Shi Sheng hadn't expected Fei Qi to show up so quickly.
Ai Wei and a few other princes followed behind him. They didn't look friendly at all.
Ai Wei's gaze towards Shi Sheng was now filled with hatred.
As a stepmother, Shi Sheng didn't care at all.
Shi Sheng blocked the door, showing no intention of letting them in.
"Your Majesty, how could you forget the etiquette of hospitality?" Ke Er spoke up from behind.
Shi Sheng remained unmoved. "There's no need to entertain uninvited guests."
They clearly knew she didn't welcome them, yet they still came knocking on her door. Weren't they just courting death?
Ke Er didn't say anything else. He just stood there quietly. Although he was Mi Nai's adoptive father, she was still his queen.
Fei Qi's expression was somewhat unsightly, but he didn't flare up. He still had to bow. "Your Majesty, I've come today to discuss something with you."
"If you have something to say, say it."
Fei Qi, "…" 'Just what does Xi Yin see in this woman?
Not only is she rude, she's also ridiculously arrogant. '
Fei Qi took a deep breath and told himself not to get angry. Only then did he say, "It's like this. Ai Wei came because of the prophecy. Regardless of whether it's true or not, it was left behind by our ancestors. Us old fellows have discussed and decided to give Ai Wei the status of Holy Maiden. This way, even if the prophecy is true, there won't be any conflicts. What do you think, Your Majesty? "
'Holy Maiden …'
'What are these old farts up to now?'
The Holy Maiden of the vampires was almost equal in status to the vampire king.
However, every Holy Maiden had made outstanding contributions to the vampires. That was why they were bestowed the title.
"Alright."
Just as Fei Qi was about to convince her, Shi Sheng lightly spat out two words.
These two words stunned Fei Qi. 'He agreed so easily?'
"If you're done, you can scram."
Shi Sheng's impolite attitude put Fei Qi in a difficult spot.
But when he thought about how he'd achieved his goal, he decided not to argue with Shi Sheng and left with his men.
After they left, Ke Er stepped forward with a gloomy expression. "Your Majesty, why did you agree?"
"If they want it, then just give it to them." Shi Sheng didn't care at all. Instead, he asked, "Does Godfather care about the throne?"
"Godfather has long grown tired of fighting for power." There was a hint of nostalgia on Kerr's face. "The Blood Breeds weren't like this in the past … Since that's the case, I don't want to care about them anymore."
"Then foster father and Rui Yi should leave this place and take a look at the human world."
Ke Er frowned slightly. Looking at Shi Sheng's smiling face, he didn't ask anything.
She was no longer the little girl who had lost her parents and hugged him and cried bitterly.
She had grown up …
"Alright."
He had spent his entire life in the vampire race and hadn't had the chance to see the outside world.
When Rui Yi heard that he could go outside, he immediately tossed all thoughts of his beloved little princess to the back of his mind and eagerly left with Ke Er.
…
The vampires realized that their new queen didn't care much about their affairs. They couldn't even find her if they needed help.
Even if they found her, she would be impatient and tell them to find someone else.
He did not take back the power of the princes, nor did he issue any new policies. It was almost the same as when there was no king.
That's not right either. The new king conferred a saintess.
Because of what had happened before, they had accepted this Saintess very well.
Shi Sheng didn't care, so Ai Wei gradually became the one in charge.
Shi Sheng was like a vampire king in name only.
But the person in question didn't care at all. She ate, drank, and played with Xi Yin every day.
"Xi Yin, I thought of something." Shi Sheng pushed open the bathroom door. Amid the splashing water, a man's muscular body was faintly discernible.
Xi Yin was a little embarrassed. He grabbed a towel and quickly covered his body.
"Where haven't I seen it before? What's the point of covering it up?" Shi Sheng despised Xi Yin's behavior.
Xi Yin paused. In the end, he didn't wrap the towel around himself. Instead, he turned off the water, his ears red. "What is it?"
Shi Sheng leaned against the bathroom door. "How did you get that injury on your back when I brought you home?"
Xi Yin paused in his wiping, his eyes darkening.
Shi Sheng took the towel from his hand and wiped the water off his body. "You can't tell me? Then forget it. I was just asking casually. "
"No." Xi Yin followed Shi Sheng's lead and put on his clothes. "I just don't know how to say it."
Shi Sheng pushed him out and made him sit on the bed. He took out a hairdryer and helped him dry his wet hair.
The hairdryer was a little noisy, so neither of them spoke.
Only after the hairdryer and the noise was turned off did Shi Sheng ask, "Have you thought of how to say it?"
Xi Yin glanced at Shi Sheng, then suddenly leaned forward and nibbled on her lips. His low voice traveled into Shi Sheng's ears.
"You remember Sikong Sa from Rose Academy, right?"
"Hm?" Because the plot had been edited out, she only knew that this guy wasn't a good person. In the end, he was killed by the male and female leads. As for the details, she didn't know.
But what did this guy have to do with Xi Yin?
"He's also a vampire, and he's always wanted to resurrect someone."
"Resurrect?" Are you kidding me? In the cultivation world, resurrecting someone required a huge price.
Xi Yin nodded. "He seems to want to get something from me, but I don't know what it is."
When he met Shi Sheng, he had just woken up and his body was still weak. Who knew that Sikong Sa would come looking for him?
"Heh … Looks like that woman was also sent by Sikong Sa." Impersonating me and getting close to Ke Er …
Looking for something …
Shi Sheng's rarely used brain was turning. Just as she reached a critical juncture, she suddenly felt a chill on her body.
At some point, Xi Yin had pressed her down on the bed and stripped her of her clothes.
Shi Sheng: "…"
Wasn't he so shy just now? Why was he so proactive now?
His mouth said no, but his body was very honest!
… …
Perhaps Shi Sheng had tossed and turned too much, for Xi Yin fell into a deep sleep. Shi Sheng put on a jacket and stood in front of the window.
A cool breeze brushed past her cheeks, and the rich, somewhat stuffy fragrance of flowers swirled around the tip of her nose.
She let her thoughts wander and pondered casually.
Sikong Sa, Ai Wei …
What did he want to do by getting close to Ai Wei?
Resurrection, looking for something …
"Nainai, you have to protect this painting well. You can't let anyone else get it. It's your life, understand?"
A memory suddenly surfaced in Shi Sheng's mind, jolting her back to reality.
The original owner of this body didn't have this memory.
Someone had erased this part of her memory.
The painting …
That painting hanging on her wall?
Mi Nainai's memories had never revealed how she had obtained that painting. What if … her parents had given it to her and then erased her memories?
Xi Yin said that the painting wasn't complete.
That painting was very important … even more important than Mi Nainai's life. What kind of secret was hidden in it? Was it resurrection?
Shi Sheng rushed to Xi Yin's bedside. She was about to wake him up when she saw his peaceful sleeping face with a faint blush. Shi Sheng paused.
There's no hurry. Let's talk about it tomorrow.
Shi Sheng climbed into bed and snuggled into Xi Yin's arms. Xi Yin unconsciously pulled her into his embrace, and the two of them fell asleep in an intimate position.
