Because of the heavy workload in Bai Chen school, they have a late winter break. Generally speaking, this winter break is only half a month.
A few days after the holiday, it will be the first day of the new year.
The Zhan’s New Year is very traditional. On every New Year’s Day, the main and side branches of the Zhan will return to the old house to celebrate New Year together. This year is of course no exception.
But even if they has to go back for the New Year, Rong Shiyi is still very keen on purchasing things for the Chinese New Year. Every day she will take Bai Chen to go shopping in the mall outside, she also brought all kinds of red and festive clothing for Bai Chen.
It was the third day of the new year when they came back from the old house after the New Year. Many people came to visit the house one after another.
On the fifth day, an unexpected visitor comes to the house.
In the morning, Bai Chen put on the bright red hooded down jacket under Rong Shiyi’s suggestion. The bright red makes Bai Chen’s already fair face even more smooth and tender. He looks just like a little fairy, fresh and delicious. Rong Shiyi’s eyes light up.
In a few days, Bai Chen will start school again. Rong Shiyi was afraid that Bai Chen’s studies would be too much that he won’t have time to go out so she made Zhan Cheng take over Zhan Yucheng’s business and make Zhan Yucheng take Bai Chen out to play. As a result, their car has just driven out of the villa gate when they were stopped.
“Hello, I am Ye Ping, the head of the National Exorcist Association. This time I made a special trip to visit Mr. Zhan. I also hope that Mr. Zhan can take some time to talk.” Outside the window, a man in his forties, wearing a long trench coat, said.
Obviously the man’s voice is not loud and the sound insulation of the car is also very good, it stands to reason that Bai Chen and Zhan Yucheng should not be able to hear the man’s words in the car, but the man’s voice was clearly transmitted into the car.
Bai Chen frowned, displeased.
Not only because the trip with Zhan Yucheng was interrupted but also because the National Exorcist Association represents trouble for them now.
Although Ye Ping looked very polite, his attitude was forceful, and behind him stood the country. This discussion is also made in the name of the country, so if Zhan Yucheng doesn’t want to be troubled by them, he could only accept this discussion.
Rong Shiyi was surprised to see Bai Chen and Zhan Yucheng came back. She was about to ask why, then she saw Ye Ping following behind the two of them.
Ye Ping had already investigated the Zhan family, so he naturally knew the identity of Rong Shiyi. He greeted Rong Shiyi in a friendly manner, then gave her a make up reason for the visit.
In the study room, Ye Ping looked at Bai Chen, who was sitting beside Zhan Yucheng, hesitated and didn’t speak.
Zhan Yucheng was in a bad mood so his tone was also very cold, “Mr. Ye, I don’t have much time.”
Ye Ping frowned. Helooked at the unmoved Bai Chen and Zhan Yucheng. Finally, he sighed in his heart.
He opened his mouth and said: “Mr. Zhan, this Ye came this time for the peaceful coexistence of humans and the vampires.”
Zhan Yucheng looked as if he was listening.
“Mr. Zhan should probably be aware of the current situation between humans and the vampires. The vampires and the human strength are equal, just right for mutual suppression. It is precisely because of the stable balance between the humans and vampires that the two sides can get along well now.”
“But this kind of balanced life that humans have managed to maintain is not what the vampires wanted. They have maintained their ambitions of wanting to overturn the rule of humans and want to rule over humans. They see humans as food. Once they achieve their goals, we, the humans, will be like caged birds for the vampires, just like fish on a chopping board. At that time, the life and death of humans will be beyond their control.”
Zhan Yucheng clearly knew what Ye Ping was trying to say, it was just to tell him, since he had not participated with the vampires before then don’t participate in the future.
Sure enough, Ye Ping continued: “And now the balance between humans and vampires will be broken, the key to breaking the balance is Mr. Zhan. We know it’s too much to ask you, the vampire royal family, to do so but for the safety of the humans, we can only be shameless. And please continue to be an ordinary person, don’t go back to the vampires.”
“You also have relatives who are human now,” Having said that, Ye Ping looked at Bai Chen: “Presumably you should be able to understand our feelings. We don’t want to lose the loved ones around us, looking on as those people around us have an accident one by one that we can’t do anything to stop it.”
Ye Ping said til here, he suddenly bent down, his body and legs are at 90 degree angle, bowing to Zhan Yucheng, “I also hope that Mr. Zhan can stand on our human side.”
His attitude is very sincere.
Zhan Yucheng sat on the chair, his index finger tapping the table lightly. He looked up at Ye Ping, his tone flat and indifferent: “I don’t care about the trouble between the humans and vampires.”
Hearing Zhan Yucheng’s words with his own ears, Ye Ping was overjoyed. At the same time, his heart that had been tense for a long time finally relaxed. “Lian Sheng told us before but we are still worried and want to confirm again, I also ask Mr. Zhan to forgive our offense.”
Zhan Yucheng nodded indifferently: “Of course, I also hope that you can look after your own people. I just want to live a peaceful life.”
Ye Ping’s heart froze.
Before negotiating, there are indeed different voices in the Exorcist Association. Those people think that vampires are all jackals of the same tribe1They are all just as bad as each other.. As the king of the vampires, Zhan Yucheng must have greater ambitions, so they definitely can’t let him go. He will definitely want to lead the vampires to provoke war. That group of people said that as they were filled with justice and indignation. They also said that the Zhan should be monitored, it’s better to arrest all the Zhan. Since Zhan Yucheng has been lurking in the Zhan for many years they can use this to capture Zhan Yucheng.
Ye Ping did not agree with them. Although Lian Sheng does not give much information, Ye Ping felt that Zhan Yucheng was different from what those people said. He trusts his intuition, so he has been wrangling in the association for some time. In the end, he persuaded the people in the association to let him talk to him first rather than immediately become violent.
What is the power of a vampire’s prince like? All of them have seen it. As a vampire royal family, Zhan Yucheng’s power can only be higher. The country and the Exorcist Association were afraid that their rash actions might offend Zhan Yucheng and cause bad consequences. This gave Ye Ping a chance.
Ye Ping was a little guilty when Zhan Yucheng looked at him. Indeed, some people in their association intend to harm Bai Chen, Zhan Cheng, and Rong Shiyi. However, Ye Ping knew that he must not lie now.
He calmed down and said firmly: “Mr. Zhan, don’t worry, the things you don’t want to see, Ye will not let them happen.”
When he went back, Ye Ping secretly decided to take good care of those who previously were in opposition. They must never be allowed to do things that will anger Zhan Yucheng. Otherwise, he’s afraid that the balance between the humans and vampires will really be tilted.
The next day, the Zhan welcomed another special guest.
After Lance was seriously injured by Zhan Yucheng, he never dared to act rashly again. Even if he wanted Zhan Yucheng to return to the vampires to lead them to a higher level, he would just use roundabout tactics. He hopes to change Zhan Yucheng’s mind through Bai Chen. However, Bai Chen, an ordinary human, who he had never held in his eyes, saw through their purpose at a glance.
Lance did not dare to offend Zhan Yucheng again so he had to ask Fu Deying to follow Bai Chen at school from a distance and protect Bai Chen’s safety. He hoped that such an approach would win Zhan Yucheng’s goodwill, who would have thought that he was going to play the feelings card in a slow stream but the Exorcist Association went directly to the door.
There are only two things those people want to do, Lance knew it without thinking. In the end, he was afraid that Zhan Yucheng would make a choice that is not conducive to the vampires because of Bai Chen’s existence. After Lance thought about it, he still felt uneasy so he went to the door the next day.
“King, now the vampires are not as prosperous as before. I also ask your majesty to preside over matters and lead the vampires back to its former glory.” Lance got down on one knee, holding his hand on his chest, his expression respectful: “Those human beings are eloquent and scheming, no one can believe what they said. Your majesty can’t trust what those humans had said, only the vampires will not betray the king, only the vampires will always be loyal to the king.”
“Your majesty, please.”
Bai Chen was playing games on the sofa beside him. It’s as if he didn’t hear Lance saying anything bad about humans, his hand playing games has not slowed down one bit. He still played the game very carefreely and also completely ignored Lance.
Lance also didn’t care about Bai Chen’s presence. In his eyes, Bai Chen is a pet that Zhan Yucheng loves very much. Even if he is not like them now, based on how much Zhan Yucheng cares about Bai Chen, he will become their kind in the future. Therefore, in his view, Bai Chen also belongs to the vampires.
“What does that have to do with me?” Zhan Yucheng spit out the same ruthless words at that time in the haunted house, “I have long since left the royal family, regardless of the vampires. I don’t care about the fight between the two races.”
“King…” Lance was rejected once again but he was not reconciled. Obviously, the hope of reviving the vampires is at home, however, the commander, who is also a vampire, has given up his clansmen, who were struggling selflessly.
“Why!” Lance asked angrily, “You are the kind of the vampires, it is your responsibility to revive the vampires, why did you give up your responsibility!”
He gritted his teeth.
Bai Chen raised his head from the game, unhappy.
“No why.” Zhan Yucheng felt that his patience had been controlled well. If it was in the past, he probably wouldn’t say any superfluous words back. “I didn’t care about it before, I won’t care about it now. You can go back.”
“King…”
“Before I get angry.” Zhan Yucheng said coldly.
Lance left after all.
Bai Chen got up from the sofa and nestled into Zhan Yucheng’s arms: “Annoying!”
He wrinkled his nose and looked at Zhan Yucheng.
Zhan Yucheng stroked Bai Chen’s hair, he smiled lightly: “Don’t like then they will be gone from now on.”
Bai Chen shook his head: “Big brother, you really don’t care about them?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Bai Chen looked at Zhan Yucheng and said nothing.
Zhan Yucheng sighed, “Humans multiply rapidly. Although vampires can convert human beings into their own kind, it still requires some conditions. If a war begins, with me here, the vampires can temporarily beat humans, but then if they wait for a while, humanity will come back to life again. At that time, the vampires that have fought with humans and suffered heavy casualties will not be those human opponents at all. At that time, the vampires will only accelerate their time of demise. The peace that was maintained now is the best choice for the vampires.”
“This world is a world that belongs to humans.”
Zhan Yucheng said.
Although he doesn’t want to admit it, he has long known that this world favored humans.
He looked at his baby in his arms and showed a smile.
