Imperial Father must never have thought that letting Imperial Mother carry the luggage would finally cause him to get the short end of the stick.
Baili Jia Jue glanced at them and plastered on a cold smile. Those two little brats were not worthy of his care yet.
He only needed one person.
In the center of the family room was a lounge with a wooden sliding door where Helian Wei Wei put the luggage away.
Baili Jia Jue stomped over with his long legs and walked through the door swiftly. One of his hands pressed down on the wooden door behind him as the other tugged at Helian Wei Wei's arm. With a forceful yank, she fell into his arms, the tip of her nose touching his c.h.e.s.t. She could feel the firm, continuous heartbeat under her palms, his scent lingering between his lips.
Helian Wei Wei held his hand down. "Hey, I'm still unpacking."
"That's why I'm here. To help you." Baili Jai Jue locked her in his embrace without any intention of letting her go.
Is there the need for a kiss when helping to unpack luggage?
Helian Wei Wei braced her hands against him, about to push him away.
Unexpectedly, he reached a hand out and pressed it firmly against her back.
She fell back into his arms again, even closer than before.
He had never planned to let her go. The strength exerted by his arms did not lessen in the least bit. Instead, his clear, peach blossom eyes grew darker, as though a blazing fire was raging in them, parching his mouth and scorching his tongue.
In an instant, that handsome face pressed down onto hers.
That cold scent became more wanton than ever.
It seemed his self-restraint had finally reached its limit and all qualms had been thrown out of the window.
He still had no intention of letting her go. With great patience, he managed to kiss her tenderly, coaxing her.
The kiss gradually came to a stop. By then, Helian Wei Wei's vision was hazy, allowing him to place her on the floor…
Bang!
With a single kick, the wooden door swung open to reveal Baili Shangxie with a sly smirk on his face. "I'm hungry, let's go downstairs to eat."
Baili Jia Jue took a deep breath and turned his head, his eyes darkening slightly. He reached out and lifted Baili Shangxie by the collar, a demonic smile on his face. "It seems like what we just talked about was not profound enough."
Baili Shangxie stared back at his Imperial Father cautiously, hoping to slip away. "It's already profound enough. I want to take little brother downstairs to eat."
Baili Jia Jue hoisted his son into his arms, a demon-like scent undoubtedly exuding from him. "Before eating, it's best to exercise a little. Otherwise, how can you take good care of your little brother?"
"Even without exercising, I can still take good care of little brother." Baili Shangxie could sense the incoming danger.
However, Baili Jia Jue did not even give him a chance to refuse. He directly restrained the little one, lowering his voice. "Squat jump a hundred times and we can go downstairs after that. Or would you prefer to go back to the demon realm?"
When Helian Wei Wei walked over to ask about it, Baili Shangxie did not even complain as he was afraid that his vengeful Imperial Father would throw him into the demon realm.
"I will exercise a little with Shangxie first," said Baili Jia Jue to Helian Wei Wei with an extremely scheming tone…
Chapter 940 - 936
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 w.h.i.n.ed and went on holding his little head as he resumed his jumps.
Soon, ten minutes had passed. It was only then did Baili Jia Jue put on his sunglasses 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.
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 space-time gap. Imperial Father would especially suffer a greater loss since he was the one who tore the space-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 sunglasses. 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?"
"Good genes are also the key, I guess. Too bad you guys missed his mother. I managed to take a glance at her while serving them just now. Gosh, she's simply gorgeous even without makeup! Not only that, she is super nice and she kept smiling at me when I was taking her order from earlier. What a graceful lady! So is her younger son who wore his napkin on his own, he looks just like a little prince."
"These people must be what we call the real winners in life! With such a strikingly handsome husband, not to mention two cool and lovely sons. Oh my God, this woman must have saved the entire universe in her past life!"
Being well-bred at all times, Helian Wei Wei turned around to smile at the girls after overhearing their discussions. That smile seemed to have blurred the gender distinctions, being so wicked yet charming.
This drove the girls to take a shine to her and they were all eager to take photos of the family of four.
However, as soon as they pressed the shutter, all of their phones crashed in unison. This was strange indeed, as if the batteries were drained away all of a sudden.
They were so focu
sed on their phones that they did not notice the flash at the bottom of Baili Jia Jue's eyes as he put down his wine glass.
As for Baili Shangxie, he did not mind being photographed by any of them. Anyway, his first thought after arriving in the modern age was to be a superstar. Thus, it would be necessary for him to get used to all kinds of camera shots if he were to be a superstar.
Nevertheless, he knew very well that his possessive Imperial Father would never allow photos of his Imperial Mother to be snapped at will.
Meanwhile, Helian Wei Wei was burying herself in the food like how she used to as she continued stuffing her little face with food. Whenever she came across a delicious dish, she would always transfer some onto Baili Jia Jue's plate.
Baili Jia Jue barely ate anything. He put his arm over the back of her chair and spent most of his time refilling Helian Wei Wei's bowl. It was a gesture full of ineffable gentleness.
The two little ones were enjoying their food, especially Little Qingchen. He looked remarkably adorable as he munched on his little piece of rib.
Baili Shangxie, on the other hand, had been busy rolling up his brother's sleeves the entire time. After dinner, Helian Wei Wei brought the three of them to the ancient city for a stroll.
The ancient city of Li City was exceptionally beautiful, in particular during night time. Amid the bustling and vibrant scenes were all kinds of snacks and stores with indescribable ethnic characteristics. Besides, there was also a Westerner Street reverberated with melodious singing.
With wobbly steps, Little Qingchen kept on stroking his belly, for he had eaten too much earlier.
Baili Shangxie took his brother by his hand and chatted with him from time to time. Both of them were murmuring in each other's ears. They mainly talked about the taking of sidekicks upon returning to the kindergarten.
Little Qingchen offered his full support.
Helian Wei Wei, who was ahead of them, felt an array of emotions upon hearing their conversation. Why does it feel like her sons have not been brought up properly?
Despite that, the two little ones were still considered well-behaved. When Little Qingchen came across a large dog on the road, he halted abruptly before pattering toward Helian Wei Wei. "Pretty Wei Wei, Blackie hasn't come out recently."
Before Helian Wei Wei could speak, Baili Jia Jue narrowed his eyes and reached out a hand to pinch his eldest son's ear. Soon, a black earring for magic suppression appeared on Baili Shangxie's ear bone.
Almost instantly, a magical dog with black mist emanating from its body showed up in front of Little Qingchen. Its hair was black and dense, like a mixed breed Tibetan Mastiff. It immediately caught everyone's attention at once.
The magical dog was very obedient to its little master as it trailed closely behind the two little ones in a docile manner throughout the whole journey.
Right at this moment!
Chapter 941 - To Take Advantage Of Wei Wei
It was noisy ahead as if someone was fighting.
It sounded like a tourism dispute.
Helian Wei Wei was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction of trouble.
Generally, any matter would not turn out dreadful at this place as it was a prime scenic spot which was protected.
However, the situation was quite terrible as it took some time for the police to reach, so the situation was spinning out of control.
The four of them seemed like a family who was traveling. They were different from Helian Wei Wei's family as there was an old lady along with them despite the children.
The old lady's face turned pale with fear, she was afraid that her son would be beaten and kept saying, "Forget it. Forget it."
The other group of people acted like bandits and looked at the middle-aged man in front of them haughtily. Even though they lowered their voice, what they said was still could be heard, "I warn you, you better don't be meddlesome, or else I will not let you out of this place!"
The middle-aged men could be considered well-off as he was wearing a suit. His face was red with anger and said, "Call the police."
Upon hearing the middle-aged man wanted to call the police, the leader of the gang moved closer to him. He not only beat him but also kicked the old lady aside.
However, the man's arm was grabbed as soon as he lifted his hand.
It was Helian Wei Wei, she looked at the man, a cool gleam in her eyes, "How dare you hit the elderly? Are you still a man?"
The man who led looked back, his face was full of fiery at first, but then he turned flirtatious after he saw Helian Wei Wei's look. He then hailed in a teasing manner and wanted to touch Helian Wei Wei's hand backhanded.
But before he could do that, he became paralyzed.
Three people were standing in front of him instantly, one man and two children. All of them were gazing at him with the same expression, the glow in the bottom of their eyes was similar to flowing sticky blood.
The man did not know why he had a false impression that he was being nailed on board and would be cut into pieces at any time.
Soon, almost the next second, he knew it was not an illusion.
This was because the eyes of the person standing opposite him were blood-red in color. The enchantment hidden in darkness was disseminating from his eyes, his handsome face which was chalky pale represented the breeding of the evil fangs; his icy breath, which filled with a strong intention to kill which cleaved the lingering black fog, and his bloodthirsty cruelty pervaded into the air. The corner of his lips was filled with evil, and his deep voice was as melodious as the harmony, "Do want to die?"
The leader shuddered as the ghoulish aura disseminated from Baili Jia Jue was too intense that no one could bear.
But very soon, the man snorted coldly as he saw the police officer was not far away. In Li City, no one dared to talk to him like that.
He was related to the ruler, who dared not to surrender to him?
Even though they were foreigners, as long as they were in Li City, they must listen to him!
"You better get out of my way and mind your own business.Whoever doesn't know how to speak malicious words? It is always easier said than done. Are you asking me whether I want to die? I warn you, if you meddle in this matter today, you will not get out of this town. I have friends in high places, you better watch out! " the man showed a fierce look.
Baili Jia Jue smiled, he said nothing but just reached out his chalky pale palm and charged towards his neck with an eerie gesture as if he wanted to tear the darkness apart.
The man felt cold at first, which was then followed by pain and lastly terror!
He was being strangled and held up in the air!
The feeling of his feet off the ground caused him to lose his balance.
His lips began to quiver, and his eyes were full of horror. He was hissing and gasping, "Let go, let go ——"
As the man was being choked, it was difficult for him even to open his mouth. He was paddling in the air as if crying for help.
"Let him down!" all the police officers ran over there while holding a stun baton.
However, Baili Jia Jue was not responding, as if he was not listening.The corner of his lips was filled with sinister, it had been a long time since the last time he killed. His ivory-like fingers were as strong as the white jade. With a cruel and intolerant force, he strangled the man's throat, which he was not able to move even an inch.
Perhaps, this was the so-called overlord who was once famous as the ruler of the demons!
"Help... Help..." the man cried, his face was twisted and ghostly pale.
Helian Wei Wei knew that it was not the time for a fatal accident. She was not worried about anything but just did not want His Highness to have too much blood on his hands.
Her principles never changed.
The fiend must be punished by all. It was not for their own d.e.s.i.r.es.
After Helian Wei Wei thought about it, she reached out her hands and back hugged His Highness.
H
is rush ghoulish aura was soothed only after she touched him. Baili Jia Jue casually threw the man aside, he then turned to Helian Wei Wei Wei and raised his eyebrows, "Why are you fawning?"
Helian Wei Wei was speechless. She was just trying to stop him, was that even coquetting?
She had to say that His Highness had an extensive definition of coquetry.
Baili Jia Jue smiled while pulling Helian Wei Wei over, his nobility contrasted strongly with the man fell on the ground, who looked stupid.
The man exhaled a deep breath and tried to stand up, attempting to show his true color in front of Baili Jia Jue!
A man behind reached for him and said in a deep voice," The police officer is here."
The leader of the gang spat fiercely. He was talking non-stop to the attending police officers before the real victim could speak.
They spoke in dialect, although Helian Wei Wei did not understand, she could see how rude he was just from his attitude!
Barbarous was all to describe this kind of person.
But it was obvious that the police officer and the leader knew each other, it was not surprising after all as both of them were locals.
The police officer probably had encountered a lot of this type of accident, and he was considered fair when dealing with it. First, he asked the group of people to step back. After that, he glanced over Helian Wei Wei's pack and finally set his eyes on the middle-aged man who was being beaten up. He was a bit impatient," I have roughly understood your matter. As you have known, there does not have a standard way to evaluate jade as its value depends on personal perception. It was bad to make trouble for such a matter and you even have the elderly along with you, you better get a grip of yourself."
After the middle-aged man listened to the police officer, disappointment started to grow from the bottom of his heart. He thought the authority would sort things out for him.
However, he did not know how to describe his feelings after seeing such a situation. He then looked at his old mother's panicked face and his wife and daughter who were worried, he gritted his teeth and said, "There is no way to just end up like this."
