Love App, Girl, Come And Taste My Blood - Chapter 96
Ye Wushuang felt her heart acting up. She wanted to avoid Qiu Ruishi’s face to calm her current mood, but the moment their eyes met, it was destined that she would lose this battle.
She couldn’t look away, completely immersed in it.
Ye Wushuang’s gaze was so blatant and direct that Qiu Ruishi felt a little embarrassed. But she didn’t dislike Ye Wushuang’s boldness. She continued, “You’re not going to just stand here in the hallway with me, are you?”
Although there was no wind in the hallway, the winter chill constantly reminded them of the season. Qiu Ruishi’s long hair was wet and loose. She might catch a cold.
“Okay, Miss Ruishi, let’s go back now.” Ye Wushuang imitated Xiao Mi’s tone, making Qiu Ruishi laugh.
She looked at Ye Wushuang’s performance, so lifelike, and continued, “I suddenly think you’d be perfect to work for my family. What do you think? If you don’t get into college, come work for us as a maid.”
She joked about their agreement, her eyes full of laughter.
“Don’t joke. I’m going to be a big boss someday… No, I’m going to be a forensic scientist. That means…” Ye Wushuang didn’t know much about forensic science. Her current love for this profession was just based on her dreams.
“Okay, let’s go back.” Seeing Ye Wushuang’s response, Qiu Ruishi gently pushed her back. They quickly left the bathroom and walked towards the room.
They chatted and laughed along the way. Occasionally, they would encounter other maids, and Ye Wushuang would cleverly use Xiao Mi’s identity to cover herself.
Of course, they also encountered Qiu Ruishi’s older sister. It seemed like she was still in a cold war with Qiu Ruishi. As soon as she saw “Xiao Mi,” she put on a stern face and said, “Xiao Mi, come downstairs. I have something for you to do.”
Just when they were about to reach Qiu Ruishi’s room, Qiu Ruishi’s older sister stopped Ye Wushuang, making her wonder if her use of Xiao Mi’s identity had been discovered.
Despite the countless doubts in her mind, Ye Wushuang could only agree. Qiu Ruishi didn’t stop her either. She just said, “Come to my room later,” and then left.
Ye Wushuang went downstairs and saw Qiu Ruishi’s older sister sitting on the sofa. The other maids had already been sent away. Only Qiu Ruishi’s older sister and Ye Wushuang were left.
Seeing this, Ye Wushuang didn’t think her identity had been discovered. She stood there, waiting for Qiu Ruishi’s older sister to speak.
Qiu Ruishi’s older sister lowered her head and took a sip of her red tea. After several sips, she asked slowly, “Is anyone there?”
“What? Oh, you mean the person Miss Ruishi brought back. There’s no…” Ye Wushuang finally remembered what Qiu Ruishi’s older sister had asked and quickly responded.
But Qiu Ruishi’s older sister wasn’t reassured. She continued to ask, “Did you go to her room?”
“I was about to go in when I saw you.” Ye Wushuang answered obediently. She felt like Qiu Ruishi’s older sister was interfering a little too much. No wonder Qiu Ruishi was so averse to her sister.
“Then go ahead. Tonight, find a way to stay in Ruishi’s room.” Qiu Ruishi’s older sister waved her hand at Ye Wushuang. She didn’t seem to notice anything suspicious about Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang nodded, but she felt something was wrong. She was about to ask, but Qiu Ruishi’s older sister continued, “Go now.” She didn’t give Ye Wushuang a chance to ask. Ye Wushuang was too far away to determine what Qiu Ruishi’s older sister was thinking.
The maids had already gone back to their rooms to rest. The hallway was lit, but it looked gloomy. It was surrounded by railings, and her level 1 teleportation skill was useless.
Teleportation required a lot of space. If it was like the Qiu family’s current situation, with railings everywhere, Ye Wushuang wouldn’t be able to enter. But from what she had heard from Qiu Ruishi’s older sister, it wasn’t her that they were defending against, but something else, like some kind of creature.
Ye Wushuang continued walking, observing her surroundings. Suddenly, she felt a dark shadow flash past in front of her. Ye Wushuang quickly turned on her X-ray vision, but the shadow had disappeared. Though there was a faint smell left behind.
It was like the smell of tobacco, but it was also strange.
Ye Wushuang had never felt the Qiu family’s house to be so gloomy. She continued walking forward and saw something like a talisman pasted on the wall. The crimson characters were written in blood, as if they were defending against something inhuman.
Ye Wushuang curiously approached it. She could feel the powerful energy emanating from it. She couldn’t help but want to touch it. But when she touched it, the talisman glowed, and a powerful electric current shot out from it.
She quickly stepped back. The talisman returned to its original state, like a protective charm for the room.
Ye Wushuang was sure that she hadn’t seen this talisman before. But in a moment, it was pasted on Qiu Ruishi’s door. Coupled with the powerful energy emanating from it, it was hard not to suspect that the talisman had some kind of targeting ability.
She was trapped by the talisman. She had to call Qiu Ruishi to open the door. Only then did the talisman lose its effect. Ye Wushuang safely entered.
She was curious about the talisman. She wanted to try to open the door. The feeling of being electrocuted all over her body came back. Ye Wushuang quickly stepped back. She felt her hand numb from the electricity. She could also smell the burning smell, as if her skin had almost been burned by the talisman.
“When did your family start believing in ghosts and gods?” Ye Wushuang felt increasingly uncomfortable. This room had been completely changed, not just on the outside, but on the inside too.
Qiu Ruishi didn’t answer directly. Seeing Ye Wushuang’s discomfort, she reached out and tore off the talisman on the door, throwing it into the trash can.
After doing this, she closed the door and explained to Ye Wushuang, “No, it’s just that my sister has been a little sensitive lately.”
“Sensitive?” Ye Wushuang was even more puzzled. She couldn’t read that emotion from Qiu Ruishi’s older sister’s expression.
“Yes, actually, she shot an innocent civilian while she was on a case recently… Although she saw a psychologist, she couldn’t get over it.” Qiu Ruishi explained why her older sister was acting so strangely.
“But what does that have to do with the changes in your house?” Ye Wushuang didn’t understand. This was something that should be able to be overcome with time and guidance, but it had escalated to the point of using real talismans.
“She’s been seeing hallucinations ever since. She keeps seeing the dead person following her. And some strange things have happened in our villa. My sister didn’t believe it at first, so she remodeled all the windows, leaving only the front door as an exit.”
“But as she saw the dead person’s hallucination more and more often, she even asked a Taoist priest to draw talismans for the house. She’s been acting crazy every day. I couldn’t stand it anymore, so I tried to reason with her.” Qiu Ruishi explained the changes caused by her older sister’s strange behavior. As a result, the Qiu family had lost its warmth and elegance, and now it was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.
“She wouldn’t listen. She even…” Qiu Ruishi’s voice became angry. She looked at Ye Wushuang, but then stopped herself.
All her words were connected to the reason why Qiu Ruishi’s older sister had argued with her. It was probably because Qiu Ruishi’s older sister had said bad things about Ye Wushuang, which led to Qiu Ruishi arguing with her sister so loudly.
Ye Wushuang listened, her heart filled with mixed emotions. It was impossible not to be moved, but she was even more concerned about this so-called dead person story.
And she was sure that she might have seen the shadow of this so-called dead person.
Ye Wushuang didn’t know whether she should tell Qiu Ruishi about this. There might really be an intruder in this villa.
“Qiu Ruishi, listen to me calmly. Maybe your sister wasn’t talking nonsense. I saw a figure just now. It was very fast, but I’m sure it existed.” Ye Wushuang had never been so serious. Qiu Ruishi’s eyes were full of doubt, but after confirming her attitude, her gaze became serious.
“Then do you think it was a human or some kind of creature?”
“I’m not certain, but it definitely wasn’t human. It slipped past my X-ray vision, but it left a faint scent like tobacco. It’s likely some sort of non-biological entity. However, I haven’t lived long enough to identify what it is,” Ye Wushuang explained candidly. Although she had hoped to enjoy a beautiful night with Qiu Ruishi, it seemed she was destined to be caught up in something even more bizarre.
Even though she was already a vampire, and even though Ye Wushuang had experienced many partings and deaths, she was still uneasy about this unknown.
What was even more unsettling was that the enemy was in the dark, and they knew nothing about it.
Their gazes met. Qiu Ruishi looked away first. She said apologetically, “Sorry, I just wanted to see you one last time this year. I didn’t want to drag you into this.”
Ye Wushuang smiled. If it had been before, she would have desperately tried to escape everything related to Qiu Ruishi. But now, she found that she didn’t want to escape at all. She even wanted Qiu Ruishi to depend on her a little more.
“It’s okay. You can’t avoid this kind of thing… Besides, you’ve been feeding me. I should do something for you.” Ye Wushuang deliberately made a little joke to reassure Qiu Ruishi.
Qiu Ruishi’s stiff body relaxed a little. A smile curved her lips. It seemed like she was convinced by Ye Wushuang’s roundabout way of saying it.
“Then you have to do a good job. By the way… I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold out, so I’ve already airlifted a batch of blood. It will be sent to Paradise Hospital in a few days. Go get it yourself.” As she spoke, she got closer to Ye Wushuang, wanting to take the reward that belonged to her.
“Actually, you don’t have to…” Ye Wushuang was so moved that she couldn’t express it. Qiu Ruishi had done so much for her, and she seemed to always be passively moving forward.
“Shh, don’t talk.” Qiu Ruishi interrupted Ye Wushuang. She closed her eyes and enjoyed hugging Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang responded. She stroked Qiu Ruishi’s thin back. She could feel how frail she was.
“It seems like you’ve been really busy lately. You don’t even have any meat in your back.”
“You silly idiot. If I had meat, it would mean I’ve gotten fat. Even though I’m the kind of person who can’t gain weight, I still have to maintain my figure.”
“Oh, you… Can’t you consider the feelings of someone like me who gains weight just by drinking water?” Ye Wushuang shook her head with a wry smile. She started bickering with Qiu Ruishi as usual.
“No.”
“I wish you gain ten pounds for the New Year.” Ye Wushuang gritted her teeth in anger. She hugged Qiu Ruishi even tighter.
Qiu Ruishi wasn’t to be outdone. She hugged Ye Wushuang too, so that they could be pressed tightly together.
She could even feel the heat from their bodies.
Ye Wushuang was a little dazed. She didn’t know if it was Bai Chi’s bath gel that was making her think irrationally, or if she couldn’t control her emotions at this moment.
She looked at Qiu Ruishi. She saw her own reflection in her eyes. Just when they both felt like something was about to happen, a piercing sound broke the night’s silence.
They exchanged a knowing glance and ran outside. The maids also came running over, and everyone rushed towards Qiu Ruishi’s older sister’s room.
When they looked, Qiu Ruishi’s older sister was lying in a pool of blood. Not far away was a bloody pebble.
In the chaos, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but take a closer look. She used her X-ray vision and easily saw a sentence written in blood on it.
[Murder will be avenged.]
Chaos… This night… was destined to be chaotic…
