The sun gradually sets, and Lin Dehua still does not appear.

The wind blew across the deserted streets. Lin Yingjie stood under the dim street lights and said in a crying voice: "Li Ran, what if my father and mother never show up again? I'm so scared, what should I do in the future?"

"Do you have any relatives?"

"Only mother's side, there are some elders, but I haven't seen each other a few times."

Li Ran hesitated for a moment and said, "If you don't mind, you can stay in my house temporarily before your parents go home. Anyway, my house is quite large and there are still a few empty rooms."

Lin Yingjie raised her head and threw herself into Li Ran's arms with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, Li Ran..."

This sudden situation made Li Ran a little at a loss.

He took a few seconds to calm down, then gently patted Lin Yingjie's back and comforted: "Don't worry, they will be back sooner or later.

"Cough cough..." A cough suddenly sounded beside the two of them.

Li Ran turned his head and found that it was Lin Dehua!

"Uncle Lin, you're finally back uh..."

He suddenly realized that he was still holding someone's daughter, and quickly let go of the hand that was holding Lin Yingjie.

When Lin Yingjie saw her father staying there, tears flowed down her face involuntarily.

"Dad, where is mom?" Her voice trembled, worried about hearing bad news.

Lin Dehua's face was paler than usual: "I'm sorry, Xiaojie, I couldn't bring your mother back."

"My mom..." Lin Yingjie felt a dizzy turn, her body shaking, and Li Ran reached out to support her.

"No, she is not dead yet." Seeing her daughter's reaction, Lin Dehua immediately explained, "Your mother was just taken away. I didn't catch up with them last night."

"Where did mom get caught?"

"That woman must have wanted to use your mother to lead me back to the West, so she must be alive. Xiaojie, don't worry, I will definitely go to the West and save your mother."

"Yes." Lin Yingjie stopped her tears and nodded with her red eyes.

Lin Dehua turned to look at Li Ran: "Boy, can my daughter ask you to take care of her before I come back from saving someone?"

Li Ran said seriously: "Uncle Lin, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of her."

Then he asked curiously: "But who is that woman? I was attacked by her two days ago, but I escaped later."

Lin Dehua looked at Li Ran in surprise: "You can actually escape from her. It seems that Li Ran is not an ordinary person either. Your blood is very attractive to the blood clan. It is not surprising that she will attack you if she meets you on the street.

She is the eldest lady of the night castle branch of the Italian veterinary tribe. She had an old relationship with me. But that was a long time ago. A few days ago, she found me and hoped that I would go back to the night castle with her. I rejected her, so she would take revenge on me."

Lin Dehua looked up at the night sky in the west: "Xiao Jie, if I haven't come back, promise me that you should not go to the West to find me before you have enough strength."

"Dad?" Lin Yingjie rushed forward and hugged Lin Dehua tightly, with a sad look on her face.

Lin Dehua lowered his head and whispered something in his daughter's ear. After hearing this, Lin Yingjie showed a shocked expression.

Lin Dehua let go of his daughter, turned around and walked towards the darkness of the street, and finally disappeared in front of the two of them.

"What did your dad tell you just now?"

Lin Yingjie turned around and looked at him, then quickly lowered her head.

"Nothing...Let's go home."

"Oh well."

The two walked side by side and walked towards Li Ran's house.

Lin Yingjie's mind still echoed what her father said just now - "The power of our blood clan comes from blood. The higher the quality of the blood sucked, the stronger the power you get. This kid's bloodline is unique. If you can suck his blood for a long time, you will definitely have strong power in the future. At that time, if I haven't come back, you can come to me again."

...

Li Ran pushed open the door and walked into the living room. Lin Yingjie lowered her head and followed him.

From today on, she will start living at Li Ran’s home.

Li Xiaoke, who was watching TV on the sofa, saw the two of them entering the room and asked, "How is it? Will her father come back?"

Li Ran nodded and simply said what happened to Lin Dehua, and hugged Lin or something, of course he didn't say it out.

Then he said: "Xiaoke, before Uncle Lin left, he entrusted me to take care of Lin. So from today on, Lin will live in our house for a while."

Li Xiaoke twitched slightly, then smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem. Welcome to our house, Lin...what is there?"

"My name is Lin Yingjie. I'm really sorry for causing trouble for your family." Lin Yingjie bowed very formally.

Li Xiaoke looked in along Lin Yingjie's collar, gasped in secret, and kept a smile on his face and said, "Haha, no trouble, no trouble... Anyway, this guy is doing the things at home."

Lin Yingjie said to Li Ran: "I will help you share the housework in the future."

"Okay..." Li Ran was afraid that Lin Yingjie would feel burdened, so he did not refuse.

"Why don't you see your cousin? I want to say hello to her, too." Lin Yingjie said.

"Cousin?" Li Ran didn't react for a moment.

"It's the one from the lingerie store last weekend."

Hearing the name of cousin, Li Xiaoke on the sofa jumped slightly.

"Here~"

Lin Yingjie looked in the voice and saw only a little black cat lying on the dining table.

"Just...is this cat talking?"

"It's me." Liuli said again.

"Talking cat!" Lin Yingjie opened her beautiful eyes wide, "You just said you are..."

The black cat jumped off the table, stretched out on the carpet, and turned into a cute black-haired girl.

Li Ran said in surprise: "Liuli, can you restore your human form again?"

Liuli smiled at him: "Hehe, it's OK, I've completely recovered."

Lin Yingjie pointed at Liuli and said, "You are a monster!"

"Aren't you half a vampire too?"

"Excuse me."

Lin Yingjie suddenly remembered that the night before yesterday, when Li Ran saved her, she also showed extraordinary power.

"Li Ran, are you and Xiao Ke also monsters?"

"No, she is the only monster."

"Then why do you say she is your cousin? You lied to me." Lin Yingjie frowned slightly.

"Haha, that, because I was afraid that you would misunderstand that day... so I said she was my cousin."

Liuli interrupted, "But I really regard him as my brother."

Li Xiaoke looked at the three people who were chatting enthusiastically, squinted his eyes slightly, then stood up from the sofa and walked towards his room.

"Xiao Ke, I'll call you again after dinner."

The guy's voice came from behind, and Li Xiaoke said impatiently: "I understand."

In the past, she rarely communicated with Li Ran, so the family was always deserted. Now it suddenly became lively, but she felt a little noisy.

What's going on? Why do you feel a little sour in your heart? Are you jealous of them?

No!

This is absolutely impossible.

She is the Immortal Emperor, how could she be jealous of two ants?

Back in the room, she slammed the door.

Lin Yingjie looked at Li Xiaoke's room and asked Li Ran: "Li Ran, what's wrong with your sister? Is it because of my reason that makes her unhappy?"

Li Ran smiled and said, "How could it be that she kept closing the door so loudly? Don't think too much."

"is that so?"
