Is it okay to run away with me?

Chapter 12 That World
  When Bai Qi woke up, a Western breakfast was placed on the small round table in the room.

Helios slept on the sofa in the room yesterday. The reason why he did not allow Bai Qi to go to other rooms was because he was afraid that his brothers and sisters would hurt her.

Helios was sitting by the window playing with his candlestick. He smiled and said, "You are awake, please have a meal."

"Don't you have a kitchen at home?"

"I went out to buy it this morning." Helios said, pointing to the pile of food in the room.

"Do your brothers and sisters allow you to go out?"

"I went secretly."

"Your Highness Helios, you are really rebellious..."

Bai Qi took a sip of hot coffee, ate ham and bread and asked, "Then how do you go out? Don't your hair and eyes attract attention?"

"I wrapped myself up really tight."

"How strict?"

"Like a mummy..."

"Your Highness Helios, are you kidding me?"

"It's just a head wrap." Helios smiled happily.

The young master of the vampire family is quite cute.

Dylan and Nicks both had their own matters to deal with, so Helios took Bai Qi to the garden.

The garden is behind the castle. I didn't expect there to be such a splendid sea of ​​flowers behind the dark castle.

Because the seeds of the flowers are tainted with their energy, they remain gorgeous even in winter. On the left are patches of white roses, on the right are patches of red roses, with a path and fountain in the middle.

"Wow! These roses are so beautiful. They look like exquisite products grown in a laboratory." Bai Qi smelled the red roses.

"Because we cast our own magic on the flower's seeds," Helios said.

Bai Qi smiled: "You vampires are more like gods. If you weren't sucking human blood, humans would definitely build temples to worship you."

But Helios's head drooped.

"Don't think too much, I don't mean anything else." Bai Qi explained. “Bai Qi, where are you from?” Helios couldn’t help but ask.

"I...come from China, the China of 2023."

They were used to being honest with each other.

"More than two hundred years later?" Helios looked in disbelief.

"correct."

Helios asked: "Bai Qi, what is that world like?"

"Very curly."

"What is a roll?"

"For example, if everyone knows that you are a vampire, they will use you as a gimmick and let you go on live broadcasts to deliver goods. They will not care about your identity at all. The fertility rate is getting lower and lower, and the mental state of young people is getting worse and worse. It's not normal. In short, everyone has to work hard to survive." Bai Qi shook his head.

Although he couldn't understand what she was talking about, Helios smiled.

"What else? Where's your life?"

"me……"

So Bai Qi told Helios his story.

She was raised in foster care with relatives since she was a child. She finally went to college and earned money part-time to live independently.

The only light in her life is her childhood sweetheart and Grandma Wang from the house next door. But her childhood sweetheart used her ID card to take out loans, leaving her with huge debts right after graduation.

After taking over the clothing store and touching the ruby ​​necklace and coming into this world, Helios knew everything about it.

She told her story very simply, but when she talked about her childhood sweetheart, Bai Qi felt a little depressed: "I thought he was someone who really cared about me."

"Bai Qi, he's too much."

"But he told me that the world is inherently dark, so don't trust others easily. This counts as teaching me a lesson." Bai Qi shrugged.
