Baili Jia Jue twisted the black jade ring on his little finger and made a giddy smile. "Who I'm going to kill next."
Helian Wei Wei thought to herself, … Are you sure that you are really taking a rest?
"Why? Are you scared?" Baili Jia Jue turned his good-looking face sideways and curved his thin lips slightly. No emotion could be seen from his dark and deep eyes.
Unconcerned, Helian Wei Wei stretched her body. "It's fine as long as you're not killing me. The point is, are you not tired? You're always thinking about killing, even when you're taking a rest?"
"Tired?" Baili Jia Jue let out a slight smile as he played with Helian Wei Wei's strands of hair with his finger. Her ink-black hair was tangled with his pale fingers, creating a great contrast. His fingers looked even paler while her hair looked even darker as they were intertwined together. With his low and gentle voice, it was a warm yet elusive spring night. "Not really, it's such an interesting game."
However, it got boring after a while.
His prey was far more interesting than that.
Therefore, he could not let her know how he would act when he was extremely brutal ...
"Everything is a game for you." Helian Wei Wei shook her head and yawned.
The two of them continued chatting and Helian Wei Wei fell asleep on the roof unintentionally.
The sky was barely lit up when she woke up. The night was cold and misty so both of them were close to each other to keep themselves warm.
It was perhaps because of the different environment, she was unsure of when she returned to her room. She guessed that it was Baili Jia Jue who carried her back to the room. Helian Wei Wei took a while for her brain to start operating before she realized that she was staring at a man's body.
Baili Jia Jue was not wearing any clothes. Besides… he was in extremely good shape!
His skin was delicate and fair, with clear smooth lines all over his body. He looked like an exquisite jade yet he also encompassed all the masculine features a man would have at the same time...
Helian Wei Wei was supposed to have an outbreak at night. Looking at him, her throat tightened as she shouted internally. Stop, stop looking!
However, her sight was out of her control and started to move downward.
His long black hair covered the surface of the bed like a waterfall and brushed past his waist lightly, revealing his perfect and attractive V-shaped abs. Not to mention, although he was covered by a blanket, his long and slim legs could be seen vividly...
Helian Wei Wei suppressed her impulse to sit on his body by taking a deep breath and wanted to get up.
However, he extended his arm and pressed her back onto the bed. He looked downward at her, his long black hair which fell like strands of clear water landed on her neck felt cool and soft, refreshing her mind. His lightly colored lips were as pretty as flower petals in the morning. The various colors within his eyes were mesmerizing…
Helian Wei Wei's breathing quickened. She could barely hold herself together while looking at his face from afar. As she was now really close to him, she felt like her body was getting unbearable!
Her heart was beating rapidly. Even the blood running in her veins was hot.
Also, why is he so near to me all of a sudden?
The next moment, Helian Wei Wei understood...
Chapter 407 - Love Needs Emotional Appeal
Baili Jia Jue did not raise his head. He placed light and rapid kisses on her fair neck as if he were savoring the sweetest cake.
Helian Wei Wei could not control her fingers and started trembling slightly from the waves of numbing warmth. However, she was aware that she should not be involved in intimate acts like this at that time. With a roll, she stood on the bed.
Baili Jia Jue raised his brow and looked at the girl in front of him. She was pure yet strong, she was staring at him gently with her clear eyes, making his heart shudder. Darkness emerged within Baili Jia Jue's eyes. He liked to talk to her.
But he liked to see her tremble more.
He could not help but d.e.s.i.r.e to get closer to her. He could not control himself and wanted to hold onto her tighter...
Heh.
I guess tonight will be the night.
He was curious to see how long she could hold it in.
Baili Jia Jue smiled lightly. The risen corners of his eyes and his slightly squinted eyes exposed his scheming d.e.s.i.r.e...
Helian Wei Wei stopped bothering Baili Jia Jue. All she wanted was to look for Heize to get the few maids who guarded after her to avoid any risk.
"I prepared everything for you." Heize's smile was meaningful, "But, are you sure that you want to go through it on your own?"
Helian Wei Wei hummed once and packed everything she would need.
Heize looked behind her, raised his brow and smiled lightly, "Someone might disapprove."
Bewildered, Helian Wei Wei raised her head.
An arm held her wrist and pulled her backward with force.
Baili Jia Jue was behind her, he said to Heize in a cold tone, "Stay away from her in the future. Otherwise, you're clear that I will have my ways to deal with you, especially your Little Green Plum."
Heize was speechless. D*mn it, that came out of nowhere!
Baili Jia Jue who pulled Helian Wei Wei away blocked her in a corner and supported himself with an arm against the wall. His gaze was slightly intense. "Come, tell me. Why are you always with Heize?"
"Just some matters." Helian Wei Wei stroked her hurting wrist, "I asked for his favor to look for a few maids. Tonight is the Full Moon night, I will need them."
Baili Jia Jue almost boiled from jealousy. He clenched his teeth. "You're carrying my mark with you. Yet, you're talking about Yab-Yum with another guy?"
"I'm just asking for his favor." Helian Wei Wei's words were clearly unconvincing, although she was unsure of the reason.
Baili Jia Jue squinted his eyes dangerously. How can she still have the guts to say this now?
Perhaps he did not express himself clearly enough?
"That, that's great."
He wanted to see when her dumb wits would understand him.
He had been treating her too well.
How could he forget that some people need to get hurt before they could understand how to reflect?
However, during lunchtime, two young girls were seen beside the Third Prince who usually had his meals in private.
Both the girls were really delicate and pretty. Perhaps they felt that the Third Prince was pretty friendly today as he smiled toward others when he walked in.
Therefore, they could not help themselves from talking to him. The secondary consort selection was starting soon after all.
Baili Jia Jue did not respond to them, but he did not chase them away either.
The girls thought that it was their chance. Both of their eyes were droopy and their cheeks were flushed.
Helian Wei Wei saw this scene when she entered. Baili Jia Jue was sitting opposite the two girls like he was the moon surrounded by stars.
She suppressed her uneasiness internally with force.
She accepted the bamboo chopsticks handed over by Heize and stuffed some rice into her mouth but she had no appetite.
However, she knew that she had to eat. Otherwise, how would she have the energy to hold out against the Full Moon night?
Heize propped his face with his hands on the table surface and looked at Helian Wei Wei's coldness meter rise dramatically with interest. He followed her gaze and found the Third Prince. He then realized that although the Third Prince was socializing with others calmly, his sight was always fixated on Helian Wei Wei...
Heize's thin lips raised to form a smile. Interesting… this is interesting.
However, he did not want to let Helian Wei Wei observe anything. The Third Prince's method was too sneaky.
He could not let Helian Wei Wei fall for his trick just like that.
Helian Wei Wei felt the need to calm herself. Af
ter finishing her meal, she took her self-made fishing rod and went to the hill at the back. She was preparing the fishing bait to lure the fish in the pond.
The Little Seventh Prince saw her and walked over with his two little legs, "Third Aunt, what are you doing?"
"I'm fishing." Helian Wei Wei pulled the fishing rod once, "That's weird, it has been almost an hour but I still haven't gotten any fish."
"Third Aunt, let me try." Little Seventh Prince looked as confident as a tiger.
Helian Wei Wei passed the fishing rod to him.
Not even a second later.
Helian Wei Wei looked at the fish as dark clouds covered her previously indolent face. One after another large-sized fish were thrown into the fish basket which was previously empty. They seemed to be shaking joyfully in the basket and their mouths opened and closed repetitively as if they were mocking her.
Tsk, what's there to be proud of?
Helian Wei Wei leaned over and looked at the big fish jumping around in the fish basket, the corners of her mouth rose slightly. "You fish are too shallow. You just can't be reserved when you see a good-looking boy. No wonder you became another person's meal." As she talked, she patted Little Seven's shoulder with a serious expression. "Not bad. You made good use of your seduction skills."
Little Seven was speechless.
Helian Wei Wei was rubbing her chin when she thought of something and smiled, "Little Seven, go get the two dynamites I made a few days ago."
There was a loud bang not long later.
Two dull explosion noises were heard near the hill behind the White Academy. Helian Wei Wei's few shadow guards appeared due to the noise. Taking in the strong smell of gunpowder, they looked over the pond and saw that fish were leaping off the water surface due to shock as if they met a devil.
The princess consort was looking at the pond with satisfaction as the Seventh Prince was looking at her with awe and respect!
Drops of cold sweat perspired on the shadow guards' foreheads. They simultaneously thought that their princess consort seemed to be in a bad mood today...
"In a bad mood?" Baili Jia Jue who was leaning on the shrubs listened to the reports by his servants and curved his thin lips. Then, he approached Helian Wei Wei who was already done packing the fish basket.
Of course, Helian Wei Wei knew that someone was following her. She paused her steps and took a glance at him, "Why is Your Highness not choosing your secondary consort but following me instead?"
"There's no secondary consort." Baili Jia Jue's tone was casual.
Helian Wei Wei smiled, "Weren't there two of them?"
"They came voluntarily." Baili Jia Jue sounded like he was laughing every time he talked, "So, someone has to hold tight or else her position will be snatched away…"
Chapter 408 - Do I Like Him?
"Then, let it be," Helian Wei Wei spoke in an unvarying and slow tone, "I've always hated to fight with others.
Baili Jia Jue stared at Helian Wei Wei before the grin on his face gradually disappeared. All of a sudden, his eyes burned with intense blasphemy as he grabbed Helian Wei Wei by her chin. He gently touched Helian Wei Wei's pale lips with his thumb and said, "Are you speaking your honest thoughts now?"
Shocked by Baili Jia Jue's action, Helian Wei Wei gulped.
Baili Jia Jue chuckled nonchalantly before he gently c.a.r.e.s.sed Helian Wei Wei's thin lips. Then, he held her hands and said, "Don't ever think about giving your place up."
Once again, Helian Wei Wei was reminded about how strong Baili Jia Jue's grip was. She felt as though her hands were cuffed and she was struggling to break free.
Baili Jia Jue asked, "Have you forgotten the things I've warned you about?"
Helian Wei Wei paused her action, "What?"
Baili Jia Jun grinned. Despite the rather beautiful smile, his eyes were carrying a hint of annoyance. He replied, "I'll cut off your hands if you ever lie to me."
"There's nothing you can do even if I'm not speaking my honest thoughts," Helian Wei Wei blurted out the truth instinctively, "Eventually, you'll marry many consorts and concubines." This was when she realized that she should not have said that.
After she recomposed herself, she wanted to leave the scene immediately, not wanting to see the man's possibly satisfied expression at all.
However, Baili Jia Jue was a step ahead. He pulled her toward him, lifted her chin and planted a kiss on her lips.
"That's… too much."
Noticing how embarrassed Helian Wei Wei was, Baili Jia Jue tasted Helian Wei Wei's soft tongue for the last time before he removed his lips from hers. Then, he kissed the corner of her red eyes as though he was trying to comfort her. He caringly c.a.r.e.s.sed her smooth palms as he slowly waited for Helian Wei Wei's breath to steady.
Helian Wei Wei felt a chill down her spine and could feel a tingling sensation all over her body. She felt somewhat ashamed by the fact that she was enjoying this moment.
Baili Jia Jue put on a devilish grin as he placed his forehead against hers. He stared at her with his deep eyes and asked, "So, do you want to tell me your true feelings now?"
Little Seven walked toward them, carrying a fishing rod on his back. He raised his head and stared right at the two of them. Then, his gaze landed on Helian Wei Wei and asked, "Third Aunt, what happened to your cheeks? Why are they so red?"
"It's because of the hot weather," Helian Wei Wei answered ambiguously while she furrowed her brows. Do I have to speak the truth now?
Baili Jia Jue knew that he should not be too controlling over Helian Wei Wei. He released his grip on her and threw a glance at his innocent and naive younger brother before he ordered his brother in an indifferent tone, "Look after your Third Aunt. Don't let her loiter around."
"Sure!" Little Seventh Prince was always confident that no one was more competent than him in completing the tasks.
However, Helian Wei Wei paid little attention to the conversation between the boys. She stared at Baili Jia Jue as he disappeared into the distance before she found herself a shaded place on the field and lay on the lawn. She chewed on the grass as she mulled over some philosophical questions.
Little Seventh Prince deemed himself as a responsible man. He did not trust his Third Aunt enough to leave her alone. Hence, he decided to give up his mealtime to stay with her and began to run around her with his fat and short legs.
Helian Wei Wei was puzzled about her relationship with Baili Jia Jue, not knowing how they had come to this state...
Initially, their plan was to help each other.
But, had their plan not gone a little too far?
Before this, all their kisses were done purposefully.
But, today...
Thinking about this, Helian Wei Wei unknowingly covered her mouth with her hand as her ears turned pink.
She could clearly feel the overwhelming affection when Baili Jia Jue's lips touched hers.
At this moment, Helian Wei Wei's heart was pounding so vigorously. As a result, her c.h.e.s.t felt sore and numb.
It was as though a door was opened to her. She began to see many scenes and details that she had before overlooked. She vividly recalled how he half-jokingly tricked her to sign the agreement while he stared at her with his eyes full of passion.
But, how do I feel about him?
Helian Wei Wei had never been involved in a romantic relationship in her past life.
All of a sudden, she was reminded of a specific moment.
The instant when he said that he liked her.
Helian Wei Wei's heart reacted before she could think. It was racing so hard, making her feel uncomfortable and her cheeks burn.
Hmm...
I've read something about this before.
There are signs when one has fallen for another person.
First of all, when one is reminded of his or her crush, one's heart will palpitate.
Next, one will never be able to resist a kiss from his or her crush.
During the k
iss, one will blush and their limbs will feel weak.
It seems like… all of these points are accurate.
She felt as though something had stung her heart. She felt a sense of numbness and itchiness in her c.h.e.s.t.
Helian Wei Wei rolled on the lawn with her hands covering her eyes.
Something seems… strange?
Helian Wei Wei panted gently as her heart thumped.
She covered her cheeks with her hand, hoping to reduce the heat. Yet, she realized that her entire body was scorching as though she was having a severe fever. Her eyes were brimming with tears out of discomfort.
A pain from unidentified origin overwhelmed her as it stung and pulled her arms at an irregular tempo.
"Woman, it's almost evening," Yuan Ming's voice echoed across the Fantasy Space.
Helian Wei Wei stood up as she tried to catch her breath. "I know what to do. From now on, both you and Whitey shall stay in the Fantasy Space and never show yourselves."
"Wait. I have something else to say. Do you really not want to consider…"
Yuan Ming failed to finish his sentence.
Helian Wei Wei mercilessly shut down the Fantasy Space. Then, she casually threw a piece of beef jerky at Little Seven and left him to play with himself.
After that, she beckoned the maids over and ordered them to guard around the area. Meanwhile, she walked toward the hot spring that was concealed by the fog.
However, Helian Wei Wei had underestimated the effect of Yab-Yum toward her body.
The sun had yet to set, but she was swamped by the feelings.
Helian Wei Wei soaked herself in the water even without removing her clothes. Her temperature had finally subsided a little.
Unbeknownst to her, His Highness had been following her.
"Do you want to make way for me? Or, do you want me to help myself?" Baili Jia Jue stared at the four maids with his cold eyes.
The maids exchanged gazes. They were extremely loyal to Helian Wei Wei.
Baili Jia Jue put on a faint grin before he summoned the Fire Qilin and ordered, "Block all of them, and you shall not follow me either. Do you understand?"
