Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Helian Wei Wei looked back at him, he had sat down at his original position.
Baili Jia Jue reached for two wine cups. He filled them them up and passed a wine glass to her.
Helian Wei Wei took the wine cup from his hand and stood up free and easy: “To our cooperation.”
Cooperation? Baili Jia Jue found that he did not like such alienated words. He did not drink from the wine cup in his hand, and only said calmly: “This wine cup is used for wedding wine.”
Do they exchange the wedding wine between them?
Helian Wei Wei blinked in confusion.
Baili Jia Jue’s tone was cool: “Don’t forget, there are people outside.”
This time, Helian Wei Wei understood his meaning, fake lovingness.
Helian Wei Wei smiled and poured herself a cup of wedding wine, her porcelain arm exposed from her wedding dress as she reached over.
Baili Jia Jue watched her movements as she tilted her body slightly and bent her arms as she brought the porcelain cup to her lips.
Helian Wei Wei felt that the two of them were very close to each other, the shudder in her body became more and more unstable. After she drank the wine she retracted her hand and spoke to move the attention away from herself: “Your Highness, shouldn’t you remove your mask?”
“You are eager to see my appearance?” Baili Jia Jue laughed, his voice seemed to have a hint of evil and said slowly: “When you see it, you will regret it.”
Helian Wei Wei wondered what it was that she would regret. She hadn’t really married the Third Prince. Besides, looking at his charming eyes, even if his face were to have a scar, surely he still wouldn’t be that bad looking.
“What your Highness is saying, is that he wants me to look?” Helian Wei Wei challenged him with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Baili Jia Jue’s lips curled into a smile: “I am worried that once you have seen my face you will not dare to continue to sit here.”
“I am not that timid.” Helian Wei Wei was also laughing, in Helian Wei Wei’s mind, all these words His Highness was saying now was just procrastination.
What happened next Helian Wei Wei had not expected. The usually serious Baili Jia Jue took one look at her and placed the wine cup on the table. His fingertips slowly lifted off the silver mask from his face, his dark eyes and straight nose were exposed at the same time. His thin lips followed and Helian Wei Wei was mesmerised by his awe-inspiring beauty.
His lips were curved in a smile, and yet he was not really smiling, his face could charm everyone, exquisite and delicate, from top to bottom there was an air of class and arrogance.
Helian Wei Wei looked into his eyes, they were familiar beyond words, she was completely stunned.
Wait, she must have got out on the wrong side of the bed today!
She wasn’t dreaming.
Her fingertips were hurting.
That meant that the Third Prince in front of her right now was her partner whom she had not seen recently!
“How?” Baili Jia Jue reached out and lifter her long hair: “Golden Lord, you seldom look like this. I thought you weren’t afraid of anything? It doesn’t matter, besides, I’m just a broken sleeve, right?”
The words “broken sleeves” brought back memories of when Helian Wei Wei was at the academy and all that she had said to her partner.
Including the phrase “The Third Prince actually likes to be below…”
Someone tell her this isn’t true!
“So tell me, shall I let you be below later on, or on top?” Baili Jia Jue lowered his body, his thin lips by her ear, his evil presence touching her: “Golden Lord who gave me 22 silver tales and sent me on my way.”
Bastard!
She finally realized what is called death will not die!
Why was she so silly back then and gave him 22 silver tales!
Retribution, it was retribution!
But…..
Helian Wei Wei closed her eyes: “Did you marry me for revenge?”
“Revenge?” Baili Jia Jue stopped, his gaze was deep: “What are you worth for me to want to take revenge? Don’t forget, the idea of marriage was your idea.”
That was true, but Helian Wei Wei still felt unhappy about it: “You have been deceiving me all along. What you only brought one servant into the Academy and you don’t have money to buy any clothes.”
“I did only bring Shadow with me, as for the money.” Baili Jia Jue’s tone was calm yet domineering: “I never go out with money.”
That was because the people who accompany you will bring money! Helian Wei Wei’s pouted and raised her eyebrow as she looked at him: “I thought there would be trust between us.”
“Don’t tell me that your next sentence is, you don’t think this marriage is suitable.” Baili Jia Jue’s gaze was cold. His expression had not changed much, it was possibly even more casual than usual. However, his hand below his sleeve slowly tightened, the purple jade in his hands was broken in his palm.
This was why he had never told her his identity.
He knew that if there was any change, all his well-calculated plans would be seen as a conspiracy by her!
Helian Wei Wei really felt that way. However, they had already went through the wedding ceremony, and she didn’t want to go back on her word, so she just had to keep her distance: “Your Highness, you’re over-thinking matters.”
“Really?” Baili Jia Jue had already calmed down, and with a wry smile that was so charming, he said: “Including what you said about me not liking women? Did I over-think that too?”
Helian Wei Wei stiffened, her heart sank. Can you stop mentioning this matter!
What exactly did she say to His Highness!
Just let her die!
Of course Baili Jia Jue would not give her a chance to hide. His forehead was pressed against hers. If she looked up, she would be met by his beautiful and yet dangerous eyes.
“Do you know what my reaction was when I first heard those words?” Baili Jia Jue’s calm voice was a little hoarse, like he was smiling, and with a breath behind her ear, it succeeded in raising all the hairs on her body. “When I get the chance, I will definitely teach you a lesson.”
Helian Wei Wei took a breath and her heart skipped a beat. Her body had already felt a little odd before. But now it seemed to be very sensitive and her whole body felt hot like she was on a stove. It was soft and lacked energy.
Helian Wei Wei’s reaction was to push him away!
There must be a problem somewhere.
Otherwise, the male minty breath on her…
She would not have wanted to touch His Highness’ arm.
Did someone poison her?
Helian Wei Wei’s mind was clear, no matter what, right now she needed to go and find some water to cool down the temperature of her body!
