37. Date
15/57
As soon as Ning Chu entered the lobby of the dormitory building, she spotted Wen Yang’s figure through the glass door.
And those several bad women surrounding him!
She stopped in her tracks, put on the coat Lily lent her, and adjusted her hairstyle a bit to ensure that her earlier rush didn’t ruin her cute look.
“Why do I care so much about my appearance? It’s just a stroll with Wen Yang.”
She paused her actions and muttered to herself, “They say people tend to dress up in front of someone they like, regardless of gender.”
Especially during those ambiguous stages…
Ning Chu’s expression darkened slightly. She shook her head, tossing those chaotic and ridiculous thoughts aside.
What’s important right now is! Those bad women pestering Wen Yang.
Seeing Wen Yang, who was awkwardly backing away from the bad women, made her furious!
Can’t she just call them out directly?
With enough quality, even the most persistent girls could be sent packing!
She thrust open the dormitory door, stormed forward, and expressionlessly pushed the girl in front of her, “Step aside.”
“?”
The girl turned around, looking at her in confusion.
“He has things to do with me. Stop bothering him here.”
After just a glance, the girl treated her like air and continued excitedly pressing toward Wen Yang, “Wen Yang! Can we go eat dinner together tonight?”
Ning Chu’s expression was about to crack.
She watched as one woman after another seemed ready to pounce on Wen Yang, and her tactics grew more aggressive. She pushed aside the obstacles in her way and advanced straight to Wen Yang, where protests erupted around her.
“No! We came first!”
“Who is this person?”
Wen Yang awkwardly lowered his head to look at Ning Chu, giving a helpless smile, “I can’t help it, my leg is injured, I can’t run…”
Dressed up as a girl, Ning Chu looked much more dazzling than usual, and with just one glance, his heart began to race uncontrollably.
Ning Chu caught his eye for a moment, seized Wen Yang’s hand, and pulled him out.
“Hey! Don’t go! Leave Wen Yang behind!”
With girls still chasing behind, she became even angrier and shouted, “Get lost! Are you annoying or what?”
“How rude can you be?”
Ning Chu’s face turned red as she shot a glare at the woman. Unexpectedly, the woman stared back defiantly.
“Who do you think you are, just taking him away without saying a word?”
“I am his…” She looked at her own outfit. Her roommate’s comments suddenly felt too embarrassing to say. In a moment of desperation, she blurted, “I’m his girlfriend! What’s it to you?”
Now the woman had nothing to say, muttering something in disappointment before turning to leave.
Wen Yang was also dumbfounded, bewilderedly being dragged away from the dormitory area to a secluded corner.
Once they stopped, Ning Chu immediately released his hand and cleared her throat, “Don’t think too much. I was just afraid you’d get tangled up with those girls for too long.”
“Uh… yeah.”
Ning Chu worried that she looked like a shrew just now, quickly adjusting her outfit again. She turned her head to avoid Wen Yang’s gaze, flipping her bangs aside as she tried to divert the topic with complaints, “What’s up with those girls? They’re acting like lunatics! What a bunch of infatuated fools…”
“Honestly, I’ve never seen anything like it. Anyone would think you’re a big celebrity.”
While Wen Yang listened to Ning Chu’s complaints and chimed in, his gaze was busy appreciating her feminine outfit.
Taking in those long legs peeking from under the short skirt, the black thigh-highs accentuating her slender legs, and the patch of white skin between the skirt and the stockings was mesmerizing, especially that leg ring, which left a delicate indentation, making her legs look even fuller.
In LSP’s words, those legs could make one swoon!
As for the upper half… well, not much to see—her waist was hidden behind the coat, so it left much to the imagination.
Wen Yang had bought the clothes based on what he saw on a high school girl during his tutoring, but that girl had stretched the shirt tight, while Ning Chu wore it and it barely showed any movement.
Kind of a pity~
Though there were a few small regrets, they could be addressed in the future, not a big deal.
“Are you even listening to me?” Ning Chu turned around, only to find Wen Yang staring at her with a dazed look.
She shot him a fierce glare, her face slightly flushed as she headed outside the school gate, “What are you staring at? Let’s go!”
“Okay.”
Wen Yang immediately followed her, feeling his heartbeat quicken and his cheeks slightly warm.
A gentle wave of joy washed over him, excitement flooding his brain. It made him feel light-headed… and he knew it wasn’t just the shyness after a close encounter with a girl.
He had encountered many beautiful girls before, but only Ning Chu made him feel this way.
Could this be love?
Ning Chu tried her best to calm down her emotions, but just two steps out, she felt his hand firmly grip hers.
She instinctively wanted to shake it off, but after several attempts with no success, she looked up at Wen Yang in slight surprise, only to quickly duck her head to avoid his warm, tender gaze.
Whatever, it wasn’t the first time…
If they were holding hands, who cares? Just as long as Zhang Shaoqing or Wang Jie don’t see them.
Ning Chu sighed, but as they stepped out of the school gate, she suddenly realized something.
“Wait, weren’t we going to shop with Xinya and Lily?” She turned back to look behind her, “Where are they?”
“They probably had something come up and couldn’t make it?”
“No…”
Weren’t they supposed to go shopping as four people? Now she was in girl’s clothes, holding hands with Wen Yang, and where the heck were Wolf Girl and Lily?
How did it end up just being the two of them?
Ning Chu asked in frustration, “Should we head back to the dorm? There’s really nothing to do.”
“Let’s go, what if we run into classmates?”
Her complexion paled, and she hurriedly pulled Wen Yang out toward the street.
If any classmates saw this scene, it would totally cement her status as Wen Yang’s girlfriend!
How is she supposed to handle that back in the dorm?
“Where to?”
“Let’s take a cab to the shopping district.”
“Isn’t that far?” Ning Chu, still trying to wrap up this inexplicable outing, asked skeptically, “Do you have money for the cab fare?”
Wen Yang smiled and nodded, “Yep. While you were napping at noon, I borrowed some from Shaoqing.”
“Thanks for reminding me, always remember to borrow money from Shaoqing when you’re broke.”
Ning Chu weakly protested, “Borrowing money isn’t good.”
“I have a tutoring class this weekend, don’t worry, it’s still that same kid from last time.” Wen Yang had it all planned out, “And it’s not far; I checked, the cab fare will be thirty.”
“……”
They had already reached the roadside outside the school. Ning Chu looked utterly defeated.
Just look at Wen Yang’s excited expression; in his eyes, this outing was clearly a date.
This guy even borrowed money in advance; he must have already arranged the entire afternoon’s itinerary.
She felt a tinge of worry, asking, “We’re just going to stroll around, right?”
“I also bought movie tickets.”
As expected!
