NOVEL FROG Chapter 50
Chapter 50: What the Heck Is This?!
“Chest, got a size upgrade.”
What used to be a small soup dumpling that wasn’t even palm-sized has now turned into a juicy pan-fried bun from a breakfast shop, all plump and full of life.
It’s getting more and more noticeable.
Very early in the morning, as Ning Chu sat at his desk eating breakfast, he could clearly feel Wen Yang’s occasional gaze floating towards his chest.
This guy noticed Ning Chu’s change right away.
With such keen observance, why not take up sketching?
Breakfast was brought back by Wen Yang from the cafeteria. He had just woken up and plopped a bag of breakfast down on Ning Chu’s desk.
“I’m heading back, see you in a week!”
Wang Jie packed his things and yelled by the door, dragging his suitcase.
Zhang Shaoqing was munching on bread while gaming, Wen Yang shot him a glance, then turned his gaze back to Ning Chu’s chest, who was with his head down enjoying breakfast—none of the three in the dorm even bothered to look at him.
“I’m off!” Wang Jie slammed the door as he left, muttering.
“Oh! When you come back, remember to bring some local specialties!” Zhang Shaoqing suddenly remembered and called out, “Don’t forget!”
“Safe travels~” Ning Chu waved a hand, “And don’t go missing on the way~”
“So childish!”
Although it was a seven-day long break, the dorm still had three people for various reasons.
After finishing his breakfast, Ning Chu tossed the trash in the bin and turned to ask Zhang Shaoqing, “Aren’t you going home for the break?”
“I just went home a few days ago, I told my family the school isn’t having a break, just extra classes.”
“Oh~ What about you, Wen Yang?”
“My home is too far, train tickets are expensive, better to work during the break.”
You’re looking to get me into trouble again!
Ning Chu perked up, eyes wide open, “Where are you planning to work?!”
“Me? I’ll check it out, thinking of going out later…” Wen Yang suggested enthusiastically, “How about we go together? We can look out for each other.”
Now that’s more like it!
Zhang Shaoqing, completely uninterested in working, yawned and commented, “You two might as well get married already, always glued to each other.”
“Shut up!”
Since it’s a long break, Ning Chu was also considering the villain’s side of things.
The villain’s emotions were pretty unstable, easily collapsing under any stress, and right now he was most concerned about that childhood sweetheart cat girl.
Ning Chu’s tone softened a bit as he proposed to Zhang Shaoqing, “Shaoqing, how about we use all our dorm power this week! Let’s help you win over Ling Ling?”
Zhang Shaoqing’s eyes lit up but quickly dimmed again, “Forget it; she was dumped by Wen Yang and she’s in a bad mood now.”
“Wen Yang is a terrible person!”
“???”
Wen Yang was confused, “Huh? We didn’t even hold hands.”
At that time, Ling Ling was the one chasing Wen Yang, and Wen Yang only reluctantly agreed after getting annoyed by her persistence, but they barely exchanged words before she invited him to a late-night card game.
According to the plot, even with no emotional foundation, a guy and a girl would be tempted by each other, and if the girl initiated, they would end up doing everything possible in one night.
But now, Wen Yang actively chose to stay and game with Ning Chu, then directly broke up with Ling Ling.
“Shaoqing, why do you think Ling Ling won’t accept you? In terms of looks, you’re not worse than Wen Yang, and you’re way ahead of him in family matters.”
“Because she’s always seen me as a brother?”
Because you’re the villain, not the main character.
Ning Chu seriously analyzed, “Look, she likes Wen Yang, so there must be some qualities in him that you don’t have, right?”
“Maybe if you learn from Wen Yang, she’ll take a liking to you?”
Zhang Shaoqing’s face darkened, turning back to the computer.
Tch~ Why so prideful!
Ning Chu rolled his eyes at his back, then sighed and headed toward the bathroom.
Yesterday, Wen Yang had actively rejected the plot girl, and later Ning Chu ruined the fox spirit’s good time. Two plot disruptions should make his femininity stand out even more today.
His chest definitely filled out, becoming a pan-fried bun; what about other areas?
Entering the bathroom, Ning Chu wiped the mirror with a tissue and leaned in to check his face.
His face didn’t seem to have changed much; still a somewhat ambiguous look. He stepped back a bit to check his body shape.
Compared to before, his body was definitely fuller, not fat, just looking a bit soft and squishy.
“Seems like there’s no change overall; at least my butt hasn’t gotten bigger, otherwise I’d have to buy new pants.”
Now! The key point!
He turned around and locked the door, then took off his pants to see.
!!!
What the heck! Why did it shrink so much overnight!
He stared wide-eyed in shock, trembling with disbelief, and as he tried to brace himself on the toilet, he accidentally flailed and missed.
What’s this little bug about!
As Ning Chu left the bathroom in despair, Wen Yang happened to be washing clothes on the balcony. He caught a glimpse of Ning Chu’s downcast face and couldn’t help but be curious.
“What’s wrong?”
“I…” Ning Chu’s lips moved but no words came out.
With that sulking expression, Wen Yang really didn’t understand.
It seemed that every so often, Ning Chu would behave like a girl dealing with her period, easily irritable, withdrawn, like a ticking time bomb.
Plus, he could always sense Ning Chu’s changes, and this time, Ning Chu’s pectorals were noticeably fuller, looking all soft and bouncy; even with any big movements, they’d likely jiggle sneakily a bit.
Ning Chu leaned on the railing, head hanging low, his slightly longer hair falling down and hiding his face in shadow.
So frightening…
Next up, he had to go work with Wen Yang, who knows what might happen then.
“I just asked a friend; he added me to a part-time job group,” Wen Yang casually brought up his gig, “I saw a factory job—100 a day—with food and lodging provided since it’s in the suburbs, but I heard it’s super tiring.”
“No interest.”
“Uh, there’s also a street marketing job in the city center; with the sun this strong, it could be pretty hot.”
“Not interested either.”
Seeing Ning Chu’s state, he figured he wouldn’t be interested in any job.
Wen Yang shrugged, “Then I’ll tutor…”
“No way!”
Ning Chu suddenly reacted, whirling around to fix his big apricot eyes on Wen Yang, adamantly opposing, “Absolutely not!”
Tutoring is the disaster zone for Small Royal Text! In the plot, Wen Yang gave his student a whole lesson on physical health.
No matter if this time’s tutoring is the same as in the plot, just triggering it would either mean Wen Yang has a free ride or Ning Chu getting more feminine—neither outcome is pleasant!
Wen Yang was startled by his sudden objection, lowering his voice a bit, feeling oddly guilty: “Tutoring pays well…”
“Ha~”
Hearing that dismissive tone only made Wen Yang feel guiltier; taking on tutoring felt like cheating behind his girlfriend’s back.
Wait, Ning Chu is just his roommate!
