Chapter 275 : A Rose Wedding 1 (2/2)
As a Pure Blood, Mi Nai had a lot of research value; experiments were conducted on her endlessly, causing her to be tormented to death.
Mi Nai had only one wish: revenge.
The BHA, Ai Wei, she wanted revenge against all of them!
If Ai Wei hadn’t suddenly accused Mi Nai, she would have never been in the sights of the BHA, nor would she have experienced such a fate.
‘Just some face-slapping, eh? I’m(bbb) good at this! I’ll have them crying for their parents in no time!
Now let me(lz) the fuck out! How are you supposed to open this damn coffin, huh? I can’t even push the lid off! It’s jiangshi[2] that are supposed to sleep in coffins, okay?! What’s a vampire doing sleeping in a coffin? Have some self-awareness of your status as a noble vampire, okay?!’
After spending ages fumbling around trying to open the coffin and failing, Shi Sheng lost her temper—she pulled out her sword and hacked her way out. Having been bisected, the two halves of the coffin lid smashed to the ground, making a dull thud.
It was pretty dark outside the coffin. Fortunately, it had been facing the window, where moonlight streamed in and dimly lit the dark room, making it appear as though a veil had been placed over everything.
Shi Sheng found the light switch using Mi Nai’s memories and flipped it on, causing the room to brighten up.
The room was decorated in a classy, European style. The colour scheme leaned towards the dark spectrum and the antique furnishings were simple. One’s first impression wouldn’t lead one to believe this was the room of a girl…or well, a vampire girl.
Shi Sheng turned to look at the coffin she emerged from. It appeared of a higher class than everything else in the room.
She then turned her gaze to the poster on top of the coffin. No, it wasn’t a poster. It was a very lifelike painting.
The main theme of the painting seemed to be roses; blood red roses bloomed all over the painting. And through the slight gaps between the roses, one could vaguely see the outline of a child’s back. What stood out the most was the crescent-shaped pendant that hung on a red string tied around the child’s wrist.
Mi Nai had greatly treasured this painting, but Shi Sheng couldn’t find the reason from the memories she’d inherited.
……
Mi Nai lived alone, so there was no one else around to bother her. But something terrible had just occurred to Shi Sheng… ‘Vampires need to drink blood ah! I don’t like to drink that stuff!’
Thinking about blood made Shi Sheng feel hungry all of a sudden. ‘Oh damn… I’m going to starve to death in this world!
I could write a book…titled: 101 Ways I Died in My Transmigration Days.
I bet it’ll be a hit.’
But now that her train of thought had turned to novel writing, Shi Sheng felt somewhat gloomy. ‘Haven’t started a new one in ages. This time I gotta write a couple to satisfy my craving! I’m hungry…’
Shi Sheng rubbed her tummy, got up, and walked out of her room. There were several flasks filled with a red liquid in the fridge.
It was clearly sealed tightly, yet she thought she could smell blood. It was a tempting, tempting smell.
Gulping down a mouthful of saliva, Shi Sheng picked up the flasks, slammed the fridge door shut and tossed them into the bin before turning to head back to her room.
‘Can vampires eat other things instead of blood?’
But to Shi Sheng’s sorrow, human food was utterly useless to vampires—eating too much would even cause her to weaken!
So, the only option was to drink blood.
Any vampire that wanted to enter human civilisation had to obtain approval from the BHA. All their blood needs would have to be settled through what was provided by the BHA.
What she had thrown away just now was an example of the blood that was obtained through proper channels. But from what had happened to Mi Nai, Shi Sheng was pretty certain the BHA had done something to it.
Even without her aversion to drinking blood in the picture, she’d definitely never drink stuff with an unknown origin.
Shi Sheng thought for a bit before sitting on the sofa cross-legged. She had felt some spirit energy in this world just now. Although it wasn’t much, absorbing it should at the very least be enough to suppress some of the hunger, right…?
