Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 392 - 271 Vampire Count (2nd Update 1)

In such darkness, anyone would find their eyes momentarily unadapted. If she hadn’t had similar experiences before, she probably wouldn’t be able to see in such a short time. But in this darkness, Huangfu Huazhang came calmly and composedly, his steps as graceful as ever.

Shi Nian saw him and stood still, abandoning any idea of escape.

Only going towards him.

Yet her subtle reaction in such darkness appeared clearly in his eyes as if metallic.

He walked up to her, looking down, their eyes flickering with strange radiance in the darkness as they gazed at each other.

He smiled, reached out to caress her cheek.

She closed her eyes, not dodging.

The pattern of his palm gently rubbed her cheek. Those intricate, uneven lines seemed to be engraved with the traces of time, silently awakening hidden memories.

Taking deep breaths, deeper and deeper. Shi Nian raised her head in the darkness to find his eyes: "Sir, it’s really you."

He laughed, withdrew his hand from her cheek, and instead grasped her wrist, drawing with his fingertips in her palm: "It’s me."

A huge wave engulfed her, making it difficult for Shi Nian to discern if it was more joy or sadness.

Her nose tingled; she reached out to try to hold Huangfu Huazhang’s hand, trembling slightly: "Sir... I finally found you."

Huangfu Huazhang sighed softly and stretched his arms to tightly embrace Shi Nian.

His movement and posture remained graceful, but this time he added considerable force, tightly locking her in his embrace. His chin rested on the top of her head, surrounding her heavily from all directions.

"It’s me, it’s me."

Shi Nian clutched his clothes, tears quietly falling.

"Sir, why did you come so late? During those four years, where did you go?"

Huangfu Huazhang’s eyes were moist too, "I’m sorry, I came late. Four years ago, after I sent you off, there was a big explosion in the bunker. I was knocked unconscious and woke up in M Country, smuggled back by my subordinates. You understand, given my identity, it wasn’t suitable for the Chinese police to know at that time."

"At that time, I had a concussion and second-degree burns... I couldn’t persuade the doctors to let me leave the hospital to find you. Also, my team’s devotion to protect me led them to give me shots to make me sleep, hoping I’d temporarily give up the idea of returning to find you."

"By the time everything improved, it was more than two months later. I finally could go online and found out on the China police website about the aftermath of that case... only then did I know your father had died in the line of duty."

He took a deep breath, "I tried to track your whereabouts but couldn’t find anything. I realized the Chinese police might have hidden your and your mother’s identity information... I refused to give up and told my subordinates to search worldwide. However, never did I imagine you had come to M Country, so close to me."

"But when I finally found you again, you had already become Xiang Yuan’s wife. I deliberately walked past you, yet you didn’t recognize me at all. Not satisfied, I also silently followed you once, like in the Chinese supermarket in Baoquan Town. I randomly grabbed items to line up with you for checkout—once I even grabbed women’s sanitary products—awkwardly trying to strike up a conversation with you, but you didn’t even have the chance to look up at my face, hastily raising your hand with the wedding ring to show me and tell me you were married."

Shi Nian couldn’t help but exclaim, "Heavens, sir, that was actually you? I never imagined that!"

No wonder he said, "It seems like I’ve seen you somewhere," using such an obscure way to try to revive her memory, yet she misunderstood it as a pickup line.

He laughed awkwardly, "Not only that, but also during those four years. At first, you seemed to have a good relationship with Xiang Yuan; even if I appeared by your side, you wouldn’t recognize me, so I could only quietly watch you from afar. Later, when Xiang Yuan started having problems and staying out all night, worried for you, I could only drive to your home at night and accompany you on that street. Sometimes I’d really miss you and call you, though you didn’t know who I was, leaving me unsure how to introduce myself... helpless, I could only stay silent, just listening to your voice. However, it seemed my calls scared you, making me even more afraid to approach your life, and I could only step back and wait for you from afar. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Shi Nian’s heart was pounding.

"So, those calls were all from you? Heavens, I really thought they were from someone with malicious intent." Raising her head, gazing deeply at him. Her eyes had become more accustomed to the darkness, and even in such darkness, she could see his expression: "Sir, I’m truly sorry..."

He held her tight: "How could it be for you to say sorry? If anyone should apologize, it’s me. If it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have been dragged into that case four years ago; and your father wouldn’t have died in the line of duty trying to save you. All this is my debt to you, nothing I do can make up for it."

Shi Nian lowered her head: "Fortunately, we can finally find each other."

His heart stirred.

She accepted it, she accepted it all...

She was softly in his embrace, and the desires he had carefully restrained suddenly surged beyond control.

He breathed heavily, lowering his head to find her lips.

His tall figure easily enveloped her, pressing her against the wall.

His posture was domineering, yet he maintained his usual grace, controlling his force without pressing his weight against her.

Shi Nian’s back pressed tightly against the wall, her fingertips grazed the luxurious patterns of the expensive wallpaper.

She struggled between resistance and acceptance, countless possibilities of reasoning flashed through her mind in an instant.

Ultimately, she gave up resisting. Her arched fingers released, dejectedly adhering to the wallpaper, her palm’s lines melded with the wallpaper’s design.

Entwined like a flower.

His lips swept over, but he patiently kissed her cheek and earlobe first.

He whispered by her ear patiently, "...Tonight, we have regained a home once more."

His hands lay gently on either side of her neck, patiently exploring, "I have never had a home since childhood. I lived in my grandfather’s house, which wasn’t mine. Because of my blue eyes, my grandfather always showed his disdain upon seeing me... The Ford family where I live now is also not my home. I am someone born within the cracks, owning only halves of a heritage that each side acknowledges. I have never been whole."

"But Nian, it’s different now. Especially tonight, we dined with your aunt, and we were so happy together as a family. Nian, you truly gave me a home."

His voice lightly fell, his lips finally pressed down.

As his lips touched hers, the fresh scent of his cologne spread everywhere, like sandalwood in the fog, exuding a confusing yet captivating aroma.

At this moment, Shi Nian’s palm pressed firmly against the wallpaper, she tightly closed her eyes.

He patiently kissed her lips, patiently waiting for her resistance to ease.

She crushed all her struggles beneath her palms, her lips maintaining a slight, trembling relaxation.

At last, with a heavy breath, he completely seized her lips...

.

In the darkness, breaths intertwined, like the lush flowers beneath her palms.

He gradually shed his elegance and composure, becoming more passionate and urgent step by step.

Lips continued to grind, yet it could no longer satisfy him. He growled lowly, his long fingers slipping into her collar...

Shi Nian finally couldn’t hold back any longer, reaching out to press his hand.

In the sound of gasping, it sounded as equally passionate and chaotic.

She moaned and pleaded, "Sir... please."

His body pressed against hers, igniting a burning desire, "Why, hmm? My little girl, you’ve forgotten how intimate we were in the bunker once before. Be good, don’t be afraid."

Shi Nian breathed deeply, her smile bashful and hesitant, "Sir... you once said you had no experience and wanted me to teach you; Have you forgotten the past, sir?"

He looked slightly surprised, then smiled, "Yes, only with you... My little girl, don’t make me endure anymore. No matter if you teach me or I teach you tonight, we will undoubtedly be perfect."

Shi Nian’s breath was tiny and fragmented, "... Sir, let’s wait until after we’re engaged. Is that okay?"

Saying this, she shed gentle tears, tiptoed, and pressed her tear-filled cheek close to him, letting him sense her sadness.

"With the previous marriage to Xiang Yuan, there were many things I couldn’t decide myself. I feel this life has blemishes, and I am sorry to Mom and Dad. So this time I wish... to walk back on the traditional path and not hastily give away myself. Sir, can you wait for me, are you willing to accompany me?"

Huangfu Huazhang was ignited, yet his face was covered in her tears.

So cool, bit by bit, it lowered the fire burning within him.

He took a deep breath, withdrew his hand from her collar, and neatly rearranged it.

Yet, still with a low growl, he pressed her back against the wall again, with a deep kiss falling back.

The fierce plunder of lips and tongue, no longer the controlled elegance of the past Huangfu Huazhang.

He was a wolf, a Vampire Count lurking in the darkness.
