CHAPTER 6 (2/2)
There was nowhere to hide in the narrow carriage and Xie Xi also didn’t want to hide.
He took the time to ask. “Why do you want to kill me?”
“Why?” The resentment in the coachman’s eyes reached the peak. “You are sinister and evil. Who in the empire doesn’t want to kill you?”
“I…” Xie Xi couldn’t finish the sentence as the coachman’s dagger pierced his heart.
“Hahaha, it serves you right.” The coachman was crazy. “I want to see if your heart is black, devil who climbed up from hell…”
His voice drifted off and Xie Xi read the file in time.
There were no extra options and he could only choose to go back to last night.
Then… he couldn’t let Randy die? He could get some information from the coachman’s words. This body wasn’t a simple aristocratic son. He had too many enemies and the housekeeper Randy wasn’t simple. It was only when Randy was alive that he could avoid being assassinated by others.
Was it possible for incite Randy and the vampire to fight?
It seemed that his original plan was right but he had to choose his words more carefully. He couldn’t let the housekeeper commit suicide!
He just made up his mind when the silver-haired vampire appeared out of thin air. This was the third time and Xie Xi was used to this sneaky ghost.
The vampire’s lines were almost the same as last time but the confession was more unhinged. “Small Sein, I really want to dig out my heart for you, letting you see how much it loves you.”
Xie Xi was afraid his words really would make the vampire dig out his heart and spoke carefully. “Don’t say that.”
The vampire’s beautiful red eyes were full of infatuation. “See you tomorrow. My sweetest baby.”
Xie Xi, “…” He heard it so many times that it didn’t seem so disgusting anymore.
The vampire went away and he dealt with Randy. Then Xie Xi finally arrived at the crucial second day.
This time, he didn’t muddy up the water or act unclear. He directly asked, “Randy, no matter what happens, will you be loyal to me?”
Sure enough, this was the correct way to speak. The housekeeper knelt down on one knee and spoke in a pious manner. “It is my life’s wish to share Young Master’s worries.”
Xie Xi looked at him in a condescending manner. “Do you know the identity of Earl Aix-en?”
The housekeeper’s head was lowered but he clearly stiffened up. Then he sighed. “The earl has long died. He is a vampire who only exists in the darkness.”
Xie Xi thought, ‘You’ve know it for a long time!’
“Then do you know what day it is today?” Xie Xi stared at him.
Randy looked up, a black mist in his blue eyes. “Have you made up your mind?”
“I don’t want to be something that isn’t a ghost.” Xie Xi raised a hand to Randy’s left shoulder and watched him. “Can you help me?”
Clear flames burned in the housekeeper’s eyes as his thin lips trembled. “Young Master…”
“He is powerful and I made a deal with him to protect the house. Now he is pushing and I…” Xie Xi wasn’t proficient at acting yet and couldn’t say the rest of the words.
Fortunately, this route was right. Randy held his hand and whispered to him, “You don’t love him, do you?”
Xie Xi finally spoke the truth in his heart. “I don’t love him.”
The housekeeper closed his eyes, looking like someone resurrected from the dead. He kissed the back of Xie Xi’s hand in a pious manner. “As long as you are clear about your mind, leave it to me.”
Xie Xi was anxious. “He isn’t human and he is powerful. You…”
“Don’t worry about me.” The housekeeper stared at him, eyes full of unreserved loyalty and love. “Wait for me to come back.”
Xie Xi’s concern wasn’t false. The reason might be different but he said sincerely, “Take care.” He hoped the two of them could fight for six days and six nights to help him complete the task.
Before Randy departed, he instructed Xie Xi, “…Please don’t leave the mansion.”
Xie Xi thought of the coachman who assassinated him and nodded solemnly. “I won’t go anywhere until you come back.”
Randy’s eyes were bright and gentle. “I will live up to your expectations.”
He sent away the housekeeper and Xie Xi was nervous all morning and afternoon. It wasn’t until it was almost evening that he was relieved.
It seemed this was the right way. He had to encourage the housekeeper to deal with the vampire.
The outcome wasn’t known but the silver-haired vampire hadn’t rushed over angrily.
Randy wasn’t here so the person who changed his clothing was the maid Gars.
Xie Xi didn’t think too much when he saw this game again. Only one day had passed in this world but many days had passed for him. He had finally cleared a stage and he was slightly relaxed.
Gars carefully helped him take off his clothes. As his shirt was being untied, she suddenly whispered, “Young Master, can’t it be me?”
Xie Xi didn’t hear her clearly. “Hrmm?”
The girl, who was half a head taller than him, stared him in the eyes. “The things that Randy can do, I can also do it. The things that Aix-en can give you, I can as well.”
Xie Xi’s eyes narrowed as he understood and looked up at Gars.
Gars’ cool voice became hoarse and she no longer pretended to be delicate as she was filled with a youthful anger. “Randy can’t come back. Look at me more, okay?”
At this moment, Xie Xi saw the throat of the ‘maid’ which had been obscured by lace.
Gars raised Xie Xi’s hand and pressed it against Gars’ flat chest, which didn’t have the ups and downs of a female.
“Can you feel it?” The boy’s low-pitched voice was full of affection. “This heart belongs only to you.”
