To be a vulgar man, greedy for money and womanizing.

"I feel like it! Haven't you noticed? When classmate Chen trains with senior sister Su, even when I'm on the sidelines I can smell the sour stench of romance."

"I wonder what it feels like to date a great beauty like senior sister Su?"

"The boys at our school are going to collectively lose their crushes!"

Apart from a few girls who were obsessed with shipping them, there were also girls who held different opinions.

"I don't think it's very likely. Not that classmate Chen isn't good enough, just that he and senior sister Su seem not to be the same type of person."

"I also feel that at certain moments, Chen Shuo is deliberately keeping his distance from senior sister Su."

"But senior sister Su looks quite proactive!"

"Whether senior sister Su and classmate Chen are dating or not, ever since classmate Chen arrived, our demon head senior sister has become much gentler!"

"Yeah, that's right!"

The girls unanimously affirmed that as long as Chen Shuo continued to be a practice partner at the Kendo Club, the members of the Kendo Club would continue to have good days.

As a result, Chen Shuo unexpectedly became the Kendo Club’s mascot.

After the members of the Kendo Club had all left, Su Xiyan checked over the things they would need for the friendly competition at the Kendo Club on Monday, from documents to protective gear, helmets, wooden swords etc. for each member of the competing teams, inspecting each one carefully.

Since Chen Shuo wasn’t part of the Kendo Club and didn’t even know its rules, there wasn’t much he could help with.

He could only sit on the bench and watch Su Xiyan busying about.

Su Xiyan held a checklist in her hand, checking each item carefully and meticulously, her eyes bright and utterly serious.

Outside the window, the setting sun descended in the west, its golden rays streaming through the glass, bathing Su Xiyan's figure, as if outlining her in a layer of gold.

At that moment, Chen Shuo felt his heart suddenly pound heavily.

By the time he reacted, his heartbeat had already returned to normal.

Chen Shuo had to admit, a serious girl could be very charming!

Once all the preparatory work had been verified, Su Xiyan finally left with Chen Shuo.

Chen Shuo drove while Su Xiyan sat in the passenger seat, both silent throughout the journey.

She looked extremely tired and sleepy, her long eyelashes fluttering up and down.

Chen Shuo didn't disturb Su Xiyan's rest, turning down the music in the car and driving as steadily as possible.

Su Xiyan fell asleep, her little head leaning against the passenger seat.

Just then they were at a red light that would last a few tens of seconds. Chen Shuo stopped the car, undid his seatbelt, and leaned over to Su Xiyan's side to recline her seat back a little.

The space inside the car was quite cramped to begin with, and Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan were both rather tall.

As he moved, Chen Shuo's nose almost grazed the protruding part of Su Xiyan's shapely figure.

She wore athletic outerwear, the zipper pulled up to just the right spot.

Chen Shuo felt that the few seconds it took him to recline the seat seemed extremely long.

He could barely breathe.

Luckily he didn't wake Su Xiyan, or this woman would misunderstand his good intentions again.

From the school to Haiyi Apartment was a drive of no more than ten-odd minutes.

Su Xiyan had just dozed off and Chen Shuo decided to drive around a few more laps to let Su Xiyan rest properly.

Traffic was heavier on the city's main roads, so he should head towards the riverside avenue! There were fewer cars there, and the sunset was beautiful too.

The white AMG passed the entrance to the basement carpark of Haiyi Apartment without entering, continuing south instead.

The colors of summer sunsets were especially gorgeous.

The sun had already hidden below the horizon, leaving only crimson afterglow that seemed to set half the sky aflame.

The colors of the clouds glowed perfectly graded hues, resembling a vibrant oil painting.

Perhaps because of the beautiful scenery, people's moods would turn brighter too.

Chen Shuo slowed down the car, appreciating the sunset outside the window, then looking at the sleeping Su Xiyan by his side. A hint of gentleness crept into his handsome features, still brimming with youth despite the setting sun.

Life, though imperfect in many ways, was still beautiful!

Su Xiyan didn't know when she had awakened.

Gazing at Chen Shuo's chiseled side profile, she suddenly asked, "Chen Shuo, if you reverse your vampire bloodline one day, what will you do?"

Chen Shuo thought for a while before laughing. "That feels like a very distant issue!"

"If that day really comes, I'll be an ordinary human, greedy for wealth and lust."

Su Xiyan looked at Chen Shuo joking around and the sunset shining on his face. Despite the descending rays, his face still brimmed with youth like the morning sun.

The picturesque scene didn't last long before Chen Shuo asked Su Xiyan seriously, "How much longer before you become a Legendary Demon Hunter?"

"I'm still waiting for you to reverse your bloodline! From when I met you until now, you've only hunted one vampire. Can't you kill more, earn more points, and rank up faster?"

"It's like you're grinding levels and monsters in a game. So much time has passed and you're still in the same place!"

Su Xiyan said, "Soon. At the friendly match that day, I will definitely hunt a vampire."

Chen Shuo heaved a sigh of relief. "That's more like it. My efforts over this time accompanying your practice won't go to waste."

Su Xiyan spoke as arrogantly as always. "Don't assume I'm hunting vampires for your sake. Even without you, my goal is still to become a Legendary Demon Hunter."

Chen Shuo retorted, "In that case, hurry up and achieve your dream! It'd be good for you and for me too, right?"

Su Xiyan's brows quirked upwards slightly. "Oh? You're in such a rush?"

"Isn't there a vampire right in front of me?"

"Since you can't wait, why not sacrifice yourself for the greater good? Contribute a point or two for me?"

As Su Xiyan spoke, she resembled a cat toying with a mouse in its paws, as if ready to devour the weak creature in the next moment.

Chen Shuo said, "...Alright alright, I shouldn't have brought this up or rushed you."

Seeing Chen Shuo's sulky look, the smile at the corner of Su Xiyan's mouth was as warm as the sunset.

It was Sunday and Chen Shuo was still asleep when Su Xiyan woke him up.

"Where's breakfast?"

Chen Shuo rubbed his eyes. "Not sleeping in is the greatest disrespect towards weekends!!"

"Take a look if there's anyone else in school who gets up to eat breakfast on Sundays."

Su Xiyan wore comfortable, loose-fitting home clothes with her hair down, free of makeup. Bare-faced, she resembled a water lily, every move exuding a cool aura.
