Chapter 127: Gifts
On Monday afternoon during P.E. class, Ning Chu was surprisingly not pestering Wen Yang.
During free time, she sat side by side with Lily and Yan Xinya on a bench by the edge of the soccer field, each holding a cup of milk tea.
“Ning Chu~ I smell it again~” Wolf Girl rested her chin on Ning Chu’s shoulder, teasing, “Next time, you’d better take a good shower, or what if others find out?”
“……”
“How did you manage at noon?”
“I just endured it…”
Lily chimed in, “Wasn’t that dangerous?”
“Yeah, you should just move out quickly; otherwise, living in the boys’ dorm could turn into a big brawl.”
“……” Ning Chu hung her head, speechless.
Look who’s talking! The real culprit is you!
She had already been wary of Wen Yang’s interactions with Lily, and now Yan Xinya had brought Lily to class! They just had to crowd around Wen Yang!
Well, great! To disrupt the plot, Wen Yang now suspected her of being a succubus.
Lily’s plot could also be shifting towards her.
Maybe she was just overthinking?
Ning Chu leaned back against the bench, gazing at the blue sky, her face filled with despair.
“You poor succubi~” Yan Xinya said, her head down as she used a pet comb to groom her tail, “But you don’t shed, how nice~”
Just a few strokes, and the brush was already thick with fur.
Even in front of friends, Lily maintained her cool demeanor, sitting upright with a book, lightly responding.
“Ning Chu, can I see the patterns on your belly? Lily won’t show me hers.”
“Don’t talk to me…”
“Wen Yang is missing.”
Ning Chu jolted up, standing on tiptoe to scan the playground, her gaze sweeping around, but she couldn’t find Wen Yang at all.
Just a few minutes ago, he was sitting on the lawn playing mobile games with Wang Jie and Zhang Shaoqing!
Where did he disappear to now?
Her heart raced, her eyes continuously scouring the playground, hoping she simply overlooked him.
But with Wen Yang’s nearly six-foot-three height and his standout looks, there was no way she missed him!
“Maybe he went to the restroom?” Yan Xinya tugged at her hand, “Don’t panic, it doesn’t mean he’s off playing with girls.”
It wasn’t that she was worried about Wen Yang being with girls; Ning Chu was more worried about herself.
Whenever Wen Yang wasn’t in sight, her heart would race uncontrollably.
“I’ll go find him.”
“Don’t rush, don’t rush.”
Lily shifted her gaze from her book to Ning Chu: “Call him.”
Ning Chu fumbled to grab her phone, but her eyes were glued to the entrance of the playground, breathing a sigh of relief.
It was Wen Yang, holding a package; he must have gone to pick up a delivery.
This guy is so broke; the moment he earns a little, he can’t resist splurging… I need to lecture him about his spending habits! Always blowing money!
She plopped back down, muttering, “You scared me.”
“And you say you’re not dating Wen Yang~” Yan Xinya teased, leaning closer, “Look at how nervous you were just now.”
“I’m not.”
“You’re just stubborn~” Wolf Girl turned to Lily, mocking, “She had to wear Wen Yang’s clothes in the dorm alone on weekends just to feel at ease~ and says she doesn’t like him.”
Ning Chu blushed and retorted, “Stop talking nonsense! I was just cold!”
Wen Yang approached with the package, looking at the three giggling girls: “What are you chatting about so happily?”
“Telling everyone about Ning Chu just now……”
Ning Chu quickly grabbed Yan Xinya’s wolf ear, and instantly Wolf Girl slumped down: “Ouch! Let go! It hurts!”
“Hmm!” She released it abruptly and looked up, “What’s up?”
“I bought you something.”
“???”
Wen Yang tossed the package onto Ning Chu’s lap from a meter away, turning his head, face slightly flushed: “Take a look, see if you like it.”
“A token of affection!”
Ning Chu pounced on Yan Xinya: “Shut up!”
Meanwhile, Lily, looking troubled, edged away and “thudded” down from the bench.
“Lily! Are you okay?” Yan Xinya hurriedly helped Lily up, then turned back to Ning Chu: “Enough teasing, open it up and see.”
Ning Chu shot her a glare and hesitantly glanced at the package on her thighs, then nervously looked back at Wen Yang.
It wouldn’t really be a token of affection, right? Why else would Wen Yang be sending her something?
Maybe it’s better not to open it and just send it back to him?
Wen Yang felt uneasy under her hesitant gaze, his arms crossing, urging, “Quick, open it. If you don’t like it, I’ll return it.”
“What a clueless guy you are!”
He paused, looking at the frustrated Wolf Girl and expressionless Succubus, then quickly corrected himself: “Well, it’s yours now, keep it no matter if you like it or not.”
“……”
Ning Chu sighed heavily, ripping open the package.
It looked like a set of clothes.
Taking out the clothes and laying them on the bench, she stared at the short blue-and-white top, the deep blue short skirt, and the black thigh-highs beside them, falling into contemplation.
Wen Yang, are you a little out of your mind?
She shot Wen Yang a sideways glance.
Seeing her displeased face, Wen Yang hurriedly explained, “I noticed you don’t have any women’s clothing, so I thought I’d get you a set… Even if you can’t wear it in the dorm, you’ll need something nice to wear on weekends when you go out…”
Looking at her increasingly displeased expression, his voice trailed off: “I thought this set looked pretty; it looks great on others.”
The high school girl in the sailor uniform he met when tutoring on the weekend really caught his eye, especially that outfit; he had been imagining what it would look like on Ning Chu.
Coincidentally, it seemed Ning Chu didn’t have a single piece of women’s clothing.
“I don’t have that kind of kink.” Ning Chu rubbed her nose in annoyance.
“You don’t like wearing skirts?”
Wen Yang sounded surprised.
I don’t wear women’s clothes at all! Especially not short skirts and sailor uniforms!
“Stop sending me stuff in the future; this set looks pretty pricey, and that money from your part-time job is better spent on food,” Ning Chu folded the clothes and handed them back to Wen Yang, “Just return it.”
She had to firmly refuse at this moment! She needed to make Wen Yang’s feelings for her go unrewarded!
Wen Yang was taken aback, a bit disappointed; just as he was reaching out to accept it, he noticed Yan Xinya was wildly making faces at him.
“……”
So he turned and walked away.
“Wait! You need to return it!” Ning Chu shouted, getting up to chase after him, “Come back!”
“A person’s good intentions~ If you don’t like it, just keep it~” Yan Xinya suddenly wrapped her arms around Ning Chu’s shoulders from behind, pinning her back down, her face all smiles, “Just accept it!”
“I live in the boys’ dorm!”
“I’ll keep it safe for you! If you need it, call me, and I’ll deliver it to you right away!”
