Chapter 452
She was silly to provoke the Princess Consort and forgot that His Highness would realize.
His Highness had reflected clearly that he did not like her.
It actually made sense as he had never paid attention to her.
Perhaps, if she was not given the task to spy around Helian Guang Yao, he would have already forgotten her name.
To him, they were just tools, whether it was her, or Hei Zhu…
As Lan Lian thought of it, she was finally aware of her status. She immediately knelt on the floor while hitting her head hard, “Princess Consort, I will never do that again! Princess Consort and Your Highness, please give me a chance! I will only do what I should do as a servant from today onward without any improper thoughts!”
The man was just like the moon, hung in the sky far away. He would not be hers.
Regardless of how great he was, it was a fact that he belonged to someone else.
She had met a lot of men. Despite how heroic they were in others’ eyes, they were just some terrible perverted b*stards who would abandon their wives.
The only guy that was different from them was His Highness…
Perhaps, this was the reason why she fell for him.
However, it was too late…
She did not think that the Princess Consort would let someone who had thoughts for the Third Prince to stay in the imperial palace.
The Princess Consort had been generous for stopping the Third Prince from killing her. It was beyond the thought that she would still let her stay in the imperial palace.
Perhaps, the Princess Consort might have thought of an excuse to send her off…
Lan Lian lowered her head and smiled bitterly.
Unexpectedly, Helian Wei Wei hummed softly in approval.
Lan Lian lifted her sight astonishingly and swayed her eyes in disbelief.
Obviously, Baili Jia Jue disagreed with the decision and warned Helian Wei Wei by rubbing her wrist with his finger.
Helian Wei Wei knew that the guy needed to be placated. She stood on tiptoe and patted his head, it was like saying that ‘It’s ok’.
Baili Jia Jue was amused. He was being thought of as a pet.
Lan Lian was astonished. “Why? Why would you let me stay?” She did not think that Helian Wei Wei was being kind for making the decision as she knew that Helian Wei Wei was not an easy person to deal with, judging by what she said before that.
“You will only risk your life to protect him if you truly love him.” Helian Wei Wei said softly, “I can actually make you leave, but once you leave the gate, first things first, you will have resentment. Secondly, I’m afraid that he will take action before me. He already had so many bloodstains on his hands, it’s better if it can be lesser.”
After all, her every consideration was purposely made for His Highness.
Lan Lian finally realized her weak point after listening to Helian Wei Wei’s words.
As compared to the Princess Consort, her love toward the Third Prince was insignificant.
She always thought that she was smart.
But now, as she looked at Helian Wei Wei who was staying by Baili Jia Jue’s side comfortably and coolly, she knew that she was too inexperienced.
She used to have the thought to wait for him to turn around to look at her closely.
However, she would not have that thought anymore.
She did not have the verve as Helian Wei Wei. As her heart was beating rapidly while she stood beside the Third Prince, she was nervous at the same time.
After all, accompanying the Third Prince was like accompanying a tiger.
However, Helian Wei Wei was not like her. Her brilliance almost exceeded the Third Prince’s.
Based on their conversation today, everything she said was just to keep his name.
Lan Lian admitted that she could never do that as she never thought of that aspect.
In other words, the only thing that she cared about was whether she could get him but she never considered for him.
Helian Wei Wei was truly a successor of Helian who was capable of ‘reviving’ the Helian family.
“Princess Consort!” Lan Lian lifted her eyes with a convinced glance. “Please bring me along to attend the Clan Meeting, I have ideas on how to deal with Helian Guang Yao.”
Helian Wei Wei looked at her and smiled, “It’s not your business anymore regarding Helian Guang Yao’s case.”
Lan Lian’s fingers froze, she said with difficulty, “Princess Consort, do you still not believe in me or do you think that I’m changing way too fast? I just figured everything out suddenly, I…”
“No.” Without waiting for Lan Lian to finish, Helian Wei Wei yawned and said, “I mean it when I said that you don’t need to deal with Helian Guang Yao anymore. I’ve already got ways to handle him. I need you to deal with someone else. It will be a wonderful scene when the time comes!”
Lan Lian’s eyes brightened up as she heard that, “Prin… Princess Consort, did you just said that you will take me to the Clan Meeting?”
“Yeah.” Helian Wei Wei replied softly, looking tired as her eyelids drooped.
Lan Lian stepped down as she knew that it was not convenient for her to stay any longer. Since then, Lan Lian’s impression of Helian Wei Wei changed, she would pay her compliments when she met people.
Baili Jia Jue felt warm inside. He thought that his idea to get her a gift was plain trouble until he heard what Helian Wei Wei said and he got his inner beast controlled.
She worked really hard to prevent his hand to get stained by blood once again.
Perhaps he would start to consider forgiving those people whenever he was going to kill.
“Why are you not talking?” Helian Wei Wei said sleepily. She buried her head into his arm, rubbed her face back and forth and shook her head to keep herself conscious.
“Don’t shake your head like that, just sleep if you’re tired.” Baili Jia Jue extended his arms and held her up.
Helian Wei Wei closed her eyes as she felt relaxed and comfortable in his arms. As she was falling asleep, she was aware that she was being placed on the bed. “No… I don’t want it anymore, I just want to sleep…” she said subconsciously while grabbing his sleeve.
Baili Jia Jue blanked for a moment and broke into laughter while kissing her ears gently, “Okay, I won’t move. I’ll wait for you to wake up. But you need to lift your arms so that I can help you to remove your outer shirt, it will be uncomfortable for you to sleep with it.”
Helian Wei Wei complied as he removed her outer shirt and sank into his chest comfortably while inhaling his sandalwood scent.
Baili Jia Jue reached out and held her tight while placing his jaw on top of her head. He rubbed her head softly with a smile, he looked unusually gentle yet dangerous.
What could he do?
It was getting harder to get her off.
He would even bring her along if he had to go to hell someday.
People always said that most relationships were about completion.
As for him, he only wanted to hold her tight, forever!
Baili Jia Jue took a deep breath to clear his mind and suppressed the wetness in his eyes. As he opened his eyes, he looked holy and precious.
He lifted her chin and kissed her lips, “Do not betray me, never ever…”
