320. Bust Size
“Up this early?”
“Nope, I was up all night.”
Ning Yuan looked up at his sister Ning Chu, who was shuffling out of her room wearing baggy cotton pajamas. You could vaguely see the outline of her tail poking out from her pant legs. Her hair, which was now shoulder-length, was a bit messy with a tuft sticking up, but her face was completely devoid of any signs of sleep deprivation. Instead, she looked invigorated.
“Ah, youth is wonderful,” Ning Yuan yawned, slumped on the sofa. “Back in my university days, I could pull all-nighters for days on end. Now if I sleep in even a little, I’m like a zombie the next day.”
“You’re not that much older than me.”
Ning Chu grumbled as she shuffled off to the bathroom to freshen up.
It wasn’t really about being young or energetic; she’d just had too much of yesterday’s afternoon tea, which messed up her sleep that night.
Now, after a night of gaming marred by defeat, she was feeling utterly drained. If only she could just fall asleep without fighting her sleepiness, she would’ve bounced back quickly. But instead, she was wide awake and ended up losing five games in a row, wanting to smash her computer in frustration.
Sleeping would’ve been better!
After a quick wash, Ning Chu heard the sound of a door opening from the master bedroom. She turned to see her uncle, looking slightly weary, strolled into the bathroom.
He nodded at her in greeting and went about his business.
Ning Chu cocked her head; wow, their mother must have quite the fighting spirit!
Even a burly uncle like him looked like he was barely holding up. Thinking back to the photos she’d seen of her father—a scrawny, handsome twig—it made total sense he could’ve run away from home, drained!
The master bedroom door swung open again, and her mother, looking flushed and cheerful, stepped out.
Since Ning Chu hadn’t slept all night, she had kept track of when everyone had returned home… Black Bean and Ning Yuan probably got back around ten, bringing her a barbecue treat, while her mother and uncle must have trundled in around one in the morning.
Her mother walked over to the sink outside the bathroom and stood side by side with Ning Chu, peering into the mirror to examine the faint crow’s feet around her eyes. With a gentle tone, she asked, “Has Black Bean gotten up yet? Still snoring away?”
Usually, her mother could be quite unpleasant in the mornings, with her morning grumpiness being legendary.
But today, she seemed pretty chipper, always sporting a light smile.
“Still in bed, sawing logs,” Ning Chu shrugged, squeezing some facial wash into her palm, casually throwing her sister under the bus. “She went out for barbecue with brother last night.”
“Oh really?”
Surprisingly, her mother wasn’t mad at all. Instead, she nodded with a smile and said, “Just keep an eye on her; try not to let her eat from street vendors. It’s not clean.”
Happy mom = easygoing mom!
Normally, if the siblings ate street food, there’d be a lecture coming their way!
Is this the charm of men?
Ning Chu took a few tiny steps closer to her mother. “Mom.”
“Yes?”
“Never mind…”
She hesitated to ask her mother about succubus knowledge.
She was quite curious because succubus emotions could strike at random, leading to situations where one moment felt blissful, and the next was a burning desire.
Plus, she had never observed her mother displaying any peculiar behavior as if she had mastered the art of controlling such moments.
“What’s there to be shy about?” Her mother was surprisingly open-minded. “If you want to ask, go ahead. You just became a girl, and there are things you need to know. What if you end up with some illness because you’re too shy to ask?”
“What illness could I possibly have?! I’m not reckless!”
“Like abnormal discharge? Where are you wandering off to with your thoughts?”
“……”
While applying her makeup, her mother continued mentoring Ning Chu: “Now that you’re a girl, make sure to pay attention to hygiene. Stay clean and dry, or various illnesses will eventually find you.”
Is that really a saying?
When she first transitioned, Ning Chu was only brave enough to do some simple cleaning and avoided touching her new ‘accessory’ at all, yet she hadn’t encountered any gynecological issues.
Her face flushed as she realized that while female knowledge was essential, it was still super embarrassing.
Her mother glanced over at her and changed the topic. “What’s your bust size now?”
“Uh… B+, I guess?”
With the tender care of her little boyfriend and a plot twist that sped up her development, Ning Chu’s bust had indeed crept up to a B+. Even Wen Yang’s big hands could barely cover them.
“Is that so? Go grab the measuring tape from my room. I’ll check it for you,” her mother murmured, “You really developed fast… Like a sudden burst of growth?”
What was once flat now had some ‘volume.’
But still less than the succubus average.
Her mother’s teasing made Ning Chu’s ears heat up, and she immediately realized that soon she’d have to undress in front of her mother again.
“Mom, just give me the measuring tape; I can measure it myself.”
“Do you even know how to measure?”
“Yeah.”
“Then go find it in my nightstand, on the left side.”
“Okay.”
Ning Chu slathered on one last layer of moisturizer to her face, not bothering to rub it in properly, and then bolted towards the door, escaping from her mother.
She found the measuring tape in the nightstand and darted back to her room, locked the door, and realized there was still a snoozing catgirl on her bed.
Well, she was still asleep.
She peeled off her cotton pajama top and, following an online tutorial step by step, began measuring her bust.
Well… it was indeed at a B+ level, fluctuating between a standard B and C for the measurements.
C was just around the corner; things were getting increasingly scandalous…
She once thought being flat was best—less fabric needed, freer movement, and it wouldn’t seem too risqué.
But now, it was nearly impossible to avoid getting any bigger, and terrifyingly, she felt a tad excited about it.
“Sis! I want to measure too!”
“……”
Thank goodness she was wearing a bra.
Since there was a guy in the house now, Ning Chu didn’t prance around in her pajamas like she might have in her rental apartment. So even if Black Bean spotted her, she wouldn’t feel too embarrassed.
Besides, she’d already seen things she shouldn’t have when she was still a cat.
She slipped back into her cotton pajamas and turned around to face Black Bean, who was sprawled out on the edge of her bed with her tail up.
“You… probably can’t measure anything yet.”
Although Black Bean had entered puberty as a cat and even had her first period now as a catgirl, she still was totally flat.
“Really?” Black Bean didn’t seem to mind, yawning and leaning back on the bed, looking like she’d doze off again any second.
“Get up, we have class at tutoring school!”
Her cat ears twitched, but she ignored Ning Chu.
Talk about the ice princess charm of that aloof black cat! No wonder their home had been in utter chaos yesterday morning; their mother was livid…
“Up and at ’em!” Ning Chu grabbed Black Bean’s cat ears firmly. “Hurry! Otherwise, Mom’s going to be mad at you again!”
“I’m just an innocent little kitten! Why do I have to go to class?”
“Quit whining!”
“I’m still growing! I need all my beauty sleep!”
“You can nap in the afternoon!”
Ning Chu twisted Black Bean’s ear, ignoring any further excuses, and dragged her toward the door.
This cat was either always hungry or just wanted to sleep.
