After saying this, Chen Shuo took out a gold card and handed it to the female shop assistant: "No password."
The shop assistant accepted it with a bow and went to process the payment for Chen Shuo. Meanwhile, Chen Shuo raised his head high under Su Xiyan's surprised gaze: "What? Don't you like it?"
Su Xiyan shook her head repeatedly, full of joy: "No, I love it!"
"That's good, I'm glad you like it. I see the things over there are quite nice too, why don't we take them all?"
Chen Shuo pointed to a wall right in front of them, which was covered with various bags and fashion accessories.
Just in terms of quantity, there must have been over a hundred items.
If you were to add up the prices, it would be quite an astronomical sum.
Not only was Su Xiyan shocked, but even the shop assistant beside them was stunned.
This... had they encountered a god of wealth? Someone who casually decides to take an entire wall of products?
Although they had seen all kinds of extravagant customers before, some who generously spent millions, taking all the styles they liked.
But this was the first time they had seen someone wanting to take an entire wall in one go.
"Is this the understated life of the rich?"
"Oh my god, are there really men like this in the world? Why have I never met one? Heaven, please be kind and let me meet such a true soulmate too!"
"I'm so envious, if I were that girl, I would marry him on the spot and bear him a bunch of little monkeys!"
The female shop assistants couldn't help but whisper among themselves, their eyes lingering on Chen Shuo, unable to look away.
However, they still had some self-awareness. Although they could be considered beautiful in terms of figure and looks, compared to Su Xiyan, they were like stars in the sky compared to the bright moon.
The gap between them was obvious without saying, and feeling inferior, they could only admire from afar, not daring to harbor any inappropriate thoughts.
"Did you win the lottery? Spending like this, do you think money grows on trees?"
Seeing Chen Shuo's willful words, Su Xiyan couldn't help but tease.
"You don't need to worry about that. If I dare to do it, I can afford it. Anyway, today I'm determined to get rid of this 'glass rooster' label!"
Chen Shuo had a resolute look on his face, and Su Xiyan couldn't help but giggle.
She didn't know what to say about Chen Shuo, but his intentions were enough. Even if it was a typical straight man's way of expressing himself, what was wrong with being straightforward?
At least when it came to feelings, Chen Shuo was quite serious.
"Alright, I think I've bought enough for today, there's no need for such revenge spending! Besides, where are we going to put all this? You're not going to buy me a house just to store everything, are you?"
Su Xiyan joked, but her words made Chen Shuo consider seriously. He rubbed his chin, thinking carefully: "I hadn't thought about it before, but now that you mention it, it's not a bad idea."
Su Xiyan was a bit confused by Chen Shuo's words, doubting for a moment if she had heard correctly.
But when she looked at Chen Shuo again, seeing his serious calculating expression, she couldn't help but feel a bit anxious: "I was just joking earlier, please don't take it seriously!"
"I didn't think it was a joke. To be honest, I do need to get us a house. Otherwise, relying on you for everything makes me look like I'm living off you. No, no, that won't do!"
Chen Shuo muttered to himself. Before this, he had never considered these issues.
But at this moment, prompted by Su Xiyan, he realized these problems. Without a car or a house, how could he ask Su Xiyan to spend her life with him?
Although the Su family was wealthy and powerful, and probably didn't care about his small contributions, some things are what they are - you either have them or you don't.
"Are... are you serious? Although Su City is only a third or fourth-tier small city, the price of a house is still not cheap!"
Su Xiyan thought Chen Shuo was getting carried away. Su City, located at the World Trade Center and well-connected, was destined to have decent housing prices.
Even a small apartment would cost several million, and that's just for an ordinary one. If you wanted a villa-type house, it would cost tens of millions.
And that's just the purchase price. The subsequent decoration, furniture, and so on would all be significant expenses.
If you add all these up, it would be an astronomical figure.
"Do I not look serious? Come on, let's not just think about it, let's take action. Let's go right away."
Chen Shuo said as he was about to pull Su Xiyan away, but fortunately, the female shop assistant behind them called out: "Sir, your card."
After taking the card from the shop assistant, Chen Shuo was about to leave with Su Xiyan, but just as he was about to move, he stopped in his tracks and looked at Su Xiyan beside him: "Did you sense that?"
"Yes, there's a Vampire! And it's very powerful, if I'm not mistaken, it's beyond high-level."
Su Xiyan's expression was grave. It's worth noting that beyond high-level was the Demon King.
Su City was already in chaos with one Demon King, and they still had no way to deal with that Demon King even now.
Now encountering another Demon King in Rong City made Su Xiyan uneasy.
One Demon King could throw an entire city into turmoil; if they were to join forces... the consequences would be unimaginable.
"What do you think? Any ideas?"
"This is outside our jurisdiction. If we act rashly, it might cause some unnecessary misunderstandings."
Su Xiyan sensed it but after all, they weren't in Su City, and she didn't have direct authority here.
"You Demon Hunters are so troublesome, with all these rules. Now that there's a Vampire, just tell me, are we going to deal with it or not?"
Chen Shuo placed the choice in Su Xiyan's hands. If Su Xiyan didn't plan to handle this matter, he would pretend it never happened.
For a moment, Su Xiyan was at a loss, hesitating and unable to make a decision.
Chen Shuo didn't rush her, patiently waiting on the side. As time passed, Chen Shuo noticed something was amiss.
The other party was getting closer and closer to their position. If it was just a coincidence, that might be possible, but as they got closer and closer, Chen Shuo couldn't help but think of something.
Could they be coming for him? At first, Chen Shuo had a glimmer of hope, but as they got closer, he realized the seriousness of the situation.
There was only one thing he didn't understand. He had masked all his aura, and the other party's strength seemed to be only at the level of a half-step Demon King, so how could they have discovered his whereabouts?
Theoretically, it shouldn't be possible.
Unless, Chen Shuo thought, his gaze falling on Su Xiyan.
Yes, that must be it. The Vampire's target probably wasn't him, but Su Xiyan!
Why would it be Su Xiyan? Chen Shuo couldn't figure it out, but there was no time to think it through. The enemy was right in front of them.
Regardless of whether Su Xiyan would act or not, if the other party dared to have any ill intentions towards Su Xiyan, he would let them know who the real boss of Vampires was!

Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)

+【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!
