21 – Alrеаdу disсussing рrосreatiоn?
Shеng Сhuуаng followed thе sсent forwаrd, stopрing whеrе it wаs mоst intеnse.
Веfоrе her was а door.
On the dооrplаtе wеrе thrеe wоrds: Survеillаnce Rооm.
Thе door to thе surveillаnce roоm was widе oреn.
As if knowing Shеng Chuyang wоuld соmе, it had beеn ореned to wеlcоme her.
Аnger ignited in Shеng Chuyаng’s eyes.
Неr fаcе сold, she walkеd inside.
Тhе man sitting with his baсk to her in frоnt of thе survеillаncе monitors hеard the mоvеmеnt behind him.
“You’re here.”
His voicе wаs lazy, his tone sоunding аs if he had beеn wаiting for a long time.
Sheng Chuyang gritted her teeth in fury: “Bo Chenjing!”
Almost immediately, Bo Chenjing responded: “Hmm.”
With a slight push of his foot against the floor, the chair swiveled around, turning the man who had been facing away from her to face her directly.
He lifted one leg, crossing it over the other, leaned back against the chair, and clasped his hands together on his lap, appearing entirely relaxed and at ease.
“Living in human society, you should change your habit of being active at night and sleeping during the day,” he said with a smile, earnestly offering her advice as if genuinely out of goodwill.
This was no goodwill—it was pure smugness!
She had finally found the corpse, just one step away from dealing with the curse source inside its belly, only to have this man snatch it away at the last moment.
Every time she went out at night, he managed to catch her!
The more Sheng Chuyang thought about it, the angrier she became. She retorted sharply, “You should also change your habit of wandering around in the dead of night. Be careful not to ruin your kidneys from staying up late, or you might not be able to have children!”
Bo Chenjing’s smile visibly vanished from his face.
His expression turned so cold it seemed like icicles could fall from it.
The surveillance room fell into a terrifying silence.
“Sixth Master! The corpse has been loaded onto the truck and transported away!”
Song Wu walked in from outside.
“Miss Sheng?” Seeing Sheng Chuyang, he asked in surprise, “Why is Miss Sheng here too?”
Only then did Song Wu notice the tense atmosphere in the room.
Sixth Master’s expression was frighteningly grim.
Miss Sheng also looked furious.
The two seemed ready to fight at any moment.
Having witnessed how formidable Sheng Chuyang could be, he swallowed hard and silently retreated.
“I’ll go keep watch outside.”
Song Wu quickly fled the scene. Only after leaving the room did he let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had narrowly escaped disaster.
Sheng Chuyang snorted coldly, “I knew it—you deliberately came to steal the corpse from me!”
On the very day she was resurrected, Bo Chenjing had taken her to the Vampire Hunters Association.
When Jiang Fan mentioned the special department earlier, she immediately thought of Bo Chenjing.
And sure enough, when she came looking, it was him.
Bo Chenjing said nothing, expressionlessly standing up and walking toward the door.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you feeling guilty?” Sheng Chuyang blocked his way.
Sheng Chuyang only reached his shoulder in height. Standing in front of him, she had to look up to see his face clearly.
The girl’s small face was pure and snow-white, her lips a vivid red, and her clear, dark eyes were the most striking and beautiful.
Just looking at this pretty face gave off an innocent, disarming aura.
Only those who knew her well understood how deceptive this face was.
She was arrogant, unruly, and difficult to tame.
Bo Chenjing had originally intended to ignore this little ingrate who ate his steak and then insulted him.
But before he realized it, the words had already left his mouth.
“To ensure I can have children in the future, I’m going back to sleep right now.”Bo Chenjing’s voice was not soft.
Therefore, Song Wu, standing at the door, also heard it.
What?
What kind of outrageous words was Sixth Master saying?
Had Sixth Master and Miss Sheng progressed this quickly?
Were they already discussing reproduction?
Sheng Chuyang: “…”
When she had previously said Bo Chenjing was staying up late and damaging his kidneys, she hadn’t felt anything was off.
But now, hearing the words “reproduction” from Bo Chenjing’s mouth felt strange.
She was momentarily speechless: “Oh.”
Seeing her like this, Bo Chenjing inexplicably couldn’t stay angry.
He continued walking out.
After a few steps, he turned back to look at Sheng Chuyang, who was still standing in place. His emotions had already calmed down, and his tone returned to its usual indifference: “Aren’t you coming?”
Sheng Chuyang blinked: “Why are you calling me when you’re going home to sleep?”
She was genuinely puzzled.
Bo Chenjing felt that if he died young in this lifetime, it would definitely be from being angered to death by Sheng Chuyang.
Seeing Bo Chenjing’s expression turn cold again, Sheng Chuyang realized that his earlier comment about going home to sleep was just said in anger.
She took small, quick steps to catch up. Passing by Bo Chenjing, she said softly: “Let’s go.”
…
The car stopped in front of a familiar white building.
Sheng Chuyang had been here before.
The Vampire Hunters Association.
Bo Chenjing, who hadn’t spoken a word to her the entire journey, still ignored her when getting out of the car, walking straight inside.
He seemed to still be angry.
Sheng Chuyang remembered the day she first woke up, when Bo Chenjing had brought her here. He had bought her clothes and instant noodles.
That evening, she had also eaten steak at his house.
Although she didn’t know why he knew how to cook, the steak he pan-fried was truly delicious.
Sheng Chuyang carefully weighed the situation and still felt she should maintain a good relationship with him.
She walked to Bo Chenjing’s side, put her hands behind her back, cleared her throat, and spoke somewhat awkwardly: “Tomorrow… I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Humans emphasized reciprocity.
The most common way to express gratitude was to treat someone to a meal.
Unexpectedly, Bo Chenjing didn’t even look at her before directly refusing: “No.”
Sheng Chuyang: “…”
In her hundred years of life, this was the first time she had ever offered to treat someone to a meal, and she was actually rejected?
“Why?” Sheng Chuyang was greatly puzzled.
Bo Chenjing stopped, his slightly deep voice devoid of any emotion: “Aren’t you just planning to poison me and then drink my blood?”
Sheng Chuyang’s eyes lit up—that wasn’t a bad idea.
Realizing she had actually followed his train of thought and considered poisoning him to drink his blood, Sheng Chuyang’s expression stiffened: “I’m not that despicable!”
Bo Chenjing raised an eyebrow to look at her.
Sheng Chuyang raised her hand: “I swear!”
Bo Chenjing watched her for a moment, as if finally believing her: “Alright.”
Sheng Chuyang had already quickly planned tomorrow’s menu: “Tomorrow, we’ll first have instant noodles, then steak.”
Over the past few days, she had eaten several meals at the Sheng family and attended Old Master Jiang’s birthday banquet.
But she felt that instant noodles and steak were still the most delicious.
If she had to rank them, steak was the most delicious, and instant noodles came second.
After these days of interaction, Bo Chenjing had gained a preliminary understanding of Sheng Chuyang.
He also guessed why Sheng Chuyang wanted to treat him to instant noodles and steak.
This was a little vampire who had just arrived in the human world and hadn’t seen much of it.
She probably thought instant noodles and steak were the most delicious things.Bo Chenjing raised a hand to his lips, curling his fingers loosely into a fist as he suppressed a smile and said, “Let’s have something different to eat tomorrow.”
