Chapter 940 936
Actually, Helian Wei Wei roughly knew what was going on, but she did not take it seriously. To her, this was merely a unique way of interaction between father and son.
Although the way they communicated with each other was somewhat different…
“One, two, three, 10!” Inside the house, the little one was holding his head cooly and kicking hard as he performed the forward jump.
Looking at him languidly, Baili Jia Jue leaned against the door with his legs crossed, “You little imp, who taught you that 10 is after three? Baili Shangxie, are you challenging my intelligence?”
“I thought you’d be less harsh after you’ve found Imperial Mother.” Baili Shangxie hummed coldly. The way he talked mid-jump somehow made him look stylish and adorable at the same time.
Baili Jia Jue looked down and flipped through the doc.u.ments in his hands. He seemed unaffected by his son’s accusation. “Well, it turns out to be your illusion. And don’t think I have no idea what’s on your mind. This is considered a lenient punishment for you relative to what you’ve done, interrupting my plans and deprecating me all this while. Continue your jumps, you have 80 more to go.”
Baili Shangxie whined and went on holding his little head as he resumed his jumps.
Soon, ten minutes had pa.s.sed. It was only then did Baili Jia Jue put on his sungla.s.ses and take Baili Shangxie’s hand in his as he led him down for dinner.
Baili Shangxie found hand-holding to be rather intolerable.
Baili Jia Jue tossed him a flat look. “Do you want to let your Imperial Mother know that we are not getting along too well?”
You just always use Imperial Mother as an excuse to pressure me! Baili Shangxie was very disdainful about his Imperial Father’s shamelessness, but at the same time, he did not want to show anything bad in front of his Imperial Mother and brother. In fact, it was undeniable that this father-son duo was good at acting.
The food served at the inn was very delicious, which was highly recommended on the Internet. They were even considerate enough to prepare some barley tea for their customers.
Helian Wei Wei ordered a table of dishes and placed Little Qingchen on the soft seat.
Little Qingchen’s dining etiquette had always been quite good. Taking his own small bowl and chopsticks, he wore a white napkin in front of his clothes. He even took the initiative to set up his brother’s tableware when he saw Baili Shangxie approaching.
Baili Shangxie was not particularly fond of human food. Basically, he would not be eating any of these except for chocolate and ice cream.
Demons were slightly better than the Blood Tribe in the sense that they could still consume ordinary food, whereas the Blood Tribe could not ingest anything other than fresh blood. Apart from that, they were also susceptible to sunlight.
Baili Shangxie hated sunlight as well and it seemed like the same was true for his Imperial Father. There was a certain price to pay in order to travel through the s.p.a.ce-time gap. Imperial Father would especially suffer a greater loss since he was the one who tore the s.p.a.ce-time continuum open.
Nevertheless, Imperial Father had never told anyone about it. As a demon himself, it was likely that he was the only one who knew…
As soon as Baili Jia Jue got to the restaurant, he removed his sungla.s.ses. The moment he revealed his appearance, he caught everyone’s eyes, diners and restaurant staff alike.
“He’s so handsome!”
“He looks like one of those comic characters.”
“Look at his silver hair, did he dye it?”
“I don’t think so. He’s probably mixed. Look at his child’s eyes. They’re so red and bright, just like a gem! Do all foreign children look that good?”
“Good genes are also the key, I guess. Too bad you guys missed his mother. I managed to take a glance at her while serving them just now. Gosh, she’s simply gorgeous even without makeup! Not only that, she is super nice and she kept smiling at me when I was taking her order from earlier. What a graceful lady! So is her younger son who wore his napkin on his own, he looks just like a little prince.”
“These people must be what we call the real winners in life! With such a strikingly handsome husband, not to mention two cool and lovely sons. Oh my G.o.d, this woman must have saved the entire universe in her past life!”
Being well-bred at all times, Helian Wei Wei turned around to smile at the girls after overhearing their discussions. That smile seemed to have blurred the gender distinctions, being so wicked yet charming.
This drove the girls to take a s.h.i.+ne to her and they were all eager to take photos of the family of four.
However, as soon as they pressed the shutter, all of their phones crashed in unison. This was strange indeed, as if the batteries were drained away all of a sudden.
They were so focused on their phones that they did not notice the flash at the bottom of Baili Jia Jue’s eyes as he put down his wine gla.s.s.
As for Baili Shangxie, he did not mind being photographed by any of them. Anyway, his first thought after arriving in the modern age was to be a superstar. Thus, it would be necessary for him to get used to all kinds of camera shots if he were to be a superstar.
Nevertheless, he knew very well that his possessive Imperial Father would never allow photos of his Imperial Mother to be snapped at will.
Meanwhile, Helian Wei Wei was burying herself in the food like how she used to as she continued stuffing her little face with food. Whenever she came across a delicious dish, she would always transfer some onto Baili Jia Jue’s plate.
Baili Jia Jue barely ate anything. He put his arm over the back of her chair and spent most of his time refilling Helian Wei Wei’s bowl. It was a gesture full of ineffable gentleness.
The two little ones were enjoying their food, especially Little Qingchen. He looked remarkably adorable as he munched on his little piece of rib.
Baili Shangxie, on the other hand, had been busy rolling up his brother’s sleeves the entire time. After dinner, Helian Wei Wei brought the three of them to the ancient city for a stroll.
The ancient city of Li City was exceptionally beautiful, in particular during night time. Amid the bustling and vibrant scenes were all kinds of snacks and stores with indescribable ethnic characteristics. Besides, there was also a Westerner Street reverberated with melodious singing.
With wobbly steps, Little Qingchen kept on stroking his belly, for he had eaten too much earlier.
Baili Shangxie took his brother by his hand and chatted with him from time to time. Both of them were murmuring in each other’s ears. They mainly talked about the taking of sidekicks upon returning to the kindergarten.
Little Qingchen offered his full support.
Helian Wei Wei, who was ahead of them, felt an array of emotions upon hearing their conversation. Why does it feel like her sons have not been brought up properly?
Despite that, the two little ones were still considered well-behaved. When Little Qingchen came across a large dog on the road, he halted abruptly before pattering toward Helian Wei Wei. “Pretty Wei Wei, Blackie hasn’t come out recently.”
Before Helian Wei Wei could speak, Baili Jia Jue narrowed his eyes and reached out a hand to pinch his eldest son’s ear. Soon, a black earring for magic suppression appeared on Baili Shangxie’s ear bone.
Almost instantly, a magical dog with black mist emanating from its body showed up in front of Little Qingchen. Its hair was black and dense, like a mixed breed Tibetan Mastiff. It immediately caught everyone’s attention at once.
The magical dog was very obedient to its little master as it trailed closely behind the two little ones in a docile manner throughout the whole journey.
Right at this moment!
