Chapter 257 - Wei Weis Backup Plan (2/2)
Helian Wei Wei was keenly aware of the meaning in his words: ” What do you mean by saying this?”
Hei Ze wanted to speak.
There was a roar from the wall: “That foul boy! Where has he gone again now!”
Hei Ze’s expression changed and pressed his forehead like he had a headache: “I will go first. See you another day.”
“Okay.” Helian Wei Wei held back a smile. The scene of the overbearing young master looking deflated was great.
As she was deep in thought, she was about to turn around when she heard footsteps behind her. Crunching in the snow, the sound was so obvious.
Not sure if it was the air from the approaching person was so strong, or the night wind was blowing harder, but the cool air cause the bones to become frozen stiff, and Helian Wei Wei could not help but s.h.i.+vered.
She looked back and saw Baili Jia Jue stood at the corner of the street, his long robes blew in the strong wind. In the black velvet night, under the moonlit sky, it cast an empty cage shadow against him, his clothes were like old used ones from last year, woollen bobbles on its surface.
He looked at her, his eyes cold and exquisite, like a vampire prince who had just stepped out of a painting, the side of his silver face was like broken ice, exquisite and perfect.
Helian Wei Wei’s fingers were stiff, especially under the ice-like sight. She believed that if it were someone else, they would also feel the cold.
However, she did not know how much of the conversation did His Highness overhear…..
Baili Jia Jue spoke, his voice faint like ice flowing, directed at Shadow by his side: “Go to Old Master Hei, in regards to the arranged marriage Grandfather has for the Nalan family seventh daughter, ask Old Master Hei if a suitable candidate has been chosen yet.”
“Yes.” Shadow retreated.
Helian Wei Wei frowned, an arranged marriage for the seventh daughter of the Nalan family? Is this his way of forcing Hei Ze to his death?
Looks like his childhood sweetheart is the seventh daughter of the Nalan family.
“I thought that you should be in the boudoir at this time waiting to be married, not appearing by the wall of the Hei family residence.” The low, steady, slightly magnetic hoa.r.s.e voice rang, like golden quicksand slowly slipping over her ear, with the same texture as a cold metal.
Helian Wei Wei did not know how to respond.
“You’ve come out when it is so late, did you not think that once I could not find you at the academy, I would look everywhere else for you?”
This time, his background was that of a lush forest, the green and black pigments mixed together in the dark night melancholy.
This man should be a negotiator, his methods were not the same as his handsome appearance. Don’t be misled by his elegance, this kind of person did not use mediocre methods.
For example, now, Helian Wei Wei felt like she had done something wrong.
Speaking of which, she really should not have come out three days before the big wedding.
However, does this mean that her conversation with Hei Ze earlier was not overheard by him.
Baili Jia Jue looked at her, if it weren’t because it was confirmed there was nothing between the two of them, if it weren’t because he had tested Hei Ze and knew that he was unable to let go of his childhood sweetheart, when he saw the scene before him..
He was afraid that he would have killed Hei Ze.
No one can touch his prey.
Moreover when it is deep in the night.
And, it’s so late, why did she come to look for Hei Ze?
Even if something had happened, should she not come to look for him, her fiance instead?
