She’s obviously super shy but keeps a straight face—so cute! I really want to take her home~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The short-haired one is even prettier and has an even better body!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Groups of girls filed out of the classroom, chatting animatedly about the two succubi in their yoga class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang leaned against the corridor railing, listening to their discussion about Ning Chu, and finally let out a breath of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all seemed pretty friendly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe Ning Chu would be able to make some new friends among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t have to wait long before a little succubus rushed out of the classroom in a hurry, flung herself at him, wrapped her arms around his waist, and buried her flushed face into his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The horns—already as long as an index finger—jabbed into Wen Yang’s ribs, making him suck in a sharp breath. The little succubus also let out a soft cry of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, he lowered his head, gently stroking her hair, and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A bunch of girls were staring at me while I was changing… ahhh~ my sense of shame is about to explode!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They just kept staring! And someone even tried to grab my tail!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next time I have yoga class, I’ll wear the yoga clothes underneath in advance—then I won’t have to change!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xinya and Lily finally strolled out of the classroom at a leisurely pace. They happened to catch Ning Chu’s complaints, and the wolf girl smiled as she shot them down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That definitely won’t work~ After class you’ll be all sweaty—are you really going to put your coat back on and trap all that heat?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her friends arrive, Ning Chu quickly let go of Wen Yang’s waist and muttered, “The yoga class wasn’t that tiring, so I won’t sweat that much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu looked up at Lily, who seemed to share the same troubles—but Lily just blushed and lowered her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all girls, yet the shyest ones in the changing room had been the two succubus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu stopped dwelling on it and tugged on Wen Yang’s arm as they headed for the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go—want to grab dinner together? I’m starving.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Food! Food!” Yan Xinya immediately darted ahead, urging them on. “Hurry up! Time to eat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The yoga class was only forty-five minutes long. It had started at 6:30, and now it was just past seven—perfect dinner time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the first class wasn’t very intense, after moving around a bit, Ning Chu’s stomach was already growling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was completely dark now, with no stars or moon in sight. Under the night sky, the four of them arrived at the quiet cafeteria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t even 7:30 yet, but more than half of the stalls were already closed. The cleaning staff were mopping the floors, and only a few scattered students remained inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu scanned the still-open stalls and spotted a dumpling shop that had just opened for the new semester.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wen Yang! I want dumplings!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tugged on Wen Yang’s arm and pointed toward the dumpling stall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright. Go find a seat—I’ll buy them for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu found a seat and sat down alone, reaching up to touch the horns beneath her hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After completing the twin sisters' plotlines, not only had her horns grown longer, but the sisters themselves had vanished without a trace. Clearly, her strategy had worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m a genius~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could avoid the arousal punishment that came with breaking the plot, make those bad women lose interest in Wen Yang, and even confidently practice some new ‘combat stance’...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Chu?” Lily sat down across from her, tilting her head in confusion as she looked at her. “You’re smiling really… lewdly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being stared at by that cool, icy face, Ning Chu hurriedly reined in the strange fantasies running through her head and changed the subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did you order?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beef noodles.” Lily pointed toward a nearby stall. “They’re good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not that into noodles. I’ll try them some other time…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lily had always been quiet. After that brief exchange, she lowered her head and went back to playing on her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t wait long before Wen Yang returned, carrying two bowls of soup dumplings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chive and pork, and shrimp with mixed fillings,” he said as he sat down beside Ning Chu and handed her a spoon. “Try them and see how they taste.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Soup dumplings, huh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu scooped one up, blew on it a few times, then carefully bit through the skin. A single scalding dumpling took her a full half minute to finish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s so-so. Not as good as my mom’s,” she frowned and muttered. “The filling’s too loose—you can’t even taste the meat properly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then how about I buy some meat this weekend and make them for you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay! I’ll ask my mom for the recipe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their rented place didn’t have a range hood, so stir-frying wasn’t an option, but they had all the pots and bowls they needed. Boiling, steaming, cooking dumplings or noodles—no problem at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Make way, make way!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Xinya came back carrying a bowl of spicy mix nearly as big as her face. She plopped it heavily onto the table, making it seem like the whole table shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This girl’s appetite was no worse than Wen Yang’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! Ning Chu, why are you dipping dumplings in ketchup?!” After taking a couple of bites, the wolf girl suddenly noticed Ning Chu’s strange habit. “Shouldn’t you normally dip them in vinegar?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? I like ketchup.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu had eaten dumplings with ketchup since she was a child—her whole family did. Before leaving home for university, she’d never thought there was anything odd about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heretic! Let me try a bite! Aaah~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rolling her eyes, Ning Chu stuffed a ketchup-dipped dumpling straight into Yan Xinya’s wide-open mouth. “Burn yourself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not hot~ Still… that’s really weird… Lily, you try it too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lily shook her head and obediently continued eating her beef noodles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let me try your noodles!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the two girls fool around, Ning Chu drank a couple of spoonfuls of soup to warm herself up, then pushed her bowl of dumplings toward Wen Yang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not eating anymore?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re not good,” she complained. “They’re supposedly handmade on the spot, but they’re worse than frozen dumplings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the key uses of having a boyfriend was being able to shove all the bad food you bought into his stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, men weren't picky—and Wen Yang had a big appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much were the dumplings?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Twenty yuan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the price, Ning Chu got even angrier. “That expensive, and they’re still this bad!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her indignation, Wen Yang smiled and soothed her. “It’s fine. Just think of it as me treating you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu replied righteously, “Isn’t your money basically my money anyway?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes. Do you want anything else to eat?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmm… maybe let’s just order takeout when we get back? The cafeteria’s about to close.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they’d first come in, there had still been other students around. Now, their table was the only one left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cleaning staff had already shut both side doors, leaving only the main entrance half open for them to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Link for character illustration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>https:\u002F\u002Fdrive.google.com\u002Fdrive\u002Ffolders\u002F1IxOucqi87ss3bmqfO9zI2gYiM1Gy8Hz2\u003C\u002Fp>",1230,"2026-06-10T06:04:15.011Z",1,"novelbin.me","fe108df1143d89ebbb1ceeb008504e083868c300ff275a44bd66cb90893ff941","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-414","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-412",471,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrapped-in-paradise-cover.jpg"]
