Chapter 417
Baili Jia Jue really enjoyed it.
He only picked her up and put her in his arms, not knowing after how long they had lingered on.
Then, he gently patted her back with an unbelievable gentleness.
Helian Wei Wei was indeed an indolent person. However, she did not know why her plan in getting herself a wife ended up with her whole body being fagged out. Yet, his side face was totally unaffected as he was slowly tidying up his sleeves, not even a single pleat could be found on his shirt.
Helian Wei Wei felt that nothing was going on smoothly the whole day.
Meanwhile, the whole academy had been discussing about her due to her actions of sending flowers and booking the entire shop.
Heize could not stand it anymore, and thus he asked her out to talk about it. “What are you thinking about?”
“What do you mean?” Helian Wei Wei yawned.
Heize raised his brows and said, “I’m talking about the things you’ve done. I thought you dislike the palace and wanted to leave?”
“Well, with regards to that.” Helian Wei Wei pulled her slender fingers back and smiled, “I’ve thought about it. It’s not necessary for me to leave even though I dislike the place. I can try to change the position I’m in.”
Can you not be so sloppy in making such a decision!
“Oh right.” Helian Wei Wei’s eyes shone, “Can you please find out the backgrounds of all the participants of the consort election.”
“What are you planning to do?” Heize frowned his brows in vigilance.
Helian Wei Wei shrugged and smiled faintly as she said, “Knowing your own strength and that of the enemy is the key to success.”
“Are you planning to participate in the consort election?” Heize looked at her face. He could not bear to think about the result and implicitly said, “I don’t know their backgrounds, but they are all pretty fair.” He was implying that she was tan and thus would be defeated in a matter of minutes.
However, Helian Wei Wei just raised her eyebrows and merely acknowledged it.
This was not what Heize wanted to know. Hence, he paused for a moment and said, “What does this have to do with you sending flowers to the Third Prince?”
“Don’t you get it?” Helian Wei Wei was also confused, “I’m chasing after him.”
Heize was dumbfounded. He had been staying in the Capital for such a long time and it was his first time seeing a girl chasing after someone… vigorously!
“Does ‘sending flowers’ have anything to do with you chasing after him?”
Helian Wei Wei smiled mysteriously, “You won’t understand.”
Heize really could not understand! Was it necessary for a girl who was chasing after a guy to send flowers? Was it not supposed to be for the guy to send flowers to the girl?!
“I have read a lot of books. All the experiences of courting a guy are learned from there as it is easy to find a way that suits my identity there.” Helian Wei Wei did not think of it as a problem and was rationally sharing her thoughts with Heize, “Just like ‘The Arms Tycoon is in Love with Me’ sort of books.”
Heize was not ashamed to ask, “The Arms Tycoon is in Love with Me? What is that?”
Helian Wei Wei spent 20 minutes explaining the book to Heize.
Heize finally understood it. The corner of his mouth twitched. “Therefore, you take yourself as the arms tycoon in the book?”
“Of course.” Helian Wei Wei slightly lifted her chin. She was not only an arms tycoon, but she was also a bossy president. “I’ve analyzed everything. All the strategies used are basically to dominate the other party and to let the whole world know that he is the love of my life. First, send some flowers, then cook him a meal and finally, get everything settled with a proper kiss. As long as a scene is pulled off, it will be easy to get the person!”
Upon hearing this, a tangled expression ran up Heize’s face. “Dominate the other party?”
“This is not in line with my style.” As she was saying this, Helian Wei Wei started to feel shy, “I like to go step by step.”
Heize was speechless
Nobody asks you about this!
How can a woman dominate the Third Prince?
“Therefore, I’ve learned something else.” Helian Wei Wei had always done things seriously. Thus, she would definitely make extra preparations in chasing after a guy. “I’ve also read this book.” She took the hidden book out as she was saying and handed it to Heize. “I’m really happy when I first saw the book, because it has specific methods in pursuing a person. It even gave me inspiration.”
Heize looked at the cover of the book. The black letters written on the book were “108 Ways to Court Your ‘Wife'”.
…
Court Your Wife?!
Wife!
So, this is the so-called inspiration it gives you, leading you to embark on the journey to hell?
“You better not let the Third Prince see this book.” Heize coughed twice!
Helian Wei Wei let out a long sigh, “Unfortunately, he has known about it.”
How come he did not choke you to death!
“I felt like it was not done flashy enough,” Helian Wei Wei continued.
Heize did not know how to face her and was screaming out loud in his heart. Trust me, it was flashy!
The entire academy was now talking about her sending flowers to His Highness. The teacher even fainted because of her. What else did she want to achieve?
“I’ve thought of a good idea.” Helian Wei Wei’s eyes deepened and she started to laugh slyly as she continued, “but, I will need your cooperation.”
Heize covered his face, “I don’t want to get killed by the Third Prince. Last time he even threatened me, saying that he will arrange a marriage for me if I meet you again!”
“Don’t worry. We are going to do something astounding this time, and he is not going to care.” Helian Wei Wei lifted the corner of her eyes, exuding an indolent yet cunning aura.
Heize was about to cry. What kind of sister did he get for himself!
Nightfall, the sky turned dark.
In between the fog, a man in a white shirt was standing under the vines, letting out a few coughs.
“Master, are you okay?” The little one carrying a bottle gourd on his back pulled the corner of the man’s shirt. His face was full of worries, “Master, what’s wrong with you?”
The man in white gave him a faint smile, “I’m fine.”
“Are you unhappy because she sent flowers to someone else today?” The little one bit his lips. “Master, why don’t you tell her? You’ve been looking for her for such a long time. You even visited the underworld because of her, causing your body to get into such a state. But, she doesn’t seem to know anything.”
The man in white stretched his hand out and patted the little one, “I will. I will tell her when she is truly awake.”
“But, the previous array has been cracked. We must set up a new one.” The eyes of the little one sank. As the night breeze swept across, ripples were formed on the surface of the Green Dragon Lake.
The man in white muttered an acknowledgment. His voice was a little cold and he was in an absentminded state.
The little one knew that his master still could not forget the scene that he witnessed today. His little hands hung by his side and he obediently followed his master walking into the busy Trading Compound…
