No, it's not too late yet.

Xiao Zifeng stared at the person in front of him.

For five years, he had waited patiently for this person.

In the past five years, he had exhausted all types of methods to find her, even resorting to using his family connections to locate her.

Yet, he still failed.

That year was probably the most listless year that he had ever been through.

He regretted not confessing to this person that he liked her when they were both in school.

Since she first won an argument against him, he had madly fallen in love with this woman.

Even though he did not openly declare his love, those who were close to him knew he only had Helian Wei Wei in his heart.

At first, he thought his feelings for her were simply a teenager crush.

After all, he kept thinking about her because she had better knowledge than him in his field of expertise.

In the beginning, their relationship was not that great, because he could not find a way to approach her.

He was surrounded by too many people, but he could not even give up on this feeling accordingly.

Xiao Zifeng felt that problems usually would arise and relationships would turn ugly once a person became intimate with women of exceptional talents.

He might not have liked her that much, but he always felt a heart-warming sensation whenever he thought of seeing her on that day.

Since he was a child, Xiao Zifeng had always been a very thoughtful person because of his family background. He was mature for his age, and clearly knew what he wanted for his future.

Meeting Helian Wei Wei was probably the only anomaly that he had encountered in his life.

He wanted to control this unforeseen change, hence he planned to get close to Helian Wei Wei.

However, the closer he was to Helian Wei Wei, the more uncontrollable his feeling became.

And at that moment, he knew he was doomed...

Du Sisi saw through Xiao Zifeng's feelings clearly. They came from the same compound, and she too had fallen in love with him, who was a son of the military compound's rear admiral, since a long time ago.

In her mind, she always had this impression that he was very calm in everything that he did. Although both of them stayed in the same compound, his status was much higher than hers.

He was undeniably the youngest leader of this entire military compound, and even the cadets that left this military district would address him as Young Master Xiao.

Nonetheless, there came a day when this man, usually calm and composed, nervously asked her if she had Helian Wei Wei's contact number.

On that particular day, Du Sisi was still feeling pleased with herself that she could invite him to her birthday celebration.

Xiao Zifeng's words felt like a basin of cold water that drowned all of her feelings. From that day onward, Du Sisi, who had disliked Helian Wei Wei from the beginning, despised this woman even more now. At that time, she was best friends with Li Meng. Knowing that her best friend also liked Xiao Zifeng, she 'unintentionally' leaked this information to the latter.

Sure enough, the effect of her action became apparent swiftly. With the help of Li Meng, they succeeded in stopping most female students from talking to Helian Wei Wei.

Especially in the dormitory, where ostracizing her would hurt her the most.

No matter how strong Helian Wei Wei was, she could not escape this kind of suffocating atmosphere.

During that period, Du Sisi was extremely happy.

However, after seeing how Xiao Zifeng was gazing at her now, her joy turned into resentment and jealousy that had never left her.

She and Li Meng glanced at each other, and laughed, saying, "Zi Feng, you should think clearly about it. The people around you are not suitable for her. You should at least find someone that matches her. You may not know that after Wei Wei left school, she is now working as a mechanic. Hence, it would be difficult for her to enter our industry now. So, you shouldn't simply get any wealthy bachelors for her, I'm afraid that she'll be bullied."

"Sisi, that is so thoughtful of you. Why have I not thought of this? With Wei Wei's situation now, it would be hard for her to fit into a wealthy household," Li Meng looked at Xiao Zifeng and said, "Well, how about if I..."

"It's fine." Before Li Meng's could finish her sentence, Helian Wei Wei's opened her mouth to interrupt her. Her voice was clear, and with her trademark smile, she dismissed their superfluous intentions, saying, "I already have a boyfriend. So, if you're thinking of introducing a partner for me, please just forget about it."

Xiao Zifeng's face froze. He wanted desperately to ask her feelings for him, but he could no longer utter it now. He could only stare at Helian Weiwei's eyes with mixed feelings.

He could even feel the stinging pain when the anguish that he had hidden deep in his heart extended to the tip of his tongue.

Unlike Xiao Zifeng's feelings, Li Meng's thoughts were much more straightforward. She had sent someone to inquire about Helian Wei Wei at her son's school. The class teacher and school counsellors had mentioned that this woman had completed the registration procedure for her son's enrollment all by herself, and they had never seen her with any other person. It was even noted in her file that she was single and unmarried. How could she get a boyfriend in just two short days?

Li Meng made it very obvious that she did not believe Helian Wei Wei, as she glanced at Helian Wei Wei's expression and the others' reactions. Then, she clasped her hands and said, "Wei Wei, I know that you don't want all of us here to worry about you, but you don't have to do this. You must give yourself a chance. I've always seen you taking care of Qingchen all by yourself, how could you possibly have a boyfriend suddenly? "

As soon as Li Meng's words were said, other classmates looked at Helian Wei Wei incredulously and started to make assumptions about her situation. After all, nowadays, some people would make up some non-existent happenings to get out of difficult situations.

Undeniably, they all thought that Helian Wei Wei was trying to salvage her dignity. Hence, she claimed that she already had a boyfriend when in fact, her 'boyfriend' did not exist.

The expressions of several classmates changed when they came to this conclusion.

Du Sisi immediately said, "Wei Wei, there's nothing wrong with being single, we understand your feelings. You have grown up, and don't want others to know that you are raising a kid by yourself. However, with all things considered, this is a good opportunity. We have better resources since everyone is here, there's nothing to be shy about."

Du Sisi's words may sound innocent to some, but for people that had been out in the society, they would know there was a hidden meaning behind them. In reality, they were quite scathing and would make a person uncomfortable.

Helian Wei Wei naturally understood her true meaning, but she had no intention of continuing the conversation with this kind of person. Not to mention, her mobile phone was ringing in her bag, so Helian Wei Wei had no time for Du Sisi. This was another call from Little Shangxie, so she turned sideways and answered the call.

"Mom, I want to come to see you and little brother, I miss both of you." Baili Shangxie's voice was emotionless and sounded strangely unnatural. Actually, when he received that person's instructions, he had become even more determined to run away from home. He took a look at the person beside him, and continued to read the message from a piece of paper, word by word, "Can I ask dad to send me over?"

"Now?" Helian Wei Wei frowned.

"Yes, right now..."

Baili Shangxie tried his best to make him sound less cool in vain. His words were still a little cold as he asked, "Is it inconvenient because of the reunion?"

Helian Wei Wei remained silent.

Little Qingchen who was standing beside her tugged at her jeans.

Helian Wei Wei obeyed him and unconsciously bent down.

Little Qingchen's cheeks were still puffed up. While carrying the demon plush toy, he said into the phone very obediently, "I missed elder brother too. Today, in school, the teacher caught me daydreaming during English class..."

When he heard his younger brother's voice, Baili Shangxie stopped reading the paper and said coolly, "Be good, wait for me to go there."

Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless...

Can these two kids not decide adults' itinerary so arbitrarily.

Of course, Baili Jia Jue would not allow his son to continue wasting time like this, because the reasons he gave were not solid enough. Therefore, His Highness grabbed the phone and said in a pleasing deep voice, "Wei Wei, Shangxie kept wanting to meet you. It might be because he was injured somewhere after coming back from the demon realm. But he didn't want to let me know, which is why he wanted to meet you and Qingchen."

Baili Shangxie was tongue-tied at his father's blatant lie...

The surrounding demons were quietly dumbfounded as well... The one injured is not the little master, it's us! The little master is so domineering and callous now. His foot is still stepping on a monster, which part of him looks injured?

Baili Shangxie had always thought that his father was very shameless, as he would always use this trick on imperial mother. However, he never thought that he would become part of the trick!

His shamelessness simply has no bottom line!

Baili Jia Jue calmly uttered what he wanted to say, completely ignoring his son's disdainful look. For him, achieving the outcome that he desired was the most important thing...

Indeed, when Helian Wei Wei heard that her son was injured, she immediately said, "Ok. Just come here then. Yes, you're right. I'm at the Emperor Hotel. Call me when you've arrived. I will meet you then."

Du Sisi and Li Meng would never let Helian Wei Wei go, so they instantly interrupted, "Wei Wei, who just called? Do you want to leave early? That's not possible. Later the professor will turn up too. They treated you so well in the past. You can't just leave like this. We also want to have a heart to heart discussion afterwards. You haven't eaten anything yet, how can you leave?"

Helian Wei Wei was still holding her phone. As she raised her eyebrow, the corner of her eyes turned icy cold.

"Is it your boyfriend?" Someone guessed, "It seemed like it."

There were still some good classmates among them, especially the few female classmates that viewed Helian Wei Wei as their role model. When they meet Helian Wei Wei again now, an indescribable feeling bubbled in their heart.

Helian Wei Wei faced these people and smiled generously, "Yes, it's my boyfriend."

"Then, is he coming to fetch you now?" Some classmates were envious of her and said, "You are really lucky."

Hearing that, Du Sisi had a twisted idea and added, "Since he's your boyfriend, invite him here to have a meal with us. After all, we're all classmates and not strangers."

She wanted to see what Helian Wei Wei's boyfriend looked like.

A useless car mechanic like Helian Wei Wei probably can't find a decent man anyway.

Unlike me, many people are introducing outstanding men to me.

For example, the person that uncle had introduced to me can surely outrank her boyfriend effortlessly.

"Right, right. Wei Wei, since he's your boyfriend is coming, let him come up for a meal." Li Meng put on a mocking smile and said, "Could it be that your boyfriend is so unpresentable, that you don't want everyone to see him?"

Helian Wei Wei's phone call was still ongoing. Hence, the man who was sitting on the extended long version of the luxury limousine, could still clearly hear the conversation over the phone. His profound eyes sank as he put the business magazine in his hands aside, asking, "Wei Wei, who are you talking to?"

"It's just my classmates," Helian Wei Wei's looked away from Li Meng and Du Sisi and said in an unhurried tone.

Baili Jia Jue laughed. His voice was pleasant as usual, thinly veiling his demon's cunning and bloodthirsty character as he replied, "Since your classmates have invited me, bringing a family member to join them should be fine right?"

"Do I have such a large family member like you?" According to Helian Wei We's character, she would not waste time on mundane and meaningless things such as bragging about her boyfriend. Instead, she preferred His Highness to stay hidden at home better. Otherwise, some would covet the beauty of His Highness, and then she would have to think of ways to cut off the flowers of romance, which was not worth the effort. Yes! In some ways, Helian Wei Wei was very much like a bossy president!

Noticing that Helian Wei Wei had no intention to let her boyfriend come up, Du Sisi was afraid that she would lose the chance to mock her. Hence, she hurriedly said, "Wei Wei, don't feel any pressure to bring your boyfriend. Later, Li Meng's husband will come here too. The reunion this time is held on a large scale, so it's allowed to bring family members as well. So Wei Wei, if you keep dodging the question, we're going to doubt if your boyfriend is real. Or is this just an excuse because we talked about getting you a boyfriend?"

Helian Wei Wei turned her head around as her voice became frigid cold, "Du Sisi, you're a lawyer. I don't think the professor has ever taught us these nonsensical ideas. Have you been appearing in court with this ugly mentality all these years?"

Helian Wei Wei always had a queenly temperament. It merely depended if she displayed it or not.

She had been carrying her son since the beginning of the reunion. Most of them thought that she would be restrained because of her shameful career. Who would have thought that her temperament would come to light so inadvertently?

Suddenly, Du Sisi felt a tremendous pressure weighing on her. She acted pitiful as she lamented, "Wei Wei, I don't mean anything else. I'm just joking. Why can't you stand a joke?"

"A joke is to make everyone happy, not to speculate on others from your point of view." Every word that Helian Wei Wei spoke left Du Sisi speechless, unable to retort.

Du Sisi never thought that after so many years of practice, she was still no match for Helian Wei Wei. In the earlier days, during debates, I can never win against her. Why is this woman still so eloquent now!

"Wei Wei, I think you might be too sensitive." A female classmate who wanted to strengthen her relationship with Du Sisi would surely not let Du Sisi be in a disadvantageous position, saying, "Sisi didn't want to disappoint everyone. It's hard to gather everyone here today, but you want to leave so hurriedly. What are you even doing?"

"Ok, ok." Li Meng tried to smooth things over. "We all just thought that the more the merrier. Wei Wei, Sisi's right. My husband is coming later. What's your boyfriend's occupation? Maybe we can sit down and have a meal together. My husband is usually busy. He can even take everyone to do good projects when we have the chance. Then, you won't have to work so hard anymore and don't have to be so secretive either."

Although on the surface, it did not sound like anything, in fact, Li Meng had been speaking in an almsgiving tone since the beginning.

Obviously, she had already imagined Helian Wei Wei's boyfriend to be someone in the lowest class in society. She was literally saying that her husband could lead everyone to be wealthy.

Li Meng originally did not wish that her husband tagged along with her to meet Xiao Zifeng, but now she did not think so anymore.

Although my husband is not very good-looking, his background is first-class. He even has cooperation with the Xiao family. Furthermore, he is a frequent figure in the finance press so everyone knows him.

Those who work for others would eventually want to be a boss themselves.

Presumably, Helian Wei Wei's boyfriend is the same. When he comes and meets my husband, he will naturally lower his stance.

When the time comes, I believe Helian Wei Wei won't feel good watching her boyfriend trying to curry favour with another man.

This is the way to completely humiliate Helian Wei Wei!

Thinking up to this point, the feeling of victory emerged from Li Meng's heart.

How could Helian Wei Wei not understand the meaning behind those words? However, she smiled sarcastically and spoke to the phone, "Do you want to come up and have a meal with us?"

Helian Wei Wei thought that His Highness would definitely reject the invitation based on his character.

When they were still in Tian Dao together, whenever someone invited him to join a Heaven feast, he would toss the invitation to her. Then, he would prop his chin in his palm and continue reading his old scroll.

His Highness would obviously not be easily enticed by delicacies.

However this time, unexpectedly, she could hear the man's elegant voice through the phone, "Okay."

So frank?

Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows as she put down her phone and smiled at the classmates beside her. "He'll be here in a while."

In fact, she did not care about how people would view her. Helian Wei Wei really wanted to meet her mentor, otherwise, she would have gone away with her BMW tomahawk, instead of wasting her time here.

Seeing that things were progressing like the way they had planned, the smiles on Li Meng and Du Sisi's face deepened.

As a result of their joint efforts, once Helian Wei Wei's poor boyfriend was here later, they could prove to him their gap in the society.

Little Qingchen was standing aside. As a high IQ genius, he had clearly observed the two women's actions.

However, Little Qingchen had no thought of dealing with them. Now his mind was only occupied with one single thought which was the fact that his brother would be here anytime soon!

Thinking about this, Little Qingchen was exhilarated. Once he was excited, he would look so much cuter. The baby hair on his head was standing still and his cheeks were puffed up. While he was holding the devil plush toy that he wanted to give to Baili Shangxie, he was also using his tiny phone to send his elder brother WeChat messages.

His main purpose in sending his elder brother a WeChat message was because he noticed an interesting thing to share with his brother.

However, Little Qingchen did not know that the shameless Baili Jia Jue had confiscated Baili Shangxie's phone after he sent a provocative message 'Did you have an affair?' to Baili Jia Jue.

"Dad, you used to tell me to eat gracefully and that I must understand human beings and know their way of living." Baili Shangxie's voice was a little cold, "So, your action of not allowing me to use my phone now is called the invasion of privacy and will be condemned in the human world."

Baili Jia Jue smiled cunningly. "Little Baili Shangxie, am I too kind to you recently until it made you feel that you could just stay in the human world?"

Upon hearing that, Baili Shangxie became spiritless but still unconvinced, "You said that as long as I made a phone call to Imperial Mother, you will not threaten me about returning to the magical realm this month! Dad, are you trying to break your promise?"

"I surely won't threaten you this month but this doesn't mean that after this month, I will not threaten you." Baili Jia Jue drawled, "If you want to stay in the magical realm forever, I can return your phone now. If you don't want to, then you have to behave and don't disturb me going through my WeChat."

Baili Shangxie scratched the car. Help, I really want to beat someone up!

Little Baili Shangxie who was no match to his father's shamelessness could only hold the monster that he was stepping on and started his one-sided PK.

This was the practice that little demons must do in their process of development.

However, Baili Shangxie's method was vicious. The monsters had already felt that they had no hope in life.

Baili Jia Jue could not be bothered about his son's rage. He smiled faintly while swiping open the screen. He raised his eyebrows. "A message from Qingchen?"

Hearing that his brother was finding him, Baili Shangxie cooly kicked the monster out of the car. Then, he went close to his Imperial Father, decided to read it together.

Baili Jia Jue opened the message. A few words that made him uncomfortable come into view. "Brother, someone who has a crush on mom is here. Judging on his gaze, he definitely likes mom. However, I don't think mom notices that."

Once Baili Shangxie saw the message, he had a feeling that the situation would turn worse.

Sure enough, the tiny cell phone made another buzz. However, the side of the man's face did not change at all, only his eyes were gradually dyed with crimson light, causing the demons around him to turn more violent.

The dark fog suddenly filled the whole car. Within, Baili Jia Jue was sitting with his legs slightly crossed. His slender fingers were wrapped in pure white gloves and his good-looking thin lips slowly lifted, it was bloodthirsty yet menacing...

While at the Emperor Hotel nearby, after seeing that they had achieved their goal, Li Meng turned to the classmates and cried out, "Since Wei Wei has agreed, then we don't have to worry about not being able to see her boyfriend. Let's go and order first. It's not easy to book this hotel, especially during this period when it's before dinner, usually, they won't accept guests. Thanks to Sisi, we managed to book a private room this time."

Du Sisi tugged her a little, acting to be modest. In fact, her intonation sounded like she was bragging, "Mengmeng, that's enough. What does it have to do with me? It all depends on my family. After all, my uncle is the senior management of the Jue Wei Group so he could certainly give a hand."

"Sisi, stop acting humble. As long as you work harder, you can eat here whenever you want."

Hearing Li Meng's words, some classmates who came late did not understand and asked doubtfully, "What do you mean? Why can't we understand you?"

"Ah, she's seeing the boss of the Jue Wei Group recently. This Emperor Hotel is just one of the properties of the Jue Wei Group." Li Meng acted mysteriously.

"Do you understand now?"

Du Sisi's face was flushed red as she pulled Li Meng's shirt. "It's still up in the air, don't spout nonsense."

"Understood, understood, we all understood now." The classmates looked at Du Sisi in unison.

Du Sisi enjoyed such attention and she did not deny the fact. She knew how to lead people to believe that she was dating President Jue. Hence, she only revealed a look of embarrassment from the start to the end.

At first, everything seemed fine. However, when Du Sisi looked up, she noticed, regardless of what had happened, Xiao Zifeng's gaze did not move an inch away from Helian Wei Wei.

Looking at him fixing his gaze at her with deep affection was something that she was immensely envious of since high school. Even now, that sense of jealousy still affected her.

She laid her eyes on the man who never revealed any sorts of emotions toward her. Her eyes brightened up as she clenched her fists. She then tilted her head to face Helian Wei Wei, saying, "I wonder what your new boyfriend looks like. I always heard that many girls compromise in relationships due to the pressure from their surroundings. Wei Wei, you better don't be like them. All of us have attractive facial features, so I believe you can surely find someone who suits you well."

"Wei Wei, don't listen to Sisi. My husband isn't so good-looking either. The most important thing for men is the way they dress up themselves. When your boyfriend arrives later, we can tell how he styles himself. If it's really out of fashion, we have Zifeng and the rest here to provide him with some good advice." Li Meng sounded sincere with her words, but in fact, disdain could be faintly seen through her eyes.

Helian Wei Wei frowned. Is she hinting that His Highness looks hideous and has poor fashion sense?

"Wei Wei, why are you keeping silent? Don't tell me that I have guessed it right!" Du Sisi smiled as she continued, "no worries. It's normal for a man to be a little rough. After all, no one can assure us that we will be able to find our absolute ideal partner. However, it brings concern when some girls are willing to sacrifice themselves just for the sake of money by serving fat yet ugly old men. However, judging from your demeanour, you don't look like you will do such a thing. I'm pretty sure a woman who rides a motorbike to work will definitely not be involved in this."

Upon hearing that, Little Qingchen looked daggers at Du Sisi with his huge pair of eyes. He was on the verge of an outburst.

As Helian Wei Wei witnessed this, she reached out her hand to grab Little Qingchen's ear. She then curved up her lips into a smile and took a glance at her classmates around her. "Speaking of this, to be honest, I fell for his appearance, or else, we would not have gotten into a relationship."

The surging fury emerging from Little Qingchen vanished immediately. His tiny head nodded along with the remark. I couldn't agree more on that point. Since I was born, pretty Wei Wei has always been praising our father for his handsome look. It has almost become my 'tightening-crown spell' since I was young. However, why is my brother not replying to my message? I'm still waiting to discuss it with him.

Helian Wei Wei's reply caused others to be at a loss for words. Several classmates laughed it off to make the ambience less awkward. They teased in a friendly manner, "Wei Wei, are you serious? You don't look like someone who is captivated by beauty though."

"I have always judged others by their appearance." Helian Wei Wei's voice sounded natural. She then let out a generous smile as she uttered, "He is the most stunning man I have ever seen. I took the initiative to pursue him previously because I was attracted to his look."

Helian Wei Wei was being frank. She had always thought of herself as the bossy president. Hence, chasing someone was certainly her thing to do but obviously, others did not think the same way.

"Wei Wei, you're exaggerating! Zifeng is here, who can be more handsome than him. Mind your words because it's hard to take them back later," Li Meng asserted and laughed along with others. "As the saying goes, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Wei Wei really tries hard for her boyfriend. What made the initial indifferent and talented girl chase after someone? This seems too cheap for you."

"She even mentioned that her family has good social connections, but eventually, she became a car mechanic." One of the three female classmates who came to a quick realization of the real meaning behind Li Meng's words shot a disdainful glance at Helian Wei Wei.

Du Sisi tried to smooth things over. "Perhaps something unpleasant happened to Wei Wei's family, causing her to be in such a state. I believe she didn't want to tell lies. Stop talking about the time when we were still in school. At that time we were all still young, so it's understandable to be vain. Isn't it, Wei Wei?"

"Vain?" Helian Wei Wei repeated this word playfully. She gradually gave out a smile, with a unique meaning surrounding her thin lips.

Du Sisi portrayed a look as though she knew Wei Wei very well. The corners of her mouth were accompanied by a hint of mockery. She raised her wrist to look at her watch. "It's almost five o'clock. We haven't eaten anything after talking for so long. I'll give them a call to ask them to open the red wine first. Red wine tastes better after decanting. You can have a look at what you feel like eating. With the presence of my uncle, I am sure all of you will be given the best treatment. Wei Wei, help yourself later. Not everyone gets the chance to have a taste of the food here."

Those words were meant to indicate that Helian Wei Wei could not afford to have a meal in the Emperor Hotel.

A few ladies who followed behind Du Sisi laughed along with Li Meng. The meaning behind those words was as clear as day.

The price of the food was absolutely higher in such a grand hotel, especially for those precious ingredients. For example, the sashimi that was imported from Japan and the most authentic Beijing roasted duck that was hot from the oven. Each dish would easily cost up to thousands of yuan.

To be served with these dishes, it was required for the customer to make an appointment in advance.

After all, Du Sisi was rather confident when she uttered those words. In her point of view, she thought that this person would never have a taste of such good quality food, not to mention having an outstanding boyfriend.

Thinking about this, Du Sisi added with a smile, "Don't worry, Wei Wei, even if your boyfriend is not that good-looking, we won't say anything. Everyone will not..."

Before Du Sisi even finished talking, a deep and elegant voice sounded behind the crowd.

"Am I late?"

That voice was not sharp, but instead, it was overly pleasant to the ear that it caused the noise of people moving around to come to a halt. It was hard not to make others notice it.

Everyone immediately turned over their shoulders.

A man could be seen standing with a backlit effect. No one knew how long he had been standing there. He was clad in a black knee-length windbreaker which was half-open, revealing the pure white T-shirt. As for his bottom part, although he matched it with a pair of burgundy trousers with an unknown brand, its texture seemed fine and managed to exhibit his pair of slender and strong legs well. His silvery-grey fringed hairstyle made him look exactly like a character who came out from a comic book. He was filled with a captivating sense of beauty. His eyes were long and narrow with the corners of his eyes slightly slanted up, radiating a faint hint of sharpness. His skin was palely fair. The DiorHomme's style seemed to be tailored for him. The man appeared like a vampire aristocrat with oriental charm from afar, coupled with some sort of devilish elegance.

In a flash, everyone seemed to become a background.

Du Sisi and others were rendered speechless. Even if they had seen the world, they had never encountered such a stunning man before.

Several female classmates could not help themselves from looking fixedly at the man with their direction of sight changing along with his movement.

He stood right at the entrance of the hall. His ivory white and slender fingers were holding a child. That child had a rather handsome look with well-defined features, a fair tiny face and a cool style of dressing up. He was similar to that of a little demon in movies with a small leather glove on his hand.

Just as Du Sisi and others were at a loss for words, the man had paced over. At that moment, the rather dim lighting in the hall seemed to have all rushed over to him, brightening his eyes like a flowing diamond, making him look so seductive yet captivating.

Helian Wei Wei was well aware that this man would be able to catch other people's attention in a wink even if he was in a huge crowd.

However, in reality, it was much more shocking than she had expected.

The formation of such an aura was indescribable as it was merely a modern attire but it was able to exude the feeling of a movie character in the 19th century. A standing posture was enough to bring out the qualities that gave pleasure to the senses.

Du Sisi was wondering about the identity of the man who appeared out of the blue. Based on her memory, their class did not seem to have such an outstanding student.

At that time, several female classmates who were mocking Helian Wei Wei along with Du Sisi were already blushing with their hearts throbbing. Let's find a way to hook him up first regardless of who he is.

Thus, one of the women who assumed to have good looks, reached out her hand to play with her hair. She then uttered with a sweet voice, "You're not late. We are just about to..." Just as the woman was trying to finish her sentence, she was forced to a halt by the following scene.

The man did not even bother to shoot a glance in her direction. Instead, he passed by them to walk over to Helian Wei Wei. He then showed a subtle act of intimacy. "What's on the corner of your lips?"

"The corner of my lips?" Helian Wei Wei was utterly confused.

Baili Jia Jue stretched out his hand and used his finger to brush through Helian Wei Wei's lips. It seemed intentional, thus his movement seemed rather slow yet gentle.

In fact, Baili Shangxie could clearly tell that there was nothing on his Imperial Mother's lips. His shameless father just wanted to declare his sovereignty.

Honestly, no one else other than Imperial Father would use such a method.

Xiao Zifeng stood aside with his gaze falling on Helian Wei Wei. His eyes darkened to a point where he could not pay attention to the conversation between him and some male classmates.

All he could do was to see the man who could simply get close to Helian Wei Wei. His fingers stiffened and his heart was in a complete mess.

Those who witnessed Baili Jia Jue's actions were taken by surprise. However, they soon came to a realization. "Wei Wei, who is this?"

Before Helian Wei Wei gave an utterance, Baili Jia Jue had already put on a smile. It was indifferent yet it carried the essence of a good upbringing. He curled up his lips into a grin which was just on point. "Hello everyone, I'm Wei Wei's husband."

"Hus...husband?" The university students were in a trance because of the smile. "I thought she said it's her boyfriend?"

Upon hearing that, the man twitched his lips. Then, he looked sideways and caressed Helian Wei Wei's head as he responded helplessly, "We already have children together. Why do you still introduce me as your boyfriend to others? Wei Wei, you are always so lost when it comes to marital status."

Helian Wei Wei thought to herself. I am a little not used to His Highness being so gentle. Moreover, he is so cooperative with other people's questions today. Why is that so? He is often so indifferent, hence, even if it was for the sake of me, he would only reply yes when others asked him some questions. What's wrong with him today?

Baili Shangxie who was well-informed of his Imperial Father's trick did not comment much on his shamelessness. Instead, he tiptoed and tried to pick up Little Qingchen from Helian Wei Wei's arms with all his might. He portrayed the image of a good brother. "Are you hungry?"

Little Qingchen nodded and pushed the devil plush toy in his hand forward. "This is a gift for you. I did not buy this, instead, I caught it on my own."

Baili Shangxie carried his younger brother who was a head shorter than him. Obviously, he could not empty his hands to take the plush toy. His cool tiny face showed a trace of a smile. He was so delighted that his younger brother actually thought of him all the time.

The two little ones were very close to each other. Therefore, after being separated for a day, they had lots to talk about.

"I also have something for you. When you eat later, I'll help you to put it on." As a great elder brother, Baili Shangxie was more mature than Little Qingchen.

Just then, Helian Wei Wei requested him to put Qingchen down.

Baili Shangxie did not let go. Although his legs were feeling a little wobbly when he walked, he still felt that his younger brother should be carried. It would be more dangerous to let Qingchen walk on his own. There are so many idiotic human beings around here, what if they hurt him...

Looking at one after another scene unfolded before them, Du Sisi and others felt as though they received a slap in the face especially the few female classmates who attempted to woo the man. They were green with envy yet feeling a little ashamed.

Never had they thought that Helian Wei Wei would be able to find such a good-looking man!

As Li Meng recalled the words she mentioned earlier, she was close to a breakdown because her husband was obviously not so presentable.

Luckily, her son needed to use the bathroom so his father brought him there. Otherwise, if her husband was standing right here, it would show a big difference as her husband was paled in comparison to Helian Wei Wei's.

Little Qingchen who could see through Li Meng's thought had waited long for a great opportunity to strike back. He carried the devil plush toy in his hands while speaking in a childlike tone, "Aunty, now that you have seen my father. I think you can give up your thoughts of letting your husband teach my father how to style. My father is not a hideous person and obviously, Uncle does not seem to have the ability to advise my father how to dress up."
