She Won’t Let Tragedy Repeat Itself
1635 Words
Su Qian's words instantly made Cheng Nuo's face darken; it seemed he really disliked this talkative Su Qian!
Jingjing didn’t say anything, but she kept frowning at Cheng Nuo. She found something strange—Cheng Nuo didn’t seem like the same person he was before. When he left earlier, he was still worried, but why was he now smiling so happily?
"Xiao Qian!" Su Yixia frowned and gave Su Qian a look, trying to stop him from speaking.
But Su Qian continued, "Sister, you know that mom and I don’t like Cheng Nuo. We both prefer Brother Ye Xi!"
"Ye Xi?" Cheng Nuo’s lips curled into a faint, unnoticeable smile. "Who knows? Maybe none of you will see him again?"
"Cheng Nuo, are you cursing Brother Ye Xi?" Su Qian seemed furious at Cheng Nuo's words and immediately asked him to leave, "Get out! You're not welcome here!"
"Xiao Qian!" Although Su Yixia also felt that Cheng Nuo was acting strangely, she was still upset with Su Qian’s rude behavior. "Apologize to Brother Cheng Nuo right now!"
"Cheng Nuo?" The more Jingjing looked at him, the more she felt that he wasn’t really Cheng Nuo. His hairstyle seemed slightly different, and he looked a bit taller. Who was this person in front of them?
"Hmm?" Cheng Nuo turned his head.
"Do you remember what happened before?" Jingjing asked cautiously.
Su Yixia didn’t understand why Jingjing was asking such odd questions.
"I hate you, sister!" At that moment, Su Qian suddenly shouted at Su Yixia before angrily glaring at Cheng Nuo and running to his room. "I’ll never apologize to him!"
"Cheng Nuo, Xiao Qian is still young, I hope you don’t mind." Su Yixia felt deeply apologetic for Su Qian's behavior, so she decided to apologize herself.
"It’s nothing!" Cheng Nuo shrugged indifferently. "Yixia, don’t worry, I won’t hold it against him."
"Cheng Nuo, why do I feel like you aren’t Cheng Nuo? Are you really him?" Finally, Jingjing stepped forward and voiced her doubts.
Su Yixia was bewildered by Jingjing’s question. Why would she ask something like that? How could Cheng Nuo not be Cheng Nuo?
"What’s different?" Cheng Nuo’s lips curved slightly, his eyes growing darker. Suddenly, his face turned grim. "Sorry, I just remembered I have something to take care of. I need to leave."
Before leaving, he still kissed Su Yixia on the forehead. "Yixia, I’ll come find you in a couple of days."
...
Meanwhile, in Su Qian’s bedroom, a completely different scene was unfolding.
Since Ye Xi had previously isolated this room, no sound from outside could be heard inside, and likewise, no one outside would notice anything happening inside.
"You, who are you?" After Su Qian entered the room and closed the door, he suddenly noticed a handsome figure standing by his bed. From behind, he looked somewhat like Brother Ye Xi.
"Brother Ye Xi, is that you?" Thinking this, Su Qian excitedly ran over.
"I’m not your Brother Ye Xi!" However, when the person turned around, Su Qian froze mid-step, and the smile on his face faded.
It wasn’t Brother Ye Xi, but a similarly handsome man with blue eyes, though his complexion was frighteningly pale.
"Why are you in my room?" Su Qian backed away in fear, trying to retreat to the door.
But Jesse noticed Su Qian’s movements and swiftly blocked his way, moving with lightning speed.
Seeing how fast the man moved, Su Qian was truly frightened. "What are you?!"
"Don’t be afraid!" Jesse grinned. "I’m your sister’s boyfriend. My name is Jesse."
"No, my sister’s boyfriend is Brother Ye Xi!" Su Qian angrily corrected him. "No one can replace Brother Ye Xi!"
Upon hearing Su Qian mention Brother Ye Xi again, Jesse’s mischievous expression turned to one of displeasure. "Brother Ye Xi? Do you really like him that much? Do you even know who he truly is?"
"What do you mean?" Su Qian took a deep breath, trying to summon the courage to ask.
"He’s a vampire!" Jesse declared.
As soon as Jesse spoke, Su Qian shivered all over but refused to believe him. "You’re lying! Brother Ye Xi could never be a vampire! Vampires don’t even exist!"
"You don’t believe in vampires?" Jesse raised an eyebrow and grinned evilly. His facial expression changed rapidly—his once deep blue eyes turned blood-red, and two sharp fangs suddenly appeared.
"You...you’re a monster!" Su Qian screamed. "Sister, there’s a monster here!"
"Little one, stop shouting!" Jesse calmly returned to his human form. "I came here today just to tell you that you were declared dead at the hospital last time. It was Ye Xi who gave you his blood to save you!"
"No, that’s impossible!" Su Qian was terrified and backed away, shaking his head. "I don’t believe that Brother Ye Xi is a vampire! He’s not some horrible monster!"
"You don’t believe me?" Jesse smiled wickedly and stepped closer to Su Qian, baring his fangs again. "Su Qian, soon enough, you will believe."
With that, Jesse bit down hard on Su Qian's neck, and within a minute, he had drained Su Qian of all his blood!
Afterwards, Jesse let go of Su Qian and quickly bit into his own wrist, feeding Su Qian large amounts of his own blood. "Su Qian, I’m sorry, but to keep your sister with me forever, I have to sacrifice you. But don’t worry, once you turn into a vampire, you’ll thank me!"
...
In a villa in City B.
Ye Xi sat restlessly on the sofa, while the beautiful Adeline was taking a leisurely bath in the bathroom.
It had been a long time since she had scrubbed herself so clean. Tonight was going to be the most beautiful night between her and her prince!
After finishing her bath, Adeline wrapped herself in a towel and came out of the bathroom. A faint fragrance wafted from her as she walked over to Ye Xi, looking at him suggestively. "Your Highness, why don’t you go take a bath now?"
"Mm." Ye Xi responded flatly and headed toward the bathroom.
Adeline, filled with excitement, watched Ye Xi walk into the bathroom. She hurried to the bedroom, undid the towel, and revealed her fair body as she lay on the bed, waiting for Ye Xi.
However, she waited for a long time, but Ye Xi still hadn’t come. Her brow furrowed slightly.
Could it be that An Yexis was taking that long in the shower?
Adeline wrapped herself in the towel again and left the bedroom, only to find that Ye Xi, freshly bathed, was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
"Ye Xi, why aren’t you coming to bed?" Adeline pouted as she walked up behind Ye Xi, wrapping her arms around his neck and speaking in a displeased tone.
"Adeline, you sleep inside. I’ll sleep on the couch," Ye Xi said expressionlessly.
"Ye Xi, we’re about to be married, why can’t we sleep together?" Adeline was clearly upset by his response and decided to be more assertive. "Ye Xi, let’s sleep together, okay?"
"I don’t want to sleep." Actually, vampires didn’t need to sleep, especially at night when their brains remained fully alert.
But what Adeline really wanted wasn’t sleep; she intended to take their relationship to the next level.
After waiting for so many years and never receiving Ye Xi’s love, now that he had forgotten Elisa and she had a chance to offer herself, she wasn’t going to let it slip by so easily.
Determined, Adeline sat next to Ye Xi on the sofa, deliberately revealing more of herself as she gently stroked his thigh. "An Yexis, we’re already as good as married. No matter what you want to do with me, I won’t mind."
Ye Xi frowned, looking into her expectant eyes, and suddenly recalled a pair of familiar eyes from his hazy memory.
Unconsciously, he grabbed Adeline’s waist and leaned in to kiss her lips.
Adeline, surprised by Ye Xi’s boldness, hugged him tightly, responding passionately, trying to seduce him further.
Just as things were about to escalate, a soft voice echoed in Ye Xi’s mind, "An Yexis, you promised me you would love no other woman but me. You promised that in this lifetime, you wouldn’t touch anyone but me!"
Suddenly, Ye Xi's eyes widened, and he forcefully pushed Adelene away.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Adelene asked in confusion, "Was I not gentle enough?"
"Enough!" Ye Xi coldly replied, "Until we are officially married, I will not touch you."
"Why?" Adelene, unwilling to give up, frowned at Ye Xi. "But I don't mind. Your Highness, why won't you accept me? Is my figure not good enough? Am I not beautiful enough?"
"I'm sorry," Ye Xi did not answer her questions. Instead, he stood up, walked to the window, and frowned as he gazed at the scenery outside.
His heart seemed to be constantly preoccupied with something, but why couldn't he remember what it was?
Why, despite the fact that the person before him was his fiancée, couldn't he fully accept her in his heart?
Adelene knew that the reason Ye Xi wouldn’t touch her was all because of Elisa. She thought that erasing Ye Xi’s memories of Elisa would be enough, but she never expected that after Elisa's reincarnation, she and Ye Xi would meet again.
Even though she hadn't transferred Ye Xi's memories of Elisa back to him, it seemed his heart was slowly drifting towards her. If this continued, Ye Xi might fall in love with another version of Elisa all over again!
No!
She would never allow the tragedy from a hundred years ago to repeat itself!
She would never let that woman named Su Yixia steal her prince!
Never!
With this thought, a trace of malice flickered in Adelene's eyes.
