Chapter 128
The Vampire Clan forbids the unauthorized harboring of humans. There are two reasons for this: first, to prevent vampires from succumbing to temptation and reverting to the evil habit of drinking blood; second, to avoid exposing the of the Vampire Clan's domain by bringing humans in.
However, when Jiang Yan was preparing human supplies in the castle, she had already informed the elders about keeping a human. The elders didn't object; in fact, concerned that humans might be too weak to adapt to the environment here, they offered to help her care for the human. Recently, though, they've been preoccupied with something and haven't been seen in the castle for a long time. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Zheng Xiaojie's arrival in the Vampire Clan's domain was due to credits for her major studies, which ultimately had nothing to do with Jiang Yan. As for the original owner being confined by the lord for violating vampire regulations, Jiang Yan felt that was purely forced plot development.

Although, for some unknown reason, the previously pure and emotionally detached Angus suddenly had an awakening and harbored deep resentment because she gave Zheng Xiaojie cake.
However, Jiang Yan felt that this was someone's way of indicating that they were ready for a romantic relationship.
Zheng Xiaojie, sitting at the dining table, was simultaneously ignored by both of them.
Angus hadn't touched his original food, but the blood-made pancakes and monster cookies were devoured completely. Jiang Yan belatedly realized that Angus might have a special taste, preferring vampire food.
...
The task of tormenting Zheng Xiaojie had to continue.
Jiang Yan leaned back in her chair, pondering for a long while before finally deciding to make Zheng Xiaojie sunbathe on a bright, sunny day.
Upon hearing this, the surrounding Blood Servants were shocked. Angus and Zheng Xiaojie, however, had complex expressions.
Sunbathing was indeed torturous for vampires, but in this gloomy castle that never saw daylight, allowing a human to sunbathe could be seen as special care.
Angus maintained his elegant posture, but in a spot Jiang Yan didn't notice, his hand holding the fork tightened slightly.
However, Jiang Yan's earlier reassurance had taken root. Despite his jealousy, Angus knew he was the most important one.
He had walked this world for too long, naturally aloof and uninterested in romance, acting on whims. Having spent a long time among the Vampire Clan, he was well aware of vampires' fickle nature.
If she really wanted Zheng Xiaojie, just hypothetically, he... could accept it.
The little one was young, unsettled, and loved to play. Being so much older than her, he should be understanding. Angus imagined himself being magnanimous.
However, as Jiang Yan stood up, the supposedly open-minded Angus spoke: "My lady, Zheng Xiaojie has just arrived in the Vampire Clan. You have reasons for favoring and caring for her, it's me who..."
Seeing that he was about to use the same old trick, Jiang Yan decided to do something useful.
As Zheng Xiaojie went to sunbathe, Jiang Yan waved for the Blood Servants to leave. Amidst Angus's serious small talk, she walked up to him and, playing along, seductively said, "Come now, you've called me 'my lady,' so how about letting your lady give you a kiss?"
Delicate, beautiful eyebrows, crimson lips... Angus came to his senses and suddenly felt a surge of heat. He calmly averted his gaze but said, "As you wish, my lady."
The corners of Jiang Yan's lips curled up again, smugly like a little fox who had successfully played a trick. She reached out to hook his chin, then slowly lowered her head.
Soft, beautiful lips loomed larger and larger in Angus's pupils until finally, their lips met.
