Chapter 9: Invitations

"Mr. Fan, Lord Viscount offered 1000 gold coins to cover the banquet hall. Look..."

"..."

The silence on the other end of the phone made the hotel manager uneasy, and he whispered: "... If you are not satisfied with the Suliman branch, there are actually other good and affordable hotels, if you need..."

"No, thank you." Su Shi said, "Please give it to Mr. Baran."

That night, Su Shi received an invitation from Balan.

Su Shi propped his face with one hand, looking at the beautifully designed invitation card.The invitation was placed on the corner of the table by the maid.The white gauze curtain on the side of the desk was blown by the wind, and kept opening, and the cold breath of rainwater sneaked in.Su Shi stretched out his hand, pressed his fingers on the invitation card, and pulled it in front of him.

Folded black invitations, plated with silver coats of arms, tied with a black ribbon.

Su Shi tore off the ribbon, opened the invitation, and the handwritten invitation immediately exuded a faint fragrance of ink... It was an invitation for a "feast" tonight——

"At eleven o'clock at night, please go to the "banquet", the banquet hall of the Salimand Hotel."

Did he wish he had missed the party, or had he rushed to the party and appeared in embarrassment?

Su Shi raised his hand and looked at his watch: 10:30.

Click—this is the sound made by the chair being bumped and pushed suddenly. Su Shi casually picked up the coat on the hanger, and walked towards the stairs while wearing it.

Huh huh huh—the sound of hurried footsteps sounded on the stairs soon, and then the maid's voice came from downstairs:

"Mr. Mino...it's raining outside..."

The suspended car runs in the night, and the dipped beam lights up the raindrops one after another like falling silver needles.The rain slid through the car window, and the light yellow light in the car fell on Su Shi's face, making his slender eyebrows and drunken green eyes flash the light of melancholy and expectation...

The vestibule of Suliman was silent, and the banquet hall was pitch black.

Thick black velvet cloth covers everything in the hall airtightly.

Su Shi stretched out his hand to touch the cold glass door, and slowly pushed it open with a stroking gesture, and the sound of music and faint laughter trickled out...

What appeared before him was a wall of pearls.

No, it's not a pearl wall, but a "ji"-shaped walkway composed of pearl curtains strung together.The overlapping pearl curtains make everything in the hall appear shadowy.The strings of the harp are lightly plucked, and the singing like the sound of nature is like a clear river flowing quietly...

Su Shi put one hand in his trouser pocket, brushed the strings of pearls with the other hand, and walked inward along the winding pearl aisle.The last two strings of bead chains swayed and collided at the fingertips, making a warm bumping sound that is unique to pearls.The people in the hall seemed to be attracted by the unexpected sound, and they all turned their heads to look at the door—although Su Shi arrived at the banquet "on time", it seemed that the banquet had already started—the faint white smoke swirling around Among them, the pale faces of the blood races become hazy and beautiful. They wear light white robes, bare feet, women wear golden belts around their waists, and vine-woven flower crowns on their heads. They are like ancient Greek myths. The fairy in the forest, looming in the white mist coming out of nowhere...

Su Shi in a suit is like a mortal who has strayed into a fairyland by mistake.

Su Shi didn't seem to feel that he was out of place, he pushed through the fog and stepped into it.While looking around restrainedly, he strolled inward, and his eyes flicked across faces... He seemed to be looking at everyone, but it seemed like no one was looking at them.

...he seems to be looking for someone.

The vampires avoided him one after another. According to Balan Sisera's instructions, no one answered him. They ignored him as much as possible, but couldn't help but look at him.

His movements became urgent.He fanned away the cloud of mist that floated in front of his eyes, and strode forward, his eyes flicked over each face as if out of focus, looking dazed and eager.But from time to time, I look backwards and look around, worrying about what I missed.

"Deng Leng Leng—"

A string of meaningless strings came from the second floor, and the music in the hall stopped at some point.The fog dissipated layer by layer, and the vampires in white robes all stopped moving.

The turntable hanging from the dome began to rotate, and the petals under the sieve fell into a shower of flowers. As the fog cleared, the figure of the young man sitting on the fence on the second floor playing the small harp gradually became clear.

Like Su Shi, he wore a suit... no, more precisely, it was a dress, revealing his status above these blood races invisibly.

He casually fiddled with the rhythmless notes with his pale hands with gold-plated nails, while lowering his head and casting his cold eyes on the human males in the hall.The vertical and horizontal fog seems to be consciously receding to both sides... Su Shi raised his face and looked for the reputation.

The crystal chandelier illuminated his light green pupils, and those eyes seemed like sunlight passing through the shallow leaves in the forest.

Balan Sisera was slightly taken aback.

He stuffed the little golden harp in his hand to Louis who was standing aside, got up and stood on the white fence, looking down at Su Shi.Immediately, he leaped lightly like a cat, as if he had just disappeared into the air, and then appeared on the ground—he stood up from the posture of kneeling on one knee, and walked towards Su Shi step by step.

He pinched Su Shi's chin and said:

"My takeaway has arrived."

Su Shi looked at Balan Sisera, standing in front of him was an overly handsome young man, so handsome.He has a pale face with a cold expression, but he has short hair with a soft curvature. Most of the strands of short hair are gentle and large arcs, except for a curl in front of his forehead...

"You are Balaam-Sisera?"

The cold fingers slid across Su Shi's chin like tiny snakes.

Balaam didn't answer his question, but only raised the corners of his lips slightly, the tip of his tongue slipped between his teeth, and pointedly raised before retracting.He slowly tilted his head and stared at Su Shi, as if looking for an angle to kiss him.

The pale "fairies" around them gathered around Balan like ghosts without a sound.

These people, without exception, have black hair and black eyes.

Su Shi's body muscles tensed up.

As if a cat was teasing a mouse, the canine teeth on Balan's lips became sharper little by little, and his dark pupils glowed red...

The crystal chandelier above the head flickered as if the power supply was unstable. Every time it flickered, the eyes staring at Su Shi turned red... Just as Balan slowly opened his mouth, the crystal chandelier suddenly went out.

At the moment when the darkness fell, Su Shi saw one pair after another of eyes being infected crimson.

In the darkness, like a leopard suddenly attacking, Balan bit Su Shi's neck.

Vampires have strength and speed far exceeding that of humans. Balan obviously did not expect to be blocked by Su Shi—Su Shi covered his mouth with his right hand, and pinched his cheeks with his fingers. The huge force not only stopped Baran Lan's approach also deformed that handsome face slightly.

This made Balaam angry.

Balaam clasped his arm, turned his face and bit his palm.

The sharp canine teeth were deeply embedded in Su Shi's palm.

Su Shi's whole body went numb, and the numbness of being bitten by a poisonous snake quickly spread from the palm of his hand down his arm.

If he knew what it felt like to be bitten by a vampire, Su Shi would never take the risk.

Warm blood gushed out of the wound, dripped from the palm, and landed on the dark marble floor.The excellent sweet aroma seemed to ripple in the air, and the vampires surrounding the two couldn't help approaching silently.

Balan's hand gripped Su Shi's wrist with astonishing force.

In the darkness, there was the sound of swallowing blood, and every blood race was watching this scene clearly.
