The Green Tea's Target is Always Wrong【Quick Transmigration】(Completed BL)

Chapter 27: I want to be both your younger brother and stepmother. (4)

The little bear looked puzzled. "Isn't it?"

Yue Chu chuckled, casually picking up the forgotten cloth from the table and tossing it at the little bear's head before calmly walking into the bedroom. This clumsy system should just play with mud in the corner.

He closed all the doors and windows, took a deep breath, and slowly spread out his fingers to release the illusion based on what he had seen of Rafa's domain last time.

Rafa, who was resting on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes. A hint of surprise flashed through his deep wine-red eyes, as if he had seen something and yet lingered in an unknown place.

Yue Chu sighed, retracting the illusion. It still didn't work. What else was there that he hadn't figured out?

The black bats hanging upside down outside the window flapped their wings silently as they departed. Yue Chu's eyes gleamed faintly as he calmly picked up the book on the table to study. In a few days, His Majesty would be examining them in their lessons. As someone who had taken an unorthodox path, he felt quite pressured.

Dong, dong, dong, the midnight bells rang again. Weary birds perched on the edge of the castle, idly grooming their black feathers. Lanterns hung from tall trees, flickering with the wind and casting strange shadows on the ground.

The brightly lit hall once again filled with people, but this time, there was no sense of relaxation as before; instead, everyone seemed nervous, like students facing an inspection.

Yue Chu stood silently in the corner, his lonely figure appearing particularly desolate. However, his expression remained calm as he hastily studied the thick book in his hands, making a final push before the exam.

If in the previous world, his knowledge of mechas was somewhat acceptable, then the magic knowledge in this world gave him quite a headache, especially with those ancient and intricate terms, which were very tongue-twisting just to read.

When Rafa came in, Yue Chu barely managed to put away his book. Although his face still wore a faint smile, only he himself knew the degree of uncertainty in his heart.

Hopefully, he wouldn't end up at the bottom.

Rafa assumed the role of chief examiner, which added considerable pressure on the young vampire candidates. One of them even struggled to speak properly and was promptly ejected from the hall by Rafa.

The atmosphere grew increasingly oppressive.

Yue Chu lightly smirked, feeling somewhat relieved. It seemed he wasn't the worst performer after all.

Finally, it was Xinuo's turn. It had to be admitted that this prince, groomed since childhood, indeed possessed profound knowledge. He could answer many tricky and eccentric questions.

Rafa nodded approvingly. He had always known Xinuo was a smart kid, but it was precisely because he was too clever that he never focused his mind on one thing. During the period he fell into a slumber, the elders relaxed their supervision of Xinuo, which led to his stagnation in power. Now, with Rafa's guidance, he was sure to progress just as before.

Rafa said, "Keep up the good work."

Affirming Xinuo's performance and giving him his encouragement, Rafa's icy eyes showed a hint of warmth only when facing Xinuo.

Xinuo's excitement faltered for a moment, then he forced a smile and thanked his father. Indeed, no matter how well he did, his father would never be satisfied. Sometimes he felt he was not even as good as an ordinary noble. At least others could see the end of their efforts, while he could never surpass the high mountain that was his father.

Yue Chu smirked knowingly. A stern father and a rebellious son, it was truly a headache-inducing relationship.

The last to answer was Yue Chu, deliberately arranged by Rafa to be last. The entire exam arrangement revealed Rafa's favoritism. At the beginning, he was too nervous, so Rafa didn't arrange for Xinuo. And in the end, he was too tired, so he didn't arrange for Xinuo either.

To highlight Xinuo's status, Rafa even pushed Yue Chu, who was also a pure-blood, to the very end. He was telling Yue Chu that even with his pure-blood status, he was no different from the ordinary nobles here. Xinuo was the ruler, and he could only be a subject.

Rafa looked at the child before him, gentle as jade. If he said there was not an ounce of pity in his heart, that would be a lie. Strong, excellent, diligent, and eager to learn, every quality in this child was his favorite. Moreover, having only seen him once, he was able to construct the initial model of a domain, which was nothing short of extraordinary talent.

If it weren't for his rationality stopping him, he wanted to take this child with him and personally teach him.

Rafa clenched his fists, but he knew he couldn't. That would undoubtedly shake Xinuo's position. Even if Yue Chu didn't have that idea, even if he didn't have that idea, those complex and intricate forces would never miss an opportunity to seize credit.

Rafa lowered his gaze and tested Yue Chu with a few questions. The questions he posed weren't easy but weren't overly difficult either. Even if Yue Chu answered them all correctly, it wouldn't earn him any extra points. This was perhaps his most despicable selfishness.

Perhaps out of reluctance, after hearing Yue Chu finish speaking with his poor terminology, Rafa said lightly, "Still lacking, you need to work harder."

Yue Chu smiled lightly, his gaze clear like the morning sun, though it was blood-red in color, it was clearer than most people's. The smile in his eyes was like a warm spring day, carrying a pleasant yet shy emotion, flowing directly towards Rafa. There was no questioning, no resentment, only admiration and happiness.

Yue Chu: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will continue to work hard."

After speaking, Yue Chu lowered his head, and all the springtime smiles dissipated, leaving only a dark and cold atmosphere. He still retreated to the corner, standing quietly with his hands hanging down, contrasting starkly with the people huddling around, inexplicably appearing particularly bleak.

Rafa pursed his lips. Was he being too cruel? Yue Chu had already stopped competing, placing himself in a low position, yet he still had to constantly suppress him.

He impatiently moved his fingers. His excessively noble position had kept him from experiencing such emotional fluctuations for a long time. The usually decisive Blood King of the vampires was unexpectedly unsettled by the appearance of a small pure-blood.

He closed his eyes and decided to send Xinuo back to his territory as soon as possible.

Outside the castle, Dila cautiously tugged at the intricate sleeve of Feilin. "Feilin, why do I feel like His Highness is not in a good mood?"

Feilinpulled her sleeve back disdainfully, distancing herself from Dila. This ugly guy, could he stay away from her? Just looking at him was irritating.

Feilin: "His Highness is under a lot of pressure right now. Don't go bothering him."

Dila: "Pressure? What pressure?"

Feilin's gaze swept over Yue Chu, who was walking towards another path not far away. "Naturally, it's the existence of another pure-blood."

Dila looked puzzled. "But hasn't His Majesty already made it clear that the heir will only be His Highness?"

Feilin shook her head helplessly. That's right. The saying goes, 'Those involved are confused, while bystanders see clearly.' It's obvious that His Highness Xinuo is already trapped in his own emotions and cannot see the deeper meaning behind His Majesty's actions. She had tried to remind him once or twice, but all she received was His Highness Xinuo's anger, so she dared not say more.

Feilin was also a bit puzzled, not understanding where His Highness Xinuo's inner emotions were coming from.
