My Vampire Faints at Blood Chapter 49
Darker Skin Tones are Less Prone to Sunburn
"What – are you telling the truth?!" Vita was shocked and shivered. He quickly looked at his shoulder and the little red tattoo before taking his shirt and wiping it dry, "I heard them say tattoos will hurt, I thought it was normal... What will happen to me? Will it continue to bleed? Will I die?!"
"It's not that serious, come here, I'll help you deal with it." Looking at the vampire boy with wheat skin tone in front of him, Doctor Shang raised his eyebrows with interest, fished out a first aid kit from a drawer, and waved at him good-naturedly.
The young man warily stared at the human who had kidnapped his brother, his steps were hesitant, but he moved cautiously over. "Are you really that kind? I'm telling you, I'm the leader of the vampire community, so don't even think about trying to play any tricks on me!"
"If you hadn't come to me in the middle of the day, sweating and tanned like you're wearing olive oil, this statement would have some credibility." Doctor Shang responded carelessly, pressing the teenager's arm with one hand to prevent him from struggling, and waved towards the two little dragons.
Although they had only been with their Brother Doctor for the morning, the two little ones had already quickly gotten into the mood and completely immersed themselves in the role of doctor's little helper. Without him having to say anything, they got up and leapt forward, one holding the iodine ball bucket, the other holding the forceps, pushing and shoving and flying back.
"Good boys, you're getting good at it." After stroking the two little ones' horns, Doctor Shang gave a serious word of encouragement and grabbed the forceps. He picked up the iodine cotton ball and switched it to his left hand before pressing it down towards the teenager's already red and swollen tattoo wound.
"Hiss – hurts hurts hurts!" Vita drew a cold breath of pain, but only after a miserable scream, and Xian Bei, who was ready on the side, picked up a ball of gauze and stuffed it precisely into his mouth.
"I wonder if you two will scare your dads when you go back with me..." Looking at the two little ones' skilled and decisive aura, Shang Haojia couldn't help but laugh softly. He patted the two little ones encouragingly and patiently looked at the terrified vampire boy, "Don't be afraid, I'm not kidnapping you – I'm just asking, do you really know how to suck blood?"
"Of course I can suck blood, who are you looking down on?" There are probably quite a few people who have asked this, as Vita apparently was extremely sensitive to this topic. He pulled out the gauze stuffed in the mouth, indignantly slammed on the table, and his eyes suddenly diffused a scarlet red as two small sharp teeth came out from his lips, "I just have a darker complexion! Human beings call it a healthy beauty. Why is it that when a vampire is tan, everyone thinks they have a disease? Everyone is forcing me to be pale – I don't want any more whitening injections or hydration injections anymore!"
"Young Master Vita, do not make a scene!"
Shang Haojia subconsciously looked up and saw a man standing at the door with a thick raincoat over his body. The person's face was tightly covered with sunglasses and a mask, and he was carrying a large black umbrella. Obviously, he was very afraid of the direct sunlight at noon, but couldn't help following the young master around in case he caused trouble at the risk of being dried out heroically as he followed.
The young master actually dared to flash his canine teeth at this human devil, so the man hurriedly rushed through the door, looking at the righteous and indignant young vampire. He glanced at the human doctor in front of him, then vigilantly lowered his voice. "Master, this human is not an ordinary human being – He is a great demon who can kidnap our young master, who can easily take down a werewolf with one hand, who the Lord Elf Apostle has to retreat from when he sees him, and who the Holy Lions are interested in befriending. Don't you see? Even his assistants are real deal dragons..."
"......" He never thought he would turn into the legendary great devil just like that. The human doctor blinked blankly, and for a moment actually didn't know whether he should be properly modest or not, "Wait a minute, in fact–"
"You're actually so powerful... I've decided, I want to worship you as my boss! Accept me as your little brother, okay? Who are you displeased with? I will help you bite him!"
"Young Master Vita, what are you talking about – are you willing to fall into this human's demon cave with the eldest young master and leave the family to Molly Qing, Young Master Molly Mibao and the others?!" Looking at the young master who thought one thing and then another in horror, the loyal vampire elder hugged the waist of the young vampire. Shaking his head with tears in his eyes, he tried to dissuade the young master from this terrible idea, "You must be calm, after all, you are different from the Eldest Young Master. The Eldest Young Master is really suffering from some defects, you are just unattractive looking..."
"You are the one who is unattractive, your whole family is unattractive!" The teenager stormed away, pushing his arm away and firmly jumping to the side of the human doctor, "From now on you are my boss, I'll follow you! Let's dominate the world together – I'm asking you if it's okay!"
"Okay, okay. Let me finish treating the wound, then I'll talk to you about world domination." Doctor Shang tugged the vampire boy to sit down and skillfully cleaned and disinfected his wound, then applied some erythromycin ointment to it after it was almost dry, "The weather is hot now, so the wound should be ventilated. You can wash it with warm water. You can't eat spicy things. Children are not allowed to drink and smoke, do you remember?"
"I'll remember..." As he was pressed to sit on the chair, Vita nodded awkwardly, and relentlessly grabbed the human doctor's arm, eyes suddenly red, "Am I really so unattractive? Why do they look good when they're white and pale, and I have to get whitening injections?"
"Don't listen to their nonsense – your family has an aesthetic problem, you are quite good-looking." He didn't expect him to actually care so much about this matter. Hearing the teenager's voice actually choked with sobs, Doctor Shang's attitude became serious and he carefully looked at the vampire boy in front of him, "Let me ask you, are you able to ignore the side effects of the sunlight and run around during the day?"
"That's right! How did you know that?!" Vita's eyes lit up. He nodded vigorously and grunted towards the elder in a fit of anger, "My dad and them always forbid me to go out during the day, saying that as a vampire family, running around during the day is not decent..."
It was rare to meet a blood clan member that was, in a sense, relatively normal, so Doctor Shang became more patient. He patted his shoulder and explained to him in detail, "A darker complexion is because there is less melanin in the cells. In contrast, pale skin is more likely to be burned by the sun. With the occurrence of red freckles, the chance of cancer is also relatively high – you can resist the sun's rays, probably also because of this reason."
The young man listened with confused eyes, obviously not understanding such advanced medical vocabulary, but he still realised that the other party was speaking for him. He felt a strong sense of emotion, and held the human doctor's hands, "I know, you humans have a saying called 'a chicken in life is hard to come by' – I will not go home, from now on, I will follow you!"
"Young Master, Young Master, you can not – isn't the Leith family being swallowed up by this human devil?! This is all their human conspiracy!" The elder howled sadly as he hugged the legs of the teenager. He looked at the human devil in front of him with hatred and faithfully took a desperate stance, "For the honour of the Leith family, I'll fight with you–"
"What do you want to do?" Outside the window, a black fog suddenly swept through, carrying a familiar and elegant voice. The leisurely dressed pureblood king leapt in from the window, stood in the room, and slightly raised his eyebrows to look at the elder who was planning to fight, a trace of blood appearing in his eyes.
Who knew where he went all night, but his body was wrapped in a loose burgundy hoodie and a pair of jeans. Even the human doctor wouldn't have been able to recognize him from far away. He rubbed his eyes, and quickly walked over, "Where did you go – robbing Hailan House?" (Angel: Hailan House is a clothing brand.)
"I knew it, sure enough this outfit is not very suitable for me..."
Vampires' outfits have always been extremely simple, even the rebellious ones like Vita, who only dared to wear a half sleeve T-shirt, a suit jacket with a single red spider lily blooming on it, and a baseball cap; this was already considered the most non-mainstream existence for any vampire. When he saw the shock and dismay in his doctor's eyes, Wei Long shook his head with a bitter smile and put the KFC family bucket and two bottles of cold Coke on the table, "My dear, does this really look very strange? Should I find a change of clothes somewhere–"
"Takes out electric chainsaw, pulls electric chainsaw. Brother Vampire is putting on a show in front of the door!" Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by the crisp laughter of the little dragons. Subconsciously lowering his head, the two little dragons were already holding the sides of his hoodie, tugging back and forth excitedly, playing with it with great interest. (Angel: The little dragons sang part of a children's song, altering it to fit the situation.)
"No – it's not really surprising at all, after all, when it comes to things like dressing up, it's really mostly about the face." After surviving the initial visual shock, Doctor Shang smoothly accepted the challenge of his vampire's new image. He nodded gratefully and patted his shoulder with a smile, "Did Muxi find these clothes for you? They're nice, although it's a new style, it unexpectedly suits you... It's so hot outside and you just ran straight here, didn't you get sunburned?"
"The Special Department has developed a new imitation sunscreen, mainly for the ghost race. Because the ghost race will fly into oblivion when they see the sunlight, they asked me to try it out, and it seems to work very well indeed." The vampire's eyes finally showed relief when he got the affirmation of his human. He walked over with two little dragons flying around in circles and looked at the trembling elder of the blood clan kindly, "When I first arrived, I heard you talking to my mate, can you repeat what you said at that time?"
"I... I..." The oddly dressed king of purebloods was still the king of purebloods. The elder shuddered in fear, stammered a response, and spinelessly wimped out, "I said – for the honour of the Leith family, we warmly send Young Master Vita as an exchange student to follow the esteemed human demon king for exchange and study..."
