Trapped in Paradise (In a Hentai World, as a Trap)-Chapter 389
“You have
no idea
how gorgeous Ning Chu looks now!”
“???”
Early morning in the campus cafeteria, Zhang Shaoqing was grinning ear to ear as he shared gossip with Wang Jie.
“Remember when I went to hang out with Wen Yang? It’s only been half a month since I last saw Ning Chu, and bro—Wen Yang’s
completely devoured her
.”
“Dude, the battle was
epic
! I waited outside for five hours! Almost froze to death, but that’s brotherhood right there—no matter how cold, I’d never interrupt for the sake of a friend’s happiness!”
“Five hours?” Wang Jie looked up in disbelief. “You’re exaggerating, right?”
“Take a guess.” Zhang Shaoqing smirked. “But seriously—last year she looked like a middle-schooler. Now? That chest, that waist, that ass~ she’s fully ripened, man!”
Wang Jie scratched his head awkwardly. “If she heard you say that, she’d definitely be pissed.”
“She’s not here, is she?” Zhang Shaoqing slung an arm around his shoulder. “Anyway, forget her. Let’s talk about
you
. Why do you still look half-dead? You didn’t hit the gym at all during the break? With your girlfriend being a succubus incarnate, you’re gonna be reduced to dried husk if you keep this up.”
“Didn’t feel like moving…”
“Then you deserve to get drained dry! Hey—how long do you even last with her?”
“Uh…”
Before Wang Jie could answer, the chatter in the cafeteria suddenly quieted. Zhang Shaoqing instinctively looked toward the entrance—
—and saw a striking couple walk in.
The girl stood at barely one-sixty, her thick down jacket doing little to hide her curvy figure. Her rosy cheeks still carried a hint of girlish youth, but there was an unmistakable mature allure there too—a blend of innocence and temptation that made people want to bully her just a little.
Beside her, the man was nearly one-ninety. The thirty-centimeter height difference made her seem small and delicate, almost doll-like next to him.
Zhang Shaoqing, being very much a straight guy, barely spared Wen Yang a glance before leaning in toward Wang Jie and whispering, “See that? Big change, right? Looks like our class flower might be dethroned soon.”
“Y-yeah… she’s getting prettier and prettier,” Wang Jie stammered, his eyes flickering nervously as he avoided looking directly at Ning Chu.
It had only been a month, yet his former dormmate had somehow become almost
too
dazzling to look at. He was afraid that if he stared too long, his mind might wander somewhere indecent.
He wouldn’t care if it were some random pretty girl—but when it was someone he’d lived and eaten with for months, it made him feel… guilty.
“What the hell are you blushing for? Have some shame! Don’t tell me you’ve actually caught feelings for her?”
Wang Jie rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly, giving a dry laugh. “She
is
really pretty though…”
“Oh please.” Zhang Shaoqing snorted. “You’ve lived with her long enough. You
know
what she’s like.”
“What am I like?”
A sharp voice cut in just as Ning Chu approached their table, having caught his last sentence perfectly. She slammed her palm down. “I practically
ran this dorm
while you clowns slacked off!”
“Yeah, yeah~ sure thing,” Zhang Shaoqing said lazily, rolling his eyes. “Still acting like you’re our dad?”
“Fine, then call me
mom
.”
Without hesitation, he said, “Mom~.”
…Wait, why didn’t that feel satisfying at all?
In fact, Ning Chu felt
she’d
been the one taken advantage of here.
With a huff, she kicked the leg of his chair before plopping down opposite them. “Wen Yang, just grab whatever for breakfast—I already transferred the money.”
“Got it.”
Since transferring money every day was a hassle, Ning Chu had set their payment app to automatically send sixty yuan daily for meals—an even thirty apiece.
From her small shoulder bag, she pulled out a lip balm, dabbed a thin coat onto her lips, pressed them together, and finally looked up at the two across from her.
Zhang Shaoqing still wore that same cheeky grin as always. She’d seen him over the break, and clearly, ten days hadn’t been enough time for him to grow up even a little.
Even though Wang Jie was clearly no longer a virgin, he still lowered his head shyly, sipping his porridge with his eyes darting around nervously—he didn’t even dare to look at her.
Furthermore, the guy looked thinner than before, his cheeks slightly sunken. It wasn’t hard to imagine what he must’ve gone through during the winter break.
Seeing Wang Jie like that, Ning Chu sighed helplessly in her heart.
She turned to Zhang Shaoqing. “So, what’s going on between you and Qian Qian now?”
That immediately piqued Wang Jie’s interest—he perked up his ears to listen.
At the mention of her name, Zhang Shaoqing’s expression drooped. “What do you think…? Guess it’s true what they say—what you can’t have always seems the best.”
“Explain.”
He looked bitter, just about to speak, when his gaze suddenly froze—he was staring straight at something behind Ning Chu. Then, in a flash, he ducked his head, got up, and hurried toward the cafeteria exit. “Got something to do!”
Ning Chu looked confused—but soon enough, she heard a joyful voice calling from behind.
“Shaoqing!”
She turned around and saw Qian Qian entering the cafeteria, running up to catch Zhang Shaoqing.
Zhang Shaoqing froze, and when he finally looked up again, his face showed a mix of awkward surprise. “Qian Qian? What are you doing here?”
“I’ve got class first period!”
Qian Qian grabbed his arm and smiled sweetly. “Wanna have breakfast together?”
“I already ate… You’re a teacher, remember? Don’t do this at school…”
“Oh, fine~ Then I’ll just say you’re my little brother!”
“……”
At that moment, Wen Yang returned with two breakfasts in hand. His eyes followed Zhang Shaoqing for a moment before he sat down next to Ning Chu. “What’s going on there?”
“You can tell with one look, can’t you?” Ning Chu’s eyes gleamed with amusement. “Shaoqing’s asking for it—finally someone can put him in his place!”
“Hm?”
“He went out of his way to break up Qian Qian and her ex, then made her fall for him. And now he says
what you can’t have is the best
? He’s got it coming. He’s going to be miserable later.”
In her light novel, the
villain
had threatened and manipulated Qian Qian—but in reality, Zhang Shaoqing feared her like a tiger, running for his life whenever she came near.
From now on, whether he wanted to hit the bar to watch cat girls pole-dance or book a hostess at a karaoke lounge, there’d be a woman keeping him on a leash.
Serves him right.
Wang Jie, who hadn’t followed any of that, looked up blankly. “Huh? I didn’t understand a single word of that.”
“You don’t have to. You should just focus on working out and keeping your girlfriend satisfied.”
“???”
His face flushed scarlet at that, and he muttered under his breath, “Didn’t Ning Chu used to blush just from watching a steamy scene…? Since when did she start saying such thing so shamelessly?”
“It’s almost class time,” Wen Yang reminded her.
“Oh!” Ning Chu quickly stuffed the meat bun into her mouth—her cheeks puffed up like a hamster’s.
“Eat slowly, don’t choke.”
No sooner had he said that than she widened her eyes in alarm. “Mmph!”
Wen Yang sighed and handed her the soy milk. “Told you to slow down.”
She took a big gulp and finally swallowed, letting out a long breath before slumping back in her chair. “Ugh, thought I was gonna die~”
“Here’s a tissue.”
“Wait, I’m checking the class schedule… Looks like we’ve got fewer classes this semester~”
Wen Yang pulled out a tissue, about to hand it over—only to see her glancing down at her phone, tilting her face slightly in his direction.
He immediately understood. Holding the tissue, he leaned in and gently wiped the oil from the corner of her lips.
“People are watching, aren’t you embarrassed?”
“It’s fine! Let those jealous girls see how amazing my boyfriend is—let them wallow in envy!”
