Chapter 303 : A Rose Wedding 29 (1/2)
Once Zuo Lie had left, Shi Sheng immediately chased after Xi Yin. “What were you going to say just now?”
The tips of his ears suddenly flushed as he shifted his gaze. “We’ll talk after we go back.”
No matter how Shi Sheng asked, Xi Yin didn’t answer, so she could only sulkily drive back to the villa.
The night wind brought the thick scent of flowers with it, as it travelled through the window and buffeted against Shi Sheng’s face.
The entire car was filled with the thick fragrance.
Shi Sheng drove with one hand on the steering wheel while propping up her chin with the other, her thoughts unknown.
“Someone’s following us.” Xi Yin spoke suddenly.
Shi Sheng blinked and put down the hand that was supporting her chin. She looked in the rear-view mirror.
On the shadowed little path, she could vaguely make out the outline of a car in the distance behind them. The other party was probably trying to keep their presence hidden, for they didn’t turn on their car lights.
But at this moment, the car suddenly picked up speed as if planning to ram into them.
Dark shadows rustled past in the surrounding flower bushes.
“Someone’s here to deliver me their lives?” Shi Sheng stopped the car and turned to Xi Yin. “Get out of the car and stand a bit further back. Don’t get blood on you.”
Xi Yin, “…” ‘Why are these words so queer?’
The two swiftly got out of the car and sped off in different directions. The next second, the vehicle behind theirs smashed into their car, causing a loud crash as both exploded, making sparks fly everywhere and light up the surroundings.
Several shadows shot towards Shi Sheng.
She waved her sword, causing the fastest shadow to collapse to the ground. Their comrade’s fall made the rest hesitate.
Shi Sheng wouldn’t do something stupid like wait for them to react—her sword was like the Grim Reaper’s scythe as she rapidly reaped the lives of the other shadows.
The final shadow soon fell and turned to ash.
‘Vampires…these idiots. They’re really underestimating me(bbb) if they only sent this many to deal with me(bbb).’
Shi Sheng leapt out of the rose bush and onto the road.
Xi Yin stood in a spot where the light from the flames couldn’t reach, staring at the fiercely burning car wreckage with an apathetic gaze.
“Looks like we’re going to have to walk back.” Shi Sheng’s voice spoke from beside him. He turned his head slightly to look at her.
At that moment, the flames flickered brighter, allowing Shi Sheng to see the streak of gold that flashed across his eyes. He took her hand in his. “I’ll give you a present tomorrow.”
“What present? I want you more—how about you wrap yourself up and gift yourself to me?”
“Girls have to be more modest.”
“Not as if modesty is edible. Besides, what’s wrong with saying I want my own man?”
Xi Yin chuckled lowly. Their figures slowly walked away, disappearing into the darkness of the night.
When they returned to the villa, Xi Yin went to shower first while Shi Sheng typed away at her laptop. Once Xi Yin arrived, Shi Sheng had already uploaded the latest chapter.
Don’t ask her why there was internet available in the vampiric territories. Vampires kept up with the times; it’d be weirder if they didn’t have internet.
“Go take a shower.” Xi Yin took some sleepwear out from the wardrobe and handed them to Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng shut her laptop and rubbed Xi Yin’s hands for a bit before taking the clothes from him and going to shower.
Xi Yin rubbed the back of his hand and lowered his head, chuckling, before lifting the blankets and lying on the bed.
By the time Shi Sheng emerged from the bathroom, Xi Yin appeared to be asleep, causing her to sigh.
What a hard life she had.
She gently climbed into bed and just as she laid down, Xi Yin scooted over to snuggle his slightly cool body against hers.
After Shi Sheng rubbed him a bit… ‘Holy fuck, he’s not wearing any clothes? And the feel isn’t bad either… Let’s rub a bit longer.’
Just as her hands were about to move lower, Xi Yin suddenly flipped over and pressed her underneath him, kissing her without warning.
With Xi Yin taking this much initiative, Shi Sheng didn’t stand on ceremony and ate him clean to her heart’s content.
Perhaps because it was his first time, Xi Yin was rather unfamiliar and tense at first. But he soon got better.
What a lovely night it was; the ground lit by a silver light.
