"Aunt, my last name is Xia."
"But you have half of Zhang's blood in your body."
"It's okay, don't worry." Xia Yuan patted Zhang Shiting's hand, "We are still young. Besides, you can do this task yourself."
"..." Zhang Shiting was speechless.
...
Ying Sitong came back from the bathroom and sat back in her seat.
Xia Yuan had some new understandings of vampires-
She can eat normal human food.
Vampires also have normal excretion needs.
At present, except for the change (true form), low body temperature, and the need to suck blood, there is not much difference from normal people.
From Xia Yuan's perspective-
When Ying Sitong bit the ribs, she bit them gently with her two small canine teeth. She felt hot and fanned her mouth with her hands, but she was reluctant to throw them away and tried hard to eat the food.
There was mist in her eyes, and her slender neck set off her perfect profile.
Such vampires are inexplicably a little cute.
"I feel relieved to see you two are so loving."
Just then, my aunt interrupted.
Xia Yuan turned around in surprise, with a stern face.
Which eye of yours saw that we are so loving?
"Ah~~ I also want to experience the feeling that you only have me in your eyes." Zhang Shiting made a crying gesture with her hands.
"Then go have a relationship." Xia Yuan said unhappily.
Zhang Shiting ignored his words, put down her chopsticks and looked at Ying Sitong silently.
"Sitong."
"Huh?" Ying Sitong's spareribs were already 70% complete, and she put down her chopsticks unwillingly.
"What do you like about this big fool in my family?" Zhang Shiting asked.
"Huh?" Ying Sitong was a little confused.
"You can't be a marriage of convenience, if you don't like each other?"
"Puff, cough cough..."
Xia Yuan, who was still drinking soup, choked.
"Ahaha, of course, of course not." Ying Sitong laughed awkwardly.
"Then what do you like about him?"
"Well, this..." Ying Sitong lowered her head and covered her mouth, thinking silently.
"If I say what I like about him-
Xia Yuan smells good."
"Ahem..." This time it was the aunt who almost choked on the tea.
"She said body fragrance, body fragrance." Xia Yuan hurriedly explained.
Ugh.
Zhang Shiting thought, you are such a disgrace, and you also have body fragrance?
"Yes, yes." Ying Sitong stuck out her tongue and almost accidentally said it was the smell of blood.
"He is a very, very important person in my life. Xia Yuan is the biggest motivation for me to live. If it weren't for him, my life would be missing a lot of things, no different from a beggar." Ying Sitong said.
Haha.
Xia Yuan thought, isn't it? I am just your food.
"It's great. This feeling of life and death." Zhang Shiting wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue, a little tearful.
Xia Yuan rolled his eyes at her, wondering if you have any misunderstanding about the four words [life and death depend on each other]?
"What about you? What do you like about her?" Zhang Shiting looked at Xia Yuan.
"Me? I don't like her... um..."
Xia Yuan snorted, and his foot was stepped on by Ying Sitong under the table.
"I just, I just can't leave her." Xia Yuan said expressionlessly and even a little sadly, "From the first time I met this person, we were destined to be inseparable. If something happened to her, I would die. I can't live without her in my life."
"If I have to say what I like about her," Xia Yuan searched silently in his mind, "Maybe it's--
She looks pretty cute, without changing her face."
Ying Sitong glared at him fiercely, puffing up his mouth angrily.
What do you mean by still? What do you mean by not changing your face?
"Wow..." The aunt couldn't help wiping her eyes, "This is the most touching love talk I have ever heard. There are not so many things like love. So, when you think that each other is the one who will accompany you for the rest of your life, it is enough."
...
After chatting for a while, Zhang Shiting had a certain understanding of the family situation of her future nephew's wife-in-law--
Ying Sitong is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage, so no parents are present today, which means that Zhang Shiting is the only parent of both parties.
She couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Ying Sitong and Xia Yuan are both miserable children, I hope they can cherish each other.
Zhang Shiting asked-
"By the way, how are you going to hold the wedding? Western or Chinese? Or both? I can help arrange it."
"Actually..."
Xia Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at her seriously.
Zhang Shiting's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition enveloped her whole body.
"You won't say that?"
"Si Tong and I discussed and decided not to hold a wedding."
"What?!" Zhang Shiting slammed the table and stood up, "How can this be possible? It only happens once in a lifetime, and we have given so many gifts before."
That's right.
Ying Si Tong nodded seriously, agreeing with Zhang Shiting's words very much.
Xia Yuan rolled his eyes at her.
You are still accepting red envelopes for a marriage of convenience, where is your conscience?
"Ahem. I mean--" Zhang Shiting stabilized her emotions and sat back in her chair, "The wedding is very important, it is a major event in life, it is better to hold it once, otherwise you will regret it later."
"This is the result of our unanimous discussion." Xia Yuan said seriously, "In fact, holding a wedding is just a formality. The most important thing is our own happiness. Whether we get blessings from others is not that important.
We want to keep everything simple, hold a wedding banquet, and invite some important relatives and friends to have a meal."
Zhang Shiting sat in the chair and thought for a long time.
"Okay." She nodded. "Since it is your joint decision, I can't say anything. You decide your own life events, and I respect your ideas."
...
On the way back, Xia Yuan and Ying Sitong walked side by side.
The halo of the street lamp stretched the shadows of the two people diagonally.
"Your aunt is so nice. I still envy you." Ying Sitong said.
"She is still good to me. But sometimes she is not very reliable."
After Xia Yuan finished speaking, he looked back at Ying Sitong and was suddenly touched.
This vampire has no family, perhaps because of this, he is particularly eager for a partner and a family relationship.
"Your aunt smells so good." Ying Sitong took a deep breath.
"It's just a professional habit," Xia Yuan replied expressionlessly, "She is a bit petty bourgeois at her age, and it's normal to spray some perfume."
Wait.
Xia Yuan suddenly turned around alertly.
"You're not talking about whose smell?"
"It seems that the blood of your family is very high-quality." Ying Sitong nodded with an obsessed look, "But yours is still of better quality."
Uh...
It's true.
"I'm telling you, don't try to hit on her." Xia Yuan stopped and held Ying Sitong's shoulders with both hands.
He stared at Ying Sitong's eyes vigilantly, "If you hurt my relatives..."
Ying Sitong was slightly stunned.
"I know, I know. It makes me feel like I have a deep hatred with you." She spread her hands, "She is your lifesaver."
"I'm not threatening you, I only have this one relative." Xia Yuan said, "I cherish her very much."
"Okay, I know." Ying Sitong's tone softened.
"Besides, her smell is really strong, it has been floating in the air, I have been very restrained, okay."
So the vampire's sense of smell is so sensitive that they can judge the smell of blood through the skin?
Xia Yuan nodded, silently memorized this information in his mind, and deepened his understanding of the vampires.
"Your aunt's period is coming."
"..."
