You, You're Really Useless

"Ah!"

The next morning, while Chen Shuo was having a pleasant conversation with the Dream God, a startled scream woke him from his slumber.

Chen Shuo rubbed his sleepy eyes, full of confusion: "What's wrong?"

"Chen Shuo, tell me honestly, did you do anything to me last night?"

Su Xiyan asked with a frightened scream, covering her chest with both hands, her face full of shock.

She remembered being in the Vampire's lair last night, but her head had felt dizzy, and everything went black. When she regained consciousness, she found herself in an elegant room.

Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a hotel, which made Su Xiyan even more unsettled. In her panic, she let out a loud cry.

This was her first time staying in a hotel with a man.

Even though Chen Shuo was her boyfriend, the fact that this situation had actually occurred triggered some instinctive reactions from her deep-rooted feminine psychology.

Chen Shuo was still completely bewildered - he was fully dressed, and so was she, so what could he possibly have done?

"Heaven knows, I really didn't do anything!"

Chen Shuo raised two fingers, with a serious expression. It had taken quite some effort just to bring Su Xiyan here last night.

During this time, Chen Shuo had also used his energy to help cleanse the cold yin energy from Su Xiyan's body.

Cold yin energy entering the body was no ordinary matter - once it enters, it begins to merge with the human body.

Moreover, Su Xiyan had stayed in there for quite a while and absorbed a lot of cold yin energy.

Fortunately, his protective energy had blocked some of it; otherwise, Su Xiyan wouldn't have just fainted - she could have suffered fundamental damage.

After arriving at the hotel, Chen Shuo immediately began extracting the cold yin energy from Su Xiyan's body bit by bit.

As a result, after finishing, Chen Shuo only managed to give Su Xiyan a quick wipe-down with clean water before collapsing into sleep.

Chen Shuo recounted everything that happened last night in detail, and Su Xiyan's expression became complex after hearing it.

"What? So you just went to sleep?"

Su Xiyan still seemed skeptical, and Chen Shuo wore an expression of helplessness: "Of course! Heaven knows, just look at your clothes - do they look like they've been taken off?"

Su Xiyan looked down at herself; her clothes were neat, aside from some stains, and didn't look like they had been removed.

Seeing this, however, Su Xiyan became somewhat dejected, her emotions surging: "You're really useless!"

This sudden statement from Su Xiyan left Chen Shuo confused.

He had spent tremendous effort to save her, and he hadn't even complained about it. He had thought Su Xiyan would at least thank him.

Not only was there no thanks, but now he was getting scolded?

"Wait, how am I useless?" Chen Shuo was completely lost.

When Chen Shuo asked this, some images flashed through Su Xiyan's mind, and her face inexplicably turned red.

"Are you even a man? You're asking me about this? Shouldn't you be asking yourself?"

Su Xiyan pouted with her cheeks puffed up, and seeing Chen Shuo's bewildered expression, she felt even more exasperated.

She couldn't believe that in a situation with a man and woman alone in a hotel, with her unconscious no less, Chen Shuo had done absolutely nothing.

For a moment, Su Xiyan even wondered if she lacked charm, which was why Chen Shuo hadn't made a move.

To disprove this theory, Su Xiyan steeled herself. She beckoned to Chen Shuo with her finger: "Come here, kiss me."

"Huh? Now?"

Chen Shuo was startled, caught off guard by Su Xiyan's sudden action.

Seeing Chen Shuo frozen like a dead duck, Su Xiyan hesitated no longer and took the initiative, moving forward to plant a kiss on the corner of his mouth.

Feeling the sweetness of Su Xiyan's warm lips, Chen Shuo paused for a moment before actively responding.

At their passionate age, with such an opportunity presented, how could Chen Shuo restrain himself?

Just as Chen Shuo held Su Xiyan tightly in his arms, about to kiss her passionately, the sudden vibration of his phone interrupted their beautiful moment.

"Wait, let me answer this call!"

Chen Shuo awkwardly interrupted everything, pulled out his phone, and saw it was from his mother.

Su Xiyan had been somewhat resentful, but when she saw it was Chen Shuo's mother calling, she contained her emotions.

"Hello, Mom, why are you calling so early?"

Chen Shuo adopted a lazy attitude to cover up what had just happened.

"What do you think? Did you oversleep? Aren't we supposed to visit Xiyan's family today? Bring Xiyan back quickly - after your father and I finish buying the gifts, we'll head out right away."

Xu Mei on the other end urged Chen Shuo while shouting to Chen's father in front of her: "Hey, get some more of that wine too - one bottle isn't enough, we need a whole case!"

Hearing his mother's nervous excitement about various preparations, Chen Shuo couldn't help but feel both amused and touched.

Parents' love for their children is truly boundless - they were going to such lengths for his sake.

However, buying so many things really wasn't necessary, given the Su family's wealth and status.

"Mom, there's no need to buy so much. It's not just about carrying it all - the Su family doesn't lack for anything."

Chen Shuo kindly reminded her, only to receive another scolding from Xu Mei on the other end: "Have you lost your mind from sleeping? It doesn't matter if they have everything - we can't skimp on proper etiquette."

"What? Even if my son is marrying into their family, as parents, we still need to do what we should. We must at least bring the best we can afford - that's how we show our respect for Xiyan."

Faced with his mother's loud reprimand, Chen Shuo could only repeatedly agree.

Su Xiyan, listening to the conversation on the phone, felt an indescribable joy in her heart.

This must be what it feels like to be truly valued. Although Su Xiyan didn't care about the financial aspects at all,

what Chen Shuo's parents were doing touched her deeply.

Being part of such a family - wasn't that a kind of happiness in itself?

The phone call finally ended with Chen Shuo's repeated apologies. After hanging up, he didn't dare delay any longer.

They were being urged to hurry, and as the main parties involved, they naturally needed to get moving quickly.

After a quick tidying up, Chen Shuo prepared to leave with Su Xiyan to meet his parents.

The meeting between both sets of parents was a big deal that needed to be taken seriously. Of course, Chen Shuo also planned to use this opportunity to tell Su Yuanying about what happened in the secret cave.

Perhaps Su Yuanying could offer him some reasonable advice and help.
