Chapter 117
Chapter 116: The Joke, Wei Wei
Helian Wei Wei just stood in the midst of these kinds of disdainful gazes from thousands of people, billows and billows of gazes, her fresh and elegant face appeared as if it wasn’t the least bit bothered by people’s discussion. Her pair of clear and limpid eyes slowly scanned all around, and finally fell on Helian Jiao Er’s body. "Family? Have you forgotten, I have already been driven out from the Helian clan by you and that ungrateful father."
"This Helian family’s eldest daughter is indeed crude. Look at the younger sister and look again at the elder sister, merely by their appearance alone, one could already tell who is benevolent and who is evil."
"Come on, a person who ran away from the academy with a man in the middle of the night, how good can they be."
Listening to the sounds of everyone’s comments, Helian Jiao Er lowered her head and insincerely used a handkerchief to wipe at the corners of her eyes. "I know Oldest Sister loathes me in her heart." After saying that, she slowly moved her gaze from Wei Wei’s body and withdrew it. With an empathic expression, she smiled modestly at everyone. "Everyone, don’t talk about Elder Sister like that, it’ll just upset her. Just blame it on me."
As expected, this again stirred up another show of approval for the beautiful and kind person.
Wei Wei’s cinnabar colored lips slanted down in disinterest. A set of people in front, a set of people behind, Helian Jiao Er didn’t tire of playing these kinds of cheap tricks, but she was tired of watching them.
Helian Jiao Er gripped her handkerchief and spoke as if she was hesitating. "However, Elder Sister hasn’t even touched armaments before, why would you come to an armament convention? Did you deliberately come just to make your life more interesting? If it’s truly like that, then this younger sister, um, advises Elder Sister to stop it."
Wei Wei narrowed her eyes and looked at the expressions of everyone beneath the stage. Sure enough, there was somewhat more disdain. Those gazes which fell on her body seemed as if they were looking at the smelly bugs inside the gutters, exuding a strong feeling of disgust.
She really didn’t care in the least and slowly smiled in a perfectly composed way. Withdraw? She still hadn’t won money yet, heh, why would she withdraw?
Hei Ze also didn’t know that Wei Wei would appear here. After all, when they’d talked it over, these circ.u.mstances hadn’t been in play.
At that time, they talked about bringing the armaments from their armament shop to the auction to sell.
That’s why during these couple of days, Hei Ze had always been over at the auction gaining experience. He waited for half a day, yet didn’t see his partner. He even thought that the other party probably wouldn’t show up.
He didn’t expect that she actually would immediately take part in an armament compet.i.tion as soon as she arrived!
Hei Ze furrowed his brows. His eyes didn’t blink as they stared at the activity onstage, his entire face was an expression of seriousness.
This made the book boy following by his side somewhat unable to adjust……
At the other side, the imperial guard sitting inside another private room anxiously lifted his brows. "Young master, the gambling joint opened with overly high stakes this time. If this Helian Wei Wei fails
"So it’s like that." The beautiful youngster sitting at the seat of honor seemed as if he didn’t hear the sound of the imperial guard’s words as he talked to himself. "It’s a technique to change one’s appearance? Eh? Doesn’t look like it."
The light in the imperial guard’s eyes sparkled. "Change of appearance?" What their aristocratic family specialized in was precisely appearance changing techniques, and their young master’s appearance changing techniques were considered to be one of the best within Dragon War Empire. No matter who the other party was, or how they’ve changed, the young master could always immediately distinguish their true appearance.
That beautiful youngster seemed as if he’d come across an extremely fascinating matter. His long and narrow eyes were so bright they s.h.i.+ned somewhat. "I truly didn’t expect that the Helian family’s good-for-nothing disgraced daughter’s true appearance was like that. He-he, interesting. Truly extremely interesting."
That imperial guard was having more and more difficulty making sense of what his young master was saying.
However, what made him apprehensive was the light in his young master’s eyes, that kind of contemplation which seemed as if he found a plaything that pleased his eyes.
And the plaything that pleased the young master’s eyes, under normal circ.u.mstances, only had one ending, and that was destruction……
This was actually even inherited from ‘that’ person.
When compared to that Highness, the young master could still be considered cute. At the very least, when he could not obtain the thing he wanted, his temper would just go off until it’s finished and that’s it.
However, that other Highness……his thoughts were deep, there’s no one who was capable of escaping from him.
When he was younger, the young master was entrapped by that Highness very miserably.
The imperial guard silently turned his head and took another glance at the beautiful youngster with delicate features.
He wondered if the young master still bore a grudge against that Highness for the matter of tricking him into wearing female clothes……
"What is it?" The beautiful youngster slapped the tabletop. His long and narrow eyes looked up and over, sweeping a glance at the imperial guard.
That imperial guard thought long and hard about how to phrase his words before responding. "Subordinate received news which came from the imperial palace."
After hearing the two words imperial palace, the beautiful youngster’s back shook slightly as he curved his lips into a cold smile. "Continue."
"It seems that Highness has also come." The imperial guard lifted his head towards the sky. "Right now, it’s unknown if he’s entered the city, however, the journey should’ve been a secret. Not even one imperial guard was brought along."
Bang!
That beautiful youngster grabbed the imperial guard’s collar and dragged him over while his voice was kept down very low. "Find an opportunity to capture him."
"Young Master, that’s His Highness the Prince." The imperial guard wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead as he thought to himself [even if you guy are cousins, you still should not be this brash, sigh].
The beautiful youngster’s narrow eyes narrowed further. "Don’t worry, listen to this young master. Deal with him!"
Ever since ancient times, Armament City had been different compared to other cities.
Because it possessed a special status and was basically not under the imperial family’s control.
In short, the beautiful youngster only wanted to convey one idea, and that idea was that this place was their territory. They could catch whoever they wanted to catch!
The imperial guard thought and thought before speaking. "You should still think it over for a bit, OK? Right now, your health still has not recovered and is not fit enough to directly go against His Highness the prince."
"Don’t need to think it over!" The beautiful youngster exposed two beautiful canines. "That year, when he tricked me into wearing women’s clothes, he also didn’t think over anything! This young master will say once again, deal with him! Right now, he actually doesn’t possess any bit of qi, very convenient for making a move!"
The imperial guard coughed fiercely, he especially wanted to say ‘young master, is it good for us to fight a one-sided battle like that?’
But then he recalled how when the young master and His Highness were merely children, they were already simply more shameless than anyone else……
"Yes." Ultimately, the imperial guard accepted the order.
The beautiful youngster smiled and instructed seriously. "Capture him alive."
Imperial guard:……this…… no one would dare to kill that Highness, right?
"Fine. You can leave now, I still want to continue to watch this good show." The beautiful youngster waved his hands and looked through them at Wei Wei’s face as he mixed in a hint of something different from previously.
Using the ident.i.ty of a man to approach me?
Ah, contrary to expectations, this Helian Wei Wei was seriously clever.
It’s just that he didn’t know if she truly could differentiate armaments, or if she’s only pretending……
In fact, almost everybody believed it to be a joke that Wei Wei came to the armament convention.
They hadn’t forgotten that a month ago, Wei Wei shamelessly partic.i.p.ated at that little armament test at Phoenix Tower.
And the outcome was that she merely stayed in there not more than a moment before Master Tu Tian impatiently drove her out.
And now, at this kind of gathering of armament masters, in a sacred place, she even dared to come and make a scene. This, she was just simply humiliating herself!
