Perhaps, one would say ‘I love you’ for ample times, but ‘one and only’ was much more touching.
Ah, this fellow had long regarded Qing Zhan as his one and only one, how adorable.
Perhaps it was because Helian Wei Wei was unlucky in love, therefore Nangong Lie was becoming less of an eyesore to her.
The adolescent Nangong Lie was still quite innocent, as he always blushed upon the mention of Qing Zhan’s name, and he trusted in Helian Wei Wei.
Helian Wei Wei patted his shoulder with a sense of loyalty.
If you go and ask Qing Zhan out, she might not show up. So I’ll ask her out on a date and you’ll give her the roses when the moment comes…




Okay. If this thing is successful, I’ll lend you a helping hand no matter what you want to do.

Both of them hit it off right away, huddling together to discuss their plans to court a person…
Shadow was still standing outside the Holy Worship Temple. He initially thought that Young Master Lie would not be able to stand this woman that was sent by His Highness, and he would drive her out soon.
In the end, he had waited for so long yet he did not hear any noise from inside, so there was nothing he could do except returning and reporting to Baili Jia Jue.

Your Highness.
Shadow knelt down on one knee, gazing at the noble young man sitting on the chaise lounge. He hesitated for a while as he did not know how to break the news.
The young man absent-mindedly lifted his fingers from his thin lips, and said indifferently,
Is Ah Lie rejecting it too obvious? Then just bring her ba…

Before the young man could finish his sentence, Shadow spoke, with cold sweat running down his back,
Young Master Lie didn’t reject it, and he made her stay.


Made her stay?
The young man, who was holding a teacup in his hand, paused his movements and his eyes darkened.
Didn’t she make noise about coming back?

Shadow shook his head.
A loud crack resounded in the air!


The young man had crushed the teacup in his palm.
It was hard to differentiate the tea from the blood. The young man’s face was calm and indifferent.
This teacup is too fragile, change to another set and send it over.

Shadow lowered his head further and swallowed hard.
Yes.
That was given by the Retired Emperor, and there were only one or two sets in the world, yet the master had crushed it…

Ah Lie had always disliked someone around him. She won’t be able to stay for much longer,
the deep and cold voice spread to the Shadow’s ear.
Shadow nodded his head promptly.
That is indeed Young Master Lie’s character…

A day had gone by.
However, there was still no news of ‘driving someone out’ from the Holy Worship Temple. Instead, everyone was talking about how the Genius Worshipper had been enlightened, and he had unexpectedly brought a maid out of the palace to pick flowers.

Pick flowers?
The young man sneered upon hearing that.
I didn’t expect the worship official of our dynasty to be so free. Well then, assign more tasks to Young Master Lie so he wouldn’t think that his life is too boring.

Meanwhile, Nangong Lie, who was eagerly trying to court someone, had no idea what was going on. Upon returning to the Holy Worship Temple, he was overwhelmed with tons of official businesses. He had no time for a date, let alone any time for sleeping!

Why are there suddenly so many tasks from the palace?
Nangong Lie pressed his handsome face on the table, feeling extremely worn out. However, he was sensitive enough to notice that something was wrong. His left hand supported his chin languidly and his long eyebrows wrinkled.
It’s so strange.



Helian Wei Wei was his maid after all, and now that they were partners on the same side, naturally, it was her job to be concerned about him.
She found a stove and boiled two bowls of ginger soup, planning to send them to him.
She had never expected to meet Baili Jia Jue at the entrance of the temple. He still looked noble and virtuous, with apathy on his face. His paces were slow and elegant. He was wearing a crescent-colored robe, with a clean, dust-free fur cloak draped around his shoulders. Following behind him was Shadow, who was holding an umbrella for him, and they walked toward Helian Wei Wei unhurriedly.
He lowered his head and gazed at the porcelain bowls in her hands. His eyes, which were already lacking warmth, turned even colder.

Your Highness, my young master is inside.
The student, who still had no idea what was going on, showed Baili Jia Jue the way with a smile on his face.
Baili Jia Jue stepped forward again and kept going, passing by Helian Wei Wei to enter the temple. Nobody knew how tight his fists were clenched under his long sleeves.
Nangong Lie was still lying on the desk. When he noticed Baili Jia Jue’s arrival, he started to pour out his grievances.
Ah Jue, what has been happening in the palace these two days? There’s so much work piled on my desk that I’m exhausted!


Are you?
Baili Jia Jue sat on the chaise lounge and leaned backward, his hands loosening the collar of his fur cloak.
I thought you were having a good time here.

You’ve been going out of the palace to pick flowers and now, you have someone to boil ginger soup for you.
In the past, he was the only one who had that benefit.


But now…heh.
He had known for a long time that he was not special to her.
However, he did not expect that the warmth she once gave only to him, could also be given to someone else.
Ironic, isn’t it?

How am I living comfortably? You did this on purpose, didn’t you? Giving me so many tasks to do.
Nangong Lie was not dumb, he just could not understand the reason why.
What have I done to offend you?

Baili Jia Jue turned his face to the side, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Helian Wei Wei walking in. He spoke coldly,
You’re overthinking things.


Fine, even if I’m overthinking, from tomorrow onward please look for another person to help you get tasks done, such as this corruption case of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, these are beyond my duties.
Nangong Lie clamped a writing brush between his teeth while tapping the letter in his hand. He wanted to hear what Ah Jue had to say about that.
However, Baili Jia Jue could not be bothered much about it.
The underlings must have missent them.

I have been bustling about for so long!
And now you’re telling me that the underlings had missent them!


The corner of Nangong Lie’s lips twitched. If this was not for the fact that His Highness was unhappy with him, what else could it be!
But for some reason, the moment he met Baili Jia Jue’s gaze, he felt as if he had betrayed his brother, causing his scalp to be tingling.
Nangong Lie noticed Helian Wei Wei walking in with some ginger soup, and he tried to change the topic.
Ah Jue, you must be feeling cold after walking all the way here. There’s some ginger soup, would you like to have a bowl?


No thanks.
The young man’s voice was as cold as usual. His eyes were distant as though he was thinking about something.
Nangong Lie understood him.
Oh yeah, you’ve never liked drinking things with weird tastes like this.

Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows. He doesn’t drink this? No wonder he would frown a lot whenever she gave him ginger soup when he was young. So, he actually disliked it…
In that case, she would keep this bowl of ginger soup and drink it herself later.
Helian Wei Wei put the bowl aside. When she leaned over, she happened to see Nangong Lie’s letter to Qing Zhan, and she could not help but burst into laughter.
Nangong Lie turned his head to look and quickly pressed his hand on that piece of paper to cover it.
Don’t tell anyone.


No worries, I won’t.
Helian Wei Wei retracted her gaze with a faint smile and spoke meaningfully.
It seemed that there were little secrets between both of them, and they had a mutual understanding.
The young man who was sitting on the chaise lounge stood up abruptly as though he could no longer bear with the odor of the ginger soup in the room…
