For generations, the Jiang family of Qi'an has had only one child. No matter what business they pursue, they always turn disaster into fortune, remaining Qi'an's richest family for hundreds of years.
Outsiders envy their good luck, but the Jiang family calls it a "deal with the devil."
From childhood, Jiang Luzhou was told never to set foot in Qi'an.
After he turned eighteen, a vague figure appeared in his dreams every night, leaning by the window and saying, "I'm waiting for you."
Curiosity killed the cat. When he woke, he decided to return to his hometown.
On a stormy night of thunder and lightning, he lost his way in the forest. Turning at a path, he stumbled upon an ancient, magnificent castle.
Full of resentment, his voice was laced with bitterness.
He thought that person was his enemy. In truth... they were his nemesis from a past life.
The person from his dreams appeared in the real world, glaring at him fiercely.
"A deal with the devil will be fulfilled, even if you regret it."
"I became a monster who can't stand the light and can only survive by drinking blood, all for you."
"And you fear me, despise me, and want to have the sun all to yourself?"
"Why should you get to?"
Fangs pressed against his neck, the sweet, metallic scent of blood drifting through the air.
Yet Jiang Luzhou felt his heart strangely settle.
So it was a vampire. He chuckled.
The vampire's fangs sank into his skin, and a dark voice asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Jiang Luzhou smiled provocatively. "I'm laughing because you kidnapped me but don't even dare let me look at you, my..."
"...creditor from a past life?"
