266. Dressed Like a Girl for Class
“Hey, who’s that beauty sitting next to Wen Yang?”
In the back row, a classmate whispered to his buddy while staring at the long-skirted girl in the front row.
“That’s Ning Chu, right? Who else could sit next to Wen Yang without getting kicked out?”
“What? Isn’t Ning Chu a guy?”
“Just a cross-dresser~”
Just then, a student who had just walked into the classroom chimed in, “I took a glance earlier, and it really is Ning Chu!”
“He looks better in women’s clothing than Lily!”
“I think Lily looks a bit better~ She’s got a bigger chest.”
Honestly, since Ning Chu was already super pretty, seeing her in women’s clothing didn’t shock anyone—it felt perfectly normal.
“Do you think he’s a guy or a girl?”
“Probably a guy? He lives in the boys’ dorm!”
Ning Chu sat nervously beside Wen Yang, trying to catch snippets of what classmates were saying about her, a blush creeping onto her face.
She was technically a girl now, but showing up in women’s clothes had her feeling all the embarrassment of a guy dressed as a girl…
Especially Wang Jie, whose look of sheer shock made it hard for her to lift her head.
“How about a novel featuring Ning Chu and Wen Yang? Only ten bucks~”
Ning Chu suddenly heard something strange and turned to see Lin Li enthusiastically promoting her work.
Ten bucks? She only gets a dime for every two thousand words she writes online!
What a scam!
“Xinya, what’s this about the novel featuring me and Wen Yang?” Ning Chu gently poked Yan Xinya’s arm, “Have you read it?”
Please don’t tell me it’s some kind of royal romance!
“She wrote it,” Lily immediately spilled the tea on her friend.
“!!!”
Yan Xinya quickly explained, “It’s not any weird stuff, just a love story.”
Earlier, someone in the class had mentioned wanting to write a story about the two of them, but Wolf Girl had been waiting for months without anything happening, only to discover it was just empty talk.
So she decided to write it herself.
“Let me see.”
“It’s really just a normal novel…”
Yan Xinya felt guilty but honestly, even if it were a royal romance, Ning Chu wouldn’t be mad.
After all, she had already written a royal romance starring herself and Wen Yang… who knows, maybe it would come true one day.
“What made you so willing to wear women’s clothes to class today?” Zhang Shaoqing asked curiously from across Wen Yang. “And you actually look pretty good, too bad you don’t have cat ears.”
“I wear what I want, what’s it to you?”
Cat ears? No thanks!
Ning Chu rolled her eyes at Zhang Shaoqing and discreetly shot a glance at Wen Yang.
Hasn’t he noticed yet? I put on makeup! Isn’t it obvious?!
Although she knew Wen Yang probably couldn’t tell…
“Are Ning Chu and Wen Yang already together?”
“Can’t be, they’re both guys.”
“Isn’t that even better? And how can you even see Ning Chu as a guy? He’s way prettier than you!”
“Stop talking…”
From the back, a fangirl squealed excitedly, and Ning Chu heard everything.
Just as Wen Yang said, she’d already outed herself; most students had recognized she was dating Wen Yang.
After all, she was always by his side, fending off any girls who came near him, and to onlookers, she probably looked like a jealous little girlfriend.
Her appearance and demeanor were feminine enough, even when wearing guys’ clothes—she could easily be seen as a refined and gentle girl. By now, most people probably viewed her as a girl anyway.
Class started, and roll call went on as usual.
“Ning Chu.”
“Here!”
But when Ning Chu raised her hand, the teacher paused for a moment, pushed up his glasses, and looked closely at her.
He had a vague memory of her, yes, that was definitely Ning Chu.
His brain nearly short-circuited at the sight of her suddenly wearing women’s clothing.
Ning Chu’s face was tense as she worried the teacher would say something, but he glanced down and continued reading the names.
She let out a small sigh of relief and leaned on her desk.
“You should wear girls’ clothes to class from now on,” Wen Yang whispered in her ear, suggesting, “Look, they all think it’s totally normal.”
“Um…”
Her ears turned crimson from the warm breath of Wen Yang speaking, and she instinctively shrank her neck, giving a soft response.
“And it really suits you! Look at how envious they are~”
Wen Yang’s compliment boosted her mood significantly, her eyebrows arching into a crescent moon smile.
Without makeup, she was already competitive with Lily, and with it—if they had a campus beauty contest, she’d definitely snag a spot.
This school was practically a royal romance stage, buzzing with beautiful girls, like an art academy!
Just a shame about her bust…
Ning Chu glanced down at her modest B-cup, which barely swelled under the long skirt.
And then there was Lily… sporting a matching long skirt but her chest was just sky-high!
Slowly beginning to focus on her bust size, she cast a bitter glance at Lily before returning to eavesdropping on her classmates.
To her surprise, she hadn’t heard any of the malicious comments she expected; most students didn’t have a problem with her wearing women’s clothing.
Maybe it was just that the culture of cross-dressing was getting more popular online? Though it definitely helped that she was pretty…
Wearing women’s clothes to class had brought her no trouble; if anything, classmate attention had simply intensified.
While attending class, she could feel a bunch of gazes quite clearly lingering on her.
As time passed, the initial embarrassment of wearing women’s clothes faded, and she began to embrace the stares of her classmates, even feeling a bit pleased internally.
“By the way, I’m heading to Lily’s this weekend to help her get her fall and winter clothes and blankets.”
Ning Chu suddenly told Wen Yang.
“How long are you going for?”
She turned to ask Lily, but it was Yan Xinya who answered: “Overnight, I think~ Leaving Friday night and coming back Saturday.”
Wen Yang felt no jealousy towards Lily and Wolf Girl; these two were instrumental in bringing him and Ning Chu together.
Without them, he wouldn’t know how long it would take to snag Ning Chu.
“Alright, just be careful.”
“And while I’m gone, don’t go attracting any annoying girls.”
That was Ning Chu’s own way of dealing with her little royal romance writing, but she confidently tossed the blame onto Wen Yang: “Can’t you just stop flirting?!”
With a resigned sigh, Wen Yang replied, “I don’t want to either…”
God knows why, ever since college started, girls were out in full force, throwing themselves at him like moths to a flame.
In just a few months, he had more girls chasing him than in the past decade and more.
“From now on, just give me your living expenses and weekend part-time money, okay?” Ning Chu suggested, “We’re eating together now anyway, might as well combine expenses.”
It wasn’t that she was eyeing Wen Yang’s few hundred bucks; she just hated going Dutch, making money transfers after every meal.
“Sure.” Wen Yang immediately lowered his head and transferred all his leftover money to Ning Chu.
“We aren’t even married yet~ and you’re already dealing with finances~”
Yan Xinya chimed in with a smile as sweet as honey after taking a sip.
