Chapter 957: Selling Your Soul To Me
Baili Jia Jue rubbed his thin lips smilingly, "Just showing that I've been hiding from sunlight, that's it. How can this be counted as a misunderstanding? I never liked sunlight anyway."
Baili Shangxie chuckled, "Your body is not that weak, isn't it?" He knew that the tearing of space-time continuum had backfired adversely on Imperial Father. Even so, he could still destroy the whole world. However, now he can't even bear a tiny streak of sunlight? Oh, come on, of course, he can. After all, devils have no sense of pain. He is deliberately pretending to act like a seriously injured patient. What a shameless man!
The little one's face turned even cooler and cuter at the same time. Holding the bowl, he focused on feeding Little Qingchen. Anyhow, nobody could stop Imperial Father from pretending. He began to realize that Imperial Father's shamelessness had improved by leaps and bounds ever since he found Imperial Mother. Although Imperial Father used to be tricky in the past, he showed apparent indifference to almost everything other than being slightly brutal. However, he was a totally different person in front of the Imperial Mother by pretending to be weak all day long. He had enough of this.
Baili Jia Jue never really cared about what his son thought of him.
He was a devil and his interests laid in conniving and cooking up sneaky schemes.
Nevertheless, he knew Little Phoenix disliked him killing people.
Hence, he was fully relying on her to take care of his current biological needs.
In that case, he would have to think of some ways to get her laid down on the bed willingly.
He liked it when she was taking the initiatives as her face would always turn rosy. That made him want to bully her even more.
Casting his eyes on the silhouette moving in front of him, Baili Jia Jue touched his thin lips as he curled his lips upward to form a smile...
Beautiful City was indeed a nice place with flowery scents lingering around, coupled with the pervading aroma of food.
The two little ones went to bed early. Baili Shangxie helped Little Qingchen to wash and dry his hair. They then changed into their pajamas and started to play with the reapers.
Yes, they were playing with the reapers.
This somehow freaked the surrounding souls out and made them shudder.
Meanwhile, the reapers were crying their eyes out as they were forced to wear wigs and put on lipstick. They wanted nothing but to get back to hell as soon as possible.
These two little devils were the nemesis of their lives!
Seeing the brothers were having fun, Helian Wei Wei dragged His Highness out for a stroll. Since he could not go out during the daytime, it should be fine to go out at night.
The hearty dinner left Helian Wei Wei rather stuffed. That was because whatever being picked out by His Highness ended up in her stomach at the end of the day.
While strolling, Baili Jia Jue stretched out his hand to rub her stomach as he had her in his arms.
Laying in his arms smilingly, Helian Wei Wei held his other hand and her eyes sparkled with interest upon seeing the snacks by the roadside.
However, Baili Jia Jue would not buy her anything, or else she would be rolling over with an upset stomach.
"This looks good, it's spicy. That one too." Helian Wei Wei only loved three things in her life and they were nothing more than money, appearance, and food. Thus, she felt like eating everything in sight since they were in the ancient city now.
Baili Jia Jue pulled her back and spoke in a faint tone, "I thought you are on diet?"
Speaking of keeping fit, this was the recent resolution made by Helian Wei Wei after she came across a Southern girl when they reached Beautiful City. Unlike Northern girls, Southern girls looked more petite with a gentle demeanor. Taking a glance at her own height, Helian Wei Wei decided to control her food intake.
This made Baili Jia Jue frown as his greatest joy was to feed her. In spite of that, His Highness was smart enough to say nothing but lured her with delicious food instead.
It turned out that Helian Wei Wei had eaten half a bowl of rice more than usual instead of eating less for her dinner!
Up until now, Helian Wei Wei was still unaware of His Highness' plan. She immediately averted her yearning gaze upon hearing Baili Jia Jue's reminder and replied to him, "That's right, keep on supervising me in the future."
With a half-smile playing on his lips, Baili Jia Jue pulled the person in his arms over and kissed her forehead. Of course, I should be the one to feed my pet. She shall not be eating all those junk food outside. He thought to himself.
His Highness had always been a domineering person, but his domineering nature was overshadowed by his cunning wiles.
Helian Wei Wei would not say much even if she were to find out the truth. His Highness could just feed her as he wished, as long as he was happy.
In fact, Helian Wei Wei was not fat at all.
She just looked slightly taller than the Southern girls.
Still and all, she had a nice, curvy figure along with a pair of long legs and slim waist, not to mention her eye-catching bosom. These features had accentuated her beauty, making her look even more strikingly gorgeous in the ethnic dress.
Helian Wei Wei's appearance was nowhere near the prototypical girl next door, let alone innocent. Her beauty resembled the red spider lilies blooming in the dark like a raging fire.
People might see her as some femme fatale-type of a bad woman.
This was why at that time, many said that the Emperor had never loved Phoenix wholeheartedly, for she did not look like a decent woman.
When she held the scythe, she looked cold and brutal.
When she chanted the sutra, she showed no sign of kindness. Instead, she was always in a languid manner, unlike others who looked pure and spotless. Hence the people in Buddhism once said, she would never be treated wholeheartedly by any man despite her elegance and gorgeousness.
They thought the Emperor would be the same.
Never did they think that Baili Jia Jue loved Helian Wei Wei just the way she was. His most gorgeous Phoenix could always allure him easily and made him feel like possessing her. He just wanted her to belong to him alone.
Nonetheless, before Baili Jia Jue did that, Helian Wei Wei lifted her head with a clear gaze, "Let's re-sign the contract."
Stunned, Baili Jia Jue lifted his gaze and looked at her, "Are you planning to sell your soul to me?"
"When you tore the space-time continuum, the effect of the contract was affected, wasn't it? Or else you should be able to locate me instantly," Helian Wei Wei analyzed as she spoke. "The signing of an exclusive contract will grant the devil invincibility. Since you have been harmed by the backfire, I can help you to regain your power."
So, she doesn't mind selling her soul to the devil?
Baili Jia Jue stretched his hand out and hugged her harder. He would not reject such a suggestion for sure.
Long ago, he had been thinking of dragging her into the darkness so that they could be together forever.
However, he was reluctant to do so every single time.
Now, he could own her entirely at last.
Baili Jia Jue would certainly not hesitate. It was just that the contract was not a single-sided deal.
On top of that, it was coupled with the devil's submission to the covenantor.
This indicated that Helian Wei Wei would in fact be the real master in this relationship.
She gave him her soul, but he gave her everything...
