After refusing the third cup of blood drink offered by Heathlete, the auction finally began.

Chu Lin sat next to Heathlete, in the third row.

Because it was an informal auction, the number of items was limited, but most were quite valuable, with starting bids generally starting at millions.

Heathlete would occasionally turn to observe Chu Lin's reaction, only to find that he remained uninterested.

Until the very last item was displayed.

The vampire in charge of the explanation lifted the velvet cloth covering the cage, revealing a seated blond boy wearing revealing clothes that showed his thighs and most of his chest. He was huddled in a corner of the cage, looking terrified.

"This is the last item in the auction: a high-quality human pet, blond hair, fair skin, and straight teeth, selected from the best bred at Human Breeding Center Base 23..."

While introducing the auction items, Heathlete asked Chu Lin, "You want this?"

Chu Lin: "Yes."

Heathlete gave him a subtle look: "Really?"

Chu Lin didn't realize at first why he said that, until the person raising the paddle kept pushing the price down.

"Four million."

"Four million two hundred thousand."

"Four and a half million."

Chu Lin raised his sign: "Five million."

However, it was quickly overshadowed.

"Six million."

"Seven million."

"..."

Heathlete turned to Chu Lin and whispered, "This item is said to have been reserved by the Vincent family. If you try to compete with them, you might offend them."

Chu Lin already felt the price was too high, and after hearing Heathlete say that, he felt even more that there was no need to continue.

"Never mind then, I have something to attend to, please excuse me."

Chu Lin got up and left, and as expected, a little tail followed behind him.

Quite a few vampires left midway through the auction, especially since it was almost over, so it didn't attract much attention.

In the hallway outside the door, Heathlete said, "Don't be sad. If you really like it, I can help you. Could you please give me your contact information?"

While checking the surrounding surveillance cameras, Chu Lin casually remarked, "You're helping me steal it, right?"

Heathlete: "Not really, I can find you a similar one. Forget about this one, they're probably going to give it away... If all goes well, it'll probably become some powerful person's pet; if that vampire doesn't like it, they might just destroy it."

Chu Lin turned his head: "What did you say?"

Heathlete: "Actually, it's a bit of inside information. He'll probably be sent to the top floor. Humans in these kinds of situations are either used as live drinks or to entertain those vampires... Of course, I'm not interested in either. I'm a strong supporter of human protection organizations."

Chu Lin couldn't help but feel nauseous, but still asked, "Top floor? How many rooms are there on the top floor?"

Heathlete: "Including me, there should be three rooms in total. Would you like to come up and sit for a while? I can take you with me, but you might not be able to go to the top floor without an access card."

Although he knew the words were somewhat malicious, Chu Lin still nodded: "Okay."

Since the first plan failed, let's kill the vampire who needs to sleep with us, and then find a way to take the child away.

It's perfect to do it during the day. Just pull back the curtains, nail that vampire to the bed, and who knows if it'll be news or a scandal tomorrow...

Chu Lin was feeling quite pleased with himself when he noticed Heathlete suddenly leaning closer, as if she wanted to touch his face.

"Um," Chu Lin stepped aside, "do you like to drink?"

Heathlete: "Hmm?"

Chu Lin smiled and said, "Could I bring a drink? I prefer to be a little tipsy."

This was different from her previous distant or indifferent attitude; instead, it was spoken in an almost coquettish tone, soft and ambiguously suggestive...

Especially that already excessively beautiful face, those irresistibly cute eyes—if it even hinted at a desire for closeness, no vampire could resist.

While inwardly proclaiming that this was the wife he had fallen in love with at first sight, Heathlet maintained a calm demeanor on the surface and tried to suppress some unsightly physical reactions.

"Yes, sir, Mr. Seville."

Chu Lin's hand, which was in his pocket, touched a little of the sleeping powder from the bag, but he smiled and remained silent.

……

"The privacy and security here are quite good, so you can rest well. The room key is on the doorknob. I'll come to call you for dinner at 8 pm tomorrow."

Alpha hummed in agreement.

Finally, Xiwen sent Alpha a work-related summary table and then left in the top-floor elevator.

After entering the room, Alpha took a shower as usual, and then carried out official business in the outer hall while wearing a bathrobe.

It was very quiet all around, with almost no sound.

When Alpha realized something was wrong, she suddenly heard a crying sound that sounded like a cat's meow.

He closed his laptop, went to the bedroom, and then found a bulge in the blankets on his bed.

Alpha's eyelids twitched, and a sense of foreboding washed over him.

He pulled back the covers and stared at a blond human inside.

Alpha was even a little angry: "Who brought you here?"

The human didn't speak, but seemed very frightened, trembling slightly.

Alpha sighed. "I'll have them send you back."

However, just as he was about to leave, the human seemed to be startled, reached out and grabbed his hem, and shook his head violently.

Those sent in this kind of situation are most likely already trained, thinking that if they are not liked, they will be punished or even destroyed.

Sure enough, the human began to cry in fear, clasping his hands together and bowing repeatedly.

"Why are you crying? Get up and put your clothes on."

Alpha even used some human language words he had learned before to say to him, "Clothes, understand?"

Meanwhile, outside the door, which Alpha hadn't noticed, came a soft click from the lock.

Chu Lin used a hacking tool to unlock the door and closed it as he entered.

After briefly observing the layout of the room, Chu Lin took out a portable silenced pistol from his waist and tiptoed towards the inner room.

The door inside was half open, but no sound was heard.

Chu Lin leaned against the door, then suddenly darted inside, his gun immediately aimed at the vampires inside.

"Don't move, hands up...!"

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Lin's pupils suddenly contracted.

Alpha turned to look at Chu Lin, his expression one of shock.

In the silence, the blond human sitting on the bed silently raised his hand.
