Lan Lian did not understand the meaning behind Helian Wei Weiâs words but she knew what she was thinking.
That was why she praised her in front of His Highness on purpose.
Was she trying to make her stay away from His Highness?
Lan Lianâs gaze darkened when she thought about that and said, âPrincess Consort, youâre flattering me.â
It turned out that Lan Lian had been overthinking.
Helian Wei Wei did not have many thoughts like her. She was considering a matter while tapping her finger on the side of the desk. âFollow me to the Clan Meeting the day after tomorrow and speak out about what happened in the past few days between you and Helian Guang Yao. There shouldnât be a problem right?â
âAlright.â Lan Lian lowered her head again and her tone was slightly insincere. âNo problem.â
Helian Wei Wei took a teacup and turned it with her fingertips slightly. âI hate forcing people to do things that they are not willing to. Please let me know after you make up your mind. Your reputation will be destroyed if you really expose your relationship with Helian Guang Yao in public.â
Lan Lian raised her beautiful eyes and gazed toward Baili Jia Jue.
However, she realized that he did not even peek a glance at her.
Lan Lian was inevitably disappointed, but the love in her eyes did not reduce. âDonât worry, Princess Consort. The task was handed by His Highness himself and I will complete whatever His Highness assigned to me even if I need to lose my life. Not to mention losing my reputation.â
She was obviously saying those words to Helian Wei Wei to show her sacrifices and unwillingness to give up.
Right at that moment, as if he only realized her presence, Baili Jia Jue frowned after listening to what she said.
As the person who implicated in this issue, Helian Wei Wei sneered and said to Baili Jia Jue. âPlease leave. I have something to talk to Lan Lian.â
âMe? Leave?â Baili Jia Jueâs sight darkened. The only thing on his mind at that moment was to kill Lan Lian!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Why did people tend to appear in front of her and act like they used to have something going on?
Strong hatred emerged from his eyes.
Lan Lianâs body shook and her face became pale as paper. How could she even forget the temper of His Highness...
âAre you trying to kill someone in front of me?â Helian Wei Wei smiled and pinched his hand.
Baili Jia Jue turned back to his usual expression with a fake smile in the blink of an eye. He then held her up and said with a gentle tone, âHow come? Please donât always misunderstand your husband.â
Misunderstand? There would be a dead body in front of her if she did not stop him.
âAnd you can say whatever you like, just pretend like Iâm not here.â Baili Jia Jue lowered his head and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
Helian Wei Wei felt helpless. He had such a tall body and a forceful temperament, how could she pretend as if he was not there?
Baili Jia Jue hooked his lip and took her hand away from her forehead and said, âIf you have any misunderstanding during your conversation with her, it will be unfair for me.â
âWe havenât even started talking. Why would you feel injustice?â Helian Wei Wei relieved a sigh. âFine. Lan Lian, you may go back first, Iâll talk to you again.â
âUnderstood.â Lan Lian replied, feeling lucky that she was able to escape from there. She did not want His Highness to know her feelings that she had been hiding for a long time.
However, the voice of Baili Jia Jue rose at this time. âSince you donât want to talk to her, let me do the talking to her then.â Upon saying that, he looked at Lan Lian with a cold gaze.
Lan Lian was stunned and she immediately knelt on the floor.
Baili Jia Jue walked toward her with a sense of insouciance. âDo you like me?â
Lan Lian raised her head in an instant, her cheeks were burning. âI... I...â
âI donât like you.â Baili Jia Jue did not wait for her response and said with his calm tone, âI have never done a thing that would make you think that Iâm interested in you.â
Lan Lian bit her lip and wanted to explain!
Baili Jia Jue did not give her any chance to talk. âNow, please tell me what is your intention for your words just now?â
âI... I did not mean to prove anything.â Lan Lian was almost bursting into tears. âI... I was just telling the truth.â
Baili Jia Jue took a glance at her and smiled evilly, âTelling the truth? Are you taking me as a fool? It seems like Iâve been too gentle recently and caused you all to have illusions.â
âYour Highness!â Lan Lian choked with sobs and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. âIndeed, I like you, but should I die because of this?â She rather spilled everything out at this moment!
Baili Jia Jue was in silence. Darkness glided over his eyes and turned into a black mist. He did not want to kill in front of the little one but these fellas were really getting on his nerves!
âLiking a person is not wrong.â Helian Wei Wei held Baili Jia Jueâs wrist and said with a soft tone, âHowever, youâre wrong in liking a person who has formed a family. Itâs fine that you didnât give up on that. Yet, youâre trying to challenge me, didnât you? Lan Lian, love means not to hurt the third person in a relationship. Any attempt to interrupting the mind of others is not a determination. Youâre only humiliating yourself. If Baili Jia Jue really falls for you, please go ahead and take him away from me. I, Helian Wei Wei will never accept a man who is fickle in love. But what youâre trying to do is step into our relationship now when we are happy together. Haha, Lan Lian, I donât care who you like, but if you do not take care of the limit, I will immediately kick you out of the palace. I have hundreds of ways in dealing with a mistress. Would you like to give it a try? Just get a hold of yourself and be a loyal servant.â
Women must be cruel in order to stabilize their position.
Helian Wei Wei always believed in this quote.
As she mentioned, she would never stop anyone to fall in love with Baili Jia Jue. After all, people have the right to do that.
But after provoking her, she still dared to feel wronged?
She did not mind to let her have a taste of her way!
If Baili Jia Jue also had a share in this matter, she would never even bother.
She would just let him go and leave.
It was probably because his father was taken by a mistress too.
She then suffered from the misophobia of relationships.
She would choose to either stay together forever or be alone.
She was the type of person who could not tolerate one tiny dust in her eyes.
She had always been like this.
Lan Lianâs thoughts were all exposed by Helian Wei Wei which caused her to feel the extraordinary shame and fear. She only realized why His Highness walked toward her just now.
He really intended to kill her!
If the Princess Consort did not stop him, she would have died in a splash of blood.
His Highness could definitely see things thoroughly as if anyone could...
