Chapter 469: Chapter 89 Mi Luo
Gu Xiaoxi, upon hearing this, extended her hand and lifted Mi Luo’s small chin. Staring at his exposed sharp, white fangs, she couldn’t help but frown. "How have you grown up without harming anyone? Weren’t you just about to bite me?"
"I, I..." The little guy’s big eyes rolled around, and he looked timid, seemingly very scared of her.
"Tell me honestly, what exactly are you?" Gu Xiaoxi glared at the little boy, even though she had some idea in her heart. But she still wanted to hear it from the boy himself.
The little boy pouted upon hearing this, and bright tears appeared in his eyes. "I’m not something, my name is Mi Luo."
Gu Xiaoxi didn’t mean to discriminate against him, yet he was so heartbroken over her thoughtless remark.
She looked at Mi Luo, not quite sure what to do for a moment.
"Don’t cry, okay! I didn’t discriminate against you." Gu Xiaoxi was at a loss for words. In the West, vampires referred to themselves as the royal family.
But if this Mi Luo was a vampire, could Mi Xi be one as well?
Slashing the wrist, could that be for drawing blood?
At this thought, Gu Xiaoxi glanced at the curtains pulled up not far away.
Vampires can’t be exposed to the sun, so why could Mi Xi go outside?
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t help but remember the time Mi Xi took her to meet a client.
She was drunk, and her wrist hurt for a moment. However, when she returned home, her wrist was as good as new, without any sign of injury.
Did Mi Xi take her blood?
Or was that just her illusion?
Thinking this, Gu Xiaoxi felt a chill run down her spine.
Just then, Mi Luo in front of her started crying even harder.
Seeing that he was just a child and posed no threat to her, Gu Xiaoxi stepped forward, took his hand, and quickly soothed him, "Okay, don’t cry. As long as you’re good and don’t cry, we can be friends."
"You’re lying, Daddy said humans are very scary, they will kill me." Mi Luo said while wiping his tears and fearfully.
"Do I look scary to you?" Gu Xiaoxi quickly made a funny face at Mi Luo.
Today’s trip was not in vain, as it led to some discoveries.
However, she could not alert the police just yet.
She needed to find more concrete evidence to prove that Mi Xi was involved in human trafficking...
In this world, there are many kinds of beings, and as a kind vampire who doesn’t harm humans, he too has the right to life.
Furthermore, Mi Luo was just an underage child.
His world was still pure.
Mi Luo kept observing Gu Xiaoxi, and after a long while, he finally stopped sobbing and with misty eyes, he asked softly, "You’re not a bad person, so what are you doing at my home?"
"I’m naturally here to find your daddy!" Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes sparkled as she bent down and looked into Mi Luo’s eyes, "Good Mi Luo, is your daddy also of the royal family, like you?"
In this world, vampires possess everlasting youth and incredibly long lifespans.
Mi Luo shook his head decisively, "The women of our own kind cannot bear offspring, only men and human women can have children."
Gu Xiaoxi stroked her chin, pondering. Mi Xi was raising a vampire son, but he wasn’t his own flesh and blood...
This seemed a bit odd.
"Does your daddy often bring home blood for you to drink?" Gu Xiaoxi asked further.
Upon hearing this, Mi Luo’s face instantly turned pale.
He looked at Gu Xiaoxi, a bit afraid to answer.
From his expression, Gu Xiaoxi could tell she was right.
At this moment, Mi Luo’s disappointment weighed heavily as he lowered his head, pouting, looking like he wanted to cry again. "If I drank blood, would you not want to be my friend anymore?"
"Don’t cry, okay! As long as you’re good, we can still be friends," Gu Xiaoxi quickly soothed. Regardless, she had to keep the little guy from spilling the beans; she couldn’t let Mi Xi know she had been there.
The only way was to capture the child’s innocence and win him over.
"I don’t believe you!" Mi Luo intertwined his hands, his head hanging even lower.
Gu Xiaoxi sighed and said, "Wouldn’t you like to go out and play? Today is overcast, and with an umbrella, I could take you out to play."
She could tell from Mi Luo’s expression that the little guy must have been confined to the house all the time, so he was curious and cherished the friendliness shown by a stranger.
With a few words, she brought down his guard.
So, winning him over for herself wouldn’t be difficult.
Sure enough, at her words, Mi Luo’s eyes gleamed with a spark of interest, yet he remained wary and did not immediately agree.
"Come on, you can wear the clothes you have on. I’ll give you an umbrella to protect you from the rain, and we can take a walk outside. Don’t worry, I’ll ensure your safety," Gu Xiaoxi hurriedly persuaded.
Ultimately, Mi Luo couldn’t resist the temptation and decided to compromise with Gu Xiaoxi.
When Gu Xiaoxi took Mi Luo out, the weather outside was overcast, because Mi Luo was not human and was most afraid of sunlight.
She had prepared an umbrella in advance; as soon as there was a bit of sunlight, she picked up the umbrella to shield him.
At the same time, Mi Luo also wore a black cloak and a mask.
Gu Xiaoxi pulled him outside, and although many people were curious when they saw Mi Luo, faced with the beautiful Gu Xiaoxi, they soon paid him no attention.
It was the first time Mi Luo had gone out during the day, aside from feeling nervous, he was very afraid.
His fingers tightly clasped Gu Xiaoxi’s hand, his body almost glued to her, fearing that Gu Xiaoxi would let go and lose him.
Gu Xiaoxi knew that for a child, nothing was more appealing than an amusement park.
She had a day off anyway; as long as she returned Mi Luo to the villa before six in the afternoon, Mi Xi would not notice anything.
At the amusement park, Mi Luo had a lot of fun.
One could say, he experienced an unprecedented joy, bravely riding the roller coaster, bumper cars, and inline skating.
He ate lollipops, cotton candy, and sugar-coated haws he had never had before.
Of course, those were not things he should eat.
Gu Xiaoxi, afraid he would get diarrhea and expose her, only let him lick them.
Mi Luo’s strange attire made many children admire him; when he fell, there were even those who went to help him up.
This made him feel a previously unknown happiness; only at this moment did Mi Luo discover that humans were not to be feared.
So, he played happily in the park with a group of children.
Gu Xiaoxi had not expected, at such a time, for her contact to appear.
She had no choice but to retreat behind a rockery.
"I heard you went to Mi Xi’s home, did you find anything?" the contact asked bluntly.
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Mi Luo not far away, hesitating for a moment before saying, "I haven’t found any evidence on Mi Xi yet, give me some time."
"The superior officer has asked you to be careful. And that little boy is so strange, who is he?" the contact had clearly noticed Mi Luo as well.
Gu Xiaoxi involuntarily frowned, understanding in a flash.
It must have been Young Master Quan who sent someone to follow her, which is how they knew she had gone to Mi Xi’s home and taken Mi Luo out.
"I don’t have any evidence at the moment, don’t act rashly. Give me a little more time," Gu Xiaoxi immediately said seriously.
The contact didn’t say much more, "Then be careful yourself, don’t get exposed."
His words had an implied meaning.
Gu Xiaoxi naturally knew he was referring to Mi Luo, the one she took from Mi Xi’s home.
At this point, she was walking on thin ice, as a single word from Mi Luo could blow her cover.
Seeing the contact leave, Gu Xiaoxi breathed a heavy sigh.
No matter what, if Mi Xi was involved in something problematic, she would not tolerate it.
But neither could she wrong an innocent person!
She looked up into the distance, and before she knew it, the sun had emerged from the clouds, leaving her feeling a pang of melancholy...
Wait... Gu Xiaoxi immediately looked up towards the horizon, the sun?
The sun had come out?
Where was Mi Luo?
Gu Xiaoxi quickly looked up towards where Mi Luo had been playing; the children who had been playing with him were still there, but Mi Luo was nowhere to be seen.
In an instant, her heart jumped to her throat in fear.
The sun had come out, where had Mi Luo gone?
If something happened to him, how would she explain to Mi Xi?
She was the one who had taken him out; if something happened, she would also feel guilty.
After all, Mi Luo had never harmed anyone, he was still a child.
Even if Mi Xi had done something unforgivable, it shouldn’t involve him.
She had taken responsibility for him and must ensure his safe return.
"Mi Luo!" Gu Xiaoxi, with her heart pounding, quickly searched behind the surrounding rockeries and in the bushes for him.
What if he encountered the sunlight and had no way to escape, what then?
Moments later, Gu Xiaoxi pushed through a dense thicket and saw Mi Luo, crouched under his cloak amongst the bushes.
At that moment, Mi Luo was crouched on the ground, shivering. On his neck and hands were several burns from the sun, looking extremely horrific.
