15. Chapter XV
Katie had never met the Dracula City Lord. In her imagination, it must have been a strange, emaciated and gloomy old man, perhaps a little arrogant, with ten fingers as slender and craggy as the claws of a withered wood. But in front of meβ
Ruyu's slender fingers flexibly cut the steak in the cold dish into small pieces, picked it up on Ji Tang's plate with a fork, looked at her and smiled, with a trace of indescribable pampering in her eyes, and complained to Katie: "I don't know how she likes to eat this kind of thing, there is no nutrition at all, no wonder she can't grow tall." Miss Katie, do you say yes? β
Ji Tang's eyes glowed green, and he elegantly and quickly swept away his cut steak, and his cheeks bulged when he ate it.
Oh, my God! It's been a long time since we've eaten human food! Although this steak looked at most three ripe, and the blood gurgled and gushed out, half-baked, she still swallowed it, eager to lick the residue on the knife and fork.
"Cinderretang ......," Katie choked and said in a stiff tone, "She's always longed for the human life. β
The city lord smiled, reached out and touched Ji Tang's hair, "Honey, can you eat slowly?" It's all yours. β
Ji Tang, who only had food in his eyes, obviously didn't notice the nickname he gave her, and was busy stuffing the steak while nodding like a chicken pecking rice.
Both Will and Katie put down their knives and forks. They felt that against the backdrop of this meaty scene, the food on the table was very unappetizing, and it was no different from.
"Sure enough, human food, only this little thing likes it." Dracula King asked his attendants to remove the food from their tables, replace them with two glasses of mellow and tempting virgin blood, and took a sip from the glass he had in hand.
Will and Katie hurriedly returned the salute. As soon as the smell of blood came into her mouth, Katie almost vomited on the spot. She covered her mouth, her face was pale, and she looked like she was going to faint at any moment.
"What's wrong?" Will asked her in a low voice.
Katie said with difficulty: "Inside...... It seems that I put glue. β
"What are you talking about, how is this possible?" The prince was taken aback.
She gritted her teeth and said, "It must be Xin Deruitang's female cousin, she has long wanted to take revenge on me." As soon as she said that, she realized that she had made a huge mistake.
She looked up in alarm, and sure enough, she saw the deep confusion and surprise in Will's eyes, as well as a vague disdain and anger - how could his fiancΓ©e, a young lady from an aristocratic background, say such undignified words?
"Oh, I'm sorry." Katie desperately squeezed out two tears to make herself look pitiful, "I was so uncomfortable just now. This cup of blood really makes me sick to death. β
Will's face looked a little better. Katie stroked her chest and rejoiced, the prince's ears were too soft.
"What's wrong?" Lord Dracula asked with concern, "Is Miss Katie unwell?" β
The prince preemptively replied for her, "No, father. She's fine. "Probably afraid that she would say something rude.
The city lord smiled and said, "That's good." I've heard that Miss Katie has always wanted to taste this blood, and I've lost my temper a few times because of it. So tonight specially prepared for you, how does it taste? Although he was smiling, his eyes were full of oppression and threat, like a thin rope around her neck, making her breathless.
Katie gritted her back molars, looked at the glass of mixed blood, and drank it down, "It's delicious, my lord." She could barely open her mouth, her throat and esophagus glued together.
Her quenched eyes didn't dare to look directly at the city lord, but she threw herself at Ji Tang on the side.
Anyone stared at with such a vicious gaze would feel cold behind him, and Ji Tang was no exception. She looked up innocently and glared back at Katie.
Dracula King chuckled. He held his chin, picked up a strand of Ji Tang's long hair scattered on his knees, wrapped it around his fingers, and played: "Miss Xinderuitang, you are really interesting." β
Ji Tang also glared at him, "Lord City, each other." β
Dracula Jing smiled and looked at her for a long time before reluctantly looking away. When his gaze fell on the other two, he completely lost the gentle and fresh air, "How are your wedding preparations?" "Cold and perfunctory.
"Katie wanted to have a big ceremony," Will said. β
"That's what humans do." Dracula King laughed mockingly, "Flowers and churches." β
Will's pale face flushed with a faint blush of embarrassment.
"But if you like it, do it. I'm not an unkind parent. As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth for Ji Tang, "My dear, do you also like human-style weddings?" β
"What? Ahem-" Ji Tang choked violently, and the roots of his ears were red.
Katie and Will's eyes widened as if he had just said something terrible.
"What a child." Dracula Jing gently patted Ji Tang on the back and said to his son and prospective daughter-in-law, "Didn't I tell you that I was going to get married too?" β-
Katie's mind was almost broken.
Although her husband had been mentally prepared, he did not seem to be calmer than she was when the time came.
With black faces, they walked out of the restaurant door one after the other.
"Cinderruitang is also preparing for the wedding, so she must be very busy. Can I take another sister, Charlotte, into the palace? Countless thoughts crossed Katie's mind. She felt that she still needed a helper to compete with Cinderretang.
Prince Will absentmindedly said, 'Whatever you want. β
The two who are about to become lifelong partners, each with their own thoughts, are speechless all the way-
"What do you think of this, honey?" Dracula King somehow conjured up a gilded pamphlet, like an advertising collection or something, and pointed to the recommendation image above, "Cemetery funeral wedding, quiet and undisturbed." Let the newlyweds live together in a coffin and experience the resonance of spirit and body. β
Ji Tang looked confused.
"Don't like it? What about this one, a cliff landing wedding. Holding hands and jumping from a 6,000-meter cliff, and then gliding close to the ground, the newlyweds can realize the preciousness of true love from life and death. β
Ji Tang's face was confused.
Dracula King touched his chin in distress and turned two pages, "I don't like it, the lake monster wedding ......"
"Don't talk about it." Ji Tang urgently shouted to stop and made a resting gesture, "Is there the simplest, simplest, and fastest wedding?" "She didn't want to have a heart attack in the middle of the wedding, or suffer from claustrophobia, schizophrenia, or whatever.
"Yes." He immediately closed the booklet.
Ji Tang said without hesitation: "Then let's choose that one." β
Dracula King stood up, propped up the back of her chair with one hand, leaned over half of his body, and stared straight at her, "Are you sure?" Ji Tang's old face turned red, and he turned his head unnaturally, "Hmm...... Yes! β
As soon as she nodded, she was hugged by him.
The world is turned upside down, and the brilliant and bright restaurant is instantly transformed into a dark and long corridor.
"Hey! You ......" she thumped his chest in exasperation, "I'm scared to death, will you let me know beforehand?" β
"I've already asked you." His chest trembled slightly from a sullen smile, "You made the decision yourself, my dear. He walked lightly on his long legs, and the paintings on both sides quickly retreated from her line of sight.
He walked so fast, but he also held so steadily. Steady to her heart. The right cheek pressed against his smooth shirt, which was cold, and her skin was even hotter, as if she had a fever. She looked at his face from below, and the string in her heart was unconsciously plucked again, and again.
"When am I ...... Allowed you to hold me? This was said as lightly as a coquettish, and there was no deterrent effect at all.
Dracula King lowered his face, sniffed in her hair, brushed the tip of his nose behind her ear, and said in a hoarse voice, "My dear, the simplest wedding, of course, has only one ceremony. Don't you know what that is? β
As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked open the door and threw her onto the soft bed.
Greeted by a thin ray of moonlight, he began to untie the bow tie with an unpredictable smile.
Ji Tang really felt like he was suffocating this time......-
Charlotte's carriage stopped at the entrance of the royal palace.
She was led by the maid to the garden behind the castle, where she met her sister, who had not been separated for a long time.
Katie wore a gorgeous baroque black dress with layers of pleats and light gauze tones, and a black gemstone necklace in the shape of a blood moon around her neck. A maid was kneeling down to put on her shoes, the uppers of the embossed brocade, clean and dusty.
She was as noble as a real princess.
Charlotte's eyes turned red with jealousy, "Katie." β
"You're here." Katie waved her hand lazily and motioned for the maids to stand aside.
The two sisters were left in the garden. Charlotte sat down beside her, looking at her sumptuous jewelry from head to toe, her eyes naked/naked/naked with longing.
"Do you want it?" Katie gave her a blank look. secretly disdainful in her heart, her sister, is really stupid without any restraint.
Charlotte scoffed, "Can you still give me Prince Will?" Her Royal Highness the Princess-to-be. β
"Will is mine!" Katie desperately told SΓΉ to be solemn, but in the face of this old rival, she still couldn't help but be angry with her. She took a deep breath, settled down, and said coldly, "Do you know that Xin Deruitang is about to marry the city lord?" β
"What!" Charlotte couldn't believe it, "Cinderitang? β
As a result, the contradiction quickly shifted from the inside to the outside, and the two turned from rivals to comrades-in-arms.
Katie said hatefully: "That's right, it's Xin Deruitang, this slut took advantage of the time that accompanied me in the palace, I don't know what means he used, and he actually seduced the city lord." β
Charlotte immediately joined her in hating the enemy, and cursed Cinderley Tang together, "What a shame! That's the lord of the castle. β
"Rather than let her be the mistress of the castle over my head, I'd rather that it be you. Sister Charlotte. Katie finally threw out her plan. She shook Charlotte's hand meaningfully and said sincerely, "After all, we're sisters, aren't we?" β
Charlotte, a big-chested and brainless fool with an empty face, is obviously easier to control than Sindretang. Although, letting her marry the city lord is really cheap for her. That man...... Even if she doesn't want to admit it, whether it is status or looks, charm or courage, she is a hundred times better than Will.
"Sister, do you want the position of the hostess of Eternal Night City?"
Of course, no one can refuse such an temptation.
