Your Little Cutie is online.

Su Xiyan did not dare to think too deeply, or rather, did not want to delve deeper into her thoughts.

It had taken great effort to mend her relationship with Chen Shuo, and their misunderstanding was finally resolved. If she started doubting Chen Shuo again now, it would be unforgivably wrong!

"Xiyan, are you listening to me?" Cheng Xinran asked over the phone.

Su Xiyan snapped back to reality. "Oh...yes, I'm listening."

"Don't worry, Xinran. I'll protect Chen Shuo well."

"No one will dare hurt my man."

Hearing Su Xiyan say this, Cheng Xinran was relieved. "That tone and imposing manner, now that's the Su Xiyan I know!"

"Call me if anything comes up! Don't try to tough it out alone."

Su Xiyan: "Okay. Xinran, I also want to apologize. It's because of me that you've been isolated by the Su City Demon Hunter Organization..."

Before Su Xiyan could finish, Cheng Xinran interrupted her. "Xiyan, don't stand on ceremony with me! If you really feel bad, just treat me to a meal, that's good enough."

She was still a glutton at heart!

Su Xiyan agreed. "Alright, what would you like to eat? You pick the place and time, I'll handle the bill."

After hanging up the phone, the smile on Su Xiyan's face gradually faded away, replaced by a cold expression.

Her pitch-black eyes glinted with an inscrutable light.

After spending so much time together, Su Xiyan had also vaguely sensed that Chen Shuo was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

What he showed was merely the tip of the iceberg beneath his disguise.

However, Su Xiyan had no intention to delve deeper.

She wondered what Chen Shuo was up to right now?

Su Xiyan sent him an adorable emoji. This emoji was one she had specially saved!

Su Xiyan: [Your cutie pie is online~]

Chen Shuo: [???]

[Did someone hack my account?]

Su Xiyan: [......]

Sending intimate signals like this made her feel awkward and reserved!

She couldn't stand it!

The next second, Su Xiyan directly called Chen Shuo.

"Chen Shuo, what are you doing?"

Chen Shuo was tidying up documents for the basketball club and was caught off guard. "Didn't I tell you I still have things to do for the club?"

"Let me finish up first, we'll talk after I'm done."

Just as Su Xiyan was about to say something more, Chen Shuo actually hung up on her!

Su Xiyan, look at yourself! How worthless you are!

She couldn't indulge Chen Shuo's behavior!

Su Xiyan threw her phone aside and started reading books and doing homework to occupy herself so she wouldn't think about Chen Shuo.

Strangely though, as she was looking through her homework, the questions started morphing into Chen Shuo's silhouette.

She couldn't concentrate on reading anymore either, so Su Xiyan closed her books.

It seemed the only way was to find an opportunity for Chen Shuo to move back!

Su Xiyan picked up the phone she had tossed away earlier and called Chen Shuo again.

On the other end, Chen Shuo felt baffled. "Why are you calling again?"

Su Xiyan asked, "Chen Shuo, when are you moving back?"

Chen Shuo: "Didn't I say this afternoon that I have no plans to for now?"

"And it depends on your behavior! If you behave, I can consider moving back sooner."

Su Xiyan: "Just give me a date. When will you move back?"

Chen Shuo: "Is that an order from you?"

"If so, I might not want to move back if I'm unhappy."

"Su Xiyan, why are you in such a hurry for me to move back?"

Of course it was because she wanted to be with him!

But Su Xiyan didn't admit the real reason. Instead, her tone became firmer. "It's because without you living here, there will be no one to keep the house clean or cook. Weren't you the one who said you'd cook for me in the future?"

"If not for needing someone to cook and clean, I wouldn't keep asking you to move back!"

Chen Shuo: "Is that the only reason?"

Su Xiyan continued bluffing. "Of course! What else could there be?"

Chen Shuo: "Those little chores, any housekeeper would be more professional than me."

"Let's not talk about this now, I have things to do."

Chen Shuo didn't give Su Xiyan a chance to respond before hanging up again.

Holding her phone, Su Xiyan mentally wrote the word "Endure" to herself.

She would endure for now, given they had just resolved their misunderstanding!

Su Xiyan was already thinking of ways to torment Chen Shuo after he moved back to make him understand who the real master of this house was!

In northern Su City were many uninhabited old houses that no one lived in.

That area used to flourish with several big factories. But after the factories moved away, people also stopped living there.

Dilapidated buildings had peeling walls and mottled surfaces marked with the Chinese character "Demolish" in red paint.

The original residents had also all moved away because of the demolition and relocation.

Outside, the unmanaged wild grass had grown very tall. In the autumn wind, some tufts had started turning yellow, making the place seem even more devoid of life.

A gust of autumn wind blew through the deserted corridors, producing a haunting sound that was like the echoes of past prosperity in this now desolate place.

Several shadows flitted through the abandoned buildings without lighting, eventually gathering on the rooftop.

They were vampires who normally disguised themselves as normal humans while lurking in Su City.

Not only did they have to endure the thirst for blood inside them, they also had to avoid the demon hunters. Their existence was extremely precarious.

In recent years, the methods of Su City's demon hunters had become more and more powerful! All the vampires in Su City could only cling on and fight for survival in the cracks. They felt as if the demon hunters could exterminate them completely in the next second. They couldn't even see a glimmer of hope.

But in the past days, rumors of a Demon King had suddenly emerged in Su City. Although no one had seen him, the message that there was a Demon King powerful enough to instantly kill all demon hunters had already spread among vampires big and small.

The vampires didn't know the identity of this Demon King yet.

But for them, this was tremendously encouraging news! Especially with the Demon King's traces appearing around the Private Kitchen restaurant recently, as well as the massive shockwaves in the sky during the Demon King's battle. All this made them even more certain that a Demon King really existed in Su City!

For these vampires who had been struggling to survive, this was like a ray of light suddenly appearing in the endless dark night. It invigorated them tremendously!

At last, they saw hope for their race's continuation!

Right now, under the cover of night, they gathered in this desolate abandoned area and plotted:

"Those brothers at the Private Kitchen must have been hunted by that damned Su Xiyan!"

"Who else could it be? At that time in the Private Kitchen, only Su Xiyan had some capability."

"That girl's hands are stained with our blood! We should make her taste what it feels like to lose loved ones too!"

"Well said! How about we start with that Chen Shuo beside her?"

"Chen Shuo? That traitor??"

"Yes, him! Let's look for a chance to kill him! We can purge the traitor and make that stinky Su Xiyan girl taste the pain of losing her sweetheart!"
