The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 230
Chapter 230: Belong Only to Him
Yes, she did not fancy him, she even said after their marriage he was free to be with someone else. That was because she already fancied Hei Ze.
If he were to let her go now, he was sure that in time, Old Master Hei would agree to their marriage. She will slowly forget about him, her master while she basked in her happy life. Of course, before she settled down with another man, he could make her stay with him forever.
Baili Jia Jue was always calm and elegant. However, in this moment, he had lost all reason.
Snap!
The sound of a chair moving.
Baili Jia Jue had already strode over to Hei Ze’s back, blocked him, and pulled Helian Wei Wei up with one hand. He could hardly control himself and was about to reveal to the public his true colours. Helian Wei Wei was about to ask Hei Ze why he shoved her, when she heard Hei Ze say in surprise: “Third Prince?!”
Helian Wei Wei raised her head immediately and saw who had held her. Baili Jia Jue’s eyes were dark with anger, and he stared frostily at Hei Ze. Of all the people in the world, the one he stared at had to be the one who did not fear him.
Hei Ze raised his eyebrows and smiled widely: “Your Highness, have you also heard about our auction and come to join us on this special occasion?”
“Hei Ze, go back first. I have some matters to discuss with Third Prince.” Helian Wei Wei wanted to lure him away. After all, the Third Prince had said before that he did not want to see her with Hei Ze, and she violated that condition of the contract.
At this point, realisation hit Hei Za, he pointed at Helian Wei Wei: “You are not crying, you were just fooling me!”
Baili Jia Jue listened to the bickering of those two people, the smile on the corners of his lips were frozen. He had not given Helian Wei Wei a chance to speak but instead embraced her into his arms and pulled her into the elegant room at the side. All the armaments at the auction seemed to be shaken by a big force and a faint light shone from them all.
“What is going on here?” Everyone looked at the armaments they had brought with them in wonder.
At this point, the fire qilin had suddenly appeared in stealth next to Baili Jia Jue: “Master, you need to calm down. If you can’t control your martial qi, your blood flow will go backwards through your body. Your memory and soul are not completely complete, if you continue this way, you will show your true form.”
“Roar!”
It was unsure whose beast had made a low-pitched roar, as if they had sensed an unprecedented danger. Their true form showed on the spot in the auction house and was violently thrashing about. The fire qilin saw how bad the situation became, flew over to the spirit beast and glared at it in the eye then looked back.
The wooden door of the elegant room already had cracks from when Baili Jia Jue used his martial qi. Helian Wei Wei felt that something was not right and wanted to push him away. Upon seeing this, the coldness from Baili Jia Jue’s face became more and more intense. He did not control his own power and shoved Helian Wei Wei onto the soft couch.
Jingle!
The noise was loud.
Helian Wei Wei felt dizzy and was bent over from the pain in her back. Her gaze sharp like a blade: “Baili Jia Jue, are you crazy?”
Baili Jia Jue did not speak nor did he move. He stood gracefully in the darkness with coolness in his gaze. The few spirit beasts outside seemed to be suffering from some severe punishment. They held their heads and were writhing around, rolling back and forth on the floor. The crowd was stunned.
Helian Wei Wei stood up and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Baili Jia Jue looked at her and suddenly became stiff. He admitted that he had always been a cold and ruthless person. Only this time, even he hated his own innate strength. He had not wanted to hurt her. However, during the sudden surge of martial qi, there were many memories flowing through his brain that did not seem to belong to him…
Those tyrant elders in long robes shouting at him “Monster!”
He could not calm his thoughts. Helian Wei Wei frowned and reached out, but was cut by strong martial qi. She looked up at Baili Jia Jue astonished, red fire surging from his left shoulder and regret in his eyes.
[Don’t use the look used for monsters to look at his Highness! Baili Jia Jue’s fingers slammed hard!]
“Bam!”
The wooden beam above his head cracked even more.
Helian Wei Wei jumped up, and with no shackles, had grabbed the arrogant man from behind with her bare hands. She rolled them into a safe position. The martial qi around him disappeared instantly and everything was calm. The beam had been broken but did not collapse. The spirit beasts seemed comforted and curled up licking their paws, as if unaware of what had just happened.
Baili Jia Jue looked at the face close to his, her warm breath on his nose.
Helian Wei Wei breathlessly asked him: “What is going on? Are you trying to destroy my armament shop? If so, you should also pay attention and protect yourself, your Highness.”
Baili Jia Jue looked surprised, he suddenly smiled, reached out and stroked the side of Helian Wei Wei’s face. So delicate and mesmerizing. This was — the prey he fell for. She always took him by surprise.
Protection?
Oh, the word sounded unconstrained. But it was fine, he liked it very much. It was just….. This was not enough.
Helian Wei Wei looked at his expression and sighed: “Well, I only met with Hei Ze today is because we are joint owners of this armament shop. I forgot to tell you. But you don’t mind, do you?”
“You avoided shadow these few days, just so that you could meet him alone, you opened your shop and never told me.” Baili Jia Jue asked coldly: ” Is it because deep down, you never intended to tell me? Helian Wei Wei, how much more have you been keeping from me? Or is it because you do not trust me, and you’re giving yourself an escape plan?”
Helian Wei Wei felt a little guilty after she heard all this. She had not given this much thought, but deep down she was subconsciously trying to create a distance between Baili Jia Jue and herself. She felt that it was not a good idea for two people to become so close. Now that she was caught out by Baili Jia Jue, she had nothing to hide: “That’s right, I am giving myself an escape plan.”
Baili Jia Jue looked at the hands that held him down and just sighed: “Okay, I understand.” and resumed his usual cold expression.
Helian Wei Wei had thought that the Third Prince was more intelligent and better at communication. As long as it was all out in the open, he would accept it gracefully. However, what Helian Wei Wei did not know was that while she smiled at Baili Jia Jue, he had already made a decision. He was going to destroy all her escape plans! Then … she would belong only to him.
