Chapter 401: His Highness Helped Wei Wei

Helian Wei Wei paused her steps and hesitated, before she spoke up again, “I need your help.”

“What is it?” Baili Jia Jue sounded indifferent and colder than usual.

Helian Wei Wei knew that this favor did not benefit him in any way, but she had no other choice. “Heize is brought in as a murderer, and obviously the magistrate is trying to frame him. There must be someone working behind him, and if there isn’t anyone with power that can put him in his place, there’s no telling what he could do next.”

Baili Jia Jue did not say anything. He stopped what he was doing and faced her, his eyes were burning with coldness.

Helian Wei Wei felt a wave of guilt rush through her as she recalled the countless times he warned her to keep her distance from Heize. “I know I am asking a lot from you to get involved with the White Academy, but I can’t just standby and watch an innocent man thrown into the jail. Heize is not the murderer…”

“This is the first time you have ever asked for my help,” Baili Jia Jue’s voice was as cold as Japanese sake as it echoed through the room, “Yet, it’s about of another man.”

Helian Wei Wei lifted her head and looked at him.

Baili Jia Jue retained his apathetic look, his finely handmade robe was draped over his body, stopping right before his ankles, fitting him perfectly. He cocked his head to one side, his eyes were unreadable.

He and his grandeur of sovereignty.

Helian Wei Wei felt that something was not right.

Perhaps it was those inhospitable eyes, not even a reflection of the skies could be seen in them… Helian Wei Wei’s heart clenched at the thought. It was as though his presence was suffocating her, even the atmosphere around them was tense.

After a while, Baili Jia Jue finally stood up and step by step he walked toward her, his attractive handsome face was so perfect like finely sculpted ice, extremely captivating. “And what would I get, from helping you?”

“The throne.” Helian Wei Wei stared into those deep dark eyes of his, “I will do everything in my power to help you get it.”

Baili Jia Jue smiled upon hearing this, but his expression could send shivers down one’s spine. “Do you think that without your help, I would not be able to achieve the throne by myself? Or are you implying that I have to possess it no matter what?”

Helian Wei Wei did not respond, she obviously knew that without her, the throne would still be easily taken by the man in front of her, the only problem standing between them was the timing.

“When you need me, you’ll come running; when you’re done with me, you’ll just hurl me aside.” Baili Jia Jue approached her until she was pressed against the corner of the room. The smell of sandalwood wafted through the air, sending a cold chill running through her. He lowered his head and said, “Why do the good things always happen to you?”

Helian Wei Wei was flustered, she wanted to get out of this situation fast. She lifted her gaze to look at him, her eyes glimmering brighter than ever, “Your Highness has decided to help me?”

When he saw the worried look on her face, the cold and ruthless Baili Jia Jue tried to hide his smile as he coldly stated, “You really do care for him.”

He released his hands on her forcefully, making her nearly losing her balance. Luckily she was not the type like Yun Biluo who acted soft and weak in front of people, if not she would have been thrown halfway across the room by now.

Helian Wei Wei massaged her wrists as she listened to him saying, “I will lend you a hand, but on one condition.”

“Anything.” This round, she owed him a favor.

“So frank and straightforward,” he said. She did not know what she did wrong to have received that comment. Helian Wei Wei saw the coldness looming in his eyes staring back at her with spite, “It seems that he is very much important to you.”

Helian Wei Wei did not deny, the only thing on her mind right now was to save the life of another.

Baili Jia Jue looked into her eyes deeply once again, his robes fluttering behind him. “Shadow,” he called out. His voice was so calm that he almost sounded indifferent.

“At your service, Your Highness.” Shadow swept past the crowns of the trees, landed on his knees and knelt down before His Highness on the ground.

Baili Jia Jue took out a piece of token and ordered, “Go find the magistrate and pass this to him. This is a warning for him to not randomly capture any innocent person to compensate for other’s crime, if this happens again, I will take away his post.”

“Yes, Your Highness!” Shadow received the order and immediately stood up. Before he left, he shot Helian Wei Wei a look.

Helian Wei Wei knew that Shadow was blaming her for all of this, that look of his said it all.

She also knew that this favor of hers was a bit too much to ask of them.

Not to mention that this plan might even cause trouble for Baili Jia Jue.

At first, she was just feeling anxious about all of this, she was merely testing her luck when she asked him.

She never thought that he would actually agree.

Helian Wei Wei hesitated, then said, “In the future, if His Highness needs me in any way, I would go through high and low just to help.”

“If I don’t let you go through high and low, then you shall accompany me in bed.” Baili Jia Jue sounded quite serious as he removed his outerwear and hurled it aside.

Helian Wei Wei choked on her words.

The Little Seventh Prince who was dragging a crawling beast came in and saw all of this, which made Third Brother slightly unhappy.

Oops.

How about… he just quietly fell back.

However, there was no going back for the Little Seventh Prince now, as he was intelligent enough to know what was going on.

The only problem was that there was no place he could think of to hide the large beast he was hauling.

Hehe… trying to escape? In your dreams!

Baili Jia Jue’s gaze was fixated on the little one who was caught in this impossible situation. His eyebrows twitched as he called out, “Come here.”

The little one quivered at his voice, he dragged his little feet toward him, his mind still on the thought of sharing what he sowed, “Third Brother, I have caught a crawling beast for your lunch.”

Sadly, Baili Jia Jue did not share the same interest in food as him, “I thought you were supposed to be in the imperial palace. Do you know that the academy is in a mess right now?”

“I…” The little one rubbed his Little Tiger Head guiltily, then he saw his Third Aunt standing at the side, and willingly trudged over to her so that they were crouching together in the corner.

At the same time, he looked at His Highness with puppy eyes, hoping that it would have an effect on him. Too bad, His Highness was not bothered by feelings, his face was cold and indifferent as he sipped the tea in his hands, flipping the pages of his ancient book every now and then, posing a languid demeanor. He was absolutely stunning to look at.

Occasionally, he would stop and glance at the two in the corner casually, catching them standing upright with vigilance, even their movements were restricted.

Baili Jia Jue retrieved his gaze cooly.

Little Seven sighed heavily, his heart hammering loudly against his chest, as he angrily thought to himself, If he wants to read, then focus on reading. Why does he have to keep glancing at us? It makes it harder to breathe in here! Third Brother is really terrifying!

Helian Wei Wei had the same thought, the aura radiating from Baili Jia Jue was extremely petrifying. She had to be on guard even when he sipped his tea as if he had other intentions toward them…
