Chapter 288- Gloomy Blood Servant vs. Obsessive Vampire Prince (21)
After that, Wallis inquired about Huangfu Jian from Mu Jin. In reality, Huangfu Jian’s bloodline was considered a secret that the Huangfu family had deliberately concealed.
As for the previous storyline that mentioned the Malkavian family breaking up couples, that did not exist. Although there was a thick barrier between vampires and humans, vampires inherently valued freedom more.
So if there were indeed instances of love between humans and vampires, it would merely be a personal matter for them. As long as it did not harm the overall interests of the vampire community, no one would interfere in such private affairs.
However, the Huangfu family felt guilty and anxious; they had always wanted to free themselves from the control of the Malkavian family. Or rather, they had always regarded the assistance of the Malkavian family as a form of control.
They did not dare to unilaterally dissolve the agreements made with the Malkavian family and were also concerned about their powerful influence. If anything were to happen on their side that drew attention from the Malkavian family, it could put the entire Huangfu family in danger.
Thus, when they came across an ancient book that mentioned how the hybrid offspring of humans and vampires would become incredibly powerful warriors capable of exterminating all vampires and reigniting hope for humanity, the Huangfu family sent out many people to lure vampires into having their children.
However, for most vampires, their attitude was one of enjoying life, making it difficult for them to fall in love with anyone. Moreover, conceiving a child from both races was not a simple matter. After many years of effort, only Huangfu Jian was a successful case.
Once this child was born, the Huangfu family naturally wanted to keep him. Yet they feared that if the vampires found out, they would be unable to keep the child, so they contemplated sending him away at a distance.
Of course, the reason Huangfu Jian’s vampire mother died was due to the intervention of vampire hunters. There were too many sordid details surrounding this matter, and naturally, very few people were aware of it.
Even the Malkavian family initially only knew that a female vampire had gone missing. This female vampire had had many past lovers, and since they could not find her whereabouts, no one made a big fuss about it.
The Huangfu family was worried that Huangfu Jian’s uniqueness would be discovered, so they sent him away from the Huangfu family to avoid attracting the attention of the Malkavian family.
Who would have thought that during the process of sending him away, an accident occurred, and the child ultimately ended up in an orphanage in City S, where he was searched for by the Huangfu family for many years.
Although they relied on some special methods to confirm that the child was still alive in this world, they could not find his whereabouts.
It wasn’t until the recent auction gala that Huangfu Yu suddenly reappeared. His high-profile appearance immediately caught the attention of the Huangfu family, and someone was surprised to find that a young man following Huangfu Yu bore a striking resemblance to Huangfu Hongzhi’s son.
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Hongzhi naturally immediately associated it with the possibility that this young man could be his long-lost grandson.
Most importantly, the young man’s surname was also Huangfu. There aren’t that many coincidences in the world. After investigating, they discovered that Huangfu Jian’s company had been revived after receiving investment from Huangfu Yu. The Huangfu family immediately suspected that this situation might be a conspiracy.
Thus, they contacted vampire hunters, hoping to have Huangfu Jian brought back.
However, what the Huangfu family did not expect was that among the vampire hunters who acted that day, many belonged to the radical faction. This unexpectedly stimulated the awakening of Huangfu Jian’s vampire bloodline, leading to the failure of their mission.
After hearing Mu Jin’s account of Huangfu Jian’s background, Wallis was not only surprised but also felt that Huangfu Jian should stay in the manor. Now that he was being targeted by both the vampire hunters and the Huangfu family, remaining on Malkavian territory was the safest option.
Furthermore, the early stages of awakening a vampire’s bloodline are often accompanied by various physical discomforts, so Wallis naturally hoped to stay by Huangfu Jian’s side to take good care of him.
Mu Jin readily agreed to Wallis’s request. He also had intentions of drawing Huangfu Jian closer, especially seeing how concerned Wallis was about him. He was happy to leave the task of taking care of Huangfu Jian to Wallis, thinking it might even help foster a relationship between the two.
He nodded at Wallis and said gently, “Then I’ll leave everything to you. If you need anything, just instruct the staff.”
Upon hearing this, Wallis showed his gratitude. After exchanging a few more words with Mu Jin, he left and returned to his room.
At this time, Huangfu Jian was still unconscious, lying quietly on the bed, looking exceptionally peaceful. Wallis had never expected things to develop in this direction; although it was unexpected, he felt more joy than surprise.
Today, his relationship with the person he cared about had made significant progress. They had fed on each other’s blood, which was considered an extremely intimate act between two vampires.
He had also kissed his beloved. Although he wanted to take things further, out of respect for his future partner, Wallis simply lowered his head and gently kissed Huangfu Jian’s light-colored lips. After lingering for a while, he finally left the room to find something beneficial for a newly awakened vampire.
Meanwhile, after talking with Wallis, Mu Jin returned to his room. However, upon entering, he noticed that the person who should have been sound asleep in bed was now sitting up, motionless, and staring at the door.
“Where have you been so late?” The tone of the person in bed was gentle, and Mu Jin did not sense anything amiss. He quietly walked over to Huangfu Yu’s side and lay back down in bed, snuggling into his lover’s embrace. Then he told him about how Wallis had discovered Huangfu Jian’s awakened vampire bloodline.
Huangfu Yu was also very shocked to hear this news. Mu Jin briefly recounted Huangfu Jian’s background. Huangfu Yu could hardly believe that there was vampire blood flowing through Huangfu Jian’s veins, leaving his emotions quite complex.
He had always known that Huangfu Jian was exceptionally talented and that he was the true heir of the Huangfu family. In the past, just based on this, he wouldn’t have felt inferior to Huangfu Jian.
However, just now, Xiao Jin had informed him that Huangfu Jian also possessed a vampire bloodline. The combination of both human and vampire strengths meant he would become a powerful warrior. This was something that no matter how successful he was in the business world or how much money he earned, he could never compensate for.
A younger, more talented, and equally handsome young man suddenly appearing before his beloved made Huangfu Yu feel a rising sense of crisis. More importantly, Mu Jin had told him that Huangfu Jian would be staying at the manor for a while to prevent any further ambushes.
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yu could only nod, casually indicating that he understood, but no one could see the shadows hidden in his eyes in the darkness.
Unwilling to continue torturing himself by listening to Mu Jin talk about another man, Huangfu Yu lowered his head and gently kissed his lover’s face. His nose brushed lightly against Mu Jin’s ear as his gentle fingers playfully teased.
After spending so much time together, he knew exactly how to provoke certain emotions in his beloved. It didn’t take long for Mu Jin to be distracted by Huangfu Yu’s actions.
Once the man beside him firmly captured his lips, Mu Jin found himself unable to say a word, only being held tightly in Huangfu Yu’s embrace, thoroughly consumed again and again.
After everything ended, looking at Mu Jin, who was obediently lying in his arms, Huangfu Yu’s expression grew colder. He knew that Mu Jin’s tone when mentioning Huangfu Jian held no hint of ambiguity, but he simply couldn’t tolerate sharing even a fraction of Mu Jin’s attention with anyone else.
The fact that he couldn’t completely transform into a vampire left Huangfu Yu feeling unsettled. Moreover, the significant difference in strength between him and Mu Jin made him increasingly anxious, as it gave him a sense of losing control over his precious treasure.
However, Huangfu Yu could only temporarily suppress his feelings, daring not to reveal a hint of them in front of Mu Jin. This time, through Huangfu Jian being ambushed, Mu Jin mentioned the existence of vampire hunters, which made Huangfu Yu realize that vampires also had many weaknesses.
Although Mu Jin was a high-ranking vampire, there were still some things that could potentially trap him completely.
Through the curtains, the weak morning light spilled in. After a night of exertion, the person in his arms was still deeply asleep. Huangfu Yu lowered his head and kissed Mu Jin’s forehead, gently rubbing his pale wrist.
The skin on his wrist was so translucent that one could see the pulsating veins beneath. If only a silver chain could be tied around that beautiful wrist, binding him to Huangfu Yu forever, forcing him to face only him—what a stunning sight that would be.
Thinking of this, the man’s gaze grew deeper. He could feel his patience slowly wearing thin; the person he loved was simply too dazzling. More importantly, there were too many temptations around, with so many outstanding people and vampires constantly surrounding Mu Jin.
Even without Huangfu Jian, there would be others, like that Julia, who was always vying for his lover’s attention with her flirtatious behavior, or the handsome and powerful Wallis.
It felt as if there were too many potential enemies, including those seemingly lowly servants in the manor. They undoubtedly all hoped to catch Mu Jin’s attention and win his heart. The fact that so many people coveted his most precious treasure made it impossible for Huangfu Yu to remain calm.
Huangfu Yu tightened his arms around Mu Jin, letting out a deep sigh, pondering how he could keep this person with him forever.
As for the fact that his so-called older brother was feeling stimulated and nearly going insane because of his arrival, Huangfu Jian remained completely unaware. When he woke up again, it was two days later.
Upon waking, he immediately felt an uncontrollable hunger. This intense craving was almost enough to destroy his rationality, yet he could not fathom what exactly he wanted to eat.
