Ning Chu sat properly on the sofa, her gaze darting around guiltily, hands awkwardly pressed between her thighs. The flush on her face hadn’t faded at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the tips of her ears were bright red. Even through the screen, she could feel the strange looks her mother and Black Bean were directing at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Black Bean’s innocent, curious gaze, it made the embarrassment in Ning Chu’s heart burn even hotter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are big sister’s cat ears?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What big sister wore just now was really pretty~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu was so mortified she could barely lift her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Black Bean had already been a cat girl for quite a while, this cat clearly hadn’t realized just howprovocativeher sister’s outfit had been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang was also a little awkward. He stood to the side, rubbing the bridge of his nose and smiling sheepishly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t learn from your sister,” Ning Juan said, lightly patting Black Bean on the head. Then she teasingly asked Ning Chu, “Looks like you’re doing pretty well living outside?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s… okay, I guess. I just caught a bit of a cold today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The weather hasn’t warmed up yet, of course you’d catch a cold if you wore so little.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“……”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu hung her head low, so embarrassed she wanted to bury it straight into the ground. Her toes curled tightly inside her cotton slippers, wishing she could scrape out a three-bedroom apartment from the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Has something happened to your brother lately?” Ning Juan asked, propping the phone up on the table while combing Black Bean’s hair. “I told him to come home and rest, have a meal, but he wouldn’t. Did he get a girlfriend?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… didn’t know?” Ning Chu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation in front of her was unbearably awkward. She desperately needed some explosive gossip to divert her mother’s and Black Bean’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry, big brother~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big brother got a girlfriend, they might even be living together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Juan froze for a moment, then looked shocked and delighted. “Really?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really. Wen Yang’s seen her too, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang nodded honestly. “She’s a pretty girl. I met her once when Ning Yuan drove us to the station.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think she was his college classmate. After graduation they ended up working at the same company, and feelings grew over time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Juan beamed so hard she could barely close her mouth. “Then when are they getting married? Hey, what should we name my eldest grandson? How much should the bride price be?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“……”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How wouldIknow?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu quickly changed direction. “Mom, if they’re getting married, they’ll need a place to live, right? The house at home is too small.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. This place is worth quite a bit,” Ning Juan muttered happily. “I’m going to raid his rental place this weekend. That brat found a girlfriend and didn’t even tell me! I don’t even know what the girl looks like.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t tell big brother you know about it from me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Bean leaned in, her childish face filling the entire phone screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared eagerly at Ning Chu and Wen Yang through the screen. “When are you coming back? I’m almost starving to death because of Mom~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Starving to death?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at that chubby little face, she really didn’t look like someone who was being deprived of food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Bean nodded vigorously. “I can’t even eat midnight snacks anymore! And I’m only allowed half a bowl of rice!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mom? She’s still young, she needs nutrition to grow!” Ning Chu protested indignantly, feeling heartbroken. “How can you not let her eat her fill?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Juan pressed a hand down on Black Bean’s head, her face still glowing with joy over her eldest son getting a girlfriend. “Still hungry? You’re practically turning into a little pig.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Xin, lift up your clothes and let your sister see.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When she sits down, the rolls on her belly stack up into three layers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s a primordial pouch! Cats all have it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Juan grabbed Black Bean by the cat ears. “Learning excuses from your sister now, are you? Fat is fat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu was hit by a stray bullet, wearing a completely innocent and baffled expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at her face too. Compared to before winter break, isn’t it a whole lot rounder? You two spoil her way too much!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu twitched her lips slightly and took a closer look. Black Beandidseem rounder than before—soft and chubby, but honestly even cuter that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kids who were just starting to grow usually benefited from being a little plump anyway. Once they shot up in height, that extra flesh would disappear without a trace… Her brother Ning Yuan had been a proper chubby kid in his early teens, but once he hit middle school and grew taller, he turned into a beanpole in less than a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Wen Yang was the first to defect. “Then yeah, she should eat a bit less and lose some weight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right?” Ning Juan nodded with a smile. “Ning Xin, did you hear that? Your brother says you should eat less and slim down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy, just to curry favor with his future mother-in-law, sold Black Bean out without the slightest hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Bean looked at Wen Yang pitifully. Seeing that he had absolutely no intention of taking it back, she puffed up her cheeks like a pufferfish in anger. “I’m not talking to big brother anymore!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hopped off the bed and stormed out of the room in a huff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her upset, Ning Juan helplessly raised her voice. “Ning Xin, big brother says he’ll treat you to barbecue tonight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m coming! I’m coming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black Bean instantly changed expressions, bouncing back happily. “I’ll start dieting after this meal!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You say that every time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up the video call with her mother, Ning Chu collapsed lifelessly onto the armrest of the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking back to how she’d appeared in front of her mother and Black Bean wearing that maid outfit, the blush on her cheeks refused to fade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is all your fault. Why didn’t you say anything when my mom called you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lifted her bare foot and kicked Wen Yang in the waist a few times, only for him to catch it firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t expect you to have boughtthatkind of outfit either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu’s foot was smooth and pale, without the slightest callus. Her toes were small and pink, and as Wen Yang released his grip, he couldn’t help running his hand once along her ankle, instep, and toes from top to bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You pervert!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like she’d been shocked by electricity, even her lower belly twitched. Ning Chu quickly pulled her foot back, curling both legs up in front of her. The awkward blush on her face deepened with a hint of rosy pink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being a succubus was really too hard…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For normal people, places like the waist, sides, armpits, or soles were ticklish spots, you touched them and they’d just laugh. But for her, one touch was enough to make her whole body go weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Add in her tail, horn roots, and ears, and practically her entire body was a sensitive zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t touch me! I’ve got a cold!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang hadn’t actually had any lewd intentions. He gave a short reply and lowered his head to finish off the leftovers. That only made Ning Chu feel like her own head was full of dirty thoughts. Mortified, she covered her face with one hand, stood up, and left the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat down in front of the computer, but was in no mood to write. Propping her cheek in her palm, she stared blankly at the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, something was placed on her head. She turned to look and saw Wen Yang standing behind her, having finished eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These cat ears actually go surprisingly well with your succubus horns,” Wen Yang commented, stroking his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not going to try that outfit on again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Absolutely not!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Link for character illustration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>https:\u002F\u002Fdrive.google.com\u002Fdrive\u002Ffolders\u002F1IxOucqi87ss3bmqfO9zI2gYiM1Gy8Hz2\u003C\u002Fp>",1425,"2026-06-10T06:04:15.011Z",1,"novelbin.me","39fda4c6b8df068f036d037a7d5a51f29e4e31751c975281318aac6158f2aab4","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-430","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-428",471,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrapped-in-paradise-cover.jpg"]
