“How is Shadow at fault for this incident?” Nangong Lie looked at Helian Wei Wei with a faint smile on his face. “It was I who brought this woman here if you want to blame someone, blame me. Tsk tsk tsk, looking identical truly has its advantage, otherwise, I wouldn’t have brought her before you. Ah Jue, how about this? Since I made this mess, I’ll settle it myself. I’ll bring her out of the palace right now. I think you and Lady Helian have a lot to talk about, so we won’t disturb you any further.”

As he was speaking, Nangong Lie began to extend his arm.

Baili Jia Jue glanced at him coldly.

That gaze, filled with warning left Nangong Lie’s hand stiffened by his side. “Ah Jue, if this won’t do, and that won’t do either, what do you want then?”

“I don’t want anything.” The young man’s voice was cold as he spoke nonchalantly. “It’s just that, no one can leave unharmed after touching me.”

Nangong Lie was startled. “Ah Jue, certainly you don’t mean it, after all, she only kissed you for an instant…”

“You may leave.” The young man’s unwavering tone interrupted Nangong Lie’s words.

Nangong Lie was dumbfounded. “Ah Jue, the reason I came to you this time is because of a formal matter, your red…”

“I don’t want to talk about formal matters today.” The young man smiled at him, but there was no warmth in his eyes. “Will you leave by yourself, or do I have to kick you out?”

Nangong Lie felt a tingle over his scalp, and he cleared his throat. “I’ll leave by myself, but under one condition.”

“Speak.” The young man frowned, with a slight hint of impatience, but because of his age, it looked very attractive on him.

“Lend me one of your death knights.” Nangong Lie smiled charmingly.

The young man did not look at him anymore. “Go and pick one yourself. It’s best for you to leave now.”

After getting what he wanted, Nangong Lie did not overstay his welcome a moment longer, throwing Helian Wei Wei a helpless look and disappearing immediately.

He had actually wanted to stay and watch the situation unfold, but there was no rush, after all, he had all the time to listen to gossip afterward…

It was as though Nangong Lie’s absence took away the only warmth left in the palace.

Fortunately, that short amount of time allowed Helian Wei Wei to catch her breath and compose her emotions.

The young girl had also noticed that something seemed off, and she reached out to tug on Baili Jia Jue’s sleeve. “Your Highness?”

Baili Jia Jue turned his head around, there was pleasantness in his tone. “Hmm?”

“Are you angry at me?” The young girl softened her voice.

The young man’s graceful side profile was full of gentleness. “Why would I be? I was just a little anxious.”

“I know, I won’t be reckless next time.” The young girl widened her eyes like she was a.s.suring him.

The young man nodded, he seemed to spoil her very much.

Watching this scene before her, Helian Wei Wei was expressionless. All she felt was cold, she was cold the whole time.

She was thinking that maybe she should leave first.

To find a corner to tend to her wound or something, and then returned to fight because it was hurting so much that she had a little trouble breathing properly.

The young girl felt uneasy, probably because there was someone else here, and she looked toward Helian Wei Wei’s direction constantly.

The young man also noticed her gaze, and he said calmly, “You should go back as well, I’ll deal with this situation.”

The young girl did not want to leave. She did not understand why, but she had felt uneasy ever since she met this woman who looked just like herself.

The difference was that this woman was more mature than herself, and… she had never seen anyone like her, who remained unfazed even when His Highness was enraged.

“Lady Wei Wei, allow me to guide you out.” Shadow naturally understood his master’s intentions, and he walked to the young girl’s side, trying to lead her.

The girl lifted her gaze, her beautiful eyes s.h.i.+ning as she looked at Baili Jia Jue. “She didn’t do it on purpose, Your Highness. Please don’t treat her too harshly.”

“Don’t worry, I know you don’t like bloodshed.” The young man seemed very caring, smiling at her. “Go along with Shadow now.”

The young girl finally nodded, yet she could not help but turn and look at Helian Wei Wei once more.
