Chapter 277- Gloomy Blood Servant vs. Obsessive Vampire Prince (10)
They would never have imagined that after arriving here, such a twist of fate would occur—not only did he not die, but he also gained an opportunity to take revenge on them. Given this chance, he certainly wouldn’t waste the second opportunity fate had granted him.
With that thought, a flash of gloom passed through the man’s eyes. Then, he looked again at the young man in front of him. Although the other was a vampire, Huangfu Yu instinctively felt that he could trust him. After all, he had nothing left to lose.
On the other side, after telling Huangfu Yu everything, Mu Jin reached up to rub his temples and sat down on the bed. Although Mu Jin’s mental strength was incredibly strong, he had rushed back so quickly, using teleportation excessively, that it inevitably left him feeling a bit drained.
After dealing with Julia and the others and then explaining things to his lover, Mu Jin truly felt somewhat exhausted.
He quietly stayed in the same room with his lover. Even without looking at him or speaking, simply being in the same space brought him a sense of relaxation. After years of deep affection, as long as this person was by his side, Mu Jin’s mood improved, and the tension in his body eased.
On the other hand, Huangfu Yu felt a bit conflicted in Mu Jin’s presence. In this room where it was just the two of them, while he wasn’t exactly at a loss for what to do, he did feel a bit of awkwardness.
After all, they were essentially strangers to each other. Huangfu Yu didn’t even know Mu Jin’s name. All he knew was that the young man in front of him had a very high status, and everyone referred to him as “Master.” So, should he also address him as “Master”?
Thinking about this title of “Master,” Huangfu Yu didn’t struggle too much internally. However, living in the same room as Mu Jin was still unexpected for him.
After waking up, Huangfu Yu had already been informed by the people below about his situation, and he was told to serve his master well.
Serve? Huangfu Yu couldn’t help but blush. Despite the man’s sharp features, a faint redness showed through that even his usual expressionless demeanor couldn’t hide.
He had briefly looked around the room before and noticed that the bathroom had toiletries for two people, as well as various double items scattered throughout the room.
Whether he liked it or not, his life was now in the other person’s hands. Huangfu Yu didn’t feel he had the right to resist Mu Jin’s decisions, nor was he that reckless.
Mu Jin, on the other hand, didn’t think as much as Huangfu Yu did. Feeling tired, he really wanted to take a nap.
Although vampires didn’t need to sleep at regular times every day and could manage without sleep, Mu Jin still maintained some of the sleeping habits he had from the past world, similar to humans.
At that moment, seeing that it was getting late outside, Mu Jin thought it was still a bit early to rest.
However, when facing his lover, he occasionally wanted to indulge himself. So, he went directly into the bathroom without considering Huangfu Yu in the room and washed away the fatigue of the day with warm water.
The sound of water splashing echoed from the bathroom. Through the glass outside the bathroom, although he couldn’t see the scene inside clearly, he could see the rising mist. Huangfu Yu clenched his fists, feeling a bit tense unconsciously.
He didn’t know what Mu Jin might do to him, and he didn’t even know if he should feel resistant. His mind was in a mess, and his body stood rigidly there.
Before long, the bathroom door opened again, and Huangfu Yu saw a somewhat pale young man walking out barefoot in a silk bathrobe, the fitted robe wrapping around his long, beautiful body.
Water droplets fell from his hair, slowly trickling down into his neck. Although the young man’s face had been steamed by the heat, it still didn’t carry much color; however, his ruby-like eyes seemed a bit brighter than before, exuding a captivating allure.
Huangfu Yu felt that he must be going crazy because the face before him still retained its cool demeanor. But for some reason, he found the young man’s appearance extremely alluring, even causing his heart to beat irregularly.
Having never known what it felt like to be moved in all these years, Huangfu Yu realized that ever since encountering this person, his body had begun to exhibit feelings he could not suppress. So, is this the charm of the vampires?
However, he quickly recalled the female vampire from earlier who had intentionally tried to seduce him, as well as a few other vampires he had seen in the manor, and he promptly dismissed the thoughts that had arisen in his mind.
He had felt nothing upon seeing them, even the woman who had tried to entice him only made him feel disgusted.
Only this person before him was a sight to behold in Huangfu Yu’s heart. Even if he did nothing, just standing in front of him seemed enough to easily stir the deepest desires hidden within his heart.
Mu Jin naturally didn’t miss the fleeting amazement in Huangfu Yu’s eyes and happily curled the corners of his lips. However, the smile was too slight, failing to catch the attention of the man whose thoughts were in turmoil.
Mu Jin naturally threw the towel in his hand onto the man across from him, then sat on the edge of the bed and crossed one leg. Glancing at the man beside him, he casually said, “Help me dry my hair.”
Upon hearing this, the man swallowed hard but did not refute Mu Jin’s request. He gently used the towel to wipe the young man’s short hair. Although he was serving in this way, Huangfu Yu felt as if he had done this thousands of times before.
His movements were very skilled, almost instinctual. After gently wiping away the droplets of water from the person’s hair, he recalled the slight weariness on Mu Jin’s face before he entered the bathroom and unconsciously began to massage Mu Jin’s scalp.
As in countless worlds before, the pressure of the man’s fingers was just right. Mu Jin instinctively closed his eyes, letting out a few comfortable hums, feeling quite content. However, after he made those sounds, Huangfu Yu suddenly snapped back to reality and quickly withdrew his hand.
The fact that his body was stirred just from a few sounds escaping from the other person made Huangfu Yu feel both embarrassed and angry, leaving him hesitant to touch Mu Jin again.
The pleasant massage suddenly stopped, leaving Mu Jin feeling somewhat wronged. But when he turned his head and saw the frustrated expression on his lover’s face, he understood the other person’s feelings.
Raising an eyebrow, he decided not to let Huangfu Yu continue the massage. Mu Jin gently patted the soft bed and said to the man, “Come up and take your clothes off.”
Huangfu Yu was taken aback by Mu Jin’s words and momentarily didn’t know how to respond. Although he had thought about the possibility of encountering such a situation, when it actually happened, he felt a bit dazed.
He swallowed hard, looked at Mu Jin’s expressionless face, and gritted his teeth as he quickly removed his clothing. Since he wanted to achieve his goal, he couldn’t afford to be overly sentimental.
For the sake of the hatred in his heart, he would not hesitate to sell his soul to the devil. Moreover, the person in front of him was much better than any devil.
Huangfu Yu thought this way, but after he gritted his teeth and stripped off all his clothes, he found that the person in front of him was looking at him with a smile, his eyes shining with teasing amusement.
Seeing the man blushing while standing naked in front of him, trying to maintain a calm demeanor, Mu Jin knew that Huangfu Yu had misunderstood the situation. However, he wouldn’t kindly remind him; he just felt that his lover was truly amusing in this lifetime.
Watching Huangfu Yu stand dazed in front of him without moving for a long time, worried that he might become angry out of embarrassment, Mu Jin ultimately had to kindly remind him, “There should be pajamas in that wardrobe you can wear. Put them on, then come lie down.”
Huangfu Yu was momentarily stunned by Mu Jin’s words, thinking to himself why he needed to wear clothes to do certain things.
However, he certainly wouldn’t oppose Mu Jin’s words. He hurriedly opened his wardrobe, not bothering to look closely at the clothes inside. He simply grabbed the very obvious black nightgown hanging on the left side and put it on. Then, somewhat awkwardly, he walked over to the bed on the other side and lay down.
Mu Jin wanted to burst out laughing at Huangfu Yu, who was as stiff as a wooden post. However, considering the personas in this world and his lover’s current mood, he decided to be kind and not laugh out loud. He just revealed a big smile from an angle where Huangfu Yu couldn’t see him.
With a snap of his fingers, Mu Jin turned off the lights in the room, and the curtains automatically closed.
The room was suddenly plunged into darkness, and Huangfu Yu felt an intense nervousness. He heard rustling sounds nearby. In this quiet darkness, it felt as if every sound and sensation were magnified infinitely. Then he felt a cool body leaning closer to him.
Huangfu Yu didn’t make any movements; he simply closed his eyes tightly in anxiety.
Until the person beside him wrapped an arm around his neck, snuggling into his embrace, Huangfu Yu still remained dazed, not reacting at all. It was only when he heard the soft voice of the person beside him say, “Hold me,” that he instinctively wrapped his arms around Mu Jin. Essentially, the moment the other issued the command, his body reacted instinctively, as if he had been trained to do so countless times.
He quickly adjusted his posture, cradling Mu Jin comfortably in his arms.
In that moment of holding Mu Jin, the man felt that the body in his embrace was so comfortable.
Even though the temperature was a bit cool, it gave him a sense of satisfaction he had never felt before, as if his soul were being filled.
In the dark, Mu Jin, finally lying in his lover’s arms, unconsciously softened his brows and eyes. He felt that the exhaustion of the entire day had finally and truly receded. He raised his hand to touch Huangfu Yu’s cheek and said happily, “You’re really warm. Human body temperature is different.”
After saying that, Mu Jin rubbed against Huangfu Yu’s chest and quickly fell into a sweet dream.
Huangfu Yu heard the person in his arms gradually stabilize their breathing and was momentarily at a loss.
Everything he had anticipated did not happen; the other truly just wanted him to hold him, and then he fell deeply asleep in his embrace.
Did the person in his arms not know what to do?
This thought was quickly dismissed by Huangfu Yu. The lifespan of vampires was so long; how could the person in his arms not understand the world?
So this little guy wanting to be in the same room with him actually had no other intentions—maybe he just wanted a warm pillow?
The thought that this might be the true reason made Huangfu Yu inexplicably want to laugh.
Although he knew that the person in his arms was far older than he appeared, he still couldn’t reconcile that doll-like face with his age.
He felt that Mu Jin was like a child who had found the perfect warm pillow and wouldn’t let go. It was a kind of cuteness that was hard to describe.
In the calm of the night, Huangfu Yu seemed to finally be able to think calmly about the events of the past few days.
He felt that the direction things were taking seemed too fantastical, completely different from what he had imagined in his heart.
However, he had to admit that this was turning in a positive direction, and it was already the best outcome he could hope for.
He didn’t hate vampires, nor did he resent the Malkavian family. At this moment, he even felt grateful to Mu Jin for being willing to provide him with such conveniences.
