The Counterattack Plan of A Villain With Ten Thousand Fans - Chapter 117

Chapter 117

Just as Ling Chunann had planned, he ran away from home, albeit a month later than initially intended. The reason? "098, do vampires also carry dragon genes?" Ling Chunann rubbed his slightly sore back. Though his body's healing was impeccable, the mere thought of the man's vigor in bed made his legs wobble as he walked.

"Host, it's because he met you that he's become like this," 098 complimented aptly, adding, "But are you sure he won't follow you after you've left? Vampires can sense their partner's location at any time after becoming mates. If so, I don't see the point of running away."

Ling Chunann assured, "I guarantee he won't come looking for me within a month."

Thinking back to the note Ling Chunann left before leaving, 098 had no response.

Yuan Congshu hadn't expected that after merely attending a short video conference, his beloved would vanish without a trace. He couldn't sense Ling Chunann's presence at all, only finding a brief note in the room: "I need some time alone, I don't wish to see you for now."

Yuan Congshu read the note over and over, expressionless before finally sighing and carefully storing it away.

Summoned to the manor, a vampire elder applying fertilizer to the grapevines hurried over, "Your Majesty, what do you require?"

Ling Chunann's shielding didn't last long before he boldly revealed his whereabouts. As expected, the man didn't follow; instead, the enchantingly handsome vampire elder did, though Ling Chunann acted as if he hadn't noticed, given the elder's invisible approach.

Shengyuan University, one of the top universities located in Jiangcheng, was where both Su Ziqi and Shu Yiheng were freshmen. Due to Ling Chunann's two-month leave, this was his first appearance at the university, by which time Su Ziqi had already become one of the campus beauties.

After reporting his return to the faculty, Ling Chunann, with his backpack, headed to class.

In a class of thirty students, lectures were usually conducted with four sections of the same major due to it being the freshman year, so there were fewer students skipping classes. At this moment, the lecture hall was bustling with noise during the break.

Ling Chunann entered the classroom as per his schedule.

Some people are born to shine. The moment he walked into the classroom, the previously noisy room fell silent instantly.

Ling Chunann's appearance was already exceptional, and after becoming a vampire, especially inheriting Yuan Congshu's Blood Emperor core, he exuded a unique aura. Despite his efforts to suppress it, his distinct presence was unmistakable, hence the shock among the students.

Two seconds later, a female voice broke the silence, "Excuse me, are you looking for someone?"

"Hello, I'm Shu Yiheng from the finance department. I just returned from a leave I took right after enrollment two months ago," Ling Chunann responded with a smile.

"What? He's the mysterious person who hasn't shown up for two months?"

"He's so handsome. Our class already lacks girls, and now we've got a really handsome guy. It's so unfair; looks like I'll be single for the next four years."

"I was wondering who was so bold to take a leave as soon as school started. But seeing how good-looking he is, I forgive him. I've decided to switch my male god starting today. Yang Mingxuan has dropped a rank in my heart, replaced by Shu Yiheng. I wonder if I can get his contact information?"

"Give it a rest, Zhang Cuiflower. With your looks, you might just faint the handsome guy."

Laughter erupted among the students.

Listening to the discussion, Ling Chunann put down his backpack, sighing, "College life is wonderful."

"Host, the girl just mentioned Yang Mingxuan seems to be one of the male leads. And... haven't we done a school mission before?"

"This is different. The first mission world you said was a campus turned out to be a post-apocalyptic world. Later, I did get to study, but I never went to college," Ling Chunann seriously discussed with 098. "So, this is technically my first time attending college on my own terms. Hopefully, I can graduate." Despite having various academic qualifications from self-study and examinations in his world, he had never experienced campus life.

098, after some thought, silently agreed with Ling Chunann's perspective. However, regarding graduation, it couldn't be sure, as the original story progressed three years later when the female lead was taken out of the country by several vampire princes to live happily ever after in a castle.

As the students were about to approach Ling Chunann, the bell rang. He chose a seat in the first row, and everyone reluctantly returned to their places,

 their gazes still fixed on the back of his head.

"Handsome guys are just different; even the back of their heads looks better than others," said Zhang Cuiflower, a chubby girl with a square face and freckles, in a smitten tone, almost dripping with sweetness.

Ling Chunann turned to look at Zhang Cuiflower, giving her a smile.

"Ah!" Zhang Cuiflower screamed, covering her nose and blushing, even her freckles seemed to sparkle.

"Zhang Cuiflower!" the mustachioed lecturer yelled from the podium, "Stand up and answer this question!"

After class, being near the door, Ling Chunann quickly exited the classroom, escaping the hungry gazes of his classmates.

"Host, where are you heading now?" 098 inquired.

"Since school just started two months ago, and tomorrow is the weekend, today the male lead will ask the female lead to go watch a movie, and then bite her on the way back," Ling Chunann said leisurely, his backpack slung over his shoulder.

"So, are you planning to stop the female lead from accepting the invitation?" 098 excitedly asked, "That way, the female lead might not be charmed by Yang Mingxuan. Host, you're so smart."

Ling Chunann neither confirmed nor denied 098's statement.

Su Ziqi was stopped by Yang Mingxuan outside the library.

Since entering university, Su Ziqi felt grateful towards the senior who had always taken good care of her. So, when he invited her to go see a movie together the next day, she pondered briefly before agreeing.

Watching the second male lead leave with a smile, 098 was puzzled. "Host, didn't you intend to prevent the female lead from accepting the invitation?"

Standing at the library entrance, Ling Chunann countered, "When did I say I was going to stop her from agreeing?"

"..." Alright, 098 conceded, admitting it had been making assumptions.

Just when 098 thought its host wouldn't take any further action, Ling Chunann suddenly quickened his pace to catch up with Su Ziqi. "Qiqi."

"Yiheng!" Su Ziqi turned around joyfully and threw herself into Ling Chunann's arms. "You're back!"

"Yes, I'm back," Ling Chunann gently stroked her hair.

Su Ziqi's shoulders trembled slightly, her voice becoming somewhat choked up. "Where have you been these two months? You said you'd only be gone for a month. Why didn't you contact me? Do you know how worried I was?"

"Sorry, things happened suddenly, and I didn't have a chance to contact you," Ling Chunann hugged Su Ziqi back. "By the way, that boy just now, is he your boyfriend?"

"Not at all," Su Ziqi immediately forgot her sorrow, blushing as she denied, then explained, "We're just classmates. We've been closer because he helped me a lot when the school started."

"Haha, okay, I believe you," Ling Chunann laughed. "I need to go home tomorrow to sort some things out. Do you want to come with me?"

"Yes, yes!" Su Ziqi happily agreed, then suddenly remembered something and frowned, "But I just agreed to go out with him tomorrow. Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

"No problem. Give me his contact information, and I'll talk to him for you," Ling Chunann offered warmly.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you," Su Ziqi took out her phone and gave Ling Chunann the number.

Watching the innocent little rabbit fall into the trap joyously, 098 gave up guessing its host's seemingly foolish actions.

After a brief conversation with Su Ziqi and arranging to meet the next morning, they parted ways. Before leaving, Su Ziqi reminded Ling Chunann to apologize to Yang Mingxuan for her.

After bidding Su Ziqi goodbye, Ling Chunann walked towards the school exit. Passing through a secluded garden, he suddenly turned back, catching the panicked eyes of a stalker, "Zhang Cuiflower, right?"

"Hello, Shu, Shu student," Zhang Cuiflower, caught in her tracks, blushed and fumbled with her clothes, "Sorry, I didn't mean to stalk you. I just saw you at the library entrance and wanted to ask for your contact information."

"Sure."

"Of course, if you don't want to give it to me, it's okay. After all, we've just met. Maybe later..." Suddenly, Zhang Cuiflower realized what Ling Chunann had just agreed to, her mouth agape in shock, "What?! You agreed?!"

Ling Chunann briskly pulled out a notebook from his bag, wrote down a set of digits, tore the page, and handed it to Zhang Cuiflower, "This is my phone number."

"Thank you, thank you!" The girl, holding the slip of paper like a precious treasure map, carefully didn't dare to grip it too tightly.

"I need you to do me a favor," Ling Chunann added.

"Please, tell me," Zhang Cuiflower was overjoyed.

Ling Chunann gave Zhang Cuiflower some instructions, which she gladly accepted.

Watching her nearly bounce away, 098 hesitantly asked, "Host, you're having her go on a date with the male lead. Is that wise? He's a vampire prince. Could she be in danger?"

"She won't be. I've placed a mark on her. The male lead wouldn't dare touch her," Ling Chunann answered, then clapped his hands, "Yuan Jiu, come out."

The vampire elder hiding in the shadows appeared immediately, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

"Follow that girl tomorrow and give that vampire a good beating while you're at it," Ling Chunann instructed.

Yuan Jiu hesitated, "But, I..."

"That will be all," Ling Chunann dismissed him.

"Yes, Your Highness." The vampire elder left with a worried expression, wondering how he had displeased His Highness. He decided he needed to discuss his salary with Yuan Congshu later.

"Host, Yuan Jiu might not be able to beat the male lead," 098 realized.

"There's a ban on killing among our kind now

, so there won't be any danger to life. Don't worry," Ling Chunann reassured.

098 fell silent.

Yuan Jiu quickly returned to the manor, reporting Ling Chunann's actions for the day to Yuan Congshu, including the task he had been assigned. Hoping for some understanding from his Blood Emperor for the hardship of his position, Yuan Congshu instead praised his beloved's intelligence, instructing Yuan Jiu to ensure he gave the prince a good thrashing the next day.

"By the way,"

As Yuan Jiu prepared himself mentally for the beating he might receive from the prince, he paused at the sound of Yuan Congshu's voice, hoping the Emperor finally recognized his hard work. "Do you have any further instructions?"

"Make sure to retrieve that piece of paper I gave to the female student tomorrow."
