The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 417
Chapter 417: A Bouquet Of Flowers As The First Step For Wei Wei To Court His Highness
Baili Jie Jue knew that he had tortured her tremendously. However, he could not deny that he enjoyed the process very much. Initially, he attempted to be gentle. But, he failed to suppress his ruthlessness and lust the moment he touched her body.
He even had the urge to pull her neck and bite her throat, just to have a taste of her blood. He wondered if her blood was sweet too…
No, I can’t do that!
Baili Jia Jue held his hands together, reminding himself to remain composed. She will not want to see an insane man who only knows how to kill.
Baili Jia Jue took a deep breath as he toned down the demon underneath his red eyes. He reached out to stroke Helian Wei Wei’s hair before he pecked her on her forehead.
Followed by that, he put on a ghastly grin.
Even if I don’t like her, I will keep her by my side.
The leaves rustled.
The branches swayed along with the night wind.
The Green Dragon that was lying dormant under the lake seemed to have sensed something. It made an abrupt turn and agitated the entire lake.
The man in white took a step backward as fresh blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Panicked, the little one with a bottle gourd on his back gritted his teeth as he cried, “Master!”
“I’m alright.” The man in white wiped the corner of his mouth with his finger while his eyes turned dim.
The little one grimaced, “What’s wrong with the Green Dragon? It has been acting well before this. Maybe, it refuses to be tamed?”
The man in white remained silent. A hint of indecipherable emotion was painted across his black and slim eyes.
The Green Dragon continued to writhe under the water with its crimson yet misty eyes.
Master…
Master…
It seemed to have sensed its master’s aura…
“Master, is that you?”
The Green Dragon said within its consciousness. Yet, it was answered with dead silence.
Alongside the quietness was complete loneliness.
How can he be the master?
If he’s the master, he’ll definitely receive my message through my consciousness.
It decided to give up its hope.
It closed its eyes and returned to the bottom of the lake.
When Helian Wei Wei woke up the next day, she felt as though her two legs no longer belonged to her. When she stepped on the floor, her legs felt weak. However, she felt way better than before and her body felt warm and comfortable.
Yuan Ming reminded her in the Fantasy Space, “Woman, hurry up and test your martial Qi. Check if you’re finally able to generate your martial Qi.”
Helian Wei Wei gently acknowledged him before she lifted one of her hands to feel the airflow in her stomach. She exerted some force and broke the cups on the table into bits.
Back then, she was only capable of controlling the wind and water. She did not foresee that her martial Qi would be materialized one day just like the others.
“Your man is definitely the best booster for magic practitioners!” Yuan Ming said with his demonic tone that carried a hint of excitement, “If things continue to progress with this pace, you only have to repeat this a few times before you can fully recuperate! Hehe. The Third Price is certainly not a normal human being!”
Helian Wei Wei threw a glimpse at him. “Don’t say this in front of him even if this is really the case.” The prince would not be pleased to be utilized as a ‘tool’.
Being a bossy president, the first thing she had to do was to court him.
He was technically and officially her husband.
But, his face was too alluring and would definitely attract many other women.
Moreover, it was apparent that the prince had not been involved in a relationship before.
He was more insensible than her.
To court a man, she needed an elaborated plan.
Helian Wei Wei recalled her conversation with the prince yesterday. He seemed to be the least interested in knowing whether she was a possessed woman.
From his reaction back then, he seemingly had had a clue about what was going on.
Helian Wei Wei smiled. That’s right. I cannot hide anything from him if he’s determined to find out about my background.
It seems like a better choice for me to court him.
Thinking of that, Helian Wei Wei ordered her maids, telling them to bring Little Seven over.
“Do you know what’s your Third Brother’s favorite pastime?”
Helian Wei Wei asked as she opened a book to read.
Little Seven held the steamed bun, the bribery from his Third Aunt, and took a big bite out of it. He glanced through the book in his Third Aunt’s hands and was shocked to see the title of the book.
What is this? 108 Ways to Court Your ‘Wife’?
“Third Aunt, you should stop reading all these books with strange titles. They’re not good for you,” Little Seven said with a mischievous expression.
Helian Wei Wei tapped the table with her finger and replied, “You only have to answer my question.”
“Hmm!” Little Seven raised his head as he mulled over the questions, “Third Brother’s hobby is sleeping.”
Helian Wei Wei curled her lips, “Other than that?”
“Killing!” Little Seven said excitedly, “Third Brother grins from ear to ear whenever he kills!”
Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless. Do you not have a normal answer to my question?
“Forget it. I’ll just follow what this book teaches.” Helian Wei Wei kept the book in her sleeve and put on a handsome smile. “First of all, we need a bouquet of fresh flowers.”
She had made up her mind.
Later that day in the public, Helian Wei Wei walked toward Baili Jia Jue with a bouquet of roses in her arms as she wore an enchanting curl on her lips.
The prince, who was working, raised his head to threw a nonchalant glance at her. Then, he pulled her by her hand and wiped it clean with his handkerchief. He said in an indifferent tone, “Stop carrying around weird things like this. They are dirty.”
Helian Wei Wei did not know how to reply.
Dirty?
So, he thinks that the roses are dirty?
Haha.
Indeed, the prince was not like any other human.
But… she had no plan to give up so easily!
The Third Prince was unexpectedly a difficult man. However, that triggered Helian Wei Wei’s competitiveness. She was ready to strike again.
In fact, Nangong Lie was dumbfounded by the scene. He had seen a man who remained pure albeit living among the ladies. But, he had never met a woman who tried to court a man by sending him flowers.
Furthermore, it was not normal flowers but roses…
Nangong Lie stared at the beautiful red flowers as he extended his hand, intending to touch the flowers.
But, he was scared and stunned by Baili Jia Jue’s fierce gaze.
His gaze was chilling cold.
“Are you allowed to touch my things?” Baili Jia Jue approached him and grabbed the bouquet of roses in his arms. A hint of gentleness and joy flashed across his thin eyes.
The accursed Nangong Lie could not move an inch. He could only yell as Baili Jia Jue walked away, “Look at how you pretended to be unmoved. You’re actually very pleased with this.”
“So, what?” Baili Jia Jue toyed with the petals of vibrant colors as his eyes beamed evilly, “You can also ask Qing Zhan to gift you a bouquet of roses.”
Nangong Lie was stupefied by Baili Jia Jue’s words.
After a while, he asked again, “Ah Jue, why don’t you tell her if you like her?”
“I want to see what comes after this.” Baili Jia Jue placed the roses by his nose and sniffed the fragrant flowers. His grin and pretty face were extremely captivating.
Nangong Lie twitched the corner of his lips. What’s wrong with this man?
He’s so shameless!
