My vampire princess wants to repay a debt of gratitude.

Lin Mo hadn't finished speaking when Ye Zimo interrupted him:

“I promised your ancestor that I would transform his descendants, so there is only this one way to repay the debt. Even if you want me to give Xiaoju to you, I cannot agree.”

"Hey, hey, you've misunderstood, that's not what I meant."

Lin Mo felt a little embarrassed. Could it be that he had been too focused on the super-strong little girl and that Ye Zimo had misunderstood him?

“Don’t be shy. Many people are powerless against Xiaoju. There was an elderly couple who wanted to adopt her, but I refused.”

Ye Zimo said dismissively.

Even the seemingly aloof vampire likes Kiku because she loves manga just like him, and Kiku always prepares dinner for him according to manga recipes, which is incredibly thoughtful.

I will not give you a maid like that!

Lin Mo wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I really didn't mean that."

Besides, do I look like a wealthy elderly person who can adopt a little girl? I can't even afford to raise one myself.

Lin Mo sighed. He originally wanted to support himself and his sister with his only skill, comics. However, he had been serializing his work for free until now, and only then did an editor approach him to sign a contract. So, in addition to going to school, he also worked part-time at a convenience store outside of school to save money for college.

Although his aunt, who had some money, had already prepared a college fund for Lin Mo, he was prepared to be independent when he turned 18 and no longer accept his aunt's help.

Lin Mo always felt that her aunt's lack of children was due to the burden of her and her sister, and wanted to get her aunt away from her siblings' life as soon as possible so she could live her own life.

Because of his part-time job and drawing comics, Lin Mo's grades have never been very good, but he doesn't plan to skip university, so Ye Zimo wants to tutor him, and Lin Mo isn't really against it.

林默每天的兼职是8点到12点4个小时，下课放学的时间是5点，刚好可以抽出3小时补习。

Lin Mo had originally planned to just buy a pack of instant noodles for dinner, but he didn't expect the vampire young lady's dinner to be so lavish.

Wait, why are you eating human food?

Have vampires now evolved to the point of being indistinguishable from humans?

Ye Zimo noticed Lin Mo's surprise. She casually opened a drink, smelled the food on the table, and began to drink.

The drink was blood red, and Lin Mo thought it was actually a blood bag disguised as a beverage.

"Stop looking, let's eat together."

Ye Zimo said generously.

Ye Zimo picked up a salmon sushi, licked it once, and put it down. She did the same with the other dishes and fruits.

So...you still can't eat?

Lin Mo asked tentatively.

Ye Zimo glanced at Lin Mo: "Eating a little bit won't hurt."

Lin Mo nodded, avoiding the sushi she had licked, picked up a rice ball, and started eating.

Lin Mo didn't mind being treated to a meal by the vampire at all, and he thoroughly enjoyed it.

"Although I prefer Chinese food to Japanese food."

After finishing his meal, Lin Mo commented as follows.

He stood up, preparing to clear the table.

Xiaoju suddenly rushed out of the bushes, with a few leaves still stuck to her head.

"Don't move! I'll do it."

Xiaoju pushed Lin Mo's hand away, quickly packed up the tablecloth, cleaned it up, and restored the desk to its original state. Her series of actions were as smooth as water, and she disappeared immediately after finishing, without any lingering or hesitation. She came and went like the wind, making Lin Mo think of a certain word.

Ninja Maid!

Chapter 8 Tutoring and Part-time Jobs

It took half an hour to finish this meal.

Ye Zimo officially began tutoring Lin Mo.

The warm sunlight of the setting sun shone through the transparent glass window onto Ye Zimo, making her look like a painting.

Lin Mo swallowed.

She's so beautiful, it's impossible for me to concentrate on my studies!

Ye Zimo didn't look up, and said calmly, "Don't stare at my face, stare at your textbook."

Social mortality value +99.

Lin Mo looked away and started working on the problems.

He originally planned to focus on his studies during his senior year of high school and just aim for any university, but Ye Zimo's appearance brought his plans forward.

Ye Zimo and Lao Wei have completely different teaching styles, yet they are surprisingly easy to understand and remember.

After 2 hours and 10 minutes of tutoring, it's almost 8 o'clock.

Lin Mo packed his schoolbag, preparing to leave.

"It's not time yet."

Ye Zimo glanced at the clock at the front of the classroom.

"I have to go now."

Lin Mo slung his shoulder bag over his shoulder and walked straight to the classroom door. Ye Zimo did not stop him, but instead followed him at a leisurely pace.

Lin Mo was taken aback: "I really have something to do, you don't need to come with me."

"The tutoring session isn't over yet."

Ye Zimo is a meticulous person who always keeps her word. If she says she'll work for 3 hours, she will work for 3 hours, not even a minute less.

"Oh."

Lin Mo responded, already having made up his mind.

The school and the convenience store are two streets apart, and Lin Mo needs to ride his bike there. He just needs to shake off the vampire young lady along the way.

Lin Mo got on his bicycle, didn't invite Ye Zimo to ride with him, and simply pushed off with both legs.

A jet-black Mercedes pulled up, and the driver rolled down the window: "Miss, get in."

Xiaoju was already sitting inside. She pushed open the door and asked, "Miss, are you going home?"

Ye Zimo got into the car, casually picked up a comic book from Xiao Ju's arms, and opened it: "No, follow them."

"Yes."

The white-haired veteran driver nodded, accelerated, and easily caught up with Lin Mo, who was pedaling hard in front of him.

"?"

Lin Mo never imagined that his bicycle would one day face a situation where he was racing against a Mercedes-Benz.

He smiled and turned the steering wheel to the left, entering a small alley.

A Mercedes-Benz can't drive into this alley.

They've shaken them off!

Lin Mo turned around and found that the Mercedes-Benz had indeed stopped and was no longer following him.

"hey-hey."

Lin Mo touched his nose, smiled smugly, and rode his bicycle to the convenience store where he worked.

It took Lin Mo 15 minutes to get to the convenience store, park his bicycle, put on his shoulder bag, and push open the glass door.

"Kobayashi is here?"

The boss was a middle-aged man with a stubble and unkempt appearance. He stretched, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

"I love punctual young people like you. I'm exhausted. I played games all night last night and I can't even straighten my back today. I'm going to take a nap. I'll leave the shop to you."

He patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, then leaned close to Lin Mo's ear and said...

"A pretty female student just walked into the store. Don't say I didn't give you a chance."

The boss pointed to the young woman behind the shelf, gave Lin Mo a knowing look, and then went into the inner room to sleep.

Lin Mo wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Uncle Yue..."

Following the boss's instructions, Lin Mo saw the girl behind the shelf. The girl's long, straight black hair betrayed her identity.

"Vampire?"

Lin Mo sighed; he hadn't managed to shake him off.

That's right, she did her research on herself, so she must know that she works at this convenience store.

Ye Zimo turned around, and through the gap in the shelf, their eyes met.

Lin Mo suddenly heard his heart pounding.

Sure enough, is it fear? My heart is racing!

Ye Zimo saw impatience, displeasure, and disdain in Lin Mo's eyes.

She didn't know that this was a common characteristic of dead fish eyes, rather than Lin Mo doing it on purpose.

"You are special."

Ye Zimo suddenly spoke, which surprised Lin Mo.

So… the vampire wants to repay his debt in a different way—by offering himself in marriage? Pshaw, how could that be?

Lin Mo dismissed the fantasy in her mind and looked at Ye Zimo: "What's so special about it?"

"You dare to stare at me like that? The last person to look at me like that has a grave covered in grass that's already three meters tall."

Ye Zimo said calmly.

Lin Mo felt a chill run down his spine: "Wait, didn't you say you wouldn't hurt people casually?"

"Oh, don't misunderstand, he died of natural causes."

After Ye Zimo finished speaking, Lin Mo's dead fish eyes became even more lifeless.

Lin Mo said speechlessly, "Don't disturb my work."
