Quick Transmigration: The Villainess Is a Sweetheart

Chapter 130

Angus being a vampire was a bit too outrageous for Jiang Yan to handle.

So he had been acting all this time.

On the empty third floor of the castle, Jiang Yan was breathing slightly heavily, her eyes vacant and expression numb. Her fingers were tightly pinching the flesh on Angus's arm.

Angus sat patiently in front of her, not moving. Just as he was about to open his mouth to comfort his angry little darling, a sudden pain shot through his arm.

Jiang Yan glanced at him lightly, not wanting to hear his explanation.

As the two were at an impasse, light footsteps suddenly sounded on the stairs. It was Prince Roderick and Jiang Yan's uncle Abaniel.

Unable to find news of their leader for so long, the elders of the Vampire Clan were getting restless. With negotiations between vampires and humans imminent, Roderick and Abaniel decided to take matters into their own hands.

Abaniel even brought out a magical artifact for finding people - the Blood Stone, exclusive to the Vampire Clan.

As the two walked down the stairs side by side, Abaniel chattered on about how useful the item was: "Every generation of leaders has consecrated it with their blood. As soon as our lord appears, it will immediately sense him..."

Roderick snorted, his tone skeptical: "This little stone? Can it really work?"

Abaniel became agitated: "Don't doubt it! This is a family heirloom! Our family has always been at the leader's beck and call..."

Before he could finish, the previously dark and dull Blood Stone suddenly lit up, turning bright red and flashing frantically.

At first, Abaniel didn't react, still enthusiastically explaining to Roderick: "See, when the Blood Stone flashes, it means the leader has appeared. If it's flashing this intensely, it means the leader is nearby..."

Roderick quietly stared at him. Abaniel belatedly remembered that this was their castle.

Abaniel silently covered the Blood Stone and tucked it into his sleeve, calmly saying: "It's indeed not working anymore. It's old and in disrepair, so inaccurate judgments are normal..."

However, the Blood Stone seemed unable to bear this great injustice. It struggled incessantly in Abaniel's sleeve, and when he let his guard down, it flew out like a shot. It spun around like a headless fly before finally stopping next to the man sitting by the dining table on the third floor.

Roderick and Abaniel hadn't appeared for so long that Jiang Yan was very curious about what they were up to. So when she heard their conversation, she immediately signaled Angus to be quiet, wanting to eavesdrop.

As a result, while listening, they were exposed. The stone flew to Angus's side for some reason, drawing attention to her and Angus.

Angus had known Abaniel's identity since he took out the Blood Stone. But his attention was still on Jiang Yan's eyes as she peeked curiously.

Jiang Yan hadn't learned much about vampire skills and was a vampire without abilities.

But Roderick and Abaniel, being from the older generation, knew vampire characteristics all too well.

Earlier, they hadn't noticed their little darling was here, let alone that someone was facing her.

But when that person looked up, his deep blue eyes immediately startled Roderick and Abaniel. Add to that the Blood Stone circling around him and the faint sense of pressure emanating from him...

Roderick and Abaniel bowed in unison, addressing him: "My Lord!"

The drama had come right to her doorstep.

Perhaps because she'd had too many shocks today, Jiang Yan was numb to it all. She looked at the smiling, silent Angus as if he were a crafty old fox.

Roderick glanced at his little darling, then at the leader they had been desperately searching for. Trying to maintain his composure, he probed: "My Lord, the negotiation date is approaching. We've sent people everywhere looking for you. How... did you end up here?"

Guessing that Jiang Yan didn't like hearing this, Angus gently ruffled her hair and said softly: "If you don't want to listen, go out and play. Don't worry about us."

Abaniel respectfully lowered his eyes, but stared at that hand, gritting his teeth rebelliously.

Jiang Yan stood up promptly, said goodbye to her father and uncle, and went upstairs to find Zheng Xiaojie.

On the top floor, Zheng Xiaojie was basking in the not-so-warm sunlight while frantically catching up on homework sprawled on a ledge.

Jiang Yan couldn't bear to watch and had someone bring her a desk and chair set.

Zheng Xiaojie was moved to tears. She sat down to do her homework while complaining to Jiang Yan about how annoying their teacher was. Jiang Yan turned into a little bat and hung upside down under the table to nap.

Meanwhile, as soon as Angus and Roderick finished discussing official business, Abaniel sat down without fear and said: "Now that work matters are settled, let's talk about personal affairs."

The class relationships among vampires weren't actually very rigid, especially among the upper-class vampires in leadership positions. The role of the leader was essentially that of a vampire representative with half the actual power, whose main task was to handle vampire affairs. In simpler terms, he was like a company agent hired by all the elders.

However, this time they had hired Angus, who wasn't particularly fond of work, so they often couldn't find him.

Vampires had very open-minded attitudes and Roderick and Abaniel were quite accepting of various things. But! This didn't include their little darling!

The two father figures took a firm stance, insisting on breaking up this couple with a ten-century age gap.

Angus shook his head and decided to come clean.
