Chapter 319: I Am Here to Eat People
The snake demon's beauty was truly rare in the world; even with a serious expression, her entire being still exuded an alluring charm.
At this moment, as the two had just stepped into Stone Forest Town, the snake demon's beauty immediately attracted the attention of many tourists. Particularly, numerous men repeatedly cast glances at her, some even adjusting their pace to follow closely behind her, simply to steal a few more glimpses of her back.
Though they watched, no one approached her yet. After all, the snake demon's stern expression clearly indicated she was in a bad mood, and attempting to strike up a conversation at such a time might very well backfire.
Furthermore, with Yang Haoran accompanying the snake demon, she gave off the impression of already being taken, which deterred anyone from actively making a move.
Some men harbored ill intentions but lacked the courage, especially with their girlfriends right beside them.
Other single men, however, were psyching themselves up, patiently awaiting what they deemed the perfect opportunity to make their move.
However, the streamer at this moment disregarded such subtleties. The snake demon's beauty had truly captivated him. With an excited shout to his fans, he immediately quickened his pace, moving ahead of Yang Haoran and the snake demon. Then, without any consideration for others, he raised his selfie stick high, deliberately pointing it at the snake demon behind him.
The phone captured not only the snake demon but also Yang Haoran.
“Buddies, quick, check out this absolute stunner! Have you ever seen such a top-tier beauty? I don't know if you have, but I sure haven't! ”
He looked agitated, his tone excited. After roaring these words, he turned sideways to glance at the snake demon behind him and then shamelessly winked at her.
This streamer's appearance was even plainer than Yang Haoran's, and he was considerably shorter. Even with heavy makeup, his looks weren't improved much.
Whether his makeup skills were simply lacking, or if makeup itself couldn't salvage him, remained unknown.
Beyond the heavy makeup, his attire was also gaudy and exaggerated, making him particularly conspicuous in the crowd—a guaranteed head-turner.
Despite his lack of good looks, the streamer was incredibly self-assured. When he winked at the snake demon, his smile, his gaze, his entire demeanor seemed to convey one message: “I am handsome. ” It was as if the word “handsome” had completely consumed his face, leaving no room for anything else.
The snake demon, who had initially maintained a stern expression, now flashed a charming smile at the streamer.
The snake demon smiled because she found the streamer amusing. The streamer, however, interpreted it differently, convinced that she had been moved by his dashing good looks.
Her charming smile made the streamer shiver. He excitedly turned the camera to himself, laughing with delight: “Did you see that? Did you see it? She just smiled at me! I think she’s trying to seduce me! ”
The live stream chat exploded as well, with comments flooding in. Most were praising the snake demon's beauty, a smaller portion were spewing sour remarks, and another segment had noticed Yang Haoran.
However, those who noticed Yang Haoran weren't doing so because of any particular charm he possessed, but rather wondering why he had the right to stand beside such a beauty.
The streamer naturally saw the comments in his chat. He chuckled and declared: “Don't worry about the guy next to her. He’s just ordinary, nothing special. Just ignore him! That beauty just smiled at me, so now I’m going to ask her for her contact info! ”
The streamer spoke excitedly, then suddenly halted, turning to face the snake demon. The camera also landed on her.
As for Yang Haoran, the streamer truly lived up to his words—he completely ignored him.
The streamer was already ahead of Yang Haoran and the snake demon, and when he suddenly stopped, the two of them had no choice but to halt as well.
The snake demon gazed charmingly at the streamer, who, in turn, wore a face full of excited smiles.
Yang Haoran's expression, however, remained unchanged, still bearing his usual gentle smile.
“Beautiful, are you alone? ” the streamer asked the snake demon, still live-streaming.
“Alone? Heh heh, then what is he? Not a person? ” the snake demon replied with a laugh, gesturing towards Yang Haoran beside her.
Upon hearing this, Yang Haoran's smile stiffened slightly. No matter how he heard it, the snake demon’s words seemed to be insulting him.
“Oh, would you look at my eyes,” the streamer chuckled. “He's your father, isn't he? Your old man's so unremarkable, I didn't even notice him. ”
The streamer said with a laugh. He merely gave Yang Haoran a fleeting glance before his gaze snapped back to the snake demon. Fearing he might miss even a moment of her presence, he wouldn't possibly waste time on Yang Haoran.
The snake demon covered her mouth, chuckling. The streamer's words had truly amused her. She turned her head to look at Yang Haoran, observing his mouth twitching a few times, his smile becoming distinctly unnatural.
Seeing Yang Haoran's expression, the snake demon laughed even harder. The vexation in her heart instantly dissipated with her merriment.
The streamer was utterly enchanted by the snake demon's smile. Far from realizing he was merely a joke in her eyes, he instead believed his humor had won her favor, which only swelled his confidence.
“Beautiful, your smile is truly lovely. Are you here for tourism? ” the streamer asked, still grinning.
The snake demon was laughing heartily, but upon hearing the streamer's question, her smile softened slightly. She looked at the streamer and said with a grin, “I’m not here for tourism. I’m here to eat people. ”
As her words fell, the snake demon playfully flicked her forked tongue at the streamer.
When the forked tongue darted from the snake demon’s cherry-red lips, the streamer was initially stunned, then burst into hearty laughter.
“Haha, beautiful, your forked tongue is so amusing! It looks incredibly real. I didn't realize you were so mischievous! But I happen to love girls who are a little playful; otherwise, life would be too boring. ”
The streamer completely mistook the snake demon's forked tongue for a toy. It was understandable why he'd think that; scenic areas were brimming with all sorts of peculiar trinkets, and it was perfectly normal for someone with a childlike heart to buy them for fun, nothing to be surprised about.
The snake demon merely smiled, saying nothing. The streamer, meanwhile, turned his phone camera to himself and chuckled: “See that, brothers? This beauty is really entertaining! She even tried to scare me with a toy. Good thing I’m brave, or I might have actually jumped! Don't you just love a pretty girl who’s a little mischievous? ”
Looking at the death-defying streamer before him, Yang Haoran couldn't help but shake his head. He was reminded of the streamer the snake demon had toyed to death on the mountain previously. Was that streamer just like this one?
Such irrelevant questions were, of course, not worth Yang Haoran's time. Finding it dull, he smilingly signaled to the snake demon, ready to depart.
“Let’s go. Don’t waste any more time. ”
As his words fell, Yang Haoran stepped forward, ready to leave, but the snake demon seized his hand.
“Don’t be in such a hurry! Let’s play a bit more, it’s quite fun. Besides, it’s not the right time to go yet,” the snake demon actually whined, clinging to Yang Haoran.
Yang Haoran had never seen the snake demon act so coy. This made his expression turn peculiar, a mix of surprise and amusement.
“What’s so fun about this? ” Yang Haoran asked with a faint smile.
“I think it’s quite fun, though. Are you. . . could you be jealous? ” the snake demon asked, winking and grinning at Yang Haoran.
“Jealous? Heh heh, not really. ” Yang Haoran replied with a chuckle.
Upon hearing this, the snake demon’s smile didn’t diminish; instead, it grew even wider.
“Liars have to swallow a thousand needles, you know! So, you’d better think carefully before you answer me. ”
Yang Haoran looked speechless. He then gently removed the snake demon’s hand from his, chuckling as he said, “What on earth are you thinking? ”
The snake demon wasn’t angry or embarrassed; her face was all smiles, clearly delighted.
Just then, the streamer overheard their conversation, and a sudden sense of urgency flared within him. He quickly mumbled a few words to the screen, then his gaze, along with his camera, fixed on the snake demon once more.
“Beautiful, you just said you’re here to eat people. Well, coincidentally, I’m also here to eat people. I think you're quite delicious, exactly my type. I wonder what you think of me? If you find me to your taste, then heh heh, we’ll both have plenty to eat tonight! It doesn't matter if I get my fill, but I promise I won't let you go hungry. If you’re in a hurry, we don’t even have to wait until tonight. There are plenty of hotels here; I can be at your service anytime. ”
