Some words may be mean, but they are for your own good, we, you, me, Mi’er, we can become true partners.

It is precisely because we come with sincerity that we had the initial offense.”

CEO Cheng stopped making statements, took Temir’s hand, lifted it up to Wolf’s line of sight, and said.

“Mr.

Wolf, to get something, one must pay a price, join us and you will gain a great deal.”

Temir said nothing, just as she finished her business, CEO Cheng became the one leading the conversation.

It wasn’t that her abilities or wisdom were lacking, but she was ultimately a woman—letting CEO Cheng take the lead was even her own suggestion.

America, ah, truly discriminates against women, the kind without any attempt to hide it.

(The higher you go, the worse it gets, politicians discriminate while pretending respect)

“You?

One of you is a new immigrant, the other not even an heir.

What good does joining you do for me?”

Wolf scoffed.

He wasn’t a fool; he was Wolf Dracula, who had already defied fate on his own once.

Cheng Daqi smiled meaningfully and said.

“Mr.

Wolf, some people can offer you more, but compared to us, they also demand more.

The greater the power you borrow, the greater the price you have to pay, I think you understand that concept.”

Checkmate!

Cheng Daqi’s statement was flawless, leaving Wolf Dracula speechless and silent.

“Goose~ Goose~ Goose~ Hahaha, sorry.”

For some reason, Temir suddenly laughed out loud.

The two men glared at her harshly, then continued their conversation.

“Detail what I can gain, Chan.”

Cheng Daqi held up three fingers.

“Mi’er will help the Dracula Family become true members of the Republican Party, you will become the true controller of Dracula, and you will secure the friendship of myself and Mi’er.

I could talk about many intangible things, but Mr.

Wolf, Mi’er and I have come with sincerity.

We insulted you, offended you, then tested you, saved you, because our power isn’t great, and we also need partners.

Just as you need Mi’er to help you break the game, and as you need me to help you make a firm decision, we also need you as a friend!”

CEO Cheng ‘spoke from the heart’ several times in his negotiation with Wolf, always referring to friends, and every time he mentioned Wolf, he was respectful.

This wasn’t without effect, sometimes, the weight that tips the scales can be a sincere word.

But Wolf was a cold-blooded vampire; he wasn’t swayed at all by Cheng Daqi’s heartfelt pitch.

“The price, talk about the price,” Wolf asked coldly.

“Not much, even quite little, Mr.

Wolf, aside from necessary stock swaps and some financial support, you won’t even lose a single US dollar,” the wealthy woman with black hair replied.

Temir’s deal wasn’t profitable; what she earned was influence.

The exchange of top enterprise shares can create a vast community of interests, and this capital-controlled community is constantly eager to expand.

Interest-driven managers and greedy capitalists all aspire for expansion.

Stock swaps and incorporating new members is a form of expansion.

Once an interest group reaches a certain scale, being big is sufficient to be strong; big equals strong.

For capital, diversification is an advantage in itself; the more dispersed, the more decentralized, and economic power de-centralization can greatly reduce the risks faced by the large capitalists—political risks, market risks, and more.

“I don’t believe you two, Chan.

Nice words and generous conditions can be offered by anyone, but I don’t believe that the two of you can help Dracula enter the real power center of the Republican Party.

Moreover, I don’t trust you.”

The two instances of ‘I don’t trust you’ were very telling—the first was clear and explanatory, while the second was laden with deeper meaning.

Luckily, there was no fool like Geweil among the three present today; everyone understood each other’s meaning.

The point of interest Temir and Cheng Daqi saw in Wolf was that, after he overthrows his father and seizes power, with Temir’s introduction, the Dracula Family could smoothly become a member of the local Republican establishment.

The Dracula Family would emerge from the crisis, Mi’er would gain influence, which is ‘public esteem.’

In this, Wolf’s patricidal act is the premise; old Dracula has committed so many atrocities that death at anyone’s hand is deserved.

The relationship between this premise and the subsequent outcome of Dracula joining the Republican Party is linear—if the old Dracula were to oversee this matter, then Temir and CEO Cheng wouldn’t qualify to participate!

Only by letting Wolf take charge can there be a possibility for him to extend an opportunity to Mi’er!

But Wolf, at the moment, doesn’t trust Mi’er’s promise to help him gain entry into the established ranks of the Republican Party, and he fears that after killing his vampire father, his family will fall into chaos and become vulnerable—Wolf wouldn’t have gotten to where he is today without a measure of wariness.

The Dracula Family isn’t his yet, but there’s a chance it could be in the future.

If his maneuvers ruin the family business, it would be better to just wait for the old vampire to die.

Even though they haven’t said a word, both sides have already fully exchanged terms, and Wolf has raised his doubts.

“Chan, Temir, you have to prove to me, show that you have the strength, prove that you’re not luring me into leading Dracula to ruin!”

“As for the first point, Mr.

Wolf, you will soon see the proof for yourself; Mi’er is capable of handling it.

Regarding the second point, well, you don’t have a choice; if you don’t kill him, he’ll kill you.”

Cheng Daqi released his grip on Temir’s hand, and as a result, Mi’er tightened hers instead.

He glared at the sly woman and continued.

“He has too many sons and plenty of potential heirs; you’re too clever, it keeps him up at night.”

CEO Cheng was merely talking nonsense; the logic appeared sound, but after all, they were father and son—it was a blatant act of instigation.

“Let’s go eat first.

You say we’ll see proof, so let’s see it before we talk further.”

Wolf seemed not to hear CEO Cheng’s words and said with a smile.

The topics discussed today were so shocking that he needed a few days to think it over and make a decision, to prevent desire from leading him to make a mistake.

Delaying for a few days would also allow him to witness the ‘proof’ CEO Cheng mentioned.

“Haha, speaking of which, this matter also involves BEC, Mr.

Wolf, please look forward to it.”

CEO Cheng responded composedly.

It seemed like a small success or perhaps still far from it, but now that things had come to this, Cheng Daqi had done his best.

—————–

“After so many years, you’re the first to dare bring guns into Dracula Manor; do you realize the trouble you’re in?”

In front of the main building at Dracula Manor, the butler surrounded Riel and Xiao Sun with a team of security guards.

Several guards were holding guns, and they were confronting Riel.

“Riel, Fak, you’ve gotten us killed!”

Xiao Sun’s teeth chattered as he spoke, wretchedly.

Had he known that playing with those leaves would lead to such a turn in his life, he would’ve chopped up those who introduced him to it.

Being pointed at by a bunch of people with guns and not wetting himself was already a brave display on Xiao Sun’s part.

“Stay calm, it’ll be over quickly,” Riel muttered.

“What’ll be over quickly?” Xiao Sun asked in a low voice.

“Those large-caliber guns in their hands, one shot and you’ll lose consciousness, you won’t feel any pain.”

“Riel, that’s not a funny joke.”

“Who told you I’m joking, today we may really be in trouble.”

Riel was quite calm, having entered this line of work, he’d long been prepared to face death.

Having played enough video games and flirted enough, he felt dying now wouldn’t be too much of a loss.

“Stop, what are you doing, put down your guns, they’re Chan’s entourage!”

Wolf Dracula appeared with CEO Cheng and Mi’er, resolving the chaotic situation.

“Alright, everyone hurry up and come to eat.

Mi’er, I didn’t expect you to visit our home, I’ve been waiting for a long time.

Butler, what’s the big deal with carrying a couple of guns?

You’re making a mountain out of a molehill, everyone disperse.”

From a window on the second floor of the main building, Joel Dracula, who had been watching the show for a long time, began to tease Mi’er in a jesting tone.

The situation was thus defused, but Wolf Dracula, walking at the back, glanced back at the two men with guns, merely looking for a moment before moving on.

On the first day of December, two coyotes walked into the Dracula Family armed with guns.
