Chapter 114: Awkward
Ning Chu never really cared much for TV dramas; she only watched the occasional hit series with stellar online reviews.
But this idol drama clearly wasn’t on her list of choices.
She couldn’t understand why Yan Xinya was so happy watching it…
Her attention was quickly diverted by something else.
“Xinya,” Ning Chu curiously looked at Yan Xinya’s head, “Can I touch it?”
“Are you a pervert?”
“I mean your ears!”
This was clearly a world where people with animal traits roamed freely! But as the author, she had never touched one!
“Pervert!” Yan Xinya hesitated, turned to look at her, and shook her head vigorously, “No way!”
“Why…”
Just as she started to ask, Ning Chu suddenly realized.
Because it was a small royal text, in her setting, the ears and tails of beast girls were extremely sensitive… except for succubuses; in the settings, they could turn even pain into pleasure and were basically filled with G spots, not to mention their irregular heat periods.
When the protagonist flirted with the mute succubus Lily, it just so happened to be during her heat period, resulting in a successful advance.
Although she still wanted to test the feel, Ning Chu was afraid of offending Yan Xinya and put her eager hands down.
But her curiosity didn’t end there: “Xinya, do you have four ears?”
“Huh?” Yan Xinya looked puzzled for a moment before flipping her long hair to the side, “Two pairs.”
Underneath the hair were a pair of small, normal human ears; it seemed that most settings for beast girls were like this.
“Oh~”
“This one can be touched.”
Who has the time to touch human ears? It’s not like she didn’t have any; furry beast ears were way more interesting!
Satisfied with her curiosity, Ning Chu resumed watching the drama.
But having a habit of napping, she yawned repeatedly, and with absolutely no interest in the show, the dialogues became the perfect sleep aid. In less than ten minutes, her brain had sunk into a haze.
“So sweet~ Ning Chu, did you see that part just now!”
“Ning Chu?”
Yan Xinya turned her head, only to see Ning Chu asleep with her hands cradling her chin.
Those excited ears drooped down, flopping against her hair, while her wagging tail fell to the ground.
Hei Dou noticed the tail dangling on the floor and quickly pounced on it, treating it like a cat toy.
She swished her tail trying to bat away the kitten, casting a dissatisfied glance at Ning Chu: “I think it’s pretty good… just say you don’t like it…”
Bored, she yawned, resting her chin on the table, gazing at Ning Chu like a little dog with nothing to do after her owner fell asleep.
From time to time, she would twitch her nose, sniffing the aroma Ning Chu emitted.
Amidst the hormonal scent, there was a faint hint of milk; Ning Chu must still be in a developmental phase.
She was already in her first year of college; she should be at least seventeen or eighteen, right? This development was way too late.
“Hiss!”
Suddenly, her tail was bitten by Hei Dou, causing Yan Xinya’s body to tense up, her eyes watery.
“This cat is so annoying!”
She bared her teeth and turned around, her slightly green eyes fixed on the little black cat, a low growl rumbling from her throat.
Hei Dou got scared and bolted away.
Yan Xinya hugged her tail in front of her, glancing at the wolf fur scattered on the ground, pitifully muttering, “It even pulled out a few tufts of fur~”
Cuddling her tail, she laid down on the table, unknowingly drifting off to sleep again.
…
“Knock knock knock.”
The gentle knocking startled Yan Xinya awake. She perked up her ears, looking towards the door: “Who is it?”
“It’s me, Wen Yang, why is the door locked?”
“What time is it? You’re back already?” Yan Xinya instinctively looked out the window, “Oh my! It’s dark outside!”
Her sudden exclamation woke Ning Chu up too: “What’s wrong?”
“Wen Yang is back, I’m going to open the door.”
Ning Chu was still a bit dazed, rubbing her sore eyes before glancing at the time, realizing it was almost seven in the evening.
No wonder she felt increasingly tired…
Having napped too long at the table, her whole body felt sore; she yawned, looking up at Wen Yang who had already stepped inside.
“Why are you here too?”
“Just keeping her company~ She’s scared to be alone.”
Wen Yang looked at Ning Chu quizzically as she sat there yawning without a care in the world; she certainly didn’t look scared.
“If I had known earlier, I could’ve brought you food.”
“No worries, now that you’re back, I’ll take off!” Yan Xinya perked up, glancing between Ning Chu and Wen Yang, grinning widely, “It’s your couple’s night now~ I won’t disturb you~”
“……”
Ning Chu shot a discontent glare at the wolf girl, but she dashed out quickly.
“Watch it! You’re so loud!”
“Got it!”
Wen Yang walked over to the desk, placing the takeout spaghetti down, and he looked at Ning Chu’s sleepy state, feeling a bit guilty: “Your dinner.”
“Mm.” Ning Chu stretched, stood up, and grabbed a towel to wash her face on the balcony.
After freshening up, she suddenly realized that she had managed to get through the afternoon without the protagonist’s halo.
Absolutely no perverted disturbances!
Was it thanks to Yan Xinya? Or perhaps because of Wen Yang’s sleep shirt?
“How was tutoring today?”
Back in the dormitory, Ning Chu casually asked Wen Yang.
Mentioning tutoring made Wen Yang feel guiltier: “It was okay… just that middle school kid was hard to teach; he wouldn’t listen at all.”
After spending two months together, Ning Chu knew Wen Yang very well; she easily noticed the dodgy gleam in his eyes.
What was he feeling guilty about?!
Did he crush on some girl?!
Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly stepped closer to Wen Yang, looking up at him filled with suspicion: “Why do you look so guilty?”
They were practically face to face; Wen Yang instinctively wanted to back away, but Ning Chu interpreted it as a sign of guilt. She followed his lead, inching closer: “Did you crush on some girl?!”
“N-no…”
Wen Yang kept retreating, but in just a few steps, he hit the wall, having nowhere else to back down.
He looked down at her tense little face, her suspicious gaze, her soft body just a few centimeters away. He could almost feel the warmth of Ning Chu’s breath.
“Be honest!”
“There’s… there’s this senior girl who insisted I tutor her.” Wen Yang looked up, focusing on the ceiling, “And she just happens to live in the same residential community. When I went over, she clung to me, and when I left, we even had a bit of body contact.”
Ning Chu’s brows furrowed even deeper: “And then?”
She could basically confirm that the senior girl was a story character! Normal girls wouldn’t be that bold to cling to a guy they had just met.
“I didn’t agree! I swear!” Wen Yang replied in a flustered manner.
“What’s there to feel guilty about if you didn’t agree…”
Was it not because he had almost said yes a couple of times?
Wen Yang could only awkwardly smile.
Ning Chu stared intently into Wen Yang’s eyes for a moment before confirming that he truly wasn’t lying to her.
Just as she was about to turn around to eat dinner, her body suddenly stiffened.
Something hot quietly rose and pressed against her belly…
Wen Yang’s smile became even more awkward.
