In a clear, pure glass vase were a few half-opened roses that the housekeeper had snipped from the back garden this morning. The slanted roses cast a stylish shadow on the delicate lace tablecloth.
Yu Huan sat at the dining table, cutting off a piece of cod that the housekeeper had just fried with a knife. Before eating, he did not forget to ask, "Why are there so many of my things in your room?"
The butler sat opposite Yu Huan, and Yu Huan asked him to sit there.
He no longer had the aura that had frightened Yu Huan in the bedroom just now. He sat there quietly with a good attitude, his eyelashes drooping. After thinking for a long time, he only gave a four-word explanation for his many crimes: "I can't help myself."
The surface of the fried cod is slightly golden, and the delicate meat reflects the light. Only the simplest seasoning is used, but it just brings out the deliciousness of the fish itself.
It’s quite delicious.
But she still had a stern face and asked, "Why is my kitten also with you? You had only been here for a few days, and I don't think I had ever spoken to you at that time..."
What she wanted to say was that if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation for collecting her things after just a few days of seeing her, she would really think he was a pervert.
"You said it, a lot." The butler suddenly laughed.
.
The butler's full name is Caspar Gerry. The Gerry family was a very famous family during the period when August was growing up, and it was prosperous to the point of being unrivaled.
It seems that there are some genes in their family's vampire blood that are superior to normal vampires. Every vampire born from the Gerry family is more outstanding than others in terms of intelligence, ability and appearance.
However, God is fair. Even such excellent genes have some defects to some extent.
They have difficulty conceiving offspring.
In this situation, Casper, who was born with extraordinary talents and was their only offspring, became their most precious and cherished being.
Casper, who was born with everything and was smarter than ordinary people, saw through the world too early.
He finds everything easier than the average person. If he tries to make progress, he can easily get the first place in his studies.
He was interested in the human world and devoted himself to researching it. Before long, he wrote a book that was circulated among the vampires.
He was taken into business by his family and soon tripled the family's accumulated wealth;
He competed for the position of vampire lord and soon became one of the outstanding candidates... but he gave up. He knew that he had no sense of responsibility and would only feel bored even if he ran for the position.
This unchallenging life made him lose interest in this world prematurely.
There was no doubt that his talent was greater than any previous member of the Gerry family. However, sometimes, the sooner one saw through the rules of the world, the more likely one was to feel lonely.
A life that is too boring can make smart people feel bored. Later, the members of the Gerry family could no longer bear the loneliness and chose to fall asleep one after another.
The first person who chose to sleep was Caspar.
At the time, his elders didn't understand why he wanted to stay in the cemetery at such a young age. But before long, they were also defeated by the dull and boring life and went to accompany him one by one.
There are no descendants of the Gerry family walking in the world, and the number of members active in the blood clan is getting smaller and smaller, until there is none left, leaving only fleeting memories like smoke to the vampires.
It is not a good thing for life to be too long.
Casper chose to sleep, but due to the nature of vampires, he would regain consciousness after a while.
At that time, he did nothing but lie there, waiting to fall asleep again.
Slowly, the memories of the extravagant and mysterious Gerry family faded under the weight of time. The aristocracy, once so sought after, became a stunning miniature of the past.
And the young master Casper, who was handsome and intelligent but always had a world-weary look on his face, has been sleeping under the tombstone for who knows how many years.
His mind is often blank, but he still knows something about what is happening above him.
He couldn't count how many years had passed since he fell asleep. The manor left by the Gerry family changed hands, and the castle also had a new owner - August, who had once competed with him for the position of vampire lord, and he still had some impression of him.
August fell in love with a human woman.
Caspar paid no particular attention.
But he insisted on burying himself in the back garden of the castle, so now he was forced to become August's neighbor. Even if he didn't pay attention, he still knew a lot of things.
They had a grand wedding, were happy and loving, and their laughter could often be heard in the castle... At that time, Caspar was a little jealous, wondering why their lives were so interesting.
But when he woke up from his deep sleep again, the woman he had been in love with had passed away. It was said that she was not in good health and had been ill, and her care had not been able to recover.
It was so fast that even Caspar, the bystander, was caught off guard.
Human life is as short as a spring and autumn in the vampire race, which passes before you have time to savor it; it is also as fragile as fallen leaves under the trees in autumn, which break into pieces with a light step.
For the first time, Caspar realized that the life he had wasted could be so precious to someone else.
He sank into a heavy melancholy, and the rustling autumn leaves piled on his tombstone added to the desolation.
At this moment, the gate leading to the back garden suddenly opened.
