Helian Wei Wei stretched her arms and calves as she absent-mindedly said, “I thought it was successful. The body is just like mine, it even looks exactly the same as I was in modern times.”
Baili Jia Jue tightened his hand that was placed on her waist as he remained silent.
Helian Wei Wei lowered her gaze as she looked at him, “Were you familiar with the previous Helian Wei Wei?”
“I have seen her around.” Baili Jia Jue played with her hair. His voice was clear and distinct as usual, “What is the matter?”
Helian Wei Wei shook her head at once, “Nothing, just…”
She was actually interested to know how he felt toward the previous Helian Wei Wei.
In the dreams, young Helian Wei Wei seemingly gave him some cakes and pastries.
Baili Jia Jue was still an arrogant and unfavored young prince during that time.
On the other hand, Helian Wei Wei was the most loved granddaughter of Old Master Helian. She frequented the palace and enjoyed admiration from peers of the same age.
Apparently, even Baili Jia Jue treated her differently…
Helian Wei Wei looked up and smiled, “It seems like you are very concerned with this body of mine.”
“Should I not care about you?” Baili Jia Jue grabbed the cloak, wrapped her with it and pulled her into his arms.
Helian Wei Wei pondered momentarily and said, “Well, you should care.”
“Why? Am I being too strict on you?” Baili Jia Jue held her wrists in his grasp and he smiled and said, “Your claws have been rather harmless lately.”
Helian Wei Wei beamingly looked at him. “I am the bossy president and is a devoted dog type of person. I will not simply scratch anyone.”
“Why do I feel like I have not tamed you enough.” Baili Jia Jue carried her in his arms and said with a deep voice, “No one is going to take you away from me, not even yourself. Do you understand?”
Helian Wei Wei stared blankly at the sky. “I never said I was going to escape. I obediently allowed you to lock me up. By the way, you should change your lock patterns. It has been the same for a while now and unlocking it is starting to be unchallenging.”
“So, you are treating those locks like toys.” Baili Jia Jue planted a kiss on her earlobes, “But indeed it is time to change them. You like them made out of gold.”
Helian Wei Wei looked at him seriously. “You do not have to go through so much trouble to make me happy. I would prefer you to change the lock into money.”
“How did you manage to become a Princess Consort with such a crude taste.” Baili Jia Jue let out a long sigh, but the smile on his face was easily noticeable.
Helian Wei Wei casually leaned on him as she said, “It was your choice. You can still request for a return.”
Return?
Baili Jia Jue looked at her and squinted his eyes as he ultimately grabbed her hand and toyed with it. “Sometimes I feel like you are a clever person, but sometimes I cannot help but imagine if you have cotton balls in your head. I gave you access to my finances and expenses from the very beginning, have you forgotten?”
Indeed, she had forgotten all about it!
Baili Jia Jue knew she failed to remember as he saw her facial expression. He smiled and stood up, “So, just take the money you need on your own. Why do you keep asking me for things?”

She could not have said that she was accustomed to benefiting at others’ expense. It was as if Helian Wei Wei thought of something as she frowned and said, “So, does that mean that your daily expenses would have to go through me?”
“Yup.” Baili Jia Jue replied lightly as he opened his collar.
Helian Wei Wei smiled as she said, “That’s great.” If His Highness were to misbehave, she would learn from him and only allow him to eat vegetables.
“You do not need the prince to remind you that even if I have no money, I would not end up with no meat to feast on.” Baili Jia Jue threw his shirt aside and looked at her playfully as he continued, “I am still in charge of what we eat today or what we eat tomorrow. The Imperial Kitchen still listens to me. The money is under your control, but you are mine to control. Come over.”
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…”
