The other person was clearly taken aback when they saw her, their gaze falling on the dress she was wearing and her overall demeanor.
He found it somewhat unbelievable. He knew she was beautiful, so he had the butler choose her and bring her home. However, her bloodline was indeed quite ordinary, which made him lose interest.
Until last night, when the butler told her that the other party had run away and even entered Lord Lutherius's house, she figured that the other party was probably doomed and decided not to bother with it anymore.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Lord Lursius's steward personally came to his door, bringing him gifts and specifically requesting the blood slave in front of him.
Even if the other party gave him gifts, he couldn't do anything about it, even if they just took the blood slave away.
…
The butler had already come out when he heard the commotion, and immediately stepped forward upon seeing who it was: "Lord Landon, what brings you here?"
Landon replied to the butler, "Thank you for the gift, Lord Lutherius. I have also prepared a gift for you."
"Please wait a moment, I'll go and fetch the master right away. Please have a seat." The butler invited Landon into the house and led them to the sofa.
Then he turned back and told Wange that the food he had prepared for her was being kept warm in the kitchen and that she should go get it herself. Then he went upstairs to find Luo Li.
Wan Ge knew that she would be safe even if she encountered vampires inside the castle, except when facing Lori. So she had no worries and went straight to the kitchen.
…
Landon waited a while before seeing Lori slowly walk down from the second floor. The man was dressed in magnificent aristocratic attire, and every move he made exuded nobility and elegance.
Once downstairs, Lori sat down opposite the other person and asked casually, "What is it?"
The person behind Landon immediately handed him the gift box, which Landon presented with both hands: "This is a box of mermaid tear pearls, a gift for you, sir, to thank you for the gift."
Lori glanced toward the kitchen and said calmly, "No need, you've already given me what I wanted."
Landon followed his gaze, but didn't see Wan Ge through the wall. He knew Wan Ge was there, but he was very puzzled: "Why would you want her, sir? She's just an ordinary human girl, and her blood tastes rather ordinary. What is it about her that interests you, sir?"
Lori took the red wine the butler handed him, took a sip, and then replied, "I like it."
Landon didn't ask any more questions. He had done what he wanted to do, so he immediately stood up and said, "This gift is something I really wanted to give to you, sir. Please accept it. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
"Mmm." Lori nodded lazily.
Seeing that he was willing to accept the box of pearls, Langdon was finally relieved and left with his butler.
…
After finishing her lunch, Wan Ge came out and saw Lori drinking. He was alone at the moment, with a box in front of him that looked exquisite and quite pretty.
What is this?
Lursius's gaze fell on her, and he slowly said, "If you're curious, you can open it yourself."
Upon hearing his words, Wan Ge immediately lost interest: "No need."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lori snapped her fingers, and the box in front of her slowly opened.
The crystal-clear, beautiful pearls were displayed before Wan Ge.
"What beautiful pearls." Looking at the beautiful pearls, Wan Ge felt that these pearls were obviously different from ordinary pearls. When she reached out to touch them, she could feel that they seemed to carry a faint magical power.
“These are mermaid tears,” Lori said, seeing that she seemed somewhat interested, and answered her question.
Wan Ge recalled the mermaids in this world. This world wasn't just inhabited by vampires; there were naturally other beings from mythology as well.
Mermaids are one of them, but their attack power is only average in the water, while their attack power is almost the same as that of an ordinary person when they leave the water.
But they happen to be very beautiful, or their tears turn into pearls, so many mermaids become traded items or prisoners for profit.
After the evening song was filled with the tears of a mermaid, she stopped looking at it.
"You don't like it?"
Wan Ge nodded: "The pearl of mermaid tears is usually obtained by forcing them to shed tears."
They were tortured and punished in various ways, all for the pearls on their bodies. Wange was particularly disgusted by such things, so she didn't like it.
Lori saw that he didn't like it and waved his hand, and the pearl in front of them disappeared.
Then he handed Wan Ge a glass of wine: "Want a drink?"
Wan Ge accepted the drink offered to her by the other person, watched him drink another glass, and at the same time pondered where her little villain was.
He gets drunk after just one sip; who knows what would happen if he took that much?
Lori noticed that she seemed to be thinking about someone, and tightened her grip on the wine glass slightly: "What are you thinking about?"
Upon hearing his voice, Wan Ge immediately snapped out of her daze and quickly shook her head: "It's nothing."
After saying that, he took a sip of the wine in his glass: "It tastes pretty good."
However, she only took two sips before putting the glass down: "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room now."
After Wan Ge finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave, but the other person immediately stepped forward, hugged her, and lowered his head to bite her shoulder.
The fangs pierced her skin, but the creature did not drink the blood; it seemed to be merely punishing her, causing her pain.
