When Su Xiyan heard the words "vampire", her eyes lit up excitedly.
"A vampire? Great! I was just worrying about not being able to find any vampires to hunt!"
"It came to my door? How coincidental!"
Chen Shuo: "..."
"That's your reaction?"
Su Xiyan's eyebrows raised slightly: "Oh? What reaction should I have?"
Chen Shuo: "Shouldn't you praise me? Or ask me how I knew?"
Su Xiyan's expression was calm: "Alright then! Chen Shuo, would you please tell me how you knew there was a vampire in the kendo club?"
Chen Shuo complained: "You're too perfunctory! Can't you treat the intelligence officer who provided you with important information more seriously?"
Su Xiyan turned her face away and dismissed him: "If you don't want to say, then forget it. I want to sleep now, go back to your own room!"
She must be doing this on purpose!!
The aggrieved Chen Shuo talked to himself: "Just now a vampire called me."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiyan's gesture of dismissal paused: "A vampire called you?"
Chen Shuo nodded: "Yeah! Why else? I heard the sounds of wooden swords striking each other from the kendo club over the phone, and someone saying something like 'We must defeat that demon hunter from Nanli University in the friendly match'."
Su Xiyan said mockingly: "Your vampire organization has not contacted you for so long, I thought you were too weak and had been abandoned by them!"
"Give me the phone number. "
Chen Shuo took out his phone: "It was an empty number, probably a virtual dial-up. A single line of contact."
Su Xiyan was very disdainful: "As expected, just a negligible member of the vampire organization! They didn't even leave a contact for you."
"If I destroy you, I guess the vampire organization wouldn't even know."
Chen Shuo walked up with his angular chin held high, and put his neck in front of Su Xiyan: "Go on, put me out of my misery!"
Su Xiyan felt this cute little vampire was quite fun to play with, proud and dead set on keeping face, teasing him was quite relaxing.
Her fingers as white as green onions lightly hooked Chen Shuo's chin. Su Xiyan looked at him like prey in her palm: "To me, the day you have no more value is the day your time's up."
"You should feel honored to become a stepping stone on my way to becoming a legendary demon hunter, Su Xiyan."
Chen Shuo stood straight: "Don't forget, we are partners now."
Su Xiyan's eyes smiled: "So what?"
Chen Shuo also stretched out his fingers and hooked Su Xiyan's sharp little chin: "Partners should reciprocate!"
"Chen Shuo!!"
"You!!"
Just before Su Xiyan angrily lashed out, Chen Shuo had already fled the murderous place.
Su Xiyan wanted to chase him out, but felt her pajamas and robe were not very suitable, so she stopped.
Lying back in bed, Su Xiyan stared at the ceiling, but could not fall asleep no matter what.
It felt like...something was missing?
And her chin, which had been pinched by Chen Shuo, still felt weird.
After lying for half a day, she finally felt a little sleepy.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard Chen Shuo knocking on her door again: "Are you asleep?"
Su Xiyan: "What is it...?"
Chen Shuo: "I ran away too quickly just now and took your blanket with me."
"No wonder I felt uneasy all over, turns out there was an extra blanket on my bed."
So the missing blanket was why Su Xiyan felt like something was missing from her side.
Su Xiyan got out of bed barefooted, walked to the door, opened it a crack, swiftly took back her blanket, and closed the door with a bang.
The door almost smashed into Chen Shuo's nose standing outside.
How unappreciative!
He was nice enough to bring her blanket back, but she was still fierce with him!
Chen Shuo walked back to his room, when he heard Su Xiyan's voice behind him again.
"Starting tomorrow with the kendo club training, go to the kendo club right after school, don't be late."
She was serious??
Chen Shuo was just about to protest when he looked back and saw Su Xiyan had closed her door already, not even giving him a chance to refuse.
After all this commotion, it was already late into the night.
Chen Shuo tossed and turned in bed for a long time before finally falling into deep sleep.
The next day, the alarm clock rang several times before Chen Shuo reluctantly crawled out of bed. His soul was awake but his body was still clinging to the embrace of the bed.
Half an hour later, Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan, both with dark eye circles, went to class.
On the way there Su Xiyan dozed off in the passenger seat.
Unfortunately, as soon as she fell asleep, they arrived at the school gate.
Chen Shuo poked Su Xiyan’s arm: “Wake up, we’re almost late.”
Woken up, Su Xiyan inexplicably had morning temper, popped open her seatbelt as soon as she got off the car, walked quickly to the school gate, and suddenly turned around to blame Chen Shuo.
"It's all your fault! What was all that nonsense so late at night?! I didn't get enough sleep!"
After saying that, she swiped her access card without looking back and walked into the school.
The passing students around them instantly quieted down, as if time had stopped at that moment.
What just happened?
The aloof campus belle Su Xiyan was so angry!
But what was with that coquettish tone?
Why did it sound more like she was throwing a tantrum?
It must be an illusion!
Chen Shuo was left standing dumbfounded at the gate, looking confused.
Seeing the students around him staring in shock, Chen Shuo helplessly realized he was misunderstood by them again.
Under the complex gazes of envy, jealousy and hatred from the other students, Chen Shuo used the fastest speed in history to run from the school gate to the classroom.
As soon as he sat down, his three roommates crowded around him.
Lu Chen pushed up his glasses and asked in a low voice, "So, so? Chen Shuo, you’ve been living with the campus belle Su Xiyan for a while now, have you uncovered any valuable inside information?"
Chen Shuo asked back: "What would count as valuable information?"
Lu Chen grinned: "Like what kind of guy campus belle Su Xiyan likes?"
Chen Shuo thought for a moment: "I don't know what kind of guy she likes, but she definitely doesn’t like you three."
Lu Chen, Shen Xu, and Zhu Fei instantly deflated like eggplants that had been frosted.
"Could it be that campus belle Su already has a boyfriend?"
Chen Shuo shook his head: "No, not yet."
The three roommates’ eyes immediately lit up again: “As long as the campus belle doesn’t have a boyfriend, we still have hope!!”
“Shuo! You can’t just take our gifts without delivering something back!”
Before Chen Shuo could say anything, the teacher arrived then and everyone returned to their seats, ending the conversation.
On the podium, the teacher was lecturing.
Chen Shuo twirled a pen in his hand, not taking in a word the teacher said. His deep eyes seemed to conceal too much within.
