258. The Fox Spirit
“Where are you?”
“Hospital…”
Ning Chu hurriedly walked through the school gate, her stomach growling, while she asked, “How did you end up in the hospital?”
“When I went to buy you breakfast, this girl fainted right in front of me… I couldn’t just ignore it, could I?”
She twitched her lips. Of course, Wen Yang had gotten himself into trouble because of a woman.
“You still have class~” While rescuing a damsel in distress was undoubtedly noble, her empty stomach was very vocal about its discontent, but she didn’t scold him, “Wasn’t there anyone else around?”
“There were, but nobody had time.” Wen Yang on the other end sounded equally helpless, “I was going to leave when the ambulance arrived, but they said I called, so I had to go with them.”
“Okay…”
“I asked for leave for the first class, I should be back by ten.” Wen Yang sounded a bit anxious, “I won’t get blamed for this, right?”
“Can’t say for sure.”
“I don’t have any money though…”
What’s at stake isn’t your money, it’s your life!
Ning Chu rolled her eyes internally. Hearing the class bell ring, she realized she was already late and slowed down her hurried footsteps.
One minute late is still late; ten minutes late is also late. Whatever.
“What was that girl’s name?”
“Let me see… Nana, she’s a vampire. I’ve seen her around school before.”
“Alright…”
The weak vampire girl with a fear of men.
No surprise, because of Wen Yang’s noble deed, Nana will develop a crush on him, and her intense fear of men will lessen in his presence.
Soon she’ll ask him to help cure her fear, and their interactions will grow increasingly affectionate…
“Whatever she asks you to do, don’t agree.” Ning Chu’s tone became serious.
She certainly didn’t want the male protagonist she had been grooming for months to be snatched away.
Plus, she had a bit of a psychological cleanliness issue. Back when she was a guy, she was determined to find a pure one; now that she’s a girl, having the same thought is just normal, right?
Why is it only men who get to make demands of girls?
“I’m heading to class now, gotta go.”
“Okay.”
“I’m so hungry…”
Hearing that weak complaint, Wen Yang quickly tried to make it up, “I’ll bring you something to eat when I’m back at ten, just hang in there.”
“Yeah, starving to d*ath here.”
“Good girl.”
Her complaints were just to hear comfort from Wen Yang, and Ning Chu’s mood lightened a bit. She hung up and looked up through the front door toward the classroom.
The teacher had obviously finished taking attendance and was already lecturing. Without her, Zhang Shaoqing and Wang Jie had migrated to the back of the classroom, playing on their phones, while Yan Xinya and Lily sat with their roommate Lin Li.
She gently knocked on the wooden door of the classroom.
The teacher turned her head and glanced over: “Come in.”
Thank goodness college teachers aren’t as strict as those in middle and high school; they don’t make you stand in the corner for being late.
Ning Chu let out a sigh of relief and jogged into the classroom. Just as she hesitated about where to sit, Yan Xinya waved at her first.
“Where’s Wen Yang? Didn’t he come with you today?”
“Did you two break up?”
As soon as Ning Chu sat down, she shot Lin Li a glare.
This fox spirit! Just thinking about her breaking up, huh?
“Stop talking nonsense~” Yan Xinya was more annoyed, this was a couple she helped get together, and she didn’t want any demons meddling, “Ning Chu and Wen Yang are getting along well, okay?”
“Then how come she hasn’t devoured Wen Yang yet, being a succubus and all?”
Being a fox girl, Lin Li easily noticed that Ning Chu was still a pure flower.
“Ning Chu’s just conservative!”
“……”
Seeing her almost burst out laughing, the Wolf Girl was indignant: “Isn’t Lily also very conservative? What’s wrong with being a succubus?”
Lin Li shot a glance at the cold, expressionless Lily, unable to hold it in, she lowered her head, covering her mouth, shaking with laughter.
As her roommate, she certainly knew this iceberg girl was desperate on the inside; she just hadn’t found a boyfriend because of her personality.
“Keep it down.” Ning Chu was afraid the other students in front and behind them would overhear, “Stop causing a ruckus.”
“Wen Yang is probably busy with some woman outside~ that’s why he hasn’t touched you.”
She glanced at that fox spirit, the attempts at stirring the pot were too lowbrow for her to even get mad about.
Yan Xinya shot back without hesitation: “The one chasing after you is a deadbeat fatty, are you jealous of Ning Chu now?”
“……”
The fox spirit rested her melancholy chin on the table, her big fox ears drooping like wilted flowers, she sighed dramatically: “I’m not bad looking, you know…”
A deadbeat fatty… that fits the image of some otaku protagonist perfectly.
Ning Chu didn’t feel like mocking her, she too laid her head down on the desk, rubbing her belly.
Suddenly skipping breakfast made her hunger all the more unbearable.
To top it off, Aunt Flo had made her monthly appearance.
The swelling in her chest had eased due to continuous massaging over the past few days, but now, with her period messing with her hormone levels, it started swelling painfully again.
She definitely needed new underwear; it was getting tight; she simply didn’t wear any today, after all, she’d be wearing layers in the fall and winter.
Though the term “going commando” felt a bit risqué and embarrassing, as long as nobody found out, it was fine.
Ning Chu wasn’t quite sure about her current size; she’d have to go buy bras in a physical store sometime and measure herself.
This weekend… no, she couldn’t. She had to meet the neighbor’s big brother.
“Lily.”
Hearing her voice, Lily looked at her, slightly confused.
“Um…” She glanced around, her face turning red, choosing to chat with Lily through her phone instead.
Although they sat across from each other, discussing embarrassing things online significantly reduced the shame factor.
“My chest hurts a lot; is rubbing the only thing that helps? Will it keep hurting like this?”
“You’ll be fine once you’re done growing.”
“It’s not done yet…”
“How long has it been? Your tattoos have barely developed!”
While other succubi develop all at once, Ning Chu had hers developing in stages, piece by piece.
Logically, the silver markings should be fully formed now, and everything from her tail to her chest should have matured.
“So, what if one side gets neglected by accident… will one be bigger than the other?”
“What do you mean neglected? Use both hands! Oh, but you have a boyfriend…” Lily typed calmly: “If one side ends up bigger, just let him take care of the smaller one.”
“……”
Ning Chu couldn’t hold it in anymore.
She’d never figured out how Lily managed to keep that stoic face while saying the most embarrassing things.
“Is it possible Wen Yang has a problem?”
Ning Chu didn’t want to keep bothering Lily, but Lily had gotten curious, pressing on her phone: “He seems pretty fit to me. Shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“I’m still a kid.”
“From a development standpoint, sure.”
Ning Chu silently rolled her eyes at Lily and put down her phone.
She looked longingly towards the classroom’s front door, still no sign of Wen Yang; there was nothing left to do but pay attention to the lecture.
So far, there hadn’t been any action on her end, she had no clue what was happening with Wen Yang…
