16. Chapter XVI
The dark red velvet curtain hung silently, and a huge round blood moon rose in midair. He stood against the light, like a fallen angel ready to spread his black wings. Only the eyes were shining, like a ghost fire lit in the darkness, and like a little starlight reflected in a deep well.
One, two, three...... He slowly unbuttoned his shirt and tossed his coat at the end of the bed.
Ji Tang's cheeks burned and patted it with his hand, trying to regain a trace of reason.
"We ...... Isn't it too fast. ”
Dracula King had already taken off his shirt and sat down on the edge of the bed half-naked. He raised his right hand, which looked thin but had beautiful streamlined muscles. He smiled and leaned his face closer to her neck, and his slightly cold breath landed on her skin, causing a shiver.
Ji Tang closed his eyes in fear and shrank to the side.
"Little girl." He bit her ear and let out a long mournful sigh, "You're still too young. The hand that was raised high finally landed slightly, only flicking on her smooth forehead.
"Sleep." As he spoke, he walked past her and lay down on the back of the bed.
Uh, that's it?
Ji Tang looked at his back a little blankly, sat stunned for a moment, and then carefully dipped the palm-sized pillow and lay down against the edge of the bed.
The night was so cold that she only lay down for a while, and then she couldn't help but pull the quilt under his feet. Crawled like a kitten, rolled up the quilt on his body, and crept back.
The city lord, who was disturbed, glanced at her.
"Quilt." She looked evasive, and said weakly.
Dracula King grabbed her shoulders, flipped over, and with her exclamation of "ah", he pulled her whole body to the inside and slept outside.
"Uhh
"Sleep well." Dracula King's arms pressed against her waist, and his muffled voice could be heard outside, "Especially...... Don't move. ”
Ji Tang nodded desperately in the quilt. She felt like she was going to suffocate.
After a long while, the arm that held her down slowly withdrew. There was a sudden lightness on her body, and she dared to drill out half of her face and inhale heavily.
She peeked at the beautiful back of the lord of the castle. Under the thin and broad shoulders, a curvaceous spine extends into the shallow lumbar socket. She couldn't help but whisper, "You...... Isn't it cold? ”
A smile tugged at Dracula Jing's lips, but he turned his back to her and nodded, "Hmm. ”
"Then you can cover it too." I really don't understand how this person's quilt can be decorated, cold-blooded animals also need to be warm. Ji Tang slowly moved towards him and gave him most of the quilt. accidentally touched his shoulder socket, and it was really shockingly cold, so he pulled the quilt to cover him through.
Dracula King did not approve of it, nor did he disagree. Let her move around her like a cat, and the sentence "don't move" just now is also like never said.
Ji Tang finished this qiē with satisfaction. She thought that lying next to a strange man would not be able to sleep. But in fact, no matter how much she reminded herself to be vigilant and precautionary, it didn't take long for her to tilt her head and fall asleep. This sleep is fragrant and sweet, constantly changing all kinds of sweet dreams.
Dracula Jing straightened up, stared at her peaceful sleeping face for a long time, and reached out to pull a strand of broken hair behind her ear for her.
"Meow-" Abandoned in the restaurant, he has just tragically found his way back.
He frowned at it and made a disgruntled "shhh
Miao: Woo woo, I'll run away from home to show you QAQ-
When Ji Tang woke up, the bedside was already empty.
She was still struggling with how to face him. I really found that he was not around, but there was an indescribable loss in my heart.
She went out and stopped a maid, "Where is the city lord?" ”
The maid looked at her with a strange look in her eyes, and only after a moment did she salute and say, "The lord of the city is in the garden." ”
Before Ji Tang walked to the garden, he heard a girl's coquettish laughter from a distance.
"Lord of the city, I hate it! Why do you say that? ”
She stiffened, and subconsciously turned around to leave, but finally couldn't help her curiosity, leaned against the door wall, and secretly looked into the garden.
Charlotte, dressed sensibly, was sitting on Dracula King's lap, squeezing her little fists and smacking him twice on the shoulder. Half of her breasts were exposed, a snow-white wave dangling under his nose, and a long, straight thigh half-hooked around his waist.
Dracula King held the book in one hand and tucked his thumb between the pages, leaning over his head and whispering in her ear.
He was laughing, the most gentle kind, like a sympathetic whisper. He blocked the faces of the two with a book, as if he deliberately did not let outsiders witness their intimacy.
Charlotte's laughter stopped abruptly, as if her lips had been choked by something.
Ji Tang's heart also seemed to be suddenly blocked by something, and his chest was so tight that he couldn't breathe. She thumped her chest and leaned against the wall as she walked out, her steps gradually quickening, and finally she almost ran away.
She didn't know why she wanted to run away, she just wanted to lift her skirt and run away, preferably if she could grow wings and fly, and fly as far as possible.
"Bang!" She bumped into someone around the corner, lowered her head and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Her nose just hurt a little, but her tears couldn't stop flowing down, "Really, I'm sorry." ”
"Miss Sinderretang."
She looked up, her eyes watery and red, like a clear sky.
Prince Will stared at her for a moment, and asked softly, "Did it hurt?" Why are you crying? ”
"Well, nothing." She shook her head, "Nothing." ”
Will looked behind her, his gaze slowly becoming cold, but when it fell on her, a bitter and helpless sweetness rose. He seemed to understand something, and asked rhetorically, "Because of my father?" The tone sank down, with a hint of irony, "He's still so self-righteous that he never thinks about other people's feelings." ”-
"Miss Charlotte, I didn't lie to you just now." Dracula King's smile, gentle with a bitter cruelty, is a blade wrapped in sugar, a blade in cream, "Everything I say is true, I swear." ”
Charlotte was stunned for a moment, then glanced at him even more coquettishly, and said angrily: "Lord City, you are really humorous. ”
"Oh, I'm not a humorous man. Most humorous men are full of lies, and I'm just too upright. Dracula King held up the book in his hand, covered their faces, and put it in her ear, smiling viciously, "Miss Charlotte, you look good. But you always have the stench of scorching on you. This will be unbearable for any man. ”
Charlotte's laughter stopped abruptly as if someone had suddenly choked her neck.
Her eyes immediately turned red, "You...... How can you say such things to hurt a lady and despise my love for you? ”
"Don't you know?" Dracula King pushed her away from him and flicked the dust off her clothes in disgust, "As the rumors say, I'm a self-righteous person and never think about other people's feelings. ”-
"I don't think you're right, Your Highness Will." Ji Tang wiped away his tears and thought for a while, "The city lord is not like this. He...... Although he is not very enthusiastic and kind, he can always be trusted. If he really had been self-righteous and self-righteous, he would not have been able to gain the respect of so many people in Eternal Night City. ”
"That's because you don't know him." Will didn't expect her to speak for Dracula King, his eyes became even more gloomy, and he said excitedly, "He's a demon, a demon who is ready to drown everyone in their dreams." ”
Ji Tang didn't understand this sentence, "What did you say, Your Highness?" ”
Will was silent for a moment, avoiding her gaze, looking away, and said astringently, "Forget my rude words, Miss Cinderretang." I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”
Ji Tang looked at the prince's distant figure in confusion, and his heart suddenly swelled with a little unease-
"The host failed to attack the male protagonist for the first time, and the progress of the task is at an impasse, do you choose to continue to follow up?"
[Yes.] If necessary, the agent can help the host]
"Come on, it was good, you had to provoke Prince Will, and it triggered the side plot."
【……】
"Don't think you're okay if you're dead. What kind of messy plot did you design, copying "Cinderella", and you are sure that other world masterpieces don't ask you for copyright fees, right? At the end of the day, I wipe my ass. The male protagonist's mental power is so high, if he sees it, then I ......"
[Warning, the host is coming in this direction, please return to the agent quickly]
"Phew! Sooner or later, I'm going to take over your managerial privileges. ”
[Beep - the system has been offline, the call has been aborted] -
"Meow-meow-meow-"
A cat slipped out from behind the stone pillar and barked at her like a coquettish.
Ji Tang squatted down and asked it with a smile: "Miao, why are you here?" ”
Misty blinked innocently, slipped into her arms, and lay motionless on her arm. It was so light and dexterous that Ji Tang picked it up effortlessly. She smoothed her hair and sighed: "In the whole palace, only you are still hot and soft, and everyone else is as cold and hard as a stone." ”
"Meow woo ......" fluttered twice, pointing to the avenue outside the palace with his paws.
"You mean...... The two of us sneaked out of the palace together to play? Ji Tang was taken aback by this thought. But it soon became clear to her that it was feasible. There are no guards in the palace, and the city of Eternal Night has always been very safe.
Miao Miao nodded firmly.
Ji Tang was also a little moved, "So, where are we going?" "Cinderretang has been working in the kitchen for many years, and as soon as she goes out, she goes to the market to buy cooking materials, and she doesn't know what is interesting in the city.
The misty eyes seemed to say "follow me", and then a cat ran out first.
Ji Tang hesitated for a moment, looked around, and followed with his skirt.
