Chapter 411: A Tempting Kiss

The Hidden Army looked at each other. What rumor? They really did appear!

They did not expect their young master would agree to the Third Prince’s statement.

Of course, Helian Wei Wei would agree. Now was not the right time for her to reveal her control of the Hidden Army as not all of her weapons were ready. She would be noticed if she were too high profile.

“Come here,” Baili Jia Jue spoke once more, his fleeting, calm tone made his emotions rather difficult to grasp.

Helian Wei Wei raised her brows and entered the room after he did. Just right after she closed the door and turned around, she was trapped between him and the door frame, “Tell me, who let you go?”

“I didn’t just leave, I went to get reinforcements,” Helian Wei Wei smiled smugly before continuing, “How else could I save the beauty as a hero?”

Baili Jia Jue pushed against her, “Hero? You?”

“Wasn’t I cool just now?” Helian Wei Wei yawned lazily. She looked straight at Baili Jia Jue, wanting to walk out of his shadow. “To be frank, don’t you have to thank me for saving you this time?”

Baili Jia Jue hummed and pulled her nearer to him. He slowly lowered his body closer to her, their eyes locked together. The gentle black ink colored eyes were like a deep, mesmerizing lake that could tempt people into jumping in.

Helian Wei Wei was a little uncomfortable with the stare by him. The moment she was about to open her mouth, the warmth on her lips s.n.a.t.c.hed away the words she was about to say.

The hand which was on her cheeks was now holding her chin. Her lips were licked, her teeth invaded, swirling in her mouth. It was unbelievable that a person as cold as him could feel so warm. From his mouth to his body, and the hand that circled behind her, unleas.h.i.+ng an unfamiliar ripple in the bottom of her heart.

“Baili Jia Jue… you can’t…” She tried to move her lips, but the swirling tongue turned the words she forced out into mumbles until they melted between their lips. The humid heat and burning breath were chipping her resistance away, leaving her defenseless against Baili Jia Jue’s kiss.

“Can’t? Hmm?” Baili Jia Jue moved slightly. As if to rebut her, he did not even allow her to catch a gasp of breath before devouring her lips once more. His fingers slid into her clothes. He then said with his deep, slightly hoa.r.s.e voice, “But that’s not what your body is saying.”

It might have been because of his slightly cold fingers, or his words, Helian Wei Wei felt her legs turning into jelly, powerlessly enduring his kiss in his embrace. Her consciousness was starting to float elsewhere…

“Jue, listen to me…”

A sudden loud bang from outside woke both of them up from their indulgence.

Helian Wei Wei quickly pushed herself away. Seeing Tu Sufeng, she rubbed her lips with the back of her hand, her breath was still unstable. “I’m going out first, so you guys can talk.”

Baili Jia Jue was not even a little ashamed of being caught red-handed. He adjusted his collar before s.h.i.+fting his gaze onto Su Tufeng. “Please knock the door the next time you come in.”

Su Tufeng smiled sheepishly, “I thought a clean freak that’s afraid of even touching someone else like you would never be enlightened. But who could have thought…? Heh… how was it? Was it exciting doing it in the academy?”

“Not bad,” Baili Jia Jue sat on the princess consort’s chair with his legs crossed. Then he scoffed, “Not like someone who is forever alone like you could understand, though.”

Tu Sufeng felt a shot on his knees. His lips twitched, This cold fella is as venomous as always.

“What do you plan to do with Murong?” Tu Sufeng sat down to talk about business.

Baili Jia Jue’s lips were curved upward, but the smile in his eyes faded away. “Uproot them, of course. It’s time to show an example to those who do not like to listen, let them rest in peace.”

The rest of them really did because they did not expect Baili Jia Jue to survive.

They did not send reinforcements at that time because they thought Emperor Murong would succeed this time.

Sadly, they were on the unlucky side.

The people on the Fifth Prince’s side were almost exterminated.

When the queen’s brother started an uprising, the queen had also run out of luck. Her crown was taken away and she was locked away in a dungeon, never to see the sun again.

When Helian Guang Yao saw her, there was only remorse in his heart. He frowned looking at the spy that kneeled before him. “Who was the one who sent reinforcements for Third Prince, allowing him to escape?”

“I do not know, perhaps, being cautious, he set up a trap beforehand?” the guard replied.

“Then Murong was too careless this time.” When Helian Guang Yao heard that it was a trap, he did not ask further, but looked up, and said, “The clan meeting is about to begin. From today onward, watch the madam closely. Do not let her realize anything, I still have a use for the Su family.”

“Yes.” The spy looked down. He understood that the madam must not know anything about the master’s plan to prevent any disruption.

Helian Guang Yao stood up and was going to leave. “Another thing, send some gifts to the head of each family. Remind them to vote for me during the Clan Meeting.”

“As commanded.” Then, the spy raised his face again. “But there is a stubborn old guy that I cannot convince. He seemed determined to vote for the young lady.”

“I know who you are talking about, ignore him. He’s just an old comrade of my father. Now that his leg is broken, he can’t even stand firm. There will be 11 votes in the clan meeting. He alone cannot change the situation. Moreover, I have found someone who can contact the Hidden Army.” Helian Guang Yao sneered.

“The Hidden Army?” The spy looked up, his eyes were beaming with admiration. “Have you got into contact with the Hidden Army, master?”

Helian Guang Yao’s face was full of pride. “Yes, I am contacting them. To be absolutely safe, I want the b*stard to lose all intention to wrestle against me for power!”

“Excellent, master!” the spy praised him loudly.

Helian Guang Yao smiled and waved his sleeves confidently…

The night fell.

The wind was cool, and the stars were s.h.i.+ning.

Helian Wei Wei looked at the paper in her hand and put on an evil smile. “Tell Chi Yan this, since he wanted the Hidden Army so badly, give him one,” she told the messenger.

“Yes, Young Master.” When the messenger saw her smile, he knew that she was scheming something. Without another word, he leaped out of the White Academy with the message.

After finis.h.i.+ng her work, Helian Wei Wei decided to see the progress of the things she had asked Heize to prepare.

Right when she opened the door, she saw a pair of indifferent and narrow eyes, “Where to?”

“Just taking a walk.” Helian Wei Wei felt like it was not a good decision to look for Heize today, hence she quietly stepped back.

Baili Jia Jue smiled, his eyes turned dark brown, “Oh, really?”

“Yup,” Helian Wei Wei smiled, her expression was sincere.

Baili Jia Jue leaned on the door jamb lazily, his eyes caught the packing on her hands, “I didn’t know you have to bring this to take a walk.”
