The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress-Chapter 249: Confrontation

The music festival was filled with a cacophony of voices. If one didn't look carefully, no one would notice Feng Xi standing not far away.

But through some sort of animal-like instinct, Anderson spotted him at once.

Upon noticing Feng Xi's gaze fixed on Chloe, Anderson's demeanor suddenly turned gloomy.

Sensing his change, Chloe turned her head, cocktail between her teeth, and looked at him nonchalantly. "What are you looking at? Why the expression?"

Anderson withdrew his gaze and looked down at Chloe in front of him, saying softly, "It's nothing."

"Is the young miss feeling hot?"

Chloe glanced at the student bands on the music festival stage and chuckled, "A bit, but it's not a big deal."

Anderson didn't know if it was a big deal or not, he only knew that Chloe was indeed very hot right now.

So he took out a cooling patch from his jacket pocket and stuck it on the back of Chloe's hand.

Feeling the sudden coolness on her hand, Chloe looked down and discovered what was stuck there.

She frowned and said with disdain, "This thing looks awful, it's ugly as sin. Take it off."

Anderson looked closely and agreed it wasn't particularly pretty, so he had to remove the cooling patch.

He pondered that next time he should buy some nicer-looking ones, otherwise Chloe wouldn't like them.

As he was thinking this, footsteps approached the pair.

Chloe turned towards the sound and was met with a beautiful, somewhat effeminate face.

She was momentarily stunned, slightly dazzled by this face.

Beautiful, effeminate, like a girl.

These characteristics combined, and Chloe instantly recalled:

"You're Feng Xi?"

Hearing Chloe accurately say his name, Feng Xi's face flashed with joy: "Yes, it's me!"

At this moment, Feng Xi had dropped his usual cold demeanor he showed to others, instead appearing somewhat shy: "I didn't expect the young miss to remember me. I've liked you since five years ago, but because I never had the chance to tell you, so..."

"Is that so." Chloe tilted her head, looking at the young man before her with an expression of undisguised interest.

Tonight, Chloe's attire was different from usual, a style she rarely wore. Compared to her usual dashing look, today she appeared more radiant.

Even in unfamiliar clothing, Chloe showed no sign of awkwardness. Instead, she carried herself with grace, as if she instinctively knew how to naturally utilize her physical advantages.

Feng Xi found himself unable to look away for a moment, while also not knowing where to place his eyes. He could only focus intently on Chloe's face, deliberately ignoring Anderson's hostile gaze.

Not only Chloe, but Qin Huaibei and the others also noticed Feng Xi's presence.

Seeing this beautiful man before him, Qin Huaibei was slightly surprised:

"How unexpected to run into you here."

Feng Xi looked at him and nodded slightly.

Chloe wasn't particularly interested in Feng Xi.

Although he was indeed very good-looking and had clearly dressed up to meet her, unfortunately, Chloe wasn't particularly drawn to Feng Xi's type of beauty.

He was beautiful, certainly, but not the kind of beauty that appealed to Chloe's aesthetic.

The kind of looks Chloe liked, if she had to say, would be more like Anderson's, or the pure and righteous handsomeness of her father Xavier.

Not like Feng Xi, whose beauty had an almost bewitching quality.

As such, Chloe's attitude towards Feng Xi was rather indifferent.

She only asked one question: "Weren't you from the Lanxicha Military Academy before? How come you're at Tagar now?"

As soon as Chloe spoke, Qin Huaibei and the others around snapped out of the music-induced trance, staring unblinkingly at Feng Xi.

Under the weight of multiple gazes, Feng Xi felt inexplicably oppressed, but still answered:

"Lanxicha Military Academy exists in name only, it was just a front for the Joint Military Academy Competition. After the competition ended, my teammates and I were all recruited by Tagar Military Academy." freeweɓnovel.cѳm

So that's how it was.

Chloe and Qin Huaibei exchanged a glance.

She said, "I see. Well, you're quite lucky then. Tagar is the cream of the crop among human military academies."

Indeed it was.

After saying this, Chloe withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes to whisper with Daniel beside her:

"You said earlier that he likes me?"

Daniel: "Yes."

Chloe pondered for a moment, and finally commented: "He's got guts."

The music festival was noisy, and to hear the person next to you clearly, you had to lean in close, heads almost touching.

From the outside, it looked like Chloe and this cross-dressing hulk of a man were in an intimate pose.

Anderson didn't think anything of it; he knew the relationship between these two was as pure as could be.

But Feng Xi didn't know that.

After seeing this scene, he felt a tightness in his chest and immediately spoke up to divert Chloe's attention:

"Young miss, I remember you used to often wear a rain flower stone pendant. How come I don't see it today?"

"Oh, that," Chloe casually replied, "Anderson doesn't let me wear it."

Feng Xi: "..."

He gritted his teeth secretly, and finally said, "I thought Anderson was the young miss's attendant? He seems to be overstepping his bounds as a mere attendant."

With these words, everyone sensed a hint of hostility in the air.

Qu Yan looked at him, then at Anderson, thinking to himself that the young lady was quite popular.

Anderson, who had been belittled, remained expressionless. It should be said that he was very clear about his own advantages and absolutely confident that Chloe wouldn't blame him for this.

Indeed, that was exactly the case.

After hearing those words, Chloe's expression became more serious, and she said:

"Anderson is not an attendant. He is my teammate and a friend I've known even longer than Qin Huaibei and the others."

Qin Huaibei: "..."

"There's no need to drag us into this comparison."

Chloe casually retorted: "Isn't this to emphasize that you all, including Anderson, are equally important to me?"

Qin Huaibei indicated that he didn't believe a word of it.

Meanwhile, Feng Xi's expression had turned quite ugly.

Wasn't Chloe's response just now standing up for Anderson?

Standing up for a lowly attendant.

Feng Xi secretly clenched his fist.

As if Feng Xi wasn't uncomfortable enough, Anderson chimed in at the perfect moment:

"Moreover, given the young miss's noble status, it's not appropriate to constantly wear items of unknown origin."

"I had her wear it before because the young miss thought the pendant was quite pretty. But after she put it on, the young miss experienced frequent accidents, so I advised her to take it off."

These words were pure slander and rumor-mongering.

The incidents Chloe experienced had nothing to do with the rain flower stone pendant. The rain flower stone pendant was just an ordinary pendant without any special abilities.

Anderson simply wanted to suppress Feng Xi's momentum.

Not just any cat or dog could approach the young miss.
