"But, Ajue..." Nangong Lie dared to raise his eyebrows without fear and continued, "It is said that the kitten was actually born in the Protector Mansion?"

Baili Jia Jue swiftly tore open his robe, his expression turning cold. "Are you here to meddle in my affairs or collect gossip?" he asked.

"I am a person who knows everything in the world," Nangong Lie replied, blinking his left eye mischievously. "And when I'm bored, I might just read a few fortunes for you."

Baili Jia Jue picked up a wine glass from the side and shook it slowly. His handsome profile revealed no joy or anger. "If you're going to talk about the Red Bird Star Movement, you can leave," he said.

"Hehe, I know that the Supreme Old Man must have already informed you before me, but he probably didn't tell you..." Nangong Lie suddenly lowered his voice, his tone filled with wickedness. "That red bird of yours is likely the little cat that has been teasing you."

Baili Jia Jue untied his robe and turned around, pacing slowly towards an expensive lotus barrel. He glanced at Nangong Lie expressionlessly and warned, "You better not do anything unnecessary."

Nangong Lie straightened himself elegantly, lounging on a nearby chaise longue and yawning lazily. He spoke with a lazy tone, "Ajue, shouldn't you show some mercy and let her go?"

"Let her go? What nonsense are you talking about?" Lord Bariga placed his slender legs on the ebony desk.

He reached out and tossed his robe aside, a lock of black hair falling disobediently in front of his eyes.

Suddenly, he smiled—an audacious smile that carried a devilish coolness, making people shudder. "The thrill of hunting lies in enjoying the process. If the prey is too easy to catch, it's not interesting," he said with a sinister laugh. "Hehe... In the end, he laughed twice, a laugh that made Nangong Lie's hair stand on end. This... This wasn't enough. If he didn't derive pleasure from killing, he would slowly torture the person... It seems that Ah Jue is already planning to deal with that 'kitten.' Miss Helian from the Helian family, you better hold on!"

"Achoo... Achoo! Helian Weiwei rubbed the tip of her nose with her slender fingers, not knowing who was talking about her, causing her to sneeze three times in a row.

Although one night couldn't turn her into a genius envied by everyone, she had at least regained her martial energy. She was no longer the useless waste she used to be!

Helian Weiwei breathed in the fresh air unique to ancient times and was about to pick a bunch of strawberries from her spatial storage to satisfy her hunger when she heard a piercing sneer next to her.

"Second sister, I heard that someone shamelessly attempted to participate in the martial arts summoning order and was disgracefully expelled by Tu Lao. The scene was truly magnificent!"

It was Helian Mei, cutting flowers with scissors while casting a contemptuous glance at Helian Weiwei.

"Third sister!" Helian Jiao'er lightly scolded, holding Helian Mei's arm. "Don't say such things in front of others. Beware of someone retaliating and accusing you of bullying her."

Helian Mei widened her eyes. "She dares! A waste like her still thinks she's capable. Second sister, you don't know, Taibai Academy has sent letters. I bet within three days, she'll be completely expelled from Taibai Academy! She really believes that having Helian family blood running through her veins makes her invincible in the world. How ridiculous! She's nothing more than a worthless existence. Unlike you, second sister, who is a true talent!"

"I'm nothing special. Don't speak nonsense," Helian Jiao'er said modestly, though a trace of smugness flickered in her eyes.

Helian Weiwei remained silent the entire time, lazily tossing strawberries into the air with one hand. The smile at the corner of her mouth was wicked and cold.

This puzzled the two scheming sisters. Why was she so calm today? According to their past encounters, they would have already quarreled and exchanged insults openly. But today, she was unexpectedly quiet...

"Hey, Helian Weiwei! Can't you hear us talking to you?" Helian Mei couldn't help but get angry.

Helian Weiwei raised her hand, casually blew on her fingers, and spoke slowly, "Third sister, who taught you to speak to me like this? Shouldn't you know that the elder sister is like a mother? Or did your mother only teach you how to snatch husbands without imparting any other knowledge?"

"You!" Helian Mei angrily twisted the flowers in her hand. "You're asking for trouble! I'll make sure to play you to death!"

Helian Weiwei lazily yawned, not taking Helian Mei's threat seriously.

Meanwhile, Helian Jiao'er desperately pulled Helian Mei away and whispered to her, "Control your temper. There are people watching."

Helian Mei took a deep breath and glared fiercely at Helian Weiwei. "Just you wait and see. I'll make sure to deal with you!" Helian Weiwei nonchalantly yawned, completely unfazed by Helian Mei's threat.

Suddenly, something startled and dumbfounded everyone present.

"Where did all these bees come from?" Helian Mei called over the maids, panicking. "Get rid of them!"

The maids were terrified themselves, as the bees surrounded Helian Mei, buzzing their wings and creating a dense swarm.

"They're attracted to the flowers! The ones you just cut!" one of the maids exclaimed.

"I didn't ask for an explanation! Ahh! They're on my face! Damn bees!" Helian Mei screamed, completely engulfed by the buzzing bees.

Amidst the chaos in the Protector Mansion's imperial garden, with everyone running helter-skelter, Helian Weiwei remained calm. The area around her was strangely quiet, devoid of any bees.

"Yuan Xiaoxiao, take your time playing. if it's too fast, it's no fun," Helian Weiwei said, her smile now exuding a sinister charm.
