The sun was setting behind Young Master Tang as he was speaking. The afterglow shone on his smart military uniform so brightly that it was dazzling.
Helian Wei Wei reminisced about her past life. The little boy, who looked at her quietly in Chinatown, had always been like that. Even if he had stained his hands with blood, no one would feel like he was dirty. Instead, he appeared as though light emanated from within him.
Perhaps, this was how Young Master Tang would be.
Helian Wei Wei wanted to look at that video again, but something blocked her view.
It was Baili Jia Jue's fair and slender hands without any trace of color in his skin.
He murmured into her ears, “Do you know how long you've been looking at him? Five minutes. In these five minutes, I've spoken three sentences to you but you did not reply at all.”
Helian Wei Wei wanted to explain but Baili Jia Jue pulled her into his arms with such force, as though he wanted to melt her into his blood and bones.
“Do not say anything that would make me unhappy. That would only make me want to lock you up even more.”
Every breath Helian Wei Wei took was full of that man's scent, but she had to make it clear. “I just thought that Young Master Tang's words are very reasonable, that's all.” She could not praise Young Master Tang's handsome appearance in front of His Highness or else he would definitely get jealous.
“Do you think I would believe you?” Baili Jia Jue looked at her, raising his eyebrows.
Helian Wei Wei maintained a solemn face. “You have to trust me. How can we not have the most basic trust in humanity between us?”
Baili Jia Jue was truly jealous now. This person would never understand that all he had wanted was everything that she had. He would not allow her gaze to stop on anyone even though it was just for a few minutes, let alone fixing her gaze at another man admirably.
“It's very easy for me to trust you.” Baili Jia Jue's gaze darkened and hugged her even harder. “When we get back, you must take the initiative.”
Helian Wei Wei was speechless.
They were talking about the issue of trust. How is that related to the issue of who is going to take the initiative?
“Mhmm. If you are not up to standard, then I will take the initiative. You know what the consequences will be if I take the initiative.” Baili Jia Jue was still smiling with a tender look on his face.
Helian Wei Wei could sense his hidden feelings. She laughed and pinched Baili Jia Jue's face. “Hey, you're making it too obvious that you're jealous. Besides, Young Master Tang has his Little Green Plum. Why are you jealous over a married man?”
“Helian Wei Wei, we are talking about the issue of you ignoring me,” said Baili Jia Jue, slowly and elegantly. “Do I need to be jealous of anyone?”
Helian Wei Wei was speechless again. Then tell me, what are you doing now?!
The two little ones at the side looked at each other and chose to ride the butler's car in order to temporarily distance themselves from their Imperial Father. Imperial Mother did not notice it, but when she was looking at the video, they noticed the flowers beside their Imperial Father wilting in an instant. It would be better for them to distance themselves from their Imperial Father in such a state.
Baili Jia Jue did not continue discussing this with Helian Wei Wei, instead, he held onto her, and both of them got in the sports car prepared for them to hop on.
If you thought His Highness was the one driving, you were wrong.
Helian Wei Wei was the one driving. His Highness was leisurely sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat, as usual, navigating the route to Helian Wei Wei.
They did not leave for home immediately. Instead, they took a detour to Beautiful City.
Actually, this was because the moment they got off the plane, Helian Wei Wei sighed that it was such a pity to not be able to visit Beautiful City when they were already here. Hence, Baili Jia Jue canceled his schedule and booked a hotel room instantly.
He wanted to go back as early as possible so that he could lock her up and keep her unscrupulously to himself.
However, His Highness would always make sure that Helian Wei Wei got the chance to do whatever she wanted to do.
The UV rays in Beautiful City were very strong, especially in the afternoon.
Even though Baili Jia Jue disliked sunlight, he still allowed Helian Wei Wei to hold his arm as she visited the ancient streets of Beautiful City with gleaming eyes.
She was similar to a small and cute animal.
His Highness curled up his lips into a smile and pulled Helian Wei Wei into his arms, dropping a kiss on her hair.
That action was so small that Helian Wei Wei, who was busy eating, did not notice it. However, the surrounding people did.
“He must love his girlfriend very much.”
“Wow, that gaze just now was so affectionate…”
Although Helian Wei Wei was slow to react in some aspects, she could clearly feel His Highness' dislike toward the sunlight. After strolling around for a while, she suggested that they should head back to the hotel.
Baili Jia Jue raised his eyebrows. “I thought you liked it? Why do you want to go back?”
“Because you do not like sunlight.” Helian Wei Wei pulled him along as she walked, purposely choosing to walk through shady places. She was smart enough to notice that in the past, although he did not like staying in the sun, he could still do so, now he would frown whenever he was under the sun. This might have something to do with him ripping a hole in s.p.a.ce and time.
Ultimately, it was all for her.
Helian Wei Wei paused, tightening her grip of his huge hand.
Of course, Baili Jia Jue knew what she was thinking, but His Highness loved to see her being anxious over him.
Hmm… if that's the case, they could probably do one more day…
The man smiled, like a blooming Devil's Snare, charming yet malevolent at the same time.
After going back to the hotel, the more Helian Wei Wei contemplated, the more she felt that His Highness needed to be taken care of. Hence, without any exaggeration, she did all the ch.o.r.es, even peeling oranges.
In the past, Helian Wei Wei would carry the luggage when he asked her to. But now, Helian Wei Wei would automatically carry the luggage and even placed the chopsticks on His Highness' bowl.
Looking at this scene, Baili Shangxie lowered his voice, saying to his Imperial Father, “You did something again on purpose to cause Imperial Mother to have a misunderstanding, right?”
