No woman would be able to resist the beauty of a jewel — regardless of whether they had the ability to buy it or could only look at it and sigh.
Even women who didn't like money wouldn't be stingy with their admiring gazes.
Zhong Luoyue used to be a jewelry auctioneer when she was studying. The main reason was to meet and get to know the nobles of the upper class. The other reason was because she loved the beautiful jewels.
Therefore, when Lady Eve took off her 'Light of the Forest' and said that she could lend it to Zhong Luoyue to try on, this noble lady didn't refuse.
First of all, she really liked the jewels. Second of all, she wouldn't let Lady Eve and herself get into an argument. She was also a businesswoman. This Lady Eve's origin was a bit mysterious, but she always exuded the aura of a true noble. Who knew if they wouldn't meet again in the future?
The so-called social network was something that one had unknowingly accumulated. In this society that relied on relationships, connections were the greatest wealth. The more powerful a person was, the more they understood this principle.
In an elegant room filled with incense, Lady Eve was putting the 'Light of the Forest' on Zhong Luoyue in front of a full-body mirror.
Under the light, the resplendent jewel emitted a luster that only a truly precious jewel could have. As a former jewelry auctioneer, Zhong Luoyue could roughly estimate the value of this' Light of the Forest '.
In the mirror, Lady Eve was standing behind Zhong Luoyue. After putting the 'Light of the Forest' on her, Lady Eve leaned forward and pressed her hands on Zhong Luoyue's arms. She said softly, "Look at you, you really suit it."
"You flatter me." Zhong Luoyue smiled.
Lady Eve reached out to touch Zhong Luoyue's cheeks. This action made Zhong Luoyue feel a bit uncomfortable … but she didn't move too much.
"Young, confident, beautiful." Lady Eve closed her eyes and sniffed the area behind Zhong Luoyue's ear like a lover. "Miss Zhong, I rarely get to experience your fragrance."
From time to time, the tip of her nose would even touch the back of Zhong Luoyue's neck, giving Zhong Luoyue the feeling that this Lady Eve would kiss him at any moment.
"Lady Eve?" Zhong Luoyue furrowed her brows. In the end, her physical discomfort trumped her mental calmness. She turned around and broke free from Lady Eve's touch.
However, Lady Eve quickly reined herself in. She crossed her arms in front of her stomach and smiled elegantly. Facing Zhong Luoyue, who was looking at her strangely, she asked gently, "Is something the matter, Miss Zhong?"
Unexpectedly, Zhong Luoyue's eyes widened. There was even a trace of panic in them. She looked at Lady Eve and suddenly took a step back. She let out a startled and uncertain voice. "You …"
"Me?" Lady Eve smiled again. She seemed to have sensed that something was wrong with her.
She tilted her head slightly and looked at the mirror next to her. In the full-body mirror, Lady Eve's body was graceful and charming. However, there was something between her lips that ruined this normal beauty.
"You accidentally exposed yourself." Madam Eve covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled.
Fangs appeared between her lips.
"You … What are you?" Zhong Luoyue forced herself to calm down and asked tentatively, "Or is this just a prank? Lady Eve? "
She didn't believe that such a thing existed in the world. However, since she used some tricks to get a mysterious black card back from her second brother, she felt that she seemed to have come into contact with some unusual things.
Especially when she couldn't figure out the material of the black card after asking people to study it for a long time. In the end, she privately visited an old man who was in the same generation as her grandfather. At the same time, he was also an elder of another family that didn't belong to the Zhong Family.
However, she still found it hard to believe … She had more reasons to believe that this Lady Eve was just a disguise. For example, because of some hobby, she specially wore a pair of vampire's fake teeth.
However, it was clear that today's event was not a masquerade.
"A prank?" Lady Eve laughed, her big breasts surging, "Miss Zhong, is this based on fear and self-protection?"
She walked towards Zhong Luoyue step by step, causing Zhong Luoyue to instinctively retreat.
At the same time, the fear in Zhong Luoyue's heart grew stronger … Because in just a few steps, Lady Eve turned from a beautiful woman in the eyes of men to an old woman.
The wrinkles on her face were like withered tree bark, and her shiny skin had almost turned gray. Her body was rapidly losing weight … No word could describe her current appearance.
Lady Eve's laughter was like the sound of wind blowing dry leaves on a cement road, making one's scalp tingle. "I really hate the existence of mirrors at this time."
Lady Eve waved her hand, and the full-body mirror shattered in an instant.
Zhong Luoyue did not have time to be frightened by this scene, because the moment the mirror shattered, Lady Eve had already reached out to grab her.
Lady Eve's withered hand was far stronger than a burly adult male's. Zhong Luoyue felt as if her shoulder was about to be crushed.
But she was not really frightened to the extent that she was completely dumbfounded … In this generation of the Zhong Family, two sons and one daughter were sent by Grandfather Zhong to train since they were young.
Although Zhong Luoyue's time in the military was shorter than her eldest and second brothers, she still learned some real self-protection skills.
When faced with danger, she immediately calmed down and quickly hit Lady Eve's neck with her palm … This chop was not as powerful as those annoying karate masters who could chop bricks, but it was definitely not as simple as a normal person being hit by a chop.
However, Madam Eve was unmoved. She didn't even move. She just chuckled. "They actually resisted before … No, no, it should be said that they struggled. But someone like you is still the first one. I originally preferred the younger one I met in the vineyard, but your performance is really good. I think it's a good idea to let you become my blood servant. "
Zhong Luoyue did not know who Lady Eve was referring to by "them", but without a doubt, "they" were most likely the victims in Lady Eve's hands. Worse, they were probably already dead!
Zhong Luoyue did not have the time to create more opportunities for herself to obtain more information. Right now, she only wanted to escape from this great danger. She quickly retracted her palm from Lady Eve's neck and hit the elbow of Lady Eve's arm that was grabbing her shoulder.
It caused Lady Eve's arm to bend a little, and Zhong Luoyue's shoulder loosened. Zhong Luoyue did not miss this opportunity. Instead, she used a side kick straight at Lady Eve's head.
However, Zhong Luoyue's ankle was caught in an instant. Lady Eve sneered and grabbed Zhong Luoyue's ankle. She suddenly flung it!
Zhong Luoyue's whole body was thrown into the air and heavily hit the corner of the wall … She let out a painful groan.
A monstrous strength … Zhong Luoyue clearly realized that Lady Eve was not an enemy that could be defeated with just some fighting skills.
She crawled up in a slight panic and pressed on her shoulder at the same time … This shoulder was grabbed and thrown to the wall, so it was already injured.
Lady Eve calmly walked over at this time … More of the superiority came from facing a creature that was far weaker than herself … Oh, no, it should be food.
Zhong Luoyue was currently drenched in cold sweat and panting rapidly. She looked at Lady Eve's footsteps and saw that Lady Eve was closing in on her … Finally, Lady Eve was only an arm's length away from her.
"Have you given up resisting?" Lady Eve revealed a creepy smile and slightly opened her mouth at the same time.
In an instant, Zhong Luoyue's eyes became sharp and her uninjured arm shot out like lightning. At the same time, a loud sound burst out at the same time.
Lady Eve's eyes widened and her body suddenly froze … Her eyeballs rolled up, not to roll her eyes, but to look at her own forehead.
But obviously, she couldn't see it.
At the center of Lady Eve's forehead, there was a small bloody hole … and Zhong Luoyue was holding a long lipstick in her hand.
In other words … it was a weapon disguised as a lipstick.
The last life-saving measure … Zhong Luoyue looked at her 'lipstick'. It was made of ceramic and even the bullet was made of ceramic, so it could pass the metal detection test before the banquet.
But it could only shoot one bullet and its power was not comparable to a real pistol, but it was enough to kill.
After being shot in the forehead, Lady Eve's body slowly fell down … but she obviously didn't die!
Under Zhong Luoyue's incredulous gaze, the wound on Lady Eve's forehead started to wriggle little by little, and the bullet that was shot into her brain was slowly pushed out at this time!
This kind of monster couldn't be defeated by human strength!
Once this thought came to her mind, fear surged like a tide. Zhong Luoyue suddenly shivered and rushed out of the door before Lady Eve recovered her ability to move.
However, what she didn't know was that an even greater danger, an even more terrifying thing, and an abyss of fear was behind this door!
The moment she opened the door, she saw a real 'monster' appear in the venue of the banquet where so many guests were gathered!
Its hands and feet were pressed on the ground, and its hair was extremely long … its facial features were no longer the facial features of a human!
The round mouth that occupied almost half of its face was lined with sharp teeth. At the same time, the tongue that was sticking out from the mouth was unbelievably thick and long!
At this moment, it was really a tentacle-like tongue that was coiling around a woman and lifting her up high … At the end of the tongue, there was another organ that was used to bite people!
It was biting on the neck of the woman who was coiled around.
In mid-air, the long tongue was like a straw, and the woman's body was quickly sucked dry … Around her, there were more withered corpses with faces full of fear and despair.
However, most of the guests were scared out of their wits. They hid under the ridiculous table or curled up in the corner.
This hellish scene … Zhong Luoyue instantly felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"What kind of … abyss have I fallen into …"
Zhong Luoyue looked back in horror, only to see Lady Eve's body twitching and slowly standing up … She was shocked, but she still didn't care too much, and only wanted to escape from this place.
Before Lady Eve completely recovered and before the blood-sucking monster noticed her … Escape!
…
…
Ten minutes ago.
The banquet had started for some time, and when many guests were discussing how this new batch of wine was compared to the previous ones, the program that they had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived.
He didn't know where he had heard the rumor … Rumor had it that at this wine party, Wine Master Tu Shenyi would take out the legendary 'Daylily, River of Forgetfulness' and drink it with a lucky person.
The same series of 'Daylily' wine was once sold at a sky-high price in an auction, and for many people who loved wine, it was like a dream wine.
Under everyone's expectation, a man slowly walked out at this time, and at the same time, he pushed out a huge roulette.
It was the man who took out the magical 'treasure ball' in the banquet hall not long ago — the rich man who wanted to buy this' treasure ball 'recognized it immediately.
The person who pushed the roulette was Takizawa.
He pushed the roulette to the front of everyone's sight, then smiled and cleared his throat, "Ladies and gentlemen, the next moment will be an exciting moment. Do you know what I'm going to do next? "
Everyone held their breath, looking at Takizawa's face with a smile.
Takizawa said loudly, "I believe that before entering the banquet hall, you have already received a crystal ball with a number engraved on it, right? Now, please let me see the crystal ball in your hands, okay? "
The ladies took out the crystal ball and held it in front of them.
At this time, Takizawa turned his body very beautifully in front of everyone, and then held the edge of the huge roulette with both hands. His eyes flashed with a strange light, and he continued to say loudly, "See this roulette? See the number on this roulette? Ladies and gentlemen, you are smart, have you guessed what I'm going to do next? Answer me! Have you guessed it? "
"I guessed it!" The ladies' voices were more prominent.
At this time, Takizawa suddenly used his strength to turn the huge roulette, and the rapidly spinning roulette was like a whirlpool.
Finally, under everyone's nervous waiting, the roulette slowly stopped.
The needle finally stopped at the range representing the number '18'. At this time, Takizawa opened his hands and said loudly, "Please tell me, where is the lucky one!"
"It's me! It's me! "
It was the rich man who wanted to buy the 'treasure ball' before!
He raised the crystal ball in his hand, looking very proud, and happily pushed the crowd away, and walked in front of Takizawa, "It's me! We meet again! "
"Yes, we meet again." Takizawa smiled, "Mr. Lucky One."
