“Master, where are we going?” Based on His Highness’ usual habits, at this time, he’d take a bath.

However, today…

Shadow raised his head and turned to glance within Baili Jia Jue’s embrace and couldn’t help but stare blankly.

That, was that a girl?

Shadow almost suspected that he was seeing things as he fiercely rubbed his eyes.

In other people’s view, His Highness had always been graceful and honorable, like a god. After all, there was also a halo above his head as an imperial heir.

However, only Shadow knew, how ice-cold and difficult to approach Master was when no one was around.

Especially when he disguised himself as a different identity in order to enter White Academy, he seemed polite as he wandered among people’s gazes, but in reality, no one had ever entered his world.

His innate apathy, this was the real Highness.

There was a year when he was receiving foreign guests. A neighboring country’s princess also got drunk, and took advantage of her tipsiness to insist that His Highness personally supported her.

That princess was indeed a bit rude and unreasonable, didn’t listen to anybody’s advice, and even seized the opportunity to wrap herself around His Highness’ arm.

On the second day, His Highness set up a scheme to have that princess married off to the most distant and barren place.

The reason was that His Highness couldn’t stand his favorite clothes catching the smell of alcohol, because of that princess.

At the time, Retired Emperor was so angry, he almost had people hold His Highness down and fiercely give him a beating. But no one knew of his scheme, besides His Highness’ closest servants and the Retired Emperor, who saw through it. In the end, Retired Emperor, as we’ve seen, couldn’t bear to punish His Highness, and had His Highness dragged to his side to hear a lecture full of meaningful and heartfelt words.

His Highness listened to it from beginning to end, then finally curved his lips upwards. “A girl who rubbed herself back and forth on me, how would Imperial Grandfather have me be polite to her? Heh, that I haven’t taken her life, could be considered good already.”

However, today, His Highness unexpectedly took the initiative to carry a woman.

Shadow hardly dared to believe it.

When Baili Jia Jue was trying to go through the door while carrying Wei Wei horizontally, his fingers moved to the side, like he was afraid to bruise the woman in his embrace.

When Shadow wanted to step forward and help him support Wei Wei’s slanted body, Baili Jia Jue eyes coldly swept his gaze through him. As if the gaze slashed at him, he then withdrew his hand and respectfully stood to the side.

Baili Jia Jue retraced his gaze, his voice level. “Withdraw.”

Shadow originally wanted to stay by his side to help him. After all, His Highness had never attended to other people before. However, when he saw Baili Jia Jue rotate the palm of his hand around Wei Wei’s head and supported her whole body in a careful and gentle manner, Shadow silently retreated away.

“I say, Ah Jue, why did you leave after only drinking half way.” The matchless wickedly smiling Nangong Lie came from a distance, saw the person in his embrace, and raised the corner of his eyebrows. “Oh? This girl’s face looks pretty good this way.”

After saying that, Nangong Lie was going to use his hand to push aside the fringes of Wei Wei’s hair, so that he could take a serious, clear look at her.
