Chapter 159, Chapter 15: The Cat Master in a Rich Family Novel
Xu Mingjing was somewhat bewildered.
"Blood transfusion?"
After glancing at Xu Qingzhou, Yu Wanwan offered another explanation.
"But...aren't close relatives supposed to not receive blood transfusions?"
It was probably Xu Qingzhou's arrival that gave him a sense of security.
Perhaps it's because Yu Wanwan's voice is so gentle, carrying a calming power.
Despite his anxiety, Xu Mingjing didn't lose his composure.
He tried his best to calm down and attempted to analyze and think things through rationally.
"Can I have someone go to the hospital's blood bank right now to find and obtain suitable blood?"
Yu Wanwan pursed her lips.
Her condition has indeed stabilized.
But light magic is for healing; it cannot create blood out of thin air.
Even she couldn't help the body if it lacked blood for too long.
【Really? 】
Yu Wanwan remained unfazed, speaking with confidence and self-assurance.
She's not my target!
Why should I waste my energy on something so simple and convenient when there are clearly simpler and more convenient ways?
[...]
That makes a lot of sense.
Xu Mingjing was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly rolled up his sleeve, revealing his wrist.
"Let's get a blood transfusion."
His mother...wouldn't want to become a mutant.
"What should I do? Do I need any medical equipment?"
Yu Wanwan glanced at him a couple more times.
She jumped down from Xu Qingzhou's arms and squatted on the coffee table.
Yu Wanwan raised her claw, and a sharp short sword appeared out of thin air.
She glanced at Xu Qingzhou.
Xu Qingzhou nodded.
"Can."
"good."
Yu Wanwan swung her claws again, and with a whoosh, the short sword swiftly and accurately slashed open the wrists of the mother and son.
"Um……"
Xu Mingjing groaned, and bright red blood dripped continuously.
It had barely flowed out when it was guided by a stream of emerald light and flowed into Su Wan's wound.
Xu Qingzhou immediately seized the opportunity and cast a spell of light magic, enveloping Xu Mingjing and maintaining his vital signs.
Blood transfusions are not as troublesome or difficult as one might imagine.
Within minutes, Yu Wanwan had already stopped.
Xu Qingzhou was also very perceptive; after she stopped, he healed the cuts on the mother and son's wrists.
Even after his external injuries healed, Xu Mingjing still couldn't hold on; his legs buckled and he fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Xu Qingzhou pulled him up in time and helped him to sit on the sofa next to him.
Yu Wanwan shook her fur.
Xu Mingjing frowned.
"But the company..."
The tone was still smiling, but the words that came out were not pleasant.
Xu Qingzhou pressed his shoulder and sighed.
"Money can be earned back, but life is more important. Think of Aunt Su."
Xu Mingjing fell silent.
"I see."
Soon, Su Wan woke up.
I slowly opened my eyes, and my vision was blurry for a while before it gradually focused.
What came into view was the familiar ceiling and her son's pale, weak face, which was filled with worry.
“Mingjing…”
Her voice was hoarse and weak, almost inaudible.
"Mom! You're awake!"
Xu Mingjing immediately propped himself up and sat down, holding her hand tightly.
"How are you feeling? Is there anything that's bothering you?"
His voice trembled with the shock of surviving a disaster.
Su Wan shook her head, trying to sit up, but felt weak all over.
Xu Mingjing quickly helped her up and placed a soft pillow behind her back.
Su Wan didn't seem to be fully awake yet; she appeared somewhat dazed.
She subconsciously raised her hand and touched her neck.
The skin there was smooth, without any wounds.
"I...I'm not dead?"
She was somewhat incredulous and confused.
The excruciating pain of sharp teeth piercing her flesh and the despair of losing blood still lingered in her mind.
How could she still be alive under such circumstances?
"It was Qingzhou who saved you."
Xu Mingjing's words were concise, without explaining the blood transfusion in detail.
It was only at this moment that Su Wan noticed Xu Qingzhou sitting to the side.
And the cat in his arms.
Su Wan's pupils contracted, and she instinctively pulled Xu Mingjing towards her.
"Why did you bring the cat in?"
Even though she was still so weak that she had difficulty speaking.
However, her air of authority, cultivated over the years, did not diminish in the slightest.
With intense questioning and worry.
Yu Wanwan glanced at her, gave a soft hum, and buried her head in Xu Qingzhou's arms.
Xu Qingzhou stroked her fur, but before he could explain, Xu Mingjing spoke up.
"Mom, you've misunderstood. You were saved thanks to Juanjuan."
Su Wan looked puzzled and reached out to touch his forehead.
"You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"
It was just a cat.
Besides causing her son to have an allergic reaction and endangering his life, what else could it do?
"..."
Xu Mingjing didn't know how to explain it either.
In fact, it took him a long time to accept the fact that this cat was not ordinary.
Xu Mingjing looked to Xu Qingzhou for help.
Xu Qingzhou lowered his eyes and looked at the cat in his arms.
"Juanjuan?"
He wasn't sure if Yu Wanwan would be willing to let Su Wan know about her special status.
Yu Wanwan didn't look up.
But her voice still reached Su Wan's head precisely.
Su Wan's pupils contracted, her worry for her son overshadowing the surprise at the inexplicable female voice in her head.
After a closer look at Xu Mingjing, it became clear that his complexion was indeed abnormally pale.
At first, she thought he was just scared.
But now...
"Mingjing, is it true?"
"!!!"
Xu Mingjing's breath hitched, and his body stiffened slightly.
Didn't we agree not to tell his mother?
Why is this cat going back on its word?!
Yu Wanwan spoke with confidence and conviction.
Xu Qingzhou had made the promise to him, but she didn't agree.
How can this be called going back on one's word?
Xu Qingzhou suppressed a laugh and scratched her ear.
How could they be so mean?
"Aunt Su, do you remember what happened before?"
Su Wan paused for a moment, then remembered that there were outsiders present.
She looked away, not wanting to embarrass her son in front of Xu Qingzhou.
“I’ve been traveling a lot for work. Things are in chaos now, so I wanted to come and see Mingjing.”
Su Wan tried hard to recall the blurry fragments before she lost consciousness, and her complexion was not good.
"As soon as I opened the door, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of me."
"He was very fast and very strong. I didn't have time to react. Then, I felt a pain in my neck and my consciousness started to blur."
She paused for a few seconds, a look of disgust on her face.
"But when I was thrown to the ground and my consciousness was fading, I vaguely heard him talking on the phone with someone."
"Call up?"
Xu Qingzhou paused for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Yu Wanwan.
"Aunt Su, did you hear what he said?"
Su Wan looked at the two men with a complicated expression.
He took a breath before slowly opening his mouth.
“I heard… Xu Chongshan’s voice.”
Xu Qingzhou wasn't surprised.
He had always known that the head of the Xu family was an absolute selfish bastard.
Despite having so many women, he dotes on his illegitimate child.
That's only because the illegitimate son has a sweet tongue and knows better than Xu Mingjing how to please him.
Actually, that boy didn't love anyone but himself.
Xu Mingjing, on the other hand, stood there dumbfounded, somewhat at a loss.
Clearly, his understanding of his biological father was not as thorough as Xu Qingzhou's.
"What else did you hear?"
Su Wan observed both of their reactions.
He sighed.
This son, after all, still harbors expectations for the bond between father and son.
"It was very blurry. The vampire seemed to be saying something like, 'The deal is done. Patriarch Xu, don't worry. We've made room for you.'"
Su Wan clenched her fists, her eyes filled with coldness.
"Then, Xu Chongshan's laughter came from the other end of the phone. He said... 'Once she dies, I can...'"
She lost consciousness before she could hear what was said next.
But none of those present were fools.
These fragments alone are enough to piece together the truth of the matter.
Su Wan leaned back, regaining her elegant and composed demeanor.
"He did this for the sake of the willow catkins, didn't he?"
Willow catkins are the name of the mother of the illegitimate child.
Even Xu Chongshan himself couldn't remember, but Su Wan still remembers it to this day.
That woman...
Like her name, she is so delicate, yet she possesses a certain resilience.
Xu Qingzhou remained noncommittal, his tone tinged with mockery.
"He still hasn't given up."
Did he think that Su Wan was dead so he could marry the mother of his illegitimate child to keep him under control?
Xu Mingjing's face turned ashen, and the veins on his forehead bulged. After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out two words through gritted teeth.
"brute!"
Su Wan didn't know how to comfort him.
After a few seconds of silence, he simply skipped over him and looked at Xu Qingzhou.
"You won't interfere in the Xu family's affairs, will you?"
Although he appears to be quite lucid now.
But Xu Chongshan was, after all, his biological father, and he had once tried so hard to please that man.
She needs to double-check.
Xu Qingzhou smiled slowly.
"Of course, there is no evidence that the Xu family head colluded with the vampires, so our department cannot intervene. But the fact that the vampires injured people is undeniable."
This means that we won't interfere with what she does.
Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
Once Xu Qingzhou confirmed that Su Wan was alright, he didn't linger.
He left each of them a new talisman and then left with Yu Wanwan.
When Xu Qingzhou said he didn't care, he really meant it.
After returning to the Blood Hunter Division, he immediately rejoined the battlefield.
This time, he and Yu Wanwan split up into two groups, each leading their own men, and launched an even fiercer attack.
One of the two was holding the artificially created Dawnlight Sword.
One of them possesses a silver pistol that requires no human control, appears and disappears unpredictably, and can take the life of a vampire in an instant.
The vampires were no match for them.
They're too busy protecting themselves to care about anything in the human world.
More and more high-level vampires who had scattered elsewhere were being summoned to the battlefield.
No matter how many vampires came, they couldn't withstand the attack of these two madmen.
High-ranking vampires continued to die on the battlefield.
On the human side, thanks to the protection of these two, they were at most seriously injured, but their lives were not lost.
A group of high-ranking vampires gritted their teeth, but were powerless to do anything about it.
"Perhaps we can awaken Prince Xuan Yi?"
