Chapter 944 - His Highness, Her Husband (1/2)
“The complaint hotline was either busy or unanswered.” The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, “In the end, all I got was neglect and now my heart has turned cold.”
The old woman that was by his side gave him a pat, her voice came out a little hoa.r.s.e, “Forget it, just treat it as buying a lesson. We outsiders can’t afford to mess with the locals.”
The middle-aged man accepted the words of his old mother, but there was nothing that could lighten up the mood of the family of four.
Helian Wei Wei looked at them, her voice was very light, but her eyes were full of tenacity. She walked up to the old woman and said, “Granny, you can rest a.s.sured, I would definitely help you return this jade bracelet. Keep your receipt and bracelet well, don’t lose them and don’t fiddle with the bracelet anymore. After two days, someone will give you a proper explanation.”
The old woman was touched by Helian Wei Wei’s words, but she shook her head, “Young lady, if you help us, those people may not even let you off. I know you are a lawyer, but after all, you are still a lady, what if something happens to you?”
Knowing that the old woman really cared about her, Helian Wei Wei gave a gentle smile and pushed Baili Jia Jue forward, “With him here, granny, you don’t have to worry. My husband is very powerful and capable in combat. We don’t fear them.”
Baili Jia Jue did not expect to be presented in front of others that way. He glanced back to see her furry head, pleasant to hear her calling him ‘husband’, so he just followed along.
However, even if he loved being pampered, His Highness could hardly conceal his n.o.bility.
When the old woman looked up and saw him, she tirelessly praised His Highness for his good looks as if she was watching him through a television. Then she looked at the pair of little ones standing behind Helian Wei Wei, they were simply adorable.
The middle-aged man saw that his elderly mother’s mood had slightly softened, and the air of melancholy that surrounded her had dissipated profusely. He was not aware of the reason behind this, perhaps it was because the couple right in front of him stood out inordinately from the rest. A hint of hope rekindled in his heart, perhaps there was a chance that this jade bracelet could really be returned.
Helian Wei Wei asked the middle-aged man some other matters and he answered accordingly. About 10 minutes later, the two families separated, one went to Renmin Road and the other to Westerner Street.
Little Qingchen staggered as he walked next to Baili Jia Jue, he strove to keep up with his father’s steps.
Baili Jia Jue’s att.i.tude toward the two little ones were fair. He gave them all the freedom they needed, so one should never expect him to hold Little Qingchen’s hand while walking. If there was ever too much of a gap between them, His Highness would simply carry the little one by his collar and continue on his way.
Little Qingchen swayed his pair of short legs, looking like a plastic bag being carried by his Imperial Father. After blinking twice blankly, he turned his head to look at Helian Wei Wei and Baili Shangxie.
As an elder brother, Baili Shangxie was the one who knew his father’s virtue best. He quickly rescued his little brother from the hands of His Highness, then he clumsily held his brother in his embrace and walked on. Back when he was younger, he was carried around by his father like a plastic bag, so he must not let his little brother go through the same suffering like him. It looked extremely stupid.

Little Qingchen was held by his elder brother who was only a head taller than himself. As he talked, he had to twist his body around. There was a logical and rigorous tone in his milky voice, “Pretty Wei Wei, it was all staged from the beginning to the end. The uncle must have been deceived by the driver and the tour guide, who were both in it together.”
Little Qingchen said it in his most indifferent tone ever. As he spoke, he did not forget to take a bite out of the chocolate cake that Baili Shangxie handed to him.
