Where’s that Montmorillonite powder? Where did you put it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve got an upset stomach? It’s in the bottom cabinet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Chu’s the one with the stomach pain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He…” Wen Yang hesitated, then changed his answer. “He has a stomachache. Montmorillonite powder is for diarrhea; it’s no use.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Shaoqing understood and teased as he watched Wen Yang mix hot water and brown sugar, “Is Ning Chu having his period? Why did you get him brown sugar water?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It works for stomachaches too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu weakly agreed, “Yeah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Wen Yang hadn’t even asked about the nature of his pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if it was really diarrhea?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Wen Yang just assume it was a stomachache?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brown sugar water is more commonly used when comforting a girlfriend with menstrual pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu looked up suspiciously, only to see the brown sugar water being pushed against his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang glanced down at him. “Drink.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh.” Ning Chu obediently held the cup in both hands and cautiously sipped the brown sugar water after blowing on it a few times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was seriously starting to wonder if something was wrong with Wen Yang’s mindset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced up at Wen Yang, who was busy taking out painkillers, and couldn’t help but think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guy had once seriously questioned his gender, and now he seemed to be treating him like a girl on her period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Wen Yang already believe he was a girl?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was just a guy who happened to look feminine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still lived in the boys’ dorm, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Yang’s thought process was definitely messed up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he still had his boy parts—just, you know, smaller.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After drinking some brown sugar water and taking the painkillers, Ning Chu started feeling slightly better, whether it was due to the medicine or just psychological relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to see Zhang Shaoqing already playing on his computer, then looked up at Wen Yang, who was standing by, watching him with an oddly gentle and concerned gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unsettling!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu couldn’t figure it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been overly controlling this whole week, constantly sticking to Wen Yang, even waiting outside the bathroom when he went.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Wen Yang so much as spoke to a girl, Ning Chu would drag him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d stopped Wen Yang’s private lessons with Shan Shan and avoided female characters whenever they crossed paths, snatching Wen Yang away if any girl tried to speak with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, even he felt like a creep or a crazy yandere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all that, any normal guy would’ve been furious or annoyed, right? So why did Wen Yang seem to like him even more?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, could he be a masochist…?” Ning Chu mumbled under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The novel didn’t mention Wen Yang being into that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his pain subsided a little, Ning Chu’s complexion improved, but he still felt drained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Resting his head on one hand, he listlessly clicked around on his computer while Wen Yang’s gentle gaze made him increasingly uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If things continued this way, he might need to run away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this rate, even if he remained a guy, he felt like he’d still end up fucked in more way than one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ning Chu relax slightly, Wen Yang poured another cup of hot water and asked, “Feeling better?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m heading to the cafeteria soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead. I’ll order delivery.” After being in pain all day, he didn’t have the energy to go out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surely nothing would go wrong just this once, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Want me to bring you a Coke?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I’m sick of it.” Ning Chu could tell Wen Yang was probing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But right now, he wouldn’t dare touch Coke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He probably wouldn’t even wash his face with anything but warm water for the next few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the dorm door closed behind Wen Yang, Ning Chu finally looked up, seeing that he was now truly alone in the dorm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anxiety bubbled up again, fearing that Wen Yang might get charmed by some girl—or worse, charm one himself—which only added to his already anxious mood caused by the stomach pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a deep breath, Ning Chu picked up his phone and opened a ticket-booking app.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Running away was his last resort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this kind of R18+ world, someone like him, with his looks, was an easy target for… things better left unsaid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the protagonist’s halo for protection, anything could happen: harassment on public transport, hypnotic deliverymen, random kidnappings, or even inexplicable monster attacks…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still remembered that brief moment at the amusement park when he was momentarily separated from Wen Yang and immediately felt several malicious gazes lurking in the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yikes—maybe running wasn’t the best idea after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shiver ran down his spine, quickly extinguishing his impulse. Perhaps he was just being paranoid, seeing danger where there wasn’t any.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling somewhat cowardly, Ning Chu sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things hadn’t reached the point where he absolutely had to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, staying in the dorm wasn’t completely safe, but running away would be a lot worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still a guy, even if barely so, and Wen Yang hadn’t outright expressed any romantic interest in him yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their friendship boat was close to tipping but hadn’t fully sunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, the novel clearly stated that his storyline wouldn’t truly kick off until he’d fully turned into a girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s wait and see…” he mumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Zhang Shaoqing’s voice startled him. “Buying tickets? Are you going home?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Chu jumped, turning to see Zhang Shaoqing peering nosily over his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s some stuff going on at home… I might have to leave at any time.” He planted the seed now, just in case he needed to make a sudden escape later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, gotcha.” Zhang Shaoqing didn’t pay it much mind and excitedly showed Ning Chu his phone. “Wanna help me hit the minimum for a discount? Spend 40 and get 5 off!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This place is really good, I swear!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep it down!” Wang Jie’s protest came from the top bunk. “I’m trying to sleep here. Can’t you be quiet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Shaoqing, ever thick-skinned, replied with a grin, “It’s almost six! Get up and eat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve been so noisy I’ve been half asleep the whole time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you sleep now, you’ll be up all night again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his roommates’ banter filling the dorm, Ning Chu laid on his desk, his face full of worry, clutching his stomach and staying motionless like a salted fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not yet… only when I’m fully turned into a girl, then I’ll run away.\u003C\u002Fp>",1146,"2026-06-10T06:04:15.010Z",1,"novelbin.me","1da6781a694171138df2ffbc9e5f230408825f287ae885af83372c3cc354ab31","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-90","trapped-in-paradise-chapter-88",471,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftrapped-in-paradise-cover.jpg"]
