The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress-Chapter 168
Chapter 168
Although she said that, in the end, under the man's relentless pestering, Chloe still gave him her terminal communication number.
This cunning man even dialed the number right in front of Chloe. After seeing the terminal on Chloe's wrist start ringing, he finally put his mind at ease, took a breath, and said without any psychological burden despite everyone's condemning gaze:
"Don't look at me like that, I just wanted to test it out, to see if this kind and gentle little person was being deceived or not."
Chloe: "..."
She looked at him with a very complicated expression, and finally said:
"I'm not that kind of person."
After saying that, Chloe gave the Red-haired Robber, who had already completely lost his mind and was nailed to the cross, one last look, then turned and left decisively.
The man saw Chloe and the others off.
Only after their backs had completely disappeared did the man pat the Red-haired Robber's head:
"Hey, do our casinos really have a lot of holes?"
The Red-haired Robber opened his eyes, felt his scorched, dried-up hair, and said irritably:
"How would I know? You drew the design yourself, you're asking me?"
"And next time, don't make me play dead again, I'm a living person, not a corpse."
The man gave a few perfunctory responses, fiddling with the terminal on his wrist:
"Today's haul wasn't bad, I got the Vampire girl's communication number."
As he said this, he found Chloe's number and confidently dialed it.
The next moment, a rigid synthesized electronic voice came on:
"Sorry, the communication number you have dialed does not exist, please check and try again..."
The man's face turned deathly pale.
How could it not exist?
...
As soon as they left the casino, Chloe took off her terminal and handed it to Anderson:
"Destroy my old communication number and get me a new one."
"Oh, and make sure to update my new communication number for all the contacts in my terminal."
Thinking of the man who asked for her communication number right off the bat, Anderson's expression wasn't very good either.
He lowered his eyes and replied, "Yes."
Anderson worked with deadly efficiency, and with Chloe's identity and money at hand, they had a smooth journey with all green lights, further improving his work efficiency.
In no more than a few minutes, the communication number was changed.
"That fast?" Daniel exclaimed. "Having money really is convenient."
Speaking of money, Chloe suddenly remembered that her money bag was still with Qin Huaibei.
She turned to ask Qin Huaibei for her money bag. Qin Huaibei looked at her and readily returned the bag to Chloe.
Chloe shook the bag's rope, staying silent for a moment:
"...Why do I feel like my money bag is much lighter?"
Qin Huaibei dramatically covered his mouth: "Oh my, how could that be? Who stole your money? That's really bad, I must find out who it was!"
Chloe lowered her gaze, glanced at his bulging trouser pocket and the small protruding gold edge, but ultimately didn't point it out directly. Instead, she said meaningfully:
"You've changed, you're not the Qin Huaibei you used to be."
The current Qin Huaibei was sinister and cunning, as if he had prematurely become an ugly adult.
The only one in their group who hadn't changed was probably Daniel, staying purely and stupidly innocent from start to finish.
Daniel perceptively sensed something and stated with certainty:
"You're cursing me in your heart."
Chloe kept a straight face as she lied: "I'm not."
Daniel didn't believe her and rolled his eyes at Chloe.
One has to say, that eye roll was quite reminiscent of a mistress.
The five of them stopped talking nonsense and slowly walked out of the black market.
As soon as they left, Chloe's communicator rang.
It was a video transmission.
When Chloe answered, she saw Xavier's handsome face written with anxiety.
She glanced at Xavier's background, about to ask him why he was calling at this hour, when Xavier directly asked:
"Are you at the underground casino on the Barren Planet? Did Ren Yunying take you all there? The people inside aren't decent, don't go there to play!"
Chloe blinked: "I didn't go there to play."
She said seriously, "I just went in to find my lost money bag."
As the words fell, Xavier frowned and looked at the people behind Chloe, his expression darkening:
"And you're still with your friends? They..."
They're not good people, those not of our kind must have ulterior motives.
Chloe could recite what he was about to say even with her eyes closed. Afraid he would deliver another diss on the spot, Chloe quickly interrupted him:
"We're fine, generally speaking it's not them corrupting me, it's me corrupting them. Father, don't you know your daughter's true nature yet?"
Xavier: "..."
He looked at his daughter, who was full of mischief, but eventually dropped the subject and asked:
"You've left the casino?"
Chloe nodded: "Mm-hmm."
"That's good," Xavier advised. "Never go to places like that again, it's a huge source of pollution. Even adults would be blinded by money after going in, let alone you immature cubs."
"I understand." Chloe gave a few cursory responses, then asked, "We're on the Barren Planet now, do you know why we're here?"
"Ren Yunying took you all."
Upon hearing this, Chloe was somewhat surprised: "How did you know?"
Xavier frowned slightly: "It's easy to guess, she's really lenient with you all, back in our time..."
As soon as he said this, Chloe immediately followed up: "What about your time?"
Qin Huaibei and the others also immediately poked their heads out from behind Chloe: "Yeah, what about your time?"
Xavier paused briefly, seeming unable to understand why these cubs would so naturally poke their heads out even though they knew he disliked them.
But in the end, he chose to ignore them and continued:
"Back in our time, that old hag Ren Yunying locked us and a group of extremely vicious criminals in an iron cage deep in the ocean, and made us, wearing pressure-resistant suits, fight those criminals within a time limit."
"We had to kill the criminals within the time limit to return to land. If we exceeded the time limit, the iron cage would open, and we would be eaten alive by the sharks that had been starving outside."
"Of course, if we were killed by the criminals instead, then they would return to land, and our corpses would be used to feed the fish."
The cubs: "..."
Chloe said with sincere and heartfelt emotion: "How tragic, how cruel."
Xavier: "That's why I say Ren Yunying was very lenient with you all."
He was actually a bit resentful. Why was Ren Yunying so cruel when she was in their class, but so gentle now?
It's said that even if the cubs lost in the arena, they would still have safety guarantees.
Xavier pinched the bridge of his nose:
"The No.1 Military Academy values noble virtues, but in selecting cubs, they practice the absolute law of the jungle, the strong preying on the weak, the survival of the fittest."
"That old hag Ren Yunying, who's lived for who knows how long, was especially like that."
