Because of My Stupidity, I Became a Timid Vampire

Chapter 103 : I Like Her

At that moment, the entire room fell into an eerie silence, time seeming to freeze at this instant.

Bei Yaochen just looked at them, his expression frighteningly calm, but if one observed carefully, they could still see his hands trembling slightly from extreme anger.

Her heart beating terrifyingly fast, Xifeng commanded herself not to panic, forcibly calmed herself down, squeezed out a strained smile, and said to Bei Yaochen: "Dad, it's not what you think, we were just..."

Xifeng deliberately slowed her speech to give her panic-stricken brain some time to fabricate lies, but looking at Bei Yaochen's grim expression, she finally wisely closed her mouth and stopped talking.

They had indeed been kissing, and in an extremely intimate position. This was undeniable. Under this premise, all lies were merely self-deception.

Xifeng had originally thought their relationship could be hidden a little longer, that they could dodge for as long as possible, but she never expected to be exposed so quickly. The change came so suddenly that she hadn't figured out how to respond.

Slowly walking to the front of the two, Bei Yaochen's eyes changed several times. He raised his hand high, then swung it down heavily...

Slowly closing her eyes, Xifeng didn't intend to dodge, because she truly felt sorry toward Bei Yaochen. She was the one who had corrupted his daughter, leading Bei Yaoyue down a path of no return. Even if Bei Yaochen expelled her from the house on the spot, she wouldn't have any complaints.

"Slap!"

A loud slapping sound echoed throughout the room, but the expected severe pain didn't strike her face. Xifeng opened her eyes in confusion, only to see Bei Yaoyue beside her with her head lowered, covering her cheek. Her ink-black hair had become disheveled from this slap, covering most of her expression.

Xifeng was stunned. Why didn't he hit her? Clearly it was all her fault, clearly she was the culprit, clearly she should bear all the blame...

But why was Bei Yaoyue the one being punished? Why???

"One slap isn't enough, I'll give you two more!" His voice mixed with unstoppable anger, Bei Yaochen quickly raised his right hand and swung it down again.

Seeing this, Xifeng wanted to step forward to stop him, but before she could stand up, the slap had already landed on Bei Yaoyue's face.

"Slap! Slap!"

The sound was so loud it could be heard clearly even outside the room, showing that Bei Yaochen had used almost all his strength without holding back at all.

Silently enduring all of this, Bei Yaoyue lowered her head. Her scattered bangs completely blocked her eyes, only revealing her slightly swollen cheeks and tightly pressed lips.

"Bei Yaoyue!" Calling Bei Yaoyue by her full name, Bei Yaochen breathed heavily, feeling like his lungs were about to explode from anger. "Xifeng is my daughter, your sister! You even laid hands on her! You beast! Do you want to rebel!"

He didn't know how long it had been since he'd been this angry. He, who had always been best at controlling his expressions and emotions, actually had a day when his emotions lost control.

Sibling incest... this word exploded in his heart like a hydrogen bomb, making him almost unable to believe it.

Swallowing, Xifeng gathered her courage and said: "Dad, me and sister..."

She had to stand up and shield Bei Yaoyue from all of this.

"Xifeng." Bei Yaochen interrupted her with a calm voice. "This has nothing to do with you."

"..." Xifeng bit her lip, wanting to say something but finding herself speechless.

Looking at the clear handprint on Bei Yaoyue's face, she felt heartache so severe she could barely breathe. How she wished she could bear these scoldings in Bei Yaoyue's place.

"What happened?"

A shocked cry came from outside the door. Xifeng turned to look and saw it was Kisaragi Ichika, apparently attracted by Bei Yaochen's angry roar.

The scene before her made Kisaragi Ichika freeze. She then rushed in quickly, looking at the red handprint on Bei Yaoyue's face, her heart aching so much she was about to cry.

She gently held Bei Yaoyue in her arms and turned to glare angrily at Bei Yaochen: "What are you doing? She's your biological daughter! Can't you talk things out properly? Why did you have to hit her?"

"Let her explain herself." Bei Yaochen sighed heavily, turned his back, his voice much calmer now.

Kisaragi Ichika was right. Bei Yaoyue was his biological daughter. If he hadn't been blinded by anger, how could he bear to strike her?

Actually, he had regretted it right after slapping her three times. He felt he had indeed been too impulsive today.

"Yueyue, what's wrong?" Gently patting Bei Yaoyue's back, Kisaragi Ichika asked in the gentlest voice possible, "Can you tell Mom?"

Bei Yaoyue had remained silent since Bei Yaochen entered the room. She maintained her silence even when faced with Kisaragi Ichika's inquiry. After a moment, she suddenly raised her head, looked toward Bei Yaochen's back, and said firmly: "I like her."

The sudden confession made Xifeng's face flush pink. Bei Yaoyue had said these words to Bei Yaochen, but Xifeng felt as if they were intentionally said for her to hear.

Kisaragi Ichika looked completely confused. Like? Yueyue already had someone she liked?

She couldn't help thinking that her autistic daughter, who never interacted with anyone, finally had someone she liked. Wasn't this a good thing? Why was Bei Yaochen angry?

Bei Yaochen frowned, his voice heavy as he said: "Do you really understand what it means to like someone?"

This sentence seemed to deeply stimulate some soft spot in Bei Yaoyue's heart. Her body trembled, then she broke free from Kisaragi Ichika's embrace and rushed toward the door.

Xifeng was startled and quickly put on her slippers to follow. When she reached the door, she discovered that Bei Yaoluo had somehow come as well, but seemed to have stayed outside due to her position and hadn't interfered, just watching from outside the door.

Due to her physical condition, her speed was much slower than Bei Yaoyue's. By the time she followed Bei Yaoyue down the stairs, she could no longer see Bei Yaoyue's figure.

Xifeng grabbed a maid who was cleaning on the first floor and asked anxiously: "Excuse me, did you see where Bei Yaoyue went?"

"The Young Miss seemed to have gone out the front door just now." The maid pointed toward the main entrance.

Out the front door? But it was still raining outside!

Xifeng quickly pushed open the front door and indeed immediately saw Bei Yaoyue's back, her heart receiving a vicious stab.

She saw Bei Yaoyue standing alone on the street outside the courtyard gate, already soaked through by the torrential rain, but she seemed completely oblivious to it.

From that slender back, Xifeng read a trace of desolation and loneliness. Her nose immediately stung, and tears almost burst forth.

Not caring that she was only wearing pajamas, she resolutely rushed into the torrential rain, running toward that figure.
