The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress C.317: 《Today Evening》

Wow, her father's cursing was so dirty.

Was this how Xavier always cursed when she wasn't around?

So powerful and badass, she had to admit the destructive force of this verbal assault.

Chloe didn't bother to hide her presence.

She was now openly leaning against the door, opening a small crack to carefully listen to the conversation inside.

The slight movement quickly caught the attention of those in the office.

Xavier looked up and caught sight of his daughter's dark red eyes, filled with interest.

Seeing him look over, she happily raised her hand and waved.

Then she blew him a kiss.

Xavier: "..."

Benny turned his head and saw her, his already tense heart nearly seizing up.

He clearly remembered Chloe's sharp teeth at the border.

This father-daughter duo, neither of them was easy to deal with.

Benny felt a headache coming on.

Seeing Benny look over, Chloe immediately stepped out from behind the door and walked towards Xavier without any hesitation.

As she entered, her little entourage followed suit.

Suddenly, five people entered the office, all tall, long-legged military school students with an imposing presence.

The once spacious office instantly felt cramped.

Benny's face darkened: "What are you all doing here?"

He glanced back and immediately spotted his nephew Daniel, instantly fuming with anger.

His nephew! His eldest nephew! Actually mingling with the Vampire!

Oh no, not just Vampires, but also the Human Race and Elf Race!

Were they some kind of racial melting pot?!

Chloe caught sight of Benny's indignant expression and lazily smiled:

"Oh my, what are you saying? I'm just here to visit my daddy."

As she spoke, Chloe skillfully wrapped her arm around Xavier's, affectionately nuzzling him:

"My dad's been gone for over two hours, of course I had to come check on him."

Xavier: "..."

You're not usually this clingy.

Benny frowned deeply: "Well, that's unfortunate. Your father and I just finished our discussion, so you can all leave now."

Hearing this, Chloe blinked: "That's not right. Weren't you two still cursing at each other before I came in? I saw you were so caught up in insulting each other that you hadn't discussed anything important. I thought you'd need much longer to finish."

She nudged Xavier's arm: "Dad, isn't that right?"

Chloe's strength was considerable. Xavier discreetly rubbed his sore arm and agreed:

"Mm, you're right."

He looked up at Benny: "We indeed have many things left to discuss."

The man sat with his legs crossed, in a relaxed posture, his other arm held by Chloe, his eyes deep and steady:

"For instance, the Wolf King has yet to agree to let us take a look at the Central Research Institute."

Central Research Institute?

Chloe thought of how the entire Werewolf Race was forced to study biology and conduct experiments, and a question mark slowly formed in her mind.

Why did the Werewolf Race have so many research institutes and laboratories?

Thinking of their strange experiments, she felt the entire race was quite neurotic from top to bottom.

A bunch of lunatics, only Daniel, who lived among them, seemed slightly better.

Benny gritted his teeth: "Ancestor, aren't you going too far?"

"The Central Research Institute is a crucial place for our race. What gives you the right to just waltz in as you please?"

Xavier's expression remained calm: "The Forest of Life is also a crucial place for the Elf Race, yet I still went in, didn't I?"

Benny slammed the table: "That's because the Elf Race is useless! How could we Werewolves allow you to humiliate us like this?"

He looked truly angry, his unshaven face turning red with frustration. He repeated: "How could I allow you to trample on the dignity of the Werewolf Race!"

Xavier: "Really, there's no way?"

"No!"

"No room for negotiation?"

"None!!!"

"Very well, then I'll have the army attack."

"..." Benny calmed down, "Wait, I didn't say we couldn't negotiate."

Xavier fixed him with a meaningful gaze.

Benny pretended not to notice: "A visit is fine, but even in the research institute, there are some areas that are off-limits. You'll have to follow the institute's rules."

Xavier's lips curled into a faint smile: "Naturally."

Chloe, who had been observing the whole time, couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Was this what negotiation through overwhelming force looked like?

It was so cool!

Benny and Xavier continued to discuss some matters, while Chloe busied herself serving tea in the background, being unusually attentive.

It wasn't until Xavier left the office in high spirits, making sure the door was tightly closed, that Chloe eagerly asked:

"Can't we really just attack directly? Can we pretend to agree to his conditions and then have the army come in at night?"

That would be so cool.

Hearing this, Xavier paused his steps, turned his head, and said helplessly:

"The soundproofing in Pahol Palace isn't as good as you think."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chloe sensed something and turned around. She saw that Benny, who had been in the office, had somehow come out and was staring at her with a resentful and angry gaze.

"..." Chloe said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was just joking."

She then pretended as if nothing had happened and pulled Xavier away.

Even after leaving Pahol Palace, Chloe kept looking back, afraid that Benny's head might pop out from some pink wall.

When they were far enough away, before Chloe could speak, Daniel asked first:

"Can we really not do what Chloe suggested?"

Xavier: "..."

He was about to speak but hesitated, finally choosing to remind him gently: "You're a Werewolf."

Daniel looked puzzled: "I know that."

How could he not know his own race? Was he that stupid?

Xavier looked at his innocent face, pursed his lips, and finally decided not to bother.

He already had one airhead in his family, there was no need to worry about someone else's.

He turned his head and caught sight of Chloe again.

Her eyes were shining, obviously very eager for his answer.

Xavier felt a deep sense of helplessness: "We can't do that."

"Huh?" As expected, Chloe was disappointed, "Why not? I think the Werewolf Race deserves it."

Deserves to be treated so shamelessly.

Xavier closed his eyes briefly and said softly: "We are nobles. We have to maintain our dignity."

Chloe looked up at him and pouted: "Tch, you're no fun."

Xavier: "..."

What an unfortunate family.

Chloe let go of her father's arm and walked a few steps forward, then turned back: "Where's the Central Research Institute? I want to go take a look."

Xavier: "Wait, I'll go with you all."

"When?"

"Tomorrow."

Chloe stared at him intently.

Xavier gave in, pinching the bridge of his nose, and said resignedly:

"This evening."
