Chapter 100: 099. So awkward oh 【1/24】
“I’m going to grab some breakfast.”
As the four of them passed the cafeteria, Ning Chu stopped and glanced at the time. “You guys go to class first.”
Wen Yang nodded. “Yeah, you two head to class.”
“Then bring me a bottle of Coke.”
Watching the two of them walk away, Ning Chu turned her head, rolled her eyes at Wen Yang, and headed toward the public toilet not far away.
Wen Yang followed closely behind, asking, “Is your stomach still hurting today?”
“Not too bad…”
“How often do you need to change?”
“How should I know?”
Ning Chu glanced back at him, annoyed. “Why are you always following me?”
“Well, what if a girl comes to hit on me when you’re gone?”
So, you’re hitting on me instead?
Before, Wen Yang had concealed his feelings, careful not to show too much since she was a girl. But now that he knew she was a girl, it was hard for him to hide his feelings!
Ning Chu pressed her lips together, feeling uneasy about being liked by a guy.
But with Wen Yang’s protagonist aura around, at least she didn’t have to worry about any sudden incidents in the public restroom.
After all, restrooms were also a high-frequency scene in small royal texts.
Arriving at the public restroom near the cafeteria, Ning Chu felt for the sanitary napkin in her pocket and walked straight into the men’s room.
“Wait…”
“What?”
Ning Chu casually replied, but when she looked up, she saw a student staring at her with wide eyes.
“……”
“She’s a girl.” She explained nonchalantly as she dove into a stall.
Wen Yang let out a heavy sigh.
Why did it feel like Ning Chu had been in the boys’ dorm long enough that her gender perception was starting to go awry?
What girl would casually change a sanitary napkin in the men’s room?
“Hey, dude, she’s a girl?” the student asked, bewildered.
Wen Yang nodded. “Yeah.”
“She’s prettier than most girls…”
Not very skilled at changing her sanitary napkin and looking distinctly nervous, Ning Chu was too intimidated to even touch her new accessories… After becoming a girl yesterday, she hadn’t even dared to shower, afraid to see her completely exposed new body.
She had read gender-bender doujins before, where the girly characters could easily flaunt their new parts.
But now, after becoming a girl, her mind just couldn’t get into it.
She only felt continuous bleeding, which was gross.
Throwing the sanitary napkin in the trash, Ning Chu was about to leave when she suddenly realized a problem.
What if the next guy coming in here finds the sanitary napkin…?
Thinking of that scene, her face turned crimson.
How careless, she should’ve gone to the girls’ room. But then she worried about being seen by classmates, which would expose her gender. Even if her gender wasn’t exposed, being mistaken for a perv sneaking into the girls’ restroom just because of her feminine looks didn’t seem like a good outcome either.
With a flushed face, she tore off a big chunk of tissue paper and tossed it in the trash to cover the sanitary napkin. Finally, she sighed in relief and opened the stall door but saw Wen Yang was using the restroom.
Curiosity got the better of her once again.
She peeked, tiptoeing to sneak a glance at Wen Yang.
“Hm?” Wen Yang heard a little sound, turned, and caught Ning Chu’s curious yet fearful expression.
He froze for a moment, hastily pulling up his pants. “Could you be more discreet?!”
“…….”
Ning Chu didn’t reply, quickly walking out of the restroom.
She confirmed again; even though she was a female side character, maybe with a unique talent, with Wen Yang’s capital, things were bound to go wrong, right?!
“Hey, why does it feel like I did something wrong just because you were peeking at me?”
“Pervert!”
“???”
Almost on the dot, Ning Chu and Wen Yang walked into the classroom.
“Ning Chu~”
As soon as they stepped into the classroom, Yan Xinya rushed over, throwing herself onto Ning Chu, her big fluffy tail swishing furiously. With that expression, she looked like an excited golden retriever welcoming its owner home.
Ning Chu noticed the tag on this wolf girl was pretty awkward too.
Looking up at Yan Xinya’s expectant face, she then glanced down at that wagging tail.
Yeah, that’s clearly a dog, not a wolf!
Even though she had become a girl, she had little experience with close contact with other girls and awkwardly tried to shake off Yan Xinya’s arm around her.
“What’s up?”
“Let’s go to class together!”
“???”
Are we that close?
Quickly, Yan Xinya leaned in again, playfully sniffing Ning Chu’s face.
Ning Chu’s face reddened immediately. The intimate contact didn’t spark any fantasies; instead, she took two awkward steps back. Though she often mocked Wen Yang for being a timid virgin, she wasn’t that different herself.
Fortunately, Wen Yang stepped in between them.
“Knock it off; it’s time for class.”
Seizing the opportunity, Ning Chu hurriedly distanced herself from Yan Xinya, scanned the classroom, found her roommate sitting in their designated spot, and sat next to Zhang Shaoqing.
“Is that wolf girl into you?” Zhang Shaoqing asked with a cheeky smile. “She seems really fond of you. Why not go for it?”
“And she’s pretty cute too! But together with you, it looks kind of… ya know.”
Ning Chu shot him a disdainful look. “Not interested.”
Before she turned into a girl, she’d already lost interest in girls. Back then, mainly due to that lack of ‘equipment,’ her mind was always preoccupied with all sorts of nonsense. And now, she didn’t even have that.
Wen Yang then sat down next to Ning Chu, but soon, Yan Xinya plopped down next to them too, flashing a sweet smile at Ning Chu over Wen Yang.
Rarely, with a female around Wen Yang, Ning Chu didn’t speak up to stop it.
But she looked worriedly at Wen Yang. This guy clearly wasn’t hiding his feelings anymore.
He showed no reservations about being jealous whether she was with guys or girls, and that possessiveness seemed to indicate he was already thinking about how to make her his girlfriend.
She shivered—thinking about those dimensions…
She surely had to make a run for it. But the moment she left Wen Yang, she would start feeling flustered and anxious. Even though there weren’t any strange monsters lurking around, with her current mindset, she couldn’t help but worry about everything and might just end up giving herself some psychological problem eventually.
Ning Chu slumped on the desk, gazing at the teacher who had just arrived to take attendance.
“Ning Chu~ Ning Chu~” Though Yan Xinya was the vice class leader, she was anything but quiet during class. She leaned over, resting her chin on Wen Yang’s desk, lightly poking Ning Chu’s arm. “Are you not wearing a bra?”
Though she whispered, Wen Yang heard her perfectly clear from the middle.
Ning Chu shot the wolf girl a glare. “What do you mean a guy wears a bra?”
“Is that a true void, then?”
“……”
“So awkward oh~”
