Chapter 54: Late Night Conversations
At 10 PM, Ning Chu lay in her bed, tightening the shirt she was wearing around herself.
She couldn't sleep...
Unlike the noisy boys' dorm, the girls' dorm was relatively quiet. After showering, most of the girls either watched dramas or played games, quietly minding their own business.
In theory, this peaceful environment should have helped Ning Chu fall asleep quickly. However, as the lights went out and the room was engulfed in darkness, an inexplicable sense of unease began to surface within her.
A strange dorm, an unfamiliar bed, and no sight of Wen Yang anywhere in her view. Even though she was clutching his shirt and breathing in his scent, it wasn’t providing her with much comfort.

The bed frame gently trembled as Lily climbed into bed.
This girl, who always wore conservative long dresses during the day, was now dressed in a skimpy camisole nightgown that barely covered her.
"Goodnight."
"Mm, goodnight."
Lily lay down beside Ning Chu, their heads close together. In the quiet dorm, Ning Chu could almost hear Lily's breathing.
Gradually, all the laptops in the room were closed, and the dorm fell into complete darkness as the other two roommates also climbed into bed.
Ning Chu lay with her eyes wide open, staring into the pitch black around her. The sense of fear gnawing at her grew stronger.
What if there was a pervert lurking outside the balcony?
Did something just move near the door?
Was that a ghostly figure in the corner?
She was so jittery that she quickly scanned the dorm before forcing herself to stop looking around, afraid that her imagination would spiral out of control and make it even harder to sleep.
It was like when she was a kid and had just watched a particularly scary ghost movie—suddenly, every corner of the room seemed to hide something creepy, and even going to the bathroom felt like a nightmare.
No worries, Wen Yang’s protagonist aura will protect me!
Clutching Wen Yang’s shirt tightly, Ning Chu tried to calm herself down.
“Hey, Ning Chu.”
“Ah?!” Ning Chu flinched in surprise.
Lily rolled over and lay on her side, facing Ning Chu. “Have you and Wen Yang done it yet?”
“D-done what...?” Ning Chu suddenly didn't know how to answer that.
"They’re not even boyfriend and girlfriend yet~" Yan Xinya chimed in, adding to the conversation. “Didn’t Wen Yang confess before? Ning Chu turned him down.”
“I bet they haven’t even kissed yet. Otherwise, Ning Chu wouldn’t be so stiff about it.”
We have kissed... though I wasn’t exactly in my right mind at the time.
Ning Chu didn’t expect the dorm’s late-night conversation to suddenly focus on her, and her initial unease slowly transformed into overwhelming embarrassment.
Lily couldn’t believe it. “Huh? Then why is Ning Chu always sticking so close to Wen Yang? If she doesn’t want him, she should just let him go!”
“Turning him down doesn’t mean she doesn’t like him, right, Ning Chu?” Yan Xinya teased.
“...”
“Then why reject him?” Lily grumbled. “If Wen Yang confessed to me, I’d say yes in a heartbeat.”
“He’s too big.”
The sudden comment caused the entire dorm to fall silent.
After Lily dropped the bombshell, the conversation's speed suddenly accelerated in a wild direction.
“What?! Too big? You mean he scared Ning Chu off?”
“Well, he is pretty big...”
“You’ve seen it?”
“You could tell from how his pants bulged!”
Ning Chu’s embarrassment surged, her mind overwhelmed as she curled into herself, stuffing her ears with her blanket, her face burning red.
Though the boys’ dorm probably had similarly inappropriate conversations, at least she wasn’t the topic there!
Can you all please stop talking about how big Wen Yang is?!
And Lily! She’s so repressed—quiet most of the time, but when she speaks, it’s always something shocking.
I’m still just a kid, okay?!
Suddenly, Ning Chu heard an unusual, somewhat labored breathing sound.
She froze, turning over and looking at Lily, who was lying head to head with her.
Is this...
Watching Lily curl into a ball and bury herself deeper into the blankets, Ning Chu began to understand.
She’s in heat, isn’t she?
Yan Xinya and Lily, both with their sharp noses, immediately picked up on the change in the air, glancing over at Lily’s bed with knowing looks.
“Want me to grab your toy for you?” the wolf-girl teased with a smirk. “Don’t hold back, not in the dorm.”
“...”
With these two around, there were no secrets in this dorm.
As the conversation shifted to teasing Lily, Ning Chu sighed with relief, flipping over, only to see her phone screen light up with a new, unread message.
She didn’t even have to check to know it was from Wen Yang.
“Are you asleep yet? How’s the girls’ dorm treating you?”
Sure enough, it was Wen Yang’s goodnight text.
Seeing his message made Ning Chu feel strangely at ease. She eagerly began typing back, venting her frustrations about the dorm situation.
“It’s awful! They shed hair everywhere! Especially Yan Xinya and Lily!”
“They’re up late talking instead of sleeping.”
“Oh, and Lily seems to be into you, so watch out for her!”
She sent a string of messages, and Wen Yang, unsure of how to respond, simply tried to comfort her. “It’s okay, you’ll get used to it after a few days.”
“How about I come to the dorm tomorrow morning and we grab breakfast together?”
“Sure!”
Ning Chu turned over again, lying on her stomach. Despite the increasingly heavy and sensual sounds coming from Lily, she continued chatting with Wen Yang, determined to distract herself.
No way was she going to let Lily’s actions affect her.
Even though she had opened the door to a whole new world, Ning Chu still found it difficult to fully accept the changes in her body. The unsettling restlessness within her made her uncomfortable, and she had no intention of indulging it unless absolutely necessary.
Sure, it might feel good, but she feared she’d fall deeper and deeper into it—turning not just her body but her whole self into a complete girl. Worse, what if she ended up craving it all the time and became impossible to handle?!
“...”
Ning Chu’s fingers suddenly paused in the middle of typing.
She hesitated, glancing down at the unfamiliar heat spreading in her lower abdomen.
“What are you doing right now?” she angrily typed to Wen Yang.
“I’m out with Shaoqing and Wang Jie, getting some late-night snacks.”
What?! He’s out partying without me? It’s almost 11 PM, and he’s still out there messing around?!
“Shaoqing and Wang Jie are both drunk. I’m trying to figure out how to get them home,” Wen Yang continued. “A girl even came over to hit on us, offering to book a room for them. Definitely a scam—probably just a hotel employee.”
He actually sounded proud of himself for spotting the scam. How could he be so clueless when she was fuming with jealousy?!
Ning Chu’s face turned bright red as she clenched her phone tightly, burying her face into her pillow.
I’m doomed...
“Hey, Ning Chu?” Yan Xinya was the first to notice the shift in the air. “Why is it getting so hot all of a sudden?”
“Is Ning Chu getting turned on too?”
“She is a succubus after all~”
“Really?” Lily muttered in surprise. “It feels like our dorm is getting crazier and crazier...”
Ning Chu couldn’t even lift her head from the shame.
Suddenly, Lily’s hand reached over from her bed and, with suspicious generosity, placed a small oval-shaped object into Ning Chu’s hand.
“It’s been sanitized. It’s clean.”
“...”
