Chapter 217
For the Viper Group, what they wanted were emotionless killing machines, where strength was everything.
So they had no need to inject the improved gene modification drug into their test subjects.
For this temporarily captured vampire cub, there was naturally no need either.
This poor, pitiful vampire cub was none other than Chloe.
So she really had been injected with the gene modification drug, would she...
"She won't."
This thought was interrupted by Xavier as soon as it surfaced.
Chloe looked up in bewilderment, gazing at him with her dark red eyes.
As if to say, how can you be so sure?
"She indeed won't," the doctor abruptly interjected. "The dose of gene modification drug injected into the young miss's body wasn't much, and moreover, purebred vampires have a stronger drug resistance than any other race or ordinary vampires."
"Plus, the young miss is exceptionally gifted," the doctor added with a slight smile. "Overall, the young miss's body is not in any immediate danger, so you can rest assured."
Is that so?
Chloe observed the doctor's expression for a moment, then Xavier's, and found that there was indeed no tension on their faces.
Only then did she feel relieved, slowly pushing the handkerchief out of her mouth: "I really don't have any problems?"
Xavier quickly caught the handkerchief and placed it on the nearby table, then nodded: "That's right."
Really?
Chloe lowered her eyes, feeling somewhat surreal.
Was this matter really over just like that? Why did those people only inject her with such a small amount of gene modification drug? It couldn't be because they had a secret crush on her, right?
Chloe wiggled her fingers, gesturing for the two present to help her remove the restraints.
As soon as she was free, Chloe went up and gave Xavier a gentle bite, then strode away.
The door closed, and Xavier raised his arm, looking at the faint, incomplete tooth mark on it, unable to help but reveal a subtle smile.
After a long while, the doctor spoke up, recapturing Xavier's attention:
"Ancestor, remember to have the young miss take this medicine regularly."
"Her condition..."
-
"So your body isn't actually in any serious danger?" Daniel asked.
"That's right," Chloe said, "I can still send ten of you flying with one slap."
Daniel thought carefully and felt that this strange strength was indeed very impressive, and couldn't help but marvel:
"That's good then, I thought it was going to be something really serious."
Mainly because when they were in Puze County, Chloe's appearance when she was trapped in the nightmare was too frightening.
And when she came out to find them, her face was deathly pale.
Chloe and Daniel high-fived to celebrate her healthy body.
Meanwhile, Qin Huaibei and Katherine exchanged a glance, both with concern in their eyes.
"Chloe," Qin Huaibei called out.
Hearing his voice, Chloe turned around: "What's wrong?"
Qin Huaibei: "Are you really sure your body is alright?"
"Yes, it is," Chloe said with certainty.
Hearing this answer, Qin Huaibei could only temporarily set aside his doubts.
He felt that something that required a doctor of this caliber to examine for four or five hours in a room... couldn't be such a simple illness.
Of course, it could also be that Xavier was just being overly protective of his beloved daughter.
It's better not to overthink it.
Evidently, Katherine thought the same, and they exchanged another glance before walking over to Chloe:
"What shall we eat later?"
As it turned out, whenever these few were together, there was never a moment of peace.
The servants of the Ancestors' Manor watched helplessly as their precious young miss set up an iron pot in the courtyard, added firewood underneath, and lit a fire, clearly intending to cook herself.
So, the servants watched as their young miss, whom they had cherished since childhood, bent her entire head almost to the ground, covered in soot and dirt, cooking instant noodles.
Yes, instant noodles.
Daniel was adding seasoning to the water while asking, "Is the fire going yet?"
"You're so slow."
Chloe: "Almost!"
Qin Huaibei was holding several packets of instant noodles, waiting to put them into the pot.
Everyone had a serious, ready-for-battle expression.
The servants: "..."
Should they go help?
Just as they were hesitating whether to step forward, Chloe raised her head, and with a face full of soot, waved at them:
"You can go play by yourselves, I can handle this on my own."
After saying this, she went back to tending the fire.
However, after hearing these words, the servants didn't feel relieved at all, but became even more worried.
Their young miss was so beautiful and delicate, what if she got hurt?
The iron pot was so big and heavy, with so much boiling water inside, what if it scalded the young miss...
Everyone shuddered, not daring to think further.
At the same time, they were unwilling to leave, so they stood not far from the cubs, watching their young miss with worried and loving eyes.
This gaze was so loving it was over the top, giving Qin Huaibei goosebumps. He secretly nudged Chloe's shoulder and asked in a low voice:
"Were they always like this before?"
Hearing this, Chloe raised her head: "Like what?"
Qin Huaibei thought for a moment and said, "This way of wanting to meld you into their bones, following your every step."
Hearing this, Chloe finally understood what he meant, and waved her hand:
"You'll get used to it, they're all very nice people."
Hearing this, Qin Huaibei's expression became a bit strange: "Is that so..."
Isn't this excessive care? He originally thought it was just Xavier who doted on Chloe, but who knew it wasn't just Xavier, but also Kewen, Anderson, and everyone in the entire vampire manor!
This is too exaggerated! What kind of script for being the darling of the group did Chloe get?
Daniel complained bitterly: "This makes me, who's been left to fend for myself since childhood, look quite dumb."
"It's okay," Chloe said, "now we're here to dote on you."
Hearing this, Daniel expressed doubt: "Have you guys ever doted on me? I feel like I'm the one you all love to bully the most?"
"That's not true," Chloe said earnestly. "We bully you because we like you, you just don't understand."
Daniel thought carefully and felt that this seemed to make sense, so he said happily:
"Now I understand."
After saying this, he shouted: "The water's boiling! The water's boiling!"
Qin Huaibei hurriedly tossed the noodle cakes in his hands into the pot.
Over a dozen packets of instant noodles went in, quickly softening in the water. With the addition of the seasoning packets, the aroma became absolutely tantalizing.
Chloe couldn't help but feel her mouth water, and she licked her lips.
After a few minutes, Katherine began adding sausages, pork, cilantro, mushrooms, and other ingredients to the pot.
The fragrance grew even more intense.
Another ten minutes or so passed, and with Katherine's announcement of "It's ready!", everyone immediately crowded around, each helping themselves to heaping portions of the noodles.
Just as Chloe was about to take a bite, a shadow suddenly fell across her.
The next moment, a few pieces of green vegetables descended from above, landing in her bowl.
Chloe: "..."
Xavier's voice was calm:
"For vitamins."
