Having the vampire that is established as the race of ikkemen that went through the plot device of NTR-bait is something that makes sense, here. He oozes the playboy aura in the preceding chapter, so the bait device afterwards is not something "completely different".
Having the plot device being an NTR-bait is also a clever choice to reveal the character of Yutaka, which was shown to actually willing to take action despite having a reserved personality. This is an interesting development. It also shows us the gap between humans and the genjins; it goes beyond cultural difference, I think. Werewolfs and vampires don't have the same culture, after all. The blood-sucking vignette shows the gap between humans' and genjins' conduct and how they see the world (I can't believe I explained this part like ProZD tried to justify breast-feeding anime).
The only drawback I see from that vignette is that we don't get clear confirmation on how Tsumiki and Sengan, the genjins, actually see it from their perspective. It is just brushed off, as they look cluelessly at Yutaka doing kow-tows "randomly" in front of them. Especially so with Tsumiki which seemingly was about to get under the effect of Sengan's vampiric allure perfume thing, which is never explored afterwards. That is sucks. We only see Sengan poking Yutaka "you jelly?", but we never get to see his true intention as well: food or fuckboy?
