Chapter 38 038. Choose One
The plots in Small Royal Text are usually ridiculous, but the inspiration either comes from doujin or from experiences in life news.
For example, this time, the triggered plot involved a party hosted by a succubus, aimed at sharing multiple quality men with a few good girlfriends. The party lasted a full day and night, leaving the villain unable to get out of bed for days.
Right! This part of the plot is clearly written for Zhang Shaoqing!
Wen Yang’s plots lean towards love interests, usually consensual or pushing back, full of ambiguous situations, while Zhang Shaoqing’s plots are more absurd, involving stalking, trains, and group activities…
Having stayed in Small Royal Text for a while, their plots really do match their character setups.
Wen Yang has a relatively reserved personality; after experiencing something spicy, he becomes more proactive, but right now, he’s just a small virgin. Zhang Shaoqing, however, was strictly disciplined from childhood, with an outgoing and thrill-seeking personality. After darkening, he completely abandoned legal and moral ethics, but he’s still just a low-key guy right now.
Ning Chu felt a bit lost.
So this time, if he stops Wen Yang from participating in the club activity, would it be considered ruining the plot?
A few days later, military training performance day.
The students marched into the large playground, which gradually filled up with a dense crowd of students.
“I can’t believe it! That’s from the arts campus, right?”
While lost in thought, Ning Chu suddenly heard Zhang Shaoqing’s exclamations. He turned to see rows of handsome guys and beautiful girls filling the playground.
What a surprise, right? Even in a world packed with handsome men and beautiful women, the students from the arts campus stood out.
They had handsome looks of all varieties, stunning as if a hundred flowers were blooming.
The students surrounded the playground in a circle. Onstage, a row of desks and chairs appeared with several school leaders sitting in the sun, under a few sunshades, looking down at a group of new students with kind smiles.
“These idiots know it’s hot, huh? They even figured out how to use umbrellas.” Zhang Shaoqing crossed his arms, muttering, “Training in thirty to forty degrees, and I’m burned to a crisp.”
Ning Chu nodded his head in agreement.
It really is dumb!
But looking at his still fair and tender arms, he pursed his lips and glared at the sun.
What a loser!
He only managed to tan his originally sickly pale skin to a healthy pink. Why not turn him into a bronze color instead? Like Wen Yang’s skin, he’s so manly~
“Sit!”
With a shout from the instructor, Ning Chu plopped down on the ground.
This military training performance was split into a talent show and a demonstration of military training results.
But he had no interest at all, legs closed, hands on his knees, burying his head in the crook of his arm, emanating laziness.
His mind was still thinking about the upcoming villa gathering this weekend; he hardly had the attention to watch any performances.
Once the last few hours of military training ended, it would be weekend time.
Ning Chu was worried that after he pointed out the issues with the club gathering, it would only excite Wen Yang more. He wanted to avoid a repeat of last weekend, when he secretly slipped away for no good reason.
But come on, he’s just a small virgin. Even the twin bartenders couldn’t get to Wen Yang; would he have the guts to join that kind of gathering?
“Ning Chu, Ning Chu.” Zhang Shaoqing suddenly leaned in, grinning from ear to ear, “Are you going out to play this weekend?”
“Aren’t you going home?”
His face darkened abruptly, startling Ning Chu deeply.
This guy’s mood changes too quickly! He was already worried about his darkening, and with that punk-like gloomy face, he looked like he might explode at any moment.
“Just going home for half a day, saying the school has stuff.” Zhang Shaoqing ran his fingers through his blonde hair, and his gloomy face quickly switched back to a grin, teasingly asking Ning Chu, “Wanna go?”
“Where to?”
“That gathering Wen Yang talked about!”
Oh crap! Why are you interested in that?
Ning Chu’s eyes widened in horror as he leaned away from Zhang Shaoqing: “Isn’t that gathering definitely not a proper one?”
“I don’t want to go to a proper one! Seven or eight girls, and one of them is a succubus. Tsk tsk~ and we can bring friends along.”
Seeing that lewd smile, he quickly shook his head: “No, you want to go? You go by yourself, I’m definitely not going.”
His level still hadn’t improved; even if he really felt tempted, he would just be laughed at for joining a gathering like that. Who knows, maybe a situation with a bunch of guys would happen again.
“Ugh~ Coward!”
Zhang Shaoqing turned to find Wen Yang, but Ning Chu quickly pulled him back: “Wen Yang isn’t going either! He told me before!”
“Doesn’t he sound like a wife-controlled man? Did you say he can’t go, and he won’t go?”
“……”
Ning Chu almost cursed but took a few seconds to calm down, advising, “You shouldn’t join the fun either. Isn’t it better to chill together in the dorm playing games?”
“I’m not Wen Yang; why should I listen to you?” Zhang Shaoqing halted his departure, stroking his chin, looking up and down at Ning Chu, then revealed a classic villain smile, “Not going is fine…”
That gaze sent chills down Ning Chu’s spine. He instinctively crossed his arms and frowned in unease.
“How about we hit the bar tonight? I haven’t been in a while.”
This guy! It’s either a group activity or the bar! Can’t he think of any decent place to go?!
“I’m not drinking.”
“Great! If we get drunk, you can carry us back.”
“I’m broke…”
“I’ll treat you!”
Seeing Zhang Shaoqing’s resolute attitude on either going to the bar or the gathering, Ning Chu twitched his mouth and reluctantly agreed to one option: “Fine, the bar?”
It just so happened he had never been to a bar, and curiosity urged him to see if the Small Royal Text bar had bunny girls.
“Tsk tsk, you really can’t stand to see us find love~ first, Wen Yang wanted to date, and you found excuses to stop him. Now, I want to experience a succubus, and you won’t let me.”
“If it weren’t for me, Ling Ling would already…”
Zhang Shaoqing immediately shut his mouth and nodded vigorously: “Well said! I’ll listen to you!”
“No, but in the future, don’t join such obviously problematic gatherings, alright?”
“As if I’ve participated before! I’m just curious,” he rolled his eyes at Ning Chu, “Just think about how thrilling it must be.”
True enough! This guy has strict family rules. He has to call home every night to report, and he must return home every weekend… let alone group activities; he’s probably a virgin too.
Thinking of this, Ning Chu tentatively teased him: “You’re not like Wen Yang, a little virgin too, are you?”
“Hehe.”
Zhang Shaoqing turned and left.
Was that a snub or is he feeling guilty?
Ning Chu watched him in shock, then heard the instructor’s stern voice: “Sit down! Why are you walking around?!”
Seeing him instantly deflate and sit back down, Ning Chu couldn’t help but laugh. He then looked up at the performance in the middle of the playground, noticing that several classes were already displaying their military training achievements.
It wouldn’t be long before it would be his class’s turn.
Ning Chu stretched his legs and moved his muscles, fearing he’d embarrass himself in front of thousands of people.
Just as he started to move a little, his face turned pale, and he pressed a hand to his stomach.
This is… a chill?
Or is it because he stopped the group activity plot?
