CHAPTER 37

Zhenyuan made his way into Yaxuan's room that morning where Yaxuan was sitting at the piano. Zhenyuan never knew Yaxuan played piano, but he ignored the fact because he had more important issues to attend to.

'Yaxuan, where do you think Mia and Jungwon would go for lunch?' Zhenyuan asked, leaning on the piano.

'Are you jealous Zhenyuan? Don't be jealous over a human woman. You just forgot what vampire women look like. Have you seen my mom?' Yaxuan smirked. 'Most vampire women look like that. Besides, you're a prince. You probably already have your wife waiting for you...'

'Hey, I'm not jealous.' Zhenyuan stopped Yaxuan before he could go on indefinitely. 'I just think we should protect Mia and make sure Jungwon doesn't bite her first.'

'You know the best way to avoid that is by biting her first you moron!' Yaxuan exclaimed. 'I mean...Prince...I'm sorry. We kinda grew up together.' he shrugged.

'Have I always been this lenient to your stupidity when I had my memory?' Zhenyuan warned him.

Yaxuan nodded. 'Obviously.'

Zhenyuan rolled his eyes. 'Anyway, got any idea where they could go?'

'As a matter of fact, I do.' Yaxuan said proudly. 'If Jungwon suggested this date, he's most likely to take her to a restaurant called "Oraimo". That's the only restaurant he really likes to go to because it has a dark theme and it's dark inside.'

'It's not a date Yaxuan!' Zhenyuan nodded. Jungwon seemed to have a vampire attitude more than he did. 'Can you give me directions?'

'Sure.' Yaxuan nodded. 'I'd come with you but in case you haven't noticed, I'm not into this Mia thing.' Yaxuan got up from the piano and started to explain the direction to Zhenyuan, which he listened to as he nodded.

...

Zhenyuan walked over to the restaurant in a hoodie and a baseball cap, trying to avoid recognition at all costs. He didn't want either Jungwon or Mia to notice his presence. When he walked into the restaurant, the first thing he saw was Mia and Jungwon, sitting opposite to each other on the black chairs. Mia was the one facing the door and she looked at him when he entered, but she looked away soon enough, believing it was a stranger.

Zhenyuan walked over to the table after theirs and sat down, his back facing Mia's. He looked around the restaurant which seemed to be themed for luxury but looked rather creepy to Zhenyuan. The blinds weren't open as well, perhaps that's why Jungwon loved it so much.

The waitress walked over to Zhenyuan, much to Zhenyuan's annoyance. He didn't want to speak because he was afraid that Mia and Jungwon would hear his voice, especially Jungwon with probably sharper hearing than a human.

Zhenyuan laid the menu on the table and pointed at cola on it.

'Cola?' The waitress repeated, just to be sure. Not knowing that she was annoying Zhenyuan.

He nodded his head.

'Alright coming right up.' She answered and walked off.

'So...what do you know about your family?' Jungwon asked Mia, and Zhenyuan heard it pretty clear. He knew why Jungwon was asking such a question.

'Uh...a lot of course...'

'No like...something interesting. Maybe that there were vampire slayers in your family or something.' He asked her with a smile.

Mia chuckled. 'Probably not, I've never heard of that.'

'Orr you just didn't pay attention to it. Okay, let's trace your family heritage. I have this book of the family trees of the people in this town from 1800's to 1900's, it's bound to give us something.' Jungwon quickly started to reach into his bag that was on the chair next to him.
