Trapped In Paradise
Volume 2 Chapter 207 / Chapter 487: News from Wang Jie
Early in the morning, noisy chatter could already be heard from outside the guest room.
Still in light sleep, Ning Chu was immediately startled awake. She opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, feeling a moment of confusion—but then she sensed the arm wrapped around her waist.
Turning her head, she saw Wen Yang lying on his side facing her. One of his arms was tucked under her head as a pillow, while the other held her tightly around the waist.
His eyes were closed, his handsome yet masculine face calm and peaceful, with a faint smile at the corners of his lips, as if he were having a pleasant dream.
As usual, Ning Chu carefully lifted the arm around her waist, gently placing it back onto the bed. She slowly sat up, then stared blankly at his handsome face.
Even though she had seen it countless times, it still made her heart race every single time~
She had never been interested in men before.
Pressing a hand to her chest, she felt her heart pounding, her cheeks already flushing red.
It must be because of her succubus nature! She used to be a perfectly straight guy, only interested in pretty girls. Her feed used to be full of attractive women—but now, maybe because she could "sense" Wen Yang's presence, it triggered her succubus "hunting" instincts.
Muttering excuses to herself, Ning Chu couldn't resist leaning down and lightly brushing her lips against the tip of Wen Yang's nose.
She lifted her head, about to get out of bed, but her gaze suddenly froze on the prominent outline beneath the blanket.
She instinctively licked her lips, a sudden urge flashing through her mind—but she quickly shook her head, suppressing the thought.
This was Lily's house, after all…
What if she accidentally dirtied the bedding—or worse, attracted the attention of the other succubus?
She had no intention of sharing.
Getting out of bed, she threw on a coat over her thin nightdress and quietly slipped out of the guest room.
Yawning, she cheerfully swayed her heart-shaped tail as she walked down the hallway into the living room, where she immediately spotted Yan Xinya energetically running on the treadmill.
No wonder it was so noisy…
"You're up?"
Yan Xinya's sharp wolf ears picked up her footsteps. While running, she turned her head and asked, "Why aren't you wearing pants?"
"My coat is long enough."
Ning Chu lifted the hem of her coat, revealing the short nightdress underneath, and complained, "Why does Lily always give me such short sleepwear?"
"She's totally doing it on purpose! Just to see you get embarrassed!"
"You're not much better…"
Maybe she would've been embarrassed before, but now Ning Chu didn't really care anymore.
After everything she'd been through, she could even wear a bikini now—what was a short nightdress in comparison? Even if it was so short that bending over would reveal everything.
"Are Lily and Xi Xi still asleep?"
"No idea~"
Still yawning, Ning Chu flopped onto the sofa. Yan Xinya stopped her workout and eagerly came over, sniffing around her like she was trying to detect something unusual.
"Looks like your legs are fine today?"
"Mm…"
"As expected of a succubus~"
In that regard, a succubus's recovery ability really was top-tier.
"Why do you look so tired?" the wolf girl asked, seeing her yawn repeatedly. "Didn't sleep well?"
"It was okay…"
She had been completely wasted yesterday, and she hadn't had "breakfast" yet this morning, that's why she felt drained.
Ning Chu leaned back against the sofa tiredly. "You woke me up so early… I could've slept longer."
"Maybe you just sleep lightly? I'm pretty far away~"
"Morning."
As they spoke, Lily came out of her room, also wearing a thin nightdress. Without asking anything, she walked straight to the open kitchen and began preparing breakfast like a dutiful homemaker.
This succubus would definitely make a perfect wife in the future. Whoever married her must've done something incredible in their past life.
Ning Chu, on the other hand, only cooked occasionally on weekends—and every time, it left her completely exhausted. The only thing that made it worthwhile was watching Wen Yang devour the food.
"Lily! What's for breakfast?!"
Yan Xinya leaned over, peeking eagerly into the kitchen with an expectant look.
"Milk and boiled eggs?" Lily opened the nearly empty fridge. "That's all."
Those two items had been bought at the neighborhood store yesterday. The rest was just snacks and drinks.
Ning Chu immediately objected. "I can't eat boiled eggs, they have this weird smell. Makes me nauseous."
When she was little, eggs were part of breakfast every day. At some point, though, she started finding them unpleasant—just the smell alone made her want to gag.
Her older brother Ning Yuan never had that problem.
"Then…" Lily thought for a moment, pulling out a pack of sausages and some dried pork. "Egg crepes with sausage and pork jerky, plus milk."
It sounded a bit odd, but imagining the taste, it didn't seem too bad.
Thankfully, Yan Xinya hadn't finished all the snacks yesterday, or there'd be nothing to eat this morning.
"Let's go with that! Sounds pretty good!" Yan Xinya rested her chin on her hands at the counter, staring eagerly at Lily. "How long will it take? I'm starving."
She had even eaten a late-night snack last night, yet she was already hungry again.
"Are you a pig…"
"Hey, I don't gain weight anyway! Unlike you guys, eating so cautiously and only half full."
Ning Chu turned her head away in mild envy—then noticed Wen Yang had already woken up and was standing outside the guest room, gesturing for her.
"What is it?"
She jogged over, but Wen Yang grabbed her arm, pulled her into the room, and casually shut the door behind them.
"Wait—no! That's not okay! This is Lily's house, don't go too far!"
Startled, she quickly covered her chest and retreated toward the corner like a frightened rabbit, mumbling awkwardly, "If you really want to…"
Wen Yang froze for a moment, scratching his head. "No, I mean—Wang Jie has some good news."
"..."
Ning Chu fell silent. She immediately straightened up and shot him an annoyed glare. "Spit it out."
"His girlfriend agreed. They're going to the hospital tomorrow."
"That's it… I thought he paid you back already."
Her brief embarrassment faded, replaced by disappointment.
The outcome wasn't surprising—two college freshmen getting into trouble like that, there was no way they'd actually go through with it.
Unless both families knew and pushed them to get married immediately.
Wen Yang shrugged helplessly. "Wang Jie said he'll repay the money as soon as possible."
"Hopefully…"
Ning Chu muttered. Dragging her in here so abruptly over something like this—she had thought he was about to do something else. It gave her a scare.
She glanced at the obvious situation beneath his shorts and reminded him, "You should wait a bit before going out. Don't let them see, it'll be awkward."
"I know." Wen Yang paused, then asked expectantly, "What did you mean earlier—'if you really want to'?"
"Hold it in! Pervert!"
