Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 502 - Blood Clan Queen (31)
Chapter 502: Chapter 502 Blood Clan Queen (31)
“Your Highness, everything has been arranged on Death Island.”
Su Ji reported to Chuzheng about the situation with Karlo and Xia Ci—the consequences of offending Her Royal Highness were truly… miserable.
Her Highness had first arranged for people to abduct the two of them.
So even if the members of the Blood Clan realized it, they would assume Karlo and Xia Ci had been rescued by their own kind, not that Chuzheng had thrown them onto Death Island.
It was too terrible.
Experience had proved that one should never offend Her Royal Highness.
Chuzheng grunted in response.
Su Ji mentioned the recent events and then left the room.
He ran into Bruno outside the room.
Upon seeing this wretch, Bruno’s mood turned foul.
He should have been the favorite by Her Highness’s side, so how had it turned into this curse?
Su Ji found the old man to be very annoying as well.
Both men looked at each other with mutual disdain and left in opposite directions with a cold snort.
After walking for a while, Bruno remembered he was looking for Her Royal Highness the Queen.
He was so angry he almost jumped up and down.
–
Zhi Kong sat by the window, polishing his knife.
Roses bloomed and entwined outside the window, flaunting their brilliance in the wind, vivid and dripping with beauty.
The young man in white, like a sprite amongst the flowers.
Beautiful like a painting, so captivating one couldn’t look away.
Zhi Kong suddenly felt a chill on his back as someone hugged him from behind.
He put down the knife and pushed it a bit further away: “Your Highness.”
“Mhm.”
He called out and then fell into silence.
Chuzheng held onto him, looking into the distance.
The quiet scene between the two unexpectedly radiated a touch of warmth.
Zhi Kong saw the overlapping and merging shadows of the two of them on the adjacent glass, and his eyes showed a faint ripple.
After a while, the person behind him suddenly asked, “How old are you this year?”
Zhi Kong lowered his eyes, “Seventeen.”
“When is your birthday?”
Zhi Kong frowned slightly, “October sixteenth.”
“That’s half a year away.”
“What?”
“Nothing.”
Chuzheng kissed his neck, and Zhi Kong thinking she would bite him turned his head, exposing his long and fair neck.
But she just kissed him for a bit, then let go.
“Is there anything else you want to do?”
Zhi Kong looked up, his gaze intensely fixed on her.
What else he wanted to do…
Perhaps there was nothing left.
The only thing that kept him alive was the desire for revenge.
Zhi Kong shook his head, “Nothing.”
“Then you will stay with me in the future.” It wasn’t a question about his wishes, but a decision made for him.
Zhi Kong’s fingertips tightened, his nails losing color and turning pale.
The wind outside blew rose petals into a spin in the air, falling onto the windowsill.
Zhi Kong loosened his clenched fingers, his voice hoarse, “Okay.”
She had avenged him.
He would repay her.
With his body…
Zhi Kong turned and embraced her, kissing her on his own initiative.
Chuzheng pressed him against the windowsill, kissing amidst the blooming roses.
As the sunlight grew stronger, Zhi Kong tugged at her, “Let’s go over there.”
Chuzheng stood up, picked him up, and drew the curtains, “Let’s go downstairs for breakfast.”
Zhi Kong paused, and with a couple of grumbles from his stomach, he broke away from her, embarrassed, and left the room first.
“Zhi Kong…”
Su Ji watched Zhi Kong hurriedly descending the stairs, scratching his red hair in confusion.
“Your Highness, you’re up.”
Seeing Chuzheng come out, Su Ji quickly put on a sycophantic smile.
He couldn’t fathom why Her Highness had such a bizarre routine.
Sleeping at night, active during the day.
Now the entire castle’s routine had to match hers.
But this was a significant test for the Blood Clan.

“What is it.”
“Oh, I mentioned to you yesterday, the princes said they want to hold a banquet for you.”
“For me?”
“Yes, you haven’t held a banquet since you came back.”
The Blood Clan always loves throwing banquets for no particular reason.
A banquet must be held when the Queen leaves.
A banquet must be held when the Queen returns.
A banquet must be held when the Queen is unhappy.
A banquet must be held even when the Queen is happy.
–
The Blood Clan’s banquets are nothing more than eating and drinking, dancing, chatting, and sharing some bloodsucking experiences.
Facing many from the Blood Clan, Zhi Kong felt very uncomfortable.
Especially those gazes on him, as if they were carrying knives.
“Who is that?”
“He’s really good-looking.”
“I haven’t seen him with anyone… Is he new from the academy?”
“Can’t be right, a gem like this, how can no one have claimed him?”
“Why don’t you go up and ask?”
“Why don’t you go?”
The members of the Blood Clan shoved each other, but no one really dared to step forward.
Just as the earlier remark said, a gem like this, how can he be without an owner.
Such a person must surely belong to someone.
Zhi Kong looked for Chuzheng in the crowd, saw her surrounded by people and unable to leave, so he had no choice but to sit down in a corner.
He tried to avoid those uncomfortable stares as much as he could.
“Hey,” Su Li’s head popped out from a corner, her spirited eyes rolling around, “There are so many from the Blood Clan here, aren’t you scared?”
Zhi Kong glanced at her.
She squatted in the corner, resembling a Mushroom.
Zhi Kong shook his head.
He wasn’t afraid of the Blood Clan.
He just didn’t like the way the Blood Clan looked at him.
As if viewing merchandise…
But she wasn’t like that.
Zhi Kong remembered the way she looked at him, and although it was cold without any emotion, that look wasn’t one that saw him as merchandise, nor was it tinged with any desire.
It was very clean and clear.
“I’m really scared,” Su Li grabbed the chair next to Zhi Kong, resting her chin on the chair’s armrest, “I shouldn’t have come, all because of that bastard Su Ji.”
“Su Ji likes you,” Zhi Kong suddenly said.
Su Li blinked.
A few seconds later, she blinked again.
“You… don’t joke around, he just wants to drink my blood, in his eyes I’m just a mobile blood bank! He’s a cold-blooded Blood Clan!!”
Su Li retorted angrily.
No sooner had Su Li objected, than Su Ji came over.
“Little Cutie, come here.”
Startled, Su Li clung to the armrest, “I won’t, go away!”
“Little Cutie, with so many from the Blood Clan here, aren’t you scared?” Su Ji flashed a dimpled smile, “It’s safer to follow me than staying here, the princess is protecting you, right, I wouldn’t dare do anything to you, would I?”
Su Li: “…”
Su Li looked around, then at Zhi Kong.
Although Zhi Kong was a Human, he didn’t like to deal with her much.
“Little Cutie, look at those Blood Clan over there, they’ve been staring at you for a long time.”
“…”
In the end, Su Li was still coaxed and cajoled, threatened and tempted away by Su Ji.
Only Zhi Kong was left in the corner again.
The Blood Clan are all cold-blooded.
But there are exceptions.
Zhi Kong looked over towards Chuzheng.
Several from the Blood Clan stood by her side, and in front of her there were several Humans in a row, both men, and women, young and beautiful.
He couldn’t hear what they were saying, but Zhi Kong could guess.
Those Humans were selections for her…
“Hello.”
Zhi Kong’s view was blocked.
An elegant, gentlemanly Blood Clan stood in front of him, smiling with a handsome face, “May I sit?”
Zhi Kong shifted his gaze, “You may not.”
The Blood Clan raised an eyebrow, “Who are you with?”
Zhi Kong looked over towards Chuzheng.
The Blood Clan followed his gaze and, from where he stood, could just see Bruno.
The Blood Clan’s expression relaxed even further, “Bruno is my father.”
