Chapter 394
Helian Wei Wei sneered as she played around with the porcelain cup in her hands. When she looked up to gaze at Yun Biluo once again, there was a chilling aura that radiated from her. “Yun Biluo, trust me when I say that if you continue popping into my sights, I’ll make sure that you’ll never become a secondary consort!”
Wasn’t it just a battle of beauty?
She was still confident of this face of hers.
Not expecting Helian Wei Wei to say such things, Yun Biluo’s teary sobs paused, clenching the fists hidden under her sleeves as she turned back to catch a glimpse of her friends with a pitiful look on her face. “Let’s just go.”
Those people glared at Helian Wei Wei threateningly as they helped Yun Biluo down the stairs. Vaguely, their voices could still be heard as they comforted Yun Biluo, “Sister Yun, don’t be upset. It isn’t up to her whether or not you become the secondary consort. Moreover, has she looked at herself in the mirror? How could she possibly stop an imperial order from the Emperor…”
“I’m alright.” Yun Biluo appeared as if she was trying her best to smile where the corners of her mouth were curved upward with the aim of invoking more sympathy. “I’m sorry I got everyone worried…”
Heize observed the interactions below and glanced at Helian Wei Wei, “Girl, compared to what Yun Biluo just did, you have a long way to go.”
“I know.” Helian Wei Wei took a sip of her tea only to notice that it had turned cold.
Heize raised his eyebrow. “So, you don’t intend to teach her a lesson?”
“I’ll be busy for these two days.” Helian Wei Wei put down the tea cup, obviously somewhat distracted.
Heize stretched out his hand to tidy her fringe, “Don’t think too much about it. Even if Yun Biluo can act well, we’re not too shabby ourselves. But the most important thing is, what do you think of the Third Prince?”
“No,” Helian Wei Wei’s voice was soft. “The most important thing is what the Third Prince thinks of Yun Biluo.”
Heize laughed, “Whatever you say. In any event, if you feel like you’ve been wronged, I’ll take you away instantly. The Jiang Nan side makes fast money and we could take the chance to expand the influence of Wei Ze World as well.”
Helian Wei Wei agreed with a heart swelling with warmth. Heize treated her very well, just like a protective brother that would fight anyone who bullied his sister even if it would end up with him getting hurt just to avenge her.
In the modern era, she had never had this kind of relationship before. She had always been on her own, going solo even after her mother passed away and when she was framed as a thief. Nobody who had ever stood up for her.
However, Heize would.
He had shown her what family meant.
Heize looked at Helian Wei Wei’s cold face that was filled with gratitude but unaccustomed to thanking people. He patted her head, “Other girls your age only think about how handsome a guy is, but you… from the moment I met you, you always have this ‘I’m-really-lazy-so-stay-away’ face. Do you really need to be so mature?”
“Well, big brother, compared to you floating through the brothels at the age of twelve, I’m really not considered mature.” Helian Wei Wei whacked away his hand as she roasted him in return with no mercy.
With his dark history exposed, Heize’s mouth twitched. This god-sister of his was not in any way cu… Wait!
“What did you just call me?” Heize’s eyes shone.
Helian Wei Wei angled her face away with raised brows, “Big brother.”
“Hahahaha, hahaha.” Heize went absolutely crazy and patted Helian Wei Wei on the shoulder, “You finally called me big brother!”
Helian Wei Wei almost spat out blood from his gesture of patting. She knew that the Hei family had had three consecutive generations of males and that Heize had been whining about wanting a younger sister since Wei Ze World had just started operating.
In summary, no one would have ever thought that Second Master Hei who dominated the commercial world in the city had a sister complex!
“Don’t worry, little sister, even if you’re cold and sharp-tongued, nobody can bully you.” The feeling of having a younger sister was wondrous to Heize and he could not help but pat her head a few more times, thinking that he could show off his sister in the future. He would start by showing her off to his old man at home.
Helian Wei Wei rescued herself from under Heize’s hands, “Cold and sharp-tongued?”
“The details aren’t important!” Heize coughed lightly.
Helian Wei Wei raised her brows and continued, “Let’s focus on what matters. I want you to help me pick out a few bodyguards with exceptional martial arts, but all of them have to be female.”
“Female?” Heize asked curiously, “How come?”
Helian Wei Wei explained the situation of her Yab-Yum.
After listening, Heize laughed, “Isn’t it better to just throw yourself at the Third Prince?”
Helian Wei Wei was speechless. How was this guy’s logic the same as Yuan Xiaoming?
“I don’t want to let issues like this restrict myself.”
Heize pondered meaningfully, “Mmhmm, then do you want me to spend some money to get you a guy?”
“No.” Helian Wei Wei massaged her forehead with apparent repulsion to this suggestion.
Heize looked meaningfully at Helian Wei Wei. “Is that so? So aside from the Third Prince, no other guy will work for you?”
Upon hearing this, Helian Wei Wei was momentarily stunned.
“Mull over this carefully.” Heize stood up with an inexplicable look in his eyes. “I’ll find some good bodyguards for you, but you’ll have to think through the rest by yourself. Be careful of Yun Biluo, she’s very much capable of stirring up trouble.”
Helian Wei Wei nodded, “I know.”
“Then, I’ll make a move first.” Heize patted Helian Wei Wei’s head for a final time. “Just instruct your maid to find me if you need anything.”
“I will.” Helian Wei Wei looked at Heize’s leaving figure and started analyzing the reason why she could only accept Baili Jia Jue.
Behind her, Yuan Ming added wickedly, “What’s strange about that? In the first place, the Third Prince has always been a dashing man, and your first was also given to him. It’s only natural if you feel something for him. The most important thing now is to collect his Qi. Once he really has other women, the Qi won’t be as pure as it is now.”
“You say that as if I’m some kind of evil fairy that preys on the Qi of men.” Helian Wei Wei stood up and did not continue thinking about the issue. Baili Jia Jue was meant to inherit the throne and unless he could give up his harem, there was no point for her to think about it.
This was because she craved freedom more than anyone else.
She would never be able to stay in the Palace and waste her entire life away, chasing the affection and attention of one man.
Walking down from the second floor, the first person that Helian Wei Wei saw was Murong Changfeng.
Compared to the past, the Murong Changfeng now had more of an incomprehensible sullenness in him.
Helian Wei Wei did not understand why he was blocking her, hence, she raised her eyes to look at him before walking around him.
“What was the difference between marrying him and marrying me?” Murong Changfeng’s voice sounded cold behind her, “You couldn’t take the flirting between Jiao Er and I at the time, but now you’re able to bear the fact of having Yun Biluo by his side?”
