220. School Health Check
“Good morning~ Ning Chu~”
Just as Ning Chu stepped into the classroom almost on the dot, she heard an overly energetic greeting.
She looked up to see a big dog leap into her arms, affectionately rubbing its face against hers.
“……”
Is this how dogs say hi?
Ning Chu was already used to this, so she pushed Yan Xinya’s face away with a bit of exasperation, squishing it slightly: “Stop it, everyone is watching.”
She was embarrassed.
Almost all her classmates were there, sitting at their tiered desks, staring up at the two of them.
Fortunately, the teacher hadn’t arrived yet.
With Yan Xinya’s arm around her, Ning Chu and Wen Yang sat down in the front row, giving a nod to Lily sitting nearby as a greeting.
On the other side of the same row, Zhang Shaoqing excitedly leaned over, tapping the desk, calling out to Ning Chu: “Wen Yang stayed out all night last night! He spent the night with his girlfriend!”
“He found a girlfriend behind your back over the weekend! Her name is Wen Wen!”
Ning Chu held back her urge to comment and just nodded.
This guy was acting like a brother in front of Wen Yang yesterday, and now he was just being a clown. God knows what was going through his mind.
“Hey, why does your hairstyle look so much like Wen Wen’s?”
She paused, her hand going to her freshly trimmed hair from the salon.
Not much had been cut off; her mother wanted her to keep her hair long and beautiful, which was whatever for her. In fact, she thought it was a bit too long now.
But Zhang Shaoqing had caught that little detail…
“Is it?” Ning Chu lowered her head, replying unflinchingly.
No worries, due to last night’s outfit, her mother had secured her hairstyle with a few clips before she left, and now it was just messily hanging down.
Perhaps Zhang Shaoqing noticed the difference and didn’t pry further, instead asking: “Aren’t you staying in Yan Xinya’s dorm last night? Why didn’t you come to class with them?”
“Ning Chu was snoozing in this morning~” Yan Xinya cheerfully explained.
“Is that so?”
Zhang Shaoqing pondered for a moment, realizing that although Ning Chu did look a lot like that Wen Wen girl, to say they were the same and that Ning Chu was dating Wen Yang felt unlikely.
“What’s your problem?” Wen Yang mumbled, spotting the teacher arriving, immediately switching to listen-mode, tuning out the outside world.
But while Ning Chu brushed Zhang Shaoqing off, Yan Xinya leaned over with a gleeful look.
“So you two are living together already~ No wonder you’re such a succubus~”
“Living together?” Ning Chu shook her head without hesitation, “He just helped me do some cleaning.”
“What about last night…”
She of course wouldn’t admit she spent the night with Wen Yang: “He slept on the sofa.”
“I don’t believe you!”
Ning Chu yawned and leaned against the desk, resting her chin on her arm while watching the teacher calling roll.
She had stayed up too late last night, leaving her feeling groggy this morning. Fortunately, Wen Yang’s embrace was quite comfy… back when she used to sleep with her older brother, she loved using his arm as a pillow. It was fine when she was young, but as they grew up, she got teased about it more.
Mostly, the reason she couldn’t fall asleep was that Wen Yang had tugged on her tail just before she drifted off, which kept her awake for quite a while.
Wolf Girl snuck up again: “Did you end up doing something you shouldn’t have last night~?”
“Don’t be such a pervert…”
“Hey~ I’m just worried about you, afraid you’re giving it up too easily!” Yan Xinya murmured, “If you give it away too easily, men won’t treasure you.”
“……”
Ha~ Most women probably don’t understand men better than she does.
In her heart, Ning Chu snorted in disdain, especially knowing how timid and shy Wen Yang was. She totally had him figured out.
After all, back when she was dating, she spent a night hugging her girlfriend and nothing else… she saw a bit of her younger self in Wen Yang, and thinking back, she just wanted to smack her thighs in regret.
The one chance she had to do something! Just went to waste!
And now she was the girl! She hadn’t even had the pleasure of being a guy!
“Hey, how about we check out your rental apartment at noon?” Yan Xinya asked.
“Sure, I actually have a lot of stuff to move over.”
Lily peeked over towards Ning Chu, her cool face mixed with a heavy dose of gossiping curiosity, making her look particularly cute.
Seeing Ning Chu notice her, she quickly grabbed her phone and pointed at it.
Ning Chu’s heart skipped a beat; this succubus had a tendency to steer conversations into the inappropriate zone, and she never hit the brakes.
But she still lowered her head to check her phone.
This time, Lily’s message came to her main account, which was linked to Wen Yang’s.
Ning Chu casually glanced at Wen Yang, afraid he was eavesdropping on her chat with Lily… having that link for so long, she was effectively restricted and had never discovered any flirty talks Wen Yang might have had with other girls online.
“Be careful! Check out this kind of condom! It’s ribbed! You should review it!”
Of course, it was another wild conversation.
And obviously, she was sending it to her main account just for Wen Yang to see, wasn’t she?
“Why don’t you test it out yourself!”
Ning Chu rolled her eyes at Lily, who wore her ice queen mask, expressionless while looking at her book, totally unaware of how spicy her messages actually were.
Then she looked back down at her phone; Lily sent another link.
“How about this wolf fang-themed condom? Looks like it would be quite exhilarating!”
“……”
Wen Yang was already the main character, with weapons normal girls couldn’t handle, and she was daring him to use technology as well?
Ning Chu didn’t reply any further; her face flushed slightly, feeling embarrassed as she buried her head in her arms.
Even though she knew this succubus had no limits online, it was still hard to handle.
“By the way, Ning Chu.”
Wen Yang had been attentively listening to the lecture when a thought suddenly struck, and he turned to Ning Chu.
“Yeah?”
“The instructor just notified us that the school is organizing a health check this week.”
Another health check?
As soon as Ning Chu heard that term, her heart sank. She had just gone to the hospital with her family for a health check a couple of days ago, and she was nearly in tears during the bl**d draw.
Not because it was painful; mainly because she fainted at the sight of a needle, getting anxious just looking at it.
Besides, doesn’t the school health check involve physical exams too? Lying there in front of everyone while a doctor pokes your belly and chest…
If she wore a bra, it would be too obvious; not wearing one would definitely attract attention.
“Ugh, my head hurts…” Ning Chu muttered, “I just had a health check a couple days ago, and I’m perfectly healthy.”
“Health check?”
Ning Chu usually whispered private topics, but this time, Zhang Shaoqing, who was not too far away, heard her loud and clear.
“Does that mean we can skip class? Nice!”
She ignored Zhang Shaoqing, turning to Yan Xinya for advice, that master strategist.
After a brief thought, Wolf Girl leaned over and whispered, “Just do the health check with me~ You’re a girl anyway.”
“The doctors are not stupid…”
“Just don’t fill out the gender section in the forms~ Come on!”
Ning Chu grimaced: “But what if the classmates find out…”
“Don’t worry~ Let’s see how the school organizes the health check first, and we’ll go with the flow!”
