I have someone very important to meet. Let's go.

Su Xiyan was full of confusion in her heart, though her expression remained calm on the surface.

After taking a seat, she casually took off her coat.

It was an inadvertent move, but she was probing.

Sure enough, with just one probe, she had probed something out.

In such a high-end private dining restaurant, there were intelligent temperature control systems, keeping the temperature comfortable.

Last time when Su Xiyan came here with her best friend Cheng Xinran, as soon as they took off their coats, two servers came over to neatly hang up their coats on the coat rack.

But this time, after Su Xiyan took off her coat and put it on the chair next to her, the surrounding servers remained indifferent.

"Where is Miss Liu who took my order last time?" Su Xiyan asked casually.

The server behind her smiled and replied, "Miss Su, you must be referring to Sister Liu?"

"When you came to order last time, it was our supervisor who received you. Her surname is Liu, like the liu in liuzhou."

Su Xiyan's eyebrows slightly raised: "Oh, is that so? Then I must have remembered wrong."

The server looked quite young, probably a little younger than Su Xiyan. Her voice was very gentle: "Here is how it is. We work on a rotating shift schedule. Since we are not a very large restaurant, the shift schedule is quite casual without specifically assigning servers to certain guests."

"So last time when Sister Liu took care of you happened to be her shift, and today I'm on duty to receive you."

Su Xiyan nodded and hmm'ed.

So it was a rotating shift system?

Looking at it this way, was she overthinking things?

Su Xiyan couldn't help but mock herself. Ever since she started worrying about Chen Shuo's safety, she tended to overthink everything.

She really was grabbed by her weakness!

Outside the private room, there was a knock on the door.

Su Xiyan's expression immediately became expectant. Could it be Chen Shuo?

But when the door opened, Su Xiyan's excitement diminished quite a bit.

Two servers carried in a large cake.

The pink cake matched well with the outfit Su Xiyan wore today.

Next to the cake was a greeting card, with crooked handwriting and cute cartoons on it, sent by Cheng Xinran.

As expected of a good friend, she sent a gift and specially ordered a cake too, avoiding being a third wheel in person.

Su Xiyan thought, after her relationship with Chen Shuo stabilizes, she must properly treat Cheng Xinran to a meal.

Glancing at the clock on the wall, there were only ten-odd minutes until the appointed time.

How come this Chen Shuo still hasn't arrived?

Su Xiyan picked up her phone, ready to call Chen Shuo to remind him not to be late.

But as soon as Su Xiyan picked up her phone, she immediately sensed an intense vampire aura!!

There were vampires around here?!

Su Xiyan was already the most powerful demon hunter in Su City. Any vampire was just a small fry to her that she could easily hunt down.

But this time, the vampires she sensed didn't seem to be just one??

It felt more like they were deliberately headed this way, with clear targets.

Since Chen Shuo hadn't arrived yet, she might as well take care of a few vampires first!

Su Xiyan calmly said to the server beside her, "If a Mr. Chen comes looking for me, please lead him to this private room to wait for me first."

"May I ask where the restroom is?"

The server nodded with a smile: "No problem, we will let your friend know."

"The restroom is this way, please let me show you."

Su Xiyan: "No need, no need. I'm not used to people following me when I go to the restroom."

After speaking, Su Xiyan walked towards the direction the server pointed, out of the private room.

The vampire auras were getting stronger and stronger.

It didn't seem like a coincidence encounter.

On the contrary, it felt like they were coming here deliberately, with clear targets.

Shaking off the server, Su Xiyan arrived at a small corridor next to the restroom.

This side was lined with lush green bamboo, blocking the view to the private rooms.

On the other side were the perimeter wall and windows. Outside the windows was the hillside park.

The environment was serene without anyone around.

It was the most suitable place to hunt vampires.

Su Xiyan believed in her own strength. Just a few small fry vampires really wouldn't catch her eye.

At this moment, the clouds in the sky gradually thickened, looking like it would rain soon.

Su Xiyan stood under the corridor, looking out the window: "Since you've come prepared, stop hiding."

"Come out!"

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, four or five vampires jumped out from behind the bamboo, the corridor, the window, under the eaves.

And not low leveled ones either.

Several were mid-level vampires, and there were even two possible high-levels.

A group of them, well-prepared, targeting either Su Xiyan or Chen Shuo.

In any case, it had to be one of them.

She also didn't know how these vampires found out that Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo would be eating here at this time.

Could they be targeting Chen Shuo?

Su Xiyan understood very clearly that vampires wanted to eliminate potential threats.

Otherwise, why would vampires throw themselves into her net? She was the most famous demon hunter in Su City!

Unless these vampires didn't want to live anymore.

Want to make a move on Chen Shuo? They'd have to see if I, Su Xiyan, would allow it!!

No matter their intentions,

Since they appeared before me today, that's akin to courting death!!

Those vampires had already gradually revealed their true hideous forms when they appeared before Su Xiyan.

Each one extremely fiendish, grotesquely shaped.

In comparison, Su Xiyan felt that her Chen Shuo was simply an outlier among vampires.

Looks still prevailed!

If Chen Shuo also looked like this, Su Xiyan estimated she would have taken him out with one glance when they first met.

How could there have been any story afterwards?

Su Xiyan loosened her wrists, and her knuckles made crisp sounds.

Her arrogant noble lady tone was especially chill with a hint of killing intent when she coldly laughed.

"Come at me together! Don't waste time."

"I still have a very important person to meet. If you delay me, you will die miserably."

The sooner she took care of these annoying vampires, the sooner she could see Chen Shuo. No one could interfere with her spending her birthday together with Chen Shuo.

The leading vampire's eyeballs looked like they would bleed. He gnashed his teeth: "Damn girl!"

"Even if we die, we'll drag you down with us!!"

After speaking, the leading vampire had already charged at Su Xiyan.

The piercing wind carried the stench of blood, nauseating!

To a demon hunter, this was just a small scene.

Blue icy flames surged in Su Xiyan's palm. With just a slight exertion of force, the leading vampire was forced back by a tremendous power.

Unable to stand steadily, his body smashed heavily into the corner like a torn sack.

Seeing this, the few vampires next to him actually developed thoughts of retreat.

This...was too strong! Even at the cost of their lives, they couldn't win! She was on a completely different level!

Su Xiyan was just about to hunt down these vampires in one go.

Suddenly, she recalled something very important,

And her hand hanging in midair also paused.
