Trapped in Paradise – Chapter 220

236. Unexpected Situation

“What are you even looking for in a girlfriend? You don’t care about your bro anymore, huh? Can you just leave your buddy alone to stare at the ceiling in the dorm?”

“What’s more important, women or brothers?!”

It was evening, and as soon as Zhang Shaoqing walked out of the teaching building, he locked onto Wang Jie like a puppy that desperately needed attention, chattering non-stop.

He put on a pitiful face, trying to chain Wang Jie to him using their bro bond: “Come on! I’m so good to you! We’ve been buddies for decades~”

“Counting on two hands, it’s only been three months.”

Wang Jie walked ahead while Shaoqing was right at his heels.

Seeing that his “brotherly love” tactic wasn’t working, Shaoqing’s expression changed immediately: “Fine! You go ahead! Hurry up and roll! We’re no longer brothers!”

“You’re going home because you’re bored on the weekend, right? Haven’t you not been back in a few weeks?”

“Good for you! Not only are you ditching your bro! You’re forcing me to go off and die, huh?!”

Shaoqing cursed, “Damn it! I’ve been so good to you! And now that you’re down on your luck, you don’t even acknowledge me?!”

He switched gears and sighed with a tone full of grievances: “People change, man~”

Ning Chu and Wen Yang, trailing behind, couldn’t help but laugh at Shaoqing’s dramatic antics.

Their laughter immediately caught Shaoqing’s attention.

“You two still have the face to laugh?! Wen Yang, you’re out here with a girlfriend and not even returning to the dorm! Partying every night! Do you still have your bro in your head or what?!” Shaoqing chided Wen Yang with righteous indignation, “I was the one who helped you find Wen Wen’s rental apartment! And now it’s all good! You’re never in the dorm!”

“I’m not even gone all the time!” Wen Yang rolled his eyes, “Haven’t I been here for the past few days?”

Ning Chu turned her head away, somewhat shy.

Just because Wen Yang stayed at her place, it wasn’t like they were partying every night! What is this nonsense?!

“So you’re still around on the weekend?”

“That’s hard to say…”

“Well, there you have it! Ugh! Jerkwad!”

“???”

Somehow getting slapped with the “jerkwad” label, Wen Yang scratched his head in resignation and shook it.

Shaoqing just couldn’t stand solitude, always restless and making noise. It was a bit unfair to leave a guy like him alone in the dorm.

“And you! Ning Chu…”

He turned to scold Ning Chu, but after thinking it over, a girl not wanting to live in the boys’ dorm didn’t seem that unreasonable.

“Damn it, all of you are abandoning me! Now I understand why there are so many lonely old people—it’s all ungratefulness~”

Ning Chu shot him a glare: “Scram.”

After some playful banter, a few days later, Ning Chu returned to the boys’ dorm once again.

Just a few days away, and her desk had turned into a cluttered mess, all sorts of random stuff piled on top.

The dorm had a faint odor of foot smell. She hadn’t noticed it before, but now, catching a whiff, it made her frown.

“Meow~”

As soon as she opened the door, a little black shadow shot in like a rocket, clamping onto Shaoqing’s ankle and vigorously pouncing and gnawing.

“Look at this cat, as if it holds a grudge against me, a total ingrate.”

As he spoke, Shaoqing tried to shake his foot to kick Black Bean off.

Wen Yang glanced over and said, “Black Bean is just playing with you. Who told you not to buy it any toys? At least get a cat teaser or something.”

“You get it, you take care of it.”

“……”

He had a point, but Wen Yang wasn’t really a cat person.

Silently, he began packing up Black Bean’s belongings, preparing to take them away.

Just as Ning Chu was struggling with how to get Black Bean out, the cat dutifully dove into a takeout bag lying on the floor.

How convenient!

Beaming, she picked up the bag along with the cat, weighed it a little, and found that Black Bean was not as heavy as Shaoqing claimed—not even ten pounds, maybe around five.

For a half-month-old kitten, five pounds was a normal weight.

The little furball that had been shivering in the rain, looking like a skeleton, was now fluffy and shiny, with a plump, bouncy body to boot.

“Heading out?”

“Yeah.” Wen Yang had packed up the cat stuff and was ready to leave with Ning Chu.

“Hey! Make sure to feed it well! Don’t let it starve!”

“Don’t worry.”

Ning Chu wasn’t a monster; there was no way she’d deliberately let the cat starve.

To manage taking Black Bean on the bus, she double-bagged the transparent plastic bag with a black garbage bag, giving it a gentle shake. The cat inside looked quite comfortable and was even purring.

Smooth sailing all the way, half an hour later, Ning Chu arrived at her rental apartment.

She set down the bag with the cat on the floor and turned around to see Wen Yang already setting up a small gate at the door with the cat enclosure to prevent Black Bean from sneaking out.

“Where do you want the litter box?”

“Hmm.”

Ning Chu looked around, deciding to put the litter box right outside the bathroom while the food bowl would go next to the computer desk.

Shaoqing had also gotten an automatic water dispenser for the cat—a weekly change would suffice.

It seemed like owning a cat wouldn’t be too much hassle after all.

Arriving in a new environment, Black Bean was a little timid, hiding in a corner and peeking out with its reflective big eyes.

“Black Bean~ Shaoqing doesn’t want you anymore. You have to behave, okay?”

“Meow~”

“Wen Yang! It understood!”

Only then did Wen Yang set up the cat enclosure on the door frame, stepped inside, and glanced down at the shy Black Bean hiding in the corner, asking, “Do you want me to go downstairs and get you dinner? What do you feel like?”

“Umm… just buy something random; I’m not that hungry.”

“How about Sha County style?”

“Sounds good.”

Seeing Black Bean lurking, Ning Chu lost the urge to tease it any further. She opened her laptop and got back to her novel writing.

She needed to finish the beginning of the story by the end of the weekend to send it to the editors of major websites by Monday.

If she could get a contract, the perfect attendance award was definitely hers!

“Hmm, why does it feel odd all of a sudden?”

After barely writing two lines, Ning Chu felt something bubble up—a sudden heat and emptiness in her lower abdomen, making her uncomfortable as she twisted her waist.

Wen Yang was just downstairs, right? He wouldn’t derail the plot while picking up dinner, would he?

Her cheeks flushed hot, a rich shade of pink spreading from her cheeks, creeping up to her ears and neck in a subtly intimate hue.

She couldn’t control her hurried breaths, her legs feeling soft as she slowly made her way to the bed and dove under the covers.

If Wen Yang came back right now…

A solitary guy and a girl, both getting in touch with their feelings!

Ning Chu’s moral dilemma entirely hinged on Wen Yang’s arrival.

She felt the bed quivering and turned to see Black Bean curiously trotting over, sniffing at her face, then glancing at her hidden lower half peeking out from under the covers.

“Meow~”

A wave of intense embarrassment surged through her.

This wasn’t just any cat! It was a future catgirl!

It felt as if she were exposing herself in front of a naive little girl…

With glazed-over eyes, despite her weakened body, she tossed Black Bean off the bed.

No peeking!

Just then, the door swung open, and Wen Yang stepped in with keys in hand, carrying a takeout box. The moment he walked in, he saw Ning Chu frantically chucking Black Bean off the bed as if she had seen a ghost and quickly diving back beneath the covers, head hidden away.

“What’s going on? Doing something bad?”

“……”

The room filled with a faint aroma, and as soon as Wen Yang closed the door, the tension pulled him in like a magnet.

At that moment, Ning Chu dared not show her face.
