she has been accepted." Empress Murong lifted the teacup beside her, blew aside the tea leaves, and said, "This woman is not as simple as you think she is. She has reached the Gold League at a very young age, and above all, she forged a really good martial practice. Well, she ought to be outstanding since she was brought up alongside the bastard, and on top of that, the bastard was extraordinarily good to her. It was said that she is just a servant, but in actual she has led a much better life than most ladies in the Capital. To her, the White Academy's tests should be as easy as pie."

  Murong Changfeng muttered, "She even knows how to form martial arts…"

  "All the things that Helian Wei Wei is capable of doing, she is too." Empress Murong smirked maliciously. "She is good at what Helian Wei Wei is incapable of too. So, it's more than perfect to place her at the White Academy. The people in Helian's family have been so arrogant, they will soon lose everything that they've got. You don't have to worry, Changfeng. Aunt knows that the brat from Helian's family has embarrassed you many times before. I will definitely let them pay for everything!"

  Murong Changfeng did not say a word; he was a little distracted.

  But Empress Murong did not notice it at all. She was so into her thoughts that she could not help grinning, imagining that there would be good news for her very soon.

  The night wind grew stronger, but it was calm and peaceful at the hilltop.

  There were curfews in the academy, so as soon as it turned dark, the exit leading downhill would be closed.

  The White Academy had its reasons for being the most renowned academy for so many years; it was all because of its strict regulations.

  During the last semester, Helian Wei Wei had to do everything by herself. Now that she had help from Qing Zhan, her progress was way faster.

  The bathroom was still the same, but Helian Wei Wei already knew the way around the place so she would not get lost so easily anymore. Thinking back, there was where she ran into His Highness when he was showering, because she could not differentiate the male bathrooms from the female's.

  Remembering it now, His Highness' body was actually very fit. The charm that was so captivating, making it hard to find the second one in the world.

  Later in the future, she could draw a portrait of His Highness while he was sleeping, and then sell the drawing. It would cost a fortune.

  Huge profits with small capital.

  They had already married anyway.

  Whatever she did could be like what he said, as a means to adapt herself.

  Helian Wei Wei was in a good mood after she made up her mind. She took her nightgown and went into the bathroom. The way she undressed had an aura that spoke of her handsome look, it was probably because she was so used to being a secret agent. With a slight tug on the laces, her robe fell as she strolled, and finally rested in a pool on the ground.

  As the bamboo trees swayed in the wind, Helian Wei Wei soaked herself in the hot spring pool and recalled the scenes in her dream the other day. Her gaze deepened.

  All of a sudden her eyes widened, and it was as clear as crystal.

  It was because of nothing else, but Yuan Ming who was warning her using telepathy, "Someone is here!"

  Helian Wei Wei reached out her hand, and soon covered herself with a towel. With her slim, white legs, she stepped out of the hot spring pool, barefooted on the greenish stone floor. Holding onto an umbrella, she appeared as graceful as the queen.

  "Ah!" The girl who was about to enter shrieked as if she was totally unaware that someone was inside. The girl coughed, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know you're using the bathroom."

  Helian Wei Wei looked at her, and puckered her lips, "It's alright."

  Then, the girl lifted her head. Her face was as small as a palm, and she had an alluring scent. She also had bright eyes, and there was a ravishing look to them, making it hard to not stare at her.

  She had very fair skin, and long, knee-length black hair. She looked surreal and fragile, like a magnolia flower bud, so clean and innocent. Just by looking at her, one would have the d.e.s.i.r.e to embrace her and give her all the love.

  "I'll be waiting outside. I'll come in once you're dressed." The girl beamed and politely turned around to leave.

  Helian Wei Wei held the nightgown in her hands, and with a spin, the piece of cloth dr.a.p.ed around her.

  Yuan Ming teased, "This girl isn't so bad, her martial Qi value is pretty high, and she looked really innocent. Moreover, look at you, woman, don't you think that you need to be more gentle to me in the future?"

  "The way I'm treating you now have raised your concern, thinking if I'm in love with you. If I am ever gentle to you, haha, you'd better be worried that I might want to marry you." Helian Wei Wei responded nonchalantly as she retracted her gaze.

>   Yuan Ming scoffed, "You're just jealous of her. I can understand your feelings though, seeing someone who is more feminine than you, for certain you envy her."

  "So now you can even understand how a girl feels." With her slender fingers, Helian Wei Wei tightened her robe, and let out a wicked laugh, "Yuan Xiaoming, are you going to say 'we girls' next? I've known you for so long, but I didn't realize that you're a woman."

  After being made fun of by Helian Wei Wei, Yuan Ming's face turned somewhat red, yet he chuckled, "Actually if you just clean that black stain on your face, you will look prettier than her."

  "Thanks a lot, you judgemental freak." Helian Wei Wei gave the door a push and strode out. The girl was still out there, looking delicate even in the moonlight.

  The girl saw Helian Wei Wei coming out, and held out her hand, "Is this yours?"

  Helian Wei Wei peered at the sandalwood bead in the palm of the girl's hand, she had brought it along with her from the bedroom. She wanted to tie it around her neck as an insect repellent. That was why Baili Jiajue had tonnes of it in his bedroom.

  It probably fell off when she was taking off her clothes.

  Helian Wei Wei gave a faint smile. "Thanks."

  "You're welcome," the girl spoke softly. With her head up, she fixed her gaze at Helian Wei Wei. "There are some things that you ought to be careful not to lose them because once they're lost, it would be hard to get them back."

  Chapter 285 - The New Transfer Student

  "That girl is quite interesting," Yuan Ming's voice rang in her ears.

  Helian Wei Wei did not react when she heard the remark. She just smirked as she said, "There are still others even if it's gone."

  "That may be true, but there are certain things that cannot be replaced," The young lady said as her eyes dimmed.

  Helian Wei Wei did not continue the conversation. Instead, she placed the sandalwood beads back to their original position. After bidding farewell to the young lady, she disappeared into the night.
