Baili Jia Jue furrowed his brows, “I reckon that you’re more long-winded as you get older.”
Fire Qilin replied in silence.
Who am I doing this for?
It’s all because of you, I have not been in a relations.h.i.+p before!
Ahh!
Love!
It is such a tormented little demon!
“But you were right about something. I’m too lenient and gentle this time,” Baili Jia Jue stood up from the couch as he spoke while his eyes were filled with iciness. His tall physique carried an unexplainable tenderness, but his eyes displayed complete a.s.sertiveness. “Regardlessly, it will always be right to seize it first.”
“Noted.” Fire Qilin lowered its head respectfully. The fiery red silhouette of the beast was faintly visible behind Baili Jia Jue…
The sunlight beamed on the earth.
In the attic of the Superior Compound, the Seventh Prince was sleeping on a wooden rope with a huge meat bun in his arms. When he was bored in his dream, he could take a few bites of it.
Helian Wei Wei sat by the window as she stretched her body. She rested her chin on her hand as she sank in her own thoughts.
Despite being physically exhausted, she was utterly sober. Her abdomen still hurt especially when her belly sagged every time she came out of the water.
“Woman, you’re physically weak at this moment. I suggest you stay beside the Third Prince for now. Think about it, you still have at least, erm… three more times, yeah, three more times left,” Yuan Ming said with a snicker.
Whitey transformed into a white cat as he took a lazy stroll. It said arrogantly, “What do you mean by three times?”
The devilish grin on Yuan Ming’s face grew wider, “Of course, I’m talking about Yab-Yum.”
“Yab-Yum?” Whitey was stunned before it turned to look at Helian Wei Wei with a frown.
Helian Wei Wei waved her hand, “I’ll figure out something when the time comes.”
“There are 16 days left,” Yuan Ming reminded her with a grin.
Calm and composed, Helian Wei Wei answered, “So, we need to solve all the problems within 16 days.” She picked up the invitation card that Tu Sufeng sent to her via a message-bearer. It was clearly written on the card that the third examination would be held in the academy. Then, all the new students would a.s.semble in the middle of the hall and learn to bind with their respective mythological beast.
After that, they would need to prepare themselves for the examination that would be conducted at any time.
No one knew what the content of the examination was about.
Helian Wei Wei kept the invitation card and looked at the sky outside the window, “It’s almost time. The students of the Superior Compound are on their way to the hall. Wake the Seventh Prince up, Whitey. We will pack and follow the others to the hall.”
“Sure,” Whitey answered with a cold tone. When it walked past Helian Wei Wei, it added, “The Battle Spirit Forces will not be able to finish things up so quickly. Watch out when you’re searching for the mythological beast. If anything happens, bite your finger to summon me.”
Helian Wei Wei acknowledged as she squinted. It seems like Whitey has sensed it too, that the White Academy is going to undergo changes…
The thunder rumbled!
And it resonated across the sky.
The huge raindrops repeatedly hit on the green tiles.
A man, who was holding an umbrella, stood under the dim light as if he was waiting for someone.
Yun Biluo, who was walking forward with the help of her maid, stopped in her tracks. She ordered the maid, “You take a stroll somewhere else.”
“Yes, Miss Yun,” The maid left the scene.
Yun Biluo walked forward. Seeing that there was no one around, she then knelt on one knee and greeted, “Young master.”
“Arise,” The man turned around. The sleeves of his clothes of superior quality were slightly rolled up. His long fingers were holding the umbrella as he studied her with his gaze. “It seems like the curse is working well on you.”
Yun Biluo’s body stiffened. “Yes.”
“So, are you not working earnestly on my instructions?” The man raised his head and threw a glimpse at her. On his lips, there was a devilish aura that clashed with his appearance, “Do you think that you are completely taken care of just because you have built rapport with the Murong Residence? You’re too naive, Biluo.”
His eyes focused as he spoke.
Yun Biluo writhed in agony as her sweat gradually wet her forehead, “I’ve never thought so. It is very difficult to deliver any news to the palace recently. The Retired Emperor is still around. That old man has always disfavored me. If he finds out that I’m still alive, he will definitely annihilate me right away.”
“Seemingly, you truly have no idea,” The man glanced at her nonchalantly.
Yun Biluo tried to subdue the pain, “What is this about?”
“Baili Jia Jue is currently in the White Academy,” The man gazed at the high-spirited crowd that was nearby.
Yun Biluo’s face was painted with shock, “He’s here? Why didn’t Hei Zhu tell me about that?”
“Of course an average death knight will not find out about it,” The man paused, then stared at her with a chilling gaze, “He will never be lenient to his subordinates who disobey him. If your sister doesn’t return by tonight, she will most probably have to face a terrifying consequence.” As he spoke, the man glanced at Yun BiLuo, “Go to him directly. You know better than me about what you should do. Every student will a.s.semble at the hall today. Then, you will definitely spot him.”
Upon finis.h.i.+ng his words, the man held the umbrella up. He straightened his back and stood still in a perfect posture. He put on a smile that concealed all the senses of menace and danger from before and walked into the heavy rain.
Yun Biluo tried to suppress the overwhelming excitement and anxiety.
Even her fingers were s.h.i.+vering.
Finally, we are going to meet.
Your Highness…
Yun Biluo moved forward. She was going to explain about the incident that happened years before.
Then, His Highness would definitely forgive her.
Of course, it would be understandable even if His Highness refused to forgive her.
After all, if it was not for her, the fire would never have happened.
It was possible for him to continue to snub her because of the incident back then.
All of these scenarios were within Yun Biluo’s expectations.
She did not mind facing any difficulties.
But, she was terrified by His Highness at that time.
It was as though she met the grim reaper who hailed from the underworld. He did not look like a human with the pair of beaming eyes and the blood on his face.
Her first reaction was to flee.
But, now she regretted her decision.
Being His Highness’ follower for many years, her clothing and food were much better than the other maids.
His Highness had never mistreated her although he was young and innocent back then.
However, not knowing why, His Highness noticed her unfriendliness and hostility toward the other maids.
He did not do anything to her. It was only natural for him to not punish her.
It was well known that the Third Prince was always biased toward her.
However, the prince forbade her from touching him.
Consequently, Yun Biluo was immensely upset.
It was as if she was never close to the prince even though she spent all her time with him.
Therefore, she began to feel dissatisfied.
She was older than him and she was more knowledgeable than him. After many years of waiting, she felt resentful to witness him marrying another woman.
Therefore, she immediately agreed when the four influential families came to her.
She had never expected the presence of the chemical powder in the medicine. She never had the intention to ruin him. She only wanted to own him desperately…
