Chapter 246: Helping Wang Dong Change Clothes
Riiip—
The faint sound of fabric tearing broke the silence.
Wang Dong immediately felt a chill against her upper body.
Ye Chen's hand had slipped along the tear in her T-shirt, and with a gentle pull, the already-torn garment ripped completely along the shoulder seam, sliding easily down to her waist.
Cool air brushed over her now-bare skin, jolting her back to awareness.
"Mmm… Ye Chen! What are you doing?" she gasped, her face flushing crimson as she crossed her arms in front of her chest, glaring at him in embarrassment.
Her sky-blue undergarment was fully exposed, though one shoulder strap had snapped, barely hanging off her pale shoulder.
The fabric itself was ripped in several places from battle, thin edges gaping to reveal glimpses of soft skin beneath.
"It's all torn. You can't wear this. Let me help you change," Ye Chen said with a teasing smile, his hand reaching toward the damaged strap.
Wang Dong bit her lip, cheeks burning even redder as she whispered faintly, "You're so bad…"
Her complaint softened when he gently undid the strap.
The loosened garment lifted lightly away from her body.
Released from its confinement, she shivered slightly, instinctively hugging herself.
Then came the torn leather shorts at her hips—the ones split open along the outer thigh.
Ye Chen's fingers hooked easily into the waistband, pulling down in one swift motion. The tight, black garment slid off effortlessly, pooling around her feet.
Now, all that wrapped her slender frame was a pair of soft, light-blue cotton underpants—already ripped slightly along one edge.
"These are torn too… guess I'll have to change this as well," Ye Chen murmured as though to himself.
Wang Dong's ears turned bright red. She averted her face and scolded in a whisper barely louder than a breath, "It's your fault… you must've done that on purpose…"
But her tone carried more bashfulness than anger, like a spoiled complaint.
"Alright, alright, turn around~" Ye Chen chuckled, gently pinching her flushed cheek.
"Hmph… just help me change, and no touching!"
Wang Dong pouted, then obediently turned around, baring her smooth back and slender waist to him.
Dappled sunlight traced the elegant curves of her body, her skin so fair it almost glowed.
She wrapped her arms around her chest, trembling slightly as she stood still in silence.
Ye Chen crouched down behind her, his fingers catching the edge of her light-blue waistband. Slowly, carefully, he slid the fabric downward.
The soft cloth yielded easily, sliding down her legs until it gathered loosely at her ankles.
Sunlight poured over her bare form—soft shoulders, delicate curves tapering to a slim waist, then downward to her long, smooth legs gleaming like ivory in the light.
Ye Chen's gaze wandered without thought. Instinctively, he leaned forward and kissed the tender skin above her thigh.
He couldn't help himself.
"Ah!"
Wang Dong trembled violently, her body jerking forward as a startled cry escaped her. Her face, neck, and ears turned scarlet.
Turning halfway, she stammered in shock, "Ye Chen—you—you kissed me there?! How could you—!"
He laughed softly, unashamed. "Reflex. Couldn't resist."
"Idiot… If you wanted to kiss me, you could just ask… You don't have to sneak around," Wang Dong mumbled, voice so small she almost didn't hear herself.
"What was that?" Ye Chen teased, leaning closer.
"Nothing! Just hurry up—it's embarrassing!" she squeaked, clamping her thighs together as her heart raced.
"I didn't bring any of your clothes." Ye Chen lifted his palms helplessly.
Wang Dong blinked, then flushed harder. She quickly produced a neatly folded set of clothes and undergarments from her storage device, tossing them in his face.
"Here! Hurry! What if Xiao Xiao comes back and sees!"
"Alright, alright~" Ye Chen chuckled as he caught the bundle, deftly unfolding a matching light-blue bra.
Wang Dong hesitantly raised her arms.
Working with calm precision, Ye Chen slipped the garment on her from behind, clasped the hooks, and adjusted the straps neatly into place.
Next were her replacements—dainty panties of the same matching color.
Ye Chen held them out, and Wang Dong lifted her hips shyly. The soft, warm fabric slid up smoothly, hugging her perfectly.
The elastic band sat snug against her pale skin, leaving a faint, delicate imprint.
Though she wasn't voluptuous, her petite curves were soft to the touch—delicate yet tender.
Finally came the dress—a soft, powder-blue gown that he helped ease down over her shoulders.
The fabric glided over her skin, covering her chest, her waist, and the gentle lines of her hips. The hem brushed down to her calves, flowing and elegant.
Ye Chen moved in front of her, tying a small bow at the back of her slender waist.
The transformation was complete—fresh, clean, and beautiful. The edge of her white knee-high socks peeked just below the fluttering skirt, revealing a subtle glimpse of her smooth thighs.
Wang Dong looked down at herself, relieved to finally be dressed again. But when she met Ye Chen's affectionate gaze, the faint blush on her cheeks flared once more.
"Alright, enough… let's go back. Don't start anything here…"
She quickly looked away, tucking a stray lock of her pink-blue hair behind her ear, avoiding his eyes entirely.
Ye Chen smiled faintly. "Start anything? I wasn't going to. Just sit with me a while—let me help you recover your soul power."
He sat on the grass and opened his arms in invitation.
"Hmph… fine."
Wang Dong huffed softly, then stepped over and nestled into his embrace obediently, her long legs curling around his waist.
"By the way," Ye Chen asked with a grin, "how are you going to explain this when you go home?"
Her family had prepared a "divine-granted" soul ring for her—courtesy of Tang San—and she wasn't actually supposed to hunt spirit beasts for it.
If she reached rank 40 so soon, it might catch their suspicion… which meant they'd probably come looking for answers—from him.
