Upon hearing that, Helian Wei Wei glanced at the palace maid who was talking and thought: This person is asking for trouble. How dare she talk to His Highness in such a tone? Is she not afraid of infuriating His Highness?
At the moment, Helian Wei Wei had forgotten that this person before her had yet to become the greatest in the world, who could kill someone with only a stare.
He was still a kid, and was also an unfavored prince…
Baili Jia Jue clearly understood how an unfavored prince should behave in the imperial palace. He looked at the food container in silence, and quietly made his way to the wooden basin, washing his face without any expression.
Helian Wei Wei watched his petite figure with a choking feeling in her throat.


She had never witnessed this side of His Highness before.
That man had always been aloof and distant, without ever holding anyone or anything dear to him. Even the Emperor could not do anything about it.
But now, even a mere palace maid could taunt and ridicule him like this.
Helian Wei Wei could not bear to watch this.
She did not expect that the palace maid would continue to behave in such a rude manner. The maid glanced at Baili Jia Jue and muttered unhappily,
Geez, why did I have such bad luck to be assigned to delivering food here?


You think that serving the Third Prince is bad luck?
Helian Wei Wei smiled softly, the corners of her mouth curving up a little, looking extremely attractive.
Baili Jia Jue, who was washing his face, paused. He raised his eyes, beautiful and narrow, and looked toward Helian Wei Wei, light flickering in his eyes.
The palace maid raised an eyebrow and sneered.
Judging from your outfit, I assume that you must be new to the palace? That’s right, that’s what I think. And you still dare to give me trouble? Do you know who I am? You know nothing about the customs here! I’m warning you, mind your own business. If you make me mad, I have many ways to deal with you! Little girl!


Little girl?
Helian Wei Wei licked her lips. It had been so long since she last heard someone addressing her like that. How should she put this… she felt like punching someone right now.
The palace maid stared at her in disdain, looking down on these two people. A powerless prince who would not defend himself and a novice palace maid, what could they do to me?



Why? You don’t like it?


You’re right, I don’t like it,
said Helian Wei Wei with a chuckle. She stomped towards the palace maid and gave her a solid kick.
Helian Wei Wei was an excellent fighter. Without even using martial Qi, just a single kick had the palace maid stunned for quite a while.
Her head was buzzing as she lifted her gaze to glare at Helian Wei Wei.
How dare you, how dare you attack me!


Isn’t it perfectly reasonable for me to hit you?
Helian Wei Wei bent down and patted her face.
You’re just a mere palace maid, yet you have the guts to disrespect His Highness. Hitting you was just a slap on the wrist. Even if you were to be beheaded, you would still deserve it.

The palace maid glared at Helian Wei Wei venomously. She felt so embarrassed, but she understood that Helian Wei Wei was not one to be messed around with. Back then it was just the Third Prince, who had never told the Retired Emperor when she grumbled in front of him. How many days had it been? It had been almost ten days, yet the child did not even dare to let out a whimper, so of course she would take the chance to bully him a little! If it was not for him infuriating the Empress, she would not have to come here to send him food!Read more chapter on our vipnovel.com
Day by day, her courage grew, and soon she forgot about Baili Jia Jue’s identity.
Now, being reminded of it by this little girl, she inevitably felt guilty. Enduring the agonizing pain, she stood up without saying anything more, while continuing to glare at Helian Wei Wei. Then, she ran out of the hall, her figure exuding a sense of hatred that could not be ignored.
Helian Wei Wei did not respect this palace maid either. Since she had hit her, she was not afraid of the Empress behind her. It would be even better if they made so much trouble that that woman came to find her, then she could teach that woman a lesson altogether!
His Highness was so cute right now. Although his tongue was a little sharp, at least he behaved much more normally.


He had not started to tie people up whenever he wished, yet the Empress was still so harsh on him. She must be absolutely crazy!
It was possible that His Highness’s inability to differentiate between human and prey in the future was all the Empress’s fault.
Being abused from a young age would make a child grow crooked, no matter how excellent the child was!
Moreover, the abuser was his own mother!
With this thought in mind, Helian Wei Wei glanced at the little boy nearby. He was standing there silently, his dark hair covering his face, hiding his expression.
Helian Wei Wei’s heart tightened upon the sight, and she walked over to embrace him.
Kiddo, don’t worry, from now on you have me. Nobody will even think about bullying you.
After saying that, she added,
Not even your mother!

Baili Jia Jue was initially still immersed in his thoughts, thinking that the palace maid cannot be kept alive anymore, or else she might expose this stupid lady to everyone. But after being hugged by Helian Wei Wei…all of a sudden, his mind went blank.
The boy held his forehead helplessly. It seemed like he would have to wait till night when everything was quiet to replan his strategy.
Though this lady seemed dumb, she was actually very smart, which could be seen in the way she handled the palace maid. She knew what the other person feared the most, and gave her a hard kick while threatening her lightly, enough to make her feel the pressure.
However, in the imperial palace, one must get things done properly, without leaving behind any traces that could implicate them.


The light in Baili Jia Jue’s eyes dimmed. He did not want her to know that he had been killing people, so this time, there must be no bloodshed.
He could not use any knives, which made it much more difficult for him to kill someone.
If he was noticed by other people, he would be totally ostracized as a prince.
For he knew better than anyone else, that nobody would accept a brutal prince as crown prince.
Whenever he faced problems like this in the past, he would normally spend a long time to solve it, as he needed to calculate every step precisely to prevent any accidents from happening.
It was indeed quite hurried this time, but as long as he put more effort into it, there should not be any problems.
Actually, he was not a person who liked to put too much thought into things.
But for the sake of his prey, he would have to take some risks.
Baili Jia Jue looked at the face before him, which was filled with worry and concern. His hands started itching to tie her up tighter and tighter…

What are you thinking now?
Helian Wei Wei was puzzled. How did she fail to guess what was going on in a child’s mind?


It was fine that she could not understand him fully after he had grown up, but now, he was only eight years old! Why did she still feel that there were stories in his eyes…
Was she thinking too much?
Helian Wei Wei scratched her head.
The boy freed himself from her embrace and said coldly,
I was thinking, now that you have chased away that person, what am I supposed to eat in the future?


You don’t have to worry about that.
Helian Wei Wei smiled broadly.
I’ve noticed a lot of fish in the river outside when I came in just now, we can roast some fish for dinner!
