Volume 1 Chapter 99: So Daring
“I’m going to grab some breakfast.”
As the group of four passed by the cafeteria, Ning Chu stopped and glanced at the time. “You guys head to class first.”
Wen Yang nodded. “Yeah, you two go ahead.”
“Bring me a Coke, by the way.”
Watching the two walk away, Ning Chu rolled her eyes at Wen Yang and started heading toward the public restroom nearby.
Wen Yang followed closely behind and asked, “Does your stomach still hurt today?”
“It’s alright…”
“How often do you have to change it?”
“How would I know?”
Ning Chu shot a glare over her shoulder. “Why are you following me?”
“What if some girl tries to hit on me after you leave?”
So, you’re just hitting on me instead?
Before, Wen Yang had been more discreet, and even though he liked Ning Chu, he had been careful not to show it too much because of her supposed gender. But now that he knew she was actually a girl, he couldn’t hide his feelings any longer!
Ning Chu pressed her lips together, feeling uncomfortable being liked by a man.
But at least with Wen Yang’s protagonist aura, she didn’t have to worry about anything strange happening in the public restroom.
After all, restrooms were a high-incident area in those raunchy doujinshi stories.
Standing in front of the public restroom near the cafeteria, Ning Chu patted the sanitary pad in her pocket and walked straight into the men’s restroom.
“Wait, what…”
“What, what?”
Ning Chu replied absentmindedly and looked up, only to find a student staring at her, mouth agape.
“Uh…”
“I’m a guy,” she explained as naturally as possible before heading into a stall.
Wen Yang let out a heavy sigh.
It seemed that Ning Chu had spent so much time in the boys’ dorm that her understanding of gender roles was becoming warped. What girl would just casually change a sanitary pad in the men’s restroom?
“Uh, hey bro, that student…. He’s a boy?” The student was still staring at Wen Yang in confusion.
Wen Yang nodded. “Yeah.”
“Damn… He’s prettier than a girl…”
<+>
Ning Chu was still not very skilled at changing her pad, and she always seemed nervous about handling her new equipment.
Since turning into a girl yesterday, she hadn’t even dared to shower, fearing the sight of her fully transformed, naked body.
In those gender-swap stories she used to read, the girls always played around with their new parts without hesitation, sometimes even letting their friends have some fun first.
But after becoming a girl herself, Ning Chu had no such thoughts.
She just felt gross and uncomfortable from the constant bleeding.
As she tossed the used pad into the trash, Ning Chu realized a problem.
What if the next guy who came in here saw the pad?
The thought made her face flush bright red.
Damn it! She’s being too careless!
She should’ve gone to the women’s restroom, but she was worried about being seen by her classmates, which could expose her gender.
And even if it didn’t, people might think she was some pervert sneaking into the women’s restroom, which wasn’t a great outcome either.
Blushing, she pulled down a large amount of toilet paper, tossed it into the trash, and covered the pad with it before letting out a sigh of relief.
As she opened the stall door to leave, she saw Wen Yang still using the restroom.
Curiosity got the better of her once again.
She stood on her tiptoes, peeking curiously under the stall to get a glimpse.
“Hm?” Wen Yang heard something and turned his head, catching sight of Ning Chu’s curious yet cautious expression.
He froze for a moment, then hurriedly pulled up his pants. “Can you have a little decency?!”
“…..”
Ning Chu didn’t respond, quickly heading out of the restroom.
Once again, she was certain. Even if she was a side character, even if her body is now enhanced with porn logic, if she were to do it with Wen Yang… She would definitely break!
“Hey, why does it feel like I’m the one doing something wrong when you peek at me?”
“Pervert!”
“???”
<+>
Just barely making it in time, Ning Chu and Wen Yang entered the classroom.
“Ning Chu~”
As soon as she walked in, Yan Xinya came running up to her, calling her name softly.
She threw herself onto Ning Chu, her large tail wagging quickly behind her. With that expression, she looked like a golden retriever welcoming its owner home.
Ning Chu noticed that Yan Xinya’s tag as the wolf-girl also had a somewhat sultry vibe.
Looking up at her eager face, Ning Chu glanced down at her wagging tail.
Yeah, that’s definitely a dog, not a wolf.
Even though she had turned into a girl, Ning Chu wasn’t used to close contact with other girls. She awkwardly peeled Yan Xinya’s hands off her arm.
“What’s up?”
“Let’s go to class together!”
“???”
Are we even that close?
Yan Xinya quickly latched onto her again, leaning in close to Ning Chu’s face and giving her a sniff.
Ning Chu’s face flushed.
The intimate contact didn’t spark any romantic feelings in her, but instead made her flustered and uncomfortable.
She backed away a couple of steps.
Although she always teased Wen Yang for being shy and inexperienced, she wasn’t much different.
Thankfully, Wen Yang stepped between them, creating some distance.
“Alright, enough. It’s time for class.”
Seizing the opportunity, Ning Chu quickly moved away from Yan Xinya, scanning the classroom and finding her seat next to Zhang Shaoqing.
“Does that wolf-girl like you?” Zhang Shaoqing grinned as he leaned in. “Seems like she’s into you. Aren’t you going to make a move?”
“She’s pretty cute, but standing next to you, it kind of looks like yuri.”
Ning Chu shot him a disdainful look. “Not interested.”
Even before she turned into a girl, she had lost interest in girls. Back then, her manhood had no energy, and her mind was full of chaotic thoughts.
Now, she didn’t even have her manhood anymore.
Wen Yang sat down next to her just then, and not long after, Yan Xinya plopped down as well, giving Ning Chu a sweet smile across Wen Yang.
For once, Ning Chu didn’t speak up to stop a girl from being near Wen Yang.
But she did glance worriedly at him. It seemed like he had completely stopped hiding his feelings.
He no longer masked his affection for her, showing a jealous expression whether she interacted with men or women.
This possessiveness… was he already thinking about how to make her his girlfriend?
She shivered. With that size…
Yeah, it’s definitely time to run!
But whenever she wasn’t around Wen Yang, she was overwhelmed with anxiety.
Even though there weren’t any tentacle monsters or weird perverts in the real world, with her state of mind, she’d probably end up with some kind of psychological disorder sooner or later.
Feeling drained, Ning Chu slumped over her desk and stared at the teacher who had just arrived to take attendance.
“Ning Chu~ Ning Chu~” Despite being the vice class monitor, Yan Xinya couldn’t sit still during class. She leaned over Wen Yang’s desk, poking Ning Chu’s arm lightly. “Are you not wearing a bra?”
Though her voice was quiet, Wen Yang, sitting between them, heard it loud and clear.
Ning Chu glared at the wolf-girl. “I’m a guy, why would I wear a bra?”
“Then aren’t you basically going commando?”
“…..”
“So daring~”
