Chapter 937 - His Highness’ Malevolence

937 His Highness’ Malevolence

Little Qingcheng still held onto the rope in his tiny hand, wearing a little leather hat on his head. He wobbled along unsteadily as he trailed behind Baili Shangxie and gazed at the people breezing past him with wide eyes.

In order not to alarm the enemy, Helian Wei Wei did not allow His Highness’ men to dispatch. This was so that their family of four would look like mere tourists that came to visit Li City based on both their appearance and schedules.

Baili Jia Jue had always hated sunny places and Baili Shangxie was no different. Each of them, one tall the other tiny, wore a pair of dark sunglasses that obscured most of their face.

Nevertheless, Baili Jia Jue still stirred up a commotion when he appeared in the airport hall.

No matter in ancient or modern eras, he was like a shiny beacon. His long, slender figure would instantly capture everybody’s attention, even when he was drowned in a crowd.

He had short silver hair paired contrastingly with solid black sunglasses and a pale, elegant side profile women could only dream of. Along with his handsome, chiseled features, all the people who came to catch their plane were misled to think some superstar had arrived.

However, even a superstar might not have the aura of someone like him.

He donned the season’s latest trench coat and, coupled with his tall stature and slender legs, it effortlessly personified the refined elegance of high street fashion. When perceived from a certain angle, one could only see his straight, sculpted nose and perfect, thin lips.

Baili Shangxie was right beside him. The father-son duo was the exact epitome of sophistication, resembling aristocratic vampires that walked out from a television.

If you thought His Highness would carry any luggage then boy, were you wrong.

Throughout the entire journey, as viewed from afar, one would see an amazingly handsome man idly stride by and behind him, Helian Wei Wei with her long hair and equally long legs hauling along a huge leather suitcase.

Even Baili Shangxie could not stand him. Though he knew his Imperial Father was shameless, only now did he realize he had underestimated its severity. He even made his Imperial Mother carry their luggage!

Baili Jia Jue did not care about his son’s opinions. To him, ordering Helian Wei Wei around was a fun way to pass time, since this implied that he would be free to do other things in the meantime.

For example, while she carried their luggage, he could feed her sips of water.

Just like how he took care of Little Phoenix back then.

As Baili Jia Jue pondered this, his lips curved upward slightly out of Helian Wei Wei’s field of sight. He used his slender fingers to twist open a bottle cap and casually handed the bottle over to Helian Wei Wei…

Helian Wei Wei was none the wiser as she tirelessly lugged the suitcase along. There was no shortage of huffs and puffs from her. However, when she was thirsty, Baili Jia Jue would stop and let her have a drink.

His Highness evidently disliked this place and the same was true for Little Baili Shangxie.

Once the two stately people stepped out of the airport, they were greeted by piercing sunlight. They both had the same initial reaction to this unwelcome sunshine and furrowed their brows in unison with a frown.

Helian Wei Wei found the scene a little too hilarious. She reached out for His Highness’ hand and yanked him close. “Is it too sunny?”

“Yeah.” Baili Jia Jue muttered in a cold, stoic voice, but it was different from how he normally sounded in front of other people. “There are too many people and the sun is also too strong.”

Baili Shangxie glared at his Imperial Father disapprovingly. As a demon with divine consciousness, how could he possibly be afraid of the sun? He could unmistakably just cast some protection over himself instead of being this pathetic in front of Imperial Mother.

He finally knew why his Imperial Mother appointed herself as a bossy president now.

Due to a certain somebody’s shamelessness, which was much more audacious than he had expected, there was basically no other option.

In certain aspects, both father and son were quite in tune with each other’s thoughts.

Baili Jia Jue slowly turned to face his son’s direction when he noticed Baili Shangxie’s glare.

Those eyes were full of unspoken thoughts that could only be deciphered by the two of them.

Baili Shangxie had zero interest in spoiling his Imperial Father’s fun, thus he looked away and continued to roll up Little Qingchen’s sleeves.

Helian Wei Wei also found the sun’s rays too strong, so she raised her scarf to provide some shade.

Little Qingchen was even more simple-minded. He strode forward and used his small body to wholly shield Baili Shangxie from the sun. In one hand, he held a bottle of newly purchased chilled milk, which he handed over to Baili Shangxie to drink.

The big luggage was just wide enough for Little Qingchen to sit on. Baili Jia Jue did not think twice before he fished Little Qingchen up with one hand and flung him onto the luggage. Then, he signaled Baili Shangxie to push it.

I have never seen such a happy-go-lucky dad before.

Fortunately, Little Baili Shangxie was very reliable, and as he was the scariest little master to roam the underworld, pushing a suitcase was a piece of cake for him.

To prevent Little Qingchen from tumbling down, Baili Shangxie even cautiously crossed his other tiny arm in front of the suitcase, his cool little face etched with seriousness.

Helian Wei Wei was left with only a small suitcase to carry. She could even carry it in one hand with no problem.

Since they were disguised as tourists, they could not drive their BMW Tomahawk and sports car. S and the lot would have to wait in place for orders and only appear when summoned.

Their accommodation had been booked in advance. It was not some fanciful hotel but simply a quaint local homestay, which would allow them to better understand Li City.

Before Helian Wei Wei arrived, Young Master Tang had given her a document.

The document stated that a university student on vacation here tried to report something online, but she had gone missing before she managed to expose what happened.

Helian Wei Wei could only base her investigation’s starting point off the location this university student was last spotted at.

An international quality homestay of good repute.

Helian Wei Wei believed this homestay would not pose any problems, but at least she would be able to obtain an understanding of the environment the university student was in before her disappearance.

There were many taxis outside the airport and with a wave of her arm, Helian Wei Wei managed to hail one. She sat in the backseat with her two children.

Baili Jia Jue sat in the front with his long legs, extruding an aura of nobility.

The taxi driver’s eyes sparkled at the sight of them and he narrated the culture and people of Li City as he drove and inquired, “I bet it’s the first time the two of you are visiting Li City, have you found a nice place to stay?”

Baili Jia Jue did not speak. He simply tipped his head over and gave him a pointed look.

This one single glance shut the taxi driver up immediately.

He did not know what this feeling was but it felt like his whole soul was being sucked out. Thankfully, he returned to his senses quickly. Both his hands were clammy with cold sweat as his heart clenched from unfounded fear.

Am I dreaming? Why are this person’s eyes r-red?

Pleased with the silence, Baili Jia Jue’s head pivoted back to face the front as he leaned an arm on the open window, staring at the scenery through his sunglasses. His silver hair whipped around in the wind to reveal his proud forehead that exuded a high regality. Regardless of any mode of transportation he took, all of his simple mindless motions were worthy of a photoshoot…
