Synopsis
Si Yu accepts a teaching position in Gutang Village, discovering that the role involves maintaining harmony between humans and supernatural entities. His neighbor, Qi Lu, is a prickly member of the blood race who trades gothic castles for tractor driving. Together, they navigate the complexities of a rural society where vampires integrate into local life. This novel reads like a cozy, supernatural slice-of-life, heavily utilizing the 'grumpy x sunshine' trope common in modern BL romance. It is perfect for readers who enjoy low-stakes domesticity and quirky world-building, though those seeking dark, high-fantasy vampire lore should skip it. The pacing is steady and relaxed, with the standout quality being the humorous contrast between traditional vampire stereotypes and the mundane reality of village farming.

Editorial Review
This completed BL novel offers a refreshing take on supernatural romance by stripping away the typical Western gothic trappings. The strength of the work lies in its unique atmospheric blend of rural life and paranormal coexistence, providing a charming setting that feels distinct from standard genre fare. With 97 chapters, the story is concise and avoids the bloating often found in webnovels, ensuring the romantic development feels earned. However, the low-conflict nature of the plot is a double-edged sword; while cozy, the narrative lacks a driving tension that might keep more demanding readers engaged. It functions more as a character study than a plot-driven epic. Overall, it is a polished, focused piece of fiction that delivers a satisfying, albeit quiet, emotional arc.
