Su Xiyan looked at Chen Shuo with utter disbelief: "Chen Shuo! Can't you be a bit more serious?"
"I'm already really worried, but you're still so carefree and nonchalant."
Seeing Su Xiyan's anxious demeanor, Chen Shuo couldn't help but pinch her delicate little face: "Don't worry! I'm the King of Ghosts, those vampire hunters and the like are nothing to me."
"Besides, don't I still have you? You'll protect me, won't you?"
After saying that, Chen Shuo wrapped himself in the blanket like a fuzzy caterpillar, rolling and curling up next to Su Xiyan, resting his head on her slender thighs.
Su Xiyan looked down, her long, fair fingers gently threading through Chen Shuo's hair.
Chen Shuo's hair was relatively short, and each strand had a rather stiff and coarse texture, completely different from the soft, silky feel of a woman's hair.
Is this what a man's hair feels like?
Su Xiyan found it quite novel.
Chen Shuo really didn't take those vampire hunters at Su Xiyan's sister's wedding seriously.
In Su Xiyan's eyes, he was the King of Ghosts.
But in reality, he had already completely transcended the realm of the Ghost Saint!
And with the system's blessing, those vampire hunters posed no threat to Chen Shuo at all.
However, he did enjoy Su Xiyan's concern for him.
In the middle of the night, after a tiring day, Su Xiyan didn't sleep but came specifically to tell Chen Shuo about her relative's identity as a vampire hunter.
This concern and trust warmed Chen Shuo's heart.
The feeling of being cared for is truly wonderful!
And being cared for by such a beautiful, aloof goddess is even better!
Chen Shuo leaned against Su Xiyan's thighs, surrounded by her scent.
The fragrance of her body wash, shampoo, and body lotion were all quite familiar to him. Combined with her favorite perfume, it formed a unique aroma deeply ingrained in Chen Shuo's heart.
"Alright, go to sleep now!" After sharing her worries with Chen Shuo, Su Xiyan was reassured by him and decided to return to her own room to sleep.
But Chen Shuo's head was still resting on her thighs.
Hearing Su Xiyan say she was leaving, Chen Shuo reached out and hugged her thighs.
"If you leave, who's going to keep my bed warm for me?"
"The weather's gotten colder again, dear lady, won't you lend me your embrace to keep me warm?"
"I'll return it to you next year when it's warmer."
Chen Shuo's eyes gazed at Su Xiyan, filled with a warm, gentle glow.
A handsome, sweet-talking little puppy brother with hidden talents - who wouldn't be charmed by him?
Su Xiyan felt she couldn't bear to reject Chen Shuo like this.
But she couldn't just easily agree, could she?
As the dating expert Cheng Xinran had said, never let a man obtain you too easily.
Anything obtained too easily would never be truly cherished!
Just as she was about to be mesmerized by Chen Shuo, Su Xiyan remembered Cheng Xinran's words and immediately snapped out of it.
Chen Shuo wants it, so she should just give in?
No way!
She wouldn't let Chen Shuo obtain her so easily!!
With that thought, Su Xiyan's eyes regained their former icy demeanor.
She pulled her thighs away from Chen Shuo's grasp, stood up, and straightened her fluffy robe: "Go to sleep early, and wake up early to make breakfast."
"Tomorrow morning, I want to have rolled pancakes and red bean porridge, so remember to wake up early to cook the porridge."
With that, she strode away with her long legs, swiftly leaving Chen Shuo's room.
Her cold, straight back disappeared outside Chen Shuo's door.
The door she closed with a bang resounded loudly.
Chen Shuo sat on the bed, feeling a chill sweep over him.
Without the warmth of the older sister's embrace, this autumn night suddenly felt bitterly cold.
Chen Shuo couldn't help but tighten his little blanket around himself, thinking that he really was too slow to react. Su Xiyan had already lain on his bed, but he failed to take any further action??
Didn't he say he'd let Su Xiyan take the initiative?
Chen Shuo, Chen Shuo, you really need to stay patient!
He imagined Su Xiyan's appearance when she couldn't resist taking the initiative, with a glimmer of what Su Xiyan called "garbage color" in his eyes.
Su Yuanying came to Su City and became the overall leader of the vampire hunters there.
The old factions that were still fixated on Tang Zhiyuan were now all under Su Yuanying's command, overwhelmed by her formidable and awe-inspiring presence.
It must be said that Su Yuanying's arrival brought an unprecedented unity among the vampire hunters in Su City.
Perhaps this was the power of personal charisma!
In the eyes of the other vampire hunters in Su City, Su Yuanying and Tang Zhiyuan were two completely different types of leaders.
Tang Zhiyuan advocated indiscriminate killing of all vampires, regardless of whether they were good or evil, employing an approach of total eradication!
But Su Yuanying had her own ideas. She advised her subordinate vampire hunters that, while protecting themselves, they could investigate the backgrounds of the vampires they hunted. If there were kind, harmless vampires who had never hurt anyone, they could be spared for her use.
As for what exactly she intended to use them for, Su Yuanying didn't elaborate.
Perhaps she was leaving a way out for that young man named Chen Shuo.
No one dared to question or challenge Su Yuanying's decision.
Only Su Xiyan and Cheng Xinran knew that Su Yuanying was a complete woman-obsessed maniac! For the sake of her daughter's lifelong happiness, Su Yuanying was willing to change some of the old rules for vampire hunters.
No one in Su City dared to question or resist her actions. However, in this era of the internet, Su Yuanying's decision soon caused a great stir among vampire hunters in neighboring regions.
This might just be a new trend!
The ancient pattern between vampire hunters and vampires was about to change once again!
The photos of Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan taken at the bridal salon were quickly displayed on various LED advertising screens in a loop.
Anyone who knew Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan recognized them in the ads.
Su Xiyan's car was taken for maintenance, so after school, instead of taking a cab, Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan walked shoulder to shoulder in the evening glow towards Sea Coast Apartments.
It had been a long time since they had taken a leisurely stroll like this together.
Su Xiyan's phone kept ringing non-stop, until she found it annoying and switched it to silent mode.
Chen Shuo asked, "Your phone keeps ringing, why don't you check it?"
Su Xiyan frowned, "The people I know are just too nosy."
"It's just an advertisement with us taking bridal photos, but so many people have nothing better to do than to ask about it?"
Chen Shuo asked curiously, "Ask what?"
Su Xiyan replied, "Of course, they're asking if we're actually dating! Some gossipy elders even asked when we're getting married."
Chen Shuo stopped in his tracks and looked at Su Xiyan earnestly, "Why don't we just make it official on our social media then?"
+【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.
