With spring arriving, those beast girls were all going into heat, and the hentai heroines might be starting to set their sights on Wen Yang again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her horns would probably finish growing in just a few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sweeping her gaze around the court and finding no immediate threats, she shifted her eyes back to Wen Yang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the court, Wen Yang was wearing only a white tank top and athletic pants. His thick, powerful muscles rose and stretched with every movement, beads of sweat steaming faintly in the chilly air. His vigorous, virile presence was enough to make anyone drool—simply the perfect prey for a succubus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu subconsciously wiped the corner of her mouth, then guiltily glanced at Lily beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Ning Chu, who had already tasted the forbidden fruit and fallen deep into corruption, Lily didn’t even look up. She sat properly like a lady, calmly playing with her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I’ve really fallen far… even worse than a natural born succubus.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I used to be a man too, damn it!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu cursed inwardly, while outwardly asking in a casual tone, “Where did Xi Xi go?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hunting evil beings,” Lily replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lily had originally planned to return to the dorm to research her little octopus, but Yan Xinya had forcibly dragged her out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wolf girl was on another basketball court not far away. Despite the cold weather, she wore only tight shorts and a sports bra, her hair tied into a ponytail, brimming with energy as she vented it all on the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her defined abs and pretty face, she was the most eye-catching presence on the basketball court, drawing the gaze of most of the men around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu merely glanced over lightly and muttered, “No idea which poor guy she’ll pounce on in the future.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That girl had been completely listless in the morning, yet now she seemed overly excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A PE student?” Lily said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That would actually suit her,” Ning Chu replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lily fell silent again. She was usually a woman of few words, and unless the topic was something lewd, she rarely initiated conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu leaned over to peek at Lily’s phone screen and found her reading a raunchy NSFW novel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s so interesting about that…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, without lewd topics, there was nothing to talk about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu sighed inwardly, then suddenly caught a whiff of danger. She jerked her head up and saw that several pretty, delicate-looking girls had quietly gathered near the edge of the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Foxes, cats, dogs, rabbits…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them beast girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by their looks, they weren’t a hentai heroines and couldn’t trigger any plotlines. They were probably just drawn over by Wen Yang’s dense, masculine pheromones while in heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, Ning Chu’s guard shot up to maximum. A strong scent of vinegar practically radiated off her, making Lily fan the air repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re just looking,” Lily said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You wouldn’t be saying that if it were your boyfriend being ogled,” Ning Chu shot back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re a walking vinegar jar.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu had long since gotten used to this “persona.” Even though, at the very beginning, she really had only wanted to sabotage the plot to avoid getting thoroughly wrecked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood up and moved to the edge of the court as well, just in case the girls swarmed Wen Yang the moment he came off the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking out at Wen Yang, even though she didn’t really understand basketball, she could clearly tell he was much more skilled than the first time she’d seen him play. His shooting and dribbling were smoother, and paired with his nearly 1.9-meter height, he charged across the court like a runaway dump truck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheers erupted from the fangirls at the sidelines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu crossed her arms over her chest, snorted disdainfully, and grumbled in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously, what kind of people are these?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang was a normal guy, and he clearly enjoyed the attention from girls, a broad smile on his face. But the moment his gaze fell on Ning Chu, that smile immediately softened and became restrained, gentle—like a big dog spotting its owner—before he ran straight over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wave of heat rolled toward her. Ning Chu instinctively took a step back and frowned. “You stink of sweat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll take a shower as soon as we get back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She handed him the towel she was holding. “Finished?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the big boy in front of her wipe away his sweat, Ning Chu suddenly realized just how much Wen Yang had changed without her noticing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just his healthier physique and complexion after his nutrition improved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old Wen Yang, when he first appeared, had been somewhat introverted and insecure, always a little awkward in what he did. In the story, he had been molded into a smooth, womanizing scumbag under the careful guidance of several mature CEOs who were looking for a master. Wen Yang, however, had gone down the “golden retriever” route instead, gradually becoming sunny and outgoing, steady and motivated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he was just a student. Although he was clearly developing in a good direction, there weren’t any tangible achievements yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bring first place back for our class! Try to make it onto the school team!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The school team’s all PE students,” Wen Yang said with a smile and a nod. “I’ll do my best.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When that happens, I’ll reward you by wearing a cheerleader outfit~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw straight through her intentions. “You just want to try some new position and are looking for an excuse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As if~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite how wild she was in bed, the little succubus’s face was now flushed red, shy like an innocent young girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu glanced around to make sure no one was listening. The redness on her face quickly faded, and she handed him the trench coat she was holding. “Put this on already. Don’t catch a cold.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the drizzling spring rain had stopped for the day, it was still cold enough to make it easy to get sick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While waiting for Wen Yang to put on the coat, she remained like a food-guarding kitten, her eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, her gaze froze on a girl in the distance on the field, walking with an awkward gait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl was dressed in pure white, a skirt so short it barely reached the tops of her thighs, with garter straps around her legs. She seemed unwell, one hand pressed to her lower abdomen, her face flushed red, sweat beading on her delicate nose, her calves trembling slightly, as if she might collapse at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others might not notice anything strange, but as a succubus and an author of various NSFW fiction, Ning Chu could tell at a glance that something was wrong with that girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a high chance she was a hentai heroine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you looking at?” Wen Yang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu didn’t draw attention to it. She looped her arm through Wen Yang’s and turned to call out to Lily, “Lily! We’re heading back first!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her name, Lily looked up and waved. But at that moment, Yan Xinya came charging over noisily, dove straight into the succubus arms, and knocked her right off the bench.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hit the ground painfully. Looking down at Yan Xinya sprawled against her chest, Lily’s face darkened. Expressionless, she stood up and limped toward the exit of the sports field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lily~ Lily! I didn’t mean to! I’m sorry~!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the scene from afar, Ning Chu muttered under her breath, “That must’ve hurt…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Succubi were sensitive to begin with. Falling flat like that had left Lily in so much pain she could barely walk straight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Ning Chu was pulled back by Wen Yang. She stopped at once, realizing she had almost bumped into someone, and apologized reflexively. “Sorry, I—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she looked up, she realized the person she’d nearly collided with was the short-skirted girl she’d noticed earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine…” the girl said, her face flushed as she awkwardly took a step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At such close range, Wen Yang also immediately noticed something was off. “You don’t look too well. Do you want to go to the infirmary?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he finished speaking, the girl panicked and collapsed onto the ground, sitting there unable to get back up for quite a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu let out a troubled sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looks like there’s no avoiding this plotline after all…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Link for character illustration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>https:\u002F\u002Fdrive.google.com\u002Fdrive\u002Ffolders\u002F1IxOucqi87ss3bmqfO9zI2gYiM1Gy8Hz2\u003C\u002Fp>",1458,"2026-06-10T06:04:15.011Z",1,"novelbin.me","5faa08cc9f3a2812d95f4290f8765a5cc2da285e9930ab307f7dc3a1ea8bf427","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-445","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-443",471,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrapped-in-paradise-cover.jpg"]
