The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 48: Agreeing To The Consort Selection

“Ah Jue, I can’t not remind you of something. You are still Dragon War Empire’s prince!” Don’t pretend excessively. He was getting indigestion from watching all that! Even the hairs on his body were shuddering along with him.

Baili Jia Jue took a glance at him and again recovered his previous ice-cold self-disciplined appearance, as he immediately left the hall.

Nangong Lie looked left and right, “Speaking of which. Where did that girl go? How come she still hasn’t returned after so long?”

The students were taking a break outside the hall. A young girl heard Nangong Lie’s words and bashfully answered, “Is the one you’re asking about Helian Wei Wei?”

“Huh? You know?” Nangong Lie smiled, as smoothly as water.

The redness on her face didn’t lessen as she softly said, “There were people who just saw Lord Murong’s servant boy looking for her. She should have gone to the Commerce Plaza on a date. Afterall, she liked Lord Murong for so long. She may have spoken firmly in front of people, but is probably thinking of ways to reconcile in the shadows. If you want to look for her, you could go to the Commerce Plaza to take a look.”

Baili Jia Jue’s long and slender fingers paused and calmly listened. His face didn’t have the slightest expression.

“Since they’re reconciling, it’s not good to disturb them.” Nangong Lie turned around while looking up and smiled as he said, “See, what did I say? ! Loosening the reins in order to grasp them tighter! That girl did a good job of playing hard to get.”

After having heard this, the scrap metal in Baili Jia Jue’s hand slightly shifted as layers of netlike cracks covered its surface.

Nangong Lie looked at him strangely, “Ah Jue?”

“Mm.” Baili Jia Jue’s tone of voice responded levelly, his face appearing indifferent.

Nangong Lie touched his nose and didn’t know why, but he had felt that Ah Jue just seemed to have been a bit angry.

Baili Jia Jue stopped paying attention to him and unhurriedly left the compound. His long and slender figure quickly disappeared into the hazy horizon as dusk falls.

“Your Highness.” When no one was around, Shadow came down from the treetop and his knee settled upon the ground.

Baili Jia Jue’s eyes lightly swept past the person on bended knee. His voice was chilly, “Inform the imperial troops to wait for me at the base of the mountain.”

“Yes!” Shadow paused a bit before dropping his eyes to receive the order. A bit of astonishment streaked through his eyes. During these few days, His Highness has been playing hide and seek with Retired Emperor. Now he wanted to notify the imperial troops and have them wait at the foot of the mountain.

Is he ……agreeing to the consort selection? ? ?

Sunset. People were busily flowing through the Commerce Plaza.

The servant who was dressed like a schoolboy lifted his chin slightly as he looked at Wei Wei, appearing like he was already doing her a big favor by coming to look for her, “Helian Wei Wei, my young master already said that he’s going to let bygones be bygones. You should think it over carefully. If the engagement is cancelled, there won’t be anymore room to turn things around.”

“Are you done talking?” Wei Wei’s face was cool. Her voice wasn’t rushed or slow, “If you’re done talking, then hurry and get the hell out of here.”

This little servant certainly wasn’t unfamiliar to her. That year, he followed closely by Murong Chang Feng and had always been haughty, never saluting the misses from prestigious families when he encountered them. She could even say that it’s become a habit!
