If The Moon Can Be Counted As A Star - Chapter 46

After twelve hours of recovery, Doctor Frei got a chance to acknowledge Bai Biao, “Thank you for saving Xiao Mei Zhi.” Doctor Frei actually did not expect to meet Bai Biao in the second floor pathway. His wolf strength and power helped him gained back the damage cells from his organs, including the broken bones.

“Mister Frei, I did not know we would meet like this again.”

“So tell me, am I stupid enough to sacrifice myself like that?”

“Yes. No offense Doctor and I bet Mister Shirong will say the same thing.”

“Sacrificing myself to the vampires will help and benefit everyone to be safe including Xiao Mei Zhi. It may be stupid or heroic for some but for me. . as a father that did not get a chance to do a lot for my daughter because she was hidden away from me. . . I needed to do something that can make her remember me that even if I am not around anymore and she learned late that I am her father at least she knows that I care and still love her dearly.” Bai Biao listened.

And Doctor Frei with no more comment about himself just playfully messed up Bai Biaos’ hair like he was a funny kid, “Plus, I respected how you keep your promise 3 years ago, including the things I owed you yesterday and tomorrow with our deal that remained alive.” Doctor Frei move his other hand and took out something from his left side pants pocket, “Here is the picture that I promise to give it back to you.”

Bai Biao smiled as he saw the picture of him and Xiao Mei Zhi, smiling together with a snowman in between them.

“I already know you admired my daughter but do control your emotions. It will be trouble if you did fall for her, understood?”

Bai Biao felt guilty, he recalled how he planted a kiss on Xiao Mei Zhis cold hands. It was not intentional, he hardly did not have another choice. Then he admitted that he could just have rubbed his hands with hers. So with white lie, he said, “I know my limits. Besides, she does not remember me.”

“I hope you do know your limits Bai Biao and it is a good thing for Xiao Mei Zhi to forget those memories when she was a kid. It was entirely wrong for both of you to have a memory of being childhood sweethearts. Since your mother betrayed my ex-wife.”

“Still, me and Xiao Mei Zhi knew nothing. We are innocent, I can protect her and you –” Bai Biao raised his tone unexpectedly and Doctor Freis’ eye widened.

“You have done your job well as a hunter but that is just it. I will remind you, Do-not-cross-the-line.” With force he looked away, “Just take me to her room. And do not forget to keep an eye on her while I am away.” Doctor Frei then stepped on the right side of Bai Biao and whispered near his ear, “Yet, if I receive a news that you messed with Xiao Mei Zhi our deal is off.”

Bai Biao went silent as Doctor Frei followed him from behind. They were now heading to Xiao Mei Zhis temporary room but before Doctor Frei could enter her room, Bai Biao asked him with a lot of questions.

“What if my mother did not cheated your ex-wife? Would you let Xiao Mei Zhi stay with me? If I could fixed what has been broken would you let me love your daughter again?”

Doctor Freis hands were shaking after hearing Bai Biaos words, he can not let another hunter repeat the same mistakes again. “Get lost on my sight now or Stay here to end our deal? You must know that your mother is one of the reason why hybrid creatures like me got divided away from my family.” Bai Biao left the area after hearing the things he does not want to know as Doctor Frei closed the door.

Nevertheless, both of them have another agenda that they privately kept in their mind.

Bai Biao then jogged to search for a beverage at the kitchen to calm down. However as he remembered what Doctor Frei told him, he whispered it while his dominant hand punch a wall from the kitchen, “Do not cross the line! Understood Bai Biao?” After a minute of releasing a few deep breaths in every other punch, he started removing his hand away from the wall. It was red and bleeding.

“Shit! I do not think I can continue this mission if I stay here in the Freis Residence,” Bai Biao throws his hand on the fridge and get a grip with a cold coke in the can.

But what would the hunters do to him, if they knew what he did?

He was unable to think clearly of a way to protect Xiao Mei Zhi and keep the mission going..

“Brother Bai?” Jingyi who was standing in the door with a dried blood on her neck and knees, crossed her arms staring at him.

“What? Do not give me that look,”

“Oh please, as if you never saw me act like this.”

“Why are you here?”

“You seem to own this place. Are you one of the Frei?”

Bai Biao shifted his sight by avoiding Jingyi while he took a sip from his coke.

“Last night was fun, right?” Jingyi taunted him as she poked his coke with her index finger nails.

“Yeah, tell me about it. I almost died because of you.” Jingyi then innocently smiled as she lowered down her index finger and raised up her middle finger at the same time her smile instantly disappeared in just a blink.

“Say that again or I will use my fangs to kill you,” Bai Biao put down his coke together with Jingyis middle finger.

“Do not threat those who are older than you.”

“Idiot. I am not here to act kiddie kid with you brother Bai. Besides you are liable in killing those harmless children too.”

“What do you mean?”

“Stop pretending that you are not to blame here,” Jingyi then harshly pulled out a banana that has been placed at the center of a counter then she speaks again, “I know you send out my location to those Gamma vampires. Correct?”

Bai Biao dropped his coke, the contents were spilled out on the clean floor, “If Mister Shirong and Mister Frei finds out about this,” Jingyi slaps Bai Biaos face to looked at her, “You surely will die.” She even behaved disrespectfully as she faintly smiled at Bai Biao while she positioned her right hand starting to the left side of her neck and slowly going to the right side.

“Yet, there is only one solution and you know that you must clear this up with the other hunters.”

“By that phrase, you meant I should meet up with them and convince them to change their planning?”

“Bingo!”
