“The complaint hotline was either busy or unanswered.” The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, “In the end, all I got was neglect and now my heart has turned cold.”
The old woman that was by his side gave him a pat, her voice came out a little hoarse, “Forget it, just treat it as buying a lesson. We outsiders can’t afford to mess with the locals.”
The middle-aged man accepted the words of his old mother, but there was nothing that could lighten up the mood of the family of four.
Helian Wei Wei looked at them, her voice was very light, but her eyes were full of tenacity. She walked up to the old woman and said, “Granny, you can rest assured, I would definitely help you return this jade bracelet. Keep your receipt and bracelet well, don’t lose them and don’t fiddle with the bracelet anymore. After two days, someone will give you a proper explanation.”
The old woman was touched by Helian Wei Wei’s words, but she shook her head, “Young lady, if you help us, those people may not even let you off. I know you are a lawyer, but after all, you are still a lady, what if something happens to you?”
Knowing that the old woman really cared about her, Helian Wei Wei gave a gentle smile and pushed Baili Jia Jue forward, “With him here, granny, you don’t have to worry. My husband is very powerful and capable in combat. We don’t fear them.”
Baili Jia Jue did not expect to be presented in front of others that way. He glanced back to see her furry head, pleasant to hear her calling him ‘husband’, so he just followed along.
However, even if he loved being pampered, His Highness could hardly conceal his nobility.
When the old woman looked up and saw him, she tirelessly praised His Highness for his good looks as if she was watching him through a television. Then she looked at the pair of little ones standing behind Helian Wei Wei, they were simply adorable.
The middle-aged man saw that his elderly mother’s mood had slightly softened, and the air of melancholy that surrounded her had dissipated profusely. He was not aware of the reason behind this, perhaps it was because the couple right in front of him stood out inordinately from the rest. A hint of hope rekindled in his heart, perhaps there was a chance that this jade bracelet could really be returned.
Helian Wei Wei asked the middle-aged man some other matters and he answered accordingly. About 10 minutes later, the two families separated, one went to Renmin Road and the other to Westerner Street.
Little Qingchen staggered as he walked next to Baili Jia Jue, he strove to keep up with his father’s steps.
Baili Jia Jue’s attitude toward the two little ones were fair. He gave them all the freedom they needed, so one should never expect him to hold Little Qingchen’s hand while walking. If there was ever too much of a gap between them, His Highness would simply carry the little one by his collar and continue on his way.
Little Qingchen swayed his pair of short legs, looking like a plastic bag being carried by his Imperial Father. After blinking twice blankly, he turned his head to look at Helian Wei Wei and Baili Shangxie.
As an elder brother, Baili Shangxie was the one who knew his father’s virtue best. He quickly rescued his little brother from the hands of His Highness, then he clumsily held his brother in his embrace and walked on. Back when he was younger, he was carried around by his father like a plastic bag, so he must not let his little brother go through the same suffering like him. It looked extremely stupid.
Little Qingchen was held by his elder brother who was only a head taller than himself. As he talked, he had to twist his body around. There was a logical and rigorous tone in his milky voice, “Pretty Wei Wei, it was all staged from the beginning to the end. The uncle must have been deceived by the driver and the tour guide, who were both in it together.”
Little Qingchen said it in his most indifferent tone ever. As he spoke, he did not forget to take a bite out of the chocolate cake that Baili Shangxie handed to him.

To them, the cake was the most important matter. The two little ones had bought six pieces of chocolate cake with their own pocket money. They originally intended to eat them after going back, but it seemed like they could no longer resist the temptation.
Helian Wei Wei rubbed the little one’s head. Qingchen had a lot of inhuman abilities since he was a child, among them were a highly retentive memory and hyperintelligence. Although he did not seem to have magic powers, in reality, all the ghosts would automatically hide when they saw him.
That was why she did not worry about Qingchen’s disappearance from the beginning.
As for this recent matter, it was just like what Qingchen said.
There was something fishy about both the driver and the tour guide. The drivers were responsible for running the perimeters. When they came across tourists, they would first get comfortable with the tourists to eliminate all wariness. Then they would put on an act and unintentionally bring those people to the travel agency. In fact, the tour guides that were stationed there would then take over. These drivers must have benefited a lot from being the middlemen. Although she had no idea how they shared the profits specifically, it was obvious that the whole thing was a trap from the beginning. These kinds of trickery should happen quite often in Li City. Otherwise, they would not have encountered the same situation at the airport. If this was the case, the missing female college student… As if she suddenly thought of something, Helian Wei Wei’s gaze sharpened, then she burst into laughter, “Well, today’s shopping time is over. We’ll go back and sleep now. Tomorrow, we will follow the driver to see who is behind the scene, supporting these tour guides…”
Tomorrow?
For those who dared to challenge Helian Wei Wei’s plan, His Highness would not wait until the next day to deal with them.
After arriving at the inn, while Helian Wei Wei was washing herself, Baili Jia Jue who was lying in bed and flipping a magazine reached out and placed the magazine on the bedhead, then he deliberately adjusted his sleeves slowly.
The two little boys just came out of their showers. Little Qingchen was wearing a long bathrobe, with his hair still wet. He shook his little head twice, then turned around and asked Baili Shangxie, “Where is Imperial Father going?”
“Hunting.” When Baili Shangxe said this word, a bloodthirsty crimson look flashed across his eyes, then with a cool face he took a hairdryer that was larger than his own hand and helped Little Qingchen blow dry his hair.
Little Qingchen was very well-behaved. He sat on the bed with his two short legs crossed, poking at his palm again and again.
When Helian Wei Wei came out to take the shower gel, she saw the scene without noticing the empty bed to the left. She fetched her phone, took a picture of the two little ones and posted it on her moments.
“Elder brother helping his younger brother blow dry his hair, what a dead serious face.”
In the blink of an eye, her moments heated up!
The barbaric men could not sit still anymore, especially Old A. He held his mobile phone as he exerted all his strength on typing, demanding that he go to Li City immediately!
Of course, there were other voices as well.
In fact, Helian Wei Wei rarely used WeChat. She would only post a status when she thought of it. This current post was more than a year apart from the previous one. Her sudden posting also coincidentally clashed with the period of time when everyone would be swiping through their WeChat’s, so it was natural for her former classmates to have seen it.
At a dining table in a random restaurant in Beijing, a person was pointing at the mobile phone while speaking to Rich Lady Cheng, “Mengmeng, quickly look. It’s Helian Wei Wei who was previously your rival for campus belle! She has children now. She even had two sons in one go and both of them look amazingly handsome.”
