"Since you're an investor, why did the old man let you receive him? Is his brain stuck in the door?”After learning the other party's identity, Zero frowned even more unhappily and reprimanded him. Even he could tell that this person was not to be underestimated. It was impossible for the chairman to not notice, but he still let Chihaya bring her people out alone. What was he thinking? Was he not worried about Chihaya's safety at all?
Chihaya understood that Zero was concerned about her, but she still didn't want him to misunderstand Little Yan, so she explained,""Don't blame Little Yan, I was the one who wanted to do this.”Lance, who was hated by Zero, added,"" That's right. I was the one who asked this lady to bring me around."
The other party's cheerful tone was taken as a provocation by Zero, and her already unpleasant expression turned cold. Even Youji felt a chill run down her spine when she stood beside Zero, let alone Lance, who was being stared at by Zero. However, Lance wasn't one of those useless vampires. Having lived for thousands of years, he had seen all kinds of situations. How could he be affected by the cold air of a young boy?
Lance's smile grew brighter as if he did not feel Zero's murderous aura at all. He lowered his head and asked Chihaya in embarrassment,""Speaking of which, because the chairman is very kind and allowed me to eat and stay with you, I will have to disturb you and the chairman from today on. Then, could you please bring me to my room now, Chihaya? I'm a little sleepy.”
Even though he didn't know what the disciplinary committee member was unhappy about, the smart Lance still grasped the main point. It seemed that the more intimate he was with Chihaya, the more enraged she would be. Since he dared to give him a hard time, Lance knew that he wasn't a person who was willing to suffer losses. Of course, he had to provoke him fiercely.
Sure enough, Lance's deliberately undisguised words had ignited the fire in Zero's heart. However, he knew that no matter what he said to Chihaya or Lance, it was useless. Hence, he glared at Lance angrily, turned around, and rushed to the chairman's office. He had to make that old man change his mind. He couldn't feel at ease living so close to him.
"Zero!" Youji didn't understand why Zero suddenly left with a gloomy expression. She shouted but got no response. She stood where she was, neither staying nor chasing. Seeing that Zero was going to look for the chairman, Youji was concerned and wanted to go and take a look so that Zero wouldn't do anything rash.
However, Youji and Zero were also worried about Chihaya being alone with this investor. This man gave her the same pressure as Jiu Lanshu, or even more. If this person wanted to harm Chihaya, she wouldn't be able to help without Chihaya by her side. Although it was already good enough that she didn't cause any trouble with her martial strength.
Seeing that the girl wanted to chase after a boy who didn't like her and even hated her, Lance's smile faded slightly and he said half-jokingly,""Ah, little girl, are you afraid that I will hurt this young lady? Do I look like a bad person?”His calm tone made it impossible to tell whether he was in a good mood or not.
" Uh, no..." Youji didn't expect the other party to suddenly ask such a question. Even if she had such concerns, it was her own wild guess. How could she really say it out loud? That would be too rude. Therefore, Youji, who was not good at lying, hesitated for a moment and did not know what to say to not make people unhappy.
"Enough." Chihaya glanced at the vile Lance coldly and warned him,""Aren't you tired? I'll bring you back to your room to rest. Youji, you go do your own thing too. Don't worry about me.”After saying that, he comforted Youji, who was worried about him, and left with a regretful Lance.
After sending her to the door, Chihaya turned around and was about to leave when Lance, who was leaning against the door frame, stopped her. At this moment, Lance put away his hypocritical smile, and the gentleness in his eyes was replaced by wickedness."I'm looking forward to living together in the future.”Chihaya didn't react and walked away. Behind him, Lance watched as the small figure was swallowed by the darkness. He bowed and bowed to the nobles, whispering,""I hope you have a good dream tonight."
Chihaya did not return to her room. Instead, she went to the chairman's office. Previously, Zero was obviously dissatisfied with Little Yan's arrangement because of Lance's words. As expected, he would definitely question Little Yan. It would be best if he could make Little Yan change his mind. Although she didn't know why Little Yan would let Lance stay by his side, he must have his own reasons or difficulties.
Lance must have a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Even though Chihaya had only met him twice, her intuition told her that he was very shrewd. She did not waste her time wandering around with the others just now. She had tried many times to pry into the other party's memories, but it was the first time she had hit a wall. The energy she had probed out did not get anything. She didn't know if the other party had noticed her little tricks. If he didn't, it would be fine. If he didn't show it, it would prove his shrewdness.
"I absolutely disagree! No matter what your purpose is, you shouldn't have placed her so close to Kaoru! You're betting on Chihaya's safety. Shouldn't you be the one most worried about her?!”Zero slammed the table and loudly reprimanded the silent Dark Lord Hui Yan.
It had been almost half an hour since Zero arrived at the office. No matter how much he objected, he could not shake the chairman at all. It wasn't that he didn't notice that the chairman who made this decision was also worried, but he didn't understand why he insisted on letting Lance and Chihaya live under the same roof even though he was worried.
"Cone Life, there's no need to say anything else. I made this decision after careful consideration.”Black Master Hui Yan had no choice but to give his reason under Zero's repeated questioning."You can see that Lance is not an ordinary person. Before I know his identity, I can't put him in the student dormitory of the day division, nor can I let him live with the vampires of the night division.”
Black Master Hui Yan had actually considered letting this mysterious investor stay in Moon Palace temporarily. However, he was not sure whether the man was a vampire or not, and it happened so suddenly that he didn't have time to discuss with Jiu Lanshu, so he couldn't make the decision to send him to the Moon Palace.
After thinking about it, he could only keep her under his nose, but he was worried about Chihaya's safety. There was one more thing that he didn't tell Zero. Lance's words made Dark Lord Hui Yan change his mind.
"I came to the Black Lord Academy this time because of Miss Chihaya, who is by your side. You've taken care of her since she was young, so you know how special she is. That young lady's physique of not growing up, I'm sure all of you are troubled by this. I might be the only one who knows about this. I'm here to confirm some of my guesses and perhaps solve some of your problems.”
That person's words shocked Black Master Hui Yan, but he couldn't deny the hope that rose in his heart when he heard that the other party had the possibility of restoring Chihaya's body to normal. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he still wanted to take a gamble. If what she said was true, it would solve a knot in his heart. It would also be good for Chihaya.
It was with this thought in mind that Black Master Hui Yan knew that the other party might just be making empty promises. His decision might very well be disadvantageous to Chihaya and put her in danger, but he did not hesitate to take the risk. However, he would also do his best to protect Chihaya. After all, he was the one who acted willfully and placed danger beside him without discussing it with Chihaya.
"Zero, the chairman will definitely not joke about Chihaya's safety. Don't be so agitated. The chairman won't do anything rash.”Yu Ji comforted Zero, who was being aggressive because of her worry, while expressing her dissatisfaction,"Director, you should at least discuss this with Sister Chihaya.”
Chihaya had just arrived at the door when she heard Yuki's words of injustice for her. A trace of warmth flowed through her heart. Then, he pushed the door open and entered. The sound of the door opening alarmed the few people in the office. Chihaya walked in and smiled.""I have no objections to Little Yan's decision. You don't have to worry too much. I've met Lance once. He helped me deal with the target in the last mission. Don't worry, he has no ill intentions."
It was true that Lance had taken care of her mission target, but it wasn't because he wanted to help her. As for whether the other party had any malicious intentions, she did not know for the time being. She was not sure in the future, but even if there was, she would not be afraid. Right now, the most important thing was to make Youji, especially Zero, calm down and not blame Little Yan for what happened to her.
"So there's such a thing. I knew that gentleman wouldn't be an evil person.”The innocent Yuji did not think too much about it and believed what Chihaya said. She was a little embarrassed. After all, she was a little worried that Chihaya would be alone with that person, and someone had seen through her.
Although Zero had some doubts, she could not find a reason for Chihaya to lie. She snorted unwillingly and turned her head away. However, Black Master Hui Yan was a little surprised. After all, Chihaya didn't mention Lance's existence that time. If he didn't come to find him, he would probably still be in the dark.
"Sorry, I didn't mention it before." Chihaya lowered her eyes and apologized. She knew that her words had exposed the secrets she had hidden from Little Yan. Even if Little Yan did not blame her, he would still be a little sad. This was her fault.
Just as Chihaya had expected, Black Master Hui Yan was indeed a little disappointed by Chihaya's previous concealment. After all these years, Chihaya had always been very obedient and would never hide anything from him. This was the first time she had not told him anything. If there was a first time, there would be a second and third time.
"Xiaoxun has grown up. It's normal for her to have her own secrets. There's no need to apologize to me.”Black Master Hui Yan looked at Chihaya who was sincerely apologizing in front of him and sighed in his heart. Unknowingly, she was no longer the ignorant little girl she was when she first met him. Even though her figure had not changed, her heart had matured and she had her own little secrets.
Thinking about how Chihaya might have a boy she liked who would no longer stick to her like before, Black Master Hui Yan felt a little down and a little sad. He attributed it to his love complex and thought that he was a daughter who was unwilling to raise and was taken away by other wolf cubs.
