CH 184.1

The Vicious Female Supporting Character and the White Lotus Female Lead: Ch 184, The Charismatic Vampire

Luan Qing Xiao squeezed Nie Zhen'er's cheek with her thumb and middle finger with a smile, "Don't be depressed, me being good to you isn’t just to complete the mission."

"Then why are you doing this?" Nie Zhen'er couldn't think of any other reason why Luan Qing Xiao would be good to herself.

"I told you, because I like you ah, silly girl."

Nie Zhen'er pulled Luan Qing Xiao's hand from her face. She didn’t show an overjoyed expression from her saying "like", instead she glanced at Luan Qing Xiao with suspicion, "If what you just said was true, you transmigrated into this body two days ago and your mission  is to make me happy, you think you’re good to me because you like me, but I think you’re only good to me to complete the mission."

Nie Zhen'er paused, "I have reasonable doubt to believe my idea is right that you are really only good to me to accomplish the mission."

"What doubts?" Luan Qing Xiao asked curiously.

Nie Zhen'er raised her chin slightly and buried her grievances in her heart, pretending to be at ease. "We’ve only known each other for a little more than two days and less than three days. How can you fall for someone in such a short period of time? Therefore, what you just said now that you like me must be lying to me."

"Why can’t you fall for someone in two or three days?" Luan Qing Xiao took Nie Zhen'er's hand.

Nie Zhen'er struggled a little before allowing Luan Qing Xiao to grasp her hands.

Luan Qing Xiao smiled, "You don't believe that I like you, then do you like me?"

Before Nie Zhen'er answered, Luan Qing Xiao added, "Not the like towards friends, but the like towards a romantic partner. You want me to exist in your future life, want to sleep with me on the same bed, go to class together every day, work in the same company after graduation, head to dinner together after getting off work and always stick together and not separate from each other. Zhen’er, do you feel this way towards me?"

After listening to Luan Qing Xiao's words, Nie Zhen'er's calm face became a little flustered, "Although I have thought about everything you said, I think these things can be done between friends, not necessarily only for couples. "

Luan Qing Xiao explained, "What I said just now is what I imagined my life to be with my lover. I can have no friends in my future life, but I must have a significant other. I don't want to sleep with my friends on the same bed, I just want to be with my lover. Towards friends, I don’t get the idea of being together and never staying apart.”

"Zhen'er, admit it, you like me and want to be my girlfriend." Luan Qing Xiao tempted her with a whisper.

Nie Zhen'er's heart had already begun to waver. She kept telling herself that she only regarded Luan Qing Xiao as a friend, but under Luan Qing Xiao's words, Nie Zhen'er steadily was losing ground.

"Alright, I’ll admit it!" Nie Zhen'er closed her eyes and gave in.

"I just like you, like you said, the kind of like towards a lover, not a friend. I admit that I have fallen in love with you in such a short period of time."

The corners of Nie Zhen'er's eyes were slightly moist. Luan Qing Xiao let go of her hands and wiped away the tears for her, "So I didn't lie to you, I only want you to be good to you because I like you and want you to be more and more happy."

"Silly girl, we’re both mutually in love with each other. What are you crying about?"

Nie Zhen'er slowly opened her eyes, her slender eyelashes trembling, "Mutually in love with each other?"

"You like me, and I also like you. If that isn’t mutually in love, what is?" Luan Qing Xiao stared into Nie Zhen'er's eyes and uttered seriously, "Zhen'er, are you willing to be my girlfriend?"

Of course Nie Zhen'er was willing, but she hesitated.

"I’m a vampire and my life has no end. When you grow old, I don't know if I will still like you. If I don't like you when you grow old, you’ll definitely be very sad." Nie Zhen’er thought that her body contained the amorous gene from her parents. Even if she really likes Luan Qing Xiao now, she’ll most likely like someone else in the future too.

"You don't believe in yourself, but I believe in you." Luan Qing Xiao said, "Do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Nie Zhen'er asked, "What bet?"

"I bet you’ll always love me. If I lose, I’ll be your blood bank. You can drink from me whenever you want."

Nie Zhen'er frowned, "What if I suck you dry? You’re taking your life too lightly." How could she not cherish her body this much?!

Luan Qing Xiao laughed, "I trust you won't suck me dry."

"I don't even trust in myself!" Nie Zhen'er suddenly became angry.

Luan Qing Xiao didn't expect Nie Zhen'er's reaction to be so big and was slightly taken aback.

Nie Zhen'er got up from the chair. She paced back and forth in the room, her every step was like smashes against the floor, "Luan Qing Xiao, you can't do this." Nie Zhen'er stopped and looked at Luan Qing Xiao stubbornly with tears slowly pooling up in her eyes.

"Drip!" A large teardrop slipped down from Nie Zhen'er's eye sockets, leaving a few water marks on the ground.

Luan Qing Xiao felt extremely distressed. She quickly stood up and pulled Nie Zhen'er into her arms, comforting, "I was joking just now, you know I love teasing you the most."

"There’s no one in the world who doesn't care about their own life. I love you so much. Even if you don't love me anymore, I will protect myself in order to keep watch over you.

"Zhen’er, don't cry. Seeing you cry breaks my heart."

Nie Zhen'er hugged Luan Qing Xiao as she buried her face into her shoulder, bursting out in tears.

Luan Qing Xiao had to comfort Nie Zhen'er for a complete half an hour to calm her down.

She was extremely regretful of her teasing just now. She only intended to tease Nie Zhen'er, but ended up dragging herself into this hole she dug herself and still had to coax the sad Nie Zhen'er herself.

Once Nie Zhen'er stopped crying, she realized how of a mess she was just now and sobbed, "I, promise, hic, to be your, girlfriend, what happened just now, you can’t, can’t tell anyone!"

She was a dignified Vampire Noble Highness and she had cried for more than half an hour just now, which was simply embarrassing.

Luan Qing Xiao laughed at her words, "I won't tell anyone about the private matters between you and me."

That night Luan Qing Xiao took advantage of the moment and stayed in Nie Zhen'er's room.

After confessing to each other and becoming a couple, the interactions between the two were completely different from before.

Luan Qing Xiao became more touchy with Nie Zhen'er. She would pat her head, squeeze her face or hug her waist just out of nowhere, making Nie Zhen'er blush all morning.

"Stop messing around. We have to wash up quickly or there won’t be any food left at the canteen."

Since today is Sunday, the canteen closed half an hour later than usual at nine o’clock. However, by the time the two of them woke up, it was already eight twenty. Luan Qing Xiao kept teasing Nie Zhen’er while she was washing up until she started getting anxious did she stopped.

"I wash up quick. Don't worry, I won't let you wait for me."

Luan Qing Xiao returned to her room and only used eight minutes to freshen herself up.

When she changed her outfit and returned to Nie Zhen'er’s room, Nie Zhen’er was currently changing her shirt. Luan Qing Xiao took a long look before closing the door with her back against Nie Zhen'er and pretended not to have seen it.

"Qing Xiao, what are you doing? Are you already done?" Nie Zhen'er asked as she combed her hair.

Luan Qing Xiao turned around and said with a straight face, "I thought there was a small bug on the door just now, but I guess I was wrong."

Nie Zhen'er didn’t doubt her. She grabbed her meal card from the desk, "Alright, ten minutes to the cafeteria, one minute to get food and nineteen minutes left to eat."

For their nineteen-minute meal time, the two left the dorm, holding hands, and rushed to the cafeteria.

Nie Zhen'er herself didn’t need to eat human food. Her being this anxious was mainly for Luan Qing Xiao's body.

Yesterday, Luan Qing Xiao's statement really scared her. She hoped that Luan Qing Xiao would nurture her body properly and work hard to live healthy, so that she could stay with her longer.

If you want to have a healthy body, you first must develop a healthy lifestyle.

First of all, breakfast must be eaten. It’s the quality not the quantity, that counts and you have to chew slowly. Therefore they must set aside enough time for breakfast.

"We got up too late today. Tomorrow we’ll get up at seven, go to the sports field for a run and then head to the canteen to eat. There should be plenty of time for everything." Nie Zhen'er said as she ran.

"Anything you say." As long as her wife is happy, Luan Qing Xiao has no objection.

When they arrived at the canteen, Nie Zhen'er saw the hanging watch in the canteen and found that they arrived two minutes earlier than expected. Nie Zhen'er excitedly said to Luan Qing Xiao, "You have 21 minutes to eat."

Before Luan Qing Xiao had time to speak, Nie Zhen'er took her hand and pulled her to an empty seat, "Wait for me, I’ll go buy you food."

She had already planned out a diet yesterday. As long as she buys Luan Qing Xiao her meals according to the diet every day, her body will become healthier with the balanced nutrition.

A minute later, Nie Zhen'er returned with the food.

"Here you go, remember to chew slowly, no need to hurry." Nie Zhen'er supported her chin and watched Luan Qing Xiao eating.

Under the supervision of Nie Zhen'er, Luan Qing Xiao deeply implemented the policy of twenty chews for every bite. It took twenty whole minutes to finish the few dishes in front of her.

"We need to digest after a meal. Let's go for a walk on the sports field while it's still not too hot." Nie Zhen'er linked Luan Qing Xiao's arm and said.

Naturally, Luan Qing Xiao had no objection.

One day passed without them knowing. At night, Luan Qing Xiao once again occupied half of Nie Zhen'er's bed on the grounds that she would suffer from insomnia if she went back to her own room.

When class started on Monday, Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er saw He Hai standing at the doorway of the outside classroom before entering the classroom.

There was a thick bandage wrapped around his wrist. The moment he saw Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er, his eyes lit up and he ran over with a cheerful smile, unaffected by the vampire's experience yesterday at all.

"Qing Xiao, you guys are finally here!" He Hai's cheerfulness was toward Luan Qing Xiao. When he turned his head to look at Nie Zhen'er, his expression suddenly became bashful and meek, "Zhen'er, let's all sit together in class later. I’ve already saved us a spot."

Nie Zhen'er responded, "Thank you."

Luan Qing Xiao caught the delight that flashed in He Hai's eyes. Internally, there were a thousand horses galloping in her heart.

He Hai seemed to have fallen for Nie Zhen'er.

Her childhood friend was saved, but she gained a love rival.

Although Luan Qing Xiao wasn’t worried that Nie Zhen'er would fall for someone else, the two had just confirmed their relationship. It was just when they were passionately in love, having another person suddenly intervene between them was awkward.

Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er followed He Hai into the classroom. He Hai had saved three seats by the window in the third row. "I remember Zhen'er likes to sit by the window, so I saved these. What do you think of Zhen'er?" He Hai glanced at Nie Zhen'er expectantly with sweats on his palms, for fear that Nie Zhen'er would say she didn't like it.

Nie Zhen'er nodded, "It's great here, thank you."

He Hai waved his hand like a little daughter-in-law, "You don't need to say thank you to me, these are all things I should be doing."

When the three of them went to sit down, Nie Zhen'er sat down by the window first. He Hai wanted to sit next to Nie Zhen'er, but noticed that Nie Zhen'er was holding Luan Qing Xiao's hand and revealed a puzzled look when she saw he wanted to squeeze inside. Immediately He Hai stopped and smiled flustered. In the end, he sat next to Luan Qing Xiao.
