Chapter 1044 - The Demon's Possessiveness
Helian Wei Wei thought that her behavior had hurt His Highness, so she immediately vowed, "I'll throw this stupid handphone away and never take photos of you again!"
"What if I take a photo of you?" Baili Jia Jue took the opportunity to ask her a question.
Helian Wei Wei stated zealously, "I'm okay with it."
As a mercenary tycoon, this kind of thing is just a piece of cake for me!
As long as my partner is pleased, taking a photo is no trouble at all!
Baili Jia Jue looked at her face and gradually smiled. Then, he pulled her hand toward him and kissed at the back of her hand lovingly. "My master, don't forget what you have said."
Helian Wei Wei blinked her eyes curiously, as she did not think it was a big deal. However, when she remembered that she was bringing His Highness out at night in this form, she felt that she had to make adequate preparations.
"Let's check our shop in Taobao first. I won't accept the job if the customer is a homewrecker or a promiscuous woman. You will surely be nabbed away in this form."
Helian Wei Wei mumbled to herself as she opened her MacBook laptop, while still holding Baili Jia Jue tightly in her grip.
If like this…
I'm not the one touching her.
But she was the one touching me instead.
Baili Jia Jue kept silent as he put his left hand over her waist from behind and buried his head into her neck. An evil smile slowly formed on his lips.
Helian Wei Wei allowed him to smell her neck and would only dodge when it was too ticklish. Most of the time, she still allowed Baili Jia Jue to do anything that he wanted. It was mainly because she felt that His Highness had become more s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e after he had shrunk. As a more m.a.t.u.r.e person, she had to be more emotionally s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e. That's correct, I have to be more emotionally s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e!
Helian Wei Wei looked at the popped up Taobao webpage. To show that she did not ignore Baili Jia Jue, she held his hand that was hugging her, before logging into her Taobao account.
A notification instantly appeared just as she logged in, it seemed like the person was very anxious.
Before Helian Wei Wei could reply, the person had already left five messages on her page.
The first message sounded like this.
"Boss, are you there? I'm not sure why but I always cannot get out of a place. Am I lost in the dark and going around in a circle?"
The second message was "The weirdest thing is that I will wake up suddenly at night and could not fall asleep after that."
Helian Wei Wei was stunned when she read the messages. Then, she started to move the mouse around the screen. The record was still there and she could see that the sender was a civilized person.
"There isn't anyone here, even he has gone for a business trip. I don't know if I'm disturbing your resting hour but I don't understand why I'm here? I have clearly given up and promised to set him free. Ah! If he comes back and sees me here, he would be very angry."
An unfathomable light flashed across her eyes as Helian Wei Wei read the message being sent to her. Then, she started to type a reply.
"Dear customer, where are you now? I need to know your specific address and contact details to help you solve the problem."
The person at the other end received her reply and replied to her promptly, "I'm at Heping now, there is an apartment here. I can tell you the room password. The door has an electric lock, you can enter after inputting the password."
"How about your contact details?" Helian Wei Wei seemed to ponder for a moment before typing the reply, as the glimmer in her eyes remained bright constantly.
The person on the other end seemed to hesitate and replied with a bitter laugh, "I don't have a handphone but there's a landline here. There was a call from it before this, but the caller remained silent for a long time after saying 'hello' twice when I answered. Previously, I even had a phobia because of this call as I thought it was a prank call. I only realized that something supernatural might have latched onto me when I saw your Taobao shop."
Helian Wei Wei typed the word 'no' first, before deleting it and replying, "I need to see you in person to confirm your situation. If you can't be contacted through the phone, please tell me your house number. I'll give you a signal when I reach. Only then, you would open the door for me."
"Okay."
Helian Wei Wei closed her notebook after they had a quick discussion.
She had a strict principle that she would always only accept one order per night. No matter how much money the person offered her, she still would not accept a second job.
This was also the reason why Helian Wei Wei's Taobao shop was the most popular.
People claimed that the shop owner did not choose the order by the money offered. Rather, it depended on her mood.
Many people wanted to locate the specific address of this Taobao shop because they wanted to at least find out who the shop owner was.
However, strangely, no matter how much effort and money the people who investigated it spent, they could not find the true owner behind this Taobao shop.
This further established the peculiar rumor surrounding this Taobao shop.
Baili Jia Jue chuckled softly in her ear and said, "It seems like a customer who stands out from the masses."
"Hmm." Helian Wei Wei smiled and replied, "But the obsession is very strong. Usually, there will be a greater virtue when a stronger obsession is satisfied. In that case, I will be able to grow taller."
Baili Jia Jue twitched his eyebrows and asked, "Do you not like how you look now?"
"It is not good if my sons see me like this." Helian Wei Wei placed her hand on her forehead and continued, "Besides, Kim and his gang would definitely laugh their teeth off."
With a grin on his face, Baili Jia Jue removed her hand and spoke unhurriedly, "Don't worry about being seen by the two kids, since I sent them to the United States this morning. Shangxie has to shoot a commercial there, so he has already flown there with Qingchen a long time ago."
Helian Wei Wei lost her tongue. So, I was stuck in this room and too afraid to leave it, for nothing?
"Furthermore, he will return to the demon world tonight so you don't need to care for the two brats." The smile on Baili Jia Jue's face grew when he mentioned Baili Shangxie.
Helian Wei Wei raised her good-looking eyebrows and asked, "To the demon world again?"
"Yes." Baili Jia Jue smiled innocently. Actually, His Highness would never let him off after lying about him. Although he had done some favors for him, that was essentially a different matter. Surely, he had to mete some punishment to Shangxie after he ticked him off.
Helian Wei Wei lowered her head and whispered, "Even though I feel sorry for my sons by saying so, I felt more relaxed if they're not here at this moment. Otherwise, there would definitely be some trouble if they saw how I look currently."
"Yeah, it's indeed very troublesome." As Baili Jia Jue took a sniff of the scent of her hair, his silver-white ears twitched a little.
However, Helian Wei Wei did not know that Baili Jia Jue would definitely not allow anyone to witness her slowly growing, except himself.
This was the demon's stubborn and unyielding possessiveness...
Chapter 1045 - I Knew All About Your Body
It was nighttime, the sky was murky and a thin drizzle was falling in the area where a celebrity apartment was located.
The houses within the Third Ring Road in the Capital were not exactly cheap.
However, this apartment was indeed sold at a ridiculously sky-high price.
Other than the other villa area in Western Town, this apartment was probably the most expensive building around.
One could see successful and influential individuals entering the apartment while holding their briefcases.
Every unit in the apartment was equipped with top-notch electronic services. Thus, it had maximum security as there were surveillanc
e cameras everywhere.
Of course, the cameras were no more than just a pile of iron scraps. With just a swift blink…
The cameras would seem to come to life and hastily avoided recording his image.
On the surface, the apartment did not seem to be haunted.
This apartment was even built at a location with exceptionally great Feng Shui, as it was constructed on the mountain ranges, or Dragon Vein in Feng Shui terminology, that ran from east to west. Additionally, the Summer Palace was erected at the end of the architecture. They must have sought advice from the professional Feng Shui masters when they built this apartment, as the Yin and Yang were very balanced and the aura of resentment would not acc.u.mulate easily. It was indeed a very impressive apartment.
Helian Wei Wei was still holding Baili Jia Jue. She did not notice anything peculiar when they entered the apartment.
The apartment was eerily quiet, with seemingly few people around, while the marble floor glistened under the artificial lighting. It was clearly a very luxurious apartment and every corner of the building was sparkling clean.
A person was entering to go into the lift, before turning his head around and peering at Helian Wei Wei, as though wanting to ask them some questions.
His Highness' head was still lowered, without looking up at him.
Helian Wei Wei merely waved her hands at the person with a smiling face.
That person mumbled to himself, "When did these two weird people move into this apartment?"
It was inevitable as Helian Wei Wei was indeed dressed weirdly in others' eyes. After all, no normal people would leave their house in a kasaya.
Baili Jia Jue looked down and smiled, still holding Helian Wei Wei's hand with his finger. "It seems like someone thinks that we look suspicious."
"There are many people who judge people by their outer appearances nowadays." Helian Wei Wei shrugged her shoulders indifferently. She furrowed her eyebrows when she looked at Baili Jia Jue, saying, "Look at you, you're a teenager but you're wearing a black suit and black gloves. People who don't know you might think that you're cosplaying someone. Why don't you change your clothes?"
Baili Jia Jue merely stared at Helian Wei Wei and kissed her fingertips with his cold yet tender lips. "Only this kind of clothes would make me look like your loyal dog. Moreover, I thought that you love haughty but secretly affectionate men, right?"
Helian Wei Wei glared at him and asked, "How do you know?"
"How can I not understand my master's mind?" Baili Jia Jue smiled as he rubbed his ears against her neck and whispered seductively, "I also know which part of your body would be stimulated when touched, heh."
Helian Wei Wei was not used to being hugged in the lift. Even if His Highness seemed very adorable, she was embarrassed about being overly intimate with him in public.
Helian Wei Wei coughed loudly, and then pushed His Highness away. "Alright, we've arrived at the tenth floor. Let's get down to business."
Baili Jia Jue disliked being pushed away, especially when the order was still in effect.
"Why aren't you moving?" Helian Wei Wei turned her head around in confusion.
Baili Jia Jue wore a little smile and replied, "Nothing."
Helian Wei Wei did not hesitate and immediately started to key in the password for the digital lock based on the password given by the customer.
However, after only pressing two numbers, the door was abruptly opened from inside.
Weirdly, the person who opened the door was not a woman.
Instead, it was a very handsome man with tousled short hair and a cold expression. A pair of golden-rimmed glasses were perched on his straight nose, and his face seemed curiously familiar.
Instantly, Helian Wei Wei recalled where she had seen him.
He was the top doctor who was very famous recently. Not only did he come from a stellar family background, but he was also extremely good looking and wealthy. He even represented the First Hospital to participate in an international symposium. When the media released his photos, swarms of netizens immediately made him their new idol.
After all, it would not be an exaggeration to claim that this man was a winner in life.
Many women desperately wanted to marry him.
However, most of them quickly abandoned the idea when they saw a certain photo.
When Helian Wei Wei saw the news in the past, she had not been reunited with Baili Jia Jue. She was playing Plant and Zombies with Little Qingchen in her arms when the news popped up on the television.
She did not expect to meet the real person here.
The man looked like he had just taken a shower, even his short hair was completely soaked wet. When he narrowed his eyes, he seemed extremely uncongenial and distant. He looked at Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue with a vigilant glare and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
Helian Wei Wei laughed a little as she blocked Baili Jia Jue and replied, "We are Lan Ya's friend. She asked us to come and take something for her. Is it okay with you, Mr. Chen?"
The man seemed dumbfounded, as his facial expression started to change. He asked a hint of ridicule, "What is it? Why didn't she come personally for it?"
"She's probably worried about disturbing you." Helian Wei Wei was still smiling but at that moment, her vision shifted from him toward the shadowy silhouette behind him.
That was her customer.
She was not a lost ghost.
Rather, the one who looked for Wei Wei was Lan Ya, a soul who was trapped in this house.
Other than Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue, no one else could see Lan Ya's presence.
At that moment, Lan Ya was looking at the man with inexpressible grief.
The man was still smiling, with a glint of menace in his lips. "She would not ask you to come here if she doesn't want to bother me. Where is she now?"
Lan Ya shook her head at Helian Wei Wei.
Immediately, Helian Wei Wei understood what Lan Ya meant. She lied to him and replied, "She has been in a bad mood recently, so one of our male friends accompanied her to a foreign country. Mr. Chen is a doctor, so you should know that from the point of view of human ethology, the best way to forget a failed relationship is to replace it with a new one."
The man's finger froze for a moment. Then, he laughed sarcastically and said, "Isn't it more than enough to use the same trick once? She even used it twice. When did she become so silly? In that case, please tell her clearly that she must come here personally if she wants to take anything."
When she heard this, Lan Ya lowered her head sadly. Her long hair had slipped across her face, covering her facial expressions.
Even so, she still could not conceal the air of bitter misery emanating from her...
Chapter 1046 - Obsession
Helian Wei Wei peered at her closely, before facing the man again and smiling at him. "We have to try our best to do what was entrusted to us. Since Lan Ya asked us to come here, we can't return with empty hands. Since Mr. Chen dislikes her, why do you want to meet her again? Wouldn't you be happier if she doesn't appear?"
The man tightened his hand that was holding a towel. His voice lowered with a menacing grunt. "Huh, she's smarter this time, sending a smooth talker like you here. I really thought she has given up, but it seems like she's merely pretending to take one step back."
"Pretending to take one step back?" Lan Ya laughed in disbelief. One could only wonder if it was aimed at the man or herself. They had known each other for so many years and she had always wanted to treat him well. However, why did she become a hateful vampire in his eyes? He seemed to assume that all of the decisions that she made was to upset and trick him. In actuality, she had never wished for him to be unhappy.
Everyone says that the important thing is not what one has done.
Rather, it's about who is the one that does it.
If that other person treated him in this way...
Perhaps, he would not have this kind of reaction.
After all, t
he person was perfect and flawless in his heart. Unlike her, in his eyes, she was probably a rude and unreasonable rich man's daughter who thought highly of herself and oppressed others with her wealth.
However, it was time to let him go. She had exchanged some things for him to stay by her side. He had begun to despise her, but another lady even entered the picture now.
Now, the two people started to appear in front of the media. As the most outstanding doctor, they were simply a perfect match.
Instead, she seemed like an annoying obstacle between them. It was not a mystery why he would hate her so much.
Lan Ya placed her hand on her forehead, pressing against her messily hanging hair. She seemed to have made up her mind and said something to Helian Wei Wei.
However, the man could not hear it at all.
Everything in the living realm was separated from those from the underworld.
If the media did not broadcast it, the people in the living realm could not hear the sound emitted by a soul.
Naturally, Helian Wei Wei was different from normal humans as she was a Phoenix. She looked at Lan Ya and slightly nodded. Then, she shifted her gaze onto the man and said bluntly, "Mr. Chen, your reactions are within her expectations. Lan Ya said that if you're still worried that she would not give up and keep clinging onto you, you can open the cabinet in your office room. The two original copies of the contract that you signed previously are inside it, so you can burn or destroy them."
She added, "As for others, she has already informed her family, saying that both of you had broken up peacefully. Thus, you don't need to worry that the relationship between the two families would turn sour because of the breakup. Even her elder brother would not ask you to be responsible for her anymore. Even this time, she must travel overseas with her close friends. Maybe she was too silly and could not understand this in the past, but this time, she has made up her mind. She even asks me to apologize to you on her behalf when I see you. Although she can't wish you well with a smiling face now, she believes that everything will return to normal when she comes home in three years."
