Chapter 868 (1/2)
However, seeing Baili Jia Jue like this, Helian Wei Wei was even more uneasy.
Only that her uneasiness was hidden deep down in her heart.
Even Baili Jia Jue was unaware of it.
Both of them then returned to the palace.
The Battle of Capital became famous all of a sudden.
The scholars and military officials were kneeling in the great hall, with their wide sleeves spread on the bright marble floor and their heads on the ground. They were shouting, “Welcome back to the palace, Your Highness!”
This year was indeed the most glorious year of the War Dragon Empire.
The Retired Emperor’s illness was not a big deal. Instead, after being possessed by the ghostly aura and Wei Wei had exorcised the evil from him, the violence in him had reduced significantly, extending his life for a few more years.
However, surprisingly Nangong Lie was not in the palace.
After all, if he was there, the Capital would be safe from such a big mess.
Only after careful questioning that they knew, Nangong Lie was sent personally to the Hidden Spirit Temple by the Retired Emperor to invite the master over, because he was worried about Baili Jia Jue and Helian Wei Wei who had gone to the ancient tomb. Now it seemed no longer necessary.
The Capital became peaceful once again. The aura of resentment that had once shrouded the palace was also cleared.
The seal was enhanced. Although some demons and evil spirits would occasionally appear in the world, it was still a lot more peaceful than the previous chaotic state.
Upon seeing this, Helian Wei Wei thought of letting Baili Jia Jue bond with the babies again.
After their meals, she pulled his hand over and placed it on her stomach.
Baili Jia Jue left her to play with it. Sometimes he held her just like that with one of his hands holding a scroll and another one caressing her belly, as if he was stroking a fox.
Unfortunately, this fox could not roll on the ground.
Baili Jia Jue put down the scroll to free up one of his hands. He then hugged her in his arms, with a deep voice and a smile in his eyes, “Would you like me to teach you about chess?”
“I don’t want to play chess recently.” Helian Wei Wei grabbed his hand and played with it for a while. Then she suddenly thought of something and let out a grin, “Got it.”
Baili Jia Jue was hugging her as he raised his brows, “What?”
“Let’s do facial masks together, cool?” The smile at the corner of Helian Wei Wei’s mouth was getting even more obvious, “Your face will definitely look interesting with a facial mask.”
Baili Jia Jue refused to answer. He rejected straight away by taking a sip from the teacup, “It’s a woman’s thing again.”
“What’s a woman’s thing? In my world, a man will apply a facial mask too, alright.” Helian Wei Wei was intrigued by her own idea. She did not have a boyfriend in the modern world, so she had never imagined that one day she would live with someone for so long.
Maybe, she could not even imagine that any man would pamper her like this.
Sometimes, she would feel so lucky suddenly.
That she had met such a man.
Besides having a wicked tongue, he was brutal and cold-blooded yet elegant. He had betrayed everyone and was uncontrollable, but he had tied his Red String on her hand.
He would still ridicule her and take pleasure in attacking her with words.
He always knocked on her head and said she was stupid.
However, he would take good care of her while she was asleep.
