Chapter 550: Gentleness Of The Prince

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

“Crown prince?” The emperor laughed maliciously. “He will never become the crown prince without my agreement!”

This night, there would be no peace at the Sunrise Hall.

Eunuch Gao dragged his aching body away in silence. Who could have understood the pain in his heart? He had served the emperor for at least 30 years, yet even now, he was still seen as nothing more than livestock.

“From what I see, I think the emperor is getting impatient.” Nangong Lie, who had been staying in the Holy Worship Temple all this while, immediately brought the news to Baili Jia Jue after he received it. “Ah Jue, I think that there must be more to this incident. Please be on high alert for these few days. Even though His Majesty has been incompetent and obsessed with elixirs since the last couple of years, the palace still belongs to him.”

Baili Jia Jue sat with his legs propped up on a wooden chair, his handsome face plastered with its usual icy coldness.

Nangong Lie did not attempt to advise him any further. After all, there was no one that he understood more than Baili Jia Jue.

When he was young, the empress had never been fond of Ah Jue.

Now that he had grown up…

Even the emperor was wary of him.

Nangong Lie shook his head and heaved a deep sigh in his heart.

When he left, it was already late into the night.

Baili Jia Jue returned to his chamber, bringing with him the chill of the night mist. All of the servants could notice the coldness in his eyes, therefore they quickly lowered their heads and stood aside.

When he approached his bed, the ice in his eyes finally thawed.

It was all because of the person who lied there in the cage.

Her wrists were restrained by metal chains, but she could still fall into a deep slumber. Next to her was an empty space, like it was left for him.

If it were somebody else in the cage, they would probably be unable to tolerate his peculiarities by now.

She was the only one who could.

Baili Jia Jue felt a certain warmth blossom in his heart. He climbed into bed and pulled her into his arms.

Helian Wei Wei was very docile in her sleep, allowing Baili Jia Jue to manipulate her body however he liked until she was leaning against him. He wrapped his arms around Helian Wei Wei’s waist, as if it was only natural for him to do so.

Baili Jia Jue’s lips curled devilishly. Then, he pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head.

Right now, she felt completely at ease around him. Her guard was finally down.

Previously, to have her belong to him, he went against his usual principles and claimed her hand in marriage. All of that, just to get her into his bed.

When they first got married, she was still wary of him. Although they were sleeping in the same bed, she kept leaning against the wall, refusing to touch him at all. Now, she had become so compliant that he could not help but love her even more.

This proved that patience and some scheming were needed to take care of a cunning animal like a fox.

“Ugh…” Helian Wei Wei shifted slightly, disturbed by the chill of his body. The fair skin of her stomach was exposed to the air, rising and falling gently with the breaths that she took, making her seem like a defenseless little animal. “Is it already morning?”

Baili Jia Jue felt like he was an outstanding caretaker indeed. He pulled her over and patted her back lightly, speaking with a voice as low and smooth as a pre-recorded lullaby, “Not yet, you can go back to sleep.”

“Wake me up when the sun’s up. I’ll make you some bean…” Her voice faded away as she spoke, so the last few words she said was murmured inaudibly.

Baili Jia Jue gazed down at her, his lips softening into a faint smile.

The moonlight shone through the wooden windows, casting light on the pair that clung to each other in their sleep. Anyone who saw this scene would definitely think that they were a match made in heaven indeed…

“Achoo!”

Who knew if it was because she woke up too early, but Helian Wei Wei sneezed loudly upon getting out of bed. As a result, her foot jerked suddenly and kicked the headboard, sending waves of pain up her leg.

Baili Jia Jue was standing by the window with a cream-colored towel in his hands when this happened. Upon hearing the commotion, he turned to look at Helian Wei Wei, whose neck was stretched tantalizingly as she tried to survey the damage. He beckoned in a deep, low voice, “Come here.”

Helian Wei Wei swallowed instinctively and turned her head aside as she asked, “Why should I?”

“Let me look at your feet,” Baili Jia Jue coaxed as he handed his towel to a servant who was standing by the side.

Helian Wei Wei made a noise of agreement as she bent down to put on her shoes. However, before she could do that, a hand curled around her waist and hoisted her upward. When she realized what was happening, she was already lifted up to sit on the sandalwood vanity.

Baili Jia Jue caged her in, his arms pressing down on both sides of her body. He leaned down, capturing her eyes in his mesmerizing gaze, his low voice murmuring softly, “Lift up your leg.”

In this kind of position?

Of course, Helian Wei Wei would never do that. She looked at him and protested, “It doesn’t hurt, it was just a light knock.”

“It got all red just from a light knock?” Baili Jia Jue pressed in even closer, practically forcing her into a corner. His presence was overpowering, so much so that Helian Wei Wei could not ignore him even if she wanted to. Perhaps it was due to the morning glow of the sun, which made his face look even more stunning and defined than usual.

Helian Wei Wei realized that she finally got to witness what was known as a self-beautifying filter. People who looked like a certain prince would definitely be thought to be a succubus, no matter where they went.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you want me to continue what I was doing last night?” Baili Jia Jue drawled into her ear. His voice was low and seductive, with a hint of amusement.

Helian Wei Wei felt her heart skip a beat. She tried to push him away, but he countered it by pressing down even more on her.

Baili Jia Jue tilted his head slightly and closed the distance between them. The nearer his eyes were, the faster her heart raced.

Helian Wei Wei grasped his clothes tightly as she leaned backward. “Wait…”

“Hm?” Baili Jia Jue did not give her any chance to escape. He freed his right hand and curled it around the back of her head, which was followed by his lips imprinting onto hers.

The slightly chilly sensation and the familiar scent of sandalwood intoxicated her.

Helian Wei Wei panted softly as he pulled her completely into his arms. When he started to pepper her neck with kisses, she finally extended a hand to stop him. “Hold on, I still need to make bean paste buns for you and Little Seven.When he wakes up later, it would be ready for both of you to eat together. Don’t you like bean paste buns? You can have it as a filler before lunch.”

Upon hearing that, Baili Jia Jue loosened his grip. He observed the beautiful face in front of him as he pondered on what she said.

When did he say that he liked bean paste buns?

She’s making assumptions again.

Although that was true, but when the Third Prince got his hands on those bean paste buns, he ate more of them than anyone else. This was enough to prove that the buns were indeed to his taste.

After everyone had their fill, the leftovers were taken away by Little Seven. He held a bun in his right hand, a pair of chopsticks in his left, while another bun was stuffed into his mouth. He sat in front of Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue, with a sitting posture that was as dominating as ever.

Eunuch Sun took the opportunity to mention the imperial officials who were requesting a presence with Baili Jia Jue. He wanted the prince to meet them so that they could be of some help to him in the future.

Baili Jia Jue looked at the crumbs on Little Seven’s face, his brows furrowing lightly. Then, he answered in his usual apathetic tone, “Reject all of them.”

Eunuch Sun was stunned for a moment. Then, he lowered his voice and said, “But there are military officials among them…”
