Chen Shuo was pressed down in the chair, but he was still tightly holding the paper bag containing his lunch box.
He hadn't eaten for a whole day! He was starving!
When he looked closely, the three pairs of hands holding him down belonged to his three roommates from the dormitory:
Shen Xu, who always had dark circles under his eyes all year round as if his body was hollowed out, nicknamed Kidney Deficiency Gentleman;
Every dormitory had a roommate nicknamed "Fatty", and the Fatty in Chen Shuo's dorm, who also had a head of natural curly hair, was called Zhu Fei, nicknamed Zhu Fatty.
There was also Lu Chen, who wore glasses and looked gentle, seeming to be a hypocritical villain.
The horizontal flesh on Zhu Fatty's face trembled due to extreme excitement.
"Brother Three, I heard you are together with the school belle of Su University?"
Chen Shuo was full of questions in his mind: "What the heck? How could I possibly be with her? Who is spreading rumors?"
Zhu Fatty and Kidney Deficiency Gentleman looked at Lu Chen in unison,
Lu Chen quickly replied, "The school belle of Su University asked you to go to her house on the weekend."
The wicked Lu Chen even imitated Su Xiyan's tone of speaking: "Don't let me wait too long~~~"
Chen Shuo: "Does...does Su Xiyan really speak like that? No way, she's not so sissy!"
Now, Zhu Fatty and Kidney Deficiency Gentleman were even more certain that Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan had an extraordinary relationship:
"You see, you're even speaking up for the school belle of Su University, just honestly confess!"
"When did you get together with the school belle of Su University?"
"Good for you, Chen Shuo, usually keeping a low profile, but actually managed to pursue the school belle of Su University?"
"Do you know, she was my motivation to choose to apply for Nanli University in the first place! Because I saw the school belle of Su University in the enrollment advertisement of Nanli University, from that moment on, I decided, I must study hard and get admitted to Nanli University, to become the junior schoolmate of the school belle of Su University!"
"My dream, my moonlight, my hope in life...destroyed!"
"Chen Shuo, you'd better honestly explain your relationship with the school belle of Su University."
Looking at the roommates with faces full of heartbreak, collapse, disillusionment, and complex expressions of envy, jealousy and hatred, Chen Shuo was stunned.
After a few seconds, Chen Shuo spread his hands helplessly: "It's just Su Xiyan, don't you think you guys are overreacting?"
The three roommates nodded solemnly in unison: "We're not overreacting!!"
So it turned out Su Xiyan was the goddess in many people's hearts? Chen Shuo only knew Su Xiyan was the school belle before, he didn't realize she had such a big influence among the male students.
If they knew Su Xiyan had monstrous combat power, tearing vampires apart with her bare hands without blinking an eye, would they be scared shitless?
Too bad, they can't see the ferocious and brutal side of Su Xiyan.
After a round of interrogation, Chen Shuo finally could eat in peace.
--------
It was the weekend, the day to go clean up at Su Xiyan’s house.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Chen Shuo still hadn't arrived.
Su Xiyan was getting impatient waiting, she sent Chen Shuo a message on WeChat.
【Where are you?】
Chen Shuo sent back a video of him shopping at the household section in the supermarket.
【Your brooms are all worn out and split, have to buy new ones. Also, the grease remover spray in your kitchen is expired too. And...never mind, check the photos!】
Su Xiyan looked at the photos Chen Shuo sent over, which contained steel wool balls, sponges, rags, various detergents, etc.
The icy cold face softened a little, and the posture sitting on the sofa relaxed quite a bit too.
Looks like sparing Chen Shuo’s life was the right decision.
More than twenty minutes later, Chen Shuo arrived at Su Xiyan's door carrying supermarket shopping bags on his shoulders, and a long mop over his other shoulder.
After Su Xiyan opened the door for Chen Shuo, she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Don't be late again next time."
Chen Shuo put down the shopping bags and took out a supermarket receipt, handing it to Su Xiyan.
"This is the money for the stuff I bought, totals 207.85 yuan. Reimburse me for it. Also, there's the taxi fare for going to the supermarket, 40 yuan round trip. Let's settle it together!"
Su Xiyan took out three 100-yuan bills from her wallet and threw them on the coffee table.
"Here, take it."
Chen Shuo put away the money.
"You gave a few dozen extra, but I don't have cash on me, no change to give you. I'll send it to you via WeChat, I don't want to take advantage of you."
Su Xiyan's eyebrows raised slightly.
"No need for change, consider it your money for selling your body."
She had just finished speaking when Su Xiyan realized she misspoke. She meant the extra few dozen yuan was labor compensation for Chen Shuo.
She spoke too quickly, saying it was money for selling his body. But she was too lazy to explain.
Chen Shuo seized the opportunity to quip.
"I've said it before, I sell my skills not my body."
"Of course, money can make ghosts grind, I'm a greedy vampire, as long as the price is right, I'll do anything."
Su Xiyan leaned forward slightly, every movement oozed with threat: "Then what if I want to buy your life? How much? Name your price?"
Chen Shuo only felt a chill down his spine, and quickly took out his phone to send Su Xiyan the extra few dozen yuan via WeChat.
With all the supplies bought, the cleaning progressed much faster this time.
In about half an hour, Su Xiyan's home was refreshed.
Chen Shuo's parents had always worked outside, he had been a very independent person since childhood. Cleaning was no problem at all for him.
After the busy work, Chen Shuo took off the household gloves: "How is it? I'm done with the task, I can leave now, right?"
Su Xiyan was sitting on the sofa playing with her tablet. Her long, straight, fair legs stretched out casually, bare feet wearing slippers, exuded a lazy, casual beauty.
Looking at Su Xiyan in simple home clothes, Chen Shuo thought, with her figure and looks, she would still be very beautiful even wrapped in sackcloth.
Too bad she's so violent!!
Su Xiyan put down her tablet, walked around the house in her slippers inspecting things.
She wanted to pick faults on purpose to make things difficult for Chen Shuo.
But the house was just too clean and tidy, couldn't even find a single strand of hair.
The clock on the wall showed it was noon.
A thought came to Su Xiyan's mind: "I'm hungry, don't want to order takeout, you go cook me a meal."
Chen Shuo: "???"
"Su Xiyan you're going back on your word!"
"Didn't you say just cleaning is good enough? Now you want me to cook too??"
Su Xiyan gave a slight smug laugh.
"Chen Shuo, you need to understand, to me, you still have utilization value, you should feel happy about it."
"When you no longer have utilization value, you should know the consequences, right??"
Chen Shuo huffed in anger: "You're threatening me again!!"
Su Xiyan: "So what if I am??"
Chen Shuo's anger only lasted one second,
the next second, he seamlessly switched into puppy dog mode: "What do you want to eat? I'll go buy ingredients."
A fanciful thought came to Su Xiyan, she stretched lazily and said, "Staying home so long, I'm feeling a bit stifled, want to go out for some fresh air."
Chen Shuo boldly guessed: "You mean...you want to go with me to buy groceries??"
Su Xiyan gave a cold snort: "Humph! You have a problem with that??

nto another world, I bought a slave for the first time, never expecting the silver wolf girl to be so cute... Lin Feng: I know it's cold, but you don't have to sneak into my bed! Yuna: Just sharing body warmth, if you dare do anything naughty, I'll definitely...

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
