Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

Chapter 224: Legend of the Blood Clan (8)

The spacious room, the gilded decorations, the oversized round bed covered with silk, and the fragrance in the air make people feel quite comfortable.

The handsome young man with his forehead in his hand and brows lowered in front of the window had a cold, indifferent look in his eyes.

This person...is Ling Li.

Come to think of it, it has been some time since he was captured and made into a blood slave.

It’s just strange that the monster that feeds on sucking blood never looked for me again except for the first time they met.

It is said that he is under house arrest, but here he is treated like a master, being well-fed and well-served every day.

Although this is good, it is not a long-term solution.

He had to find out the whereabouts of the blood mark as soon as possible.

"Knock knock~" The ancient mahogany door was knocked, interrupting the man's thoughts.

"Master Ling, His Highness invites you to have dinner together in the main hall." The servant's voice came with some respect.

Ling Li was slightly stunned, and replied calmly: "I know."

He was originally a calm person, and what's more, he was caught by a race that he hated and opposed, even if they didn't hurt him, but in his heart... he always felt humiliated.

But this monster... suddenly invited me, what is he planning?

Maybe... he couldn't help but suck blood.

Ling Li stood up, shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

"It's cold tonight, and His Highness has specifically instructed you to wear thicker clothes." After the servant said this, he waited quietly outside the door.

Ling Li, who was inside the house, simply changed into a shirt, put on a coat and went out.

Seeing this maze-like castle again, Ling Li frowned slightly.

He didn't come out very often, but every time he saw the design of the castle, he felt it was exquisite, strange and ingenious.

No wonder, the castle remained intact during the last war between the two tribes.

Not long after, the servant's voice sounded again: "Master Ling, we are here. Please go in. His Highness has been waiting for you for a long time."

Before Ling Li could react, the servant had already disappeared into the corridor.

Ling Li raised his eyes and looked at the exquisite and heavy wooden door in front of him, feeling more cautious.

Just as his fingers were about to touch the door, the door slowly opened by itself.

The light penetrated into Ling Li's eyes, and at the same time, what caught his eye was the beautiful woman in a white tasseled dress sitting in front of the long table.

Shi Qi held up his cheek and saw the person coming, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Because I was busy arranging the ennoblement, I haven't seen you for several days.

The boy's wound had long since healed and his complexion had improved a lot. His thin lips were as pink as cherry blossoms and his handsome face was very pleasing to the eye.

Especially the slightly protruding blood vessels on the neck...particularly attractive.

"Now that you're here, sit down and eat. I'll take you somewhere later." Shi Qi looked away with difficulty, suppressing the desire for blood in his heart, and spoke in a cold and arrogant tone.

"Where?" Ling Li's face was cold, without any gentleness at all.

"You talk too much nonsense. I don't want to answer." Ling Li was cold, and Shi Qi was even colder.

"Don't go."

"I didn't discuss it with you."

"..."

For a moment, two moving icebergs sat at either end of the long table, and it seemed as if the air was about to freeze.

This long table is very long, a full five meters.

But it just happened to fulfill Ling Li's wish, as he had always wanted to stay away from Shi Qi.

Pine nut corn, roast goose and roast chicken, rice wine dumplings, rose in flower dew, braised pig's trotters, braised eggplant, sweet-scented osmanthus fish...

The table was full of everything, whether it was main dishes or desserts, and the aroma was everywhere.

Ling Li tilted his head, looking at the person opposite him whose face was a little blurry, feeling very puzzled.

Don't all vampires suck blood?

How can they eat these human foods?

"What exactly do you want to do by preparing all this?" Ling Li asked calmly.

Shi Qi paused and blinked: "Eat."

"I can't eat so much." Ling Li lowered his eyes, feeling a little cold in his heart.

This monster wanted to make him eat more and fatten him up so that it would be easier for her to suck his blood...

Shi Qi was stunned. He bit his chopsticks and looked up in confusion: "Ah, not all of them are for you. Except for the eggplant and fish soup in front of you, the rest are mine."

The woman's voice was soft and not loud, and it filled the entire hall.

"..."

The corners of Ling Li's mouth twitched slightly, and he said no more. He picked up the chopsticks and tried to fill his stomach quickly.

Thinking of this, Shi Qi felt so wronged that he wanted to cry.

It is really difficult to be a vampire in this world. They cannot eat human food at all.

These were all conjured up by her using blood tablets and magic. Only the one in front of Ling Li was real food.

When asked why she did this, Shi Qi was not quite sure. He only knew that the original owner had been doing this for many years.

She will deliberately learn how humans eat, understand human food, and the human lifestyle.

At first, Shi Qi didn't understand why, but when he saw Ling Li picking up his chopsticks to eat, he seemed to understand.

This proud and noble queen just wants to be closer to the boy she likes.

It's like telling him...

'I can be like you, I hope you won't be afraid of me.'

Ling Li naturally didn't believe that Shi Qi could finish eating such a large meal, but as the clock ticked, Shi Qi had unknowingly moved to the position next to Ling Li.

When he drank the last mouthful of fish soup, he looked up and saw the empty plate opposite him, and his eyelids fluttered.

When Ling Li saw the girl gnawing on the last pig's trotter beside him, he was stunned.

Ling Li: My worldview seems to be distorted.

"Have you finished eating? Wait for me." Shi Qi was holding her hair with one hand and a pig's trotter with the other. She looked a little cute and naive, which was rare.

Ling Li turned sideways and moved his chair inconspicuously, moving a little further away from Shi Qi.

"I don't want to wait. I'm sleepy."

"I didn't discuss this with you."

"..."

Looking at the man's icy black face, Shi Qi didn't care. After all, she knew that he hated her.

Ling Li's face was cold, but he was worried in his heart.

She is such a big eater. If she sucks his blood, he will definitely not survive the night.

He miscalculated. He never could have imagined that the queen of the blood clan was so... powerful.

After Shi Qi finished the task, her desire to suck blood was temporarily relieved. She stood up leisurely, fiddled with her long skirt, and hooked her finger at Ling Li.

"Come with me."

Ling Li frowned slightly, said nothing with a cold face, but still followed.

She seemed to be leading him out of the castle, down a hidden path.

The road was full of flowers, and fireflies were flying with light, surrounding Shi Qi.

The girl's flaxen curly hair makes her look cute and cool, and her white dress is elegant and delicate, making her look like a god favored by the Creator.

"Okay, we're here." Shi Qi looked back, only to find Ling Li standing several meters away, motionless.

"Why don't you come over? Are you resisting?" Shi Qi asked.

"..."

"Why resist? I just brought you to a nice place." Shi Qi explained calmly.

Shi Qi was depressed. Ling Li liked the starry sky, and she just wanted to fulfill the original owner's wish and take him to see the starry sky.

Is he so resistant?

"What you call a nice place is nothing more than a place to satisfy your selfish desires. If you want to suck blood, I can give it to you, but can you go back to the house? This is my last bottom line."

Just when Shi Qi thought Ling Li was going to have a big quarrel with him, the man's stubborn yet somewhat negotiating tone broke the tranquility of the dark night.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Shi Qi looked at the man standing still with his chest crossed a few meters away, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Pfft... Ling Li, you really are... you always surprise me."

"Do you think I brought you here to suck your blood?"

“…”Isn’t it?

He knew that vampires knew little and played tricks.

But even if he was sucked of blood, he couldn't let outsiders see it, not even fireflies, that would be a humiliation...

"Alright, put away that lifeless look of yours. I came here to show you this." Shi Qi calmed himself down and his tone was indifferent again.

With a wave of the hand, the branches all over the sky obediently scattered, revealing the entire sky.

Seeing Shi Qi's actions, Ling Li dodged subconsciously. However, the next second, when he saw the scenery above his head clearly, he still felt like he was dreaming.

It was a gorgeous and brilliant starry sky, with meteors streaking across from time to time, shining like gems, like a fantasy on the edge of a cliff.

The light is flowing, gentle and quiet.

Just as he was fascinated by the scene, the girl's voice came into his ears again.

"I heard that human blood tastes sweeter when bathed in the starry sky. I'll take you to try it." Seeing the boy's half-curved crescent eyes, Shi Qi joked.

Sure enough, the smile on the boy's face froze.

Shi Qi shrugged, stood beside Ling Li, looked at the starry sky, and actually felt... that these long and depressing years were somewhat comfortable.

Although, his eyes revealed his dislike for her...
