36. Cross-Dressing
14/57
The school’s dormitory area is divided into several sections. Ning Chu’s dorm is relatively close to the teaching building and playground, making it convenient for daily classes, but also prone to being disturbed by the school’s broadcasts.
And here we are, in the girls’ dormitory area…
After walking around a small park and an artificial lake for about ten minutes, Ning Chu and Wen Yang finally arrived in front of Yan Xinya’s dorm building.
“Wen Yang!”
“Ah! Wen Yang!”
Several excited squeals came from above.
If those cheers and cheers were understandable during the sports meeting at the playground—after all, it was about sports and competition—then what’s the deal with going wild at the dorm? Don’t those fangirls have any shame?
Ning Chu had never seen such a scene before. Following the noise, she spotted Lin Li, who was wearing a tiny tank top, jumping up and down with her right hand raised, trying to attract attention.
If it’s Lin Li, then this vixen seriously has no shame.
Her mouth twitched as she glanced at Wen Yang, who had a poker face, maintaining his handsome boy demeanor.
“Enjoying yourself? What’s with the stiff face?”
“It’s okay.”
“Hmm?”
Wen Yang immediately backed down; his cool demeanor vanished as he awkwardly explained, “I feel a bit embarrassed…”
Before Ning Chu could say more, Yan Xinya bolted out of the dorm building like a gust of wind.
“Ning Chu!”
“Where’s Lily?”
Ning Chu watched as the wolf girl rushed toward her and then grabbed her arm.
“Let’s go!”
“What?”
Before she could comprehend what was happening, she felt her body lean forward uncontrollably, her legs stumbling along with the wolf girl’s force toward the girls’ dormitory.
“What the heck?!”
“Changing clothes!”
“No!”
Ning Chu, utterly befuddled, wanted to stop, but in that moment, she experienced why there are always incidents of dogs walking humans.
She simply couldn’t stop!
Even though her feet had steadied, her body kept surfing toward the dorm.
“Wen Yang!”
She hurriedly looked back at the equally bewildered Wen Yang, trying to seek help.
But as they turned into the corridor, she watched Wen Yang disappear from her sight. Although she knew Yan Xinya meant her no harm, the moment she couldn’t see Wen Yang, a wave of anxiety rushed over her.
“We’re here!”
Ning Chu finally came to a halt, catching her breath and glancing around.
They were in the first-floor corridor of the girls’ dormitory.
“I want to go back!” she panicked, trying to wiggle out of Yan Xinya’s grip. She instinctively looked toward the door, hoping to spot Wen Yang.
“You can’t leave until you change into a skirt.”
“No way! I hate wearing skirts!”
“That’s not going to happen~” Yan Xinya teased with a smirk, “If you don’t change quickly, Wen Yang might get snatched away by other girls~”
Ning Chu stared at her in shock: “……”
Right! Not only could she face danger by leaving Wen Yang, but he could also meet other characters from the plot.
This is still the girls’ dorm area, and all around are girls!
She became even more anxious: “Then hurry!”
“Hurry into the dorm and change~”
Ning Chu quickly dashed into the dormitory. Lily immediately approached with a deadpan expression, holding out a small skirt.
“Take it off!” Yan Xinya cheerfully slammed the door shut and excitedly moved closer.
“……”
In the rush and panic, her sense of shame was scattered everywhere.
Ning Chu glanced at Lily, then at the excited wolf girl. The thought of changing in front of two girls turned her face beet red.
“No, I’m going to the bathroom to change…”
She awkwardly tried to dodge their gazes, her hands unconsciously clutching the hem of her coat.
“Why be shy~”
“……”
As she fell silent, Yan Xinya handed her the skirt and shirt: “Quickly, Wen Yang is waiting!”
“Did Wen Yang ask you to do this…”
“No, he just asked me to find a way for you to wear girl clothes. I told him to get you out, and I’ll handle the rest!”
Look at her smug face—she seemed rather proud of herself.
Ning Chu couldn’t muster the energy to be angry at the wolf girl, sighing in frustration: “Fine, fine, I get it.”
“Be quick now~”
With no other option, she reluctantly picked up the skirt and shirt, pursed her lips, and darted into the bathroom.
They say the girls’ dorm bathrooms have a strong smell, but Yan Xinya’s dorm was impeccably clean, the tiles on the floor and walls sparkling— even the toilet was clean as a whistle.
However clean, it clearly had nothing to do with Yan Xinya’s rough attitude.
Ning Chu complained internally as she glanced at the small skirt.
It wasn’t the first time wearing one. She had easily convinced herself when wearing the maid outfit as a waitress before, so this time she didn’t have much psychological barrier.
But one problem stood out—the skirt was a bit short.
After putting it on, Ning Chu measured her thigh—at least half was visibly exposed.
“Hope I won’t flash anyone…”
“Well, if I do, I’m wearing boy shorts underneath…”
Thinking about it, she felt a bit more at ease~
After slipping on the shirt, Ning Chu faced another problem.
The skirt was low-waisted, and the tattoo on her lower abdomen couldn’t be completely hidden; the outline of the design peeked out just enough to be seen.
The shirt was also a bit short. While standing still wasn’t a problem, if she raised her arms, her lower abdomen and those pesky lines would be clearly visible.
Usually, she wore mid-rise pants, so even if her waist showed, it wouldn’t expose her lower abdomen.
“What will Wen Yang think if he sees this…”
She tugged at the skirt, but raising it only exposed more of her thighs.
“Are you done yet? Wen Yang’s going to get snatched away!”
Ning Chu opened the door with a gloomy face: “What am I supposed to do about this?”
She pointed at the outline above the skirt: “What if Wen Yang notices?”
“It’s just a little bit; it won’t be a problem~” Yan Xinya peeked, then handed Ning Chu some thigh-high stockings and leg bands, “Come on! You put these on, and I’ll fix your hair.”
“Really no problem?”
“Absolutely! Who’s going to stare at your belly? Plus, the clothes will cover it, just don’t raise your arms!”
“Besides, there’s the coat too!”
As the time away from Wen Yang increased, Ning Chu more eagerly wanted to return to his side.
She sighed in resignation, accepting the reality: “Alright then.”
“Such a pretty girl in a skirt, how can you not love it~”
“Let’s hurry.”
Her bangs, which she hadn’t cut since crossing over, now easily covered her eyes, and the sides completely blocked her ears. She usually styled her hair in a side part, a bit messy but manageable.
Now, with Yan Xinya using clips to fix and decorate her hair, as her hairstyle became more feminine, she felt more and more like a high school student.
“Okay! You look beautiful! Right?”
Lily nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Ning Chu had put on her thigh-highs and leg bands. Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn’t shake off the feeling of being sultry.
With no time to think too much, she eagerly turned around and asked, “Can I go out now?”
“Go ahead!”
She rushed out the door in haste.
“Hey! Aren’t you forgetting your coat?”
Ning Chu flusteredly ran back, rolling her eyes at Yan Xinya, before grabbing the girl’s coat.
“Lily’s generous contribution, you know~”
“Thanks!”
