Chapter 100: Towards Her…
Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud
The Superior Compound was only so big. It should’ve been very simple to catch anyone.
Not only that, Third Highness was even looking for two servant girls. Besides Helian Jiao Er, who was somewhat surprised, the remaining people were all in the dark regarding what was going on.
Right now, basically everyone at the Superior Compound had awoken. There were some girls from n.o.ble families who, for the sake of being able to see Baili Jia Jue, also draped on a cloak at the last moment and had their servant girls fetch an umbrella for them. They were standing by the side waiting and watching.
Helian Jiao Er looked at those two servant girls of hers. Her gaze was filled with contemplation.
At this time, why would Third Prince suddenly think of wanting to see her servant girls, could it be that…?
Helian Jiao Er considered and turned her head. She was just about to extend her hand and grab those two servant girls’ hair and take a good look at their appearance…
“Second Sister!”
Too bad this scene was disrupted by Helian Mei, who’d just arrived.
She carelessly and thoughtlessly came over. Within her voice was a flavor of delight in another person’s misfortune. “That s.l.u.t did something stupid again and made Third Prince go through such trouble to catch her.”
Helian Jiao Er looked at the surrounding imperial guards turning their gazes over in their direction, wis.h.i.+ng that she could take Helian Mei’s pair of lips and st.i.tch them up!
She didn’t want to say anything more to Helian Mei, in order to avoid also having her own value dragged down.
Sigh, how did she not realize it at all in the past. This sister of hers was so stupid. There were so many people at the scene, and she still brazenly called Helian Wei Wei a s.l.u.t. Was she afraid that other people wouldn’t know that she was uncultured, shesh.
These aristocratic young ladies at the Superior Compound were most disgusted with people who were loud and noisy and Helian Mei had been exactly just that. When they’d previously just entered the academy, she would tell everyone that this younger sister of hers was just still young and naive.
But having already experienced so many things, what sisters like them needed the most was precisely to start and establish their own relations.h.i.+p network, yet Helian Mei was still so clueless regarding their situation. She was simply incurable!
She must find father later and have a good discussion. They’ll settle it simply by having Helian Mei sent away from White Academy and avoid her making an exhibition of herself here!
Helian Mei also wasn’t someone who didn’t understand anything. Seeing that Helian Jiao Er didn’t even pay any attention to her right now, she clearly pulled a long face as she looked at her.
However, Helian Mei also didn’t dare to say anything while the smile that was on her face became rigidly fixed at the side of her mouth. Just like that, it was already as embarra.s.singly hard for her.
A large number of footsteps were arriving from the distance.
Helian Jiao Er maintained a bashful smiling expression as she faced Baili Jia Jue’s direction and looked over.
Baili Jia Jue didn’t even spare a glance at these two sisters, as he directed his gaze on the two servant girls. His gaze was disaffected and indifferent. Within the serenity was a feeling of oppression that was difficult to withstand.
Those two servant girls dropped their heads one after another and actually, between these girls, there was one who trembled abnormally severely, seemingly as if she’d done something shameful. Even her fingers were shaking.
Baili Jia Jue narrowed his eyes slightly. With a wave of his hand, the flower ornament she was wearing on her head fell down to the ground.
Looking at that person’s appearance again, it clearly wasn’t Wei Wei and it even more clearly wasn’t the person who’d always been at Helian Jiao Er’s side.
“You, who are you?” Helian Jiao Er pointed at this unfamiliar girl who’d unexpectedly posed as someone among them.
That young girl knocked on her head as she stammered. “Your, Your Highness. Please spare me. There, there was a person who’d just given me money and had me change clothes with her, so I, I just went ahead and changed them. I. I don’t know anything about it.”
Baili Jia Jue listened to the girl indifferently. The light in his eyes flashed slightly. “What clothes were you wearing previously?”
“A, a dress of green fabric.” The young girl was able to smell sandalwood from the man who was almost within reach and all thoughts drained from her head.
Baili Jia Jue didn’t make any noise at all this time. On the contrary, the corners of his mouth slowly pulled off a light smile. “Contrary to expectations, she actually bribed someone. Money, is it? Indeed is a useful thing.”
“Your Highness, how about having subordinate go look for a girl wearing a green dress right now?” Shadow took a step forward and also immediately increased his speed thereafter.
Baili Jia Jue curved his thin lips and straightened up his body little by little as he brushed away the thin layer of dust that was nonexistent on his clothing. “That’s not necessary. According to the way she worked, she absolutely wouldn’t leave any clues. If one is left behind, then that meant that she purposefully left it. Her current self is probably wearing clothing of just about any color, except for a dress made of green fabric.”
Standing amongst the servant boys, Wei Wei’s mind was silently cursing ‘f*ck’. This Third Prince truly was so difficult to contend with that it’s making her teeth sore.
Dear, was it really a good thing to be so smart?
Careful that you won’t be able to find a wife, ok, dear? !
That’s correct. Earlier on, Wei Wei had already disengaged and changed, turning into a little servant boy.
The same set of clothes, would not be worn by her for more than an hour.
That’d very possibly give the game away.
However, the biggest problem right now was that this was the last time she would be in disguise.
The more a person became dizzy, the more small mistakes or discrepancies she would expose. At that time, she’d still have to fall into Third Prince’s evil clutches.
That won’t do. She couldn’t continue like this anymore. She must leave the academy as quickly as possible.
However, walking on land to leave definitely won’t work.
Originally, she wasn’t going to cause such a big ruckus.
But Third Prince pursued so closely, so unwilling to let go, she could only deliver her finis.h.i.+ng blow.
“Yuan Ming.” Wei Wei lowered her voice, her tone was level. “Have Little White bring more spirit beasts over. Doesn’t Third Prince want to show that he has more people? Then let us compare for him to see.”
Yuan Ming had never been as excited as he was today. As a demon whose activities depended on his contracted master, the stronger his contracted master transmitted a feeling of aggression, the more his blood boiled.
However…
“Girl, I’ve very rarely seen you so riled up.”
Wei Wei chuckled ‘hehe’. “You’re not tense? If you’re not tense, then just try going up against Third Prince and see. You’ll be played to death by him minute by minute.”
Yuan Ming acknowledged this point. After so many rounds, his brain was already insufficient to meet demands, yet that guy was still as before, a face that had them completely within his grasps, the appearance of having power within his hands.
He already hadn’t seen this kind of person for a very long time. Apart from…that person from a very, very long time ago.
However, it’s impossible for that person to appear here. At this time, he shouldn’t have regained consciousness.
Yuan Ming restrained his thoughts. His figure flashed and conveniently concealed itself within the boundless dim light of night…
Wei Wei, in order to conform with her current ident.i.ty, also made a move. Her fingers pushed at the umbrella handle to open it and held the umbrella on behalf of a young lord.
She couldn’t help but admit that she was very lucky.
If it wasn’t raining, giving her an object for shelter like an umbrella, it would’ve been much easier for Baili Jia Jue to seek her out…
But what she couldn’t antic.i.p.ate were Baili Jia Jue’s next series of words, which unexpectedly were, “Completely lay down all of the umbrellas in your hands.”
What?
Wei Wei’s heart became sluggish from being stunned, and she had to make every effort to have herself calm down, maintaining her body’s recent movements.
Immediately following that, she plainly heard Eunuch Sun cry out in alarm. “Don’t. Your Highness, this rain is too big, if the umbrellas don’t stay up, your health…”
Wei Wei was dazed. In order to be able to catch her, he surprisingly didn’t even want to have his umbrellas propped up.
It looks like this time, Third Prince truly wanted to finish the game!
Even all of the imperial guards felt the chill. It wouldn’t do for them not to open their umbrellas.
He…
Wei Wei gnashed her teeth. Just wait until she escaped this calamity and returned from the Armament Conference. She must definitely find an opportunity to clarify with Third Prince. What in the world was it and how big was the enmity between her and Third Prince that it was worth him going through such pains!
