Ring

Edgar had already left, and Wei Shenzhi realized that he was covered in cold sweat and his clothes were almost soaked.

In the end what happened? !When Christmas Eve came, he just kindly invited his friends out for a meal together, and then happened to meet his friend who had lost his mind, and then brought the friend home, and was insulted by his friends in various ways, and finally he was gnawed!

Originally, he was groped and teased all over his body by a man of the same sex, which should be his entanglement point; however, something supernatural happened later, he was touched, kissed, ate tofu, and so on. This is nothing compared to this. OK!

He can suddenly understand the reaction of the protagonist in those fantasy and supernatural movies when he finds out that his lover/friend/colleague/relative is not human.There is absolutely a scientific basis for Xu Xian to be frightened by Bai Suzhen!In reality, a vampire popped up and gnawed on him, and he almost fainted from fright; but Xu Xian, who was unprepared, suddenly found out that his wife was actually a big white snake, and he had to go to Yama to report it, okay? ! !

At this time, Edgar's training for several months finally paid off again.Wei Shenzhi was very glad that he did not jump off the building in a panic and escape, but politely expressed to the other party that since the other party opened a door to a new world for him, he needed to take a break to digest the fact that it was too explosive.

Then, the moment the other party closed the door and left, he felt that his calf was a little weak, and he fell to the ground with a "slap".

He sat there trembling for a long time, finally staggered to the side of the telephone, pressed a series of numbers tremblingly, and made an overseas call back to China.

The moment the phone was picked up, Wei Shenzhi turned around and saw his own reflection in the mirror.The clothes were messy and the hair was disheveled, and the collar of the shirt had been torn, exposing large areas of skin.However, the most shocking thing was the dried blood on the neck, and a dark red blood stain formed at the neckline.Coupled with the expression of being in shock, it was as if he had just narrowly escaped from the scene of a murder.

"Grandma..." Wei Shenzhi closed his eyes, "I seem to have encountered something terrible..."

…………

When Edgar walked out of the apartment, the rain had stopped.He smiled and recalled the look in Wei Shenzhi's eyes - terrified, puzzled, but not disgusted.

That's enough.

It's not very far from here to Fifth Avenue near his villa, so he didn't take a car and walked back.When passing by a remote alley, as expected, I saw that familiar figure.I saw Rice leaning against the wall with his arms folded, staring at him with extremely complicated eyes, as if he still hated iron for being weak.

"Would you like to walk with me?" Edgar seemed in a good mood, and even offered to invite him, "We haven't walked together for a long time."

"I thought you had recovered from the news of Hawthorne's death, but I didn't think you were really crazy." Rice shook his head, his eyes were calm, but he was very serious: "You drank his blood? when?"

"Didn't you follow us all the way to his apartment?" Edgar smiled, "Then you stayed in the living room and watched him for a long time. You saw what happened with your own eyes. Why ask me? "After speaking, he smiled and shook his head again, made a gesture of invitation to him, and once again invited the other party to walk with him.Then, regardless of how Rice reacted, he walked forward.

Rice had no choice but to follow him: "I have clearly warned you before, beware of people in the clan coming to make trouble. At this critical moment, you have a lot of troubles. Aren't you afraid that the Bathory family will target Wei...Wei... ..."

"Wei Shenzhi. You can call him Wei." This guy Rice can't even pronounce Italian names, Edgar no longer expects him to know how to pronounce Oriental names.

"Okay, Wei. He's had a close relationship with you. The Bathory family... will come to him sooner or later, and then play tricks on him. They have been looking for you all these years. The European countries of Asia, Africa and Oceania They probably have already finished looking for places where there are relatively few people of ethnic origin. As for Europe, the power of the Holy See is too strong, and they also hope that you will not choose this kind of place to settle. Therefore..."

"I know."

"Then you are still with that oriental..."

"Back then I sold the entire blood clan to the Holy See, so you had no choice but to make three chapters with the Vatican, and you must not let human beings get involved in the battle between blood clans, blood clans and the Holy See at will. The Patriarch of Bathory has sworn, the whole clan If anyone from above and below violates it, they will be tortured by the curse."

"Well, even if you say that, that Easterner thinks so?" Rice strode up to him, and spread his hands at him, "How could you be so reckless and expose your true identity to him?" ? If he reveals this matter to the clergy, see what you will do!"

In fact, what Rice said was not wrong at all.Almost all of Edgar's power was sealed, but any member of the Holy See who knew some prayer spells could make him feel uncomfortable.But Edgar didn't care about these at all.He smiled and looked at the clouds in the sky, and said softly: "He won't, because I just confirmed one thing."

Rice, who watched all the way, instantly had the illusion that he was watching a soap opera at eight o'clock.Sure enough, Edgar bent his lips:

"He likes me."

…………

Half a month later, the entrance to the lobby of the Swan Hotel.

This is the annual gathering of the IT industry in Silicon Valley. As long as you are successful in Silicon Valley, you can receive invitations to the banquet—whether you are a software engineer, computer theorist, business manager, or even a tender investor.

It is precisely because of these various people that the invitation card that serves as the entry key is so precious.If you are lucky enough to chat with those big names in the information technology industry, you will benefit a lot, if not get their appreciation-you know that most rich people are not full of fat.Under the glamorous appearance, there are unknown sweat, pain, joy, and the truth learned in the process of struggle.

Such an occasion naturally cannot do without the presence of photographers and reporters.Watching the shiny and luxurious business sports cars come to a slow stop, the woman in a bright dress and the man in a black suit gracefully waved and smiled at the flashing lights.

A silver Audi slowly stopped at the edge of the red carpet, too conspicuous among those overly expensive and luxurious sports cars.Just when everyone was guessing which VIP who had been invited would take an ordinary Audi to attend such an important party, the driver's door opened.

The orange-red sunset made his slightly long black hair unexpectedly soft, and also cast a touch of warm color on his side face.His pupils are as dark and bright as obsidian, and the slightly raised corners of his eyes add a touch of romantic and uninhibited flavor to this gentle face, making people think of the gifted scholars in ancient oriental paintings for a moment.The light-colored thin lips are slightly raised, almost like white jade under the light of the flash.

The crowd was in an uproar—isn't this the person in charge of Claire's laboratory who jumped from Magi to Inspur, created a miracle of release with the "Silver Shield" product, defeated Sophos, and acquired GCP and Curtis? !And his feats don't stop there.It has been less than a year since he came to Inspur, and apart from the "Silver Shield" accident, he also led the development of many medium-sized software and put them into use.Therefore, Inspur has also taken a considerable share in the North American market.All the achievements he has achieved today have surprised the old customer, magi president Roska, who originally thought he was just a programmer.

Although he was also invited to this ball in previous years, his worth and status are different now.The flash followed immediately, almost blinding people's eyes.Wei Shen felt displeased, but on the surface he still had a decent smile.At the same time, the door of the passenger seat was also politely opened by the waiter, and the well-dressed Selina walked out.Wei Shenzhi took his female companion's hand and walked into the hotel chased by flashing lights. He sighed softly when he got to the elevator.

This is what is called high society.It's not about celebrities walking the catwalk and the royal family going out, so why make it so earth-shattering?

"Aren't you the young master of Inspur Enterprises?" The elevator door opened, and Selina was holding—or we could say, pulling——Wei Shenzhi's arm, and the high heels clicked on the marble floor. "I thought you were used to these things."

"I have to participate once a year, but I'm not used to it every year." Wei Shenzhi followed the waiter into the door of the banquet hall with ease.Looking at a scene of cups and cups intertwined, the fragrance of clothes and shadows on the temples, the smell of men's and women's perfumes mixed in the air to form an almost rotten smell.

"Boring." He commented, but his eyes subconsciously searched among the chatting crowd.Until his eyes locked on the tall and slender figure of the brown-haired man, and then his eyes became very tangled, as if he didn't know whether he should go up to talk to him, or avoid this guy from a distance.

Selina tugged at his arm and walked in Edgar's direction.The footsteps were so thumping that they wanted to pierce the floor with their heels.Wei Shenzhi watched with a headache as the swift and resolute woman dragged him towards Edgar, but Selina suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Edgar just casually leaned against the bar, shaking the rose-red liquid in the glass with his white-gloved fingers.Then, a pretty and slender figure stopped by his side and started talking with him.The woman was wearing a red shoulderless dress, and her fair skin was as warm and alluring as suet jade carved by the light.The white lotus root arms are covered with black lace, the long black hair is carefully coiled, and there are a few slender hairpins between the temples.Broken gold tassels hang down from the top of the hairpin, trembling slightly with the woman's movements.

The two recognized the woman in an instant - Yumi Kondo, the manager of Snow Flower's North American branch.

Feeling the two gazes on her back, Kondo Yumi glanced back indiscriminately, sipped the red wine in the glass, and looked at Edgar with a half-smile: "I seem to be regarded as a thorn in the side. "

"Who told you to dress up so beautifully today, my friend." Edgar smiled sincerely, took her hand, and kissed her lightly.

"How can I enjoy such treatment?" Yumi Kondo pulled her hand back with a smile, "Should I go back and pack my bags and flee back to Japan? It's not something worth celebrating to be included in the list of enemies by Manager Wei."
