Chapter 2309: Chapter 2309: Silver Moon Requiem (8)

Ah Gui called people over before; when they arrived, they happened to run into the Werewolves coming out, so they ended up in a standoff.

The original owner didn’t like being controlled by others, so she usually didn’t involve the Blood Clan.

These members of the Blood Clan were requested by Chuzheng once she got here. They are not like the earlier fledglings; each and every one of them is skilled.

"I knew you had bad intentions, having people waiting here for us!" The Werewolf exploded upon seeing Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: "..."

If I say I didn’t know about this, would you believe me?

Clearly, the Erha opposite did not believe it.

Chuzheng put Yin Bai down, letting him lean against her to stand.

Maybe the scene was too eerie, Yin Bai was frightened, and he still clung tightly to Chuzheng.

Chuzheng held him with one arm, taking the phone back from his hand: "I’m not in the mood to fight you guys, I have things to do, let’s add WeChat and meet next time?"

Werewolf: "..." Goddamn add WeChat!

Yet, in the end, for some reason, a Werewolf really pulled out his phone and added Chuzheng on WeChat...

When Chuzheng and her people swaggered off, a Werewolf reacted: "Why did you add her?"

The Werewolf who added Chuzheng’s WeChat scratched his head: "She offered to add me, it’s rude to refuse, isn’t that modern social etiquette?"

The Werewolves: "..."

-

Yin Bai sat in the back seat, with both hands resting on his thighs, sitting very upright.

After a distance from the school, the youth quietly asked: "Were those Werewolves just now?"

"Yes."

"Not afraid?"

Yin Bai honestly said: "A bit... Blood Clan members at least look human, Werewolves are different, they look scary."

But Chuzheng was protecting him just now, so he wasn’t that afraid.

"Are Werewolves and Blood Clan really mortal enemies like on TV?" Yin Bai asked curiously.

"Yes."

Yin Bai asked a few more questions about Werewolves, mostly ones he probably got from watching TV, and most were somewhat comical.

"How did you end up confined there?"

"..."

A few days ago in class, they needed some items, and the venue they visited didn’t have them, so the teacher sent them to fetch them from another venue.

After using them, they had to return them. Initially, another classmate was supposed to return them, but because the other classmate wasn’t feeling well, they asked him to do it.

Who would have known when he was returning the items, the wind blew the door shut.

Maybe the lock was broken, it wouldn’t open no matter what, and he didn’t have his phone on him.

So...

"It was just an accident?"

Yin Bai wondered: "Hmm, wasn’t it an accident?"

From Yin Bai’s description, it seemed to be just an accident, and when she went in, there indeed appeared to be a draft blowing, likely causing the door to shut.

But whether the door lock was broken...

Moreover, isn’t anyone concerned when someone disappears without a trace for two days?

"It’s alright." Chuzheng suppressed her doubts.

Chuzheng suddenly gripped his wrist.

Yin Bai slightly recoiled: "Wh... what is it?"

"I’m checking if you’re wearing what I gave you properly."

"I am... I am." Yin Bai pulled up his sleeve to show Chuzheng: "I’m wearing it properly."

Chuzheng confirmed he was wearing it but didn’t release his hand: "Are you hurt?" When she went in, she clearly smelled blood.

"No... I’m not."

"Tell the truth."

Chuzheng emanated a chill, and the hand gripping his wrist was very cold.

Facing Chuzheng’s calm yet seemingly penetrating gaze, Yin Bai seemed to lack the courage to speak further.

He diverted his gaze, slightly pursed his lips: "I’m not hurt."

"Really?"

"...Yes."

"Take off your clothes."

"???"

Yin Bai looked at her in surprise, wondering if he heard wrong.

"I’m checking if you’re injured or not. There was definitely a smell of blood in that room; how could you have no injuries?"

"I really don’t." Yin Bai covered his clothes.

Chuzheng had Ah Gui park the car; she stepped out and instructed Ah Gui to examine Yin Bai’s body.

Ah Gui quickly returned with a report: "Miss, he has no injuries, only some bruising on the knee, probably from bumping into something."

"Not a single wound?"

"None."

"Miss..." Ah Gui hesitated, appearing unsure whether to speak.

"Speak."

Ah Gui glanced inside the car: "I think there’s something off about his body."

"What’s wrong?"

"Hard to say, it feels strange, like one of our fledglings, yet like a Human at the brink of death."

Chuzheng frowned: "What do you mean?"

Ah Gui: "I’ve never encountered such a situation before... it might just be a misjudgment."

The original owner was not yet an adult, and Chuzheng naturally hasn’t experienced much either.

But Ah Gui is a long-lived member of the Blood Clan; if he’s sensing something unusual...

-

Chuzheng got back into the car; Yin Bai was still fastening his shirt buttons. Seeing Chuzheng come up, he immediately turned away from her, swiftly buttoned up and put on his coat.

Chuzheng explained stiffly: "I’m just worried about you getting hurt."

"I’m... I’m not." Yin Bai bowed his head: "Thank you for concerning yourself with me."

Chuzheng stroked his head: "Let’s get you something to eat first."

"I... I’m not very hungry either."

"Grumble..."

Yin Bai’s stomach didn’t cooperate.

Chuzheng looked at Yin Bai, who covered his face and curled up to the side.

Due to the distance from where Chuzheng lived being too far, Chuzheng directly took Yin Bai back to his home; when they arrived, the food they ordered had just been delivered.

Yin Bai’s home seemed no different from a month ago.

Chuzheng helped him inside and laid the food out in front of him: "Eat quickly."

Chuzheng worried he was hungry for too long and his stomach wouldn’t handle it, so she bought mostly liquid foods and mild-flavored items.

"Hmm..."

Yin Bai hesitated before taking the spoon and slowly sipping porridge.

But after only a couple of sips, his face changed slightly, and he put down the food, hurrying to the restroom.

Chuzheng quickly followed him.

The youth supported himself against the sink, vomiting for a while, and Chuzheng soothed his hand to calm him.

The youth raised his tearful eyes, full of apologies: "I’m... I’m sorry, I’m not feeling well."

Yin Bai returned to the living room, intending to eat again.

But this time, before he even tasted it, he couldn’t help but retch.

"I’m so sorry... I really can’t eat." Yin Bai, with damp hair, looked like a child who did something wrong.

Chuzheng pulled him to sit down: "Drink some water."

Yin Bai managed to drink plain water without experiencing the previous issues.

"Are you hungry?"

"It’s... It’s fine." Yin Bai said: "I’m... I’m a bit sleepy, I want to sleep for a while, is that okay?"

Chuzheng took Yin Bai to his room, watching him lie down.

Chuzheng hadn’t been to Yin Bai’s room before, but last time she glanced from the door, and this room...

"Did you change the curtains?"

Yin Bai followed Chuzheng’s gaze: "Hmm, what’s up?"

"Nothing." Chuzheng tucked him in: "Sleep well."

Yin Bai barely squeezed out a smile and obediently closed his eyes.

After Yin Bai fell asleep, Chuzheng walked to the window and touched the curtains; their thickness suggested excellent blackout qualities.
