Chapter 1 Compromise

Next Chapter

Qin Man opened her eyes, and her eyes were full of bright red stinging that she couldn't open her eyes a little. She lowered her head and closed her eyes, slowing down her eyes, which had become very sore due to the bright light.

After a while, when the soreness was gone, she slowly opened her eyes and looked around, and there was nothing but her in the endless scarlet world.

Qin Man found that the ground under his feet was very soft, like stepping on a sponge soaked in water. She frowned as she looked at the unusually viscous dark red liquid beneath her feet, which clinged to the soles of her shoes, immobilizing her.

Just as Qin Man was squatting down, trying to figure out what this dark red slime was, a warm wind suddenly blew behind her, and the air swept by the wind was filled with a thick, salty, wet and pungent fishy smell. In a trance, Qin Man seemed to hear the sound of the whirring wind, which seemed to be mixed with the sound of rolling waves.

Qin Man stood up and turned her head to look behind her, and found that the blood waves about two feet high in the distance were surging towards her. She struggled in a panic to get rid of the restraints under her feet, but the dark red slime was too sticky, and no matter how hard she tried, there was no sign of loosening under her feet.

Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, Qin Man could only stand helplessly in place, letting the surging waves of blood swallow her up and drown her.

The moment the blood surged, the fishy plasma instantly filled Qin Man's mouth and nose, squeezing out the little air left in his lungs. In the silent shout, Qin Man was completely buried by the turbulent waves, slowly fell into the depths of the dark waves, and finally disappeared completely.

"Help... Help..."

"Knock"

Opposite the oversized white double bed, the quaint wooden clock hanging on the beige wall dutifully rang at seven o'clock. The thick sound of the bell passed through the eardrums, waking up Qin Man, who was trapped in the depths of the blood wave.

Qin Man struggled to open his eyes and woke up from his scarlet nightmare. She opened her mouth wide and breathed in the fresh air in the air, Fang Cai's dream was too real and terrifying, and the suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe had not completely dissipated from her senses.

Sticky sweat soaked through Qin Man's nightgown, and the heat in her heart made her feel uncomfortable. She replaced the sweat-soaked sheets and threw them on the side of the bed, then took a clean dressing gown from the closet and walked into the bathroom.

Qin Man closed his eyes and lay in the warm bathtub dripping with rose essential oil, and his originally swelling and aching head was instantly relieved a lot. She unconsciously rubbed the white camellia pendant around her neck, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but pull a wry smile. How long has it been since you had these dreams? It's been so long that Qin Man has almost forgotten how he survived in the first place.

After Qin Man cleaned up and tidied up the room, she opened the door and saw Smo standing at the door of her room in a ball.

Simo is a piebald snake more than two meters long, Qin Man got lost in the primeval forest and was accidentally bitten by the young Simo. Worried that Smoke, who had fainted after drinking his own blood, would be eaten by other animals, Qin Man brought it back from the forest and kept it by his side.

Qin Man squatted down and patted him affectionately, like a puppy, he kept rubbing his head on his face. Small is almost in the peeling period, and he is squeamish like a child. She's been sticky these days, and she has to follow everywhere she goes.

Mama Ye downstairs prepared breakfast as usual, and she looked up to see Qin Man coming down from upstairs. His face turned cloudy and immediately sank, and even the action of putting the dishes and chopsticks was a lot rougher.

Qin Man pleaded for help and looked at Ye Jinchen, who was holding a newspaper in his hand and sitting leisurely at the dining table drinking tea.

After the eyes of the two met, Ye Jinchen looked down as if nothing had happened, lowered his head and continued to taste the morning tea comfortably, looking at the morning newspaper in his hand. The two in front of him are living ancestors, and he can't afford to mess with them.

Qin Man gritted his teeth and looked at Ye Jinchen, who couldn't be saved, and muttered secretly in his heart: This damn bastard, it's all this time, and I don't know how to speak out to help her.

The only one who was not affected by the sword light and sword shadow was probably only Small, who couldn't see the situation clearly. Smo stretched his neck, slowly slid to Ye Jinchen's side gracefully, and then lowered his noble head like charity, and gently tapped Ye Jinchen's arm, which was regarded as saying good morning to him.

The corners of Ye Jinchen's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly slipped back, quietly coiling at Mama Ye's feet, obediently waiting for the feeding of Smo. This dead snake, one day he will eat it in snake soup.

Maybe it was because Si Mo's sense of smell was extraordinarily keen, or maybe Ye Jinchen's intentions were too obvious, and Si Mo, who sensed the danger, stared at Ye Jinchen vigilantly, and kept baring his teeth and spitting out letters at him.

You are a man, it is a snake, you are a man, it is a snake. Don't worry about things that can't speak, Ye Jinchen turned his head, and he couldn't see it out of sight and babbled in his heart.

"Miss, breakfast is ready. My wife is old, my health is not good, and I can't be stimulated. I won't go to today's inspection, let Xiao Chen accompany you alone. ”

Qin Man pouted helplessly and looked at Mama Ye with a gloomy face, and sighed deeply in his heart. Every time I go to the laboratory to check my body, the air pressure at home becomes extremely depressed and low like a typhoon passing through.

"Mama, don't worry, I'm fine, I don't hurt." Qin Man held Mama Ye's hand tightly across the table, shook his head and smiled comfortingly.

Qin Man saw that the low air pressure around Mama Ye showed no signs of improvement, and then kicked Ye Jinchen, who was gloating behind the newspaper, under the dining table.

"Grandma, Miss has me with you, you can rest assured." Ye Jinchen put down the newspaper in his hand, looked up at Mama Ye, and promised it very seriously.

Qin Man looked at Ye Jinchen's rather cautious appearance, and a nameless fire instantly surged into his heart. She couldn't figure out whether this evil fire was aimed at Ye Jinchen or herself.

Mama Ye listened to Ye Jinchen's words, and gave him an angry look, of course she knew that Ye Jinchen would definitely take good care of Qin Man, but did she care about this?

"You said that you have suffered so much before, and now that life is finally better, what experiments are you going to do. Is it bad to do this now? What's more, there are so many people who can be used to do experiments, why are you so stubborn, you have to do it yourself? With such a noble status, how can you experiment with yourself? ”

Mama Ye was like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and the dissatisfaction that had been piled up in her heart for a long time was vented to Qin Man at once.

At this time, Smo, who was enjoying breakfast at the table, finally realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere. It folded its tail in an effort to compress its presence, and quietly left the center of the eruption and slipped into the back garden while everyone was not looking.

"Forget it, no matter what I say, you won't listen. I don't care about this in the future, you can do whatever you like. ”

Mama Ye ignored the tasteless food on the table, and after talking to herself, she put down the dishes and chopsticks and went upstairs directly to her room.

Qin Man looked at Mama Ye with red eyes before leaving. Indeed, as Mama said, there are many people who can be used for experiments, and she does not have to do it. But the experiments they did were too risky, and she couldn't trade other people's lives for the low pitiful possibility in order to satisfy her own selfish desires.

"Grandma looks like a child the older she gets, so you don't have to take her words too seriously." Ye Jinchen said to Qin Man, who had not let go of his brows since he came out of the passenger seat.

"Why, I know that Mama is just feeling sorry for me. By the way, what's going on on the company's side lately? ”

Qin Man looked at the scenery that kept flashing outside the car window, and there was an unspeakable loneliness in his heart. The sun rises and the moon sets, and the stars move. Time is precious to ordinary people, but for people like them, it's just a drop in the ocean. She was a little tired of these endless days.

"There have been a lot of outsiders who don't know the rules in Los Angeles lately, and there have been attacks for several nights in a row. The company's side has been relatively strong in inspections, and so far no homicides have been found. Xiao Kun's side has also sent more manpower, I think it shouldn't be a big problem. ”

"These pickled things, desperately trying to expose themselves to people. I don't think about it, if we really expose people, how can we still have a foothold in this world. ”

Qin Man doesn't like these 'kind' like clowns jumping off beams, constantly jumping up and down and causing trouble everywhere.

Ye Jinchen agreed with Qin Man's statement very much, although the vampire clan was gifted and immortal. But after all, the ability to reproduce is far inferior to that of humans. If the world could be conquered by force alone, wouldn't this world have long been covered with jungles and beasts?

"Xiao Chen, lately, I have been feeling anxious for some reason. After the examination, you can accompany me to the 'Night Home'." ”

It took Qin Man hundreds of years to integrate vampires into the normal life of the human race, and she did not agree and would not allow anyone to ruin the results of her painstaking business for so many years.
