Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 215: Engagement ring Part2

Tang Yue and Charlotte stared at the blue opal ring hanging inconspicuously on a silver chain around the wolf cub’s neck.

They had already settled in an inn, paying the room charge for the night.

Tang Yue was curious, along with other unsettled emotions in her heart, so she hurriedly wanted to take a look at what was there inside the ring.

Maybe some sort of explanation? 

She felt herself hoping that there would be some sort of explanation for all of this.

Without hesitating more, Tang Yue directly removed the chain from the cub’s head.

She then took the ring in her hand and looked at it casually.

But her eyes suddenly widened as she noticed that there was something peculiar about this ring.

The ring was a very simple silver ring, with a single blue opal stone in the center.

There was nothing else special about it, well that is… for the other races…

For the serpentine clan members, this particular blue-colored gem and a ring in this design were extremely special.

It was their clan’s typical engagement ring. 

Whenever a marriage is arranged in the serpentine clan, the groom traditionally gifts such a ring to the bride as a symbol of his love.

Tang Yue picked the ring and held it in between her thumb and index finger and looked at it bewilderedly as if she was staring at a deadly poisonous object.

Is this… Is this just a coincidence??? Her heart rate quickened and her brain throbbed.

She put the ring back down as if it was a hot sizzling object and clutched her head in confusion.

“What happened?” Charlotte asked, noticing her weird actions.

She wanted to give Tang Yue some privacy and was currently dealing with the naughty little fluff ball who was clearly not happy to be here.

Little Blue missed Tang Yue and Lotte and was very restless and anxious among the strangers in front of it. 

Charlotte quickly grabbed the fluff ball and fed him a couple of roasted meat pieces to at least calm him down temporarily.

Little Blue, of course, silently agreed to this truce and focused on the food in front of him.

Charlotte sighed in relief and turned towards Tang Yue who looked like the sky had just crumbled and fallen down around her.

At first, she didn’t want to interfere because this was clearly between her and Xander, but now she saw that Tang Yue looked extremely troubled and decided to ask her what happened.

Tang Yue looked at her and blankly nodded. What the hell was she even supposed to answer?

Was she supposed to tell her that the mad man had given her an engagement ring?

No… No… No… Such a thing was impossible!

He… He doesn’t care about me that much. There is no way that I mean anything to him… let alone… this…

She silently struggled with her own thoughts and wordlessly looked at Charlotte without any expression on her face, except for her terrified eyes.

Charlotte was not that familiar with the serpentine culture so she didn’t read into anything.

She simply walked over towards Tang Yue and silently sat next to her.

“Do you want to drip some blood on the ring and see what’s inside?” She slowly asked, patting her gently on the shoulder.

Gazing at her warm and kind clear blue eyes, Tang Yue snapped out of it and absentmindedly nodded.

Why was she getting disturbed like this? She should have just done this from the get-go!! 

This was just a spatial ring. That was it.

She hurriedly pricked her finger and dripped a few blood droplets on the ring.

But weirdly enough the blood didn’t seep inside the ring and it simply just rolled off and fell down on the inn’s carpeted floor.

Huh? Both Charlotte and Tang Yue were equally perplexed. Most artifacts responded to blood.

“Wait, Xavier asked you to wear it, remember?” Charlotte quickly suggested.

“Ah~ yes.” Tang Yue nodded and tried wearing it.

She gulped nervously and first placed the ring on her thumb.

The ring didn’t go in properly and likewise didn’t activate.

She then removed it slowly placed it on her index finger. 

As she tried it on each finger, her heart was ramming against her chest so loudly and she was feeling more and more anxious.

None of the fingers worked and Tang Yue finally placed the ring on her right-hand ring finger, which was their tradition’s engagement ring holder.

Charlotte had no idea what was going on. Why was she hesitating so much? The elf looked worried.

“Are you okay?” she asked Tang Yue again. “Put it on the last finger. I am sure it will work now.”

Charlotte awkwardly encouraged, though she didn’t sound very confident.

Having known Xavier for most of her life, she was very sure that the idiot had somehow screwed up things so the ring was probably not working.

Otherwise, why would it be so peculiar?

Tang Yue nodded, her brain was completely out of it, and she feebly put the damned ring on her ring finger.

Immediately, the very next second a warm glow emanated from the ring and it opened up.

Of course, only Tang Yue was able to feel it. So Charlotte worriedly asked. “What happened? Did it work?”

Tang Yue lifted her head and looked as if someone had just poured a bucket of freezing cold water on her.

“It opened.” She weakly replied.

She looked inside and there was a bunch of things even, and a lot of gold.

All of this made sense to her.

The notion that the cold-hearted jerk was doing this to help slightly with her predicament made sense.

But why? Why did it have to activate and open exactly when placed on my ring finger?

What does this mean? Was this also a coincidence? Am I just over-thinking?

What the hell??? You damned jerk!!!! What sort of sick joke is this? 

Why did you have to mess with me like this even when you are not with me?

Fuck!!!
