Quick Transmigration: The Villainous Female Supporting Character Became the Male Lead's Beloved

Chapter 188 The Poor Vampire is the Real Boss 11

A few days later, Ni Qing told Yavi that she accepted his conditions and would help him monitor Brewster, but she would not choose to seduce him.

Yavi readily accepted.

In the original storyline, it was very close to the moment when the male lead turned the tables. She was casually looking down when she suddenly noticed a very subtle gaze on her.

The girl looked up and met the other person's expressionless eyes. For some reason, whenever she saw this face that resembled the judge's, she felt inexplicably uneasy.

Ni Qing raised an eyebrow: "What?"

Brewster curled his lips into a smile, concealing the meaningful emotion in his eyes, and slowly said, "It's just... I suddenly realized you're quite good-looking?"

Ni Qing: "..." Are you blind? I've been so beautiful all this time and you only just realized? Moreover, there was a strange undertone to her words, and it was hard to tell whether she was being sincere or sarcastic.

The girl paused for a moment, then quickly recovered and smiled, saying, "Your Highness is very handsome too. Appearances are just skin and bones; power is what truly matters."

He gave a light scoff: "Indeed."

Perhaps because Brewster's appearance had changed, the half-vampires who used to bully him had become much more restrained, though not entirely.

As is customary, Incole glanced at Brewster before casually assigning tasks. Ni Qing stood beside Amin with her eyes lowered, while the boy stood on her other side.

While she was being serious, her palm, which was hanging by her side, was suddenly lightly touched. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she looked over in confusion. The other person did not look at her, as if the person who wanted to hold her hand was not him.

Brewster's recent behavior has been very strange, and his overly proactive attitude is making her feel uncomfortable. She awkwardly tugged at his hand, trying to pull it away.

The boy curled his lips into a smile, his gaze indifferent, but the pressure on his hand only increased. Ni Qing only gave up struggling when Inker frowned and looked over.

Ni Qing was arranged to stay in another place first, and the young man reluctantly let go of her hand.

After Ni Qing left, Incole looked at Brewster with an ambiguous expression: "My dear little prince, you don't need to work today. There will be an annual night hunt later, and I hope you will participate voluntarily. Do you understand what I mean?"

The prey of vampires during their night hunts are humans. Although humans and vampires have historically kept to themselves, humans are at a disadvantage in terms of ability and are often easily ambushed by vampires, with humans having no power to retaliate.

The apparent peace has long been crumbling.

But they wouldn't just sit idly by. They had guns, which, while somewhat ineffective against the agile and sharp-eyed vampires, were still enough to kill quite a few.

Night hunts are generally attended voluntarily, with half-vampires given priority. Whoever catches the most prey has the opportunity to be promoted. Incole became Avi's right-hand man in this way back then.

There is no income without risk.

But this was dangerous for the inexperienced Brewster; a moment's inattention could cost him his life. That was probably Avi's mindset—to get rid of him.

Even if they don't kill him, it'll keep him quiet for a while, at least he won't attract so much attention anymore.

Incole's plan was to resort to violence if the other party disagreed. He was reluctant; he disliked such a brutal approach.

As he was thinking this, he heard Brewster look down at him with lowered eyes and a somewhat condescending air: "Okay." The casualness of his reply was hard to tell whether it was ignorance or arrogance.

Incole scoffed and turned to leave. The other half-vampires had varying expressions, and just as Brewster was about to leave as well, a group of men blocked his way.

"Brewster, we don't want to work. You're free anyway, so finish our share before you leave," the leader said arrogantly.

This man was a notorious troublemaker among the half-vampires. He often bullied the weak when Brewster was young, and such things were commonplace for him.

He looked down at him with his somewhat cloudy, bloodshot eyes.

Brewster seemed not to hear him, and without pausing, walked straight toward the door.

"Hey~ When did you go deaf when we were talking to you?" The obsequious half-vampire behind him had a ferocious expression and stepped forward to grab him. The boy, with his back to them, had an indifferent expression, slightly turned his head, and idly touched the curved knife on his sleeve.

A calloused hand was about to touch him. Brewster's expression darkened, and just as he was about to do something, a somewhat indifferent voice suddenly came from the other side: "What are you doing?"

The girl stood not far away, her blood-red eyes, unlike their usual gentle gaze, now displaying a coldness characteristic of her race. She tilted her head and repeated, "You want the young prince to do your work?"

The leading half-vampire man looked up, his expression unchanged, but a sense of unease crept into his heart. He didn't care much for a mere girl, but judging from the past few days, Prince Avi seemed to have a very special relationship with her.

If it really was as he suspected, he couldn't afford to offend her. Besides, Incole had been intentionally or unintentionally making her do things like slacking off, which made things even more unpredictable.

After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "How could that be? I just wanted to have a good chat with him, but he didn't hear me, so I thought I'd stop him."

Ni Qing raised an eyebrow: "So, are you done talking?"

The man's face darkened; he disapproved of her arrogant demeanor, but he forced a smile: "Since he doesn't want to talk, we won't force him. Let's go!"

The last three words carried a hint of gritted teeth.

After they left, Ni Qing realized that a burning gaze had been fixed on her ever since she appeared.

"Is the butler planning to give you a day off?" She smiled brightly, her lips curving upwards. Her eyes, which had just seemed somewhat indifferent, now curved like crescent moons.

Brewster glanced at her and said, "He asked me to participate in the night hunt, and I agreed."

Amin had mentioned this night hunt to Ni Qing before; it was extremely brutal. Most of the half-vampires didn't die at the hands of humans, but rather from their own kind who were competing with each other.

But she simply smiled and replied, "Is that so? Then Your Highness must be careful; I've heard this is very dangerous." Her expression was somewhat indifferent and perfunctory.

Bruce stared at her intently for a long time before saying, "Do you only feel pity for me?" His words seemed abrupt, and Ni Qing didn't react for a moment.

This appearance, in his eyes, was an admission of this fact.

He pursed his lips, his silver hair obscuring the gloomy look in his eyes. It didn't matter; he wouldn't place his hopes on a mere blood servant.

Only the weak are filled with hope.

Thinking of this, his sharp teeth tingled with itch. He glanced at the girl's exposed, slender, fair neck, where the mark had disappeared.
