In American TV shows: Get stronger by spending money!

The surrounding space began to distort, and amidst the ripples, Su disappeared. The next moment, his figure reappeared from the distorted space in a pitch-black tomb.

It worked!

Su looked around and then at the female mummy lying on the ground against the wall.

This mummified body is Anna's mother, Pearl.

In The Vampire Diaries, vampires who don't drink blood for a long time will turn into mummies and enter a state similar to suspended animation. As long as they smell fresh blood, they will wake up from suspended animation. Once they drink blood, their bodies will return to normal and become plump again.

"Crack!"

The flash of the camera instantly illuminated the dark tomb. Su took a selfie with her phone, then the light disappeared, and Su used her blurring ability to leave the tomb.

Back home, Su looked at the photos on his phone and smiled slightly, pondering how to amuse Anna. After all, he could take the pearl out anytime now, which was four or five years earlier than in the TV series.

Moreover, pearls are not something to be trifled with.

In the TV series, after emerging from the tomb, he exudes the aura of a mini-boss. Whether it's gathering the other vampires in the tomb to prepare for the takeover of Mystic Falls, or teaching Damon, one of the two male leads' brothers, a lesson, he's incredibly domineering and arrogant.

Now that she's released, will she live a peaceful life? The resentment and hatred sealed away for so many years aren't so easily dispelled. Besides, both she and Anna need to drink blood regularly, which is also a hassle.

Also, Anna might be willing to continue following Sue after rescuing her mother, but would Pearl agree?

Anna cherishes her mother Pearl, and Pearl cherishes her daughter Anna just as much; their motherly bond is truly deep.

Sue didn't intend to keep Anna by her side indefinitely. As friends, they didn't need to see each other every day or live together. It was enough for her to be there when needed.

Besides, it was agreed from the beginning that she would be his sparring partner, and he would guarantee her safety and be responsible for her expenses during this period. Although he didn't really fulfill his sparring partner duties, he never said that Anna would stay with him forever.

So if Anna wants to start a new life with her mother, Sue won't refuse. But if Pearl tries to take Anna away by force, then Sue will have to have a word with her.

Anna was his friend, but Pearl wasn't!

-

Golden sunlight bathed the earth, and the sleeping town gradually awoke with the start of a new day.

Shops and businesses on the street have opened their doors, and there are more people and vehicles on the road; in the park not far away, children are laughing and playing, and young people are sitting on benches or lawns drinking coffee and eating breakfast.

"call out--"

In the living room on the first floor, Su appeared out of nowhere, holding a coffee she had bought from a coffee shop near the William Berg restaurant.

Yes, it's the coffee shop where Anna used to work.

After casually placing Anna's cup on the nearby cabinet, Su Shi drank her own coffee, opened the door, and went out.

Many people stopped outside, and when they saw Mr. Su, they greeted him warmly and asked about his background.

After the red Ferrari drove into town yesterday, rumors about Sue and Anna spread throughout the town. Especially after Caroline and the others exaggerated the situation, many young people knew that a rich man driving a sports car had come to town and bought a house there, seemingly intending to live there permanently.

So early in the morning, many young people make a point of passing by here on their way to school to see the cool red sports car and what its owner looks like.

The car is very cool.

He's very handsome.

As for whether he has money or not, sorry, most people can't tell the value of the luxury brands Su wears, but someone who owns a sports car and a house is definitely rich.

"Hi, good morning." A deliberately delicate voice sounded beside Su Shi. Su Shi turned her head and saw a long-haired girl standing next to her with a tea-like smile.

It felt forced; it wasn't as natural as Caroline's performance.

"My name is Vicky, welcome to the town." Vicky, the long-haired girl, extended her hand when she saw Su looking over.

Vicky is Matt's older sister. Matt is Elena's childhood friend. Elena's younger brother is in love with Vicky. Vicky is in love with another man, Taylor, who is a werewolf. Vicky, however, becomes a vampire.

Most importantly, Vicky's life is very chaotic; she drinks heavily, does drugs, and indulges in unrestrained behavior.

Ms. Su smiled and said thank you, but did not shake hands with her. It wasn't that she was prejudiced; her life was in such a bad state due to her family situation, but her younger brother Matt was much more proactive than her.

Well, actually it's just a bit of a prejudice, mainly because she doesn't have any redeeming qualities that the Su family would appreciate.

A little embarrassed by the polite refusal, Vicky withdrew her hand and casually tossed her not-too-messy hair, persisting, "Perhaps, we can be friends?"

“Perhaps I can let you earn some pocket money,” Su said directly.

Vicky, whose purpose had been exposed, did not feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she looked at Su Shi with a meaningful gaze and asked, "How much?"

"..."

Su shrugged, turned and went into the house: "Come with me."

Many people nearby noticed what was happening, but Vicky ignored them and followed Madam Su into the house.

Chapter 85 If Vicky is okay with it, why can't I, Caroline?!

Sue picked up the coffee from the cabinet and, with a mix of nervousness and curiosity, led Vicky upstairs to Anna's room.

"Bang bang bang."

"come in."

After knocking a few times, Anna responded languidly from inside.

"Wait, wait a minute..." Vicky stopped Su Shi, realizing what was happening. "Is your girlfriend inside? This... isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"five hundred."

"Wha, what?"

"Five hundred, once!"

Looking at Vicky, who had fallen silent, Su said calmly, "If you don't want this price, I can find someone else."

Vicky said softly, "I think I can give it a try."

Su pushed open the door and led Vicky inside. Anna, who was already up, was slightly taken aback when she saw the unfamiliar girl Su had brought in. Then, she reacted and asked with some concern, "Is it safe?"

“I get regular checkups, so I’m definitely safe,” Vicky said, somewhat dissatisfied.

Anna was taken aback, then chuckled, "You didn't tell her the truth?"

“There are too many people on the street, it’s inconvenient. It’s not too late to talk about it now, anyway, she just wants to make money.” Su shrugged and looked at Vicky, “Do you like excitement?”

Vicky, who was initially a little angry, suddenly brightened up upon hearing this: "You have something good?"

"I'm talking about a different kind of excitement!"

As soon as Su finished speaking, Anna was already in front of Vicky.

With smoky makeup and sharp fangs, Vicky stared blankly at Anna's drastically changed appearance, the word "vampire" echoing in her mind.

"Ah..." The sharp, terrified scream was immediately covered by Anna's hand. Vicky trembled all over with fear, her pupils dilated instantly, the fear of death enveloped her heart, and her mind went blank.

It felt like a long time had passed, yet it also felt like only a moment.

Vicky, no longer feeling any pain, finally regained consciousness and her mind returned to normal. Anna slowly released her grip, and Vicky gasped for breath, asking in a trembling voice, "You...you're vampires?"

"I am, he isn't!"

Anna shook her head, completely releasing Vicky: "I won't kill you or hurt you, I just need you to provide me with some blood. I can guarantee it won't cause you any harm or affect you. And..."

Anna looked at Su, who, under Vicky's gaze, readily counted out five hundred dollars from her wallet and placed it in Vicky's hand: "Paid blood donation won't give you this much money."

Vicky looked at the US dollars in her hand and thought that she had followed the Su family in in broad daylight. So many people had seen her, they probably wouldn't dare to hurt her, right?

"Are you...are you sure you won't hurt me? You won't turn me into a vampire? And you won't cause me any trouble afterwards?" Vicky asked hesitantly.

Anna nodded firmly: "As long as you don't go around telling everyone about my identity and what happened, I won't cause you any trouble. In fact, if you can accept that, I'd prefer to do a long-term deal with you."

"I... I don't know whether I should trust you." Vicky was tempted, but instinctively she was also afraid.

"You'll find out soon enough." Anna shook her head and lunged at Vicky.

Half an hour later, Su, who had not left, stopped Anna from using her own blood to heal Vicky after Anna finished eating.

Seeing Vicky's slightly pale face and somewhat listless eyes, Su used her palm magic to treat her bite marks.

A warm and itchy sensation came from the spot on her neck where she had been bitten. Vicky stared in shock, her eyes widening, and asked in surprise and curiosity, "What... what is this?"

Sue did not respond. A few minutes later, the bite marks on Vicky's neck completely disappeared, and there was no trace of the bite.

"I'll keep an eye on you."

Su turned to look at the doorway, indicating that Vicky could leave.

Vicky, clutching her neck where she couldn't feel the wound at all, tentatively walked towards the door. Su and Anna didn't stop her, and she breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitantly asked, "Do...do I need to come again?"

Su waved her hand: "Whatever you say."

If you want to make money, come; if you don't, don't come. As long as you don't spread rumors, this transaction will be settled, with both money and goods exchanged.

Will Vicky come back?

Judging from her performance, it's easy to see that the answer is almost certainly yes.

It's just a little blood being sucked, there's no danger, and you can make money. The bite wound will be healed. This exciting way of making money is very attractive to a girl like Vicky whose life is chaotic. As long as she is no longer afraid of this, as long as she is immersed in the environment of making money as easy as drinking water and spending money as easy as flowing water, even if she is not allowed to come, she will try every means to continue this transaction and continue this job.

····Requesting flowers·· ·····

Although Vicky was weak and tired when she left, her face radiated excitement and satisfaction. Back at school, she lavishly treated several friends to lunch, making it hard not to wonder where Vicky got her money. In no time, news of Vicky and the mysterious wealthy man spread throughout the school.

Caroline, who was initially quite pleased with herself for being the first to contact the Su family and exchange numbers, was furious upon hearing this news.

If there's any gossip about someone and the Su family, that person should be themselves, not Vicky.

After Caroline found out the situation, her initial inferiority complex was instantly suppressed by her competitive spirit. If someone like Vicky could be chosen, there was no reason why she couldn't be.

......... ......... ...

She wouldn't be as foolish as Vicky for a mere five hundred dollars. Cleaning for the Su family was the same price, and there were even substantial small rewards. Vicky was blind. Her goal was to make the Su family her boyfriend and completely overshadow that little bitch Vicky.

After school, Caroline declined Elena and Bonnie's invitation to go home together and went straight to Sue's.

"Bang bang bang!"

Caroline knocked on the door nervously. A moment later, Su, dressed casually, opened the door and said with a smile, "You've come at the right time. I bought some things and I'm wondering how to decorate them. Can you give me some suggestions?"

Caroline then realized that the room, which had been somewhat empty yesterday, was now filled with all sorts of things. She put down her backpack, took off her coat, and smiled at Su: "Okay, where should we start?"

"Let's go to the living room."

"it is good."
