Wan Tong is not naïve, but Shi Yue’s tone of luring and deceiving young girls made her somewhat embarrassed.
She kicked him away, glaring at him angrily, “No kiss without love.”
Shi Yue pulled her back and continued to restrain her, squinting his dark eyes slightly. “I know you and Shi Yi have been secretly kissing at school.”
Wan Tong : “…” So what?
“Your three little brothers have been eyeing you, wanting to turn you.”
“…” And then?
“Instead, why don’t I take the initiative?”
“…” Absolutely not!
The more Shi Yue looked at her vivid expression, the more sinister smile appearing on his face. “Do you believe that if I bite you, Shi Yi will definitely come out to stop me?”
Shi Yue could sense that Shi Yi’s consciousness had not weakened at all; he had only temporarily hidden himself.
“Do you believe that if you bite her, I will kill you?” A gloomy voice came from beside the window.
Wan Tong was startled. Fan Tianyi really was unpredictable.
Fan Tianyi attacked Shi Yue from behind, but Shi Yue retaliated. He jumped off from Wan Tong’s body, and Fan Tianyi tried to pull her up, but Shi Yue swung his claw at Fan Tianyi again.
While they were fiercely fighting, Wan Tong sat up and couldn’t control her temper anymore. She said, “Stop fighting! If you break things in my room, I’ll kill both of you!”
After she finished shouting, her heart couldn’t bear it and she lowered her head.
The two boys, who were initially at odds, quickly approached her.
“Are you okay?”
Fan Tianyi knew about her condition, so he spoke directly, “I’ve checked. Back then, Eugene took your body away directly. Later, Xu Xi had a falling out with him and managed to snatch your body and hide it. Your heart should still be with Eugene.”
“What are you talking about?” Shi Yue frowned and glanced at Wan Tong’s chest.
Fan Tianyi gave Shi Yue a disdainful look, “Shut up.”
He couldn’t believe that he couldn’t defeat Shi Yue, this person with a split personality disorder. It was simply humiliating!
Wan Tong didn’t hide anything from Shi Yue and briefly explained her situation. Fan Tianyi, who was sulking on the side, kept nagging, “Shu Wantong, now that everyone knows you’re here and Eugene and Shi Yue have been here, it must have alarmed quite a few people. I think it’s dangerous for you to stay here. Why not come back with me?”
“You can’t even defeat me, and you think she’ll be safe with you?” Shi Yue glanced at Fan Tianyi disdainfully.
“Are you looking for death?” Fan Tianyi stood up.
Shi Yue continued provocatively, “The one looking for death is you.”
Wan Tong couldn’t bear it anymore and said, “Can you all just be quiet? You’re hundreds of years old, can’t you stop acting so childish?”
“…”
“…”
She, who was over a thousand years old, continued licking blueberry jam shamelessly. How could she accuse them of being childish?
Wan Tong drove Fan Tianyi and Shi Yue out of the room, finally gaining some peace and quiet.
However, after a while, she heard a slight movement at the window, as if the wind had gently blown by. But when she opened her eyes and looked towards the bed, she saw the figure of Eugene.
Compared to Xu Xi, Wan Tong was still more afraid of Eugene, so when she saw him, her instinct was to call for help.
Eugene seemed to anticipate her action as his palm covered her lips.
“Your Highness, do you want me to take you back, or would you like to have a good talk with me here?” He maintained a calm attitude, as if he had just come to chat with her.
Wan Tong blinked her eyes and quieted down.
“I heard what you said just now.” Eugene half-knelt by the bedside, removing his hand that covered her mouth, and calmly and gracefully said, “Your heart is not with me. I thought it had turned to ashes, so I didn’t search for it. I only preserved your body.”
“Then… with the werewolf?” Wan Tong asked.
The original owner was ultimately killed by a surprise attack from the werewolf.
Eugene narrowed his eyes, seemingly reluctant to recall those times, and his tone became slightly heavy. “I went to the werewolf’s territory. Their forbidden land was destroyed recently, and the new clan leader was severely injured, still in a coma.”
Wantong assimilated the information in her mind and asked, “Did Shi Yue do it?”
Eugene nodded.
Shi Yue was extraordinary. Not only did he manage to evade the pursuit of the vampire clan, but he also dared to enter the werewolf’s territory alone, unscathed.
For someone like him, why would she need to follow him around every day?
Her interest in Shi Yue was clearly much stronger than it was for Fan Tianyi in the past. She even talked about love with him.
How laughable.
“Who do you like, Shi Yi or Shi Yue?” Eugene suddenly asked.
He had also searched for a long time to find out that Shi Yue and Shi Yi were the same person.
He thought that she liked Shi Yi, that self-deceiving person who considered himself a weak human being. But it seemed like she got along well with Shi Yue too.
“I like them both,” Wan Tong replied. In her eyes, Shi Yue and Shi Yi were the same person, they just have different personalities because of their different stages of memory.
Although sometimes it was frustrating to see them competing with themselves and feeling jealous.
Eugene frowned slightly and spoke naturally, “Your Highness, do you enjoy the feeling of being in a relationship with two men? With your status, even if you were dating several men at the same time, no one would say anything.” So why bother being unhappy?
As long as she was willing, countless people would be willing to prostrate themselves at her feet and let her choose.
“…” Wan Tong looked at him with mixed feelings.
So, in his eyes, she was so arrogant and unscrupulous, towering above everyone else?
“I am picky,” she could only answer that way.
Eugene’s light-colored eyes stared at her quietly for a moment, then he lowered his gaze. His complex emotions were concealed by his long eyelashes. “Your Highness, I will come to see you again.”
After saying that, he gently kissed the back of her hand like a gentleman before getting up and leaving.
Wan Tong looked at his figure and suddenly asked, “A hundred years ago, you received news that hunters wanted to kill me, but you didn’t come to inform me. Instead, you stood by and watched with your people, right?”
This was her speculation based on the plot and her memory, but only Eugene knew the truth about what happened back then.
Eugene froze in his tracks and clenched his fists tightly. “Yes.”
At that time, he was obsessed and wanted to see her fall into trouble. He wanted to appear when she needed him the most.
However, later on, the werewolves also came in groups to ambush, and when he realized things were not going well, it was already too late.
He watched with his own eyes as a hole was pierced through her chest, and she fell.
He couldn’t explain what he felt for her. He longed for her attention, but she always trusted him too much.
So he wanted to make some mistakes to give her a chance to teach him a lesson.
But this one mistake unexpectedly caused him to lose her.
For the past hundred years, he hasn’t had a moment without guilt.
In countless days and nights, he wished that it would be him who fell.
Eugene slowly turned around, his gaze falling on her face. He hoped that she would scold him fiercely, admonish him, but she only looked at him quietly. Her clear voice came through, “But you don’t want me to die, do you?”
Wan Tong didn’t think she had raised an ingrate, after all, for several hundred years, Eugene had never failed to provide her with a living allowance…
Every time she caused trouble in human society, he was the one who cleaned up the mess.
“I have never thought that way, Your Highness,” Eugene replied, already turning away, his tone gentle yet sincere.
He never wanted to see her endure even a hint of pain. He was even willing to give her everything she wanted.
But he wouldn’t say these words, and she might not necessarily need everything he could give.
Unable to see Eugene’s expression, Wan Tong got off the bed and walked around to stand in front of him. “There’s one more thing. Why do you call Shi Yue a thief?”
Eugene carefully examined her expression, realizing that she had genuinely forgotten. Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on his lips, seemingly pleased. “You forgot about him.”
“…” Wan Tong paused for a moment. “That’s why I’m asking you.”
“Your Highness, why don’t you go ask Shi…” Eugene didn’t know which personality to mention, so he said, “…that boy didn’t tell you?”
As soon as she remembered the pitiful look in Shi Yi’s eyes, Wan Tong became dispirited. How could she dare to ask?
Of course, Eugene was also dispirited. He had no intention of telling her and quickly left, leaving only a sentence, “Let that thief tell you in person, Your Highness.”
Wan Tong gritted her teeth and lay back on the bed. When she regained her position as the ancestor, she would definitely teach these guys a lesson.
In the basement, Shi Yue crossed a long dark passage and entered an airtight dark room.
However, after groping for a while, he couldn’t figure out anything.
This was Shi Yi’s basement, and he had designed all the mechanisms here.
The things placed here were retrieved by Shi Yi from the werewolf tribe not long ago. He vaguely remembered that these things were an important factor in triggering his personality split.
When Shi Yue found a hidden compartment, he discovered that a password was required to open it.
After entering the wrong password twice, he didn’t dare to try again. He closed the hidden compartment and turned to leave the basement.
However, when he reached the doorway, he felt a slight headache, and then his consciousness disappeared.
Shi Yi stumbled for a moment, and after regaining his senses, he abruptly walked back to the basement, his expression gloomy and terrifying.
Why would Shi Yue come to the basement?
What did he find out?
A few minutes later, Shi Yi finally emerged. Due to his excitement, he didn’t control his speed properly and almost bumped into the door.
Locking himself in the bathroom, Shi Yi splashed cold water on his face. After regaining some clarity, he looked at his reflection in the mirror.
“Why did you enter the secret room? What are you looking for?”
“I was just curious. What exactly did you retrieve from the werewolf?”
“What happened? Why are you curious?”
“You seem quite nervous.”
Two voices with different tones probed each other.
It didn’t last long before Shi Yi, pressing his throbbing temples, walked out of the bathroom and collapsed heavily onto the bed.
