Chapter 940 - 936 (1/2)

Actually, Helian Wei Wei roughly knew what was going on, but she did not take it seriously. To her, this was merely a unique way of interaction between father and son.

Although the way they communicated with each other was somewhat different…

“One, two, three, 10!” Inside the house, the little one was holding his head cooly and kicking hard as he performed the forward jump.

Looking at him languidly, Baili Jia Jue leaned against the door with his legs crossed, “You little imp, who taught you that 10 is after three? Baili Shangxie, are you challenging my intelligence?”

“I thought you’d be less harsh after you’ve found Imperial Mother.” Baili Shangxie hummed coldly. The way he talked mid-jump somehow made him look stylish and adorable at the same time.

Baili Jia Jue looked down and flipped through the doc.u.ments in his hands. He seemed unaffected by his son’s accusation. “Well, it turns out to be your illusion. And don’t think I have no idea what’s on your mind. This is considered a lenient punishment for you relative to what you’ve done, interrupting my plans and deprecating me all this while. Continue your jumps, you have 80 more to go.”

Baili Shangxie whined and went on holding his little head as he resumed his jumps.

Soon, ten minutes had pa.s.sed. It was only then did Baili Jia Jue put on his sungla.s.ses and take Baili Shangxie’s hand in his as he led him down for dinner.

Baili Shangxie found hand-holding to be rather intolerable.

Baili Jia Jue tossed him a flat look. “Do you want to let your Imperial Mother know that we are not getting along too well?”

You just always use Imperial Mother as an excuse to pressure me! Baili Shangxie was very disdainful about his Imperial Father’s shamelessness, but at the same time, he did not want to show anything bad in front of his Imperial Mother and brother. In fact, it was undeniable that this father-son duo was good at acting.

The food served at the inn was very delicious, which was highly recommended on the Internet. They were even considerate enough to prepare some barley tea for their customers.

Helian Wei Wei ordered a table of dishes and placed Little Qingchen on the soft seat.

Little Qingchen’s dining etiquette had always been quite good. Taking his own small bowl and chopsticks, he wore a white napkin in front of his clothes. He even took the initiative to set up his brother’s tableware when he saw Baili Shangxie approaching.

Baili Shangxie was not particularly fond of human food. Basically, he would not be eating any of these except for chocolate and ice cream.

Demons were slightly better than the Blood Tribe in the sense that they could still consume ordinary food, whereas the Blood Tribe could not ingest anything other than fresh blood. Apart from that, they were also susceptible to sunlight.

Baili Shangxie hated sunlight as well and it seemed like the same was true for his Imperial Father. There was a certain price to pay in order to travel through the s.p.a.ce-time gap. Imperial Father would especially suffer a greater loss since he was the one who tore the s.p.a.ce-time continuum open.

Nevertheless, Imperial Father had never told anyone about it. As a demon himself, it was likely that he was the only one who knew…

As soon as Baili Jia Jue got to the restaurant, he removed his sungla.s.ses. The moment he revealed his appearance, he caught everyone’s eyes, diners and restaurant staff alike.

“He’s so handsome!”

“He looks like one of those comic characters.”

“Look at his silver hair, did he dye it?”

“I don’t think so. He’s probably mixed. Look at his child’s eyes. They’re so red and bright, just like a gem! Do all foreign children look that good?”
