Helian Wei Wei chose not to respond.
She was forcefully carried by him into his arms. One of his arms was on the side of her body while the other was busy undressing her nightgown. His slender fingers were slightly cool. “Do you want to be on top or under today, hmm?”
“Neither.” Helian Wei Wei planted her face on his inner garment as she said, “I want to go to bed, my eyes are hurting.”
Baili Jia Jue stopped his motion at once as he frowned and asked, “What happened to your eyes?”
“My eyes are tired.” Helian Wei Wei was looking for an excuse.
Baili Jia Jue chose not to let her sleep. Instead, he pulled her over to him as he grabbed a bottle of Tianshan snow lotus powder and scattered it on her eyelids.
As she picked up the scent of the powder, Helian Wei Wei knew it was Tianshan snow lotus. The fragrance fused lightly with the scent of the man.
“You are so rich. Even your eye drops are made out of Tianshan snow lotus.” It was apparent that his wealth was extraordinary and special care was given to his body.
With an attempt to smile, Baili Jia Jue looked at her and uttered, “What are you going on about?”
“Not much. I was just wondering if your family is aware of how wealthy you are.” Helian Wei Wei yawned absent-mindedly. She frowned as she mindlessly thought of the dream.
As he curled up the corner of his mouth, Baili Jia Jue said leisurely. “Of course, my assets are all controlled by my wife. Are you not certain about that?”
Helian Wei Wei had already been agitated after the dream and intended to get into a huff with His Highness.
Who knew that she would neither be able to outspeak him nor extract any information. Hence, she closed her eyes with a calm expression and scraped the pillow every now and then.
Baili Jia Jue pulled her into his arms as he patted her back with his left hand. With a pleasant and deep voice, he then said, “Are you upset that I have more money than you do?” After all, she did mention that she wanted to become the wealthiest person in the War Dragon Empire. Though hardly any ordinary person would regard that aim as a lifelong goal, it was clear that this lady here was part of the minuscule population.
“What do you mean your money. That’s mine.” Helian Wei Wei became full of life as she said, “What is yours is also mine, do you understand?”
With a charming smile, Baili Jia Jue placed his hand behind his head and affirmed, “Understood, boss.”
“Not bad.” Helian Wei Wei felt satisfied as her smile widened gradually.
As he arched his brows, Baili Jia Jue asked, “What about yours?”
“Mine? Of course, they are still mine.” Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes and placed her head on his chest.
Baili Jia Jue smiled lightly, “After all the talk about not scratching. You are essentially a bandit.”
“Well, you could still request for a return.” Helian Wei Wei lowered her voice. The final parts of the sentence were spoken in an obscure voice.
Baili Jia Jue squinted his phoenix eyes that were exquisitely profound. It was as if his violent tendencies were rushing out as he said with a threatening accent, “Do not let me hear the word return again, or else…”
