Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

Chapter 157 Determination to Die

Xiao He looked at the skinny Huo Youshan calmly.

Different from the lifeless look when I saw her before.

At that time, he also told his colleagues that the girl might not live long.

After not seeing her for almost a month, he actually felt that the girl seemed to have regained her vitality.

Even if it is as weak as a firefly, it can keep her alive.

"Since I can say it, it proves that I have made full mental preparations."

"I have a thorough understanding of the consequences and how painful the process is."

“I saw it with my own eyes.”

Huo Youshan had a hidden meaning. She had seen with her own eyes how Evelin had lived those three years.

But Xiao He didn't know about this, he just thought Huo Youshan had seen Evelin testing the drug.

"The reactions when the young prince was testing the medicine were just the tip of the iceberg."

"It's not as easy as you see. You are a human being."

Huo Youshan stared at it so firmly that Xiao He's heart began to waver, but he still didn't let go.

He felt deep down that she would definitely regret it, so it would be better to persuade her to quit rather than causing trouble in the future.

"I'm not afraid of death."

"I come to see you with the resolution to die."

Huo Youshan was extremely firm. After he finished speaking, he slightly closed his pale lips, and a faint smile slowly appeared at the corners of his lips.

"But…"

"Your Highness will not agree."

Xiao He was shocked by Huo Youshan's righteousness. She never knew that girls could be strong and righteous to such an extent.

For example, Evelyn, and Huo Youshan.

In the past, when talking about girls, people would only say beautiful, gentle, kind and other labels with inherent impressions.

But starting with Evelin, he clearly witnessed her tenacity, courage, responsibility, and independence, which were not inferior to any other man.

From then on, in Xiao He's outlook on life, the words "girls can also stand on their own feet and have the courage to challenge" were forever engraved in his mind.

"Evelyn agrees."

Huo Youshan felt a little guilty when he said this and deliberately avoided Xiao He's gaze.

"Your Highness didn't inform me?"

Xiao He scratched his hair in confusion. After thinking about it, he realized that no one had informed him that there would be new test subjects joining the team.

"I have this to prove it."

Huo Youshan took out a mobile phone without a card inserted, played the pre-edited recording to Xiao He.

"Evelyn, I want to be a test subject."

"To atone for my sins."

"I accepted."

The sound of Huo Youshan's conversation with Evelin came from the recorder, and Xiao He was a little confused when he heard the word "atonement".

All I know is that the young prince seems to have a bad relationship with the two sisters of the Huo family, or even that they don't get along.

I don't know what happened during this period, but it seems like the situation has eased.

Huo Youshan pressed the end button at the right time, as she was afraid that she would be exposed if she continued listening.

This recording was prepared after her first conversation with Evelyn.

She didn't have any extra thoughts. She was just afraid that Evelyn and the people at the institute would not agree to let her be a test subject. That was all.

"In that case, I have no reason to refuse."

Xiao He thought for a long time and finally let go of his guard.

"Just girl, have you really thought it through?"

"Yes."

Huo Youshan nodded and looked at Xiao He seriously.

"Okay, let me thank you on behalf of all the staff of the institute."

As he spoke, Xiao He stood up and bowed to Huo Youshan.

"Mr. Xiao, you are so polite!"

"This is what I should do."

Huo Youshan was flattered and immediately stood up and helped Xiao He up.

"Girl, may I know why you made such a decision?"

Xiao He spoke hesitantly. As for the act of being a test subject, he believed that no one in this world would be willing to do so, except Evelyn who wanted to save Garland.

“This is me paying for the mistakes I made in the past.”

"This is the only way for me to atone for my sins."

Huo Youshan looked out the window and suddenly felt a sore nose.

After all, she was accepted by Evelyn and the research institute.

In this way, her guilty heart was relieved a little.

"It's just that I hope you can keep my affairs secret from others."

"And do experiments separately from Evelyn as much as possible."

"She probably doesn't want to see me."

Huo Youshan suddenly thought of something and asked again. If he ran into Evelin, he would be exposed.

After all, Evelyn had solemnly said that she would not be allowed to be a test subject.

"Okay, I promise you."

Xiao He nodded and said no more unnecessary words. He also didn't have the habit of getting to the bottom of things.

"When can we start?"

Huo Youshan turned her gaze to the various instruments. At this moment, her state of mind had undergone a subtle change, and she seemed not to be so afraid anymore.

"If you're really ready, I have a dose of the experimental drug right here."

"This was originally an experiment prepared for this afternoon, Your Highness."

Xiao He walked to a table not far away and picked up a dose of light yellow potion for Huo Youshan to look at.

"Let me do it, I'm ready."

"Today is Evelyn's birthday, let her spend it well with Garland."

Huo Youshan nodded, she didn’t have any good gifts to give Evelin.

Just give this to her as her birthday present.

Xiao He nodded, locked the door, and gave Huo Youshan a disinfectant injection.

Despite having done enough psychological preparation, the moment Huo Youshan lay on the cold laboratory table.

I still felt an unprecedented fear and felt so helpless that I didn't know where to put my hands.

She thought, maybe Evelin felt the same way as she does now, or even worse.

After all, he knew everything that was going to happen next, and Evelyn was tricked by him and forced onto the experimental table.

I think the helplessness she feels is something that ordinary people cannot understand.

"I'm going to get the injection."

"It's not too late to regret now."

Seeing Huo Youshan sweating from nervousness, Xiao He couldn't help but remind him.

"I'm fine, come on."

Huo Youshan shook his head, staring at the needle piercing into his vein in a self-torturing manner, watching the entire tube of medicine completely enter his body.

What followed was the pain she had never experienced in her life.

The intense pain and his senses were infinitely magnified. Huo Youshan felt like a drowning person, floating up and down.

Her mind went blank and the sounds were sometimes so loud that her eardrums hurt.

Sometimes she couldn't hear Xiao He calling her at all, and could only watch his mouth opening and closing in a daze.

Every time the potion merged with her blood, it brought her intense pain that felt like her body was being torn apart.

Her body was like being injected with chicken blood, the blood was flowing rapidly and the adrenaline was soaring.

She could clearly feel the medicine flowing through every part of her body.
