The secretary had been waiting for a chance to go in and listen to what was going on. Now that she was instructed by Baili Jia Jue, without a word, she took a MacBook Air and entered the president's office.
About 30 seconds later, she came out of the office with an extraordinary facial expression. In the end, she could not bear it anymore and immediately cried out in the group, "So gentle! You guys haven't seen President Jue. He is so soft and gentle that it breaks my heart! When I went in just now, he was holding a glass of water to feed the girl. Amid that, he even told her to drink slowly, otherwise she would get choked on water. Do you believe this is what President Jue would say?"
"Can't believe it!"
"I can't believe it either!"
"Me too!"
"Who is that girl?"
"Hey! Are you a newbie? Why aren't you updated? We already mentioned that she is President Jue's little sister. She is so adorable. A pretty little girl who wears a kasaya with prayer beads in her hand, so cute!"
"Since when did I have an aunt?"
"..."
Wait a minute, this reply was not right!!
Secretary Liu quickly opened one of the profile pictures in the WeChat group to have a look. She was completely stupefied, "Little, Little President!" Since when was he hiding in the chat group!!!
Chapter 1029 - His Highness’ Thoughts
In the villa, Baili Shangye brought a small stool for Little Qingchen to sit on it. At first, he was holding onto the showerhead while giving his younger brother a nice hair wash.
After seeing the news in the chat group, Baili Shangye paused and the corner of his mouth lifted in a playful and cunning way...
Little Qingchen only felt water flowing into his ear, so he looked curiously toward Baili Shangye with his big, clear eyes, "Brother? Water is getting into my ear!"
Baili Shangye quickly came back to his senses, immediately grabbed a towel and wiped nervously.
Little Qingchen cackled, "It's fine, it's fine, brother. Why did you zone out just now?"
"I was reading the messages in the chat group." Baili Shangye said while scanning his mobile phone again.
Little Qingchen held his small hands together and peered, "What chat group?"
"The company's chat group, there is always a lot of gossip about our bad father." Baili Shangye leaned toward his little brother so he could have a better view.
Little Qingchen swiped his tiny finger on the screen and asked while his huge eyes looked up, "You have been hiding in the chat group for this?
"Of course, why else would I do that?" Baili Shangye replied with confidence, "We must always be careful of our father."
Little Qingchen was speechless. Brother, can't you just stop dissing our father?
Apparently the father dissing trait had already formed in Baili Shangye. In order to defame His Highness, he pointed at the phone screen with his tiny fingers, full of seriousness, "This aunt that appeared suddenly must be fake, I'll bring you to the company and reveal her true colors later."
"Okay." Little Qingchen always followed his elder brother around.
Baili Shangye thought he would definitely give his Imperial Father a sudden attack this time, but little did he know that long before this, Baili Jia Jue had already set up a tracking device on his little mobile phone to prevent him from taking action against himself.
Hence the whereabouts of the two little ones were immediately revealed the moment they departed.
Baili Jia Jue looked at the blinking, small red dot on his mobile phone and raised an eyebrow, then he changed his position in hugging Helian Wei Wei.
He did not seem anxious, instead, his lips were arched up in an evil curve.
Baili Jia Jue was comfortable, but Helian Wei Wei was troubled. Originally, she imagined the scene of working in the office to be like... With her lying on the sofa, eating ch.i.p.s, playing games or watching anime movies, His Highness would be working hard at his office table.
She could even occasionally look back to enjoy His Highness' handsomeness when working.
Having food to eat, anime and a handsome guy to watch, these were the most beautiful things in life ever.
However Helian Wei Wei never expected that none of these were happening!
As His Highness told her calm and composedly, his effectiveness would be hindered if she moved around. If he did not hold her, he could not focus on his work.
So Helian Wei Wei became His Highness' personal royal pillow for today.
Baili Jia Jue sat Helian Wei Wei on his l.a.p all the while. Since she had become smaller in size, she would not obstruct him from handling his business.
However, His Highness was clearly not satisfied with this. As his thin lips approached Helian Wei Wei's ear, he breathed, "Shangye and Qingchen are here, but I don't know why they are not coming up yet."
What Helian Wei Wei feared the most was letting their sons see her current state. She froze, then spoke calmly, "Let's go to another place."
For sure, he would not oppose. He even added, "If we go out now, we might meet them face to face at the main lobby. I tried just now, Secretary Liu's phone couldn't be reached, this means that Shangye and Qingchen already knew something, they might already be waiting for their prey at the main lobby."
Helian Wei Wei furrowed her pretty brows as she thought of this possibility too.
"So, let's not go to the main lobby." Looking slick in his suit, Baili Jia Jue stood up from his office chair and tidied his sleeves, "There's a tree outside the second floor, we'll go from there."
"Sure." Helian Wei Wei moved right away.
The duo did not take the president's private lift this time, instead, they took the normal lift which then stopped on the second floor.
The second floor was the planning department. When they saw Baili Jia Jue, every single person in the department was stunned.
The corporate planning manager thought something had happened, he stood up and stuttered, "President, President Jue."
Baili Jia Jue only gave him a 'continue working' hand sign before he strode over to the window. At once, he opened the unprotected window with his flawless movements which were as striking as flowing water.
The corporate planning manager had an initial thought that President Jue came to observe their work but felt stuffy, so he opened the window for better air ventilation.
After all, their president was a clean freak. Everything he could see must be white, except from himself, who always wore black.
Hence, the corporate planning manager even sniffed with his nose. After ensuring that there was no weird smell, he opened his mouth to ask.
Who knew that Baili Jia Jue's next move was to put one of his long legs on the window sill, supporting himself, and leaped lightly, jumping out of the window like he was shooting a movie.
This time, not only the corporate planning manager but the employees who were watching Baili Jia Jue were all dumbfounded.
What happened to President Jue!
Why did he jump from the building!
Although this was only the second floor, one would break his leg jumping down like that!
When they looked down from the window, they clearly witnessed a perfect landing. Even the curves on Baili Jia Jue's shirt were flung up in a single flick, so flawless that everybody could feel his handsome aura.
After Baili Jia Jue set foot on the ground, he shifted his collar and turned around, looking sheepishly at Helian Wei Wei, who was standing before the glass window.
Helian Wei Wei did not hesitate either, she held the window frame single-handedly and jumped toward Baili Jia Jue immediately.
Helian Wei Wei would never know what Baili Jia Jue was thinking at that moment.
In fact, ages ago, when Baili Jia Jue returned to Mountain Tenya as a God.
Helian Wei Wei was about the same size and just like this, she was standing above the Hall of Great Strength. Wearing a pure white kasaya, she did not have such an amazing spiritual aura and she seemed
to be hesitating whether to jump down.
Baili Jia Jue knew what caused the Senior Monk to punish her by grounding her and making her copy the scriptures.
However Phoenix hated to be locked up since young, so she would escape in every possible way.
Back then, Baili Jia Jue wanted to tell her to just jump, he would catch her from down here.
Chapter 1030 - Wei Wei’s Shop
That time, the True Buddha had not faced his tribulation yet.
Buddhism was fair in its rewards and punishments.
With a smile, Sakyamuni looked at Little Phoenix who was sitting above the roof, not knowing what to do, he raised his finger and created a Golden Lotus Protection Shield.
Little Phoenix sat on the Golden Lotus and came down from the roof. Without hesitation, she ran toward the True Buddha, not noticing his existence at all.
Everybody within the three realms knew.
That year, when Phoenix hatched within the Flames of Hell, it was Sakyamuni himself who set ten thousand beams of Light of Buddha onto Mountain Buzhou to bring Phoenix to Buddhism.
In other words, the first person Phoenix saw back then was Sakyamuni.
The way she treated Sakyamuni was like a little bird that just broke out of its shell and regarded the first person as its closest friend.
Or else, Phoenix would not have cleared all the obstacles for Buddhism with her Phoenix scythe, just to repay his kindness.
Whenever Sakyamuni appeared, Phoenix's eyes would be on him.
Even though Baili Jia Jue knew it was not love.
He could not stop asking himself why it was not himself in her clear, bright eyes.
Maybe since then, the devil was planted in his heart.
Yet, he understood what her identity was, at that moment, he might not have had her.
Like what the King of Hell said, Baili Jia Jue was a man with deep thoughts.
Since young, he was like this.
His nobility and solemnity were no pretenses.
Albeit, those calculations in his mind were also real.
That was why he waited for an opportunity at the Three Heavenly Realms.
An opportunity to make all of the woman his, from her body to her heart.
Now that Wei Wei had returned to her younger appearance, she was truly reborn from hell.
Just like how she was hatched from her shell that year.
This was the fundamental reason why Baili Jia Jue liked it so much when he saw the small-sized Helian Wei Wei.
The person had dropped from a high place and right now, there was only him in her eyes.
That feeling was beyond description.
Baili Jia Jue put on a bright smile that he never showed before and caught her with his hands extended, even his eyes turned into a beautiful gold.
Helian Wei Wei always thought he was carrying her like carrying a pet. However, their time was limited, so Helian Wei Wei did not struggle, letting him march forward with her in his arms.
As expected, Baili Shangye already sensed something fishy once there were some movements here. At first he thought after settling Secretary Liu, all he had to do was wait for his father to come down later, since he did not believe his father was someone who prioritized work. On top of that, it was a miracle that he came to the company this early, it must have something to do with the legendary Little Shami.
However, Baili Shangye never thought his Imperial Father who always refused to climb walls, would escape in such a styleless way.
Climbing windows?
It was totally against the aesthetics of demons.
Dodging an accident, Helian Wei Wei finally let out a sigh of relief. After reading some doc.u.ments about herself, she announced in the car, "From today onwards, I shall recite scriptures every day, because I need to grow back quickly."
The malevolent His Highness did not tell her that she would actually heal faster using the mythical water. His fingers slid along Phoenix's ankle-length hair, "Then we shall find a quieter place."
"Yes," Helian Wei Wei considered and said, "I'm different from other Buddhas, I can grow my Dharma fate by salvaging spirits or reforming evil spirits. I'll recite scriptures in the day and during the night, you'll follow me to the garage. It's been a while since we had any business, time to show up and take orders."
Baili Jia Jue raised his eyebrow, "Take orders?"
"Yes, the garage turns into an online convenience shop at night." Helian Wei Wei talked while logging into her Taobao account, her eyes squinted from smiling, "My shop is quite famous, you know."
Indeed.
However, the shop mentioned by Helian Wei Wei was deeply hidden.
Only people in need could ever find it.
Of course, there were clueless people who accidentally found the shop and browsed through it. They would often laugh, "What are all these?"
When cl.i.c.k.i.n.g into the morning page, they could buy normal items, such as car accessories and so on.
However, when you click into the night page, there would be loads of unusual items.
This Taobao shop was doing another kind of business other than selling car accessories.
This kind of business belonged to the service industry and it was slightly special when conducted.
Perhaps some had heard of a saying before, that ghosts and souls do exist in the world. However, among the diverse Six Paths, humans could not see them because they only had mortal eyes.
If you had just moved into a new house, but noticed that the bulb of the safety circuit was always on and off, and the television would be switched on automatically at night.
If you had regular nightmares and felt like a huge stone sitting on you when sleeping, but you could not move your fingers even when you wanted to open your eyes.
If any of your family or friends suddenly had a high fever and spoke nonsense, started eating with their hands and drinking obnoxiously, but the hospitals could not find out the cause of illness.
Then, you are welcomed to inquire at the shop, we will send our top professionals to solve the root cause for you.
Most of them would see this as a tactic by the Taobao shop to attract customers. Since there were so many people opening online shops nowadays, without some tricks or unique promotion plans, how could one keep their customers?
Nevertheless, they had no idea that it was all true.
Helian Wei Wei, too, had received many orders online. In the beginning, some of them were curious and wanted to fool Helian Wei Wei, but they were all dismissed by Helian Wei Wei. They were scared witless after being warned that tricking the shop owner would bring ghosts to their houses.
These pranks were normally responded with automatic replies. If they really wanted to look for Helian Wei Wei about their issues, they would tell their problems right away. If they had no troubles, most of them would retreat out of fear after reading this.
Of course, Helian Wei Wei charged differently. She would judge the ghost's ferocity according to the customer's description. Those that were harder to get rid of would have higher charges, whereas the ones that could be easily settled would be cheaper.
Today she needed a hostile ghost, better if it had killed many people and engulfed a lot of evil spirits, one that even the reaper could not handle.
The more resentful energy it possessed, the harder it could be captured by the netherworld. Without entering the netherworld, it would not be able to reincarnate.
It would be a great merit to expiate a hostile ghost like this, then her Dharma fate would increase accordingly...
Chapter 1031 - Yes, My Master
The garage was always quiet at night mainly because the boors had returned to their apartments.
Helian Wei Wei did not have to worry about being seen. She carried a cushion over and sat beside Baili Jia Jue. With her hands and legs folded into a meditation position, she mumbled the Buddhist scriptures away in her mouth.
Seeing the numerous Buddha feasts in Buddhism, Baili Jia Jue knew
exactly what she was doing.
However, it was proven that Little Phoenix was born to hate reciting scriptures.
After reciting for a while, she opened her eyes. She looked over and saw Baili Jia Jue falling asleep, so she ran to the bedroom, came back with a huge rug and covered it carefully on Baili Jia Jue.
Yet, the man was not asleep. With some force, he pulled her into his arms, soothed her hair and smiled, "Trying to ambush me?"
"Boss, I'm only eleven, how could I possibly do that?" Helian Wei Wei headbutted Baili Jia Jue's c.h.e.s.t.
Baili Jia Jue lightly laughed while holding her furry head, "Not attacking me? Then sleep, you can read those scriptures tomorrow."
"No, we must work today." Helian Wei Wei supported herself on Baili Jia Jue's body with her small arms. Her tiny face puffed and she mumbled, "I remember at back then in Mountain Tenya, if I recited scriptures properly for some time, I would grow somewhat taller. Why doesn't it work in the human world?"
Baili Jia Jue listened to Little Phoenix and laughed even more, "You're just reciting and not copying it, the effects will surely be weaker than in Buddhism."
"Is it so?" Helian Wei Wei was skeptical.
Baili Jia Jue replied without changing his expression, "If not, then what?"
"I don't know, I already forgot how I grew up back then." Helian Wei Wei was a well-behaved child then. Aside from hating being locked up, she had been behaving according to the teachings of Buddhism. After she got a little older, she would occasionally get into fights. Other than that, she really could not recall much of her growth. From what she remembered, it was similar to the little shamis, but it was different if she thought more of it, because she did not have to shave her hair. In the beginning, Little Phoenix even thought that she stood out too much and wanted to just cut her long hair off.
Still, Sakyamuni said she did not have to as a phoenix must have her feathers.
