The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress

"???"

Daniel: "What's it doing?"

"As you can see," Qin Huaibei's face was grim, "if I'm not wrong, it's asking for praise."

Indeed, this tiger was asking for praise, Chloe felt it most clearly.

Encouraged by the tiger, she finally tried to reach out and touch the tiger's head.

Unexpectedly, upon touching it, she discovered many old scars on its head, along with many fresh wounds.

Chloe's fingers paused, slightly affected deep within her heart.

Forget it, she and the tiger are somewhat in the same boat.

Chloe gently patted the tiger’s head and said, "the people of the Viper Group are up to no good."

After saying that, she turned to look at Qin Huaibei and his companions, raising an eyebrow, "What are you standing around for? Sit."

They exchanged views and eventually found places to sit.

Daniel's gaze kept darting towards the tiger, still a little uneasy:

"Do you really want to train it?"

"Yes." Chloe reached out her hand, and the tiger obediently extended its paw in response, as docile as a sheep, "Do you think it's not tame?"

"…It is tame, and it doesn't seem to pose any threat to you, but..."

After considerable hesitation, Daniel finally relayed his concerns: "But won't the Viper Group benefit in the end with your effort in training it?"

Hearing this, Qin Huaibei also chimed in: "Indeed, isn’t what they want is a very obedient tiger?

"If the tiger did become obedient, wouldn’t the common folk be the ones who would ultimately suffer?"

This was indeed the case.

Chloe pulled back her hand, running her fingers through the tiger's fur, and looked at them, raising an eyebrow:

"Why do you assume I’m going to seriously train it?"

Qin Huaibei was taken aback: "Aren’t you?"

Chloe shot him a glance: "I am not as stupid as you think."

Of course, she knew the despicable men of the Viper Group never intended to use this beast for any good, so why would she sincerely train it.

"But we have to make a good impression, at least on the surface right?"

Otherwise, what if the man in the black robe accused her of making things difficult on purpose?

Seeing that Chloe's thoughts were the same as theirs, Daniel finally felt relieved: "That's good then. What's your plan?"

Chloe turned her head, exchanging glances with the tiger's green eyes, and said, "Let's start by giving it a name."

She patted the tiger's head, "I'll call you Wang. It's a good name."

Daniel was taken aback, "Who names a tiger Wang? Aren't you being a bit mean?"

Chloe: “…”

"You're the one who's 'Wang.' Get lost."

Unexpectedly being sworn at, Daniel was upset, "Wasn't it you who started it?!"

For the following few days, Chloe took her training with Wang very seriously.

Taking advantage of her official business, she would take her boss – a tiger – out for a stroll every day.

Wherever she went, soldiers would follow her vigilantly, but they dared not get too close.

Because Chloe didn't keep Wang on a leash, she walked ahead while Wang would obediently follow.

Wang’s figure was enormous and fierce, his footsteps echoed heavily as he walked down the street.

Apart from Chloe, Wang exhibited hostility towards everyone else. Anyone who dared to approach was warned off by Wang's threatening growl.

For a while, nobody at the camp dared to interfere with Chloe's work.

...

As always, Chloe cleared a spot in the camp and threw a ball of hay into the distance.

Wang would spring after the ball like a whirlwind and fetch it, showing no difference from a pet dog.

At a distance from them, several soldiers were watching them closely, their unrelenting gaze was as disgusting as bugs in a sewer.

Chloe found it annoying upon seeing this, so she decided to completely ignore them and devoted her attention to playing ball with Wang.

Meanwhile, Daniel hid in the bushes with a grass ball in his hand, staring at Wang intensely.

While Wang was busy fetching the ball, Daniel suddenly tossed the grass ball in his hand and whispered under his breath:

"Wang.... come here.... Wang"

Wang glanced at Daniel with the ball in his mouth, his gaze filled with contempt, blending with a sense of disdain.

Then without turning his head, Wang returned to Chloe with the ball in his mouth.

Daniel, taken aback: “!!!”

He was frustrated: "Why won't Wang pay attention to me!"

Chloe glanced at him:

"How many times do I have to tell you, his name is Wang, not Little Turtle!"

Daniel: "I don't care, you were the one who called him Little Turtle!"

Chloe: "… Pssh, serves you right that Wang doesn't like you."

Daniel was hit strongly by this statement.

He glanced at Wang, who was happily playing with Chloe, and then at the soldiers scared off by Wang's fierce aura.

He immediately bucked up.

Wang didn't hate him specifically, he just hated everyone equally except Chloe.

With this understanding, Daniel felt instantly better.

He crawled out of the bushes and walked up to Chloe, mumbling with a stalk of grass in his mouth:

"How long have we been here, when can we go back?"

Chloe pulled the grass stalk from Daniel's mouth and threw it, distastefully:

"Don't you feel gross?"

Daniel was surprised: "This is being cool!"

Chloe: "Stop copying scenes from prime-time dramas, thanks."

Daniel was taken aback and didn't talk to Chloe for almost half an hour.

Chloe didn't mind, she took a sip of water from Anderson, and continued to play with Wang.

During this time, she even taught Wang some basic commands like sitting down and shaking hands.

Qin Huaibei often jokingly told Chloe that she was treating a tiger like a dog, to which Chloe responded —better to train Wang to be a dog than to let him work for the Viper Group.

While they were happily enjoying themselves, Chloe was happily playing with Wang when a formal voice from a soldier came from behind:

"Ma'am."

Upon hearing this, Chloe instantly lost interest in playing with Wang and immediately changed her posture:

"Wang, sit."

Upon hearing the command, the tiger promptly sat down, all the while fixing the man in the black robe behind Chloe with a fierce stare, issuing threatening growls from its throat.

Chloe feigned seriousness and said,

"Don't be mean, Wang."

Hearing this, Wang reluctantly closed its mouth, but its glance at the man in the black robe was still quite daunting.

Seeing this, Chloe turned around and calmly said, "What brings you here, sir?"

The man in the black robe took a curious look at Chloe and then at Wang, laughing as he said,

"I came to inspect your training results over the past few days. From the look of things now, it seems there might indeed be some progress."

Chloe retorted,

"After all, I'm not your incompetent beast-master."
