Su Chen turned her face away with her strong willpower.
“It’s been so long since anyone’s come here,” Lilith said softly.
Su Chen lowered her head awkwardly and said, "I came to see you because I have something to discuss."
"Oh, how rude! You don't even look people in the eye when you talk to them!" Lilith said, feigning anger.
Su Chen dared not look up, and could only say, "You are so beautiful, I was afraid that my gaze would offend you, so I lowered my head. Please forgive me."
"Heh, you're quite clever, aren't you?" Lilith pulled a thin veil over her shoulders and turned her head away. "You're not here to ask me for a bit of your good looks, are you?"
Su Chen's inner thoughts: Huh? You can even differentiate between beauty?
"No, I've come to ask you something."
Lilith asked softly, "What is it?"
Su Chen forced a smile and asked, "Do you know Tommy?"
“Hmm…” Lilith squinted, as if her memory was a little hazy, “I vaguely remember.”
Upon hearing this, Su Chen asked, "Do you know who he's been in contact with?"
“Oh, it’s been so many years, I haven’t seen him for hundreds of years.” Lilith shook her head. “But hundreds of years ago, he was on good terms with that guy Moore, and the two of them spent every day together.”
Moore? Lilith should be referring to her last name! This matter is very likely orchestrated by the Moore family behind the scenes.
"Then who else is he close to?" Just in case, Su Chen asked again.
"What? You have a crush on Tommy?" Lilith suddenly laughed. "Girl, let me remind you, that guy may seem gentle on the surface, but if you look closely, he's probably a complete scoundrel. Are you sure you know him?"
"I...I don't like him." Su Chen didn't expect that she would misunderstand.
"Alright, let's go. I'm tired too." Lilith gave them the hint to leave. "When Satan comes, you'll have to stay whether you want to or not."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen quickly jumped up.
"Hey, wait a minute." Lilith pulled her down again. "Now that you're down, according to the previous rules, I'll give you a share of my beauty."
Lilith took a delicate little wooden box and placed it in Su Chen's palm, then lay back down.
Su Chen had no choice but to jump up with the box in her hand.
Once the system activated again, Su Chen returned to her room.
Su Chen asked the system irritably, "Hey, this must have cost me a lot of points, right?"
"No, no, no, I'll give it to you this time." The system shook its head.
"Wow, so generous?" Su Chen asked suspiciously.
"Of course! This system is always generous!" the system boasted.
Su Chen snorted and stopped mocking her.
"I think I'll have to go to the Moore family. Can you give me directions?"
【Okay.】The system replied very quickly.
After the great battle, the vampire hunters were busy with feasting and revelry. Su Chen only drank two cups as a token gesture, then excused himself that he was feeling unwell and went back to his room.
Su Chen ran very smoothly.
He found the Moore family, knocked out a vampire, and went inside with his blood and mask.
As I wandered around, I finally overheard two people gossiping.
They talked for a long time before getting down to business.
"Hey, I heard Jack planted a spy in Polydorian."
"Jack? That vampire who came more than ten years ago?"
"That's right! He's capable and learns quickly; in just a few years, he's gained the Earl's favor."
"Ha, he's just a good flatterer, nothing special!" the man continued. "Don't you know? This time, his informant gave him the wrong strategic plan, and the Earl was furious!"
"Yes, I've heard about it. It seems the informant still wants to protect the interests of the Polidori family and wants to make a contribution."
"No, no, no, Count Polidori is on the verge of death, and he doesn't seem to have any plan at all."
Wait... they said Jack?
Jack Moore?
Jack Moore, the guy who likes durian? Isn't he the female lead's older brother? Why is he targeting the Polidori family?
What are you saying?
"Lord Jack!"
"Lord Jack."
The group scattered like birds and beasts.
Su Chen quickly withdrew her protruding head, but it was still somewhat over.
“Come out from where you were hiding, I see you,” Jack said in Su Chen’s direction.
Su Chen had no choice but to dawdle out.
"It's you?" Even with the mask on, Jack still recognized her.
Jack quickly pulled Su Chen to a secluded corner.
Su Chen spoke first: "Isn't he your brother-in-law? Why did you harm him?"
“Heh, if a vampire who imprisoned my sister and never treated her like a human being is considered my brother-in-law,” Jack said sarcastically, “then I really do want to harm him.”
"Because of your sister?" Su Chen frowned.
Jack: "That's right."
“But your sister fell in love with him and had a child with him!” Su Chen shook her head. “How could you be so cruel as to want to kill her child?”
Jack roared, "Bastards shouldn't live in this world!"
"You don't even care about your sister's heartbreak?" Su Chen asked in disbelief.
“She’ll understand! She’s just been blinded by that Benjamin!” Jack exclaimed excitedly.
Su Chen asked, "So, regardless of whether your sister will forgive you or not, regardless of whether she will suffer, you are going to kill Benjamin Polidori, is that right?"
Jack gritted his teeth and replied, "Yes."
Su Chen nodded. "Okay. Then do what you think is right."
Before leaving, Su Chen said, "You speak so righteously, but it's only because you're always thinking of yourself! You do things that are immoral and unethical for your own comfort and for the so-called 'good for others'."
Jack raised his hand, opened his mouth and moved it twice, but ultimately didn't say anything.
