"Let him in."
Ian swirled his wine glass...
He had a creepy smile on his face that would make others petrified.
Huo Siqian rushed out so he still had his ordinary business attire on.
He was in an espresso-colored shirt and black dress pants. He also had on a long black wool coat.
He didn't bring anyone with him. Since he was going to see Ian, bringing anyone along with him would only add on inconvenience. So, he came alone.
"You're here. Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Huo Siqian said politely as soon as he saw Ian.
"It's no biggie. I just went around for two days. Although this city of yours is small, it is rather intriguing, " Ian responded with a smile.
"Master Ian, did you come here to deliver a mission to me?" Huo Siqian asked, a bit restless.
"We're in no rush. Huo, come over and have a seat, " Ian said with a smile.
Huo Siqian was very unsettled. However, he listened to Ian and sat down across from him.
Ian held up another glass with dense red liquid and handed it over to Huo Siqian.
"Here. Try it."
Huo Siqian looked down at the glass. He knew that it was human blood since he knew Ian had an old habit of drinking it. Although he knew about this, it was the first time he ever saw Ian drinking it.
"What's the matter? You don't like it?" Ian asked when he saw Huo Siqian was not gulping the drink down.
Huo Siqian raised the glass without a word, he gritted his teeth and gulped the whole drink down...
The bloody taste spread in his mouth and felt like he would throw up any second now.
"What do you think? Do you like the taste?" Ian looked right into Huo Siqian's eyes and asked.
"Not bad..." Huo Siqian responded with all his might.
In front of Ian, Huo Siqian must put on a good performance, or else what he had done and accomplished would be flushed down the drain.
If he made Ian unhappy, there would be severe consequences.
Ian was a whimsical person. He was more capricious than a child.
Ian didn't even care about Nalo, his own biological brother.
Even if Huo Siqian didn't want to drink human blood, he would still do it because going against Ian's will was something he definitely didn't want to do.
Many people would say to him that in front of Ian, he was like a dog.
However, in front of this devil, who would dare not act like his dog?
"Haha... Lovely. I like you..." Ian seemed to be in a good mood. He patted Huo Siqian's shoulder and said, "Do you know whose blood that was?" Ian leaned close to Huo Siqian's face and slowly uttered these words.
Huo Siqian didn't say anything. He seemed to have known the answer already.
Ian grabbed onto Huo Siqian's shoulder with one hand and pointed to a dark corner with the other.
"Huo, look over there..."
When Huo Siqian looked up and towards the corner that Ian pointed at, someone turned on the light.
He saw Mo Xue'er pinned up to a big wooden cross there.
He saw how terribly wounded her body was.
Her blood and the rust of the iron nails mixed perfectly together and gave off a bloody smell.
Huo Siqian seemed to have expected this scene, so he was barely able to maintain his calm.
"Wake her up..." Ian commanded.
One of Ian's subordinates went over to Mo Xue'er and splashed a bucket of cold water on her.
Mo Xue'er woke up once again from the pain...
She slowly opened her eyes, and she saw a familiar figure in her sight.
