Chapter 646: Punishment From His Highness
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Because he had inappropriate intentions,” Baili Jia Jue pushed Helian Wei Wei away with a flick of his fingers while watching her intently. Someone who was dared to look at his prey with such a stare deserved to die.
“What about the Murong Family?” Helian Wei Wei began to feel that he seemed to be annoyed by her more nowadays as he pushed her away when she was merely asking him questions.
Baili Jia Jue stared at her coldly. “What else do you think? Did you think I would spare his life when I know you once liked him? I am not that merciful.” There is no difference between murdering one or two people. Why not kill them all? That would save us from the trouble later on.
Helian Wei Wei was confused for a moment before smiling, “Oh, I see you are jealous! Is it because I’m too pretty for you to lose?” She rummaged around Little Seven, who was deep in slumber and took out a mirror. After looking into it from different angles, she nodded and said, “I do have to admit I am quite a beauty.”
“I agree that this face is indeed too pretty for your own good too,” Baili Jia Jue rested his face on his palm while reaching out the other to poke her cheek. “What say you if we destroy it, it would save us from a lot of trouble, won’t it?”
Helian Wei Wei’s hands froze instantly. She then began to lift her bowl and started eating meekly.
Halfway through eating, she could not resist asking again, “What about the Emperor? Were you planning to attack the Emperor with the shadow guards that you have been training all this while at the right timing?”
“No, if he hasn’t had his mind set on dealing with you and the Sky-swallowing Beast, I would not have ordered the shadow guards to surround the court,” Baili Jia Jue was just as elegant as always while he was eating. It was hard to relate him with any devilish actions.
However, Helian Wei Wei still found the situation rather weird, “Are you that patient? This doesn’t seem like your style at all.”
Baili Jia Jue fixed his gaze on her again. Slowly, he put down his chopsticks and lay an arm at the back of her chair. He leaned back and said arrogantly, “There’s no need to rush when facing someone who is going to breathe his last anyway.”
Helian Wei Wei thought to herself… no wonder. For once, she was speechless!
“Are you done eating?” Baili Jia Jue gestured toward her empty bowl with his chin lifted. With a wave of his hand, he summoned the servants and ordered them to carry Little Seven away.
Only then did Helian Wei Wei realize that she had finished her second bowl of rice unconsciously.
Since when did she become a big eater?
What’s more frustrating was, she was not even full yet!
I’m going to have another bowl. Helian Wei Wei told herself that she must stop after finis.h.i.+ng this bowl.
She did stop eating, but after dinner, she began craving for some pastries and oranges. She could not peel her oranges while selecting her pastries, so she asked His Highness to do it for her.
Baili Jia Jue tossed an orange toward her. What he meant was clear – she would have to do it herself.
Forget it, she never expected him to be gentle anyway. Although it was widely believed that the spouse of a bossy president would normally be much gentler, who would have thought that her other half was the arrogant and cold type?
As Helian Wei Wei was occupied with her thoughts, Helian Wei Wei lay sideways while peeling the orange. She was known to be lazy so if she could lie down, she would never be standing up. At the moment, she was lying nice and cozy on the furry Imperial n.o.ble Consort couch which was designed with delicate floral sculpture. She was wearing one of those traditional nightgowns with large and loose sleeves. When she lifted her arm, the sleeves would slip and reveal her fair and smooth arm. Combined with her usual temperament, she looked like a cat resting lazily that appeared rather alluring yet captivating.
Helian Wei Wei never realized how seductive her posture appeared to be and she was still mumbling, “The plum blossom cake is not as good as the osmanthus cake.”
Baili Jia Jue had already single-handedly unclasped his fur cape draped around his shoulders. He then tossed it to the servants who were holding trays of fruits at the side, “Dismiss yourself, I will take care of the rest.”
“Yes.” The servants lowered their eyes and retreated while facing him politely.
Helian Wei Wei did not mind at all. She much preferred this rather than having others watching her all the time. After eating the last piece of orange, she could not help but yawn. Before she could make a sound, Baili Jia Jue was already approaching her with the Mysterious Ice Iron Chain.
Helian Wei Wei’s hand froze in mid-air. Before she even managed to cover her mouth, she was already pushed down onto the soft furry layer by his arm.
There was a hint of a smile on his thin lips. “I wasn’t intending to tie you up, but from what you have said in the Palace of Heavenly Purity today, it seemed like you enjoy being tied up. As such, I would have no choice but to fulfill your wish then.”
Who in the world enjoys being tied up! “I didn’t mean that! Can’t you pretend that you have never heard that?” Helian Wei Wei replied as she tried to escape desperately.
Baili Jia Jue pressed down on her back waist and s.h.i.+fted her whole body to make her sit on his lap. His tone was nonchalant and casual as he said, “Nope, I am a petty and inhuman person. I am one who holds grudges and hard to appease.”
Why did he bring that up! Isn’t that in the past already! Helian Wei Wei thought to herself.
“Be good, don’t move.” Baili Jia Jue spoke softly behind her ears with his lips grazing her earlobe. “You will feel comfortable being tied up.”
Helian Wei Wei s.h.i.+vered. When she could feel the numb feeling spreading from her ears, Baili Jia Jue had already tied up her hands with the Mysterious Ice Iron Chain. After he was done, she had literally no time to think at all……
It seemed to happen in the blink of an eye!
Her nightgown was scooped up by him and she could feel his rough fingertips wandering around her skin.
Helian Wei Wei trembled involuntarily. She could not withstand a man’s approach with moves like his. She felt as though she was suffocating, her ears were burning hot and her mind was like a swirl of snowflakes. She had lost all sense of thought. The heat of the tall figure behind her was rising rapidly and she felt like she was melting in all those heat.
Baili Jia Jue let out a smile. He placed his lips on her reddened left ear and licked it with his flaming tongue. He then trailed downward slowly to her fair neck, biting softly or kissing deeply, leaving behind hickeys. The smell of his own sandalwood scent wafted into his nostrils. When he set his mind on it, he could make a woman feel exhilarated …
Helian Wei Wei did not move. The chain would ring if she did. The sound of the chain would only make the situation more alluring.
His nose was touching hers. There was a glimpse of a devilish smile on the tip of his eyebrows and his eyes. Not to mention the heat that was spreading from Baili Jia Jue palm which could definitely burn her skin.
His slender fingers started to trail upward, igniting electric sparks wherever he touched, until he stopped at the soft spot on her chest, and gently placing his whole palm on it!
Helian Wei Wei s.h.i.+vered. A wave of electricity shot through her and she moaned involuntarily while raising her hand to push him away, “Don’t–”
He grasped her hand and kissed her fragile neck. He sucked deeply while hugging her tightly with his other hand, holding her firmly into his chest. From somewhere below, Helian Wei Wei could feel something bulging pressing against her urgently…
