Chapter 438: Deep-seated Adoration
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Eunuch Sun realized that he was wrong. His Highness was not mysophobic only when it happened to be the princess consort.
He’s still the same when it comes to them!
“Clean it up, don’t get the blood everywhere.” Baili Jia Jue stood outside the palace. He took out his white handkerchief and wiped his fingers as he gazed at the people bowing down on the floor. “Don’t let me hear the word ‘disastrous’ ever again.”
“Yes, yes…”
The legs of the eunuchs in-charge gave way out of fear.
They turned their gaze at Third Prince and saw a quick s.h.i.+ft of expression on his face. He curled his lips into a faint smile, obviously, it was because the princess consort was here.
They knew the rules and immediately dismissed themselves.
Helian Wei Wei’s lips jerked in annoyance. Is she really that ugly?
Why do they look as if they have encountered a ghost when they see her?
She had undoubtedly restored her appearance…
“What’s wrong with the eunuchs?” Helian Wei Wei asked the prince who was standing at the side.
Baili Jia Jue pulled her into his embrace and said in an indifferent tone, “I guess they are rus.h.i.+ng home to eat.”
Helian Wei Wei grumbled in her mind, Please, it’s such an obvious lie!
Baili Jia Jue smiled and kissed her forehead as she was squinting her eyes at him. He chuckled and said, “Let me carry you in, I think you’ll find today’s lunch very appetizing.”
“Okay.” Helian Wei Wei had always known how to enjoy life. She could still feel the exhaustion for staying up late last night. Besides, there was really nothing for her to do in the palace.
In all the novels she read, it was all about the chaos, messy fights, striking for favors and how it was far from being peaceful in the palace.
She even thought about showing her charisma as a bossy president occasionally to impress someone.
To her surprise, the palace was as peaceful as the villa she used to live in.
Basically, she had nothing to do every day.
All she had to do was enjoying her life, be it playing with the martial arts or handguns, teasing Eunuch Sun or watching Little Seven do a b.u.t.t dance. There was nothing as relaxing and tranquil as this life could offer her.
Of course… there were always people who were dense enough to mess up her life.
Helian Wei Wei looked at the paper in her hands, her thin lips curled upward sinisterly and said, “These two people have the audacity to hijack into the hidden army, let them taste blood first…”
“Yes,” the man in black replied with his gaze down.
Helian Wei Wei waved her hand, gesturing him to leave. Baili Jia Jue had finished was.h.i.+ng his hands when she lifted her eyes again.
The prince had to get his hands washed dozens of times in a day.
Anyway, thanks to his habit, she was able to vacate herself for her business in hand.
Otherwise, her daily routine would be rotating between eating and sleeping.
She was skeptical of the prince’s motive. Does he purposely fatten her up to the size of a little fatty piglet, so that one day he could slaughter her and use her as a soup base?
Baili Jia Jue heard her remark and smirked devilishly. “Even if I cook you up, you are not as tasty as you’re now. Stop overthinking, eat more.”
Why did she somehow have a feeling of being attacked again?
Helian Wei Wei felt exceptionally comfortable in Baili Jia Jue’s arms as she was getting used to it. He had been bringing her everywhere in his arms for the past two days, looking charmingly handsome and she was enjoying the service too.
However, in relation to the matter of feeding her, Baili Jia Jue had always treated her like a daughter.
You can’t have this, don’t eat too much of that, eat more fruits, and so on.
Most of the time, Helian Wei Wei would feel sleepy halfway while she was eating. She mumbled with a wide yawn, “I’m not full yet…”
Hugging Helian Wei Wei tightly, Baili Jia Jue murmured in a refres.h.i.+ng tone, “Go to sleep, I’ll have them prepare red bean pies for you later.”
Helian Wei Wei nodded her head and closed her eyes. “Pies are nice, I love them…”
Yes! I love to eat them too! Little Seventh Prince stood by their bedside and nodded enthusiastically.
Baili Jia Jue sat upright and took off his robe to cover on Helian Wei Wei who was fast asleep. He stared at Little Seven condescendingly and questioned, “What’s the matter?”
“Third Brother, I want to eat red bean pies too,” Little Seventh Prince pleaded with the vigor of the tiger for his welfare.
Baili Jia Jue b.u.t.toned up his s.h.i.+rt leisurely and said slowly, “If you’re still not going to tell me what’s your business, you won’t ever have your share in the pies.”
“Blackie, the one that I rescued a while ago, is gone.” The Blackie, that Little Seventh Prince mentioned, was a powerful and domineering magical beast that could flatten White Academy with a stomp.
Baili Jia Jue picked him up and put him on the wooden chair. “It’s healed, of course, it will head home.”
“But I haven’t fed him the dragon meat yet!” Little Seventh Prince lashed out, refusing to accept the fact. “I want to ride on it and go to the deep sea to hunt dragons!”
Baili Jia Jue glanced at him. “Think about dragon hunting only after both your teeth sprout up.”
Little Seventh Prince was losing his baby teeth recently. The gap was clearly visible when he smiled and it was a hilarious scene.
Even the servants found it funny when they saw it.
However, no one dared to mention it! Seriously! No one dared to mention it!
They were frightful that this little tiger would hop onto them and gnaw them if they upset him.
Despite being adorably cute when Little Seventh Prince was with the prince and princess consort, he was, in fact, a little guy with a poker face. He was harder to please than the prince himself!
Of course, they could absolutely bribe Seventh Prince with delicacies if he was upset and agitated.
However, being so straightforward about him losing teeth… they wondered how the Little Seventh Prince would react to that.
Eunuch Sun turned his sympathetic gaze at his little master and said in a comforting voice, “Seventh Prince, why don’t we go to the imperial kitchen to see if they have prepared the fish that you caught this morning? Don’t you crave for fish?
Little Seventh Prince looked up at the sky sadly. He pondered for a while and mumbled flatly, “Okay, let’s do that.” He doesn’t stand a chance to defeat Third Brother anyway!
“Let’s go then, Seventh Prince,” Eunuch Sun stretched out his hand as he spoke.
Little Seventh Prince reached out and held his hand. He asked in a serious and arrogant tone, “Eunuch Sun, in your opinion, does it affect my charm now that I have lost my teeth? Does it?”
Eunuch Sun lowered his gaze, looking at him speaking indistinctly though having one tooth missing. He swallowed his laughter with great effort and cleared his throat before saying, “No, it doesn’t.”
“You have a good taste,” Little Seventh Prince said as he heard the answer he wanted to hear. He restored his arrogant and pompous appearance, no one would dare to offend him wherever he went.
On the other hand, Helian Wei Wei was not sleeping well.
The ill.u.s.tration in her dream had become clearer. She could feel the wrath getting stronger and stronger each day.
That person wanted to come back.
However, it was unlikely that she would be willing to surrender the body even if that person returned.
Helian Wei Wei would not hesitate to return this body if it was before. But now, she shared her memories and yearning.
She was not sure whether she would meet someone like him ever again.
A man that looked indifferent and cold on the outside, but had deep-seated adoration for her…
