never look back

After Dang Xia left, Su Liu, who was looked down upon by everyone, immediately became a celebrity.

The substantial benefits brought by having a backer were fully demonstrated.

"Xiaohong," the Alpha who stood up for Su Liu was the one who had been kicked by Bosi before. He came over with a licking face to ask for this fine big fruit.

Su Liu nodded, and Ji He grabbed a handful from the basket and gave it to the Alpha.

Everyone was suddenly excited.

Everyone thought Su Liu was ugly, but he was a grateful person. They secretly swore in their hearts that they would stand on Su Liu's side next time.

After all, people like Master Gu's lineage, every one of them, are the kind of people who like to "get something for nothing" or "make the sheep pay for the wool", and have never given any substantial benefits.

Su Liu asked Ji He to carry the basket and returned to the farmhouse under everyone's eager gaze.

It was not time for the afternoon work yet, so Su Liu took a nap. When he woke up, their work had already been arranged.

It was work to weed the Duke's garden.

This job seems respectable, but it's easy to run into vampires.

Some low-level vampires who don't care about meat or vegetables will touch human Omegas. Su Liu and Ji He are both humans with good figures, especially Ji He, who is not as ugly as Su Liu and is still very attractive to vampires.

When Su Liu saw the work arrangements on the farmhouse bulletin board, she knew that Manager Ji had not yet swallowed his anger.

As usual, they went to the workshop to get the tools, and then, led by Manager Ji, walked towards the back garden of the castle.

Along the way, Manager Ji acted like a senior who spoke with earnest words, advising Su Liu to "keep his mouth shut and avoid causing trouble", and also hinted that it was a great blessing to let them work in the back garden.

Su Liu kept saying compliments like "Thank you for your appreciation, Manager Ji," but from time to time she would "self-righteously" curse Manager Ji in a low voice, "Shameless! You're so old, yet you're attracted to me and even arranged such a good job for me, you old pervert!"

This made Manager Ji very angry.

How could he be old? He was still young for a vampire!

Su Liu didn't want to let him go. Even when Manager Ji was about to lose control and wanted to scold Su Liu, Su Liu showed him a "shy and angry" look that said, "If you like me, just say it directly. Why are you beating around the bush? I look down on you."

Being harassed by an ugly monster with "love delusion", Manager Ji was about to have a nightmare. He quickly stopped a passing servant, explained the matter to the man, and immediately ran away.

The servant did not make things difficult for Su Liu, and was even surprised that Manager Ji took Su Liu and the others on a long detour. He then called for a loaded ox cart and took Su Liu and the others to the garden.

The temperature dropped a bit at this time, and some vampires came to the garden to arrange the flowers.

"The center of the garden is the Duke's private flower garden. If you intrude without permission, don't blame us for being rude," several vampires licked their lips, looked at Ji He a few times, and after seeing Ji He's appearance clearly, they made a few dull "tsk" sounds and walked away.

After the vampires walked away, Qi Fengling trimmed the weeds with scissors, while Su Liu and Ji He sat in the pavilion to enjoy the scenery.

There were still some residual blood and torn pieces of clothing in the garden.

The sun was shining brightly, making him feel warm, but Ji He felt cold.

Revisiting the old place, he inevitably thought of that night:

He was pulled by several Omegas and hid in the bushes.

Screams and the sounds of vampires whistling in satisfaction after they had finished their work could be heard one after another.

Ji He was so scared that he started crying softly.

"There's a beautiful woman crying, you scared her," the sound of leather breaking broken branches came from not far away, along with a teasing voice.

Ji He was quickly carried out by the vampire who had bent over and stood behind him.

Behind the vampire, there was a handsome human male Omega.

When the Omega saw Ji He's face clearly, he curled his lips slightly, as if he looked down on Ji He.

Several Omegas who were originally protecting Ji He rushed over and started fighting with the vampires with branches, but were quickly killed by the vampires.

"I love to see beautiful women cry the most," the vampire pulled out his hand that had been inserted into the Omega's chest like a knife. His bloody hand exuded a strong smell of blood, but he seemed to find it very fragrant. He licked it with his tongue and said intoxicatedly, "It's very sweet. How can a beautiful woman be so rude? It's more lovely to be obedient. What do you think?"

As he said this, he exchanged glances with the Omega following behind him.

The Omega laughed and pointed at Ji He and said, "Sir, eat him quickly."

"He is so handsome. I'll tie him up and keep him for last so I can have some fun with him." The vampire pinched Ji He's chin and looked at him with his eyes narrowed in obsession for a long time before letting go.

The Omega who followed the vampire hid the jealousy in his eyes and said with a smile, "Then I'll go find a rope?"

"Don't bother. I have some extra pink ribbons in my pocket. You can use them to tie him up, and then find a room to throw him in. I'll play with other things and then deal with him again." The vampire took out a "take-away bag" exclusively for guests. As long as Ji He tied the ribbon, it meant that the food had been reserved by the vampires, and generally it would rarely be snatched away by other vampires.

"Yes," the Omega took the ribbon swiftly and tied Ji He up.

Ji He's little wife had no power to fight back at all, and was carried by the vampires and thrown into a small room with a door in the garden.

Despair, fear, and all kinds of emotions surged into Ji He's heart, and he soon fainted from fright.

When he woke up again after being touched by those cold hands, the vampire was lying on top of him, intending to do something disgusting to him. Before Ji He could scream and struggle, a silver dagger pierced the vampire's heart.

Dirty blood dripped onto Ji He's face.

"Are you okay?" An ordinary-looking female Omega stretched out her soft hand towards Ji He, kicked the dead vampire away, and pulled Ji He up.

"...How did you do that?" Ji He muttered to himself.

The girl said confidently, "When the vampires want to do something like that, they are defenseless. It's thanks to you that I was able to kill him. And..."

She walked over and pulled the silver knife from the vampire's body, "Besides, I have a secret weapon."

She said this with a playful smile.

Ji He started crying in grievance. Just as she was about to say something to her, the male Omega who had been an accomplice before ran in.

The Omega's body and face were covered in bruises from being beaten by many people. He cried out, "Sister, I'm an Omega too. Do I deserve to die? I was only trying to protect myself. I... I'm afraid of death!"

"Shut up!" The girl slapped her brother in the face. "Now that you know I'm your sister, how can an ugly thing like me be worthy of you calling me sister?"

"I was wrong! Sister, I am your biological brother. Didn't you promise mom that you would take good care of me?" The male Omega began to kidnap her by family.

"Don't mention her to me, you don't deserve her!" The girl was so angry that her eyes were bloodshot. "Get away from me, don't let me see you again."

She didn't kill him because she wanted to keep the last bit of her memory of her mother. Her brother looked like her mother.

But her brother was not satisfied with this. "I'm your brother, and you don't care about my life or death? Fine, fine, just wait for me..." As he said that, he ran away, shouting, "Sir! Someone is using silver to harm the vampires. You must be careful! This demon is here right now. Come and kill her!"

The girl's eyes became fierce, and she quickly chased after her brother and knocked him to the ground with a knife.

Her brother was filled with pain and hatred, not realizing that she still retained some humanity and did not intend to kill him.

That day, she slapped him and stabbed him with a knife, pushing his patience to its limit. "Bitch! Kill me if you dare! You're so ugly, yet you insist on sneaking in to lure vampires. How could there be an Omega as despicable as you?"

"I'm fishing for vampires?" The girl was shocked. She had risked her life to sneak into the manor just to save her brother, but she didn't expect her brother to think of her like this.

"Isn't it?" He said viciously, covering his injured shoulder.

"So that's what you think. They are right. You really don't deserve to live anymore." The girl retreated. Behind her were several Omegas who had hated him for a long time. They approached him with stones and thorn branches.

As if he was about to be beaten to death, he was overwhelmed by the fear that he would be beaten to death. He quickly begged his sister for mercy, but when he received no response, he immediately started cursing.

"Why don't you just die, you bitch? My mom should have thrown you to death when she gave birth to you!"

"If it weren't for you, would I have to eat so poorly, dress so poorly, and be a lowly blood slave?"

"You've ruined my life! You ungrateful bastard!"

The insults that are so far from the truth are unbearable to hear.

The girl was not affected at all and did not bother to explain. She smiled at Ji He and introduced herself simply, "Hello, my name is Xun Ruozhang."

Hello, my name is Xun Ruozhang.

This is the first half of my life.

From now on, I will live for myself.

Ji He opened his eyes.

From now on, he will live for himself, never look back, and be his own hero!

It seems that by deliberately speaking bad words to anger Manager Ji, he was able to bring Ji He here as planned. He also unknowingly removed a layer of shackles from Ji He, and the speed of his soul reconstruction was accelerated.

Su Liu finally saw what he wanted.

She picked up a pair of small scissors and followed Qi Fengling to start trimming the branches.

Ji He sat there for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to face this Shura field.

Soon, he found some Omega relics in the bushes. The evacuation was tight and the rebels had no time to do these trivial things.

A petal-shaped hairband, a blood-stained bracelet, a crumpled handkerchief...

They were buried one by one by Ji He.

He still remembered the owner of this hairband, a girl with a very bad temper.

She always scolded him and told him to stop crying. Although they were just strangers, she never thought of abandoning him until her death.

And this bracelet.

It was a male Omega with a small red peach-shaped birthmark on the left side of his forehead. He was very handsome, but his face was always filled with sadness. The bracelet was his mother's heirloom, and he wore it on his ankle. He said it would be harder for people to steal it, but...

As for that handkerchief.

She was a young lady from a wealthy family. She originally had a rich life and did not have to be treated as a blood slave and ravaged by others. However, she still secretly joined the resistance army. She said that her joining could convey a belief to the resistance army: no matter rich or poor, all classes of human beings will always unite and fight the enemy together!

But she stayed that night.

Ji He couldn't stop crying.

When Su Liu came over and hugged him comfortingly, he began to talk about the tragedy of that night.

Few people can listen to him carefully. Ji He was a little cautious at first, fearing that Su Liu would feel impatient, but Su Liu's expression was very calm, without a trace of disgust, so Ji He spoke in more detail.

"...Even though this is the case, I still don't want to marry the king. Are you willing to wait for me a little longer?" Su Liu suddenly said at last.

Ji He stopped crying in surprise.

Only Qi Fengling knew what Su Liu was talking about.

Marrying the king might indeed be a shortcut, but shortcuts sometimes mean more terrible hidden dangers.
