Chapter 1212: The Vampire Prince’s Blood Slave (90)
Proofreader/editor: Mew
It was simply inconceivable.
Bai Weiwei, wearing a horrific1 pink banquet dress, felt like she was as offensive to the eyes as a Christmas turkey, so when all the Blood Kin gazed upon her with strange eyes, she took it as a matter of course.
Who out there could spot a Christmas tree among them and not be surprised.
Arthur wore complicated aristocratic attire, a white men’s suit with gold patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs.
He crooked his arm and allowed Bai Weiwei to lead him into the hall.
His posture was elegant and impeccable, his expression arrogant and indifferent.
Only when he looked at her could one find a trace of tenderness in his eyes.
“Arthur.”
Moore limped over, supported by crutches.
When he saw Bai Weiwei, his expression changed, and he murmured to Arthur, “You’re being too blatant. Can’t you wait until after the Holy Blood Conference before bringing this human out?”
Arthur’s cold gaze landed on the stump where Moore’s foot used to be. He snorted.
Moore trembled. Though his foot was retrieved, one of the bones was missing and would take time to regrow.
Now when he looked at Arthur, his whole body hurt.
Moore’s tone became much weaker. “Once you become the leader, who could resist if you said you wanted a human? Why can’t you bear it?”
Bringing her out at this time would be detrimental to Arthur’s voting score.
Arthur answered calmly, “I can’t bear it. I’ve finally found a woman who could make my emotions erupt; even a second is agony. If anyone objects, I will accept their challenge.”
Wasn’t this bullying people?
Asking people to challenge him?
Having a duel with the strongest Blood Kin was asking to be abused, right?
Moore weakly turned and walked away. “Suit yourself. Sooner or later you’ll die of excessive play.”
Arthur: “There’s no one who could play me to death…”
Halfway through his words, he suddenly hesitated and glanced down at Bai Weiwei, who looked somewhat perplexed.
He pursed his lips, not daring to finish his words.
The Blood Kin’s ability to forbear is said to be when their stomachs were full.
The Blood Kin today were all graceful and well-dressed.
Though everyone’s indifferent gazes would fall on Bai Weiwei, no one would come forward to greet her.
All their greetings were directed at Arthur.
They treated Bai Weiwei like air.
The banquet’s opening dance was about to begin.
The music was cheerful and pleasant.
The ladies would walk over to the waiting area, then the men would come forward to invite their dance partners.
Arthur released her. “Wait for me.”
Bai Weiwei could only walk over to the waiting area and sit on a couch.
The female Blood Kin next to her looked at her with disdain and indifference, then coolly shifted away.
Even if she was brought by Prince Arthur, no one truly recognized Bai Weiwei as his mate.
How could a mere blood slave have the qualifications to sit next to a group of high nobles like themselves?
The banquet decor was incomparably luxurious.
The night revelry was about to begin.
When the music reached its climax, the male Blood Kin slowly stepped up.
They reached out to invite their dance partners.
Bai Weiwei watched as every female Blood Kin was led away.
And she still sat there.
System: “The male lead was blocked by the prince contending with him for the leader’s position. He’s very powerful, and he asked Arthur to abandon you. If the male lead dances with his sister and forms a union between their families, then he’ll let Arthur smoothly take the leader’s seat.”
It was an extremely tempting proposition.
After all, the prince was Arthur’s greatest rival.
There were three great princes. If the remaining two supported him, he would be the undisputed ruler.
Suddenly, the dance music fell silent.
The prince raised his head and announced in a sonorous voice, “Let Arthur and his mate open the dance floor.”
He looked delighted.
It seemed that he had reached an agreement to have Arthur dance with his younger sister.
Arthur’s smile was tender and affectionate. He adjusted the cuffs of his sleeves and slowly approached the waiting area.
On the sofa next to Bai Weiwei, a reserved and haughty female Blood Kin was sitting upright.
The shivered in excitement as Arthur came closer.
Arthur stopped in front of her, and everyone watched with expectation and approval.
Such a beautiful pair.
As for Bai Weiwei, who is that? We don’t know.
Watching this scene, Bai Weiwei suddenly thought–could it be that this vampire suddenly found his brain and realized that he should be the leader first before falling in love?
Just as she thought so–
An icy hand clasped her warm fingers.
She lifted her head and saw this handsome, silver-haired man look down at her, his tender gaze filled with her reflection.
“May I have this dance, my princess.”
