ALL NOVEL Chapter 17
Chapter 17: 017. Cowardly and Awkward
Think positively, Wen Yang just happened to be out shopping.
But recalling the bar plot that triggered in the cafeteria, Ning Chu’s face darkened.
Though he had interrupted that scene for now, the girls had not lost patience with Wen Yang, like lions lying in ambush in the grass, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment.
If the roles were reversed, and Ning Chu had a couple of scheming twin sisters trying to tempt him while mildly tipsy at the bar…
No matter how self-controlled you are, you wouldn’t be able to resist!
But he could, at most he’d be a bit distracted, after all, his weapon had already rusted.
“What should I do…” Ning Chu furrowed his brows tightly, sitting in front of the computer, shaking his leg incessantly. “If the plot continues, I’m definitely going to get into trouble.”
Once Wen Yang tasted the forbidden fruit, he would never be so obedient again.
Why couldn’t he just control himself!
Ning Chu’s face was filled with anxiety. After sitting in place for a moment, he couldn’t help but get up to go look for him. But after just two steps, he turned back, anxiously pacing back and forth in the dormitory.
Wang Jie had just finished a game, turned around, and looked at Ning Chu’s worried expression, curiosity piqued: “Are you looking for Wen Yang? Just call him.”
“Yeah, it’s kind of urgent.”
Call him…
Ning Chu turned to glance at the phone on the desk, feeling a bit tempted. But thinking it through, as a roommate trying to control Wen Yang, even if he said he was looking out for him, over time he’d definitely end up hated.
Even parents can only expect rebellion from long-term control over their kids.
But if he took no action and really let Wen Yang get completely devoured by those twins…
Wen Yang might have a happy sex life, but he was the one who would suffer in the future.
Ning Chu hesitated to sit back down, staring at the computer screen, brows tightly knit.
Damn! They say authors treat their main characters like their own children, so what’s wrong with being a bit strict with Wen Yang from a fatherly standpoint!
Being disliked is definitely better than being taken advantage of!
He quickly opened WeChat and sent a subtle message to Wen Yang: “I put the clothes in the washing machine. Where have you run off to? Bring them back when you come upstairs.”
This statement was meaningless on both ends, only the middle part was what Ning Chu really wanted to say.
“Ning Chu, I’m going to take a shower,” Wang Jie yawned, stretching lazily, “Seems like it’ll be just us two keeping each other company tonight~”
No way I want to keep you company!
“What a pity Shaoqing isn’t around, otherwise I could get him to treat us to some late-night snacks…” He took his clothes and, like an old man, knocked on his shoulder as he walked toward the bathroom.
“Uh-huh.”
Ning Chu perfunctorily replied to Wang Jie, his eyes glued to the WeChat interface, waiting for Wen Yang’s reply.
This is bad! This is bad!
There’s no way that guy could have left for less than half an hour and already be in the middle of a battle, right?
Anxiously, he dialed Wen Yang’s number, but after a few minutes, no one answered.
Ning Chu gripped his phone and sank into despair, feeling all the pent-up tension in his body finally release.
Forget it, I’m giving up~
Why can’t this guy just control his lower half!
Staring blankly at the desk, he felt mentally and physically exhausted, all his efforts over the past week reduced to dust.
“After all, he’s the male lead of the Small Royal Text, how could he possibly be restrained…” Ning Chu sighed in frustration, “I definitely need to use more radical measures.”
Like kidnapping Wen Yang! Tie him up in the basement!
As long as he controlled Wen Yang’s freedom, there wouldn’t be any plot development! No more worries or fears!
Like taking advantage of a dark night and giving Wen Yang’s boy parts a slice!
Castrate him! Solve all future problems once and for all!
Or add some hormones to his drink and chemically disable his boy parts!
In just a few minutes, Wang Jie was done washing up, walking into the room shirtless, but the smile on his face froze abruptly.
He instinctively looked at Ning Chu at the desk, feeling a chill run down his spine, as if he had seen a devil being born.
Ning Chu was brimming with malicious intent.
“Hey, hey, hey! What bad ideas are you cooking up?” Wang Jie stepped closer, leaning in to look at Ning Chu’s smiling face, waving his hand in front of Ning Chu’s eyes, “What are you spacing out for?”
Ning Chu finally snapped back to reality, hastily shaking his head to clear those evil thoughts from his mind: “Nothing.”
“Nothing? Then why were you just smiling like a creep?”
“Was I?!”
He shot Wang Jie a glare, then slumped back down: “Forget it, I can’t be bothered to argue with you.”
“Hey!”
Wang Jie had barely taken two steps when suddenly he heard Ning Chu scream. He looked back to see Ning Chu clutching his phone, darting to the balcony, his face filled with joy and relief.
“What’s wrong with you, so jumpy?”
On the balcony, Ning Chu held his phone, glancing at the incoming call reminder. He eagerly placed his thumb over the answer button but suddenly hesitated.
If he acted too eager, Wen Yang might think something was up.
Clearing his throat softly, he slightly calmed his emotions before nervously answering the call: “Hello?”
“What do you need?”
On the other end, the background was filled with the loud sounds of a DJ and the cheers of a crowd.
Ning Chu’s heart sank; this was the worst-case scenario.
This guy really couldn’t resist temptation and had gone to the bar with those twin sisters.
Next, he would get tipsy and end up in a private room at the bar, being seduced by the twins, ultimately succumbing to the combination of alcohol and hormones, starting the journey of no return.
“You… it’s really noisy on your side.”
Even though Ning Chu had already guessed Wen Yang couldn’t hold onto his virginity under the temptation of numerous girls, thinking about all his week’s efforts going down the drain made his mood plummet even lower.
“I’m at the bar, it’s so loud my ears are hurting. I didn’t notice my phone before, just stepped outside now,” Wen Yang’s voice remained deep and hoarse as usual, magnetic and orderly as he complained, “The drinks here are really expensive; I haven’t dared to have a single sip, feels like I’m serving time in a bar.”
“Eh?”
You mean you didn’t drink?! So that means you haven’t been completely devoured yet?
“Why did you call me?”
“I… I just wanted to ask where you went and see if you could bring my clothes back when you come upstairs.” Ning Chu quickly found an excuse, but after a long pause, cautiously asked, “When are you coming back?”
“Now, I’m waiting for a ride outside the bar.”
“Really?!” The joy made him raise his voice uncontrollably, “Then what about the girls you came with? You’re just leaving them?”
Wen Yang paused, looking a bit embarrassed, stammering as he explained, “The girls… they wanted to get me drunk; I suspect they’re bar hustlers. I don’t have much money… You know how there’s always news about this kind of stuff recently? I only have a bit over a hundred bucks right now.”
Of course, he couldn’t admit he was too scared, or Ning Chu would definitely mock him.
“Pfft!”
Ning Chu burst out laughing, joy brightening his face.
Although the untouched male lead is awkward, he sure is a coward~
