Because of My Stupidity, I Became a Timid Vampire

Chapter 164 : People of the Bei Yao Family

In the evening, the sun had already set, and the thin red afterglow dyed half the sky red. Bei Yaoluo, who had disappeared for the entire afternoon, returned to the hotel driving a large seven-seat commercial SUV, notifying the girls to come downstairs and prepare to set out to solve the dinner problem.

Without the sun's harassment, Xifeng's style instantly became lively. She looked up and down at this unfamiliar SUV, confirming she had never seen it before, so she asked: "Sister Luo, where did this car come from?"

This was a car logo Xifeng didn't recognize. In her eyes, any car logo she didn't recognize had a high probability of being a luxury car, which meant this car's rental fee probably wouldn't be cheap—though as Bei Yaoyue's niece, money definitely wasn't something Bei Yaoluo needed to worry about.

"Rented it, of course." Bei Yaoluo pressed the trunk release button from inside the car and got out opening the door. "Not having a car is too inconvenient. I rented this car for three days, enough for us to use during this time."

Although Full Moon City, as one of the three major municipalities directly under the central government of the Chong Nation, could be said to be very developed with very convenient subway transportation, taking the subway became very inconvenient when carrying large amounts of luggage. It was still more comfortable to drive yourself—go wherever you want, free and easy.

Bei Yaoluo walked to the back of the car, lifted the trunk door, and showed the girls the results of her busy afternoon: "We're having barbecue tonight."

"...Barbecue?" Slightly stunned, Bei Yaoyue looked into the trunk—barbecue grill, charcoal, steel skewers, and various ingredients and seasonings filling the entire trunk. The items were quite complete; buying a car full of things must have taken quite a bit of time.

"I've already booked the beach. Tonight we're going to the seaside for barbecue." Bei Yaoluo said enthusiastically.

"But... won't eating barbecue in this hot summer be too hot?" He Pingge said somewhat hesitantly, but being just someone tagging along with the group, she didn't feel comfortable saying anything too harsh and could only offer simple suggestions.

"I second that." Xifeng immediately chimed in. Due to her instinctive fear of sunlight, she had become quite averse to high temperatures and brightness. Eating barbecue in this thirty-plus degree weather... wasn't that just looking for trouble?

"Everything's already bought—what a waste it would be not to eat it." Bei Yaoluo's eager appearance clearly showed she wasn't planning to give up easily. "Majority rules. Barbecue tonight—who agrees, who objects?"

"I agree." Su Weiai looked around at everyone and was the first to give a positive answer. After a brief silence, Bei Yaoyue also raised her hand.

Getting hit with two opposing votes right off the bat, Xifeng's momentum for objecting was immediately suppressed. She opened her mouth and said with insufficient confidence: "Can I object?"

"Objection invalid." Chuckling, Bei Yaoluo exercised her veto power. She rented the car, the steering wheel was in her hands—wasn't it up to her to decide?

After speaking, Bei Yaoluo waved her little hand: "Girls, get in the car, let's go!"

Sighing helplessly, Xifeng muttered resentfully like a bitter woman confined to her chambers: "Why are all the people in the Bei Yao family so domineering?"

This was overheard by Bei Yaoyue, who happened to be passing by. She couldn't help but laugh and reached out to poke Xifeng's slender waist with her index finger: "What do you mean by that? Aren't you also a person of the Bei Yao family now?"

"Don't poke my waist!" Xifeng's face slightly pink as she dodged Bei Yaoyue's mischievous finger. "I'm ticklish..."

She didn't know when it started, but Bei Yaoyue had learned this move of poking Xifeng's waist, and she was getting more and more skilled at it. The extremely sensitive Xifeng was most afraid of this behavior, and every time she faced Bei Yaoyue's harassment, she could only flee in panic.

Xifeng's appearance, as if a spider had crawled on her body, made Bei Yaoyue's smile even broader. She withdrew her finger and said: "Do you remember that our mom is Japanese?"

Patting her pink-tinged cheeks, Xifeng quietly responded: "Mm... what about it?"

"According to Japanese tradition, after a wife marries her husband, she takes her husband's surname." Strange ripples appeared in her clear blue eyes as Bei Yaoyue gently embraced Xifeng's soft waist. "Look, you're taking my surname now. Doesn't that mean..."

Bei Yaoyue didn't continue but turned her head to face Xifeng almost cheek to cheek, so close they could feel each other's fine hairs brushing against their faces.

Her heart suddenly convulsed. Xifeng's cheeks became even redder as she shyly whispered: "Too... too close..."

With their noses touching, Bei Yaoyue blinked, and their eyelashes seemed to be fighting as they touched.

Her heartbeat accelerating, Xifeng said breathlessly: "Bei Yaoyue... they're in the car... we'll be seen..."

Xifeng didn't want He Pingge and Su Weiai to know about their relationship yet. It was still too early.

"This is a blind spot. Only Sister Luo can see."

Bei Yaoyue didn't retreat at all, continuing to maintain this extremely intimate position. Since they were standing directly behind the car, only Bei Yaoluo could catch glimpses through the rearview mirror.

At this moment, that mischievous sister was secretly glancing at their interaction from the driver's seat, her eyes brimming with thick amusement.

"Xifeng." Bei Yaoyue breathed out and put on a tender, water-like doting smile, her azure eyes as deep as the sky rippling with gorgeous waves. "Call me husband."

Call me husband!?

Absolutely impossible! This was a matter of dignity!

Shouting this in her heart, Xifeng's voice was extremely low as she evasively whispered: "Wife..."

Bei Yaoyue's brow instantly furrowed. Xifeng's answer made her very dissatisfied. (—DATA DELETED—)

"Eek!?"

Like a little cat suddenly having its tail grabbed forcefully, Xifeng's body suddenly jumped upward, then she lowered her head and buried her burning cheeks in Bei Yaoyue's embrace.

"Bei Yaoyue... you... bad guy..."

The shame in Xifeng's voice was almost condensed into water. She pounded Bei Yaoyue's chest with her powerless little pink fists, her voice trembling: "(—DATA DELETED—)"

Tilting her head, Bei Yaoyue said with a light smile: "Call me husband."

"......"

Her fists white from clenching them tightly, the frantic Xifeng was already faintly feeling anger. This bastard Bei Yaoyue was truly rotten to the core! Rotten to the bone!

"Hey, what are you two dawdling about? Get in the car quickly."

Bei Yaoluo's voice came through, accompanied by a loud honk that startled the guilty Xifeng.

"(—DATA DELETED—)" Bei Yaoyue remained unfazed, perfectly demonstrating what it meant to fear neither heaven nor earth.

"You..."

Biting her lip tightly, Bei Yaoyue's behavior made Xifeng's teeth itch with hatred, but... aside from compromising, she seemed to have no other choice.

"...Hus...band..."
