209. Shopping
With her mother clasping her arm, the two of them were sizing up the clothing stores along the street.
Ning Chu wore a face full of exasperation. She felt that she had absolutely no need for women’s clothing recently, but her mother insisted on buying her some.
She really had no idea what styles her mother liked, which made her a bit anxious.
Ning Yuan strolled along behind them, occasionally glancing up at the two, still having a hard time believing it all, and feeling dubious about Ning Chu’s situation.
It really was a bit absurd.
He couldn’t fathom why their mother was accepting this change faster than he was.
But all the details certainly showed that his younger brother had indeed become his younger sister.
That little mound sticking out from the chest was quite obviously not due to being overweight. That beautiful face—even a real girl wouldn’t boast such looks. And the delicate frame made her seem petite, almost fragile, in a way that certainly wouldn’t be typical of a guy.
Looking at Ning Chu’s back, she really did appear to be a girl.
Ning Yuan was momentarily baffled.
So how was he supposed to treat his own little brother from now on?
Up ahead, their mother was whispering to Ning Chu, “Ning Chu, don’t get involved with those succubus circles.”
“Huh?”
“Most succubi have rather messy personal lives.”
Ning Chu nodded; she had always been indifferent to small circles and understood the reason behind her mother’s advice.
Take that succubus who organized club activities under the pretense of sleepovers— in reality, it was just a debauchery fest. If it hadn’t been for her reporting it, who knows how many innocent little boys would have been drained dry!
She had truly done a great service.
“Best not to have succubus friends at all. They might lead you astray.”
“Got it.”
So was her mother’s personal life messy…
Ning Chu raised a curious gaze, only to be met with a fierce glare from her mother.
Better not to think about it.
“If you end up growing a tail or horns, keep them hidden. Don’t let anyone touch them.”
“Understood.”
Those were the weaknesses of a succubus, akin to Wukong’s tail in his childhood—one little touch, and all resistance disappears.
Having been a succubus for some time, she had a pretty good idea about most of them.
Due to their high sensitivity and frequent bouts of pleasure, most succubi were insatiable vixens, treating men as prey… every time there was a crackdown, they were involved.
A small number of them were more restrained and would find a relatively fixed partner.
As for Lily, using toys to get by was something Ning Chu hadn’t even heard of online—rare, indeed.
Compared to them, Lily really was a pure succubus.
Her mother, on the other hand, was all for her finding a good boyfriend quickly.
Hmm, Wen Yang perfectly met her mother’s requirements but was so good at it that it scared her.
He was that big! Even a succubus could break from that!
Ning Chu shuddered at the memories of Wen Yang’s prowess, recalling descriptions from the book: his lower abdomen bulging, entering the womb like a pile driver…
Too terrifying~
When writing that, she’d been all about the thrill, never considering if it was absurd in reality. How could she know that, as the author, she’d someday truly find herself penetrated by the prince charming she penned?
Lost in these thoughts, Ning Chu was suddenly pulled toward a women’s clothing store by her mother.
Only then did she lift her head and check out the style of clothes in that shop.
Thankfully, it looked pretty normal.
Most of it was skirts, perhaps because skirts were better at hiding tails, which Lily and her mother both preferred.
But this store had mostly short skirts…
“Try this one on!”
As soon as they entered, her mother had her eyes set on a little short skirt.
“Mom, this skirt is too short…”
“You’re young! Don’t you want to look good in it?”
Honestly, Ning Chu agreed with her mother, and she had experienced short skirts long before.
But the problem was! Her brother was still right behind them!
Feeling a little embarrassed, she glanced back at Ning Yuan, who was sitting idly in the store, playing on his phone.
It felt a lot more embarrassing wearing a skirt in front of her brother, who had been her playmate since childhood.
“Quick, go try it on! You’ll look great~”
“……”
Under her mother’s insistence, Ning Chu could only grit her teeth and take the short skirt into the fitting room.
She had initially been worried about her mother’s taste being too tacky; now she just prayed her mother wouldn’t choose anything outrageous.
Wearing such clothing in private was one thing, but could she not do it in front of her brother?
Finally, after some hesitation, Ning Chu emerged from the changing room with a slightly flushed face, taking small steps.
She didn’t dare look in Ning Yuan’s direction, only admiring herself in the mirror, accepting her mother’s compliments.
“See? It suits you so well~ Let’s buy it!”
“Mom, shouldn’t you check the price first?”
Aren’t you the one who haggles over vegetables?
Her mother ignored her, beaming as she shoved a pair of hot pants into Ning Chu’s hands.
She sighed helplessly, stiffening her legs and sneaking a look back over her shoulder.
Her brother looked genuinely shocked, as if he’d witnessed the ugly duckling of their childhood transform into a beautiful swan, his jaw almost unhinged.
Feeling a bit smug for no reason~
The embarrassment faded somewhat as Ning Chu began to understand why some girls liked to dress beautifully, even in the dead of winter wearing skirts.
Being looked at with admiration by a man gave her a strange sense of accomplishment.
It seemed her boyish heart was getting a bit naughty!
“Mom, my phone…”
“What’s wrong?”
After snatching her phone from her mother, Ning Chu took a few pictures in the full-length mirror. Not quite satisfied, she quickly applied a beauty filter.
She had never used a beauty filter for photos before…
“Which guy are you sending those to?”
“None, I’m just saving them for myself.”
Ning Chu vigorously shook her head, denying Wen Yang’s existence while hurriedly dashing back into the fitting room, shutting the door behind her, and secretly sending Wen Yang a picture.
This time, it was the hot pants…
Ning Chu did quite like hot pants, especially those made from thinner material.
They highlighted a nice backside and made her legs look straighter, though she preferred to admire rather than wear them.
Stepping out of the fitting room again, she took a few more pictures of herself.
The combination of hot pants and a short-sleeved top subtly revealed her flat little belly, giving a youthful and vibrant look—if only her brother wouldn’t fixate on her legs.
Once she and her brother used to swap pictures of their pretty legs, and now, look where they had ended up…
“Mom, winter is about to set in, and you’re still buying me short skirts and shorts.”
Ning Chu was truly having a hard time processing all this.
“Buying now is cheaper,” her mother chirped, admiring her pretty “daughter,” gently handing her another outfit as if Ning Chu were merely a clothes rack. “Now, try this one on too.”
“Forget it! I’m tired!”
Ning Chu pushed back against her mother’s tyranny, “We still have to go to the hospital this afternoon! If we dawdle, we’ll be late!”
Glancing at her glowing, embarrassed face, her mother frowned slightly. “Alright, last outfit?”
“……”
“Come on, add some stockings~”
