Chapter 383: Chapter 383 East District

"Alright." Lin Mengyao agreed to Xu Ke’s arrangement, and the two of them slowly walked behind Ariel, who was humming an unknown tune ahead, looking quite happy.

The two arrived at Arthur’s residence, and as they entered the living room, a surge of the smell of blood hit them, causing Lin Mengyao to immediately retract her foot that had just stepped over the threshold.

"Why are you still standing outside? Come in." Ariel, wearing fluffy white slippers with bunny ears, stepped on the dark carpet. The areas she stepped on sank in and red liquid seeped up, staining the edges of Ariel’s white slippers red.

Lin Mengyao watched this scene, her eyes widening instantly, her stomach churning with nausea, while Xu Ke appeared calm and unruffled, much to Ariel’s liking.

"If you don’t like it, we can go back." Xu Ke whispered into Lin Mengyao’s ear, his eyes filled with concern as he looked at her.

"No need, since we’re already here." Lin Mengyao shook her head, holding onto Xu Ke’s arm.

"Don’t force yourself. If you don’t want to stay, I can still take you out of here." Xu Ke said, supporting Lin Mengyao’s arm.

"Really, it’s alright, I can handle it." Lin Mengyao’s face still looked a bit pale, and when she smiled at Xu Ke, there was an indescribable sense of fragility and pity. For a moment, Xu Ke wanted to take Lin Mengyao away, but seeing her determined eyes, he stayed.

Lin Mengyao changed into the slippers handed over by a servant and walked in with Xu Ke.
