Chapter 482

The area near Lily’s home was part of the city’s newly developed district. Although it was a bit remote and the infrastructure wasn’t fully complete yet—even the roadside trees were still short—it was quite close to a hot spring resort.

The group took a ride-hailing car and arrived at the entrance of the resort in just over ten minutes.

It was Ning Chu’s first time in a place like this. She looked around curiously, taking in the surroundings of the venue, which didn’t seem all that different from a hotel.

Inside, the resort had KTV rooms, a bar, massages, and hot spring saunas—basically covering all kinds of entertainment. If it wasn’t strictly regulated, there might even be “touch-and-sing” services.

Places like this were exactly the kind Ning Chu usually avoided. They were prime spots for triggering hentai heroine plotlines, and it was easy to run into shady guys or big-dicked ojii-san...

When she agreed to go to the hot springs with Yan Xinya, no one mentioned it would be at a resort like this.

Zhang Shaoqing, however, was clearly very familiar with such places. Acting like a regular, he casually led the group straight to the front desk.

Ning Chu felt a bit uneasy. She moved closer to Wen Yang, hooking her arm around his well-defined, muscular arm, glancing around nervously.

Even the staff here were prettier than outside—almost on par with the school, which was basically the main stage of the hentai novel.

Yan Xinya suddenly leaned in, her face full of that knowing, teasing smile women shared. “They’ve got really private little hot spring pools here~”

Wouldn’t that mean she could safely take over the hot spring heroine plotline without worrying about being seen?

Ning Chu had to admit—she was tempted.

But under that mischievous grin of the wolf girl, her sense of embarrassment flared up. Even though she was tempted, she blushed deeply and shook her head.

“You actually considered it! As expected of a succubus!”

The wolf girl caught that fleeting hesitation instantly.

“No! Of course not!”

Ning Chu shook her head so fast it almost blurred, and when Wen Yang glanced down at her, her face burned even hotter.

“Hey, why don’t Qian Qian and I just stay here tonight?” Zhang Shaoqing suddenly turned around from the front desk. “They’ve got rooms here too, and Lily’s place doesn’t have enough space anyway, right?”

His intentions were obvious to everyone. Qian Qian, seeing the knowing looks from the others, shyly pinched his waist, making his face turn pale from the pain.

“Then Wen Yang doesn’t have to sleep on the floor with you tonight, he can just share a room with me,” Ning Chu said instinctively.

Everyone’s gaze immediately shifted to her.

Her face was already flushed with embarrassment, and under everyone’s scrutiny, it grew even more alluringly red. Stammering, she hid behind Wen Yang. “I won’t make noise at night...”

Although she had long since “fallen” and lost all sense of restraint in private—snacking late at night and drinking milk in the morning like a proper succubus—she still maintained a girl’s modesty in public.

In fact, because she occasionally remembered that she used to be a man, she acted even more reserved than most girls.

She definitely didn’t dare do anything inappropriate in someone else’s house. How would she explain it if everyone saw damp sheets the next morning?

“Alright, I’ve already paid.”

The rich second-generation Zhang Shaoqing waved his hand casually. “You guys go to the hot springs with the staff. Qian Qian and I will check out the room.”

“When Wang Jie asked to borrow money before, you said you’d just bought new shoes...” Ning Chu muttered. “Now you’re being so generous.”

“Should we split the cost? It’s not that much anyway.”

It was Xi Xi’s first time taking advantage of a rich kid, and she wasn’t quite used to it.

“Don’t worry about him, he doesn’t care about the money himself.”

“It’s not like I paid a lot anyway,” Zhang Shaoqing said nonchalantly. Calling Qian Qian over, he headed toward the other side of the resort. “You only get two hours in the hot spring—if you go over, you pay for it yourselves!”

Although this rich kid had a bit of a bad personality and always acted cheeky and unserious, he was surprisingly generous when it came to money.

Ning Chu had originally thought it would be some kind of open-air mixed bath where you could just enter with a ticket. But instead, the group followed a staff member into a room with its own small courtyard.

In the small courtyard stood a large pool, surrounded by bamboo walls about two people tall. They let in a bit of light, but still ensured privacy.

“Wow! It’s actually a private room?!”

“Shaoqing is way too generous! How much does two hours cost?”

Yan Xinya and Xi Xi rushed into the room first, like two dogs—one big, one small—finally let off the leash. They bounced around excitedly, running back and forth to satisfy their curiosity.

“She didn’t get turned into a perv by Lily, but Xinya turned her into a dog instead,” Ning Chu muttered under her breath. She casually closed the door to the private room, then glanced at Lily, who was standing nearby looking up at the posted instructions. Ning Chu stepped closer and asked, “What are you looking at?”

“You have to shower before getting in.”

Lily pointed at the notice on the wall. Surrounded by familiar friends, she seemed a bit more talkative.

“That’s kind of like a swimming pool then~”

“You’ve been?”

“I went a couple of times as a kid. Didn’t even learn how to swim, I almost drowned instead...”

Lily nodded knowingly. “Skill issue.”

“...”

Speechless, Ning Chu turned to look at Wen Yang, who was sitting on a lounge chair, and walked over to sit beside him.

She poked his arm with her fingertip and asked in a teasing tone, “Why aren’t you going in the hot spring? Why are you just sitting here?”

“I’ll pass. It’s all girls.”

“Isn’t that even better?”

Wen Yang glanced at her. “Trying to set me up, huh?”

If he showed even the slightest bit of interest, Ning Chu would probably pinch the soft flesh at his waist without hesitation and twist hard.

“If it were one of those big outdoor mixed hot springs, maybe. But this one’s so small, and I’d be the only guy—what would I even be getting in for?” he said righteously. “Wouldn’t that just be taking advantage of them?”

“Fair point~” Ning Chu nodded in satisfaction.

After her “training,” the hentai protagonist had developed enough self-control to easily resist temptation~

“Want something to eat? I can go buy something for you guys,” Wen Yang offered. Even though Ning Chu had fed him plenty of snacks earlier in the afternoon, he was already getting hungry again.

“Sure, be careful on the way.”

As soon as Wen Yang left, Yan Xinya and Xi Xi finished exploring the entire private room and came running back noisily.

“Ning Chu! Ning Chu! Let’s go soak in the hot spring!”

“I’ll go after I eat...”

Before she could finish, Yan Xinya grabbed her arm and dragged her toward the bathroom. “Come on, come on! Quick shower and then into the hot spring!”

“Wait! Can’t we go one at a time?!”

She panicked and struggled, but the wolf girl was surprisingly strong. Ning Chu’s feet slipped as she was dragged along, sliding all the way toward the shower room.

After being a girl for so long, she had gotten used to things like sharing a bed with her friends or changing clothes in front of other girls... but showering together felt like going a bit too far!

She no longer had any thoughts about other girls—no matter how bare their bodies were, it didn’t stir any improper ideas in her mind. After all, her own figure was even better.

But that lingering shyness from her past as an inexperienced guy, along with the embarrassment of possibly exposing the silver mark on her body, still kept her from doing something like this.

“What are you being shy for~ Lily isn’t scared, and we’re all girls here~”

Lily silently took two steps back.

Yan Xinya let go of Ning Chu’s hand and turned to look at the two “failures of succubi.”

“You two are supposed to be succubi, you know~”

The two of them shook their heads in perfect sync like rattles.
