Chapter 764
This man’s ability to think on his feet is extraordinary; he came up with such a lie!
Immediately, Yen’an said, “Ah! Why did you not say this sooner? If you had, my dear Big White could’ve told you earlier! Big White, did you hear that? Mr. Ye is the heir chosen by the elder vampires. You should contact him immediately!”
No way would Bai Xiao believe this. After freeing his ear from Yen’an’s grasp, he glanced at Ye Junqing, “As the heir to the old vampire king, you still need others to put you in touch with him. Mr. Ye, your lie is poorly crafted.”
Leng Chenmo, hearing this, could only think: self-inflicted misery, this is a living hell!
Ye Junqing fell silent, not saying a word for a long time.
Some things, when spoken aloud, are not only hard to convince others, but even you yourself can hardly believe them.
At this moment, Leng Chenmo spoke up, “Mr. Bai, we mean no harm. Since the heir chosen by the old vampire king refuses to marry your kingdom’s queen, and the elder vampires are in the process of selecting a second heir, we suggest letting Ye Junqing vie for the position of the second heir, because he too is a part of the vampire clan.”
After finishing speaking, Leng Chenmo glanced at Ye Junqing. This was all he could do to help him.
Bai Xiao remained cautious and skeptical.
Xia Ye Zhao chimed in, “I can testify to that. Ten years ago, he developed an uncontrollable urge to suck blood. Mr. Bai, we bear no ill will; we simply want to resolve this matter in the best way possible. You’re also a man. Wouldn’t you fight if someone tried to take Miss Yen’an away from you?”
Bai Xiao lowered his head, his gaze fixed on Yen’an’s seductive yet fierce figure, “Whoever tries to take Yen’an away from me, I will kill them without hesitation!”
The usually violent Yen’an quieted down, casting a deep, affectionate gaze at Bai Xiao. However, her gentleness lasted only three seconds before she once again pounced on Bai Xiao, tweaking his ear, “So, can you please put in some effort? Are you really about to push Xiao Jiu into the fire pit? If that’s the case, why did you rescue Xiao Jiu from the beach all those years ago? You should’ve just let her dead body wash up on the beach!”
The phrase ‘dead body washing up on the beach’ caused both Ye Junqing and Xia Ye Zhao to flinch!
Ye Junqing felt a sharp pain in his heart, his voice dropping significantly, “What are you talking about? What do you mean ‘dead body washing up on the beach’?”
Yen’an spoke, “Didn’t Xiao Jiu tell you? Her own parents threw her into the sea. She struggled in the storm, floating for days before she washed up on this island. Big White happened to be walking on the beach that day and saw Xiao Jiu, barely alive and unconscious. It was Big White who saved Xiao Jiu. She was on the verge of death, but luckily I am skilled in medicine and Big White was willing to use all the valuable medicinal supplies from his home. That’s how we managed to save her from death’s grip!”
After finishing, Yen’an added, “Remember! It’s the gratitude for saving a life! You’ll have to repay us in the future! A mansion is far from enough! Do you know about the contract I signed with you, the 60-40 split, do you know how much I lost? I’m broke!”
Yen’an was talking nonsense. She was a seductive girl whose eyes lit up at the sight of money!
Ye Junqing, thinking about that scenario, couldn’t help but feel scared, sympathize and angry. His tall figure suddenly bent into a 90-degree bow, giving Yen’an and Bai Xiao a grand salute. His voice was solemn, “Thank you!”
