210. Using My Brother’s Money to Raise Men
17/40
After shopping, Ning Chu went to the hospital for a health check. By the time she returned home in the evening, she collapsed onto the sofa, completely exhausted.
So tired, I can’t even feel my limbs~
Fortunately, there was no gynecological exam; otherwise, she might have been subjected to those examination chairs commonly seen in H-anime that require you to spread your legs…
It would take some time to get the results, but her mother found the doctor who had checked Ning Chu when she was younger. She got a hospital certificate to make it easier for Ning Chu to change her ID gender in the countryside tomorrow.
“Be more ladylike.” Her mother sat beside her and patted her perky thigh. “You’re showing too much.”
“……”
Ning Chu quickly glanced in her brother’s direction, awkwardly placing her legs down.
No worries, from that angle, he can’t see anything.
She was already wearing the small skirt her mother had bought for her. Although it was November, the average temperature was still over twenty degrees, so pairing it with a slightly thicker pair of tights and throwing on a light coat was enough.
But the short skirt made her feel so insecure; it didn’t have a single pocket! She had to put her hypnosis spray in her mother’s handbag instead.
Once she was back at school, she probably had to switch to boy’s clothes again to avoid being talked about as a trap.
“I’ll grab you a cake; you rest here for half an hour. I’ll call you down in a bit.”
“Okay~”
Ning Chu lazily sprawled across the sofa, her head resting on the cushion, her legs draped over the armrest.
She grabbed her mobile phone to check the replies from Wen Yang.
“Looks good.”
“So pretty.”
“I’m using it as my wallpaper now?”
Only a straight guy would give such a bland compliment to his girlfriend.
Ning Chu pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and sent a playful reprimand: “What if Shao Qing sees your phone wallpaper!”
“Then I’ll just delete it.”
“What are you doing now? Checking up on you!”
Ning Yuan never thought he would feel shy around his younger brother; he sat down on a nearby armchair, and the former chatterbox suddenly became unusually withdrawn. His gaze would occasionally drift towards his younger sibling, but he quickly looked down, feeling guilty.
Wait, it’s a younger sister now.
Not just a younger sister but a succubus.
He had been at the hospital for the health check too, so he naturally learned about Ning Chu’s situation.
This reality is ridiculously absurd!
So if Ning Chu is a succubus, then his mother might be one too…
Having just graduated from university, his worldview was being challenged in ways he never imagined. He had finally accepted that his brother had become his sister, only to discover his sister was now a succubus!
He never noticed that a succubus had always been by his side.
Unable to resist his curiosity, Ning Yuan looked up at Ning Chu’s long legs, wrapped in black tights.
The short skirt accentuated the elegance of her already long legs, making them look even better. But as her brother, he had no dubious thoughts about it; if anything, he felt a bit shy.
He was kind of scared of girls…
After all, he had lived with his mother since childhood, but his sister… was a whole new strange experience.
“Bro, do you have a girlfriend?”
As she continued to chat with Wen Yang, Ning Chu casually asked her brother.
“No.”
“You’re already twenty-three or twenty-four and still single?” she murmured. “How about I set you up with someone? Do you like wolf girls? The kind that can knock you out with one punch.”
“……”
She raised her head, looking at the silent expression on Ning Yuan’s face.
Her brother was still that boy who was afraid of girls, unable to interact with any girl.
Even though their mother and brother had changed a bit in this parallel world, they were still the family she knew.
If only their mother wasn’t a succubus; she would rather be adopted… this would truly shatter her mother’s image.
Suddenly, her phone rang; it was their mother urging them to come downstairs.
Ning Chu quickly got up and dashed toward the front door, forgetting she was wearing tights. She slipped after taking just a couple of steps and fell to the ground.
“Ouch~”
Tears filled her eyes. Succubi are naturally sensitive; they can’t stand pain. At moments like this, she wished her silver markings weren’t complete, with the pain transforming into pleasure but with a bug in the system.
Pleasure is much better than pain, right?
But she still clutched her skirt, trying to avoid showing too much.
What if this turned into a scene from “Yuan no Kaze”?! That would be terrifying…
Ning Yuan was momentarily taken aback. “How can you be so careless?”
He rushed over to Ning Chu, extending his hand, and began to scold her out of habit. “You always rush around and make a fuss. Remember how you broke your bones three times when you were little and still didn’t learn your lesson?”
“Hurry up and get up, you…”
As her soft and delicate hand touched his, Ning Yuan’s scolding stopped. He looked down at Ning Chu’s tear-streaked, pitiful face.
In that instant, he realized his brother had truly become a girl.
Ning Chu’s hands hadn’t always been so delicate and soft; she never used to cry over a fall. Even though she wasn’t particularly strong, no matter how much trouble she was in or how many times she got hurt, she would pretend to be tough in front of others, hiding away to cry instead.
“Are you okay?”
“Ouch~ I’m fine…”
Oh, she’s still as tough-tongued as before.
He pulled Ning Chu up from the ground, observing her wobbly steps, and he couldn’t help but frown, feeling a headache coming on.
Given how much their mother was concerned about Ning Chu now, he was bound to get scolded.
Ning Chu gritted her teeth and wiped her tears, checking her knees and arms. Although it hurt quite a bit, it didn’t seem like anything was seriously injured.
“I’m really fine!”
“Then don’t cry while saying that.” Ning Yuan couldn’t stop himself from nagging, “I’ve been telling you to wear slippers! The ground is sticky and covered in footprints, and it’s easy to slip. Remember how you slipped in the bathroom once? You never learn, seriously…”
So annoying!
Why is her brother still such a chatterbox in this parallel world? Always blabbing on!
Being turned into a gentle and quiet succubus sister would have been lovely too!
Ning Chu wiped her tears and turned her head away in disdain. Her brother’s words went in one ear and out the other; she acted like she didn’t hear him.
But compared to his previous silent and withdrawn self, the current brother was actually pretty nice.
She rubbed her eyes, carefully put on her slippers, went to the bathroom to check her reflection in the mirror, and noticed her eyes were slightly red, looking quite pitiful.
She rubbed her face with a towel, trying to minimize the signs of having just cried.
“Mom called to hurry us up; let’s go.”
“Okay~”
Ning Chu lazily dragged out her words and followed Ning Yuan out of the house.
“Where are we eating tonight?”
“Steak, isn’t that your favorite?”
That’s because when I was little, we didn’t have money… Naturally, if I ate less, I liked it more.
Ning Chu didn’t explain this and followed her brother into the elevator.
After a moment of silence, she cautiously asked, “Hey, how did we suddenly get money?”
Buying clothes today alone had to be over a thousand.
“Money? It’s okay. I send home three thousand every month. Mom doesn’t spend much when she’s alone; she’s probably saved a lot.”
“……”
So all the money for raising men was coming from her brother?!
His salary was only five or six thousand, right?!
Ning Chu’s expression froze. Just thinking about how she had already spent most of her allowance this month made her feel even guiltier.
She stammered, “Then I’ll just take a little less for my allowance…”
“Mom initially said a thousand was enough. I think university is about studying, not a survival challenge, and you’ll probably want to date too. Prices are high now; I needed a thousand for living expenses when I was in college. Eating was tight.”
Ning Yuan sighed in frustration. “Now that you’re a girl, your expenses will be even higher later on.”
“……”
