Love App, Girl, Come And Taste My Blood - Chapter 102
“Excuse me for interrupting, but we have something to say to Wushuang.” Qin Kezhang, the forensic science department chief, was the first to speak. She seemed rather embarrassed, but she had to say something to break the current stalemate.
“Okay, okay, feel free to use the living room. Honey, we’ll…” Ye Wushuang’s mother pointed at the food on the table, wanting to move to another place to continue eating.
It seemed like it was just dinner time, and Qin Kezhang became even more embarrassed.
“Mom, you all continue eating. I’ll take them upstairs.” Feeling the living room wasn’t appropriate, and sensing a barrage of personal questions was imminent, Ye Wushuang thought of her small room.
Although it was a bit cramped to entertain guests, it was better than the current situation.
The few of them readily agreed. The actress remained silent at the back, clearly feeling uncomfortable in this unfamiliar environment.
Closing the door, the space was enclosed. Because there wasn’t enough room, the few of them could only sit on the bed, which looked rather strange.
One was Qin Kezhang, the forensic science department chief, the woman she admired most.
One was a popular actress on TV.
And another was Zhu XX, the police captain, who was strange but exceptionally intelligent.
Although each of them was a beautiful woman, Ye Wushuang was still under a lot of pressure, even though she knew in her heart that she hadn’t done anything wrong.
“Well, I’ll just say it directly. Wushuang, you know this girl, right?” Qin Kezhang was the first to speak. She took a photo out of her jacket pocket.
The photo showed a girl in a school uniform, about thirteen years old. She was looking at the camera, her face full of displeasure. Clearly, she hated the person taking the photo.
And naturally, Ye Wushuang recognized this girl.
“I met her at the Comiket last time.” Ye Wushuang honestly told them when and where she had met the celebrities daughter.
“Comiket? When was that?”
“Let me think… It was before the New Year, on the 9th. I was helping out at the time, and she came up to me.” Ye Wushuang carefully recalled the place and the situation of their encounter, of course, omitting the part where the celebrities daughter tried to kiss her.
“That’s about the same time as the witness’s photo.” As she spoke, Qin Kezhang took out a second photo. The picture showed the celebrities daughter with her, seemingly chatting about something.
“What’s wrong with this little girl?” Ye Wushuang didn’t understand the meaning of their questions. If the celebrities daughter had gone missing again, there was no way she could help.
The few of them exchanged glances. Finally, Qin Kezhang spoke first.
“She ran away from home.”
“Oh, okay.” Hearing this, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Clearly, compared to hearing that the celebrities daughter had been killed somewhere or something, this news of her running away from home made Ye Wushuang feel so relieved.
But then, she thought about why the few of them had come to her at night. If it was just about running away from home, then this group was too big.
Ye Wushuang looked at the few of them with a confused expression. Finally, her gaze settled on Qin Kezhang’s face, seeking an answer. Qin Kezhang sighed and looked at the actress. She said, “Is it okay to tell her?”
This was the actress’s family matter, but because the two of them were high school classmates many years ago, Qin Kezhang was willing to help.
“Go ahead. I don’t want to hide it anymore.” The actress took off her sunglasses, revealing her delicate features. But her face was haggard. Even makeup couldn’t change her complexion.
She was still so dazzling, but her eyes held a deep sadness.
Getting the woman’s confirmation, Qin Kezhang explained the situation.
The actress and the actor were a famous model couple, but in fact, they had been estranged for a long time. Their marriage had become unpleasant. For all these years, their only daughter had been living in this environment.
“She’s become rebellious and her mood swings are unpredictable. She’s made bad friends, and we can’t control her. Especially when she’s in a bad mood, she always run away from home. The last time it happened, it lasted for a long time. We even had to report it to the police, but in the end, my husband stopped us.”
The actress’s expression became even more painful. Her eyes were filled with tears, as if a single word would make her emotions collapse.
“A few days ago, she ran away from home again. But this time was different. She didn’t even bring any money. We tried tracking her phone signal, but it was always on airplane mode. I was very worried. I’ve been looking for her at her friends’ places for days, but…” The actress pursed her lips, trying not to let her tears fall, but as she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks.
Her exhaustion came not only from her daughter but also from her husband. The media outside was hounding her. If she hadn’t been classmates with Qin Kezhang, the actress would have had to wait helplessly.
“But why did you come to me?” Ye Wushuang pretended not to understand, but she had already guessed the reason.
“She’s still using WeChat, and she’s been messaging you the most. We locked onto the signal source, and guess what? It’s you.”
Zhu XX explained the reason for them being there, a slight smile playing on her lips. It was a naive smile, like that of a mischievous child, and it looked surprisingly appropriate on the face of this woman in her thirties.
It was a contradictory beauty, and Ye Wushuang could clearly see through her X-ray vision that she had two skins. This so-called ordinary face wasn’t Zhu XX’s true appearance.
Ye Wushuang didn’t want to investigate who she really was. She had to focus all her energy on the matter at hand.
“That’s right. She has been contacting me, but I’ve never replied to her, let alone asked her where she is.”
“It’s okay. As long as you reply, I can find her location based on the signal source.” Zhu XX shook the backpack on her back, explaining why they were there.
Ye Wushuang was speechless. She had to admire the wonders of modern technology. Now that they had found her, she could only help them with this small favor.
Although she didn’t want to reply to the celebrities daughter messages at all.
“Okay, now start talking to her continuously. The system will start scanning and comparing locations to find her whereabouts.” Zhu XX continued to introduce the use of this high-tech device. Ye Wushuang nodded and sent a random place name to the chat window.
The celebrities daughter replied quickly. Maybe because it was night, she had more time.
[WeChat]celebrities daughter: No, guess again.
Ye Wushuang helplessly revealed a few more place names. Zhu XX beside her was frantically fiddling with the high-tech device. Her fingers were slender, tapping on the keyboard with a rapid click. The words on it were English words that ordinary people couldn’t understand.
The actress beside her was waiting anxiously. Qin Kezhang, however, was calmly walking around the room, her posture relaxed, as if she was confident that Zhu XX could handle everything alone.
Ye Wushuang could only grit her teeth and chat with the celebrities daughter. She was still so talkative and enthusiastic that Ye Wushuang didn’t know how to respond.
“Um, do you need any help?” Ye Wushuang’s anxiety was seen by the actress. She put down her teacup and sat next to Ye Wushuang.
“Maybe… Your daughter is too enthusiastic. I can’t handle it.”
“Enthusiastic? Yueyue rarely cares about people. It seems like she really likes you.”
“She just likes my cosplay character.” Ye Wushuang replied modestly. At this moment, the screen was filled with words. She used computers more often, so she wasn’t very good at using her phone.
Seeing Ye Wushuang struggling, the actress continued, “Then… I’ll help you.”
Ye Wushuang nodded. Then, she remembered that she still had the dating app on her phone. But then she thought, there were so many people here now. Nothing should happen. In the end, she gave the phone to the actress.
As soon as she got the phone, the actress glanced at the content on the phone and quickly started typing. She typed very fast and reacted very quickly. Ye Wushuang could even see the screen reminding her that the celebrities daughter’s affection level was steadily rising.
Clearly, the dating app only recognized the affection level between individuals. Even if someone else used it without being discovered, it could still be considered the player’s personal achievement.
Although the actress and the celebrities daughter didn’t get along, she was still her mother. As the person who knew her daughter best, she easily grasped the core of the conversation.
After chatting for about ten minutes, Zhu XX finally spoke. “Done. She’s in XX County.”
Everyone’s gaze fell on Zhu XX, their eyes filled with surprise.
XX County was a bit far from the city, in the north. It would take five hours to drive there. And now, the celebrities daughter had run so far, and she didn’t even bring any money.
“Could it be that she found a boyfriend?” The actress was terrified. A fourteen-year-old girl running to that kind of place alone, there must be someone with her.
And this person couldn’t be a friend.
No friend would take in a friend during the New Year. There was only one other possibility that the actress didn’t want to believe
Her legs went weak. If Ye Wushuang hadn’t supported her, she would have crashed into the wall. As a mother, her daughter’s precociousness didn’t bring her any joy.
“Maam, it’s not necessarily like that. The place she went to is the same place as my junior’s hometown. Maybe she’s just staying at my junior’s house.” Ye Wushuang comforted her repeatedly. She could feel the actress’s fragrance and the tempting scent of her blood.
This blood was different from Qiu Ruishi’s. It was full of blood’s sediment, like a mellow wine, making one’s heart flutter. Ye Wushuang didn’t feel anything for beauty, but blood had become the center of her life.
Moreover, she had already finished all the blood bags Qiu Ruishi had left for her. Counting the days, it had been three or four days since she had eaten.
A red light flickered in Ye Wushuang’s eyes and quickly disappeared. The actress didn’t see it. She saw herself being hugged by the young high school student. Even though it was a girl, she felt very embarrassed.
But because of Ye Wushuang’s words, she seemed to regain her composure. She apologized, “I’m sorry, I lost my composure.”
Ye Wushuang smiled and didn’t mind. Even so, the actress kept looking at her, as if she wanted to say something else.
“The location has been confirmed. I’ll send it to you. Okay, Hehuan, let’s go home and sleep.” Zhu XX stretched, like a cat that had just woken up. She looked at Qin Kezhang, her eyes sparkling with irresistible enthusiasm.
Qin Kezhang seemed to want to refuse, but she felt like she had already helped enough. She nodded in agreement. Zhu XX couldn’t wait to leave with Qin Kezhang, while Ye Wushuang saw the actress off to her car.
“I’m so sorry for bothering you for so long.”
“It’s okay. It’s just that Feiyan jie, you…” Ye Wushuang looked at the actress’s pale face. She couldn’t imagine how the glamorous actress on TV had become so haggard.
A wry smile touched the actress’s lips. She attempted to mask her emotions, but ultimately gave up. Starting the engine, she prepared to leave. She felt that another second’s delay might break the dam, unleashing another torrent of tears, brought on by this small act of kindness.
Ye Wushuang could hear her thoughts.
She had entered the entertainment industry merely to make a living. Her life had revolved around her husband and her child, leaving her feeling as though she had lost herself along the way. The actress felt adrift, yet she kept driving, her expression vacant and dazed.
Ye Wushuang still felt uneasy. She was going to fly in the air to escort the actress home. Who knew, she wasn’t going to the city.
Ye Wushuang saw the sign for XX County. She realized what the actress was doing so late at night.
“Crazy, she’s completely crazy!” Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but mutter to herself, but she didn’t know what emotion she was feeling.
She felt like she should let the actress find her child by driving for four or five hours at night according to her own wishes, but she couldn’t feel at ease.
Just as Ye Wushuang was hesitating, an accident happened.
To avoid a car coming towards her, the actress’s car crashed into a tree. The driver on the other side was drunk driving. Thinking he had killed the actress, he ran away.
Seeing this, how could Ye Wushuang sit still? She quickly flew down, but she saw that the actress had fainted. She had hit her head.
“Feiyan jie, Feiyan jie.”
She called out the actress’s name, but she didn’t respond. Ye Wushuang sighed helplessly. She took out her phone and wanted to call 120, but the actress woke up.
“Don’t call. Just let me rest for a while.” The actress pleaded, although she had many questions about Ye Wushuang’s appearance.
“No, it’s very dangerous like this.”
“Please, I don’t want anyone to know I’m injured.” The actress begged. As a public figure, she had to hide all her private matters. Even if she was suffering, she would never tell anyone.
Perhaps it was because of this trait that men considered her their dream girl. But Ye Wushuang thought that idea was stupid. Even so, she could only comply.
Driving the actress’s car nervously, she went to a nearby pharmacy to buy medicine and then took the actress home for emergency treatment.
“You’re a really good driver. Did you learn?” Because the atmosphere was awkward, the actress casually started a topic.
“No, this is my first time driving.” Ye Wushuang replied softly. She really couldn’t drive. So, it looked like she was driving, but it was actually the vampire bat that was dragging the whole car along the way.
The actress was immediately startled by Ye Wushuang’s words. Her beautiful face was filled with surprise.
Ye Wushuang’s lips curled slightly. “Just kidding. Okay, it should be fine now.” She said, putting the last piece of tape on the actress’s head.
Each wound was minor on its own, but the cumulative effect of so many injuries was significant.
“Thank you.” The actress could only thank her. She lowered her head, as if she was sorting out her emotions. She tried to smile, trying to use her acting skills, but the next second, her tears came out again.
Ye Wushuang just watched her silently, waiting for her to vent her emotions completely and gradually return to normal.
“It’s already past twelve. Why don’t you stay at my house?”
“That’s not a good idea.” Ye Wushuang was a little embarrassed. Although, in terms of time, she really couldn’t go back.
“It’s okay. You can sleep in my room.”
“Your room?”
“Yes. My husband and I haven’t slept in the same room for a long time. This time, Yueyue ran away from home because she found out we were getting a divorce.”
The actress explained why she called it “my” room. After she finished, she realized that she had told Ye Wushuang too much.
“Sorry, you’re about the same age as my daughter, so I couldn’t help myself…”
“I understand. Then I’ll sleep in your room. Tomorrow, I’ll accompany you to find your daughter.” Ye Wushuang stood up and extended her hand to the actress.
She realized that she couldn’t let go of anyone with a story, even if the actress in front of her wasn’t her “strategy ” target.
“Thank you… Thank you so much.” The actress was stunned. Then, she cried again.
The tears probably represented her gratitude at this moment…
But Ye Wushuang never dreamed that the actress would be so clingy.
The actress: “Sorry, can I sleep with you?”
Ye Wushuang: “…”
The actress: “Sorry, can I hug you?”
Ye Wushuang: “…”
The actress: “Sorry, I just haven’t had anyone to keep me company for a long time.”
Ye Wushuang: “I understand.”
Ye Wushuang suddenly realized with sadness that no matter who she was with, her role was a pillow.
But if she had a choice, she wished she could be Qiu Ruishi’s pillow.
Ye Wushuang glanced at her phone sleepily. Qiu Ruishi still hadn’t sent a message. She could no longer resist the call of the Sandman and drifted off to sleep.
The night grew quieter. The actress, who should have been fast asleep, opened her eyes. Her fingers reached for her earring. But the next second, a sharp fang extended from the delicate earring. It gleamed coldly in the moonlight.
It was silver, the most effective tool in ancient times for easily taking a vampire’s life. And now, it was being carried by a woman.
The actress’s expression changed accordingly. It became cold and murderous. Ye Wushuang, who was asleep, was unaware of this. She had even put some sleep-inducing incense in the room to help Ye Wushuang sleep peacefully.
‘That person said that as long as I kill this vampire, my daughter will never run away from home again, and my husband will love me again.’
‘But is she really a bad person? If she really is a bad person, why would she help me like this?’
The actress’s heart wavered. She realized that she couldn’t bring herself to do it. Just then, as if she sensed the actress’s movements, Ye Wushuang hugged her tighter.
It was a suffocating embrace. The actress was trapped inside. Her tears slid down her cheeks. In the end, she gave up on the idea of stabbing Ye Wushuang’s heart with the silver earring.
‘She’s a good girl. It must be the gods who got it wrong. A girl like this could never be a bad person who uses the dating app.’ The actress told herself this, throwing the earring away. She forced her eyes shut, allowing herself to feel only the warmth the girl in front of her brought her.
