Ning Chu seriously wondered if Wen Yang might have some kind of problem.
His male thing was abnormally large, and it took him forever to just 'let it out'—maybe he should visit a hospital or consider circumcision to increase his sensitivity.
But then again, he was the male lead of a Hentai Doujin… Thinking about it that way, it actually made sense.
Afterall, what kind of hentai protagonist would he be if he cum in just a few minutes of stroking?
Leaning idly against the sink, she turned her head and looked at herself in the mirror.
Perhaps drawn by the peculiar scent lingering in the air, her face always seemed to carry a faint blush. The reddish tint on the corners of her eyes was even more prominent, enhancing the allure of her peach blossom-shaped eyes, which now looked utterly enchanting.
Her youthful features softened the seductive charm somewhat, giving her a strong sense of gap moe—an irresistible contrast of innocence and allure.
There was no trace of masculinity to be seen, not even a hint of a man's demeanor. Instead, what reflected in the mirror was a shy and delicate young girl.
Ning Chu touched her own face and, staring at her reflection, quipped, "If it were me, I wouldn't be able to lay a finger on this face either."
After all, she looked under sixteen—probably a minimum of three years behind bars.
She lingered outside a little longer, but a strange uneasiness began to creep in, making her feel impatient.
The surrounding area was silent—no footsteps, no sign of Wen Yang. It made her feel like she was all alone again.
She felt a bit flustered and instinctively called out, "Wen Yang?"
"I'm here."
"Are you done?"
"…"
Ning Chu pursed her lips, peering into the restroom, and asked again, "Are you done yet? I'm hungry and want to go to the cafeteria."
"Not yet…"
His awkward tone was obvious.
She frowned and urged, "Hurry up, it's been half an hour already."
"Well… I can't help it either."
"What kind of 'can't help it' is that?" Ning Chu paced around the restroom and threatened, "If you don't hurry up, I'm leaving without you."
The longer she stayed near the restroom, the hotter her body felt from the lingering sweet scent. She had no choice but to leave again and wait in the hallway, forcing herself to be patient.
After just a few more minutes, Wen Yang finally staggered out of the restroom.
Ning Chu glanced at his lower body, frowned, and stepped back in disgust.
"I couldn't help it…" Wen Yang smiled sheepishly. "Maybe I was too nervous."
After all, having the girl he liked waiting just outside while he dealt with this… The situation was awkward, to say the least.
"Well, I'm not helping you walk then. Be careful on your own." Ning Chu trotted a few steps away, adding, "Don't tell anyone you know me. Everyone's probably going to stare at you while you walk, and I can't afford to lose face."
"Uh…"
After thinking for a moment, she took off her jacket and handed it to Wen Yang. "Tie this around your waist to cover it up."
Without her jacket, her chest—already prominent—was now fully visible, leaving Ning Chu feeling particularly insecure. She crossed her arms over her chest and instinctively hunched her shoulders a little.
Previously, during hot weather, she would always use a textbook for some level of coverage in class.
"Let's head back to the dorm."
"Weren't you hungry?"
"I'll order takeout."
Ning Chu walked ahead, frequently looking back to check on Wen Yang.
With his sprained ankle, he really shouldn't be putting much weight on it. Technically, she ought to help support him to prevent further injury to his foot, but that intoxicating scent was too much for her to handle.
"Yo~ Why were you in there so long?"
As they stepped out of the teaching building, a young she-wolf appeared out of nowhere.
"I couldn't find you earlier." Ning Chu rolled her eyes. "What are you doing here now?"
"Bringing good news!"
"Hmm?"
Yan Xinya pulled out her phone, opened the school forum, and smiled like a doting aunt. "Look! The whole school knows you've claimed Wen Yang!"
"..."
Ning Chu sighed helplessly.
Sure enough, whether Wen Yang excelled by taking a top-three spot or embarrassed himself by falling flat on his face, nothing could stop him from becoming famous across campus.
They had agreed he'd hold back during the competition, just to put on a show. Instead, he had completely flopped and dragged her into the mess as well.
"Someone even took pictures! Look at your expression in the photo—were you about to cry back then?"
"There are people in the comments debating whether you're a boy or a girl. A few are offering blessings, but others think you're unworthy… Some are even calling for a school investigation, claiming you're a girl sneaking into the boys' dormitory."
"Now you've offended every girl on campus!"
Ning Chu's mouth twitched. "Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"
Yan Xinya grinned and nodded. "Of course! Not everyone is a love-struck fool."
No, more accurately, not everyone was a supporting female character in a Hentai story.
Except for those plot-assigned female rivals, most normal girls would at best become Wen Yang's admirers. They might sigh over his looks but wouldn't boldly try to snatch him away.
Snatch him away…
On second thought, being mistaken for Wen Yang's girlfriend wasn't entirely a bad thing—it meant his only troublemakers would be those plot-driven rivals.
Ning Chu leaned her head against Yan Xinya's shoulder in despair. "If I make a post clarifying things, do you think anyone will believe me?"
"Nope!"
Yan Xinya sniffed the air, her nose twitching, then turned to glance at Wen Yang, who was hobbling along with a jacket tied around his waist.
She immediately smirked teasingly. "Did you two just do something naughty?"
"No!"
"You're so bold~"
"We really didn't!" Ning Chu's face turned bright red in frustration.
Yan Xinya laughed and looked away. "Relax~ I didn't smell anything on you. Just kidding."
"..."
Please, spare me these kinds of jokes…
It took them nearly half an hour to help Wen Yang, with his injured foot, back to the dorm building.
"I'll head back now and see if Lily's awake."
"Okay."
"Bye-bye~"
Ning Chu finally turned her attention back to Wen Yang's unsteady form. Moving closer, she lifted his arm onto her shoulder. "Let's go. Hold on when we get to the stairs."
Even after the long walk, she could still faintly catch that sweet scent. It was obvious Wen Yang's head was full of inappropriate thoughts.
Leaving things unfinished must have been quite uncomfortable…
Having been a man before, Ning Chu could somewhat empathize with Wen Yang's predicament.
When they reached the dorm room door, she was already breathing heavily. She hurried to unlock the door, only to find it locked from the inside.
"The door's locked… Didn't Shaoqing and the others sneak back earlier?"
Now it was just the two of them, alone.
Fortunately, Wen Yang's injured foot meant he couldn't pull anything. If he tried, she could still outrun him.
"I'll message them in a bit. I have a key in my pocket," Wen Yang said, balancing on one foot and bracing himself against the wall.
"Alright."
Eager to get away from him before her growing restlessness spiraled out of control, Ning Chu reached into his pocket. But as soon as her hand slipped in, the heat made her instantly pull back.
"You… better get it yourself."
She quickly darted a few steps away.
Moments later, Wen Yang unlocked the door and immediately disappeared into the bathroom.
