Trapped in Paradise

Chapter 263: You’re Actually a Succubus

Uh-oh!

The spray just landed in the open takeout box!

When Ning Chu realized she couldn’t move, she immediately understood the problem, but all she could do was stiffen up, unable to take any action to remedy the situation.

Internally, she was clueless and panicking, and could only roll her eyes, attempting to communicate with Nana, who was also sitting dumbly on the sofa.

But they had only known each other for a few hours, so there was no telepathy at all.

They were just staring at each other in confusion.

Can’t make sense of this…

But Nana was definitely laughing at her!

That twinkling gaze was giving it away!

Ning Chu glared resentfully at Nana, waiting patiently for the hypnosis to wear off.

Thankfully, Wen Yang wasn’t in the rental apartment; who knows what perverted requests he might make.

A couple of minutes passed, and Nana suddenly shivered, then realized she could move again.

She touched her cheek and muttered, “Does this mean I’m not afraid of men anymore?”

Not getting an answer, she raised her eyes to look at Ning Chu, who was sitting to the side, holding a plate of fried noodles.

She really wanted to laugh, but being the reserved type, she held it in.

“You okay?”

“……”

Her wariness towards Ning Chu had completely vanished. What kind of bad person would hypnotize themselves like that?

Nana tentatively asked, “Want to eat?”

So Ning Chu began to eat her lunch, albeit a bit stiffly.

No! There’s hypnosis spray in the fried noodles! Aren’t you making the hypnosis last longer?!

“Wow, it really makes you obedient…”

While Ning Chu munched on her lunch, her insides were a jumbled mess. If Nana wanted to do anything to her now, she would have no means of resistance.

Fortunately, the most valuable item in the house was only a laptop worth just over two thousand.

Nana opened her takeout box, her movements graceful as she ate, yet her gaze stayed glued to Ning Chu.

She hesitated and said, “I’ll ask, you answer, okay?”

“Why are you helping me?”

“Afraid you’ll seduce my boyfriend.”

Ning Chu’s brain merely flashed an instinctive answer, but her mouth spoke uncontrollably.

We’ve barely known each other for a few hours! Please don’t ask any embarrassing questions!

“I’m not that kind of person,” Nana rebutted softly.

She gazed at Ning Chu’s face and, confirming that the hypnosis truly worked, couldn’t help but feel a little rush of excitement inside.

“Why do you seem like you’ve been hypnotized longer than me?”

Because I’m munching on these hypnosis noodles!

Ning Chu sighed internally. The longer she couldn’t control her body, the more anxious and panicked she felt.

Fortunately, Nana wasn’t the sadistic kind. She might’ve had some thoughts, but in the end, she didn’t issue further commands.

After a few more minutes, Ning Chu’s hypnotic state was lifted.

She gasped, instant cold sweat trickling down her back.

“You alright?”

“Yeah… thankfully you didn’t make me do anything; you scared me to death.”

Ning Chu patted her thumping chest, and after steadying her breath, gave Nana a pointed look. “Didn’t you notice I was hypnotized only after eating the fried noodles?”

“You kept making me eat!”

“Really?!” Nana was taken aback, looking guilty as she lowered her head. “I thought it was because the windows were closed.”

Seeing her looking pitiful made Ning Chu relent. “Forget it, I’m not blaming you.”

At least she was full.

She stood up and glanced at the time. “Are you planning to go back to school now, or do you want to wait an hour and then head back with me?”

“Let’s go together.”

“Uh…”

Ning Chu looked down at her stomach, aside from a bit of discomfort from Aunt Flow, she didn’t feel any weird sensations.

Is Nana’s plot not over yet?

Is the hypnosis spray not effective?

She turned to Nana and asked, “Why don’t you go downstairs and help me buy some snacks?”

“Huh? Isn’t there a lot on the coffee table?”

“I meant I want you to talk to the store owner for a moment to see if your fear of men has improved.”

This girl’s fear of men was clearly severe; just having a guy look at her would make her tense up, she’d always pull her hoodie over her head.

And the store owner downstairs was a bald man with a face full of meat, looking like an escaped convict.

Even she felt guilty talking to him; how could Nana manage?

“I… I don’t dare,” Nana hesitated, shrinking her neck in fear.

“Try it; you’ve been hypnotized, we need to check the results.”

After a silent moment of thought, she finally stood up. “Okay then.”

Once she realizes she really isn’t afraid of men anymore, I guess the plot will be disrupted?

Ning Chu was already prepared to dash to the bathroom for a shower afterward.

In the past, she could withstand being punished a couple of times before her sanity broke, but now even once might be too much for her.

All because Wen Yang made her experience the thrill of a succubus…

She had to rely on showers for support; if it weren’t for her period, a cold shower would be even better.

“Grab the keys; I’m going to take a shower soon.”

Having both fallen into a hypnotic state, their trust in each other shot up significantly.

Ning Chu confidently handed the keys to Nana.

“Uh…”

Nana hesitated, looking back three times as she left, while Ning Chu packed up the takeout and tossed it in the trash, heading to the wardrobe to grab a change of clothes.

Bringing the clothes into the bathroom, she closed the door, leaning against the sink, waiting for her punishment to arrive.

She wasn’t entirely sure if the hypnosis spray would work, she felt a bit apprehensive.

“Logically, it should be fine…”

“What if it doesn’t work?”

Surely I can’t rely on Wen Yang to ‘cure’ Nana? While treating her, wouldn’t that just end up like the plot—ending up in bed?

She’s definitely not a fan of that scenario.

Fortunately, that familiar, unbearable heat began rising.

As her heartbeat quickened, that warmth deep in her abdomen started pulsing, painting her cheeks with a layer of rosy pink.

“Good thing it’s working.”

Ning Chu sighed in relief, quickly undressing to prepare for her shower.

If Nana took too long to come back, she would be able to act on her urges.

The warm water quickly suppressed the slight impulsiveness.

A sound of the door opening came from outside, followed by Nana’s excited voice: “Ning Chu! Ning Chu!”

“I think I’m really not afraid anymore!”

She rushed excitedly to the bathroom door, knocking to share the good news: “It really works!”

“Just don’t get too clingy with Wen Yang.”

“Why does your voice sound weird?” Nana ran back, breathless, leaning against the wall. “I… I’m feeling a bit dizzy from excitement…”

“Ah?”

“Thud!”

Hearing something heavy drop outside, Ning Chu quickly turned off the water, grabbed a bath towel from the rack and wrapped it around herself, hastily opening the door.

Oh no! Don’t die in my rental apartment!

Aside from her fear of men, Nana was frail, and her health had always been poor since childhood.

In the book, she had passed out from the male lead’s teasing several times…

“What’s wrong?!” Ning Chu saw Nana just collapsed on the floor and breathed a sigh of relief. “I thought you fainted again.”

Sitting on the ground, Nana was pale, staring at Ning Chu, all wrapped up in a bath towel, her gaze quickly landing on that iconic heart-shaped tail.

“You’re actually a succubus… I had no idea!”

“……”
