"Excuse me, can I take a look at that?"
A timid voice came from the side. The girl looked up and saw an overly delicate face.
The thought of her boyfriend being right next to her suddenly made the girl feel insecure. Just as she was about to refuse him, her eyes suddenly became unfocused.
This was the first time Xian Yanglan had used her vampire abilities. Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she lacked confidence that she could succeed.
The girl stiffly raised her hand and stuffed the book into her arms.
Xian Yanglan took the book, hurriedly said thank you, walked to the side, and stared at it intently.
The cover features exaggerated cartoon characters, a man and a woman embracing and kissing.
The four brightly colored words "Love Strategy" made Xian Yanglan freeze on the spot with a stiff expression.
She just wanted to verify whether the rumors circulating at school were true.
The answer is actually quite obvious.
For a whole month, Xiang Cong came to her house to pick up Yi Mu without fail, rain or shine. She saw it all.
On sunny days, they would ride bicycles together; on rainy days, they would wear matching rain boots, hold a large, heavy black umbrella, and stroll in the drizzle, their silhouettes so beautiful they seemed unreal.
Xian Yanglan dreamed of sharing an umbrella with Xiang Cong, his long, slender hands holding the umbrella handle, his wrist adorned with the couple's bracelet she had bought for him.
The bracelet doesn't need to be too expensive; just a simple chain is fine. The important thing is that the two people like each other.
Xian Yanglan had already decided not to make her relationship with Xiang Cong public at school, because that would inevitably cause trouble for the two of them.
She had considered so many things, but she never expected that Xiang Cong's footsteps would turn towards Yi Mu.
The two men walked proudly under the sun, unafraid of others' gazes.
Even if people point fingers and whisper, I don't care at all.
How could they find happiness so easily? She likes Xiang Cong, and wasn't he very gentle with her before?
When everyone else was bullying her, he stood up and drove them away.
She's already confessed her feelings, how can he start liking someone else halfway through!
In Xian Yanglan's world, if she works hard, others must see it and reward her.
She, such an introverted person, who lived in a snail's shell, mustered up her courage and stretched out her tentacles to tell Xiang Cong that she liked him.
How could he ignore her sincerity and like someone else?
And then there's Yimu; he must be jealous.
Xian Yanglan knew that Yi Mu liked her. At first, she was afraid of him, but after figuring out his personality, she gradually became less afraid.
She disliked Yi Mu, so she ignored all his advances and was even jealous of what Yi Mu had.
He is a noble vampire from a high-ranking family, with a good background and strong talent. At just over a thousand years old, he is already the heir to the Blood Emperor.
In contrast, her mother came from a humble background and, despite her beautiful appearance, was not well-regarded.
Xian Yanglan knew that she had a difficult personality and was hard to get along with, but even someone like her longed for love.
Yi Mu couldn't just use any means necessary to pursue the person she liked simply because her feelings for him weren't reciprocated.
What he did was utterly despicable and shameless.
In Xian Yanglan's mind, Yi Mu had become so repulsive that he was now completely detestable.
She wanted to talk to Yi Mu. If he could withdraw voluntarily, that would be best. If he was unwilling, Xian Yanglan wouldn't mind taking some drastic measures.
The vampire from Country S whom she had saved before promised her a condition.
He promised her an elder's seat as long as she opened the door and let her fellow countrymen in.
Xian Yanglan has no interest in power; all she needs is for Xiang Cong, who has been good to her, to return to her side.
