If she was really feeling that awful, why waste ten-plus minutes heading home?
Wouldn't it be easier to just let her drink my blood right in the car?
Qin Xue wasn’t afraid of Xiaoyun biting her anymore. On the contrary, just imagining the scene made her feel both expectant and excited.
Xiaoyun would curl up in my arms like a baby and suck her blood.
At that time, I could even stroke Xiaoyun’s head…
But, the car was still too exposed—too easy for someone to see. For Xiaoyun’s safety, it was better to…
“Xuanyuan, go back and fetch some blood. Once you’ve got it, come meet us here. I’ll take Xiaoyun home first.” Qin Xue gave the instructions, then cupped Su Yun’s butt and lifted her off the car.
“Miss, you’re seriously going to… No, wait—she’ll bite you,” Qin Xuanyuan objected, her tone full of protest. She knew how terrifying this little girl got when she was hungry.
If her lady just carried the girl home like this, once they were alone inside, that girl would definitely bite her.
“Geez, hurry and get the blood already. I’m taking Xiaoyun home.” Ignoring the objection, Qin Xue just hurriedly waved Qin Xuanyuan off.
“Xiaoyun, which building is yours?” Carrying Su Yun, she headed toward the bridge just across from the school gate. On the way, many other students who were also returning spotted them.
Nearly all the passersby’s gazes landed on them, and some were already whispering to their friends.
Seeing this, Qin Xue could only quicken her pace. She didn’t want people to see how adorable Su Yun looked when she was weak.
She also didn’t want Su Yun to go biting someone else.
“Xiaoyun, it’s this one, right? Where’s the key?”
“...Here.” Su Yun, dazed, reached into her pocket and fished around a bit before handing Qin Xue a yellow card.
“Which room?”
“1101.”
“Alright.”
After getting her answer, Qin Xue stopped asking and simply carried her into the elevator.
When they got to the 11th floor, she didn’t try to wake Su Yun up. Instead, she reached straight into her pocket again and quickly pulled out a black key labeled 1101.
Click. A couple twists, and the thick wooden door opened.
“Xiaoyun, we’re home~ You’ll have something to eat soon~”
“...” Su Yun didn’t respond at all. She seemed to have fallen asleep.
Qin Xue felt a pang of pity and hurriedly used her foot to close the door behind her once they were inside.
“Huh? Xiaoyun looked like she wasn’t feeling well... Who’s that person?” A little head peeked out from the slightly ajar door of room 1102 across the hall.
Xia Rou stepped out with a puzzled look, then pressed her ear against the door of 1101.
She was afraid her friend might’ve gotten caught up with someone shady.
That big sister—was she a bad person?
……
Inside the room, the first thing Qin Xue did was lay Su Yun down on the bed, then draw the curtains.
Now she could let Su Yun drink her blood—and no one would find out.
She took a quick glance around and noticed that Su Yun’s room had almost nothing in it: just a bed, a table, and a chair. No plushies, no throw pillows—none of the things other girls had.
“Xiaoyun’s so tidy…” Qin Xue actually felt pleased after taking it all in and sat down at the edge of the bed.
“Wake up, there’s food now.” She gently poked Su Yun’s forehead.
“Mm... food…” Su Yun finally opened her eyes, only to see Qin Xue in front of her.
Wait, how was she already lying in bed? So familiar... This is my house?
Su Yun stared in confusion, slowly sitting up and realizing the "food" she needed wasn’t here.
She looked toward Qin Xue with a hint of grievance.
Is Sister Xue mad at me? Is she not willing to give me blood anymore...? If so, I might really die.
But why? They had so much fun today. Was it because of how I acted at the milk tea shop...? I’m sorry. Next time, I behave.
Su Yun still felt dizzy, but she could hold out a bit longer. She pulled out her phone and started ordering some duck blood to tide herself over.
“You’re awake?” Qin Xue had already taken off her jacket, revealing only a thin white blouse on top.
“...” Su Yun had her back turned, tapping at her phone.
Qin Xue had no idea what she was doing and just kept taking off more clothes.
Since the blouse had long sleeves, she removed it too. Now, only a light pink undergarment remained, her snow-white shoulders fully exposed.
“Whew... saved…” Su Yun sighed after finishing the duck blood order and let her phone fall from her hand. Just as she leaned back onto the bed—
—The back of her head landed on something soft.
But it was different this time. Her ears felt warm... hot, even. It definitely wasn’t just clothing.
“?” Su Yun froze. Her face brushed against the softness and then she turned around—
Pink…
Huh?
She stared at Qin Xue, who now wore nothing but a tiny two-strap camisole. Her eyes went wide.
She immediately jumped away from the soft embrace in a panic.
“Sister Xue, what are you doing…” Su Yun, suddenly much more clear-headed, politely shut her eyes and didn’t dare glance again at the sultry scene in front of her.
“Weren’t you hungry? Come, drink some blood.”
“Drink what blood? Didn’t you say there isn’t any?” Su Yun looked confused.
“Come drink mine. What, are you too good for my blood?”
