Chapter 297: Yun Biluo Is Here Again
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
There was shock in Qing Zhan’s eyes. Then, slowly, she looked up with eyes like blazing torches and replied, “I will follow you, princess consort.”
Whoever it is we love, after a century, it will still end as a bundle of skeletons in this world.
“Then let’s go get some food,” said Helian Wei Wei. After a pause, she continued, “After dinner, I will introduce my junior to you. The only reason why you would fall for a guy like Nangong Lie is because you have met very few men.”
Qing Zhan was at a loss for words when she heard this statement.
Helian Wei Wei had always been one to treat her own people well. Previously, she was good to her cla.s.smate, and gave all the good food to them. Now, towards Qing Zhan, she ordered like the rich, with more than 10 dishes and a bowl of pork ribs soup.
She held her own bowl, sipping the soup and not eating any other dishes.
Qing Zhan felt a little sad as she looked at her plate filled with dishes and Helian Wei Wei’s thin wrists. She then scooped half a bowl of rice for Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei was always one who ate what was served to her, and would stuff food into her mouth, making her cheeks bloat like a little hamster. This image did not seem to match how she was usually portrayed.
The more Qing Zhan looked, the more she felt like her master was very cute. In the end, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Helian Wei Wei gave her a strange look and continued to fill her mouth with rice.
Still eating? Qing Zhan picked up her chopsticks and ate while smiling uncontrollably.
Helian Wei Wei was a person of her word. Right after she pushed aside her cutleries, she dismissed everyone and called for Chen Yifeng and the rest.
She did not purposely arrange for another meeting place, as the White Academy was also not a good place for both genders to meet in private. So, she got them to come over to the busy teahouse.
However, the teahouse seemed unusually crowded today.
When Helian Wei Wei and Qing Zhan reached, they saw Nangong Lie sitting opposite Yun Biluo. He was settled down and listening intently, unlike his usual self.
Qing Zhan stopped and subconsciously looked toward Helian Wei Wei.
But weirdly, the pain in her heart was much lesser at this moment.
Her only worry was that Young Master Lie would tell His Highness that her elder sister is still alive.
But…
“What a coincidence.” Before Qing Zhan could say anything, Yun Biluo had already seen them. She stood up slowly and said with a smile, “Qing Zhan, why didn’t you tell me that Ah Lie is here too.”
Ah Lie? Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows slightly. There is barely anyone who dares to call the Genius Wors.h.i.+pper that.
Yuan Ming naturally understood what she had in mind, “It seems like this person really has an important part in the Third Prince’s heart. Otherwise, someone like Nangong Lie would not have tolerated her.”
“It is not our business.” Helian Wei Wei replied with a smile upon her thin lips, “But, hearing her tone, she seems to have just known that Nangong Lie is also in the Academy. Yuan Ming, help me think of a good reason to convince the dean, we need to speed up now. With the a.s.sistance of Nangong Lie, Yun Biluo will soon find Tu Sufeng.”
Yuan Ming smiled malevolently, “I thought you are not anxious at all.”
“I am definitely not anxious.” Helian Wei Wei retained her smile, “But I have a strong desire to win. If I cannot get into the Battle Spirit Forces, then this seal that I have will be useless.”
Yuan Ming did not understand, “Why must you join the Battle Spirit Forces? If it is to find the hidden army, you can easily deploy your mercenaries to help you with the investigations.”
“Did you think that I did not do so?” Helian Wei Wei’s eyes narrowed, “It is because I’ve investigated, hence my decision to join the Battle Spirit Forces. I’ve always had the feeling that the Battle Spirit Forces is actually the hidden army.”
Yuan Ming furrowed his brows, “It is written in your third younger sister’s letter that both forces have different military tactics, how could they be the same?”
“Don’t you forget the strength of the Battle Spirit Forces.” Helian Wei Wei curved the corners of her lips upwards, “Their strength is disguising, and what is weird is that both forces have a similarity and that is that they are scared to be known. Why? Why would they worry about having others know of their good deeds? Besides protecting their members, the only other reason I can think of is that they are worried it will bring them trouble. As I’ve mentioned before, we have to think in their shoes. If I am to set up a new force just for the sake of protection, then it is quite a waste for the founder. Also, the hidden army appears to be owned by the Helian family, but when you think of it again, what kind of force would need the other party to acknowledge before taking over the other? This means that they do not own each other, but instead, are looking for an heir. So in accordance to my theory, this military seal that I have is my only chance to get nearer to the truth as compared to others. Once I get into the Battle Spirit Forces, then I can really get in touch with them, and the work that my mother did not finish will be done by me!”
Even Yuan Ming who was from the Magic Realm was impressed with Helian Wei Wei’s intelligence after hearing these.
In this world, girls who could make it to this stage were very minimal.
In reality, Qing Zhan did not know what to say when facing Yun Biluo.
Fortunately, someone from the other table stood up at this moment and waved to Helian Wei Wei’s entourage, “Boss, here, here!”
It was Chen Yifeng, with his bright smile and outgoing personality.
Helian Wei Wei nodded towards him. Normally at this time, they would have a jar of Chinese wine, but today they only had hot tea as they could not drink.
“This is Qing Zhan.” Helian Wei Wei was rather eminent with her juniors, “This is Chen Yifeng, General Chen’s son.”
This was Chen Yifeng’s first time meeting a female from the force. His father and ancestors were all generals, hence he would panic whenever he met a female. Once he is fl.u.s.tered, he would talk in his dialect, “Um, take a seat, take a seat!”
The guys that Qing Zhan met would never act this way, the warmth portrayed easily let down one’s guard. No wonder he can befriend the princess consort.
Helian Wei Wei placed one hand on the back of the chair and looked at both of them with a smile. She then asked Chen Yifeng, “How’s the martial practice that I gifted you previously?”
“Father and grandfather both praised me, also…” Chen Yifeng felt uneasy with a female’s existence. After all, this is not Boss, but a true woman, “The Retired Emperor promoted me.”
Helian Wei Wei had a sip of hot tea, “That’s good, Qing Zhan is younger than all of you, you can also see that she is rather thin. So next time, you should know what to do when I am not in the academy.”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, don’t worry, Boss!” Chen Yifeng was good in this sense, smiling brightly, “She is really too thin. I can never understand what girls are thinking, they keep feeling that they are fat. Leave her to me, I will definitely take good care of her!”
This was why Chen Yifeng was regarded as an uncouth guy, as any normal guy would not say such things.
Yet, he really uttered these.
Yun Biluo, who was at the other end, laughed, saying, “What is she doing? Getting younger sister Qing Zhan a husband?”
She looked over to Nangong Lie after saying this…
