Chapter 150
There were still customers in the store at this time. At the smell of barbeque mixed with the smell of some stir-fried vegetables in the shop, Xi Ning covered his nose with his hand.
The protagonist’s name was Jian Yue. He was wearing a mask and was busy serving customers in the shop. He looked up and saw Xi Ning standing outside.
The subtle attraction between the same race made Jian Yue directly see through Xi Ning’s identity. This was the third vampire he had seen beside himself at his age.
The plate he was holding almost fell down. The other two vampires were still in the kitchen in the back. He hurriedly put the plate away, wiped his hands on his apron, and walked out.
Xi Ning pretended to be wary and scared and took a step back.
Jian Yue looked at Xi Ning and tentatively said, “Don’t be nervous, so you are……. right? Why are you here alone? Do you live near here?”
He thought there were only three vampires in this city.
Xi Ning moved his lips and said, “I just woke up from the cemetery…… there is nowhere for me to go.”
Just woke up from the cemetery…… Jian Yue saw that Xi Ning’s clothes didn’t fit well, and he thought of a lot from this sentence alone. He immediately felt sympathy for Xi Ning and beckoned Xi Ning to come in. “If you want, you can come in here first.”
It’s getting late. If this lone vampire couldn’t find a place to hide, he could easily get injured or be spotted.
It was not the first time Jian Yue picked up a vampire. He originally only knew a much older male vampire. Later, he occasionally met a female vampire chased by a werewolf, which was the heroine. Later, three of them opened this shop together.
He always felt that he was quite accurate in seeing through people, and compared to vampires, some humans were more dangerous and should be guarded against more.
The last customer in the store got up and left. Jian Yue’s girlfriend, the vampire Wen Xue, poked her head out of the kitchen and shouted, “Xiao Yue?”
Xi Ning’s gaze passed by Jian Yue to Wen Xue, who was looking back, with shock in his eyes as if he couldn’t believe that there was someone of the same race here. He hesitated and nodded.
Jian Yue gave him a friendlier smile and led him into the store.
The other vampire went out today. Only Wen Xue and Jian Yue were there. Wen Xue had walked out of the back kitchen and looked at Xi Ning timidly.
Jian Yue asked Xi Ning to sit down first. He went to tidy everything outside the store, then closed the store door, and took Wen Xue to sit opposite Xi Ning.
“My name is Jian Yue, and this is Wen Xue.” He briefly introduced himself and Wen Xue and then asked Xi Ning. “What is your name?”
Xi Ning told him his name, and then used the identity given by the system, saying that he was sealed away by his relatives and buried in the ground, but he came out of the coffin today and came all the way here.
Jian Yue said that he and Wen Xue were vampires who moved to this city last year. If Xi Ning couldn’t find a place to go immediately, he could live in the store temporarily. There was a small room behind the kitchen.
Xi Ning could also help in the store if he wanted to. They were short of staff recently, and their salary was paid on a daily basis.
Xi Ning was very moved and couldn’t help thanking him sincerely. He noticed that Wen Xue was not very friendly to him. Sure enough, she took Jian Yue to the back kitchen and wanted to speak to him alone.
Wen Xue was different from Jian Yue. She was a pure vampire. She could smell the fresh blood on Xi Ning, and it didn’t look like animal blood.
“We don’t know about his background. What should we do if he causes trouble outside and involves us?“ Wen Xue didn’t want to let Xi Ning stay here. “Make him leave, or……or just let him stay overnight.”
Jian Yue thought about it more carefully while calming Wen Xue. “Don’t worry, I’ll ask him first.”
Jian Yue feels that Xi Ning was after all the same race as them. This city was so big, it was not easy to meet one, but he also had his own bottom line.
He returned to the table and asked Xi Ning bluntly, “Have you sucked human blood before you came?”
Xi Ning was unprepared, he panicked for a moment and said truthfully, “Yes, but I didn’t kill him…… I’m just too hungry.”
He was buried in the ground for decades. Of course, he would be very hungry when he came out. Jian Yue did not ask anymore, only saying that if there were any unusual news reports these days, he would immediately drive Xi Ning away.
Wen Xue had always drunk animal blood to survive. She raised a golden retriever. The dog would not die if she took a little blood every day, and it could help her to resist her hunger.
The other vampire who was not in the shop had raised a human lover who knew his real identity. In short, as long as Xi Ning didn’t kill anyone or cause any trouble, he could stay here.
“You drank human blood before. It should last for a while.” Since Jian Yue planned to give Xi Ning a chance, he said very intimately, “I recommend you to raise a larger pet. If the salary during this period is not enough, you can also borrow from me.”
Different from Wen Xue, Jian Yue thinks that since there are so few of the same race, they should help each other. He also saved Wen Xue with this mentality at the beginning.
Of course, whether Xi Ning stayed or left in the future, it all depended on his own wishes.
Xi Ning repeatedly promised that he would not bite people or cause trouble, and finally, Wen Xue also nodded and agreed to him staying.
After solving the matter, it was almost dawn. Jian Yue and Wen Xue took two black umbrellas and prepared to go home. They also exhorted Xi Ning a few words before they left.
There was nothing valuable in the store, and they were not worried about leaving Xi Ning alone. Xi Ning went to the back to find a small room. He cleaned up the bed and lay on it, then fell asleep.
