Quick Transmigration: Knowing I'm a Bad Woman, Yet Still Liking Me?
Chapter 598 The Vampire Miss
"Don't go." Vlad's gaze suddenly turned piercing as he saw Bai Yuan and You Yu about to leave, and he wanted to step forward to stop them.
You Yu's steps did not stop, and only Bai Yuan's gentle laughter, tinged with weariness, could be heard in the wind. "Just a friendly reminder, hunter, you have already crossed the line."
Vlad stopped abruptly, not because of Bai Yuan's reminder.
Instead, from the dark forest before him, pairs of scarlet eyes lit up one after another, an oppressive feeling washing over him, all staring at him menacingly.
Even though Vlad was somewhat unwilling, he didn't dare to make any unnecessary moves.
Even if he were outnumbered, he was confident he could escape unscathed if it were any other vampire.
But the pair of unusually bright red eyes high above triggered a frantic warning from his senses.
With the absolute suppression of the superior, there was no hint of murder, but the deterrent effect was overwhelming.
It gave him not only apprehension but also a sense of fear.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Vlad's back tensed, and he finally began to slowly back away.
In the deathly darkness, only the sound of him crushing dead leaves remained once more.
But the most captivating pair of eyes maintained the same distance from him as before, and even began to approach step by step.
That belongs to Alec.
Vlad retreated to the edge of the forest, completely leaving the territory of the vampire clan.
A tall, slender figure slowly emerged from the darkness. The blond-haired Alec stood between light and shadow, looking down at Vlad, and said in a deep voice, "Just this once."
The next moment, he disappeared from the spot.
Vlad breathed a sigh of relief, glanced one last time into the forest, and quickly turned and left.
Rumor has it that he has a cold temper but is ruthless and unpredictable.
In the words of modern netizens, it's like unleashing a powerful attack without any warning.
Bai Yuan was sitting on You Yu's shoulders when she felt a tightness around her waist. She realized she was already in Alec's arms. "Why didn't you call for help? Why did you run out on your own?"
"There's no danger, I just think it's fun." Bai Yuan didn't struggle and rested her head on Alec's shoulder.
"Heh~" Alec chuckled lightly, "In your terms, this tactic is called 'using one tiger to devour another,' right?"
Bai Yuan wrapped her arms around the man's waist. "Yes, but the chances of Vlad, that tiger, swallowing that wolf cub whole are slim."
"Since no bait has been used in the fishing, Vlad naturally won't go all out; he might even seek cooperation with those wolves."
Alec said this not out of concern, but because he was afraid that Bai Yuan would be disappointed if her plan failed.
With her own safety net, she has nothing to fear.
Bai Yuan laughed. "He won't."
Why do you say that?
"Because he's more worried about my servant." Bai Yuan didn't explain further.
They attribute their actions to a so-called sense of justice, which is why Vlad in the book values the seemingly kind Wen Qiao.
Back at the castle, Bai Yuan went straight to sleep in Alec's room.
I woke up when it was light, and Wen Qiao was already waiting at the door.
After yesterday afternoon's emergency training and Alec's warning, she clearly knew what she had to do. "Miss Bai Yuan, the bath water is ready."
"Mm." Bai Yuan lazily got out of bed.
Vampires have almost no body temperature, so taking baths and sunbathing are things Bai Yuan likes because they allow her to briefly feel a bit of warmth.
Wen Qiao carefully lit the incense for her, then stepped aside to wait, her lips tightly pressed together.
Bai Yuan, with her eyes closed, slowly curled up her lips in the bathtub. Just as Wen Qiao was lost in thought, she suddenly spoke, "You're not convinced."
"Huh?" This sentence caught Wen Qiao off guard for a moment, and then she waved her hands repeatedly, "Miss Bai Yuan, you misunderstood, I didn't."
Bai Yuan ignored her excuses and continued, "Why? I guess it's because my carefree and reckless attitude offended your life. Someone who never really tried suddenly asked themselves three words, 'Why?' Why is she doing so well, while you are now... a prisoner."
She said that because the only person in the Wen family who had worked hard was Wen Ze.
The Wen family was very poor, belonging to the lower class. Wen's father and Wen Ze worked, Wen's mother took care of the housework, and Wen Qiao was only responsible for going to school.
After Wen's father and mother died, Wen Qiao seemingly sacrificed herself by selling the gemstone, but she only got the gemstone because Wen Ze saved someone.
The brother and sister continued their lives as before, working hard to earn money for the family.
What about buckwheat?
She continued to focus solely on attending school, and didn't even take on any part-time jobs after school. Instead, she would have gone out to play with her classmates; otherwise, she wouldn't have been tricked into entering this forest.
Although Bai Yuan has always played the role of a villainous female supporting character, she acts solely based on her own whims and would not target others for no reason.
But she really didn't like this Wen Qiao.
"I really didn't. I was just thinking about my brother. Since our parents passed away, my brother and I have been relying on each other. I was just worried that he would be anxious if he couldn't find me." Wen Qiao lowered her head, her voice trembling with sobs as she explained.
Bai Yuan continued speaking to herself, "You want to take your place, but you feel you can't do it right now. So you're thinking about how to integrate first."
Startled that her thoughts had been exposed, Wen Qiao immediately knelt on the ground. "Miss Bai Yuan, I really didn't mean it. I was just scared. It's normal for a girl to be scared when she suddenly finds herself in this situation."
"Let me remind you, political maneuvering is a contest when forces are evenly matched. But in the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks are utterly ineffective." Bai Yuan finished speaking and casually waved her hand. "You probably wouldn't understand any of this anyway. Get out, just looking at you is annoying."
Wen Qiao didn't get up. She carefully crawled out on her knees and closed the door before letting out a huge sigh of relief.
Bai Yuan closed her eyes again, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Baby Ye Qing, look, even someone like this can be the female lead. You guys really aren't picky anymore."
If the other party were more assertive, Bai Yuan could respect her as someone who had a tough nut to crack.
"This obsequious manner is indeed a bit speechless." In the system's view, the female lead can be bad or stupid, but she absolutely cannot be this kind of person who bows and scrapes.
Half an hour later, Bai Yuan frowned as she looked at the skin on her hands before getting out of the bathtub.
Wrapped in a bathrobe, Bai Yuan went outside and, upon seeing Wen Qiao, pondered for a moment before saying, "I'm hungry."
Wen Qiao's body trembled upon hearing this. This meant that she was going to bleed her blood to drink. "Okay, okay."
"No need to go out, stay here," Bai Yuan ordered as she sat down on the sofa.
"Okay." Wen Qiao was just thinking about her next-door neighbor; they had talked a lot last night.
She knew her blood was special, so she thought she would only donate a little and have that person pay for the rest.
She didn't want to lose too much blood, as it would worsen her health.
