Stunned, watching Leticia take a few drops of blood from Mo Zili, Xiao Luo poked Ailian beside her, “Hit me, I feel like I might be dreaming right now.”
The development was too fast. After a heroic rescue, how could she hand over her blood?
Ailian didn’t think that much. Hearing Xiao Luo’s words, she unceremoniously raised her hand and gave Xiao Luo a hard smack on the back.
“Cough, cough, you’re really not polite.” Xiao Luo stumbled from the blow, almost gasping for air and dying on the spot.
In response, Ailian immediately claimed that she was just following Xiao Luo’s words and bore no responsibility.
Really, believe her, she was definitely not taking revenge.
“They, trust her that much?” Teresa murmured.
The reactions of the three girls made Bai Ya confused. It was just taking a little blood, why were their reactions as if Mo Zili had directly accepted Qianqian jie’s confession?
“Um, Sister Teresa, why are you and Sister Xiao Luo so surprised?”
Teresa blinked her eyes. She hadn’t expected Bai Ya to ask such a question: “Didn’t your sister tell you?”
In Teresa’s eyes, Leticia and Bai Ya’s relationship should be that of sisters, or sisters at heart.
For nobles like them, they should have known such things when they first started school.
However, although a little confused, Teresa still simply explained the importance of blood to demons.
Giving one’s blood to another person was basically equivalent to handing over one’s life to another person. This was a sign of complete trust.
Even couples who claimed to be deeply in love would hesitate in such matters, but Mo Zili so easily gave her blood to Leticia.
This made it difficult not to overthink.
Anyway, Bai Ya did overthink.
“Qianqian jie, what are you going to do with this blood?” Seeing Leticia show off her ice magic and preserve the collected blood in a crystal-clear ice shard, Bai Ya immediately asked.
Could it be that she was going to use it as a token of love? No way?
“This is a matter between adults, children shouldn’t ask so many questions.” Leticia smiled pretentiously, refusing to speak no matter how Bai Ya acted cute. “Alright, alright, we still have a lot of things to do.”
A lot of things meant wandering around the academy for a whole day, half of which was spent in the dance club watching those long-legged ladies dance.
On the way home, Leticia even praised those well-proportioned and beautiful girls, making Bai Ya feel that Qianqian jie was actually such a lecherous person.
This Qianqian jie seemed like those annoying greasy uncles on TV, but she was a little better than them.
After all, a lecherous beautiful girl could also be considered a characteristic, right?
“Alas, after a whole day, the biggest gain is this?” While waiting for Xue Er to prepare dinner, Leticia took out the blood collected in the morning and placed it on the table to examine it carefully.
The ice made by magic would not melt at room temperature. Bai Ya couldn’t help but be curious and wanted to reach out to touch the transparent cube that looked like a work of art.
“So cold.” After lightly touching it, Bai Ya quickly withdrew her hand. “So Qianqian jie, what do you want this thing for?”
After calming down, she thought that Qianqian jie was probably in a stage of bluffing. How could she fall in love with another girl after meeting her only a few times?
Her sister was an exception, and Mo Zili wasn’t as beautiful as her sister.
Therefore, Qianqian jie must be joking with her, but she definitely took that girl’s blood not for no reason.
“To help her find her relatives.” Leticia said with a smile. “After finding them, I will send her to reunite with her parents.”
For some reason, as soon as she heard this, Bai Ya couldn’t help but shudder. She felt that Qianqian jie’s tone of voice was too sinister.
It was as if Qianqian jie had just said: “Send her to the underworld to reunite with her parents.”
It must be an illusion, how could such a gentle and cute Qianqian jie be such a person?
“Speaking of which, Xiao Ya, have you guessed my name yet? Your holiday is almost over.” Leticia brought up another matter.
The reward for guessing her name was that the great Demon King could fulfill a wish, whether it was money or anything else. As long as Leticia could do it, she would fulfill that wish for Xiao Ya.
It’s just that Xiao Ya’s guessing progress had completely stalled. She had asked Xiao Luo for an opportunity, but Xiao Luo’s reaction made Bai Ya quite confused.
“A great noble who is hated by many nobles? Her sister is named Kira?!” Xiao Luo’s expression was as if she had seen a ghost at that time. “I don’t know her, I know nothing.”
But judging by her reaction, she definitely knew, but because of fear or some other emotion, she dared not speak out the name.
This made Bai Ya’s curiosity grow even more. Just how powerful was Qianqian jie to make a young lady like Xiao Luo show such an expression?
A few days ago, when Leticia took her to the library, she also flipped through the books there, but unfortunately, the writing used by demons was very different from that of humans. She couldn’t understand any of the books there.
Xiao Ya, who had wanted to take this opportunity to learn about how many great nobles there were among demons, returned in complete defeat. She couldn’t even read, and even if Leticia wrote her name on paper, she wouldn’t be able to recognize it.
“I can’t guess, no one tells me.” Xiao Ya said, pouting.
“Then Xiao Ya, you can change your thinking. You can go and ask who are the people that nobles dare not even mention.” Leticia smiled and stroked Bai Ya’s head, messing up the little girl’s hair like a bird’s nest.
What she said made sense. Bai Ya’s eyes lit up.
“Moreover, Xiao Ya, you asked Xiao Luo. She’s a noble, and although she knows a lot, there are also many things she dares not to say. In this case, you should change your target and ask those who exchanged intelligence for action.”
“Sister Ailian!” Bai Ya blurted out a name.
Then Leticia gently tapped Bai Ya. “It’s not right to call others stupid.”
It was Qianqian jie who guided me to think in this direction, Xiao Ya felt that the tap she received was completely unreasonable.
Although Qianqian jie didn’t name names, everyone knew who she was talking about.
She just said that person’s name, was that wrong?
…
Clang!
The cold short sword pierced into the wall.
The white-haired girl in the black robe stared coldly at the black-haired girl in front of her, who was trembling and almost unable to stand, her eyes revealing a very complex expression.
“Why are you here again?” Mo Zili felt like crying. She didn’t know what she had done to provoke this guy. This guy had warned her a few days ago, and now she was here again. What was going on?
“You can understand it as me being jealous.” The white-haired girl exhaled lightly. “Phew, but it seems like she’s probably provoking me.”
Perhaps her emotional fluctuations were too large at some point, causing her disguise to have some flaws, and that sensitive girl noticed something was wrong.
And her purpose today was probably to force herself out of the shadows and then mock her properly.
Bai Ling had completely figured out Leticia’s thoughts. That girl was too transparent, without any superfluous thoughts.
This kind of pure malice, she didn’t know whether to call her pure or wicked.
“Are you talking about Miss Qianqian?” Mo Zili thought about it and realized that this guy seemed to appear every time after she had met those two girls.
Could it be that this guy was actually the bodyguard of those two girls?
But she also said she was jealous. Could it be the scenario of a servant falling in love with their young lady?
“Yes, it’s her. What’s your relationship with her?” Bai Ling’s face was very calm. She didn’t pull out the short sword inserted in the wall, but directly turned and sat on the chair behind her.
Mo Zili, who had regained her freedom, twitched her eyes. She had no relationship with that Miss Qianqian.
“She said she’s willing to help me find my parents.”
“Free of charge? Without asking you to pay any price?” Bai Ling asked again.
In her impression, Leticia was never someone who liked to do work for free. If you wanted her help, it was absolutely impossible without any benefits.
Of course, only a little benefit was needed.
Most of the time, her appetite was surprisingly small.
“No, she said she also wants to know which two talented individuals gave birth to me.” Mo Zili cautiously moved to another chair, lest her trembling legs due to fear make her look awkward in front of this white-haired girl.
This answer made Bai Ling’s eyes narrow slightly. It sounded normal, but it didn’t quite fit Leticia’s personality.
Actively offering help out of curiosity might be the case for others, but for Leticia, it seemed rather puzzling.
“She must have other intentions.” Bai Ling said softly.
Whether Leticia had other intentions was not important to Mo Zili. What was important was when this uninvited guest would leave her room.
“Um, isn’t it illegal in the demon world to sneak into a strange girl’s bedroom in the middle of the night?”
Bai Ling looked up at Mo Zili. “But I am human, and I don’t have to abide by the laws of demons.”
Ah, human?
Human?!
“You’re human?!” Mo Zili’s tone suddenly rose, causing Bai Ling to frown.
Is there anything to be surprised about? Bai Ling glanced at Mo Zili confusedly. Oh, right, this is the demon world, and humans should be like floods and ferocious beasts here, right?
Alas, she was a bit careless, and shouldn’t have exposed her identity so quickly.
However, Mo Zili’s reaction caught Bai Ling off guard. She grabbed Bai Ling’s hand as if she had met a relative and excitedly started asking questions.
“Where are you from? How old are you? Are you here to cause trouble in the Demon Realm?”
The series of questions left Bai Ling a little bewildered. She felt that her guess might have been a little off.
This demon girl, not only is she not afraid of humans, but she also has a strange liking for humans?
How strange. Could it be that in the demon world, humans are actually very popular?
“Actually, I grew up in the human world. I only returned to the Demon Realm a while ago. For some reason, my parents left me in the human world. I’m here to find them this time.” Mo Zili noticed Bai Ling’s confusion and quickly explained.
Ah, a demon abandoned in the human world?
Raised by a human woman, and no one noticed anything unusual during her growth. If the person who raised her didn’t say anything, perhaps she would never doubt the correctness of her human identity in her entire life.
Demons and humans are like siblings. They are too alike.
If magic and superpowers are excluded, if a demon and a human stand together, almost no one can distinguish which one is human and which one is demon.
“I just came with my sister.” Bai Ling could feel that the black-haired girl in front of her was not lying. And facing such a demon girl with such a strong sense of identification with humans, she naturally revealed her purpose: “By the way, to see her.”
“Your sister?”
“The black-haired girl who has always been by Qianqian’s side. She’s my sister, my biological sister.”
“Huh? I thought she was a demon.” Mo Zili said in surprise. “So, humans and demons can also make friends with each other?”
She thought that humans and demons were really irreconcilable as described in human books, but now it seemed that there were some exceptions.
The relationship between Miss Qianqian and Miss Xiao Ya was obviously very good, and this ghost-like white-haired lady also had some relationship with Miss Qianqian that went beyond friendship.
Judging from what she just said, it seemed that she liked Miss Qianqian?
A love between a human and a demon? It sounded so romantic.
“It’s a bit difficult to explain between her and me.” Bai Ling also showed a troubled expression. “I like her very much, but I have hurt her before, so she has never been willing to accept me.”
“Moreover, I am human, and she is the young lady of the demon clan. She cannot abandon her responsibilities to be with me, and I cannot abandon my responsibilities to follow her.”
“But, these are things to consider in the future!” Mo Zili said loudly. She didn’t think as deeply as Bai Ling and Leticia. “Since you like her, don’t be timid!”
Uh, Bai Ling was impulsive before, but she received a heavy slap. Leticia was much stronger than she appeared.
Trying to conquer her with the same method as conquering other girls would be like a fool’s dream.
“She, she’s different.”
“How do you know if it’s different or not if you don’t try? Listen to me. Although I’ve never been in love, I’ve seen many people being in love.”
