It didn’t even take a day for the news that the Hei family’s second young master wanted to marry Helian Wei Wei to spread throughout the entire White Academy.

Reportedly, when Elder Hei heard Hei family’s second young master raise this kind of notion, he was so angry that he almost banished his most beloved grandson from the clan.

How could a descendant of the grand Hei family marry an infamous good-for-nothing.

This simply was a joke.

“Your Highness, you don’t know it, but this academy’s started to get noisy.” While Eunuch Sun was recounting the rumors he heard, he was shaking his head. “What do you think? What ability could that miss from the Helian family possibly have, with such swarthy looks, that Master Hei would take a fancy to her?”

Clang!

The black chess piece rang sharply as it fell on the chessboard, Baili Jia Jue flicked his sleeve and stood up, his tall and straight back was as straight as a pine, so emotionless and detached it made people to feel not the slightest warmth from it.

Eunuch Sun was flabbergasted. The hand pouring tea froze in mid air. Just now, His Highness became……angry?

Why?

Eunuch Sun started to backtrack to find what he did wrong. Could it be because he accepted the Superior Compound’s invitation without permission?

Mm, couldn’t be. His Highness clearly also agreed to go.

Then what else was there?

Eunuch Sun wracked his brains, but he still couldn’t figure out where the problem was. While the carefree and leisurely Nangong Lie wickedly laughed, “Somebody unexpectedly didn’t have his eyes open and touched the house pet he most recently was interested in. Ah, I really want to wrap it up quickly and go see what he’s going to do.”

“High Priest, who are you referring to?” The Eunuch was puzzled as he looked at the reigning divination genius and slightly raised his eyebrows, “Is finding him going to resolve the drought this time?”

Nangong Lie coughed fiercely twice as he recalled that he was in the middle of divining a prophecy. He waved him off in a wide arc and continued to mutter to himself.

-At the Inferior Compound-

As usual, Wei Wei was leaning over the wooden desktop, fiddling with those armament components.

Every one of the surrounding students was gazing pensively at her as they whispered and gestured.

They also didn’t know why whenever they faced this good-for-nothing’s gaze, they’d subconsciously feel scared.

Actually, Wei Wei really didn’t have any intent other than wanting to know what this group of people were up to. They were abnormally excited today.

Yet, before she even opened her mouth to ask, a messenger came to say that Third Prince wanted to use his handkerchief, the one that was blown away by the wind should’ve been washed already.

People with OCD get attached to some of their personal belongings. Wei Wei understood this.

That’s why Wei Wei didn’t sell the handkerchief this time, and after seriously washing it, she brought that handkerchief and followed Shadow to head for the Superior Compound.

Indistinct sounds of bamboo drumming, green orioles (type of bird) chirping. The fog was rising; beneath the carved white jade arch bridge extended a pool of freshwater. Within this kind of weather, not only was there no ice cold chill dispersing, on the contrary, heat was steaming and curling up.
