kiss the night

"The Popular Benchmark" is a global series of music venues. The guests at each show are different, but the standard has always been online. Even in the past few years, [-]-line singers released new songs at such music venues, and eventually became popular and dominated the "Billboard" "Phenomenon-level event, it can be seen that TPB has indeed confirmed its name "popular vane".

Under Jesse's nagging science explanation, Yan Zhao, an Asian from the East, also looked forward to the event a little more. For this reason, he deliberately adjusted the eating time this week forward by one day.

It was Anna who was sent to the villa that day. In fact, Yan Zhao found that Anna seemed to come to the villa more times than the rest of the blood slaves, and he didn't know whether she volunteered or what.All in all, this woman who is older than Yan Zhao always seems to be unexpectedly nice to him, even when drawing blood, she will take the initiative to ask for more blood. And can't fill the stomach.

This made it difficult for Yan Zhao to resist. He could only do his best to help Anna. For example, when Anna came to the villa, Yan Zhao would always pack some fresh and high-quality ingredients and give them to Anna—he actually I would like to give Anna some financial relief directly, but it is a pity that Yan Zhao himself is still a student, and Laurentine will not allow him to take part-time jobs. How much savings.

This made Anna look a little different among the many blood slaves arranged for him by Laurentine.

"Good evening, sir." Anna is wearing a long plain dress today, with her hair neatly coiled up on the back of her head, she should be walking on the road like a lady from some family, not a slave dedicated to vampires, "I I heard that you moved your eating time earlier, is it because you have any other plans for the day?"

Hiko nodded.

Anna laughed, and she put a finger on her lips, and approached Yan Zhao: "Shhh, don't tell me, let me guess... Oh! Is it a music scene that will be held this weekend?"

"Yes." Yan Zhao smiled a little. He watched Anna walk into the room specially vacated for blood collection, and thanked, "I'm sorry to bother you today."

Anna's whole blood collection process was very fast, thanks to her cooperation.

When Yan Zhao drank the blood in the cup with his eyes closed, Anna was still sitting opposite him, her kind eyes were always looking in Yan Zhao's direction, full of appreciation and pleasure: "Sir, I want to reveal something to you Internal information, oh, you can listen to it as a joke, after all, I don’t have any accurate information channels.”

"What?" Yan Zhao put down his glass. He was actually a little tired today, but he didn't want to dampen Anna's interest, so he politely made a curious expression.

The female driver who brought Anna has returned to the outer courtyard of the villa. With the strength of human bare hands, there is no way to hurt a vampire, even if it is an ignorant newborn. She is used to waiting outside for the end of the conversation between Yan Zhao and the blood slave. On the other hand, His Royal Highness did not give any instructions.

"I heard about the guest list for this music scene, and there is a super popular star among them."

Under normal circumstances, ThePopularBenchmark does not announce their guest list in advance. They are accustomed to using this method to maintain a sense of mystery and create gimmicks, so that the audience will go to their brand instead of a specific star.

I don't know how Anna knew about such gossip, so Yan Zhao curiously asked Anna about the source of the news.

"It's my, er, deceased cousin. I have contacted his former co-worker. He said that he was in charge of the construction of the music scene and saw their schedule by chance." Anna shook her head and looked up at Yan Zhao, "But that's not the point, sir, don't you want to know who that celebrity is? I can guarantee that her popularity is well-known all over the country, and she was still on tour a while ago."

Yan Zhao followed her words and asked, "Who is it?"

Anna approached Yanzhao's ear mysteriously, and whispered a name that was familiar to Yanzhao in his ear...

Catherine.

Yan Zhao leaned back abruptly to distance himself from Anna. He can guarantee that when he heard Catherine's name, his brain went blank for a moment—even now he already knew his identity as a vampire , the memory of Catherine still made him feel conflicted.

"Sir?" Anna was taken aback, her eyebrows curled down, "I'm sorry, sir, I shouldn't be so close to you, I overstepped."

That day until after Anna left, Yan Zhao was still thinking about Catherine. To be honest, he was no different from the ostrich who buried his head in the sand. He was getting along with Laurentine In those days, I have been avoiding some memories, including the crazy woman who once appeared in the dungeon. She was once held in Laurentine's arms and gnawed the blood on her neck as punishment, and she was also locked up mercilessly. Awaiting judgment in a dark and filthy dungeon.

Yan Zhao didn't know what would happen to her in the end.

He thought, no matter what, he should take a look at that woman, at least to convince Yan Zhao that the vampire prince did not murder human life as he said... This will make Yan Zhao feel more at ease.Although he has not yet considered clearly whether this peace is for himself or for Laurentine.

He kept thinking about it, so that when Jesse drove him to the music scene the next day, Yan Zhao was still immersed in his own world.

"Hey Zhao, why have you been distracted tonight?" she asked.

Yan Zhao came back to his senses, very embarrassed: "I'm sorry, what were you talking about just now?"

Jessie curled her lips: "I just said, my sixth sense tells me that there is a car following us behind us, I mean, from the school road, you see." She looked to the rear mirror.

Yanzhao also looked at the past together. His eyesight was much stronger than that of ordinary humans. In such a high-speed moving car, he still saw the face behind the windshield from a long distance—not Gilbert, but It's also a little familiar, he thought, he should have seen him in the Red Moon Castle.

That's Laurentine's man.As the vampire prince said, he did send people to follow Yan Zhao.

"Really? But I remember that it wasn't this model that was with us just now, although it's a bit similar." Yan Zhao decided to fool around for Laurentine.

"Really?" Jessie frowned, but thought about it quickly, "Forget it, it's just an old pickup truck like ours, you can tell it's a poor student at a glance, it's useless for them to look for us, we're clean , isn’t it Yan Zhao?”

"Ah."

The pickup truck that Jessie was driving was given to her by her father. It was a bit old, so the speed of the two of them was not fast. His hands shook wave after wave.

The sound was so loud that it made Yan Zhao's ears numb.

He thought he finally understood why Laurentine had asked him that day if he really liked music scenes at all—no vampire really liked music scenes, and their excellent hearing was a torture in this case.

Jesse rushed into the crowd as soon as she entered the scene. What this little girl like a sunflower lacks most is enthusiasm.

Amidst the noise, Yan Zhao suddenly felt a strange feeling, as if a very thin needle had penetrated into his head, causing a burst of nervous dizziness.

He subconsciously touched his pocket, which contained a silver dagger, which was a self-defense item that Laurentine forced him to carry—silver weapons are indeed very lethal to vampires, because the wounds they cause are not easy heal.

I hope I won't have a chance to use it today, Yan Zhao thought.

"Who will be our next guest?" The host stood on the stage enlivening the atmosphere, "Everyone knows her name. Five years ago, her song became popular all over the world, and until today she still..."

Yan Zhao already knew who the guest was, if Anna was not mistaken... Wait, something seemed to match up in his mind.

Anna once said that Yan Zhao looked very much like his dead brother, but when she mentioned the source of the news that day, she suddenly became a cousin... Of course Yan Zhao didn't think that Anna would forget a dead relative , so why on earth is she lying?
