Chapter 2318: Chapter 2318: Silver Moon Ritual Song (17)

Yin Bai gazed intently at the shadows of trees flying past the window.

Yin Bai suddenly leaned against the window: "It’s raining."

Raindrops danced on the window, blurring the view.

Yin Bai rolled down the car window and extended his hand.

The wind slipped through his fingers, carrying moist droplets, inexplicably soothing.

In just a moment, water droplets condensed on Yin Bai’s fingers, dripping from his fingertips.

"Don’t you like the rain?" Yin Bai suddenly turned to ask Chuzheng.

"It’s alright."

"I didn’t like it before, but recently I’ve started liking it more and more. Rainy days feel more comfortable." Yin Bai whispered, "I thought you all liked the rain."

"If you like it, then I like it."

"...Why? Everyone has different preferences. You can like what you like. Why do you like it just because I do?"

"Because..." Chuzheng paused, leaned closer to his ear, and whispered softly, "I like you."

Yin Bai was taken aback.

He slowly withdrew his hand, and Chuzheng closed the window, took out a tissue, and carefully wiped the water off his fingers.

Yin Bai let Chuzheng wipe his fingers dry one by one.

Chuzheng held his hand and lightly kissed his lips.

Yin Bai’s ears turned bright red in an instant, and he withdrew his hand.

Perhaps because Xuan Xiaozhu was present, Yin Bai didn’t say much, and lowered his head, starting to flip through his book.

But because his mind was unsettled, the pace at which he flipped through the pages was far from browsing speed.

Xuan Xiaozhu watched for a while, then boldly waved her phone, "Cutie, add me on WeChat?"

She actually wanted to add Chuzheng.

But...

She wasn’t sure if the Blood Clan had WeChat accounts.

Besides, she was a bit scared of Chuzheng and didn’t dare ask.

So she decided to take a roundabout approach.

By adding the big shot’s pampered "Canary," it would be the same as adding the big shot, right!

"Oh... okay." Yin Bai took out his phone, opened WeChat, just about to hand over the QR code.

A ’ding’ sound echoed beside him.

Yin Bai looked up to see Xuan Xiaozhu staring at her phone in horror, as if holding a bomb instead of a phone.

"From now on, don’t add random people."

Xuan ’Random’ Xiaozhu felt like an arrow was piercing her heart, almost accidentally deleting the big shot she just added.

Was she even being talked about as a person?

Why was she suddenly ’random’?!

Yin Bai hesitated, "You also added..."

"Can you compare to me?"

"..."

Yin Bai’s ears were still red, not daring to speak much to Chuzheng, silently handing over his phone: "Here, take a look?"

Chuzheng: "..."

Yin Bai’s phone contents were quite clean, mostly study-related apps.

The WeChat contacts were numerous, mostly noted as XX Department XXX, or a certain teacher, or XX store.

Chuzheng didn’t touch the people in his WeChat and installed a few Blood Clan internal apps for him, activating them before handing it back, "Don’t add unnecessary contacts from now on."

The young man whispered, "But it’s impolite, and rejecting people is not good..."

Chuzheng: "..."

Alright, whatever suits him.

After all, she can watch over the person.

"As long as you’re happy."

Yin Bai didn’t say anything more, his head down fiddling with the phone. After a while, he even borrowed Chuzheng’s phone.

Chuzheng handed him the phone, "What are you doing?"

Yin Bai didn’t answer, slightly turned his body, blocking Chuzheng’s view.

A moment later, he returned the phone to Chuzheng, "I... I made a new account, only to add you."

Chuzheng: "..." Not necessary, really, she’s not that controlling, after all, she has him in hand, who could do anything?

Chuzheng opened the message list. The first was a cute rabbit avatar, adorably innocent.

This little thing was so obedient.

Wanting...

Alright, what was the point in thinking, soon it would be 404.

-

Upon arriving in the city, Xuan Xiaozhu was thrown out of the car by Chuzheng, casually tossed a card, professing it as a reward.

Xuan Xiaozhu knew the Blood Clan had money, but to start casually at a million, wasn’t it too much wealth to make one jealous?

Compared to the Blood Clan, the Blood Hunter and Blood Clan were like comparing a wealthy district’s top-tier mansion to a top-tier poverty district.

Chuzheng dropped Yin Bai off at home and returned to her residence.

Then she heard from people below that Gui Lan had sneaked back.

The Werewolves and Blood Hunters were in a heated battle, and with Gui Lan suddenly returning, both sides thought the Blood Clan was reneging and trying to interfere, naturally not going easy.

In the end, one Blood Clan member died, and several others were injured.

Those Blood Clan members were summoned by Luo Li to rescue Gui Lan, mostly notable, well-positioned underage cubs.

Now, injured to that extent, would their families not back them?

Not long after receiving this news, Chuzheng was urgently summoned by the local lord.

With such a major incident, she as a participant would certainly be called for questioning.

-

The quaint manor nestled in the mountains, not many servants inside, led by a gauntly faced elder.

When the original owner first came here, they met the lord for registration, hence they recognized this elder.

"Miss Chuzheng, please enter." The elder pushed open the three-meter-high carved door for Chuzheng, bowing with a gesture of invitation.

The room already had people inside.

Luo Li and several Blood Clan members stood aside, Gui Lan in the center, face pale, body swaying, appearing about to collapse anytime.

Behind the desk sat a middle-aged man, his features still handsome, exuding the steadiness and wisdom of a mature male.

"Lord."

Chuzheng called respectfully.

The lord nodded in acknowledgment: "You likely have heard of the incident. Summoning you is to clarify the specifics."

The lord governs this territory, and after such an event, he needs to understand the entire process.

Not just hearing it from one person, each must report their account.

"...I left afterward, unaware of what transpired." Chuzheng briefly outlined the previous events, directly dissociating herself from later occurrences.

After all, she indeed did not participate.

Luo Li and others could testify.

"I have a question." Though Luo Li testified for Chuzheng, confirming she hadn’t joined later, he still had other doubts.

The lord gestured for Luo Li to ask.

"How did you hit Ji Yi using a Blood Hunter’s weapon?"

The Blood Clan cannot touch silver, yet the weapon against Ji Yi specifically targets them.

Chuzheng glanced at Luo Li, then towards Gui Lan, who hung her head, her body trembling slightly.

Luo Li continued, "Are you colluding with the Blood Hunter?"

Chuzheng withdrew her gaze, maintaining composure, "Mr. Luo Li, you must provide evidence when speaking."

Collusion with the Blood Hunter by the Blood Clan is considered treason, regardless of the reason.

Luo Li: "I went to check your previous location; clearly there were traces of two people. Who was the other person?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"That person was a Blood Hunter, you certainly won’t dare say."
