The wealthy and powerful in England live in those well-maintained manors, featuring not only typical European architecture but also lawns and even fountains.
It looks very comfortable.
Ma Wenwen used to be a travel journalist and has visited most famous scenic spots. Manors like these exist in Europe and even in America.
However, the Oliver Manor is indeed very large.
Now, the warm sunlight shines down, and compared to the fog-filled London city center, this place is indeed quite nice.
Still, in the dead of winter, it’s very cold here at night.
"Ye Qiu, what are you thinking about?" Ma Wenwen asked.
"Nothing much, I have to wait for Miss Irina to wake up before I can find out for sure."
But before Ye Qiu and Ma Wenwen went inside, they saw a middle-aged couple.
They should be Miss Irina’s parents, the Oliver couple.
This Oliver is already the eighth, called Oliver VIII, with an impressive ancestry, and his identity is also not simple; he belongs to the upper class in England.
The couple doesn’t know how their daughter got such an illness and found many famous doctors in England and other European countries, all to no avail, so they had to fly to America.
They thought if they couldn’t find a cure in America, they probably wouldn’t find any other doctor to treat their daughter.
Unexpectedly, last night, they received a call from the butler saying Louise, Irina’s friend, had invited a very skilled young doctor from Huaxia, who had cured Miss Irina’s illness.
Cured?
The Oliver couple couldn’t believe it and hurriedly boarded a plane to return.
Of course, they also knew the butler wouldn’t lie to them.
They flew overnight from America, spending twelve hours, and finally returned to the manor.
The couple hurried into the manor building, and upon checking on their daughter, found she was already awake.
Moreover, she no longer feared the sunlight.
Initially, Oliver thought their daughter might have been bitten by a rabid dog and got rabies, resulting in fear of sunlight.
However, seeing the rotting wound, it didn’t look like a rabid dog bite.
Many large dogs may appear bigger than an adult, but if bitten by such a large dog, the resulting wound may be far from simple.
"Irina, my daughter, are you really okay?" the mother hurried over to Irina and asked.
"Mother, I seem to be fine now."
Irina said.
When the mother looked at her shoulder, which Ye Qiu treated this morning, the wound had indeed healed, leaving only a scar.
Irina’s mother saw clearly that aside from the scar, there were truly no other problems.
"You’re no longer afraid of the sunlight?"
"No, I quite like the smell of sunlight."
"God bless, my daughter is okay now."
Irina’s mother thanked God.
But Louise knew that thanking God wouldn’t help; only Ye Qiu deserved gratitude.
"Mom, we should thank Dr. Ye."
Dr. Ye?
"Where is he?"
"Probably outside."
Of course, the Oliver couple never expected that Ye Qiu would be younger than they imagined.
Seeing Ye Qiu come in and confirming that this young man cured their daughter’s illness, the Oliver couple became very excited and expressed a lot of gratitude.
"Dr. Ye, what illness did my daughter have exactly?"
"Corpse Poison."
Corpse Poison?
The couple really couldn’t understand. They were both Cambridge University scholars, yet couldn’t comprehend what Ye Qiu was saying.
"Miss Irina was likely bitten by a vampire and infected with Corpse Poison."
Vampire?
How could there be vampires?
"Dr. Ye, how could there be vampires in this world?"
"Then do you believe in God?"
The couple dared not say they didn’t believe, but were unsure if it was truly real?
The couple felt very awkward.
Ye Qiu was not concerned about whether God existed, but he was certain that vampires existed, and the most crucial thing was their location.
"Mr. Oliver, I think the task now is to find the perpetrator who harmed Miss Irina."
Upon hearing Ye Qiu say that, the Oliver couple agreed.
Because of this incident, their daughter almost lost her life. How could they not pursue the perpetrator?
"Miss Irina, may I ask where were you bitten?"
"At a gathering at the castle."
Castle gathering?
These high society circles regularly attend gatherings and banquets, and a young Irina loved attending them.
Unexpectedly, this time, she got into trouble.
"The perpetrator is likely in that castle. Once you’re better, take me to see it, and I should be able to identify them."
Actually, now that he cured Irina’s illness, he need not worry about additional matters.
However, Ye Qiu was curious, what exactly this vampire was—whether it was transformed from humans, animals, or neither.
As a token of gratitude, apart from paying Ye Qiu a large sum for his medical fees, the Oliver couple instructed the butler to entertain Ye Qiu well.
As for the perpetrator, they sure hope to find them; otherwise, if another incident occurs, they truly wouldn’t know how to proceed. They’re not planning to call the police, knowing it might be unhelpful even if they did.
While Ye Qiu was seated, the butler had already had the servant bring an abundance of delicious food, including foreign fruits and snacks and desserts.
Generally speaking, aristocrats eat very refined and abundant meals, and although each portion isn’t large, there are numerous varieties, similar to how the Queen of England eats several times a day.
Like breakfast, morning tea, lunch tea, afternoon tea, dinner, one could eat up to nine meals in a day and sometimes with guests.
Each meal isn’t much, but it’s particularly exquisite.
And the varieties are certainly different.
Ordinary people couldn’t possibly manage this; most just eat three meals a day for sustenance.
The Oliver family is quite wealthy and thus requires high culinary standards.
British cuisine may not be famous, but they can hire chefs capable of cooking French cuisine, ensuring even a lunch served here competitive with any outside French cuisine restaurant.
Now, Louise conversed with Irina for half an hour, then came down to prepare to stroll around the manor with Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu’s Eastern Castle is surrounded by vineyards, and this year’s vineyard is bountiful.
However, Ye Qiu hasn’t had time to visit Eastern Castle lately, and if it weren’t for Louise urgently calling him, he’d still be in the country.
