The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

271-275

Baili Jia Jue continued speaking in a slow and deliberate fashion, "Regardless of how many people have caught your fancy in the past, you can only be mine from today onwards. I am a very reasonable person as long as you don't do things that you shouldn't."

"Is it reasonable to restrict my freedom as it is now?" Helian Wei Wei's lips curved in a sinister smile.

Baili Jia Jue watched her reaction calmly. "It's reasonable because I am the one who set the rules."

Then, why don't you do it yourself!

Helian Wei Wei took a deep breath. In the end, she felt that she was too aggressive and did not refute.

The person outside seemed to get more anxious. He shouted again, "Your Highness!"

Only then did Baili Jia Jue stand up and stride out the room. He left without giving a glance at Helian Wei Wei.

Helian Wei Wei pushed her bangs back up. She finally realized what's the meaning of "treating male and female differently."

Men and women living together, especially under the same roof, might face even more problems than she previously thought.

Maybe she shouldn't have worked with such a dangerous man in the first place.

She had no idea if it's too late to return the goods now.

While still deep in thought, she heard Eunuch Sun's distinctive voice rang out, "Your Highness, what happened to your forehead!"

Baili Jia Jue did not speak but turned the little golden lock on his hand with all his strength and then kicked away the wooden stool at his feet!

The wooden stool crumbled into dust in a flash.

All the people present were shocked silent!

Their legs were shaking and they didn't dare breathe out loud.

Eunuch Sun tried opening his mouth to speak.

However, he saw that Baili Jia Jue had already recovered his cool and his fingers had adjusted his collar gracefully. His left eye blinked. He turned back to his study without saying anything.

Eunuch Sun followed him while offering up a handkerchief on his hands, "Your Highness, your forehead is wounded!"

Baili Jia Jue took the handkerchief, wiped his fingers with it, and then threw it away with a cold, frosty look.

Eunuch Sun did not know what had happened to him.

Then he heard Baili Jia Jue sneered, "Call someone to check again, are the princess and Hei Ze only have work relationships?"

He knew only of Hei Ze's thought, but not hers.

But both her "refusal to submit even unto death" and also the name she called out unconsciously always made him uncomfortable...

"Yes." The shadow hiding in the dark left in a flash.

Eunuch Sun was still worried about his master's injuries. He did not know why the couple didn't agree then fought.

They just began their life as newlyweds.

He was afraid that the situation would get even worse in the future.

But Eunuch Sun did not know at all that from Helian Wei Wei's point of view, She had already arranged her escape route, but Baili Jia Jue indeed posed a thorny problem for her. If he had been as tough on her like any other man, she would have found it easy to deal with him, not to mention cruel. But so far, she did not know what his idea was.
