Chapter 124: Exasperate His Highness

Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud

"What do you feel the reason was?" Baili Jia Jue's fingers stiffened. His posture was cold as he watched her. The tone of his voice was indifferent just like it was previously.

Wei Wei's eyebrows raised. She naturally didn't know, that's why she asked.

"Inside that brain of yours, if there wasn't straw, then there must be soybean pulp." Along with Baili Jia Jue's mocking tone of voice, there was also a hint of sensuality. "Of course it was because the color of your skin left a rather deep impression on people. Otherwise, what reason would there be? Even men are not as dark as you."

Wei Wei glared at him. This Third Prince really was too, too, too, not cute!

She merely asked one more question. Did he have to go so far as to deliver a personal attack? After making fun of her IQ, he even mocked her skin...

Watching that little head lowering, the ends of Baili Jia Jue's mouth couldn't help but curved up into a demonically cool smile. "However, victory is interesting."

Interesting?

He-he.

The corners of Wei Wei's mouth twitched. Did he think he was choosing a mascot?

"Since you were the one who came up with the idea, then you should abide by the agreement." Baili Jia Jue's voice sounded out again. "This Highness doesn't like people who doesn't abide by the rules. After returning to the capital, at the martial qi competition there, you need to use all of your effort. Old grandfather is still very astute."

Wei Wei laughed lightly. "Don't worry, Your Highness. Since I'm already cooperating to become Third Prince Consort, of course I wouldn't cause you to lose face."

"Don't undervalue yourself." Baili Jia Jue said softly. Because the two of them were separated by a very small distance, his breath, in that way, gently hit her behind the ear and a burst of limpness and numbness struck her. "Just be yourself and it'll be fine. This Highness' face still won't be lost or what not."

Hm?

Wei Wei's pair of eyes looked up slowly. It was clearly just a few simple words, yet they gave rise to something a bit different in her heart.

"Just be yourself and it'll be fine."

Based on this sentence alone, Wei Wei resolved to coexist as peacefully as possible with Baili Jia Jue in the future. In any case, she still had a backup plan. Only as a last resort would she use it.

"Understand?" Baili Jia Jue looked down at her. His thick eyelashes cast an enchanting shadow. As she looked up, she actually saw the outline of his resolute thin lips, beautiful yet no less domineering. "Since you've understood everything, then let's set out now."

"So fast?" Wei Wei's shapely eyebrows raised. Her money had still not been collected. "We can't. I still have something to do."

Baili Jia Jue slowed his footsteps. "What thing?"

"A few personal matters." Wei Wei certainly wasn't willing to disclose every inside information to Baili Jia Jue, not because she had to guard against him, but rather from the beginning, she and Hei Ze had already agreed that the matter of them opening shop would not be disclosed to anyone else. She came to Armament City mainly in order to meet up with Hei Ze. Even if they were to leave, it'd still need to wait until she'd properly make business arrangements before leaving.

Baili Jia Jue glanced at her, his tone of voice was level. "One day. I'll only give you a day's time."

"You also want to stay?" Wei Wei knitted her brows. "That won't be too safe, you know."
