"No, my heart is as clear as day and night, I swear to heaven and earth! I'm perfectly fine, why would I lie?" Chen Shuo was at a loss for words, feeling like a scholar confronted by soldiers.
No matter how he tried to explain, in the other person's mouth, his explanations were just cover-ups and made-up stories.
"Huh, who knows? You're not bad-looking, and you're quite tall. I don't believe no girl has ever pursued you," Su Xiyan said, her pearly teeth lightly biting her red lips.
She still remembered the first time she met Chen Shuo. It was because of his handsome looks, coupled with his appearance that resembled a sunny, outgoing boy, that Su Xiyan felt sympathy for him.
It's worth noting that she was the Campus Beauty of the school, the center of attention. She was surrounded by countless men, and she had seen many extremely handsome ones.
While Chen Shuo might not be the absolute best, he was certainly among the top contenders.
With his looks, it seemed impossible that no girl had ever been interested in him.
So... in Su Xiyan's mind, Chen Shuo must have, definitely had.
Chen Shuo found Su Xiyan's thoughts both amusing and frustrating. He was annoyed that his sincere words weren't believed, but he was slightly pleased to receive Su Xiyan's approval of his appearance.
"Well, if you say that, then can't I assume that a Campus Beauty like you has dated quite a few guys?" Chen Shuo knew that mere explanations wouldn't work, so he decided to counter with a question.
Fight magic with magic!
"You..." Su Xiyan was indignant. Although she indeed had many pursuers, for Su Xiyan, she had only one focus all these years - to become an excellent Demon Hunter. So, she had never paid attention to matters of love.
It wasn't until Chen Shuo's appearance that she experienced a significant change in her life, allowing her to experience the instinct of love.
It was precisely for this reason that she chose Chen Shuo, accepted him, and let him become a part of her life.
Even though Chen Shuo's identity was special, she still resolutely chose him.
But now, Chen Shuo was suggesting that she had dated many others, which infuriated Su Xiyan: "Don't you dare spout nonsense! Besides you, there's been no one else."
After saying this, Su Xiyan felt a bit shy. She was embarrassed that she hadn't been in contact with any men for so many years.
Even though she was never short of admirers, her personality was just like that. If she didn't want to interact with someone, even if they stuck to her side like glue or acted like a devoted fan, she wouldn't give them a second glance.
"Exactly! If even a Campus Beauty like you is like this, why can't I be the same? I'm someone who has dedicated my life to academic pursuits," Chen Shuo declared righteously, leaving Su Xiyan at a loss for words.
However, after hearing Chen Shuo's response, Su Xiyan felt a subtle stirring in her heart.
For some reason, she cared deeply about whether Chen Shuo had any other girls.
Knowing that she was the only one for Chen Shuo made her both happy and excited. But as a girl, she knew she had to hide her emotions well.
After calming herself down, Su Xiyan feigned a cold demeanor and said, "Who knows? You have such thick skin, you can lie without even blushing. I can't easily believe you."
Without hesitation, Chen Shuo raised two fingers and said, "Then I'll swear an oath! If I've spoken even half a lie, then I'll..."
Before Chen Shuo could finish his oath, Su Xiyan's hand quickly covered his mouth, her expression slightly anxious. "You! I just said I didn't believe you, why are you swearing an oath?"
Faced with Su Xiyan's nervousness, Chen Shuo shook his head and smiled. "Isn't it to make you believe me? Besides, I haven't done anything wrong, so I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door."
"I said you're the only one, and that means you're the only one. Now, in the future, always."
Chen Shuo's words were heartfelt. On such a moonlit night, accompanied by the gentle lake breeze, how could such sweet talk not move one's heart?
Su Xiyan's body trembled slightly as she smiled gently. "Are you serious? You're not just trying to make me happy?"
"Of course I'm serious. It's truer than pearls."
"Alright then. This is what you said. If one day I find out you've fallen for another woman, I'll make sure you beg for life but can't live, beg for death but can't die!"
Su Xiyan said, her eyes narrowing into slits. This made Chen Shuo uneasy. "Wait, I'm curious, what exactly does 'beg for life but can't live, beg for death but can't die' mean?"
"You want to know?" Su Xiyan's lips curled into a smile.
"Yeah, can you give me a hint?" Chen Shuo nodded repeatedly.
"If you dare to do anything to betray me, I'll snip you! Make sure you can never do anything to betray me again." As Su Xiyan spoke, she made a scissor gesture with her hand.
Chen Shuo instinctively recoiled, a chill running down his spine making his whole body go weak.
If he hadn't been through numerous trials and tribulations, he would have been truly frightened by Su Xiyan.
"You're not joking, are you?" Chen Shuo's lips twitched, his heart palpitating.
"Do I look like I'm joking? If you don't believe me, you're welcome to try," Su Xiyan said nonchalantly.
Chen Shuo didn't dare to try. No way, that was his manhood at stake, and Su Xiyan was not a woman to be trifled with. She was formidable, and based on Chen Shuo's understanding of her, she was always a woman of her word.
If that day ever came, he would surely be in trouble.
"Hehe, look at what you're saying. Am I that kind of person? Don't worry, you're the only one for me in this lifetime. One is enough."
Chen Shuo patted his chest, making promises. He didn't want to risk his future happiness.
Besides, with such a Campus Beauty as his wife, what more could a husband ask for?
No matter how charming other women might be, how could they compare to Su Xiyan?
"You'd better be telling the truth!"
"Of course I'm telling the truth. Stop overthinking. Just stay by my side, and I'll make you the happiest woman in the world."
Chen Shuo held Su Xiyan tightly, speaking with utmost sincerity.
In such close proximity, both of their breathing became increasingly rapid. Under the moonlight, the distance between them grew smaller and smaller.
Feeling her breath on his face, Chen Shuo's heart surged with emotion as he slowly leaned in. Su Xiyan seemed to cooperate, slowly closing her eyes, quietly waiting.
"Clap, clap, clap!"
Just as the two were merely half a foot apart, a round of applause interrupted their intimate moment.
"What a lovely scene of romance, truly enviable."
The couple looked towards the sound and saw a woman in a qipao standing not far from them by a willow tree, staring intently in their direction.
Su Xiyan hurriedly broke away, standing up from the ground with a face flushed red, not knowing how to react.
As for Chen Shuo, his face darkened, not for any other reason but because he immediately recognized the identity of the newcomer.
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
