Trapped in Paradise

Chapter 416



Chapter 416

Not long after, Wen Yang came back with the package.

Ning Chu hurried to the bathroom to change into the yoga outfit, but when she came out, her expression was awkward and flushed.

This yoga outfit had been purchased under Lily’s encouragement. The material was thin and form-fitting, stretched tightly from her chest to her waist, down to her hips and thighs, outlining every curve of her body.

Her narrow waist, perky hips, and long legs were highlighted with nothing left to imagination, and her already-at-succubus-average bust appeared even more prominent.

The fabric hugged her skin comfortably and lightly, but the problem was—it was meant to be worn outside. It wasn’t like pajamas or underwear you layered beneath other clothes. With nothing covering it, she felt incredibly exposed.

And judging from Wen Yang’s increasingly heated gaze… Yeah, she knew exactly what the situation was.

Feeling his scorching stare almost sizzling on her bare skin, Ning Chu fidgeted in front of the mirror. Her face reddened even deeper.

How did a perfectly normal yoga outfit end up looking so indecent on her?!

The pain of having a great figure~

And with her peach-heart-shaped tail swaying behind her, she looked even more suggestive.Her body still wasn’t fully recovered, and worried Wen Yang might lose control and push her onto the bed, Ning Chu dashed back into the bathroom.

“Wen Yang! Return this for me!”

“I think it looks pretty good for wearing at home.”

“Then we might as well buy actual professional ones—they’re cheaper.”

A short while later, she came out of the room in cozy homewear, her cheeks still tinged pink, grumbling,

“It’s all Lily’s fault. I wanted something loose-fitting, but she egged me on. Kept saying everyone wears this style.”

“When yoga class starts next week, I really want to see if she’ll wear something that tight.”

Knowing Lily’s secretly shy personality, she’d probably dress super modestly.

“Help me return it later.”

Ning Chu tossed the yoga outfit onto the table, then turned to Wen Yang, who was sitting by the bed.

“Did the counselor help reset my password?”

“Yeah, it’s back to the default now.”

“That fast?”

She hadn’t expected the ghost girl to respond so quickly even on a weekend.

Although that ghost had once harbored ill intentions toward Wen Yang, she did seem to be a fairly competent counselor…

But the moment that thought surfaced, Ning Chu remembered the one who had been sent to the sewing machine and immediately smothered any budding goodwill.

Definitely pretending to be harmless to win Wen Yang’s trust! Lowering defenses with a sweet act, then striking hard at the crucial moment!

“Alright, I’ll sign up for classes…”

Ning Chu logged into the school website using her default password.

The university required students to complete three elective courses over four years. Apparently, Wang Jie was planning to take all three in a single semester so he could have free time later to play.

But Ning Chu preferred taking things steadily—one course per semester was plenty.

“What did you pick?” she asked.

“Basketball and boxing.”

“Boxing?”

She froze, then turned back to Wen Yang in confusion.

“Why are you learning that?”

“In case someone tries to steal you away one day—I can knock him flat with one punch.” Wen Yang joked as he lightly punched the air.

“Oh, please. With your build, you could knock someone dead without learning anything…”

Ning Chu was a little tempted herself—boxing seemed useful for self-defense.

But after thinking it through, with her small frame, boxing might not do much for her. It would be better to train running. In an emergency, running fast and screaming loudly was more effective than anything.

After selecting her course, Ning Chu settled down and focused on writing.

While writing, she disliked being interrupted, so she barely spoke to Wen Yang all afternoon.

Even so, after the whole afternoon, she had only managed to finish two chapters.

Every few hundred words, she couldn’t help watching a video, browsing forums, or playing a game…

“I’m going back out to run my stall.”

“Can I come?” Ning Chu immediately raised her hand high. “I’ve been cooped up at home all day, I’m suffocating!”

“Alright. Is your body completely healed yet?”

Wen Yang had already changed into his outdoor clothes. Standing by the door putting on his shoes, he asked.

“Should be? At least walking doesn’t feel weird anymore.”

Ning Chu jumped up excitedly, grabbed her clothes, and dashed into the bathroom. In just a moment, she was fully dressed and standing in front of Wen Yang again.

It was only a short trip outside, so she didn’t bother fixing herself up—just brushed her hair a bit and put on some sunscreen.

Even though it was already getting dark, sunscreen was non-negotiable.

Wen Yang reached out and pulled a knitted hat over her head, then handed her a scarf and gloves.

“Don’t catch a cold. It’s chilly out on the street.”

“Okay! How about we set up the stall at the campus gate? Let’s drag Shaoqing over too—no leaving unless he buys at least a hundred yuan worth.”

“Shaoqing isn’t around this weekend. He went out with Qian Qian.”

“He did?!”

Ning Chu froze for a moment before realizing Qian Qian seemed to have completely forgotten the instructions she gave her earlier.

They had agreed to keep Zhang Shaoqing hanging, let him get anxious first, right?

Once that guy figured things out later, he’d probably start acting shameless again, muttering something like, “I only like women who don’t like me.”

She pulled out her phone, hesitated, and still sent Qian Qian a message:

“What’s going on? Are you two on a date this weekend?”

A moment later, Qian Qian replied:

“Mm.”

Ning Chu was holding her phone with both hands as she typed. Wen Yang glanced at her pale neck. He had only taken two steps outside before helplessly turning back to wrap the scarf around the little succubus’ neck.

Wen Yang looked her up and down, then loosened the knitted hat a bit to better hide her horns.

“Gloves.”

“They make it hard to use my phone. I’ll pass.”

Ning Chu muttered while looking down, occasionally glancing up at Wen Yang’s heels as she followed him out.

On her phone, Qian Qian finally explained:

“I rejected him too, like you said. Made him figure out a way to ‘force’ me to agree.”

“Oh oh~ And what’s his attitude now?”

“After I did what you said, he got really aggressive!”

“???”

“Very gentle though~”

Seeing the withdrawn message, Ning Chu almost thought she was hallucinating.

Qian Qian looked like such a quiet, reserved girl, yet she apparently had a bit of an M-side to her…

She suspected Zhang Shaoqing had already lost his virginity, but she wasn’t shameless enough to ask Qian Qian for details.

She also suspected that the “Qian Qian Domestication Diary” plotline had already started in reality.

Except that the coercion-and-threat scenario in the story had now become mutual affection—turned into mutually enjoyed play.

From the looks of it, both of them were enjoying it quite a bit.

Playing pretty wild, huh~ Even this succubus is impressed!

Ning Chu stopped walking for a moment.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, looking up.

Wen Yang turned back, leaning in curiously.

“What’s going on? Qian Qian… the teacher—that’s the cat girl from your story, right?”

“Mm…” Mentioning her spicy little novella, Ning Chu didn’t dare meet Wen Yang’s eyes.

“Hard to imagine. They’re totally different… In your story they were the villain and the victim, yet now they’re a pair.”

“Well, Shaoqing isn’t actually that villain anyway~”
